Competition in the industry is inevitable. Price wars are also a means of competition, but there is still a certain scope for this price war. Prices are raised indiscriminately for the sake of competition, and no one will feel good after the price goes up.

Today you can give me one hand, another day I can give you several hands, when is the time for retribution!

Therefore, when the publishing industry found out that the cooperation between Zhichun Zhigang and Manjinghua Publishing Company was unbreakable and there was no opportunity for them to take advantage of it, they could only envy and hate with envy.

Now that both publishing companies are interested in the traditional Chinese publishing copyright of "Full-time Master", it will be much easier to solve the matter, anyway, the higher price gets it!

Li Chungang wanted the royalties not to be bought out. In Lin Meng's opinion, this was completely reasonable and the best way to maximize profits, so he asked, "What is your psychological price for the royalties, boss?" ?”

Without hesitation, Li Chungang said: "The royalty rate of 15%-18% is my psychological price. In the end, it depends on which of the two publishing companies offers a higher price. If any company offers a higher price than my heart If it is high, I am also very happy."

The royalty rate of 15%-18% can be said to be the absolute top price in the online literature publishing industry, and it is completely worthy of Li Chungang's current status in the Internet literature industry. Publishing companies in the Bay Area are cooperating, but they are embarrassed to open their mouths in one breath.

If the cooperation effect this time is good, next time Wanwan's publishing company wants to purchase the traditional Chinese publishing copyright of its own works, the royalty rate will increase slightly, and the specific increase will be temporary. It's hard to say, but at least 20% must be started.

He thought he was worth the price!

"Don't worry, leave it to me. This time, I will definitely let Wanwan's publishing house bleed!" Lin Meng didn't talk nonsense. After getting the price in Li Chungang's heart, he hung up the phone and switched to contact each other. Two Wanwan Publishing companies intending to compete for traditional Chinese copyrights have gone.

The reason why we have separate contacts instead of one contact is a small trick, to make both parties unable to guess the other party's real quotation. Already at a disadvantage.

Chapter 320

Even if there is not much free time every day, even if he has become a platinum author, Li Chungang still maintains the habit of reading books every day, taking the essence from other people's works and discarding the dross to learn useful writing skills. Some people think that this line of work is purely gifted by the gods, but he doesn't think so at all.

It doesn't matter what you think or do, anyway, Li Chungang is quite happy to read some new books.Because the web market is always changing and updating, if you want to keep up with the latest trends in the market, you have to read some new books. You can often find a lot of inspiration from these new books, especially the works of some new authors. Because it is the first time to write an online article, it is full of unconstrained imagination and unique aura.

He had just plugged his phone into the charging cable on the bedside table and was about to close his eyes and fall asleep when there was a "ding dong" and someone suddenly sent him a message at this moment.

Li Chungang frowned slightly and was a little displeased. Whoever was disturbed before going to bed would not be in a good mood. He took the phone again and looked at it. It was a stranger who had not added friends. talk about him-

A branch of pear blossom pressed the crabapple: "Master Chungang, did you ask me to borrow money just now?"

"??? [Nick Yang's question mark face].JPG" Li Chungang looked at a loss. Is there another Li Chungang in this world.

borrow money?Borrow what money?When did he get so down that he needed to borrow money from other people?Is the seven or eight billion in the bank card balance fake?

and many more!

A flash of light flashed in Li Chungang's mind as if he suddenly remembered something, and quickly typed: "I have never asked anyone to borrow money! Could it be that someone is asking you to borrow money in my name?"

The other party's reply was also very quick: "Well, yes, just now a person whose account avatar signature and other information looks almost exactly like yours suddenly chatted with me privately, saying that the daily limit of the bank card is already full. , let me transfer him [-] for an emergency. Because I saw that the other party was chatting with me privately in the author group, I didn't think much about transferring the money directly to the other party.

It wasn't until I finished the transfer that I realized that something was wrong!The most important point is that Chun Gang is a platinum master, no matter how urgent it is, he will not be short of the 5000 yuan. After thinking of this level, I immediately opened the button group and looked, and I found it. A button that is almost identical except for a different number, I am now almost sure that I have been duped! "

After finishing speaking, in order to prove that his words were more convincing, a branch of pear blossom pressing Begonia sent eight or nine screenshots in a row, from this imitation of Li Chungang's personal information to the screenshots of chat records, etc... Click on these Looking at the screenshots, especially the imitation made by the other party with reference to Li Chungang's personal buttons, it is true that whether it is the profile picture, signature or personal information, they are all consistent with his buttons.

Li Chungang's attitude is a bit bursting at this time, this kind of guy who deserves a thousand knives dares to imitate Lao Tzu's name to cheat other authors of money, the most important thing is that the other party has mixed into their contracted author group before proceeding Lie, in other words, this person must also be a signed author!

In this way, it is not impossible to get back the money cheated by the other party.

What really made him worry a little bit was that now there is only one sufferer called "A Pear Blossom Pressing the Begonia", and the matter is not too serious. How many authors have been found to cheat in their own name, and how many authors have been deceived because they didn't think much about the four words "Zhi Chun Zhi Gang".

The matter of thousands of dollars is not a big deal to Li Chungang. The most annoying thing is that the other party is using his reputation to borrow money from other authors to cheat, which is equivalent to ruining his reputation. That's the most disgusting thing.

Quickly replied to the unknown author: "Wait a minute, I'm logging into Koukou with my mobile phone, it's not convenient to type and the reply speed is slow, I'll get up and turn on the computer to learn more about this matter, and finally read It depends on how to deal with it. In any case, you can rest assured that the money cheated by the other party will never be forgotten so easily, even if I can't get it back in the end, I will personally return the money to you!"

Damn it, when did I, a platinum master with an annual income of nine or ten figures, get so down that I needed to find another place to urgently need 5000 yuan?What an international joke, this is simply a great personal insult to him!

A branch of pear blossom pressed Begonia: "There is no need for Chun Gang to return the money to me. In the final analysis, I was too careless, because the other party came to me in the group, so I subconsciously thought that there would be no problem." But I won't let this matter be so simple. Since the other party can lurk in this group, it must be an author who has signed a contract. In this case, the other party's personal information will definitely be left on Longteng. With a little time and effort, I believe that the other party will be caught!"

The idea of ​​"a branch of pear blossom crushing a crabapple" can be said to coincide with Li Chungang's idea. What is the biggest factor for the other party to successfully defraud other people? It is nothing more than being in the official signing group of Longteng with Li Chungang , the vast majority of people rarely turn off the private chat function of members in the group, so when the other party comes to the door, the chat window shows that the other party came to the door from the contracted author group, and then various personal information It matches the signature and so on, so naturally there is no doubt about him, and he directly chooses to trust the other party, so that he is succeeded by the other party.

There are traces to follow, at least this matter still has a chance to be resolved.

Thinking of this, Li Chungang breathed a sigh of relief, but when he thought that the other party actually copied his own information to deceive others, he immediately became angry, and said to this "a branch of pear blossom pressing a crabapple", "You save all the screenshots and evidence that you have saved. Send me a reservation, no matter what, let everyone know about it, so as to avoid the possibility of being deceived again!"

"Oh, okay!" The deceived author hastily packed and compressed all the original images of the evidence that he had screenshotted into a .rar compressed file and sent it over.

Li Chungang has roughly figured out how to deal with this matter in his heart. First of all, the first point is naturally to stop the same thing from happening again, so he selected a few of the other party's edited and identical button information from these screenshots of evidence. After making a comparison chart with my own real information, the second step is to simply edit a paragraph to remind everyone, and then send it to each author group that has its own existence——

Chapter 321 Skynet is sparse but not leaking

"I received a report that someone in the group referred to my information and modified my personal information to make it exactly the same as my name. Please don't believe it! I solemnly declare: I will not borrow money from you under any excuse or name. Yes, no matter how much you borrow or how little you borrow! In addition, the deduction information of this scammer is exposed here. As far as I know, the other party should have spread the net and carried out a large-scale deception. If someone is really deceived by him And the author who was deceived, please contact me in private as soon as possible, I will definitely pursue this matter to the end, please rest assured! 【Screenshot】.JPG【Screenshot】.JPG【Screenshot】.JPG"

After copying and pasting the whole paragraph of content, I posted it at least three times in every group. Now I suddenly recalled that Li Chungang had a little bit of celebration for joining the Longteng signed author group. There is a group of signed writers of Longteng Suspense and a group of signed authors of fantasy, and finally there is a group of signed authors of Natto with a group of only over five hundred. This time, it was the Longteng Xuanxuan contracted author group whose number had already reached the upper limit of 2000.

Different from when he joined the group of suspenseful contracted authors, he was still a pink and pink cute new author. Afterwards, there will often be nonsense with the authors in the group, except that they rarely talk about the content of online articles. After all, everyone has their own writing habits. You can learn writing skills, but you can’t learn from others. The way of writing, since it is useless, why bother talking.

On the contrary, the fanciful contracted author group that was added later, from the day the head of the editorial team of Longteng Xuanxuan pulled him into the group, almost never said a word. Red envelopes, right? After that, it became a veritable "ten thousand years diving party" in the group, and the kind who never peeped at the screen or checked the chat history.

Even in the Great Nervous Club, a group that brings together all the great writers in Longteng, Li Chungang seldom goes to the water group and reads the chat records of other authors, let alone this group of contracted authors who can be said to be irrelevant. Well, perhaps it is precisely because of this that the scammers took advantage of this after learning the news and chose to attack in this group.

Originally, with the attitude of giving it a try, Li Chungang copied the scammer's button number, pasted it on the group member lists of the other two author groups, and then searched——

The result he got instantly made him unable to hold back his rage!

Good guy, I don’t know if I don’t search. I was startled when I searched, only to find out that this liar actually exists in all three groups, and it can be seen that things are far from as simple as Li Chungang thought, and the other party is not at all. It was a deceitful crime that was committed by accident, but a planned, premeditated and carefully prepared fraudulent crime!

It can be said that it is a coincidence that this liar and Li Chungang are both in the Xuanxuan author group; it can also be said that it is a coincidence that this liar and Li Chungang are both in the Suspense author group; but this liar and Li Chungang are also in the Natto author group Is it a coincidence?

Are there really so many coincidences in this world? !Believe it or not, at least Li Chungang absolutely does not believe it. The other party can find himself in only three groups so accurately. Obviously, he must have figured out and understood all the information from somewhere before. Finally, in the To ensure everything is safe, he chose a time when he had already gone to sleep with a high probability, and other deceived people could not prove it to cheat!

"Drip drip"

"Drip drip"

Not long after this message was sent to remind other authors in the signing group not to be deceived, Li Chungang’s Koukou backstage began to blare the notification sound, and the mouse was lightly placed on the blinking icon in the lower right corner——

In just a few minutes, more than a dozen authors have come to the door.

"Brother Chungang, is it really not you who asked me to borrow money just now? I don't know if I transferred 3000 yuan to the other party directly. What should I do now? Can I still get it back?"

"Brother Chungang, I should have been cheated of [-] yuan. The other party originally said that they needed [-] yuan urgently. I just sent out the manuscript fee last month, and there is only so much I can use. I transferred it to the liar. My God!"

"God Chungang, I..."

I thought the matter was not that serious, but now it seems that the reality is far more serious than what Li Chungang expected in his heart. There are more and more authors who come to tell the story of being deceived by private chatting, and this liar is quite Professional, I am proficient in the art of borrowing money. The various reasons for borrowing money are different from everyone, and the amount of borrowing is also completely inconsistent. It can be said that it is completely dependent on the bowl to eat up.

It can range from three to five thousand, and as many as ten thousand and several thousand!

The amount of all the cheated authors calculated now is about to exceed 10 yuan. Seeing this, Li Chungang is also dumbfounded. I don’t know whether he should be happy that he has such a good reputation in the eyes of the authors in the industry. Be able to make the other party believe and be willing to give generously; it should be said that these authors are too naive and easy to deceive. When you see that the other party is found in the contracted author group, and the personal information and data are also correct, you will believe the other party. up.

Of course, he was just thinking in his own mind, the most important thing to do at this time is to find out the true identity of this liar and pursue the legal responsibility of this liar, instead of burying these authors here for being too easy to cheat.

Domestic online fraud is very frequent, the cost of crime is low, and it is difficult to track and find clues, which has caused these online fraudsters to be so rampant all the time!

After Li Chungang's reminder message swiped the screen of the three groups, the night owls who hadn't slept in the three groups suddenly exploded:

"Damn, is there such a person in the group?"

"Really, liars have sneaked into the group of contracted authors? It seems that they are still educated fraudsters."

"Hearing Chungang's big tone, it seems that someone in the group has been deceived. Who were deceived?"

"It seems that I also received the news that this guy wants to borrow money, but the other person asked for five thousand. I looked at the three-digit bank card balance left, and I was very embarrassed to decline the other party. "

"Pfft——I'm sorry, I couldn't help it! In such a serious atmosphere, how did you manage to be so serious and funny, because you didn't have any money to lend out and managed to avoid being cheated, you are really Tihua The show!"

"..."

Chapter 322 The Deathly Blessing

"I OO you XX, I [beep——] [beep——] you [beep——] [beep——]"

Seeing that the cheating was exposed and the Sima liar was still brazenly licking his face and staying in the group, Li Chungang was not polite, and directly chatting with this Sima liar in private was just insulting!The fragrant content is automatically blocked and silenced in order to greatly affect civilization.

To deal with maggots in this kind of society, there is absolutely no need to talk about civilized qualities, just type what you think in your heart and spray it out, and at the very least you have to greet the other party’s family. Such a thing was born, if I knew it was such a raw piece of char siu, it would be better than giving birth to a liar!

Anyway, no matter how slow he was, the scammer clearly realized that he was exposed at this moment, so he quit the group decisively, and then ticked the box that does not allow strangers to add friends in the button security settings.

"Hehe, naive! Do you think that if you quit the group like this, I will have nothing to do with you? How dare you come to the author signing group to cheat and think about getting out of your body, what a fool's dream!" Li Chungang, who was sitting in front of the computer in the middle of the night, sneered disdainfully. smile.Generally speaking, this kind of online fraud can be divided into two general situations——

One is the result of having a brain twitch and impulsiveness without thinking clearly about what to think after cheating; the other is a planned, premeditated, and coordinated team-style fraud!

Click on the other party's personal information card, there is a report option in the upper right corner of the user page, and there is an option of "being cheated out of money". After clicking in, fill in some necessary items, and finally report The before and after of the whole incident and the retained screenshots are submitted together.

During this period of time, all parts of the country are promoting the crackdown on all kinds of illegal activities and strictly grasping all kinds of online fraud. Koukou here also implements an absolutely zero-tolerance attitude towards this kind of fraudulent behavior using their social software, as long as it is If a user reports and uploads real material evidence, the custody will be dealt with one at a time, and no tolerance will be given!

"It still doesn't feel safe!"

Li Chungang always felt that the other party's imitation of his own information to cheat was definitely not an accidental incident of impulsive brains, especially seeing the presence of the other party in the three groups at the same time further confirmed his thoughts. ...

Worried that the other party is not only satisfied with lurking in various author groups to cheat, but "spreads the net widely, catches more fish, and chooses the foolish to deceive."Even in the situation where everyone does not know each other in the author group, there are so many authors who can be deceived. In other words, among the various reader groups who regard "Zhi Chun Zhi Gang" as their idols, they dare not imagined.

The main reason is that it's a bit too late now, it's already almost one o'clock in the morning, and if you want to catch this guy cheating in the author group, you still need Long Teng to come forward.Although Li Chungang is well-known in the Internet literature circle, it may be a bit difficult to connect with a behemoth such as the Penguin Empire, and he will not receive much attention.

It would have been much easier if Longteng Company had negotiated with Penguin Empire in person and wanted to check the various certification information that the scammer had kept!

"Tonight at about 1:13 in the morning, in the fantasy contracted author group, there are scammers pretending to be my name to deceive other authors. The amount of fraud is as high as [-]. The following is the information I collected from each deceived author and sent to you. Natto, after you see it, ask Brilliance how to deal with it, if there is anything that needs cooperation, please contact me as soon as possible!"

"Tonight at about 1:13 in the morning, in the fantasy contracted author group, there are scammers pretending to be my name to deceive other authors. The amount of fraud is as high as [-]. The following is the information I collected from each deceived author and sent to you. Senior sister, after you see it, ask to publicize this matter on all the publicity channels under the name of the studio, especially to warn readers!"

After sending two similar messages to editor Natto and senior sister Lin Meng respectively, Li Chungang planned to finally "publicize" this matter on his personal Weibo. It would be best if the location is well known to everyone.

"Tonight at about 1:13 in the morning, there are scammers pretending to be my name to deceive other authors in the fantasy contracted author group. The current statistics show that the amount of fraud is as high as [-]. In the end, I will reiterate here: I will not use it Borrowing money from anyone in any name! All authors, readers, and friends, please wake up and don’t be deceived again.”

Below this microblog, I attach the button message imitated by Sima liar, so that more people who are filled with righteous indignation can join the army of reporting.

After all, Li Chungang is also a Weibo "celebrity" who is not inferior to some big stars in terms of the number of fans. A Weibo distributed in the early hours of the morning can quickly receive various replies——

"Let me make a sample for everyone first, and congratulate the liar on his 20-year-old life!"

"Liars are really bad."

"Then I have no choice but to wish the liar can touch the car intimately with his body when he goes out."

"You guys' blessings are too gentle, you should imitate me and directly wish the liar a spiral explosion and ascend to heaven!"

"I am proficient in various hacking techniques. If you want to have any ideas, you can private message me from the background at any time. Everyone like this kind of liar will be punished!"

"Wait for the follow-up of this matter, depending on the situation, the scammer is lurking in the group of contracted authors of Longteng to defraud. I think Longteng also needs to bear a certain responsibility in this matter, so let's wait for the follow-up development of this matter, please don't worry about it." Just don't let these scammers get away with it."

"..."

The attitude of the whole network towards this kind of scammers maintains a high degree of hatred, and many readers who saw Li Chungang's Weibo couldn't help but feel lucky. If they didn't see this clarifying Weibo content, maybe one day there will be one. When a person whose personal information is exactly the same as that of Zhichun Zhigang comes to ask for a loan, it is really possible to lose vigilance and be deceived.

Anyone with an online IQ understands how a person with a monthly income of tens of millions and an annual income of more than ten figures can be short of thousands of dollars and ask them to borrow money! ?The onlookers can always tell, they are afraid that when they become the "protagonist" of the story, their brains will not be able to turn around, their IQ will not be online, and they will be fooled by other professional liars in a few words.

Once this incident was exposed, it aroused widespread support from Weibo fans, but fortunately, the victims of being deceived are limited to the author group so far, and no readers have been deceived so far. This should be regarded as a blessing in misfortune .I hope that after this incident is exposed, no matter who you are, you will be more vigilant and don't trust anyone on the Internet!

Chapter 323

"There should be nothing missing..."

I waited for another half an hour until two o'clock in the morning, but I still didn't see the follow-up, and the author's bitter master sent a private message to himself. Presumably, there are only so many of these night owl authors who have not slept, or they have not yet been deceived. It was found that An Ran had gone to sleep.

Confirm again and again that all the things that can be done in the middle of the night have been done, and the rest can only be dealt with after Natto gets up the next day and reads the message he left. It is possible to find out who this crook really is and bring him to justice.

Holding the idea that he must not let this hateful liar go, Li Chungang finally fell under the constant fatigue.

Question: What's the first thing you do when you wake up in the morning and open your eyes?

If you put this question ten years ago, more than 90.00% of the answers would tell you that the first thing you should do is to brush your teeth and wash your face; but now if you ask ten people, nine out of ten people will tell you: the first thing to do when you wake up is of course to turn on your phone ah!

The main thing is to see if someone sends me a message while sleeping; if there is something urgent that needs to be dealt with urgently.

As soon as I opened WeChat, I saw the message Li Chungang sent to her, and then I looked up the time. The time of the message at the top of the time turned out to be between one o'clock and two o'clock in the morning. When I came back to my soul, I subconsciously thought that it would not be easy for the other party to leave me a message without sleeping in the middle of the night.

Zhichun Zhigang: "Tonight at about 1:13 in the morning, there are scammers pretending to be my name in the fantasy contracted author group to defraud other authors, and the amount of fraud is as high as [-]..."

It was a long passage that took Natto a little time to read in detail. When she saw the front, her sleepy expression had long since disappeared, replaced by a dignified expression. No matter where it was, such a fraud It is impossible for the event to be treated simply, especially after seeing that this fraud not only involves the use of the name of the well-known platinum author Zhichun Zhigang, but also because the group of contracted fantasy authors that happened to Longteng involved their Longteng company. There is an inescapable responsibility.

Another one is pretty good. After carefully reading the content of the text, some evidence screenshots sent by Li Chungang below, when Natto saw that this liar actually existed in three contracted author groups that belonged to Longteng, not to mention, one of the groups It was still when she created the Natto contracted author group by herself...

The expression on his face was so gloomy that it was about to drip water!

"This is a planned and premeditated gang crime!"

This is the subconscious subconscious thought of Natto after reading the ins and outs of the whole incident sent by Li Chungang. Just as Li Chungang would think so, she is also very sure that it is absolutely impossible for so many coincidences to exist at the same time in this world. Eliminate the factor of coincidence, then the remaining answer could not be more obvious.
