Qin Huaidong was still in a daze, having smoothly joined the company.
This newly established novel website was still a makeshift affair, even though their office was temporarily located at the parent company.
But this was too casual, wasn't it?
Helpless, he had no choice but to accept it for now, as he had no other job options.
The website had already been set up yesterday.
And it had successfully obtained the operating license, now all that was lacking was a large number of novels to fill the library.
Today, his main task was to go to the author groups of various editors and recruit those frustrated authors.
Regardless of their skill level.
In the early stages, the task Li Yun gave him was all about guaranteed minimums, even for newcomers, he would give the most basic guaranteed minimums.
Or rather, Li Yun planned to give the most basic guaranteed minimum to every author who signed with the website.
After that, all the website promotion and other things would be handled by him alone, without the need for these editors to worry about it.
"As expected of the big boss, directly using [Yunhai]'s domestic traffic to promote the novel website?" This kind of operation method can currently only be done by [Yunhai] in the whole country.
Even the leading giant in the industry, Qidian Novel Network, cannot do this.
*
In the ordinary author group of Feilu Huima.
At this time, a large number of unsuccessful authors were chatting idly in the group.
Some were lamenting the failure of their new books, some were showing off their achievements from yesterday, and some were talking about new themes.
This was a large group of 1500 people.
It is said that Huima has several such large groups, and of course, there is also a legendary elite group.
As an industry insider, Qin Huaidong naturally knew what the so-called elite group was.
That is, a group chat where those so-called authors with a monthly income of over ten thousand gather.
In short, it is a place where the top talents in the online literature world gather.
These people are Huima's treasures, each one is cherished, and they are given special treatment.
Qin Huaidong looked at the content of the chat in the group and couldn't help but curl his lips.
He could also give special treatment.
It's just that Tudou Novel Network doesn't need these at all.
In the early stage, he only needed to recruit some unsuccessful authors according to Li Yun's requirements and give them limited guaranteed minimums.
This would attract a large number of people to fill the library.
The so-called limited guaranteed minimum is determined according to the retention rate of the work.
The guaranteed minimum word count is 1 million words to complete.
Starting from the 100,000-word debut, the payment per thousand words is calculated, and Li Yun offered a guaranteed minimum of 30 yuan per thousand words to buy authors to join.
Before 100,000 words, all the author's income is divided 5:5 with the platform, and gifts are divided 7:3, and the payment is made on the second Monday of each month.
After 100,000 words, the traffic share is calculated based on the reading data.
And before the official operation of the website, Li Yun also pulled a lot of advertisers and merchants who needed to advertise, and officially entered the novel website.
With Li Yun's current reputation, there are simply too many merchants who want to place advertisements on the novel website.
After all, the novel reader group is still huge.
And it covers all age groups.
The operation mode is similar to the foreign persimmon in the previous life, but there is no seven-day verification period.
In order to facilitate new authors to code, Li Yun also asked people to specially design a mobile writer assistant APP.
This mobile writer assistant APP will be continuously updated.
All the functions that should be available in the future will be launched.
But that is not what he should worry about, there are professional talents to do this.
Not long after Qin Huaidong entered the group, he began to chat with the unsuccessful authors in the group.
After sending a few red envelopes, he became familiar with the authors inside.
After Huima went to give special treatment to the authors in the elite group.
He began to recruit people.
First, he guided these unsuccessful authors to discover the new website, Tudou Novel Network.
Then, after arousing their curiosity.
He created a separate WeChat group and pulled them into the WeChat group one by one.
Then, he revealed his identity in the WeChat group and informed them of the welfare benefits of the new website.
As he expected.
The guaranteed minimum for writing a new book, and the basic guarantee of being able to write 1 million words, aroused the interest of everyone.
[Old Qin, can you really write 1 million words?]
[Of course, I am the editor-in-chief, this is the promise made by the big boss above, and it is effective for all new authors who come to Tudou Novel Network.]
[Hiss~ this website is too powerful, isn't it? All newcomers are given a guaranteed minimum, isn't this a money-scattering boy in the online literature world?]
[Don't be too happy too early, it's not easy to write 1 million words, you can't water it, if you are reported by readers, after the novel is removed from the shelves, you will get nothing]
Qin Huaidong quickly typed: [Yes, he is right, your grades can be bad, but you can't water, plagiarize, involve pornography, gambling, drugs, and politics, and here, one ID card can only bind one account, and if the account is blacklisted, it's over]
[Is it so strict?]
[Yes, here we will mainly accept Xiaobaiwen in the future, of course, traditional literary themes are also accepted, but whether it can attract readers is another matter]
[The website mainly supports Xiaobaiwen?]
[To be precise, it is a Feilu-style novel]
The group chat was full of discussions, Qin Huaidong chatted for a while and then sent the link of the novel website into the WeChat group.
Then he began to look for new targets.
The early operation mode of the novel website is basically like this.
In addition to scattering money to fill the library, there is only digging great authors to settle in the website.
After all, great authors bring their own traffic and have a fixed fan base.
However, Li Yun didn't let him dig great authors for the time being, but let him recruit a group of unsuccessful authors to enter the website to fill the website library first.
Both male and female authors are needed, so he went to find some female authors.
Which website has more female authors gathered these days?
Naturally, it is Jinjiang.
And an inconspicuous China Sky Network.
That website may not be very famous, but there are many frustrated female authors.
He plans to pull a group over here and give them fixed themes to write guaranteed minimums.
What theme?
Overbearing President XXX and the like.
Although there are already many of this theme on the market, there are not many that have really become popular yet.
When Li Yun handed this theme to him, he said that it had already begun to have a trend of becoming popular in Jinjiang.
Let him find some people to write and see.
As for the male frequency themes, he gave themes such as master descending the mountain, wry-mouthed dragon king, and the return of the god of war.
The authors he pulls will basically write some of these contents at that time.
Of course, for authors who come by themselves, he will not give themes, just give them the first signing guarantee.
After all, other novel themes on the website also need to be filled, don't they?
Other editors who joined the company are also doing this today, mainly recruiting people to write books on the website.
It can be said that this group of authors will eat the first crab meat in the era of free novels.
