"Tsk tsk, amazing."
Feeling a little excited, Chen Yu clicked on Mingyue's blog.
Sure enough, "Things in the Ming Dynasty", which was popular in China in his previous life, was being serialized on the blog.
Although only a dozen chapters had been serialized so far, the number of hits had exceeded three million.
"It's so good. It's the first time I've seen such an interesting history."
"I always thought that history was serious. Now it seems that history is really fun."
"Mingyue was a genius. After reading your blog, I'm now very interested in the history of the Ming Dynasty."
"Hurry up and update."
"Yes, urge me to update …"
He looked at the comment section.
Good.
In addition to countless wonderful comments, there were more people urging him to update.
"Xuelin, come to the office."
Chen Yu used the internal phone and called Li Xuelin.
A few minutes later, Li Xuelin came to Chen Yu's office.
"Xuelin, not bad. Our blog is popular."
Chen Yu said that Li Xuelin did a good job.
Li Xuelin was embarrassed. He said that he didn't do anything. He didn't know how Mingyue's blog became popular. Chen Yu, on the other hand, smiled and continued praising her from time to time. "No matter what, the fact that there are so many views and comments is a result of your hard work. By the way, why didn't you tell me earlier? "
If Chen Yu hadn't just written a blog entry, he wouldn't have known that the blog was so popular.
"Tell me about the blog's current data."
Mingyue's blog alone couldn't fully explain the popularity of the blog.
Chen Yu wanted to take a more realistic look at the blog's data.
For example, the number of blogs.
The total number of blog views and so on.
Otherwise, it would be useless if only Mingyue's blog became popular.
If the blog became popular, it had to drive a series of other blogs.
"Boss Chen, at present, the number of blogs opened is 570,000, and the total number of hits has exceeded 300 million. In addition, the speed of our blog opening has always been increasing … But because the base was small before, the total number of blogs opened is not very many. We estimate that the total number of blogs will exceed two million in a month. "
The data was not as popular as the blog in his previous life.
However, this was just the beginning.
Chen Yu was very satisfied with this data.
"Other than Mingyue's blog, what other popular blogs are there?"
"Back then, Mingyue's blog was the benchmark. Although apart from Mingyue's blog, there are hundreds of blogs that are relatively popular, they are still far from Mingyue's blog. We are currently increasing our investment in this area and preparing to introduce more high-quality content."
Chen Yu nodded. "Xuelin, you're right. The most important thing about a blog is its content. Without quality content, a blog would be useless. However, since Mingyue has already become the benchmark back then, we should do our best to promote this benchmark. We have to let everyone know that there was a person called Ming Yue back then, and there was a work about the Ming Dynasty. "
"Yes, Boss Chen. I'm going to recommend Mingyue's blog right away. Boss Chen, can you ask the headquarters of the group to give you some resources to help with the recommendation? "
"Haha, Xuelin, you're still eyeing the resources of the head office."
"Boss Chen, we're in a tough spot. Huanyu Gateway was the last department to be established, so it doesn't have much foundation yet. However, our other departments are all number one in the industry. They are all on our side, so we should take care of them. "
"Okay, you can discuss it with Boss Zhang later."
"Yes."
After receiving Chen Yu's approval, Li Xuelin knew that it was basically a success.
If he could not promote this blog with the help of the group's resources and his own portal, he would be too embarrassed to stay in Huanyu Technologies anymore.
"Boss Chen, I'll go back to work."
"Okay."
Chen Yu nodded.
However, just as Li Xuelin was about to leave, Chen Yu called out, "Wait."
"Boss Chen, is there anything else?"
"What's the matter? Mingyue's blog was updated a week ago."
Chen Yu did not look at the date just now, so he did not notice it.
However, when he looked at the date, Chen Yu found that this guy had not updated for a whole seven days.
As a Qidian guru, Chen Yu knew that this kind of break in updates was fatal.
"What's the matter with Mingyue? Why did he stop writing?"
"It's like this, Boss Chen. Mingyue stopped writing at that time. He said that he had something to deal with at home."
"Can he stop updating just because he has something to deal with at home? He's too arrogant. Who gave him the right to stop updating?"
Chen Yu was angry.
Online works relied on popularity.
Apart from the quality of the work, the most important thing for popularity was updating.
Moreover, it was a continuous update.
Look at Qidian authors. How many of them dared to stop updating?
Not to mention not updating for seven consecutive days.
In the field of online literature, this was simply courting death.
Although "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" was not a traditional online literature work, in fact, it was also an online literature work.
Since it was, he had to abide by the rules of online literature works.
Now that he was about to vigorously promote the blog, this guy actually stopped updating.
Even if the uncle could tolerate it, the aunt couldn't.
"This, this, Boss Chen, I'll contact Mingyue immediately."
Although Li Xuelin did not particularly understand the so-called update, he knew that Boss Chen was angry.
If Boss Chen was angry, the consequences would naturally be serious.
"Don't contact him so quickly."
Chen Yu stopped Li Xuelin and then said, "What if you contact Mingyue and he still doesn't update? What can you do?"
"Uh …"
Hearing this, Li Xuelin also had a headache.
Yes.
What if Mingyue doesn't want to update? What can you do?
He is neither your employee nor your partner. He did not sign a contract with you, nor have any interests with you. Even if you urge him, it will not be of much use. If Mingyue had a better temper, he might have updated a few more chapters. But if he was not good, he would just say that he would not update. What does it have to do with you?
Can't I deal with the things at home?
"Boss Chen, what should we do?"
This matter was really difficult to deal with.
After all, things like blog updates were too private. He was like a diary. When he was free, he would write. When he was not free, he would not write.
Moreover, Mingyue was not the only one who did this back then. Basically, everyone did this.
Just like now. Although there were hundreds of thousands of bloggers, there were not many people who insisted on blogging every day.
"Boss Chen, why don't we set up a VIP charging function?"
After thinking for a while, Li Xuelin thought of the Qidian Chinese website.
The authors of the Qidian Chinese website were really working hard.
They never found a reason and insisted on updating every day.
The reason why they persisted was not because these authors were awesome, nor was it because they had a lot of patience.
It was because of the Qidian Chinese website's VIP charging mechanism.
Because the authors of the Qidian Chinese website could generate fees when they updated, readers would pay to read.
That was why those poor people kept updating with all their might.
Since Qidian Chinese could do it, why couldn't blogs?
"No."
Chen Yu naturally knew what Li Xuelin was talking about.
In fact, in his previous life, there was a charging model through blogs.
However, now was not the time to do so. Chen Yu said, "Not now. Our blog is in the midst of promotion and development. We still need to attract more users. If we set up a VIP charging function, it will restrict the browsing of most users. This is not conducive to the development of our blog."
"That's true."
Li Xuelin also nodded.
If they charged the moment they came, who would want to read them?
Even if they wanted to charge, they would have to wait until the blog was stable.
"But Boss Chen, if we don't set up a VIP charging model, I'm afraid these bloggers won't be interested in updating."
Anyway, there was no benefit to updating.
Other than having more views, there was not a single cent.
Of course, it was not necessarily without benefits. For example, there was a possibility of publishing.
However, before publishing, it was completely voluntary work.
Moreover, the probability of publishing online was too low. It was as difficult as ascending to the sky to make money from publishing.
Even if a publisher really came looking, it would be over. They could not update.
The publisher would not be willing to let the later content be updated online for free.
They might still let the author continue writing, but the manuscript would have to be handed over to their publisher.
If the readers wanted to read the author's work, they would not have to read it online. They would have to buy the author's book.
"This is also simple. Let's set up a reward function."
Chen Yu said with a smile.
As a big boss of the Internet, Chen Yu had too many ways to deal with these small authors.
'Since you don't want to update, fine.'
'I'll set up a reward function.'
'When the reward comes, let's see if you update.'
