LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 51
The price of the book is too high.
Bai Qianqu almost cursed after this calculation.
The system is afraid that he can't afford it, but it's also afraid that he will have extra money left!
Last time, he spent 500,000 to customize "Fleeting Time", and only 1.5 million was left in his pocket. Now the system is going to take it all at once. It's simply not a human being!
However, Bai Qianqu finally customized "The King's Avatar" with the system. There was no way. If he didn't buy this limited-time discount, the next customization would cost 2 million.
He really couldn't afford it.
[Customization completed! "The King's Avatar" has been sent, please sign for it! ]
While Bai Qianqu was waiting for the full novel to appear with hope, he found that except for all the chapters of the novel in his mind, there was nothing else.
Cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Wait, system, you don't want me to code the whole book with my own hands, do you?"
[Yes, this system is only responsible for teaching the host the memory of the whole book. If the finished product is to be published, it needs to be written by hand. ]
A big question mark appeared above Bai Qianqu's head.
The full version of The King's Avatar has 5.3498 million words!
Let me write it word by word? It will take me forever?
Isn't this going to cost me my life?
At first, I thought I had made a profit with a 25% discount, but I didn't expect it to be a huge pit!
Creating a song is much simpler than this. Others only need to write lyrics and music, and they can finish it in minutes. You have more than 5 million words...
Bai Qianqu immediately wanted to return the goods.
But it was obvious that the system would not let him get what he wanted.
[Sorry, all products in this system are sold and cannot be returned or exchanged! ]
"Swindler! Do you understand that there is no reason for seven days?"
[I don't understand. 】
Bai Qianqu was speechless. When he thought about writing more than 5 million words, he suddenly lost a lot of motivation.
Perhaps it was because the system realized that Bai Qianqu had no motivation, it sounded again.
[Don't worry, you only need to pay 100,000 to permanently open the "Tentacle Monster" state, and 100,000 words a day is no problem! ]
"Tentacle Monster state?" Bai Qianqu's face was a little weird, "There is also this kind of BUFF bonus?"
"No! System, are you trying to cheat me again?"
[This system is fair and honest, and all transactions are voluntary. ]
Bai Qianqu gritted his teeth, but he also knew that if he wanted to finish a novel of 5 million words, if he didn't rely on the system's BUFF bonus, and simply relied on his clumsy hands, who knows how long it would take to write.
And 100,000 is not too expensive. When his dividends come down, he must add BUFF to himself as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Bai Qianqu turned on the computer, but he didn't write a novel, but began to search for the novel platform of this world.
In the original world, online novels are uploaded and published on various platforms. As long as you register an author account, create a novel, upload chapters and pass the review, you can apply for a contract after reaching a certain number of words. After the contract is passed, you can earn subscription money from readers by writing and putting it on the shelves.
Of course, there is another model, the so-called free novel. As long as readers look at advertisements from time to time, or buy VIP, they can read novels for free.
Most novels are published in the form of online articles, and few novels are published in physical books, because online articles are indeed more convenient to read than physical books, and the cost is also lower.
Bai Qianqu originally thought that this world was like this, but he soon found out that his idea was wrong.
In this world, physical books and online articles are actually going hand in hand! The market share of the two is actually almost the same!
This surprised Bai Qianqu, but he soon found out the reason.
People in this world attach great importance to art, and people's artistic literacy is also very strong. Coupled with a good copyright awareness and supervision system, it is difficult for piracy to survive.
The prices of physical books and online articles are almost the same. For the same price, people are also happy to buy a physical book and read it in their hands. After reading it, they can also keep it as a collection.
Moreover, online authors like to hold book signing and sales conferences from time to time, which further strengthens the weight of physical books in the minds of readers.
Of course, you can also choose to publish novels in the form of online articles, which has obvious advantages.
The cost of trial and error is low, suitable for large-scale promotion, and the threshold is also lower.
Many new authors like to publish online articles first, and then turn to physical books after they have achieved some results.
Bai Qianqu thought about it and decided to publish directly
Receive and send physical books.
"The King's Avatar" has been verified countless times by the market, and this time it has been shown that it is an excellent novel that can stand the test of readers.
Bai Qianqu was too lazy to post online articles anymore. He didn't mind writing 4,000 words a day, but readers should be impatient.
It would be better to post physical books directly, a hundred chapters at a time, so that he could write and readers could read them.
After making up his mind, Bai Qianqu created a new folder and typed four words on the keyboard -
The King's Avatar.
......
At the end of the day's work, when he got off work, Bai Qianqu found that he had only written 4,000 words.
This made him extremely ashamed. It took him four hours to write only 4,000 words...
And this was directly copied...
To say that he was clumsy was a compliment to him.
It seemed that he had to spend the 100,000 yuan even if he didn't want to.
When Bai Qianqu was packing up and preparing to run the money, Bronya called.
"Qianqu, are you free tonight? Let's go have dinner together."
Bai Qianqu was naturally overjoyed to hear that he could eat for free, and he agreed immediately.
He was just thinking about what kind of instant noodles he would eat in the evening.
Quickly going downstairs, Bai Qianqu found Xi'er standing at the door waiting with a guitar on her back, and waved to him excitedly when she saw him.
"Teacher Bai, here!"
Bai Qianqu walked over and asked curiously: "Xi'er, why are you still carrying your guitar?"
Xi'er smiled shyly: "I was practicing in the recording studio just now. Before I had time to put it away, I received a call from Sister Bronya, asking us to have dinner together tonight."
"And me!" Behind Xi'er, Hill jumped out and said loudly, "Teacher Bai, you actually won the first place on the new song list, it's really amazing——"
Xi'er covered Hill's mouth with one hand, looked around, and found that no one was paying attention to this side, so she breathed a sigh of relief and quickly scolded: "Hill, have you forgotten what Sister Bronya said? Teacher Bai's identity must be kept secret!"
Seeing Hill nodding repeatedly, Xi'er let go of her hand and said to Bai Qianqu with an apologetic look: "I'm sorry, Teacher Bai, Hill is a little nervous, don't bother with her."
Bai Qianqu was still a little strange.
What's going on? Bronya wants to keep her identity secret?
How come you don’t know it yet?
