Chapter 1925: The market is developing

Jian Yishen frowned, is this really possible? Will there be other authors who are willing to serialize their works on the starting point Huawen website?

After a while, Jian Yishen said: "Editor-in-chief, as we said before, serialization on the Internet is completely free. It was on Weibo before, and it should be the starting point of Huawen.com. Only like Li Fan and Gu People like Yong who don’t care about the cost of the manuscript at all dare to serialize on the Internet, don’t they? For the vast majority of other authors, their source of income is only manuscript fees. If serialization is free, they will not have it. Economic income, how could they be willing?"

Wang Yang said: "To solve this problem, it is actually very simple. That is to charge. In other words, the works on the starting point Chinese website can not be provided to readers for free, but a fee system is adopted. Readers need to pay to be able to Read the works on the website. In this way, for those authors, they have a source of manuscript fees."

"Pay to read?" Jian Yishen was surprised again, can he do this? This seems unrealistic, and it is estimated that few readers will be willing to pay for reading.

He said: "Editor-in-chief, this seems unrealistic. Will readers be willing to pay to read?"

Wang Yang said: “In fact, what readers are reading now and serialized in newspapers and magazines are not free. They need to spend money to buy every issue of newspapers and magazines. It makes sense to pay for reading on the Internet. The same is true. Of course, the paid price must be reasonable. If it is too expensive, then no one is willing to pay for reading. This is the crux of the problem."

Hearing what Wang Yang said, Jian Yishen had to admit that what Wang Yang said is indeed reasonable, and the serialization in newspapers and magazines is not free for readers.

Although before Gu Yong or Li Fan, their serialization on Weibo is completely free, but this does not mean that serialization on the Internet must be completely free.

Moreover, Gu Yong did not seem to say that serialization on the Internet is free.

Before, it was just that everyone subconsciously thought that serialization on the Internet was free.

Is it really as Wang Yang speculated? Starting point Huawen.com is a platform created by Gu Yong, specifically for serialization on the Internet? Will the charging mode be opened in the future? Readers need to pay to read the works serialized on the website?

And this is the real purpose of Gu Yong's launch of the starting point Huawen.com.

Is this really possible?

Jian Yishen frowned slightly, wondering how likely this is?

Soon, he thought of another question and said: "Editor-in-chief, if this is the case, then the "Writer Zone" on the homepage of the website should be able to register as a writer. However, I tried it and couldn't register as a writer at all. ."

Wang Yang said: "It is indeed not possible to register now, but this does not explain the problem. It should be that Gu Yong has not opened the writer registration function for the time being. In fact, the functions of the starting point Huawen website may not be the only ones we see now. If my guess is correct, Gu Yong should gradually open up more functions."

Jian Yishen had to nod his head, Wang Yang said that the possibility was indeed very high.

Then, continue to think in my heart.

Suddenly, Jian Yishen's face changed. He thought of a problem that seemed to have serious consequences. He said: "Editor-in-chief, if it is true as you said, Gu Yong’s starting point, Huawen.com, has become a platform dedicated to serialization on the Internet. Many authors choose to serialize on it, and readers will also choose to pay for reading. So, this will have a big impact on the sales of our magazine."

Wang Yang sighed lightly and said, "This is exactly what I am worried about. However, we don't have to worry too much. If that is the case, it will definitely affect us, but the impact will not be too great. After all, ours Authors, market channels, readers’ reading habits, etc., are already very mature, and the impact will be relatively small, and the impact of magazine sales will not be much. Moreover, martial arts, including these existing categories, may not be suitable for Authors will not easily try serialization on the Internet. They will still publish serialization in physical books. However, after long enough, it may not be easy to say. The times are moving forward after all."

After hearing this, Jian Yishen thought about it carefully, nodded slowly, and said, "The editor-in-chief means that it is suitable for serialization on the Internet, should it be a fairy like "Zhu Xian"? Then, Gu Yong Is it to attract some authors to create the fairy tales, and then choose to serialize it on the starting point Huawen website? Moreover, as time goes by, this kind of fairy tales will become one of the mainstream, and then it will have an impact on the physical market. It caused a shock."

Wang Yang nodded and said, "Xiao Tang, that's exactly what you meant. However, what you said is not complete. It may not be only Xianxia that is suitable for serialization on the Internet. It is in the category of works on the homepage of the website. There are obviously many other types of classifications. I think Gu Yong will gradually complete those classifications. Those classifications are also suitable for serialization on the Internet. This time Gu Yong, I am afraid that he will have to do a big thing. Up!"

Jian Yishen was shocked. If it is as Wang Yang said, then Gu Yong will launch different types of brand new types one after the other.

This... This is too scary, right?

A fairy is already shocking. If there are more categories, how shocking should it be?

Jian Yishen couldn't imagine it, Gu Yong, it was really terrible!

After a while, Jian Yishen said again: "Editor-in-chief, what should our magazine do at that time?"

Wang Yang smiled and said, "Don't worry about this. What we just said is just our guess. Even if our guess is indeed true, it will take a long time for Gu Yong to realize it step by step. Even if that time comes, it doesn’t matter. The times are changing, and our magazine naturally needs to follow the times to make changes. As long as we can follow the development of the market, we will not be eliminated by the market.

Jian Yishen laughed after hearing this. Indeed, as long as he can follow the development of the market, he will not be eliminated by the market.

If you can't keep up with the development of the market, it will naturally be cruelly eliminated by the market.

This is true for magazines, and so are martial arts authors like them.

He doesn't need to worry about the magazine affairs. What he needs to worry about is his future development. He doesn't have the creativity of Gu Yong, but he can stand on the shoulders of giants.

Gu Yong had propped up the sky of martial arts for them before.

Now, perhaps it is time to prop up a new sky for them.

Sword One God thoughtfully.
