Grandpa's great writer
Chapter 3 The first manuscript fee
Chapter 3 The First Contribution Fee
In the middle of the night, my father had already fallen asleep, and the old man's snoring sound was so powerful that it echoed throughout the room.
But Zhang Zhong didn't feel troubled. He came back after 40 years and heard his father's snoring, which made him feel very kind.
He turned on the computer, and then continued to write "Jieyou Grocery Store". He was in the hospital these days, whenever he had time, he would lie down in front of the computer to write the book, and the book was already half written.
He is going to post it online today.
There are many websites that can publish articles, some are newspapers and periodicals, and some are online novel websites.
Zhang Chong thought for a while, online literature with millions of words is really not suitable for "Jieyou Grocery Store", so he excluded all online novel websites.
The largest literary newspaper in China is "Agitation Literature", which gathers the best authors and a large number of readers in the country.
The website is not limited to serious literature or popular literature, but it is somewhat different from general online novel websites.Internet articles rarely have the shadow of serious literature, but the articles collected by "Agitation Literature" generally have some shadows of serious literature even if they are not serious literature.
The Call for Papers for "Agitation Literature" is available all year round, both online and offline.
Offline, the manuscript can be directly mailed to the newspaper office of "Agitation Literature". Online is more simple, and the account can be directly created on the website to publish the article, and it can be serialized after passing the review and entering the library.
No matter how you look at it, online is more suitable for Zhang Zhong.
In fact, most people now choose to post online. After all, posting online does not affect the physical publication.
In view of this, Zhang Zhong resolutely chose to publish online in "Agitation Literature". He applied for an account, and then created a new work "Jieyou Grocery Store".
Only one chapter was posted, and the website needs to be reviewed before it can be put into the database. Naturally, there is no staff to review it in the middle of the night, so we have to wait until tomorrow to know the result.
After the review is passed, he can continue to publish the next chapters.
It is worth mentioning that he changed "Jieyou Grocery Store" a bit. After all, it involves some things that are not available in this world. Fortunately, these things do not affect the main line of the work.
In fact, Zhang Chong has no idea whether "Jieyou Grocery Store" can be as popular as it is on the earth. This book is undoubtedly a very good work, but literature is not a math problem. One plus one must equal two. , Whether you can impress others is the key.
Besides, this book is still from the Neon Kingdom, so Zhang Zhong is even more uncertain.
Just as Chinese people think spicy chicken is delicious, but Americans just don't like it. They only like General Tso's chicken.
But the two worlds are so similar, even if "Jieyou Grocery Store" can't become a big hit, there must always be people who like it.
After posting a chapter, Zhang Zhong listened to his father's call, put his hands on the keyboard again, and continued to enter the remaining chapters of "Jieyou Grocery Store" into the computer.
……
For the next few days, Zhang Zhong was doing rehabilitation at home, his father took care of the shop, and his mother went to school for classes.
It is summer vacation now, but the class taught by Hu Huifang is promoted to the third grade this year, so it needs to make up lessons.
Only Pengpeng and Zhang Zhong are at home, the little girl is lively and talkative, so the family is not dull.
"Dad, are you a great writer? Grandma said you used to be a software engineer. What is a software engineer?"
Zhang Zhong rubbed his nose, thinking that his mother was blowing too hard, what kind of software engineer was he, but a graduate of a software degree, far from an engineer.
Comrade Hu Huifang, you are too immodest.
"Well, Dad used to be a software engineer, but now he doesn't want to be a great writer." Zhang Zhong said shamelessly.
Pengpeng is only four and a half years old, how did he know that his father was bragging, raised his arms and shouted, "Ho Ho, my father is a great writer, I must tell Wu Taotao when I go to school that his father is a university teacher, every day They all suck at me."
Stinky fart... Zhang Zhong has black lines on his face, this is not a vocabulary you should know at your age, and, daughter, comparison is wrong.
"Well, what is a university teacher? Dad, I am much better than a university teacher. Many universities asked me to be a teacher before, but I didn't go."
Isn't it right to say that it's a good comparison?
However, Zhang Zhong did not lie. When he was on Earth, many schools did ask him to be a teacher and give lectures to the students, but he refused them all.
"Yeah, Dad is the best."
Zhang Zhong has been praised by countless people, but his daughter's praise is particularly touching.
The review of "Jieyou Grocery Store" has been completed, and Zhang Zhong has also posted several chapters, with a total of more than 4 words.
There is no such thing as signing a contract or not signing a contract on "Agitation Literature". When the writer applied for the account, he had already registered his real name and bound the account, and signed an electronic version of the agreement at the same time.
In this agreement, the interests of the writer and the website have been divided, but it does not involve copyright regulations.
While the writer enjoys all the copyrights, he can also set the charging mode of the work by himself, and it is relatively free, and the fee for a single word can be set below [-] yuan.
As long as Zhang Zhong is willing, he can set all the words he uploads to the account to charge ten yuan per word.
Of course he didn't do this, which is obviously a way of digging his own grave.Even those well-known writers generally don't charge for the whole article, and they charge such a high fee.
Zhang Zhongfa’s [-] characters are all free, and after [-] characters, the real charge starts.
However, "Jieyou Grocery Store" has published [-] words, but there is no splash on "Agitation Literature", and it seems that no one has read the book yet.
Although he had expected this to happen before, Zhang Zhong was still a little disappointed. After all, this was the only way he could make money now.
But he doesn't have other things to do now, so he can write this book every day.
The turning point of the matter began after he posted [-] words. On this day, he had just posted a chapter, and a message popped up in the background. He clicked on it, and it turned out that there were comments from readers.
Little Goldfish: [Fifth grade vegetable?Why is this pen name so secondary? The title of this book sounds good. 】
Well, it turned out that he hadn't read the book yet.The fifth-grade vegetative person is Zhang Zhong's pseudonym. He originally wanted to use his real name, but the system prompted that it was already taken, so he chose it casually.
Zhang Zhong didn't take it seriously, he got up and went to recover for a while, played with his daughter for a while, and returned to the computer when he was a little tired.
There were two unread messages on the writer's homepage, so he clicked on them.
A reader's comment, and another one——Zhang Zhong's eyes lit up, and it turned out to be a coin-operating message.
The coin-operating of "Agitation Literature" is similar to a reward.
【Small Goldfish Coin 520】
One coin is converted into Huaxia currency for one cent, and 520 coins are five yuan. Although it is not much, Zhang Zhong is very excited.
After the coin was inserted, Little Goldfish also posted a comment.
Little Goldfish: [I have finished reading the book, which means it is really delicious, but the author should not follow those online novels and do serialization, it would be nice to publish it all at once. 】
Zhang Zhong looked at the backstage again, and it showed that someone had already paid to read his paid chapter.
The charging standard he set was [-] coins per thousand characters, and he has now received three yuan for reading.It was originally six yuan, but half was taken away by the website.
