The days when I retired with the queen of music

Chapter 359: Bitterness: There are two roads, and I chose the one that eats shit.
Two days later, Kuku sent a message saying that Fengshuxia was not optimistic about Lu Anzhi's proposal, and preferred a model of forum publishing and publishing linkage.After all, this path has already been revealed by Hua Ke.

However, Maple Tree did not completely reject Lu Anzhi's suggestion, and planned to continue to promote the revision, mainly to develop forums, and also to dedicate a small group of people to build a bookshelf website.However, the headquarters under the maple tree does not intend to force anyone to make this website. It depends on the personal wishes of the company's employees.

"Bookshelf website" is the name they gave Lu Anzhi's suggestion.

However, because the main resources are tilted towards the forum, bookshelf websites will not receive much support.

Lu Anzhi asked Kuku on Qiuqiu: What are you going to do?
Kuku said: Of course I want to go to this website. Boss B, I believe in your vision.

Kuku: Of course, the main reason is that I am optimistic about this model.I always feel that this model is more suitable for the Internet era.I think traditional stores are now being squeezed by online stores, and I’m afraid the traditional publishing model will be squeezed even more.

Lu Anzhi didn't expect that Kuku would have such a vision.He thought for a while and said in Qiuqiuli: But the Huoke model you originally planned for is actually a new model.And it can be said that that model is more like the current online store, which sells books online. When it gets bigger in the future, it can directly start online bookings and get rid of offline channels.

Kuku soon sent a new message: But books are different from other products.After all, books are carriers of words. What we read when we read books is the content, not the paper.Nowadays, the development of the Internet is changing day by day. I don’t think it is certain that in the future, people will simply give up reading physical books and switch to e-books.I went to find out specifically that there are now special e-paper books on sale. There are e-paper books where you can directly download the electronic version of the novel and then read it on the e-paper book.But it's just too expensive.

Lu Anzhi couldn't help but smile when he saw Ku Ku's words.He didn't notice that there was even such a thing as a kindle in this world.He wasn't interested in it. In his previous life, he also bought a kindle, but it ended up being an instant noodle cover.After all, he's not someone who likes reading with this thing.

He sent a message to Kuku: Have you ever thought about how this new website can make money?
Kuku asked directly: What suggestions does Boss B have?
Lu Anzhi: ...

Kuku: Boss B, if you mentioned the idea of ​​this website to me, you must already have a good idea!You are not a person who likes to make random decisions.

Lu Anzhi: ...

Kuku: Hehe!
Good guy, as an editor, I can save trouble.

However, before Lu Anzhi said anything, Kuku went on to send a message to Qiuqiu Li: Alas, it’s a pity that we want to build this website, so we don’t get many resources and don’t have much funding. I guess we can only build one first. The framework of the website is barely enough to build the website.

Lu Anzhi couldn't help but laugh when he saw the message sent by Ku Ku, and sent a message asking: Are you planning to trick me?
Kuku: What routine?
Ah!This woman is still pretending to be confused with herself!

Lu Anzhi directly sent a message threatening: OK, if there is no routine, then I won't care.

Kuku: No!

Kuku: Okay, I’ll tell the truth, Boss B.I just want to attract investment from you.Didn't you say you have money?You have money and we are short of money. You see how complementary they are!
Lu Anzhi: I didn’t know you were so thick-skinned before.

Kuku: Hehe!
Kuku: Boss B, since you have this idea, you must be very optimistic about this project.If this is the case, it would be great if we could cooperate on this project.

Kuku: Of course, Boss B, it all depends on your wishes.If you don't want to invest, we will find other investments.

When Lu Anzhi saw what Kuku said, he sent a message to Qiuqiu: You have said so, how can I not vote?
Kuku: I knew Boss B would definitely vote!Then how about we separate from Maple Tree and set up a subsidiary to develop this website?
Lu Anzhi: See these for yourself.I will then ask Li Huiming from Xinwei Company to contact you, and he will finalize the contract with you.

Xinwei Company is the name of Li Huiming’s company.Lu Anzhi did not plan to work hard on this new website by himself. It was the best choice to leave it to Li Huiming and take charge of the general direction himself.

He had been the shopkeeper for a long time, and Li Huiming was quite reliable, so he didn't want to bother himself anymore.

Kuku was suddenly surprised. In Qiuqiu, he sent Lu Anzhi several question marks and exclamation marks, and then asked: Boss B, does Xinwei Company belong to you? !
This company is so famous. Both WeChat and Xianxianjingting have established a firm foothold on the domestic Internet within less than a year of their launch, and have become leading brands.But after thinking about it hard, I realized it.

Kuku: That’s right. I’ve been so diligent in maintaining your information, Boss B, on WeChat, and Xianxianjingting has taken over all of your works. How could it be possible that I have nothing to do with you, Boss B? Boss B, your awesomeness far exceeds my imagination.

Lu Anzhi: It's okay.

Kuku immediately thought of something, and said to Lu Anzhi in Qiuqiu: Then I guess Weihua and Xianxianjingting must have been made according to your suggestion, Boss B, right?I knew, Boss B, you are so awesome, I would definitely not run away if I followed you.

Yes, Lu Anzhi doesn't need to say anything, this guy Kuku has already guessed everything he can.

Then Lu Anzhi saw Kuku and sent another message: Boss B, what other plans do you have for the new website?Why not bring it up together and we can just act on it.

Lu Anzhi: Do you just believe me that much?

Kuku: Boss B, you have created WeChat and transformed all the chat customers, so we have to follow suit. With this level, can I still believe you?

Lu Anzhi: ...

Kuku: Give me some advice, Boss B.

Lu Anzhi said: I can't tell you clearly for a while, so let's stop talking here.I will talk to Li Huiming later and ask him to connect with you. Then I will also list the suggestions for the new website and send them to you.

Kuku: ...

Kuku: OK. Boss B, you are making me unable to get up or down...

Lu Anzhi: Who did it to you? You did it to yourself, okay?

Kuku: ...

After finishing chatting with the bitter Qiuqiu, Lu Anzhi called Li Huiming.

On the phone, Lu Anzhi told Li Huiming about the novel website. Unexpectedly, Li Huiming was a little embarrassed on the phone.

Li Huiming said: "Mr. Lu, there is nothing wrong with the plan you proposed, but we are afraid that we cannot afford more funds to carry out so many projects at the same time. We have already approved the mobile chat software project, Jiji's side The game is also being planned. If the project is approved in the future, the funds required will not be small. Mr. Lu, there are ready-made manpower under the maple trees over there. There should be no problem in this regard, but we do move the funds. It won't come out..." Lu Anzhi said: "Don't worry about the money. I still have it here. It's no problem to use it as start-up capital. Just go ahead and do it."

Li Huiming had no objection to this. Anyway, when their company was first launched, they all relied on the funds provided by Lu Anzhi, who was the absolute majority shareholder.Now that Lu Anzhi has injected capital, he will still be the absolute majority shareholder, without any problems.

And they all know that the bigger the company is, the more they can earn.Lu Anzhi's acumen in the Internet industry has gained their absolute trust.

After hearing what Lu Anzhi said, Li Huiming quickly agreed and turned around to cooperate with the people under the maple tree.

Finally, after the negotiation, the two parties decided to cooperate to establish a company, with Xinwei taking a large proportion of the shares, and Maple Tree will dedicate part of its manpower to participate in the operation of the website - mainly the operation of content.Xinwei also specially assigned people to lead the daily management and technical maintenance of the new company.

Lu Anzhi also compiled the suggestions based on the previous life novel website and sent them to the new company through Li Huiming.

These suggestions mainly include the layout of the new website, novel classification, distribution of various recommendation positions, ranking layout, work exposure method and promotion mode, etc.Finally, there is a subscription model for listing.

These things have been very mature in previous lives, especially after the advent of the big data era.Lu Anzhi's proposal, on top of this mature model, also increases the editor's dominance to increase the chances and methods of outstanding works of different types and styles to come forward, and avoid data-only theory.

Based on this consideration, Lu Anzhi put forward the earliest form of Sanjiang Pavilion recommendation.This recommended position is applied by the author himself, and is reviewed by the independent Sanjiangge editor. The recommended works are judged according to independent review standards to determine the recommended works.

After Kuku received these suggestions from Lu Anzhi, he quickly told Lu Anzhi through Qiuqiu: Boss B, you have indeed been planning this for a long time!I feel more confident about my new website!So does our editor-in-chief.But with this subscription method and price, Boss B, are you sure there is no problem?
Lu Anzhi: There may be problems, but these can be adjusted later.Anyway, I think there is no problem.

Lu Anzhi has put forward the subscription fee now, which is a consideration.

This world is different from the previous life. The subscription system in the previous life was proposed when the novel websites were looking for a way out after each novel website developed to a certain stage.As a leader in developing subscription systems, when Qidian first tried to subscribe, it was a challenge and attempt for both industry practitioners and readers.

But this world is different. Electronic magazines have been popular for several years, and readers have become accustomed to electronic subscription reading.So there is no problem in letting readers pay for electronic novels.

Moreover, readers have to buy electronic magazines issue by issue, and they also contain content that readers do not like.But novel websites are different. Readers only need to subscribe to the novels they like, and they can even ignore chapters they are not interested in.This is much cheaper and more affordable than buying electronic magazines.

Kuku quickly figured it out, and Fa Qiuqiu said: Yes, a single novel subscription is more affordable than an electronic magazine.Moreover, this also promotes direct communication between readers and authors. The author can adjust the content of the novel in time according to the number of chapter subscriptions, which is also more conducive to improving the quality of the novel.

This quality mainly refers to the attractiveness of the content of the novel, not anything else.

Lu Anzhi saw that Kuku had figured it out so quickly, and immediately said: It's okay, I didn't expect you to figure it out so quickly.

Kuku: Hehe!
Kuku: And in this way, the work of us editors is also greatly reduced.There is no need to keep looking at the content of the work.

Lu Anzhi: But the amount of reviewers you need has also greatly increased.

Kuku: ...

Kuku: 囧rz……

There were a few people who decided to come out from under the maple tree and join the new company, including the editor-in-chief and Ku Ku.Of course, it is not enough for these people to establish a new team, so Kukun is very busy. On the one hand, it is busy setting up a new company, on the other hand, it is busy recruiting people, and on the other hand, it is busy collecting manuscripts.

The new website is different from the old website. The number of manuscripts required is not comparable to that of an electronic magazine.Moreover, the serial nature and exposure method of the new website also make it not very friendly to short stories.

When I was communicating with Lu Anzhi before, I had unknowingly ignored short stories and novels.

The revision of Under the Maple Tree started quickly, with editorial adjustments and the collection of articles for the new and old websites proceeding steadily.Under the Maple Tree specifically contacted Lu Anzhi, hoping that Lu Anzhi’s martial arts novels could continue to be serialized on the revised forum under the Maple Tree, and that subsequent publishing matters could also continue on the Maple Tree.

However, Lu Anzhi's editor has not changed, and he is still struggling.This editor is destined to wear two hats. While preparing a new website and collecting a large number of new manuscripts, he is also taking care of Lu Anzhi's serialization on the forum under the maple tree.

Fortunately, Lu Anzhi's manuscripts never needed to be revised by her. She only needed to read and follow up, and format and publish the manuscript in time.

As for the new website, Kuku is a bit scratching his head.

On this day, Lu Anzhi wrote a few more chapters of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and sent them to Kuku, but he saw Kuku crying to him in Qiuqiu: Boss B, the new website is so difficult!You don’t know, I’m just digging for gold in shit every day!

Lu Anzhi: Wasn’t it the same before?

He remembered that Kuku had complained to him more than once before.

Kuku: It’s different this time!This time there’s more shit!After we announced the requirements for accepting articles for the new website - no restrictions on subject matter, no restrictions on writing style, as long as they are interesting, my mailbox was filled with shit!The most important thing is that I have to pick out some shit that is slightly less smelly and more or less smelly, otherwise I am afraid that when the website is opened, there will not even be enough manuscripts and the home page will not be filled.

Lu Anzhi: Just keep working hard and wait until the website is opened.At that time, authors can submit their manuscripts directly in the backend and actively contribute to the library.

Kuku: I hope it will be better by then.I regret it a bit, Boss B. I think I was fooled by you.If I had known this, I would have stayed at the forum and not come to the new website.Eating shit is so uncomfortable!Alas, there are two roads, why did I choose the shit-eating one?

Lu Anzhi: Admit it, you choose the road yourself.

Kuku: ...

Kuku: Boss B, do you have any good articles for the new website?You can't favor one thing over another, just stay on the forum side!I rely on your novels to cure my shit poison!

Lu Anzhi: ...
