I really want to hit the street

After Xingchen finished speaking, the entire Qidian conference room fell into silence.

A long silence enveloped the entire place.

At this moment, they looked up at the background of the conference room. Five Q-version patterns were hugged together.

They are Baojianfeng, Hidden Sword Jiangnan, Heart of Darkness, The Intent (Hou Qingchen), and The Left Hand of Darkness.

The 5 founders of Qidian Chinese Network.

They went through many hardships to bring Qidian from a small forum to the right track. The VIP payment system they implemented went from being questioned to becoming a success, driving the online literature industry to soar like a rocket.

Countless experiences tell them that this system is correct.

Only those who pay are sustainable and can promote the development of the industry.

Qidian stands at the pinnacle of Chinese online literature with its high-quality online articles, but now it wants to promote free reading?

Xingchen doesn’t agree!

"You can see that Zhongshan Novel has made money by free of charge, but what if every website promotes free reading? Then who can make money? By then it will be the biggest disaster in the history of the online literature industry. I hope everyone can take good care of it. consider."

Xingchen walked out of the conference room alone, like a lonely king at this moment.

He is an editor and has worked in Qidian for more than 10 years. He has come step by step to where he is today. He knows very clearly what Qidian relies on to get here.

If everyone present is confused by the traffic and data, he will not.

After a long while, another board member who had been silent raised his hand and said: "I agree with Xingchen's opinion. Free reading of Zhongshan novels cannot be copied, and learning will lead to failure. We must stick to the path of paying for ourselves."

"I also agree with President Xingchen"

"I agree Star."

The members behind expressed their opinions one by one, and Zhao Si could no longer listen.

He was just shocked by what Xingchen said.

He finally understood why Xingchen could reach his current position step by step. His judgment of himself and the market was at its peak!

New media channels, self-operated channels, new types of advertising, all strategies are used by him, which has injected a powerful boost to Qidian's development in recent years.

After packing up his laptop, Zhao Si left the conference room feeling a little depressed.

"But, what are we going to do? Are we going to just watch them shit on our heads all the time? A second-rate novel website? Just because they have a better vision than us? I don't accept it!"

Xingchen's secretary came over: "Director Zhao, President Xingchen invites you."

"Well?"

Zhao Si walked into Xingchen's office and was looking at the certificates on the wall.

"Old Zhao, look. These are the honors Qidian has received over the years, Best Brand of the Year, Excellent Internet Company, Forbes China's Emerging Media, China's Best Literary Website, Global Mobile Internet Excellence Achievement Award-Best of the Year There are too many tool applications. We have relied on traffic to reach this point, but it is definitely not just traffic. Qidian’s logic has never been that traffic equals making money, but to create a good platform to serve authors and readers. Only by serving them well can we benefit from it, you know?”

Zhao Si nodded: "I understand, CEO."

His Internet thinking is not fully applicable to Qidian, a huge literary website.

"But..." Zhao Si frowned: "What should we do with Qidian International? Our platform cannot keep up with Zhongshan International. Their first-mover free advantage is too great and has completely destroyed this industry. If this continues, we It’s hard to surpass their size.”

Xingchen said with a smile: "This is not our problem, it is their problem. Tell Mr. Pu that paid reading is the way out. Their behavior is not good for the entire industry. I hope they can understand."

Zhao Si: "."

He suddenly didn't know what to say.

After spending a long time trying to get someone to change the payment method?

Isn't this too ridiculous?

People are so excited to seize the market now, how could they give up this method?

Are you really going to change the world if you can't change yourself?

It's better to think of other ways to surpass Zhongshan International.

Mr. Pu didn't give him a good look last time, so if he talks about it now, wouldn't he be humiliating himself?

"President, I think this is unlikely to be realized, because their free model has been fixed, and the income is currently pretty good. If they change to the same charging system as ours, I am afraid they will lose a lot of users and lead to a decline in website income. They The boss is not stupid, so how could he agree? "

Xingchen waved his hand: "You don't know Mr. Pu. He is a very far-sighted person and has a higher insight into the market than I do. He must also see that free reading must be a big pit in the end. I just remind him to climb out early." Just come out, he will understand the pain of the reform period. We are competitors abroad and have the same identity as a platform for the export of Chinese online literature and culture."

Zhao Si: "Okay, I'll try it."

When he walked out of the president's office, he felt unrealistic.

This is equivalent to seeing others making money, and then you become jealous and say that those who make money are not good people. Come and be a poor guy like me! Then people will definitely call themselves a fool.

"Damn it. Why does this kind of thing happen to me? Isn't this self-humiliating?"

He remembered Mr. Pu's ruthless ridicule last time, and what else. It was a deal, double happiness came to his door, it was really arrogant!

The key is that he still has no way to sanction Zhongshan Novel!

Other domestic websites have already established their own style and positioning that is different from Qidian, so their audience groups are naturally not the same group. They run their own operations very well, and Qidian has nothing to do with others.

Even if they are not allowed to authorize their own authors' books, they cannot stop the development of this website.

"Forget it, I won't go to Kyoto to find myself being ridiculed. I'll just make a phone call and convey the president's intention."

He really doesn’t believe there is a boss who doesn’t love money!

"Mr. Xingchen is still a bit too idealistic."

He shook his head to do some mental work. After all, he would have to face Mr. Pu's cynicism later and had to pretend to be indifferent.

Pu Jie's own home.

He Mi was lying on the bed, wiping her navel with paper, and said, "Why are there so many today?"

"Maybe you're in a good mood?" Pu Jie wasn't sure either.

"It's been a long time and I can hardly hold it anymore. If you don't finish it, I will faint."

Pu Jie was surprised: "Is it that exaggerated?"

"Hmph! I want to make up for it by eating French croissants for lunch!"

"Okay, okay, didn't I just write an extra chapter? You can't cut off the inspiration when it comes, right? Okay, stop picking your belly button, be careful of stomachache!" Pu Jie closed his laptop, got dressed and got ready to go out.

"Who asked you to write a novel all morning? I almost fainted from boredom."

He Mi also quickly got dressed and took Pu Jie's arm to go out.

On the way, Pu Jie's phone rang.
