Chapter 444: You will be cheated to the point of doubting your life!
On the 8th, two websites made netizens speculate what big moves would happen today.
The heated exchange of fire over price came to a tacit halt.
Other confrontations were just verbal battles on the Xiongchen forum.
Of course, during this process, Jiang Hua was in an absolute disadvantage.
There's no way. His website is newly opened, there is no author, and the library is copied.
Various slots.
That’s why I got criticized so much.
Fortunately, Jiang Hua was also a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water. He admitted these points and kept promoting how much his boss was worth, what an outstanding business elite in Hong Kong he was, how powerful his publishing house was, and how he could destroy Qifei Literature Network in the long run.
Tang Yichen and even Lin Wei found this funny, but because Tang Yichen wanted to keep it secret, they did not refute it.
Of course, the main reason was not that Tang Yichen insisted on keeping his identity secret.
Instead, he wanted to trick this guy.
If the identity of Tang Yichen's boss were to be revealed, he wouldn't dare to challenge Tang Yichen even if he had the guts.
If that's the case, how much will he lose?
According to the information he revealed online, Jiang Hua's boss is quite powerful and is worth hundreds of millions.
If I don't trick him and make him suffer heartbrokenly, how can I be worthy of the price Tang Yichen paid for revealing his identity?
Therefore, with the other party still unaware of the takeoff, the two literary networks officially launched a long war of attrition.
That is a money-burning war.
Under this model, the people who enjoy the most are undoubtedly domestic authors.
However, one bad thing is that because of this situation, many people who have no talent for writing novels have blindly entered this industry because they know that there is still money to be made in this industry due to the excitement of the battle between the two sides.
And now they can actually get a small guarantee, which makes these people happy and even makes some of them quit their jobs and start writing full-time.
This may not be a problem in the short term while the two sides are fighting. However, once the money-burning war ends and the website returns to normal operation, it will be difficult for these people to even get the guaranteed minimum for their books.
However, everything is a personal choice at the time, and Tang Yichen has no way of worrying about such things.
As time passed, Tang Yichen resumed playing Legend at home every day.
Well, it was done at home, and it was almost always done by Tang Yifan, the kid, who occupied Tang Yichen's computer.
As for the money-burning war among online literature websites, Tang Yichen simply asked Tang Xionghua for another 10 million on the 10th, and then injected it into the company account and left it alone.
Number 14.
The day before the Lunar New Year.
On this day, Tang Xionghua came back.
Even though he wanted to keep a low profile and even deliberately didn't take a Hongqi bus back, he still got stuck in traffic in the county town.
Tang Xionghua had no way to deal with this.
Socializing is something that a businessman must do.
Even him.
After dinner, I went home with Tang Xionghua.
The old Tang family became lively again.
It is worth mentioning that my aunt and uncle also came back with my dad today.
Tang Yifan was originally full of energy at home, but when he saw Tang Xionghua and his parents, he instantly changed into a different person, becoming as honest as he could be.
Tang Yichen smiled secretly.
This kid hasn't recovered from the attack from the immortal last year, it seems!
Come to think of it, it's understandable. If this happened to him, Tang Yichen wouldn't know how to deal with it.
It's so embarrassing.
"Is there really a fight going on over at the literature website?"
At night, when it was late and the Tang family had finally quieted down, Tang Xionghua walked into Tang Yichen's room and asked Tang Yichen.
Tang Yichen nodded and said with a smile, "This guy is not a good person. If the acquisition fails, he will try to mess with me. I have to teach him a lesson!"
"Well, do you need more money?"
Tang Xionghua didn't say much.
Although he was very busy during this period, someone naturally told him the whole story in detail.
Even if no one else told her, Lin Wei would still call to report the situation. After all, although their boss was Tang Yichen, and they all felt that Tang Yichen was very mature and not like a child in everything they did, Tang Yichen was still a child after all. How could he not report such a big thing to Tang Xionghua?
"Yes, of course!" Tang Yichen nodded affirmatively: "Dad, please give me another 100 million later. I estimate that if I invest another 100 million in this website, I can achieve a balance between income and expenditure!"
"Hmm? Do you have any ideas?"
Tang Xionghua didn't react much to the 100 million yuan offer. Tang Yichen had made a significant contribution to the Tang family's wealth.
What's more, he does have hundreds of millions of pocket money now, so it's no big deal to take out 100 million.
What surprised him even more now was Tang Yichen's words.
From what Tang Yichen said, how can he achieve a balance between income and expenditure?
This is not an easy task in the current Internet environment.
After all, not to mention companies like Tang Yichen that directly lose money, in the huge Internet market, there are actually very few companies that can make money other than advertising.
Of course, Tang Yichen knew that selling physical books and earning copyright income was also a way to monetize.
However, this method requires that you really have high requirements for the quality of the book.
After all, there are too few people working in the online literature field nowadays, and the cultural level of the authors who are engaged in online literature creation is generally not high. It is very difficult for the articles they write to sell well after being published in physical form.
The success of "Notes on Cultivation of Immortality" is mainly due to the book's unique worldview, which opens the door to a new world that the people today yearn for but have never had a concrete concept of.
Even if this story is false.
But novels are magical things. The charm of words can immerse people in them. If they are well written, they can even subtly make people believe that the world of cultivating immortals is really like this.
Therefore, the success of a book does not mean that the website can truly achieve a balance between income and expenditure through this path.
Of course, Tang Yichen did not hide anything from his father.
He said directly: "I plan to ask Lin Wei and others to develop a reward function after the new year, which will support remittance and recharge for rewarding books.
This should bring some income to the website.
At the same time, we will also develop a tiered ranking system to urge readers to update their books and promote their consumption.
Of course, the most important thing is that I am ready for the second half of next year or the beginning of the year after next."
How to monetize traffic on Internet websites is the biggest problem facing many Internet practitioners today.
But this problem is not difficult for Tang Yichen. What are the ways to monetize online literature?
The most direct and effective
Today, bank card business has matured, and although online banking payment methods have not yet become popular, they do exist and have been available in China for two years. It’s just that this type of business was not open to ordinary people at the beginning.
But you have to know that the Tang family is a family with a bank.
If one uses one's own bank as the settlement point, online banking payment can definitely be promoted immediately.
By then, online payment will not be as convenient and fast as Alipay and WeChat in the future.
However, the remote online banking payment method on the computer is also enough to promote the current situation of Internet monetization.
