Rebirth, Starting from 2005

Chapter 43: On the shelves, the first order exceeds 9,000

\u0026On the 1st, National Day.

This day is also the day when Yan Xin and Chen Li collaborated on the fantasy novel "Fights Break the Sphere".

This day was the day when he changed shifts. Yan Xin didn't sleep much after get off work in the morning, so he slept for an hour or two at night, and then came to the night shift.

Usually this time is a good time to sleep, but on this day, Yan Xin couldn't sleep at all.

He works here, and Chen Li updates novels in the Internet cafe.

He didn't know what would happen to the data on the shelves of this book.

This is related to whether he can get rid of the life of a security guard, whether he can earn his first pot of gold, and whether he can have enough funds to enter the stock market and earn more money.

How much, in fact, he is not very sure, because this is not 2010, but 2005.

The current online novel market has not reached the latter stage. Most people do not have the conditions to surf the Internet. Among those who surf the Internet, most of them have not developed the habit of paying to read novels.

At one o'clock in the morning, he received a call from Chen Li. Chen Li's voice on the phone was very excited:

"Yan Xin, within an hour of being on the shelf, our book's first order has reached 2300, and the average order has also exceeded 2000! Moreover, more than 100 monthly tickets have been voted for, and now we are number one on the monthly ticket list!"

Twenty-four hours a day does not mean that the average booking in the first hour can reach tens of thousands, which is not that exaggerated.

Before it goes on the shelves, the author will announce when it will be on the shelves, and many readers will also wait for this time point to make a data for their favorite authors.

So generally speaking, the subscription in the first hour will be relatively high, and some may even be half of the subscription on that day.

Generally speaking, the subscription for the first hour will be about one-third to one-fourth of the subscription for the whole day.

"Now the online literature market is still too small..."

Yan Xin thought so in his heart.

There is still a big gap between this and his requirements.

However, being able to do this is already excellent.

"Then update two more chapters," he said to Chen Li, "Go back to sleep after the update, you've been in the Internet cafe for so long, don't ruin your body."

"I'll go to bed for another two chapters," Chen Li said, "I'm so excited now, I can't sleep at all!"

Yan Xin felt that this young man was trying too hard, so he tried to persuade him a few words, but if he couldn't persuade him, he could do nothing more.

It's not a big problem to stay up late occasionally, as long as you don't stay up like this every day.

Moreover, Chen Li took two days off, so he had enough time to rest.

With such a subscription result in the first hour, Yan Xin was relieved.

It's not as awesome as he imagined in the original time and space, but in the 2005 web environment, it's pretty good to have such a result.

He didn't know the data of other authors in the same period, but he didn't think it would be much higher.

In this way, according to what Chen Li said, the two parties will share the income of the manuscript fee equally. Based on such data, the income brought by this book is enough to solve the predicament he is currently facing.

On the night shift, he works on a patrol post, which is a good post where he can be lazy and sleep.

I didn't sleep before because I couldn't sleep at all because I was thinking about the things on the shelves.

Now that he has obtained the data from Chen Li, he is finally relieved.

After answering the call, I found a place to sleep and fell asleep within a few minutes.

After sleeping for more than an hour, I was woken up by the phone again.

At first glance, it was still Chen Lilai's call.

"Yan Xin, the first order of our novel has exceeded 3,000, and the average order has also exceeded 2,500! And there are more than 200 monthly tickets, and we are still number one!"

The average booking in the first hour was 2,000, and the average booking in the next hour or so only increased to 500. It seems a little less, but in fact, it is already very good to have such an increase in the middle of the night.

No wonder Chen Li was so excited to call him.

Yan Xin understood his behavior and said, "I just said, your book will explode. If that's the case, then you can post another chapter and go to bed after posting."

This time, Chen Li was not stubborn, and added another chapter, and added a paragraph at the end of the chapter, thanking the readers for their support, and then said that he couldn't hold on any longer and was going to bed.

This time, Chen Li also slept soundly, and did not wake up naturally until twelve o'clock at noon.

At this time, Yan Xin also woke up.

During the eight-hour night shift, Yan Xin slept for more than four hours. After get off work, he had breakfast, took a shower, and continued to sleep until twelve o'clock at noon, which was almost enough.

The two went to the cafeteria to eat together. After the meal, Yan Xin was dragged by Chen Li to the Internet cafe, where they watched various statistics of "Fights Break the Sphere".

Mainly subscription data.

When they looked at it, it was 12:40 noon, and the background data showed that the first order had already exceeded 5,000, and the average order had reached 4,200.

Three more chapters were added later, which obviously lowered the data.

On the recommendation list, it still ranks first, and has expanded its lead.

On the monthly ticket list, the number of monthly tickets has reached more than 300, close to 400, still number one on the list.

Chen Li's expected result for this novel was around 4,000 to 5,000 orders. It's only after 12 o'clock at noon, and the average order has reached 4,200. It's no problem to reach his goal within 24 hours.

And it's only the first day.

As long as you don't write a collapse, there will be traffic entering this book in the future, and the average subscription will only increase.

At this time, he began to feel that Yan Xin's small goal of 10,000 average was really possible to achieve.

The average booking has increased by 2,000, what else can I say?

Immediately, two more chapters were updated, and at the end of the last chapter, the current subscription data in the background was reported to the readers.

At the beginning, five chapters were released, with an average order of 4,000, and another four chapters were added, plus a chapter that was added for a monthly ticket of more than 200, and a total of ten chapters were issued.

The total number of words has reached more than 37,000 words.

The two calculated their accounts.

The current subscription price is high V is two cents per thousand words, and the initial V is three cents per thousand words. For a subscription, the author can get about one cent for every thousand words. More than 37,000 words, not counting fractions, at least 30,000 6,000 words can be billed, and a flat-rate author can get thirty-six cents.

Based on the average subscription of 4,000 yuan, the income for this day is more than 1,400 yuan.

The two share equally, and each has more than 700 yuan.

And their current salary is only 900 yuan a month.

After deducting board and lodging, etc., only six or seven hundred yuan was left in my hands.

One day is equal to their monthly income.

——Of course it is impossible for Chen Li to update so many words every day, but there is another point to be noticed. Today is not over yet, and only half a day has passed, and this subscription will continue to increase.

After calculating this account, Yan Xin is fine, he had expected it a long time ago, and even felt that it was a little small.

Chen Li was different.

There is a feeling of being hit by happiness.

He murmured:

"Writing novels makes so much money, so what do I do as a security guard?"

Then I asked Yan Xin:

"You said, can I quit my job?"

Yan Xin also hopes that he can write full-time, otherwise he will really ruin himself by typing while working.

So he nodded: "I think you can resign."

Chen Lidao: "That's okay, I'll fill out the resignation form when the No. 8 management office goes to work."

According to the regulations of Fengxiang Property Company, if you resign according to the normal procedures, you can get all the wages you should get.

If you resign without going through the procedures, it will be regarded as an urgent resignation, and seven days' wages will be deducted.

Yan Xin was stunned for a moment, and thought to himself: "You are a newly promoted Internet writer who can earn tens of thousands a month, do you still care about the salary of the seven days as a security guard?"

I want to remind, but I also think that frugality is a virtue, so there is no need to corrupt this virtue.

He was very happy with the excellent grades in the novel. When he was in the dormitory at eight or nine in the evening, he sent two messages to the stray cat in reincarnation:

"I have some good news for you. My friend's novel is on the shelves today, and the grades are very good. The manuscript fee is more than 1,000 a day."

"It's a project we've collaborated on, and I feel like my day is coming."

Usually, the stray cats in reincarnation would be online at this time, and the two of them could chat a little bit.

But this time he sent it, and he didn't receive a reply from the other party until he went to work.

"Did she go on a trip during the National Day holiday?"

Yan Xin thought so.

Within half an hour of going to work, Chen Li from the Internet cafe called him again, and said excitedly:

"Yan Xin, now our first order for this book has reached 9,000, and the average order is more than 7,000! I don't want to wait until the 8th to fill out the resignation form, I will quit now!"
