"The Smiling, The Proud Wanderer" was first published on Waves Literature website in May of this year. In the absence of a contract or recommendation, it gradually accumulated considerable popularity by relying on the word-of-mouth of readers.
Many readers spontaneously promoted this rare martial arts book in forums and QQ groups. "The Smiling, The Proud Wanderer" fans have set up more than a dozen groups, which has a certain influence in the niche category of online literature.
But this book is obviously a physical book, which is very different from the current mainstream novels on the Internet. Therefore, the search volume on the Internet is not high, and it is in a state of tepid popularity.
As of October, the index of "The Smiling, The Proud Wanderer" on the search list of the largest domestic search engine, Flash search, is more than 20,000, ranking very low in the same type of search, far from the top 100.
However, when Lu Chen and Chen Fei'er Studio announced that they had signed the copyright of "The Smiling, The Proud Wanderer" and prepared to shoot a TV series next year, this long martial arts novel instantly became popular on the Internet!
By 11 o'clock in the evening, the keywords of Flash search had been searched more than 5 million times, and soon it was on the hot search list on the homepage of Flash search.
And these search traffic, most of it was directed to Waves Literature.
In the face of the surging IP calls, the website of Waves Literature felt that it was a dog's day.
Of course, a large increase in traffic is a good thing. At present, the competition in domestic online literature is very fierce. The popularity of IP has created one legend after another. The value of popular and best-selling online novels is getting higher and higher. In order to win this lucrative market, the website is racking its brains to promote and market.
In the absence of any advance preparation, so many netizens were attracted. It was like a big pie falling from the sky, and it felt a little incredible.
But the biggest problem is that although "The Smiling, The Proud Wanderer" was first published on Waves Literature, it has not been signed by the website. All of its copyright has always been firmly in the hands of the author.
The author can sell the copyright to whoever he wants. Waves Literature can only look at it and drool, but it can't get any benefits.
On the other hand, if this book has been signed to Waves Literature, and Lu Chen and Chen Fei'er Studio want to buy the copyright, it is impossible without a lot of money. Who doesn't know the ability of these two to make TV series?
Physical publishing, film and television adaptation, animation, games and movies...
Looking at a big piece of fat meat in front of their eyes, but they can only touch the smell of oil, how can they not be depressed?
The website management is depressed, and they have to vent their anger on the staff below them. The responsible editor and the chief editor have to suffer.
How can a work that Lu Chen and Chen Fei'er Be bad? Moreover, the performance of this book on the website itself was very good. He should have paid a price to buy it out in the first place. He wouldn't have missed such a good opportunity.
It should be paid to buy it at the Waves Literature Book.
In fact, the editor was really wronged. When Lu Chen released "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" on Inspur Books, the purpose was only to test the response of readers, and he never thought of giving up the publishing rights.
Lu Chen didn't care about the money from the subscription fee. The Smiling, Proud Wanderer was the test of his Wuxia IP plan. All the copyrights should be firmly in his hands!
How could the editor and chief editor of Waves Reading not feel wronged?
It was a pity that even they didn't know the details. Because of them, they really missed a popular IP novel. Especially on the second day, the number of collections of The Smiling, The Proud Wanderer on Waves surged from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands. They all regretted that they had given away the book to someone else!
Of course, reading on Waves was not without its benefits. At least there were many fans who were attracted by its fame. Most of the readers of The Smiling, Proud Wanderer were new users. The positive benefits brought to the website could not be underestimated.
The online version of this book had a word count of 500,000, which was equivalent to two and a half volumes of content. All of it was free to read, so it was naturally very attractive to readers.
It was the first time that The Smiling, The Proud Martial Artist appeared in the eyes of the public. As time went by, its reputation and reputation would spread more and more.
At the same time, the physical book of The Smiling, The Proud Wanderer was about to go on sale. With enough time to brew, the TV series scheduled to start shooting next year was bound to attract a lot of attention.
This was the prelude to Lu Chen's great Wuxia IP plan!
"Are you satisfied now?"
On the second day after the announcement, Chen Fei 'er talked to Lu Chen on the phone. She laughed and said, "You won't blame me for stealing Sister Gegentana's signature, right?"
Lu Chen smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't blame you in the first place."
"I heard that Sister Lu Xi has a problem with that …"
Chen Fei 'er was well-informed. She explained, "Actually, it was my fault. I didn't expect that posting the video of you and Gegentana on the blog would cause such a big reaction. I was afraid that it would affect her life, so I signed Gegentana directly."
Because of the video recorded by Chen Fei 'er, Gegentana unexpectedly became an Internet celebrity. In today's entertainment industry, she was bound to become a money tree in the eyes of some people. Even if she was in the boundless Mongolian grassland, people would still find her.
With Gegentana's innocence and kindness, it was too easy for her to lose herself in the strange and dazzling entertainment industry.
Chen Fei 'er didn't want to ruin this beautiful and lovely Mongolian girl because of a moment of quickness, so she signed her to her own studio to prevent other people from thinking about it.
In fact, the contract Chen Fei 'er signed with Gegentana was very loose. If Gegentana didn't want to, she could still live a carefree life on the grassland.
If she wanted to see how wonderful the outside world was and wanted to appear on TV, then Chen Fei 'er's network was enough to protect her, so that she didn't need to contact the dark side of the circle.
This was Chen Fei 'er's responsibility and Gegentana's luck!
Understanding Chen Fei 'er's good intentions, Lu Chen was very touched. His girlfriend had a gentle and delicate heart, which was also his luck.
"Actually, sister …"
"I know!"
Chen Fei 'er smiled and interrupted his explanation. "Sister Lu Xi definitely isn't angry, and I have already called her, so the studio issued an announcement at the same time."
Lu Chen was convinced. "You guys colluded!"
Chen Fei 'er smiled. "You are so busy with work, so you don't need to manage a lot of things yourself. Just take control of the overall situation."
"By the way, I have good news for you!"
Lu Chen's attention was immediately diverted. "What good news?"
