They’re all reborn, what’s wrong with being a little more almighty?

Chapter 68: Copying books is actually very unreliable! (Seeking for further reading)

It is actually very common for reborn people to make money by copying books. If you don't copy books, you will be sorry for your status as a reborn person.

But in fact, this operation is quite unreliable.

It's not like Fan Xian wrote the poem when he copied the book. There are only a few words in the poem "Deng Gao".

A book can have hundreds of thousands of words at least, or millions of words at most. Readers can only memorize a content framework, and more powerful ones can memorize classic passages and add a few classic sentences. This is all you have to read. Several times.

Unless you really have the best memory, otherwise, after reading a book, after a while, you will not be able to remember the detailed content at all.

This is not only true for readers, but also for authors. It is impossible to remember all the contents of a book written by oneself. Sometimes when I look at the title, I will wonder, what is this chapter about?

There are real cases of this. For example, on the eve of the Beijing Winter Olympics, a reporter from the "People's Daily" interviewed an author and talked about the plot of the Winter Olympics in the author's "All-Around Athlete".

At that time, the silly author was confused, "Have you ever written about the Winter Olympics?" I don’t remember it at all!
Fortunately, this author knows how to talk nonsense and handle the interview.

This is still a famous work! You can get the Twelve Heavenly Kings with this book! It’s only been a few years, and I can’t even remember what I wrote!

The person who wrote the book can’t remember it, how do you expect the person who reads the book to remember it? Stop dreaming!

Unless you have very good writing skills, when you can remember the general outline of the story, you can write a book based on your own ability.

But then again, if you really have this writing skills, why would you use someone else’s framework? You can write your own book!

Zhang Wei is very self-aware. He knows that he is just a reader. Writing books really depends on copying.

"What are you copying? There is no point in copying ordinary best-selling books. You have to find a big IP in the future! Brother Devil, are you here?" Zhang Wei called the Devil.

"What's the deal?" the devil's voice sounded.

"I've been feeling bored lately and want to read a few novels to enrich myself."

"Then you should go to Qidian Chinese website, not me!" There is no trace of the devil's advertising placement.

"The novel I want to read is not available yet and will be released in two years, so I came to you."

"what do you want to see?"

"I want to watch "The Dead Man Blows Out the Lamp"!"

The devil immediately fell into silence.

"Brother Devil, tell me, don't you have everything there? You can even find papers on graphene. Isn't there such a famous novel?"

"What do you want me to say? Can you trade something valuable? For example, the talent of a certain outstanding person! For a net transaction like three melons and two dates, what price do you want me to quote?"

"Three melons and two dates? That's not true! "Dead Man Blows Out the Lamp" is a big IP!"

"But the books are not valuable. The set of books you want costs 21 yuan for a single book, and a set of eight books adds up to 8 yuan with free shipping! What is it if it's not San Gua Liang Zao?" The devil said in a very unhappy tone.

"Small profits but quick turnover! I'm a quick reader. I might finish it in two or three days. Then I'll trade other books with you and you'll make a profit." Zhang Wei continued to trick the devil.

After the devil complained a few more times, he finally reported the price of the transaction.

""Dead Man Blows Out the Lamp", a set of eight books, the first choice is a ten-hour life span; the second choice is to sleep for fourteen hours a day for five consecutive days; the third choice is to have severe kidney deficiency for fifteen days.

"I can understand the first two, but what the hell is kidney deficiency in the third one?"

"The literal meaning is that within fifteen days, symptoms such as urgency of urination, frequent urination, inability to urinate, insomnia and forgetfulness, soreness and weakness of the waist and knees, fatigue, hair loss, impotence and premature ejaculation will appear!" the devil explained slowly.

"This is a challenge to my male dignity!"

Zhang Wei thought for a while, and according to previous experiments, the cost of diseases can be treated with drugs, but there seems to be no short-term short-term cure for kidney deficiency. By the time the medicine takes effect, fifteen days will have passed.

"Brother Devil, I remember you said that the higher the value of the transaction, the higher the price, right?" Zhang Wei asked again.

"There is such a rule." "Do you have a pirated version of "Dead Man Blows Out the Lamp"? The pirated version is definitely cheaper than the original one!"

"Isn't it embarrassing! You have to look for pirated copies to read a novel? Is there any royal law? Is there any law?"

"Are there any Feng Xiaogang expression packs?" Zhang Wei chuckled, and then said: "Don't worry, why don't I support the genuine version?"

"That's right, choose one of the three. What price are you going to pay in exchange?" the devil asked.

Zhang Wei pondered for a few seconds and then asked: "Can I exchange it for an electronic version?"

"It can be exchanged, but the price will not change!"

"Okay, I will use ten hours of my lifespan to exchange for an electronic version of "Dead Man Blows Out the Lamp"!"

"You are actually willing to exchange your lifespan?" The devil's voice was surprised.

"I think this exchange condition is more cost-effective in terms of lifespan!" Zhang Wei replied.

"Is it a good deal? A ten-hour lifespan is not as good as fifteen days for a kidney deficiency, right? It's better for a kidney deficiency!"

"What do you know! A man's dignity is priceless! By the way, are you a male devil or a female devil?"

"You should call us devils by gender! Men are male devils, and women are female devils."

"Is that a male model? A female model? It turns out you are also employees of the club!"

……

The option of kidney deficiency was automatically blocked by Zhang Wei. He is only nineteen years old and has kidney deficiency? Urinary urgency, frequent urination, inability to urinate, and impotence and premature ejaculation are all symptoms that cannot be tolerated.

As for the first two options, ten hours of life is indeed more cost-effective than sleeping for fourteen hours a day.

Eight hours of sleep a day is enough for a normal person. A 19-year-old young man is more energetic and does not need to sleep a full eight hours at all.

Calculating this way is equivalent to six more hours of sleep every day, which is thirty hours in five days.

Not being able to do anything while sleeping is equivalent to wasting thirty hours of time. Rather than doing this, it is better to use up ten hours of life and still make a net profit of twenty hours.

Moreover, Zhang Wei directly obtained the electronic version from the devil, which also saved a lot of time. Otherwise, it would have taken dozens of hours to type the entire content of "Dead Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" on the computer.

After returning home, Zhang Wei plugged his USB flash drive into his computer, and a new document appeared inside, which was the electronic version of "Dead Man Blows Out the Lamp".

"The first part of "Dead Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" is Jingjin Ancient City. Let's test the waters with this first! Next, we should find a powerful publishing house."

Finding a publishing house is a technical job, and the publishing capabilities of the publishing house will directly affect the sales of books.

Zhang Wei inquired about several local publishing houses in Qinhai City and found that the scale was relatively average and there were not many sales channels. The key was that they ignored Zhang Wei!

Publishing houses in that era were basically state-owned and considered public institutions. Since it is within the system, there is no pressure to survive. If you complete some publishing task targets every year, you will be paid. As for whether the publication is popular or not, it is not that important.

If you find this kind of publishing house, you will definitely be ignored. Even if you publish a book at your own expense, you still have to humble yourself and beg others to do it.

The structural reform of China's publishing industry was nominally initiated in 2004. The central government decided that except for the People's Publishing House, all other publishing houses would be transformed into operating enterprises.

But in fact, the nationwide promotion of cultural system reform really started in 2009. The General Administration of Press and Publication provided a reform roadmap and timetable, and the publishing industry began to carry out drastic system reforms.

"It seems that we still need to find a publishing house with stronger commercial attributes!"

Zhang Wei looked at his bookshelf, where there were several novels by Han Han, all published by 21st Century Publishing House.

"Twenty-first Century Publishing House may be a good choice!"

　Thank you for reading. Old book friends who have read "Rebirth of Industrial Tycoon" should remember that at that time, I reported to everyone that "People's Daily" came for an interview. The reporter asked me, how did you get involved with the Winter Olympics and describe the Winter Olympics in "All-Around Athlete" At that time, I was really confused and didn't remember that I had written that thing at all. Therefore, the matter of being reborn and copying books is really unreliable. The author has personal experience, believe me!
