Selling Anti-piracy Protocol

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

It was no wonder that the proportion of people paying was so scary.

But Brother Dog did not understand. With all novels, pirated chapters were released at the same time as the pay-to-read chapters, and all of the site's other VIP novels had pirated chapters as well. Why did Jun Ci's novel not have any?

Brother Dog felt that the issue definitely came from the author.

So on Monday morning, when Jun Ci was in class, Brother Dog incessantly called for Jun Ci.

Dogtail Grass: Emperor, your novel's channels are selling well. Although it is still small, the pay to read ratio is very high.

Dogtail Grass: I want to ask you, do you know about piracy?

At this time, it was a rare moment where Jun Ci was not asleep and was listening to class while replying to him.

Emperor: I know

Piracy, isn't that just grabbing pay-to-read chapters and uploading them for free for others?

But in Jun Ci's eyes, spending money to read was a natural matter.

A book is created through an author's blood, sweat, and tears. Earning a corresponding remuneration was only natural.

Readers had the power of choice. If they disliked the book, they could choose not to read.

Since they chose to read, reading it was not expensive, so why would they be unwilling to fork out a cost that was less than the cost of a snack?

That was because China was not strict on intellectual copyright and left this fault for readers to exploit.

Although Jun Ci's word count was extremely fast with the help of Gu Lu and seemed extremely easy.

The plot and content were painstakingly created.

It required brainpower and energy, why should she take the short end of the stick and let others read her novel for free.

Gu Lu had investigated and done its homework, and had deleted all pirated chapters for Jun Ci's novel.

If readers wanted to continue reading, they had to recharge their Luo Du site currency to read.

People definitely had to fork out a little for this option.

Dogtail Grass: Then why doesn't your novel have any pirated chapters?

Emperor: I just blocked it.

Dogtail Grass: ….

Brother Dog was horrified when he saw the reply.

Those casual four words immensely shook Brother Dog.

Piracy was the biggest pain to many authors and websites.

But there were too many websites and too many tricks; it was impossible to completely avoid piracy.

Some pirating websites were even able to capture the author's latest content as quickly as the actual release.

Such actions undoubtedly affected the author's hard work.

Just imagine if you painstakingly created something but gave it to others to admire for free.

Authors relied on website traffic flow, but imagine the lack of compensation for free chapters due to piracy.

Throughout the years, many official novel websites had strived to block piracy, but with minimal results.

But now, an author had just casually said that he had blocked it, and was actually able to block out all pirated content.

What did that mean?

This meant that the world of novels was about to change!

Dogtail Grass: How did you do it?

Emperor: You won't understand even if I said it. Come to think about it, where's my remuneration?

Dogtail Grass: ..can we talk about official business first, I will immediately get the finance team to do it!!

Although he was salty from Jun Ci's words, Brother Dog discovered a huge secret from the conversation. Not only did he find the finance team to handle the remuneration, he looked for the website's executive.

Jun Ci naturally knew what Brother Dog was up to.

She smiled and spoke to Gu Lu: "Gu Lu, looks like we're rich."

Gu Lu naturally knew what Jun Ci meant.

Compiling an anti-piracy protocol was a simple matter to Gu Lu, but it was impossible with China's current technology.

What if Jun Ci was willing to sell this technology?

From 15 Feb 2020, Coins spent on books that aren't selected will be refunded within 30 days. However, Fast Passes will not be refunded.

The selected book will have a mark on the corner of the book cover in 30 days to indicate continuation.

Thank you for your understanding.
