Zhao Youyue shifted her focus to reality. Her cultural company had set up a novel website. Then, she posted all the plagiarized works from the source world on this novel website. Then, she began to spend money on advertising.
In the real world where Zhao Youyue was, online novels, or e-reading, were already very developed. Therefore, the market for online novels had basically been divided up. The most famous online novel website was undoubtedly the Qidian novel website. Zhao Youyue was also a super God of Tycoon of the Qidian novel website.
Under such circumstances, Zhao Youyue setting up a novel website and mobile app would be a waste of money in the eyes of industry insiders. It would be an arduous and unrewarding endeavor.
However, as the online novel market grew bigger and bigger, capital entered the market almost at every moment. Therefore, it was very common for small websites to pop up from time to time.
Even for some authors who had bought out their contracts, the emergence of these small websites might make them a small profit.
It could not be helped. The competition on the Qidian novel website was too fierce. Basically, only those who wrote really well could stand out. Ordinary works would naturally be buried. Moreover, on the Qidian website, one had to write 200,000 words to get on the shelves. If it was a flop on the shelves, it would mean that one's previous two months of hard work would be wasted …
Under such circumstances, some old authors who sought stability would, of course, go to the small websites to buy out their contracts. The newly established small websites also needed to collect various manuscripts to fill their library. Of course, they would also buy out the authors who had made some small achievements on the Qidian website at a premium price. Otherwise, why would they open a book on a small website?
Like other new small websites, Zhao Youyue's "Source World Novel Website" would, of course, advertise in the "Gossip World" section of the largest online literature forum.
This was because there were many web novel authors in this forum. Among them, there was no lack of Guru authors. Some Guru authors who claimed to have broken off with the forum were actually still paying attention to this forum. Sometimes, when they saw comments that discredited them, they could not help but put on a sockpuppet to defend themselves. They would even pretend to be low-level haters to attract a wave of passers-by fans. However, these Guru authors who were good at acting were still relatively rare.
True gurus probably spent all their time on writing, not on meaningless forums.
"Gossips in Pugilistic World" could be said to be a place where online literature information was very timely and rich. There were all kinds of battles within and outside the circle, attracting all kinds of onlookers. Therefore, there were of course a lot of experienced readers. Perhaps a lot of online literature with a little connotation had been slowly spread after being read by experienced readers.
Therefore, although there were many vicious haters in this online literature forum, it was undeniable that it was relatively convenient to find books there, especially those controversial books. Basically, they were all worth reading.
Zhao Youyue's "Source World Novel Website" was advertising on this forum. Unlike other novel websites, which needed to attract strong authors or even bad authors to submit their articles, Zhao Youyue's purpose was to let more readers know about this website. As for the authors, it was up to them.
This was because the works of Zhao Youyue's "Source World Novel Website" came from the plagiarists of the "Plagiarism Source World." While they plagiarized in the Source World, showing off, slapping faces, and pursuing fame and profit, their works naturally became Zhao Youyue's resources. This was probably the most useful thing in this "Plagiarism Source World."
Many authors who were waiting for the "Source World Novel Website" to receive their manuscripts finally realized how strange this "Source World Novel Website" was as time went by. This was because some authors could not hold back their curiosity, and asked about the novel website's treatment. In the end, the novel website did not have any intention of buying out their works. They would only give a share of the contract!
This question made the "Source World Novel Website" the biggest joke in this online literature forum. Many experienced readers ridiculed it — —
"This is the first time I've seen such a cold and aloof website. This kind of website has no traffic, no readers at all, and they only give a share of the contract. Those authors who go to this website must be stupid, right?"
"This small website is so stingy. How can it make a name for itself in the increasingly competitive online literature circle? I think it will close down in three months!"
"What kind of lousy Source World Novel Website is this? They're overestimating themselves. They don't even have a famous Godly author. How can they attract readers? It seems like they don't even have a senior editor. Are you sure this novel website is not a joke?"
"This is probably a novel website created by the poorest people. It's like a shell company. I wonder if they're using this method to launder money …"
…
Many authors mocked this new novel website. When other ambitious websites opened, they would either announce that they would spend a lot of money to poach Godly authors with their own fans, or poach those senior editors in the industry, or spend money to poach those authors who were not that famous, but were absolutely capable. In the end, this Source World Novel Website was different. It behaved like a super website, so noble and aloof, as if waiting for the authors to come and lick their boots.
This was simply the biggest joke in the world. However, because it was so strange, it became the laughing stock of the entire online literature forum. Therefore, it unexpectedly further increased its fame.
Zhou Zhipeng was a senior reader, and of course, a failure author who had just entered the online literature circle. He was also a senior forum member of this online literature forum. His pen name was "Da Peng Niao". He did not know why, but he suddenly went to the newly opened "Source World Novel Website" to take a look. It was not that he had any expectations for the books in the novel website, but he wanted to see if any authors would really sign a contract with the website and write their books on it.
According to Zhou Zhipeng's thoughts, perhaps the current novel website was still using pirated books from other websites to fill up its library. Otherwise, if a new website had no authors, how could there be books?
However, when he entered the website, he was attracted by the other party's very good website UI design. It was obviously a small website, but it looked quite cool. It was not like a website that was obviously a big website, but the page looked like a pirated website for women.
Then he also found that there were hundreds of works that were being updated on this website!
Zhou Zhipeng could not help but have a strong curiosity. He personally liked works that were based on history, so he decided to click on a book with a good title and try to read it. He only hoped that it was not poisonous.
