A week later...

Demonic City,

Qidian Chinese Network Headquarters Building, Editorial Department.

Today is Friday,

The plenary meeting was held as usual in the morning.

The main content of this meeting is to reconfirm the website and app recommendation ranking of this week's works.

Make sure that the works in the recommended positions in the next week do not have any interruptions, eunuchs, and chapters are blocked,

If there is such a work, you will get out of the recommendation list and then temporarily find a substitute work.

"Okay, the data statistics have been completed, the problem works of each group have been eliminated, and there are 14 recommendation positions left. Just as the 7 groups are allocated equally to give some potential works."

Xingchen, vice president and editor-in-chief of Qidian Group, speaks skillfully and will soon finish next week's website and app recommendation position.

No other people's opinion,

Xingchen's affairs have always been fair, and the atmosphere of the editors of Qidian Editorial Department is also relatively harmonious.

If you want to recommend a position to your author, just use the data to get it.

"Next, I will summarize the operation of Qidian Chinese Network in the past month."

Today is not only Friday, but also at the end of October.

"I won't say it in detail, the main site data is similar to last month."

"However, we are Qidian, the industry's number one online novel website, and the original novel website that has derived countless popular IPs. Our monthly active users are stuck at 10 million, and it has not increased for half a year. This is very dangerous!"

All the editors were shocked,

Something is going to happen!

"On the surface, we are still the largest leading website in the online literature market, but we know that if there is no new growth point, it will only go downhill after starting the point, and reform is imminent!"

"We can no longer guard our own home's three-point land. We must cast Qidian Novels and expand our user base to continue to dominate the Chinese online novel market."

"According to the latest data, the total monthly active users of all online novel platforms in China is only 20 million, and this number has also entered a bottleneck. We have seized 50% of the market share. It is already difficult to increase it further. We must find a new track, which is a new media!"

"Through new media channels, we can let people who have never read online novels see our novels. We don't rob the 20 million yuan, we want to eat the 1.4 billion yuan cake!"

After Xingchen's speech, the editors and editors below frowned.

This is not the first time Qidian has introduced new media channels.

The so-called new media refers to the current online media platform.

For example, WeChat, Weibo, headlines, post bars, etc.

Put the novel on it to attract readers to read it.

These platforms are all giants, especially WeChat, with more than 1 billion daily active users!

This is a big piece of cake. If some people can convert them into reading online novels,

Even if it's only 1%,

This is a huge increase for the start point!

Three months ago, everyone was eager to put the high-quality online articles that Qidian had saved over the years on various new media platforms.

Prepare to count money from various channels,

But the effect has always been poor, and there are few customers who have converted.

This caused a little frustration to the already proud Qidian editorial department.

Seeing everyone's faces slightly changed, Xingchen said sternly: "Our book has not made a name for itself in the last three months. This is not a problem of strategy, but a problem of books!"

"Come on, come on, look at the "No. 1 Greatest Writer in History" that was recommended last week. At the beginning, there are several ways to write the word "fen" in fennel beans. It was said 500 words. Who can read this if you haven't read online? Tell me, who can read this? Still laugh! The book you are pushing has the face to smile?"

At this time, the editor-in-chief of the second group, Styx came out to smooth things over.

"Hahaha~ The boss is right, the policy must be implemented resolutely, but... we have already launched all the books with the best results in recent years. They are all works with ten thousand orders, including many of them that have been made into TV series and movies, but not many people read them, and we are also worried. Boss."

Editor-in-chief Xingchen slapped the table and said:

"Can readers of new media be the same as those of our website! If the audience is the same, you don't need to recommend it, and you will come to our website to read books! You can't use the old tricks to invest in new markets! If you want to change, you need to reform!"

"Next week, each of your groups must select some new works that are far from the website style and put them out. New media needs fresh blood. Do you understand?"

The last sentence Xingchen said while slapped the table.

The editors and editors quickly said:

"I understand, boss!"

"I'll go down and search for new books now!"

"I'll check my submission email"

The meeting ended.

The editors returned to their own offices.

Group 2,

4 edits form a circle,

Editor-in-chief Styx lit a cigarette and took a deep breath.

"Hiss~ This time the boss is serious... It seems that the boss of the new media channel is determined to win. We have to find a way to get some good things, otherwise no one will want this year's year-end bonus."

"Xiaoxing, you are new to you, and your thinking is not limited. Recently, you have put aside your work and sign some new articles to the new media market. The resources can be appropriately tilted, right! I'll give you two extra recommendation positions this week."

The old editor doesn't like to do such thankless work.

If you do well, you will have no bonus. If you don’t do well, you will still take the blame.

Only assigned to new editors.

"oh!"

Xiaoxing took on this job without thinking much, and when he went back, he started looking for works in the new library.

But those words are always over and over again,

It seems that everyone is working on adaptation.

Very well written,

But...the good is not new,

OK average,

"Oh...if these books weren't so good."

Another round of flipping is that he will not buy new books this time, and he will directly look for books that have been rejected by other editors.

The public author's book is reviewed by each group. The first two editors are not good enough, and other editors can read it again.

But usually only new editors like him have time to read it.

I can’t finish reading the manuscripts submitted by the old editor.

Where is the garbage that others don’t want?

"Huh? "The Son-in-law of the Urban Dragon King"? A curious name, more than 70,000 words have been written..."

Xiaoxing found a post from the trash can of the library that was not approved by three old editors.

Then I looked around...

Unconsciously, I saw the last chapter,

Xiaoxing looked at the watch with unfulfilled pleasure. Half an hour had passed.

"Damn it! Why is the time... gone suddenly?"

"This is unscientific!"

An editor’s professional quality is to be able to review manuscripts quickly. You can see whether you can sign a contract from the first three chapters of the work.

I won’t read all the books that I haven’t signed, it’s a waste of time.

But this book made Xiaoxing unconsciously keep reading until the last chapter that he woke up.

I am still at work!

But Xiaoxing thought about it carefully, what content he had just read,

My mind is blank,

Apart from the protagonist's show-off, I didn't remember any distinctive characters, plots, and scenes.

"But...it's quite satisfying"

He became curious about the author called "Puding"

Then, Xiaoxing began to think about why the other three editors rejected such a book.
To be continued...
