Chapter 189
Probably not?
Jiang Miao thought that her money should still be useful.
After all, her reward mechanism is to accumulate the rewards every day based on the previous day, but if she stops updating for one day, all the previous money will be returned.
Maybe it’s just that many authors haven’t received the message yet?
Sure enough, Jiang Miao soon saw that Milk Tea Sweet Rabbit was also online, and was still talking crazily in the group:
"Oh my god! There is actually a system for coding words for the rich! Rich woman, you are my god!
I'm back, I'm back. This time I'll have to write until the end of time, a book of ten million words!"
"Wow, there's really money to be made! Wait for me to update and open another book. I'm going to start making a name for myself! Ten thousand a day!"
When Milk Tea Sweet Rabbit received the message urging her to update yesterday, she was lying on the bed happily watching Tik Tok.
What a joke! She just ignored the urging text message. She still had so many happy little puppies to watch. What was the plot?
She only makes a few cents for a thousand words, haha, she doesn’t even remember what she wrote!
But today, someone in the group said they wanted to get red envelopes, and Milk Tea Sweet Rabbit was the first to rush in, and soon found out that there was actually a subsidy for urging updates? And you can get it every day!
Oh my god, this rich lady is too much! She actually uses money to keep a poor pigeon author like her hanging?
So without saying anything, authors like Milk Tea Sweet Rabbit, who were extremely short of money and could not even kneel before the God of Wealth, all came back immediately and went crazy!
Write, start writing now!
Not to mention 4,000 words a day, even if she didn't sleep or rest, she could write 40,000 words a day even if she knelt on the keyboard!
The power of money is so great! Soon, all the mid-level authors who had stopped updating their works came back, but Jiang Miao found that the authors who updated their works yearly at a tortoise speed had no movement at all.
So, Jiang Miao asked authors like Milk Tea and Tian Rabbit what their mentality was.
[Woo woo rich sister suck and stick! I knew it was absolutely right to let you be the editor! You must be the god who came to save us novel authors! You are playing a big game!
Kick the persimmon with your feet and punch the city with your fists, let our Chinese online literature rise again! Let our novels become popular overseas and once again become the spiritual opium of foreigners, and let Chinese culture be exported and popular all over the world again!
I know you, rich lady, must be playing a global chess game! 】
Before Jiang Miaodu could even reply, she received a WeChat message of several hundred words of praise, which stunned her.
Ah, no, isn't it that the imagination of your novelist is too outrageous? How come she doesn't know that she is planning a global expansion?
But at this point, after saying a lot, Milk Tea Sweet Rabbit finally got to the point. It turned out that it was because these top authors sold the copyrights of one book for hundreds of millions, thus achieving financial freedom, and had no motivation to write at all.
Therefore, a good novel is just too lazy to be written, and it can be delayed from daily update to monthly update and finally to annual update!
It just makes the readers feel anxious and frustrated that they can't see the ending.
It seems that it is time to develop professional update urgers!
Jiang Miao immediately posted a job posting on a local website, asking for professional debt collection, but ended up attracting a group of professional debt collectors...
This won't work. She's urging for updates, not sending razor blades!
So Jiang Miao posted the job posting on a part-time job posting website at a university in the same city. Three hundred yuan a day attracted many university students who were willing to urge him to update his work.
After confirming once again that it was just a polite reminder and not a debt collector, Jiang Miao issued the task.
The website and editor all know the author's address, so when Jiang Miao sent the address to the person who was urging for updates, people from major cities started to set off one after another.
[Don't worry, boss! Don't even mention 300 a day, I can guarantee that even if you give me 150 a day, I can persuade him to change his ways! ]
I don’t know whether these authors will listen to the advice?
Jiang Miao was still slacking off and waiting for the results, but at this moment, the director asked them to attend a group meeting.
"Our business performance this month is not very good. The number of readers has dropped again, and the turnover is also less than last month. We must save energy and increase efficiency!
First of all, as a free reading website, our biggest customers are our advertisers, so we need to add more advertisements!
Second, work hard to deduct the author's royalties and squeeze every penny out of the author! Use the rules reasonably to prevent them from earning full attendance!"
After hearing this, Jiang Miao opened her mouth wide.
Ah, no, she doesn’t understand. Shouldn’t the biggest customers of a novel website like yours be authors and readers?
What is the meaning of withholding the author's royalties? It is written in black and white in the contract, how can you withhold it?
Jiang Miao asked whatever she wanted to ask, she really didn't understand.
But after asking, Director Gu Xiang laughed, tapped the table and looked at Jiang Miao with contempt:
"You are the new editor this month, right? You don't understand anything about this? You won't even deduct the manuscript fee!
Our royalties are not transparent, so we just round off the amount and give it a discount. As long as it's not too excessive, the author won't be able to tell.
Also, there are loopholes in our full attendance bonus. For example, if an author writes for 30 days without a break in a month, but the chapter given to her on the last day is not approved, then she will not be able to achieve full attendance, right? I saved more than a thousand yuan in an instant!"
Of course, there are also things within the rules. For example, if an author plagiarizes a text from another website, they will not directly judge it as plagiarism. Instead, they can use the plagiarized book to attract readers to their website. When the book makes enough money, they can lock the book before paying the royalties. This way, they can get traffic without paying any costs. How great!
Of course, they have done this at least hundreds of times. It costs nothing to attract readers to other people's websites, which is definitely a win-win situation!
"Shouldn't the money be returned to the author who was plagiarized as compensation?"
Jiang Miao really didn't understand how he could be so confident when he violated someone's rights, as if he was very smart and proud.
However, Director Gu just rolled his eyes at her, not wanting to pay attention to this ignorant newcomer, and then continued:
"Of course this is just the small part, our big part is our currently mature AI.
At present, our artificial intelligence imitates and merges the manuscripts of all authors. The fragmentation technology is mature and can merge the manuscripts of more than a dozen authors to generate new manuscripts. Legally, it cannot be judged as plagiarism. In this way, we can throw away all authors and produce tens of thousands of novels a day at no cost.
Anyway, readers just like to read formulaic articles. You feed them anything and they will eat it. Let AI generate 5,000 books a day to squeeze out the online article market, and let us dominate the market alone! This is our strongest and most core competitiveness in the future!
I believe that within half a year, novels, games, and the downstream screenwriter and film and television markets will all belong to us, Shihuangzi AI! This is also the latest grand plan of our new president, Shi Jun!"
After listening to it, most of the people below applauded and cheered, except Jiang Miao, who felt a chill all over his body.
Artificial intelligence AI does not think independently and innovate, it only imitates and copies existing ones.
How serious will the consequences be? Don’t the director and these senior leaders really know?
