Ako si Apple, katulad lang din ng mga ibang simpleng babae. Hilig ko ang magbasa ng mga Online Novels. At naging boring ang romance life ko dahil sa mga Online Novels. Halos napuno na ng eyebags ang mga mata ko sa kakabasa at isang gabi paggising ko ay nasa loob na ako ng isang Nobela. Ang malupit pa don. Hindi ako ang Bida!

Those students who knew the nature of Zhao Youyue like her ex-deskmate, Zhou Fang, felt Zhao Youyue was incredible. Zhou Fang knew that Zhao Youyue would always slack off right before an exam. Usually, teachers would give time to students for their revision, and normal Zhao Youyue would use all that free time to play with her phone.
Right now, not so normal Zhao Youyue was using every single second for her revision.
Zhao Youyue reminded Zhou Fang of how it was last final exams. She had taken pity on Zhao Youyue for burning the midnight oil right before the exam. She certainly did not expect Zhao Youyue to ace the final exams with flying colors...
This time, Zhou Fang did not anyhow jump into conclusions, she certainly did not want Zhao Youyue surpassing her this time. Zhao Youyue might have been lucky enough to surpass her once, and she would need to reconsider her capabilities if Zhao Youyue manages to do that twice.
Finally, the monthly exams had commenced, according to schedule. Zhao Youyue was full of confidence when she activated her "Xu Jing card," because she knew she had done her revision perfectly. The main point was, she had paid attention during lectures in classes, so she never missed out on any information.
She felt the exams going smoothly for her, this time. Apparently, the toughest subject was English, but this did not pose a threat to Zhao Youyue who had the "Yu Shengfan card", and she even thinks that she could get full marks for English. As for the science subjects, mathematics, physics or chemistry exams, they were all too easy for her.
Zhao Youyue believed that she could ace the exam without activating the "Xu Jing's card," because she had a perfect memory retention of everything that had occurred during class.
As Zhao Youyue wanted to brag about her results to her parents after the exams, she realized that her room already had a complete set of utilities for live broadcasting, ready for her to use at any moment.
Zhao Jiayi was smiling at his daughter, asking whether she was happy with this pleasant surprise.
Zhao Jiayi had decided that no matter what results his daughter gets, he would give his daughter a surprise, because he knew that she was changing, and she would shine even brighter in the future.
In fact, when Zhao Jiayi saw how serious his daughter was preparing for the exam, he was already satisfied with what he saw. He was not so fixated on the end results as he was in the process.
Of course, Zhao Youyue was pleased about it, to see her family being so supportive of her being a livestreamer. Her parents probably believed that she would not become a particularly notable streamer, but she would prove it with her 'skills'.
"Thanks for the pleasant surprise, but I will not start using these before my results are revealed. When I say that I can get into the top five in class, I will get into the top five!" Zhao Youyue replied.
Zhao Jiayi gave his daughter a big thumbs-up.
Zhao Youyue had been focusing on her studies recently, and this had caused her violin to go out of practice, so she decided to use the free time after lunch during school to practice.
Zhao Youyue had a solid foundation in playing the violin, because she had the magical "Xu Jing card". Whenever she allows herself to be taken over, a familiar feeling would flow through her body. Xu Jing can definitely play a song perfectly, but Zhao Youyue could make the music even more livelier with her emotions. Even though her musical talent was not able to make her a master musician, it was much better than the dull musician that Liu Yuxi always scoffed at.
One afternoon at the beginning of April, Zhao Youyue carried her violin case to the cherry blossom lane in her school. The cherry blossoms were blooming gloriously at that moment, and pink petals were falling down from the trees as if she was in a wonderland of flowers. Zhao Youyue let the peace and serenity flow over her. She then took her violin out of the case and started playing it under a cherry blossom tree. From a distance, a brisk yet soothing song could be heard.
If Teacher Liu Yuxi was here, listening to Zhao Youyue playing her violin, she would definitely change her opinion of Zhao Youyue's talents.
A normal person might not be able to judge the quality of the song that Zhao Youyue played, but they would definitely get influenced by the way she played the violin. With the elegant temperament that was spreading out of her body, her presence was extremely bold at that moment!
As if Zhao Youyue had transformed into a musical elf, playing a song under the flying petals of cherry blossoms in April. Unfortunately, nobody was here to witness her beauty.
Zhao Youyue was completely relaxed, as if the music had washed her heart like flowing water.
Of course, there are always some lucky ones in this world.
Han Leng had decided to finish up his web novel in Qidian which was called "Conquer the world in Online games", not because he was not able to write anymore. An experienced web novel writer would know if he can continue milking something out of a title. As long as it is interesting, readers would be reluctant to see the end of that novel, as much as their authors.
Han Leng was wrapping up this still interesting webnovel, because he had received an opportunity to sign a contract with a magazine. It wasn't like he wanted to create a literary work to impress Zhao Youyue.
Ever since Han Leng knew that his best friend Chen Haoran liked Zhao Youyue too, he had decided to avoid her completely. He laughed at himself, because he was never close to Zhao Youyue to begin with, all that was all his wishful thinking.
In fact, Han Leng had never treated Zhao Youyue as more than just a classmate, he had always ridiculed and insulted Zhao Youyue as a way of flaunting his alpha masculinity, thinking that it was hilarious and cool. Other girls would have already hated him to the guts for displaying such attitude. He believed that it was the perfect flirtation, when actually, he was just a bad mouthed person who loved to show off. Only Zhao Youyue could bear with his superiority complex and pride.
Equally hilarious was his reason for keeping his distance with Zhao Youyue; he had already set his heart in stone, certain that Zhao Youyue had officially become Chen Haoran's girlfriend. He would be "betraying" his best pal if he decides to approach Zhao Youyue. He felt proud of himself for doing so, thinking that he had done something great for his best friend...
Such was the awkward person, Han Leng. Nobody can save him from being "forever alone" for the rest of his life.
Han Leng had finished up his novel, because he had received the opportunity to sign a contract with "Mengya" magazine. They promised him 300 RMB for every thousand words, and they hoped that he would exclusively write for "Mengya," because he had won the award for writing a new conceptual composition in a competition when he was in middle school. He was the youngest person to ever receive this first-rate award. He used to avoid becoming a traditional writer, because his father worked in the cultural bureau and had many contacts and available resources, but he wanted to forge his own path by writing web novels when he was younger.
As he fell behind the demanding pace of web novels, it occurred to him that web novels were not suitable for him to flaunt his writing talent. Thus, he decided to sign the contract with "Mengya".
This would also severe any contact with Zhao Youyue who was deeply involved in web novels too.
"Mengya" wanted Han Leng to write a romance novel. The more satirical it was, the better, and it would be perfect if he could add some pure romance elements.
After Han Leng finished his lunch, he did not go back to his dorm for a nap. He could only wander around in school to find inspirations for his new book.
Luckily, he had stumbled across Zhao Youyue.
Unfortunately, he can never ever forget about her.
Zhao Youyue was wearing a standard school uniform while playing the violin under the cherry blossom tree with elegance. No words can describe how Han Leng felt at the moment, he felt extremely bad for not picking up any instruments of his own.


An introverted girl has had enough of the isolation inadvertently formed by her solitary nature. Things changed when she discovers that she has the ability to transverse across the fabric of our universe into the dimensions of multiple storylines. Not only do these storylines leave her with invaluable lessons - they also impart a portion of their power - if she is deserving of it. The time has come for Zhao Youyue to change her fate. Never again, will she remain as a Side-Character!

Private editors - pros take from 17 to 30 dollars for 1700 words.

Prices for editing 1000 words fluctuate according to Google from 2 to 15 dollars. It is likely that older schoolchildren and college students of native speakers or in whom English is the second language (the legacy of empires) undertakes such editing. The level and quality of the translation will undoubtedly be higher (ours in which English is the third language). But since our level of knowledge is not very good, how can we evaluate the quality of editing? Need means another expert who would test the knowledge of the editor before starting work and paying. And this is an additional cost.

The easiest option (until you make money for a paid editor) is a machine editor, but not everything is smooth there either.

The second option is to learn English grammar yourself (but it takes time and money).

The third option is to find a free editor, but it will edit you from the kindness of sincere Chapter 5! You should be very grateful to him for this. After all, he spent his time on you and shared valuable knowledge.

And so I'm not sure that you will find an editor who can read all the chapters - 100-200-300 with the number of words from 80,000 to 300,000 for your simple thanks. I have not met such people yet. But probably they are?


I had an idea, in 2018 I am going to popularize the subject of the Silk Ooty. But in fact, all authors write what is close to their spirit, what they read or want to share their thoughts with others. And others just make a little money.

Moreover, writing is far from the most reliable and fastest way to earn money. If you also do not know the word very well.

In fact, it's faster to earn money by selling ads on YouTube or by taking food photos, although, of course, the sales hit has already passed.

Having a camera for $ 500-900, another $ 1,000 for gadgets, such as tripods, backlights. shadows, and other things, plus quality photo courses for $ 1000. If you have $ 3,000, then in half a year you will learn how to shoot so that your photographs will take "drains" at first, the authors will receive the first months from $ 50 to $ 200. For the second year, from 500 to 700 dollars. At the same time, they cook, sell their creations - jams, pastries, sell their ideas on healthy eating. Someone prepares healthy breakfasts or o-Bentos in offices, the prices are naturally higher, they are calculated for the rich office workers of foreign enterprises, state-owned companies.

Some go to flea markets, where they buy old dishes from their grandmothers for a penny, and then they sell it, bringing a little beauty for money in their online stores.

Money is flowing. Some go to Japan or South Korea to open online stores and make money again. Selling their products in their homeland, and some special items from their homeland in Japan or Korea. By the way, here you can write such a short story about different ways to make money. The fjord of short stories. Chapters 60-80.

Quick ways to make money!

In the meantime, I have three ideas to write new short stories. But to start writing new, not finishing the old, somehow does not look quite right. This will only show readers that the author is scattered with ideas, and at the same time, without burning desire, to bring the story to the end.

My Bro on the Tao is right if he really decided to start writing a new story, finish the old one. Even if the end is far-fetched, not entirely logical, but this is the end of the story. If desired, then you can write further if of course there are new thoughts.

So far I have 4 completed novels. You can write another 53 chapters and complete one novel, another rather than a novel, but a tool for evaluating, expressing thoughts about writing novels. discussion of issues. The third in the municipality can be completed now and then write the second season since it was more likely a short story. Then only the main novel will remain and you can start writing small stories voicing new ideas.

And later they will rewrite the story of adventurers and treasure hunters, compiling the story with already completed storybooks. And thus write a good romance with romance, cooking, adventure, and treasures.

Then it remains only to find a good editor. But the prof will take about $ 1,000 for a book of 80,000 words and not the pros, is a student native speaker from Asia probably 200-300 dollars?
This is considered a very good salary for us for 1 month of work.

Well, if at the same time he agrees to edit, and his editing will be at least average. Then one could try. But for now, it's all just a dream.

In all likelihood, I will slowly finish some novels in order to move on to new stories.

Thoughts of why and why stories are written.

All the same English, he has not improved in 18 days.

I'll figure something out, try to correct the text.

This is a work of art. Any resemblance to real people or real events is purely coincidental.

Wei Chu's home was more modest than what Su Le had expected. It was a small villa with two-stories. Outside, there was a garden that was not too big, on one side were plants and flowers and on the other, some vegetables that were planted.

Inside the villa, it was very tidy and refined but it was missing a homey feeling. Su Le blanked out as she stood at the entrance. As a single woman entering a man's home, she would be violating the number one rule of women's personal safety.

A pair of slippers was placed in front of her before Su Le focused again. Wei Chu stood back up, with a warm smile on his good-looking face, "Change into the slippers. It would be more comfortable."

"Ah, thank you," Su Le took off her high heels and looked at the fluffy slippers. There was even a cute lamb printed on the slippers. The pair of slippers seemed new and unworn.

Wei Chu placed the ingredients on a counter and turned towards the living room to ask Su Le, "Would you like any tea or coffee?"


Su Le sat on the sofa, feeling a bit uneasy, she moved her fringe, "Is there fruit juice?" Alright, she was now regretting her decision to follow Wei Chu just to get a free meal since the current atmosphere was really awkward …

Giving a glass of orange juice to Su Le, Wei Chu seemed to have noticed Su Le's predicament so he handed her the TV's remote control together with it, "Watch some TV first, the meal will be done soon." After speaking, he also put some melon seeds in front of her before going back into the kitchen.

Switching on the TV, there were only adverts, senseless variety shows, and the 'I love you, you love me' TV dramas. Su Le changed the channel many times and finally felt some disappointment towards China's TV dramas. When she saw the female lead treating the elders with no respect, she had given up hope. If the plot was no good, it could still be saved but for a female lead to be foolish and have no manners, Su Le had already given up on the drama.

Really can't stand dramas that teach kids the wrong things. Su Le went towards the kitchen and saw Wei Chu washing Enoki mushrooms. Wei Chu suited the apron he was wearing, it gave off a feeling of a "good man" on him.

Su Le rolled up her sleeves and went towards the sink and took the pak choi that Wei Chu had prepared to the sink to wash them.

In response, Wei Chu busily said, "It's not a problem, you can go watch TV. If not, then you can go upstairs. The study is on the far right-hand side, you can go on the internet instead, I'll call you when the food is ready."

Nimbly washing the vegetables, Su Le smiled, "Let me help. I feel uncomfortable doing nothing. At least when I eat another bowl of rice I won't feel embarrassed."

Wei Chu put the enoki mushrooms into a sieve and placed it under the running water. Then he took some peppers that have already been cleaned and skillfully cut them into thin strips.

Seeing Wei Chu's cutting skills can be compared to her family's Empress Dowager. "Do you usually cook for yourself?" Su Le said with admiration.

"I rarely cook for myself. Most of time I'm out on business or working late, so I'll eat out or order take out." He placed the cut up peppers onto a plate and started to cut the mushrooms.


"Mushrooms also need to be cut?" Su Le confusedly asked, "Saute mushrooms and meat?"

Wei Chu chuckled, "No, put the mushrooms with the steamed pork to increase the pork's natural taste."

Su Le silently took the pak choi out from the water and watched chef Wei display his cooking skills. She firmly decided not to express her opinions in an area she was not good in.

When the dishes were completed, Su Le calmly swallowed her saliva. Steamed pork, saute shredded meat with peppers, enoki and ham soup, barbeque ribs and sweet vinegar pak choi, although all the dishes were simple, to Su Le, these dishes look tastier than the beautiful dishes from the restaurant.

Eating the spicy and satisfying steamed pork, Su Le was using a napkin to wipe her mouth while thinking this person may seem to like to put on airs but who knew he was also good at cooking. All these dishes was made really well. Since she entered university, she rarely had the chance to taste such genuine Sichuan dishes.

"Originally I wanted to make a few more dishes but there wasn't enough time today. In the future, I will make more for you to try," Wei Chu smiled lightly as he watched Su Le eating very eagerly while he hadn't moved his chopsticks much.

"Alright," Su Le agreed subconsciously, but immediately after she shut her mouth and bit her chopsticks and awkwardly laughed, "I shouldn't trouble you." Su Le, you foodie, why do you always lose your brain whenever food is mentioned?

"It's ok, wait until next week I will properly make a feast for you. You can let me know if there is something particular you want to eat," Having achieved his goal, Wei Chu's mood was great and he picked some sweet vinegar pak choi but he barely touched the steamed pork dish.

Su Le's lips lifted, Da Ge, you actually don't need to be so proactive. She looked at Wei Chu's smile and she was unable to open her mouth to decline.

After eating the spicy steamed pork and the drinking some fragrant enoki mushroom and ham soup, Su Le felt her stomach was completely satisfied. She went to stand at the kitchen entrance and watched as Wei Chu washed the dishes. She didn't know why but she suddenly remembered the phase "I will only eat and won't clean up."

Aware that her thoughts were drifting too far, Su Le turned back to sit on the sofa again and switched on the TV, she happened to watch a scene where the female lead held onto a dish and spoke to the male lead, "The meal is ready, come and try my cooking."

Automatically, Su Le replaced the female lead with Wei Chu, her hand trembled as she held the remote and quickly changed the channel to see a female sitting by the window, "The first day I didn't see you, I really missed you. The second day I didn't see you, I really, really missed you …"

Silently changing the channel again, this time there were two hosts telling corny jokes, and Su Le relaxed on the sofa. She felt sleepy and thought her eyes seemed dry.

She rubbed her eyes and carried on changing the channel, before giving up finally. She tilted her body but accidentally hit her head on the coffee table with a bang.

"What happened?"

Su Le lifted her head to look at Wei Chu who rushed out from the kitchen, appearing worried. She touched the glass table and thought to herself what he was so worried about? Even if her head was a bit harder, she still won't be able to break the glass table.

"Tired?" Wei Chu gave Su Le a cup of tea. Since he lived alone, it was not proper to let Su Le rest in the guest room and he was afraid the person in front of him will misunderstand his intentions. He glanced at the TV screen, "Want to go to the study room and go on the internet? I also have some work to do. After the evening meal, I will take you home." He didn't want to send Su Le back home now, as he was not willing to part with her yet.

Su Le rubbed her eyes and agreed, "mmm, that's fine." She drank some tea before following Wei Chu to go upstairs.

In Su Le's mind, she thought business people, especially, bosses' study room could not be entered so easily and that those people also didn't like others going into their study. After all, that room would contain sensitive information.

When they entered the study, Su Le found the room was different from her expectations because she discovered there were romance novels that girls liked on the bookshelves. She took a book from the shelf, "These belong to …. your girlfriend?" Looking at the titles, all these novels are best sellers from the past two years, there was even a novel that she had written.

Wei Chu took out a laptop and blankly replied to Su Le, "I don't have a girlfriend."

Putting the book back in its original place, Su Le looked at Wei Chu in surprise, could it be he, a young master, also liked to read romance novels?!

"Maybe my future wife will like these novels?" Wei Chu sat at his desk and turned on the computer, "So if later she comes in, she won't need to worry about finding a book to read."

Su Le remained silent for a while and Wei Chu looked towards her, "What's wrong?"

Su Le shook her head, "Nothing." Grabbing the laptop and signing into QQ. She pondered if she should tell him that when these hard copy of novels were already published online. Also, these novels were published as a series online, so he only need to spend some Yuan to become a VIP member to read them all. Should she tell him?

After some thoughts, Su Le decided to generously not to let Wei Chu know since he was such a considerate man. How can she hurt his nice intentions?

Opening a group chat, she noticed that there was currently a Missy howling about finding a man.

"It would great if we could grow a man from a seed."
Su Le calmly typed, "I know a child can be grown in your stomach if there's a seed."

In the group chat, there were many agreeing with this statement and the following chats were single Gu Niangs howling out about being single.

The people in this group chat were all good friends that Su Le met from writing novels. Normally, in the chat they were all talking about nonsense but in the real world they were all good students or career women. In the group, there were people who earn ten thousands of Yuan a month and there also people like Su Le who only earns a few thousands.

That's not right. Currently, Su Le is unemployed, thus she was definitely the poorest person in the group chat.

While chatting with her friends, she also visited forums and looked at some gossip and ghost stories. Finally, she no longer felt tired after reading an exciting ghost story.

The story was short, but there were quite a number of people who commented on it. Su Le scrolled through them for a while, but many of their comments were shamefully left with no replies. After looking through it, she moved her cursor to the X at the top corner of her screen and clicked it. There was one comment in the section that wrote "for those who see and do not reply, you shall be cursed by being pressed ten thousand times" which she just blatantly ignored.

Wei Chu lifted his head from the computer screen and looked at the person sitting on the sofa while playing on a laptop. The smile on his lips can be considered honest.

At 6:30pm, Wei Chu drove Su Le home after the evening meal and when Su Le got out of the car, he quickly said, "I'll pick you up next weekend," and stepped on the accelerator, speeding away.

Su Le stared at the black Audi, before touching her chin. This Wei Chu was surprisingly very hospitable.

Honestly, Su Le felt a bit uncomfortable freeloading off of him.

How about taking some apples with her next week as a gift? Never mind. Recently, apple prices have increased to eight Yuan for half a kilogram, it's better to buy some oranges instead. They only cost three Yuan and she could choose the best ones as well.

He was confused, so he asked, “I have a car, a house, good-looks and money. What am I lacking in?” She replied, “All those attributes are what men use to lure mistresses. So, which of those attributes is a good characteristic?” Ashamed, he reflected, “I am loyal to one and I can host and cook. I can make the bed and accompany you when you wish to go out.” She replied bitterly, “I shall, reluctantly, accept you then.” Good men would not let the women they love fight with the mistress but get rid of them on their own.

Upon hearing Shiroishi Kazuma's words, Ko Gohon's eyes instantly lit up and he anxiously said, "Uncle Kazuma, I've realized my mistakes. Quickly teach me, what do I have to do?!"
"Currently, the previous bet is already over. We'll just ignore it and not consider it any further." Shiroishi Kazuma slowly said, "So, now, we mainly have to focus on the online novel website.
"According to your bet with Hong Dali, the person with the most number of daily updated books two weeks later wins. If it's according to your idea to increase the flat fees of the authors at the novel website and find ghostwriters to increase the number of novels, all these can more or less be done, but it's still far from enough!
"In this day and age, channels are the king.
"Number one, get through all the possible channels of the novel website and liaise with our joint venture companies in Heavenly State. As long as they are enterprises related to the internet, they must all advertise on the novel website.
"Number two, liaise with the telecommunication companies in Heavenly State and get them to send messages to prompt people to read our novels!
"Number three, liaise with all the web portals in Heavenly State, including Weibo, and open all channels to read our novels.
"Number four, hold a free of charge reading day to attract those readers that are used to reading free of charge books.
"Number five, hype things up and expose our Feng Yun website's remunerations for our authors on all the websites related to novels!
"Number six, liaise with the TV stations to interview our authors and create more exposure for the website!" 
Upon hearing Shiroishi Kazuma's suggestions, Ko Gohon's face glowed as he firmly smacked his thigh. "Understood. I'll get these done right away!"
…
In the next few days, advertisements about Feng Yun website suddenly emerged everywhere. Advertisements for Feng Yun website were all over all the various websites in Heavenly State.
"Feng Yun website is the largest local reading base, free of charge reading and downloading of the novels. No pop-up ads, simple and clean webpage. Come to Feng Yun website to find good novels!"—Haoche Website. 
"Feng Yun website is an online novel website with no pop-up ads, providing the latest and best novels for all novel lovers. Come to Feng Yun website to read novels!"—Dream Paris.
"Feng Yun website provides you with various literature works with no advertisements to spoil your reading experience. It's a website which creates an elegant environment to read novels for all friends who are literature lovers, and the content includes various popular novels."—Guodian Online. 
…
On smartphones.
Countless people throughout Heavenly State had received messages about Feng Yun website's novels.
"We welcome you to the free of charge reading column, Feng Yun website provides all kinds of awesome and exciting novels." 
"[Urban] Personal Show: My Best Grade Missy."

"[History] Great Waves Again in the Court: Big Fatuous Ruler."
"[Urban] Exceedingly Beautiful Superior: Pretty Tenant."
"[Fantasy] Wuzun Sword Slashes The Vault Of Heaven: Wudao Vault of Heaven."
Countless curious readers clicked on the advertisements, and after taking a few glances, they were satisfied with what they saw. "Mm, these book recommendations are not bad. It's quite good to kill time. This Feng Yun website is quite brilliant!"
Of course, there were those unimpressed as well. "Tsk, such a tacky way of promoting books. Now that there is the smartphone reading app produced by Young Master Hong Dali, who would still want to read these. Zhong Dian website is the king!"
…
On Xinhai Weibo—
Drunk and leaning on the fence of the pavilion, Meng Ziying Weibo Talent: "Feng Yun website's novel 'Yifan's trouble' is very well written. I like how Yifan bullies Shaowan, serves him right for bullying Xiaochao… Mm, amusing as usual, this work is quite good." 
Douban Doujiao Doubao Weibo Talent: "Feng Yun website's novels are quite good. I read novels there the whole day today. The books are not bad! Worth taking a look at them, I strongly recommend!
@Tangdou-like unlucky person: Feng Yun website is not bad, quickly gather and take a look @Dark Building Lonely Spirit 
@Dark Night Vigilante 
@Zuiyu Changwan_Shifu Calls Me Xiaowan @Muying Huange_Little Angel Of The Wolf Master 
@Fleeting Time At Finger Tips."
"Feng Yun website rises strongly, regarding the rise of online literature."—Soulang.
"Earth-shaking big scheme, about the counterattack of Feng Yun website."—Easy Net.
"Small online novel, big wealth! Feng Yun website's powerful rise!"—Dongfang Wealth.
"Read novels, go to Feng Yun website. Write novels, still go to Feng Yun website."—Tianjing's Plaza.
…
In the various readers' group chats.
"These two days, there are so many free books to read on Feng Yun website. I've discovered a few good ones."
"Really, then I'll go and take a look too."
"Of course it's true, it writes that the books are free of charge for a limited period of time!"
"Not bad, not bad. This website is doing pretty well!"
…
On the largest local online novel forum.
"Overwhelming amount of subscriptions! Feng Yun website with all kinds of awesomeness!"
"Zhong Dian or Feng Yun? A newbie feels that Feng Yun is still better!"
"Please help, a newcomer wanting to know whether it's better to go to Feng Yun or Zhong Dian? I personally feel that Feng Yun is better, I can earn quick money."
"Zhong Dian wants to defeat Feng Yun just by relying on a smartphone app, does Feng Yun know about this?"
…
At the TV station.
"Hello, hello, as a Great God-level author on Feng Yun website, may I know how much can your monthly earnings reach?"
"Earnings, this… Around 20 to 30 thousand per month is still fine."
"So much? Then you must be one of those people with the highest earnings on Feng Yun website, right?"
"No! How is it possible that my earnings are so high. My fingers are not nimble, so I type considerably slower. We have people who can type fast and are able to write 10 to 20 thousand words per day, and their remuneration is at least 50 thousand and above per month. There are even people earning 100 thousand!"
"So much?!"
"Yes, Feng Yun website's perks are very good."
…
In Tianjing City, the tallest television tower, in the top floor revolving restaurant.
"Young Master, Chief, the latest totaled reports of Feng Yun website are out!" The bodyguard was shivering with fear as he looked at Shiroishi Kazuma whose back was facing him and was standing in front of the window with his hands placed at his back. This time, he really saluted him. "According to the latest reports, currently, the site traffic of the website has already increased to 2.4 million and above for daily independent IPs. These two days, large batches of newcomers have started writing new books, and the number of updated books in three days have already reached 3,600 books!" 
"So fast!" Ko Gohon exclaimed, "Uncle Kazuma, your idea is really useful!"
"So-so." Shiroishi Kazuma's voice was very calm. "How many daily updated books does Zhong Dian website have now?"
"Chief," The bodyguard's expression and voice were filled with respect. "At the moment, there are approximately 4,500 newly updated books daily."
"Mm, we still lack 900 books." Shiroishi Kazuma said with satisfaction, "It's still within our control. If things continue progressing this way, probably in no time, we will be able to overtake Zhong Dian website. After all, the authors are after all the benefits and perks. As long as there is enough advertising, and the money is sufficient, it's not difficult to attract authors over."
Ko Gohon fully looked up to Shiroishi Kazuma now, as he anxiously asked, "Uncle Kazuma, then, do we continue like this? Why don't I get more ghostwriters to write more books? It's fine as long as it can surpass Hong Dali. I don't plan to earn much money from it."
Upon hearing Ko Gohon's words, Shiroishi Kazuma shook his head and slowly said, "No, if Hong Dali can earn money, why can't we?"
"Ah?" Ko Gohon said in surprise, "Uncle Kazuma, you're planning to… seriously run this Feng Yun website?"
"Yes." Shiroishi Kazuma nodded, yet he didn't continue talking about the novel website but instead looked out of the window, saying, "Young Master Gohon, look at the night view of Tianjing City. How beautiful is it? It's not lacking compared to Tokyo in our Jaban Empire, isn't it?" 
It was night right now. The night view of Tianjing City was extremely beautiful. Neon lights were flashing, and it was especially comfortable to stand from high up and look down, coupled with the gentle night breeze.
"It's very pretty." Ko Gohon agreed. "I haven't really noticed it previously."
"Yes, we haven't noticed it previously." Shiroishi Kazuma's voice was very calm, as he slowly stated, "It's the same for our Toyoda Conglomerate. As the top 16 in the world, the funds of our Toyoda Conglomerate are ample. You normally don't care about this, so you won't care about how much money you spend. You just feel that all the money is there for you to take it."
"I understand, Uncle Kazuma." Upon hearing this, Ko Gohon instantly understood what Shiroishi Kazuma meant.
Actually, he wasn't a stupid person. It was just that in the midst of fighting with Hong Dali, he had always been at the losing end, thus his conflicted mind.
Toyoda Conglomerate was indeed very rich. Just like the night view of Tianjing City, though it was pretty, one wouldn't notice it after looking at it for many times. But no matter how rich it was, after all, it had been built up bit by bit, and it didn't just drop down from the sky.
In that case, as long as they properly operated this Feng Yun website, then they could earn money. So why don't they do it properly and well?
"Uncle Kazuma, what should we do next?" Ko Gohon asked.
"Now since the popularity has already been increased, then next, we'll take in all the good ones and eliminate the bad ones." Shiroishi Kazuma slowly said, "Eliminate all those poor-quality books and get them to finish writing them as soon as possible. Secure those good-quality books and do your best in nurturing their authors. At the same time, slightly change the welfare benefits policy and slowly convert the severance method to giving out dividends. After the novel website has entered a stable phase of operation, it would then be a virtuous cycle." 
"Uncle Kazuma, you are brilliant!" Ko Gohon was elated. "Then, after the website has entered a virtuous cycle, we can earn quite a lot of money, right?"
"Yes." Shiroishi Kazuma smiled. "Don't belittle online novel websites. All the profits from the adaptations of films, online games, merchandises and so on are actually huge. I truly admire Hong Dali. The things started up by this lad truly have very big prospects!" 
"After hearing what Uncle Kazuma just said, I realized that this Hong Dali is very brilliant!" Now, Ko Gohon finally had to admit that Hong Dali was indeed brilliant. "I haven't thought about all this!"
Speaking up to this point, Ko Gohon recalled his bet with Hong Dali. "But Uncle Kazuma, my bet with Hong Dali…"
"Hehe, there's no hurry on that." Shiroishi Kazuma wasn't worried at all about the bet and insipidly said, "Since I've come, of course I have a way to help you win. Wait for a few more days, let's see first whether Hong Dali's side makes any moves."
Shiroishi Kazuma assured Ko Gohon, then instructed him, "Remember, leave your trump card for the last. Don't take them all out at once. Or else, what will you have left to fight him by then?"
"I understand!" This time, Ko Gohon was really convinced. "Thank you for your advice, Uncle Kazuma."


"I have to squander; otherwise, won't it be a waste of my parent's talent at earning money?" Hong Dali answers a reporter's question matter-of-factly. 

Just after the interview ends, Hong Dali opens the Great Prodigal System's interface and looks at the various good stuff displayed in it. Stroking his chin, he mumbles to himself, "I just need to squander 200 billion yuan more to exchange for the blueprint of the core technology, Engine Destruction, found in the strongest humanoid mecha weapon, Neo Granzon. Looks like I'll have to work harder!"

"I want to splurge! I want to squander!"


On Saturday, April 19th, at Feng Bujue's home, Xiao Tan, Master Bao, and Brother Jue were seated on the sofa in the living room, staring at the television. The table before them was filled with take-out, bought with the fee that Brother Jue had earned from his writing and TV appearance. Feng Bujue had already connected a video file on his laptop onto the television, so he could watch it directly from the TV. The content of this video was the episode for 'I Am a Writer' that he had recorded one week earlier.
"The episode will be aired next Friday, and this is… an hour long precut version. During the actual showing, it will be cut down to forty-five minutes." Feng Bujue raised the remote and said before pressing the button, "Are you sure you want to watch this?"
"Stop wasting time," Master Bao urged. "Hurry up. My wife is waiting for me at home for dinner."
Xiao Tan was also excited. "Quick, this is the first time someone I know has been on TV."
"Alright… fine." Feng Bujue pressed the button. Strange images from horror movies appeared on the screen, but this only continued for one or two seconds. This was probably a file problem. After all, this was not the final version, so it was normal for there to be problems. The video started for real. The camera panned from above, pulling closer to the center of the stage. Over the years, the lighting managers for variety shows appeared to have lost their mind. They did not seem satisfied until they blinded the eyes of all the viewers, and that was also the case with this show. The spotlights on the stage flickered, and the camera moved with them.
The contestants' corner was dim. Seven contestants sat next to each other with one meter between them, and each of them had a panel before them. The light hit them from a strange angle so that the audience could see their outline clearly but not their faces. As the music began, a host walked onto the stage. Compared to a certain fatty from the Death Quiz, this host was more believable. He was dressed in a casual tux and had an earpiece in. He walked steadily to the middle of the stage. After he stood still, he raised his arms. The spotlights stopped and gathered on him. The host bowed lightly and said, "Welcome to I Am a Writer. I am your host, Oscar."
Two seconds later, the lights lit up the whole stage and the audience, but the contestants' corner was still dim, like they were shooting a horror movie. Oscar was obviously just a stage name. Nowadays, people could accept any stage name as long as it was not Jin Fugui.
"Alright, audience members, I bet everyone has been waiting a long time for this…" Oscar turned to raise his arm at the contestants. "We have seven contestants with us today, and we have met six of them already. I believe the audience will be able to tell who they are from their shadows…"
"How come the second thing out of the host's lips is 'everyone has been waiting a long time for this'?" Xiao Tan asked.
"Because in the official version, before Oscar said that, he had to go through a long list of sponsors," Feng Bujue explained. "In today's variety shows, most of the segments are recorded separately. Due to intonation and time-handling, there have to be multiple takes.
"After each break for advertisement, the host has to slip in certain advertisement slogans from the sponsors. Some of them can be quite long. These won't be recorded live but added later."
"Is that so?" Xiao Tan sighed. "It's not easy to be a host."
"Shush, it's time to introduce the contestants," Master Bai reminded him.
In the image, the lights near the first contestant lit up. It was male youth with spectacles. He was around thirty, slightly rotund, and dressed casually. Oscar took out the question cards from his pocket and started to make the introduction. Of course, he was introducing everyone by their penname. "Contestant Number 1, Xuan Tianzong, a famous online author. Even though he is only thirty-two, he has about ten books with more than two million words. His works are very popular and have been adapted into games, movies, dramas, and so on… It's one of the few authors whose income can go above ten million RMB. Here's the comment from our main editor—smooth writing style, great characterization, fulfilling plot, the best Xuanhuan[1] writer we have today."
The host paused, and without the order from the set director, the audience gave a thunderous applause. Then the second contestant's area was lit up. It was also a male youth, with medium frame, who looked several years older than Xuan Tianzong. His spectacle design and fashion choice appeared more mature.
"Our second contestant is Ba Shan Pin, a well-known online author. He's thirty-three and has five long historical novels under his belt. Our main editor's comment—knowledgeable in his craft, his works have a deep foundation. It shows that he is very constant reader."
The applause received by Ba Shan Pin was equally thunderous.
"Our third contestant is Vegetable Fruit. A known author and the holder of many records. He started his career when he was eighteen, and most of his works are themed in the city lifestyle and magic. In the past ten years, he has published about 27,000,000 words and has the record of uploading every single day. He is a familiar name on the best seller ranking. Main editor's comment—the writing style is even and honest. The author is good at managing the plot's pacing. The king of plot! A hardworking genius."
Vegetable Fruit was twenty-eight and was quite handsome. He had the largest number of fans. Since he appeared, the applause and yelling had not stopped.
"The fourth contestant and our only female contestant, Mo Buxiang. Her age, like all women… is unknown." Oscar turned to the camera and laughed. Laughter came from the audience as well. Mo Buxiang's hair was in a ponytail, and she looked quiet and reserved. Even though she was not a great beauty, she looked photogenic with some make-up. "She started writing five years ago and has six known works under her name. They include supernatural, modern, game, historical, romance, and Xianxia[2], six genres. They have all been published physically, and she was last year's highest grossing female author. Main editor's comment—graceful style, and her genre is forever changing. It is little wonder that she is known as a literary genius."
Thunderous applause came from the audience. Even though Mo Buxiang did not have as many diehard fans as the previous contestants, many male audience members chose to support her as their second choice.
The fifth contestant was shown, also a male. He was about thirty and had classic African American curls. He wore sunglasses indoor and looked quite muscular.
"Fifth contestant, Onto the Field. An online author and editor for a famous sports magazine. He has thirteen short novellas in the sports genre. His style is more realistic in setting. With his professional knowledge, he is well loved by sports fans," Oscar said. "Main editor's comment—an author who knows what he's writing about. The best of the best in his genre, that is undeniable."
After the applause ended, the sixth contestant showed himself. He looked quite similar to Xuan Tianzong, but in terms of presence and fashion sense, he looked older.
"Sixth contestant, Soda. A known online writer, famous for his supernatural and ghost stories. He has seven long novels, and they have all been claimed as classics. He is well known in and out of the industry and is called our generation's master of horror," Oscar said. "Main editor's comment—Soda's every story will be able to evoke the deepest fear in the readers' heart. The details are specific and ghastly. The title 'Master of Horror' is not without its reason."
"Oh, it's coming!" Xiao Tan got excited because he felt like it was about to be Brother Jue's turn.
Suddenly, the camera zoomed in to give Oscar a closeup. "Audience members, our seventh contestant is a newcomer. This stage is cruel, and someone will be eliminated every episode. The elimination rate of newcomers is as high as fifty percent this season…"
He created a nervous atmosphere so that people would anticipate this newcomer. "Will he successfully stay for another day, or will he disappear like a comet crossing the sky? Let's find out…"
Applause boomed through the crowd, and the spotlights hit everywhere. Finally, the stage plunged into darkness, and the applause stopped. The spotlights suddenly all gathered on Feng Bujue. Even though Feng Bujue only glanced at the camera with a bored expression, the audience still gifted him with great applause and cheer.
"Actually, when the show started recording, the audience entered the hall at the same time as the contestants, so they knew who I was early on," Feng Bujue explained while destroying the mood. "This kind of reaction that you see is purposely arranged by the set director. Even if no one knew me, the reaction would be the same."
In the camera, Oscar waited for the audience to finish before speaking again. "Oh, our seventh contestant looks very young."
Even though he had chatted with Feng Bujue before the recording, he still acted like this was the first time that they had met. "I believe some people in our audience have recognized him already. Some might have read his books but have not seen him in person. Well, who is it?"
This had dragged out long enough. It was time to give the answer. Oscar pulled out the cue card to read. "Seventh contestant, Bujue, known detective novel writer. He has published twelve detective novels and has serials on the internet, in newspapers, and in magazines. His style is often humorous and unique. Be it long or short novels, the plot will always surprise the readers."
Oscar put down the card to say, "Contestant Bujue, you are recommended by all three of our main editors. They are all your fans."
"Is that so?" Feng Bujue answered casually.
"Main editor's comment," Oscar continued, "if you're good enough but you can't shine, make sure you are irreplaceable."
"Ha ha…" Feng Bujue's lips twitched.
"Based on our show's habit, every episode we will allow the newcomer to set the episode's theme." He walked to Feng Bujue's podium. "Contestant Bujue, you have three minutes to consider. In the meantime, we will enter the commercials."
"What did you set?" Xiao Tan asked.
Feng Bujue did not answer and pointed at the screen. This version did not have commercials, so after a quick change of scene, it was time to reveal the answer. Oscar moved to stand beside Feng Bujue and saw the words that he had written on the panel. Then, his expression shifted slightly as he sneaked a look at Feng Bujue with a strange color in his eyes.
"Alright, let's take a look. The theme that Bujue has given us this week on I Am a Writer is…"
Oscar was a professional host. As ridiculous as what Feng Bujue had written was, Oscar appeared calm on the surface.
As the host raised his hand, what Feng Bujue had written down appeared on the large screen.
"Feel free to roast."

Romance is a very popular genre in Webnovels. The first thing that come to mind when we talk about romance are the CEO novels. Even though we don't want to admit it, they are the mainstream romance stories in the Webnovel website. 

So why do people love romance stories? I hope you find the answer while reading this chapter.

----------------------------------

FattyBai: No worries, was just a bit curious. It's always amazing seeing how the Romance genre basically dominates the site.

Parasection: and CEO stories.

FattyBai: So I was sort of curious what the demographics on the reader's sex were. But yeah, it's a fair assumption to say that the ladies rule the site, lol

WWFire: Readers gender stats r ambiguous, it is manipulatable after all.

FattyBai: Unless there's this hidden group of guys who have been starving for CEO romance novels (which would actually be funny).

Parasection: But the sacred texts.

WWFire: All I see are genderless alien. *derp emoticon*

reinesse ♥: kek.

FattyBai: How do we pull in the female readers in if we can't write a romance story? *cry emoticon*

Parasection: No choice but to write yaoi then.

WWFire: We who read these kind of fantasy novels don't live our lives correctly pal.

CailinMatthews: *ghost hug emoticon*

Parasection: Give in to the demons.

WWFire: That's why we escape reality sometimes. 

FattyBai: It's like being offered a big cake and unable to take a slice.

Zehell2218: I think male reader have their own chance and market.

FattyBai: For sure, but it'd be nice to tap into both sides.

Zehell2218: @FattyBai I think I'll make fantasy romance so I can attract both.

FattyBai: I mean, it's not a bad idea, but how do you split it up? 50% romance/50% dragon ball z?


Parasection: The fuq that sounds like an abomination.

FattyBai: It does.

Zehell2218: @FattyBai No it's 80% romance 20% action. *joy emoticon*

Noveljunky: Besides Romance, what else do females like to read?

FattyBai: We like blowing stuff up and fighting baddies.

Zehell2218: cmon it will be comedy. *laugh emoticon*

Parasection: The best thing in a novel is character development humor and action romance can be on the side.

Anjeeriku: Romance can be a great sub genre.

Parasection: how does one even write romance? I don't know where to begin with that genre.

FattyBai: I'm a simple guy, I see plot and I drown it in martial arts and manly stuff. Of course, I don't know what feelings are. Can you eat them to increase your cultivation base? *think smart emoticon*

Parasection: I've never experienced romance so i'd fail the moment i'd attempt a story like that.

Zehell2218: Actually, I like to write fighting scene but without romance my reader will kill me. So...yeah I tag it as romance! *joy emoticon*

Parasection: Fight scenes are fun to write.

FattyBai: I'm trying to break through into the "Immortal lonely sperg" phase~

Zehell2218: Very sloooooowww romance.

Anjeeriku: Please no abusive ML @Zehell2218 They're disgusting. idk why women like to read them.

FattyBai: @Zehell2218 Baby Dragon Truer words have not been spoken, and that scares me.

reinesse ♥: Some villains are really brainless. they can scheme, but they don't have a reasonable reason to do so

Zenith: Kek.

Zenith: Get the MC u desire! Yeah @Zehell2218 

FattyBai: I fear becoming a more wholesome and fleshed out human being. Please no development.

Zehell2218: @Zenith It's ok. Just want to see if people will find this good or not. *joy emoticon*

Totally Not Nano: I think there's a formula in getting famous as a writer.

[A/N: Oh? Such formula exist? Teach me Senpai!]

Totally Not Nano: Let's debate about it. *thinking emoticon*

Parasection: The formula is write romance and you're set.

Anjeeriku: Write a lot. be a slave. Lol


----------------------------------

Elyon knew that "Romance" is not his strong point. He writes a fantasy story with romance, but he can't tell if the romance will be able to attract female readers. Out of curiosity, he asked some of his fellow authors the question "Why do you read romance stories?"

Here are their answers…

Kyosei: Because I am single. 

Reili: To fill my empty void of a love life.

Minrei: Because romance let you feel what is to be loved, plus it is universal you dont need to learn magic or cultivation in order to read.

Bajj: Due to lack of romance irl.

Murakami: I read because I enjoy the friction and conflict between the FL and ML. The insistence vs resistance is naisu.

Qin: I reads romance only for ideas and info.

VlassisBehrakis: I don't read romance novels.

[A/N: Oof I asked the wrong person.]

Elyon then  ̶a̶m̶b̶u̶s̶h̶e̶d̶ asked some readers about their opinion about romance novels.

Yin: I read romance novels because I want that kind of drama to happen to me in real life. But I know it will never happen haha.

A Certain Irresistible Meowlin: I wonder why? And I do read romance novels. Though the chance of me dropping them is also the highest out of all the genres. Every so often I come across a scene that makes me just want to squeal and fangirl. 

----------------------------------

Elyon decided to dig deeper and asked a few of his senior "romance authors" some questions about their reason for writing romance stories.

The first question is… Why did you choose to write Romance Stories?

Anjeeriku: I'm comfortable writing romance stories compared to other genres. I'm a helpless romantic person and I like novels that can invoke other people's feelings.

Bajj: First of all, I like reading romance story. It was the reason why I read books before and reading other genres comes after. All in all, due to these romance fiction books, I got the opportunity to read more great books with different genre.

MishaK: That's what I read, so write that too.

Zehell2218: Because as reader, I want to read romance novel so when I write, I write romance since my motto is I write what I want to read.

Ikazainudin: The easiest genre. Everyone can relate.

End_of_Era: It wasn't a full on Romance, it was slice of life with romance which I feel was necessary with progression of the characters.

----------------------------------


The second question… When you were making your ML and FL, did you imagine yourself as the lead of your story at any given point in time?

Anjeeriku: I would be a liar if I said no. There were instances that I'd put myself in my FL's shoes. Whenever that happens, my writing feels more passionate and truthful that sometimes it was hard to know where my fl starts and where I end. 

Shen Yi, LMD's ML was based on a person I've lost, The One That Got Away so it was sometimes hard not to self-insert whenever there were scenes that need to invoke feelings from readers. 

Bajj: I believe that every character the author was making and breathing life into it, a part of him/her is added to its character. But me imagining of being the ML/FL, never. I'm too pure for that. Kek

MishaK: Yes I did but sometimes. Otherwise you can't infuse emotions in your characters. It is important to understand your characters.

Zehell2218: Yes, I imagine myself as the lead. Of course, I tweak it a bit, such as in age and appearance. But mostly, the characteristics is similar to me.

Ikazainudin: FL and ML character based on what I want to be irl. Yup. I imagine that will be my love story.

End_of_Era: Yes, my leads had some ocassional self insertion.

----------------------------------

The third question… If you were to choose some other genre aside from romance, what would you pick?

Anjeeriku: Fantasy. I always look up to those authors who can write fantasy stories/novels well. I believe writing a fantasy novel is harder than writing romance. 

[A/N: Ahem! 10 points to Griffindor!]

Bajj: Horror/thriller/Action. Read GGGB godamnit! [Good Girl Gone Bad]

MishaK: I am writing a Fantasy romance aside from regular vanilla romance *smile emoticon*

Zehell2218: Fantasy, magical realism, fan fiction.

Ikazainudin: Psychological/horror and maybe children story.

End_of_Era: The new genre I'm writing is fantasy/violent .

----------------------------------


The fourth and final question… If you were to give a message to your beloved readers, what would it be?

Anjeeriku: I'm sorry for not being inconsistent with updates. Y'all know I love you, but a little consideration and patience as I face this rough patch in my life would be very much appreciated.

Bajj: Vote me please :* mass release comes after, deal?

[A/N: Oof!]

MishaK: Be responsible in reviewing the book you are reading. Authors love to listen from their readers. So talk to them.

Zehell2218: Beloved reader, your author here is working hard to provide your daily dose so pliz pretty pliz, read my chapter using paid SS since I don't get even a penny for free SS. 

Tips: use free SS on translation novel. The translator still get money and use paid SS on original novel so we can get a bit money to continue living *wink*

Ikazainudin: I want readers to know, that love, hope and miracles exist. Be open and value each moment of your life like the MC's did.


----------------------------------

Author's Thoughts

Hello Guys! I hope you enjoyed this chapter of WWCG. Personally, I've read a few CEO novels myself. I also read some FL stories like A Slight Smile Is Devastating (Love O2O), Hidden Marriage, Doomed to be Cannon Fodder, Transmigrator meets Reincarnator, A Mistaken Marriage Match: A Generation of Military Counselor, There Is an Angel in That Church (short story), Eight Treasures Trousseau, Grabbing Your Hand, Dragging you Away, A Mistaken Marriage Match: Record of Washed Grievances…

Ai~ there's a few more that I won't add to the list because it will create a wall of text. Well anyways, the reason why I read these stories is to get an idea on "WHY" the ladies love to read them.

Let's just say that it's a unique way to see a world in the eye of a lady (if you are a man of course). When done properly, the execution of the story can capture the hearts of anyone, even male readers. I believe that no matter what gender you are, as long as you find the story interesting then it doesn't matter whether you are a guy or a gal no?

Perhaps, when I'm not too busy to write my stories, I'll once again pick a romance novel to read. Hopefully, I will find another hidden gem that will bring unexpected surprises to anyone who are lucky enough to find them.

P.S I would like to thank my fellow authors, especially my senior romance authors who answered some of my questions regarding romance novels. 

To my senior authors, May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind always be at your back. May the Power Stones shine warm upon your face, and Spirit Stones fall soft upon your fields. (￣▽￣)ノ

FORD'S POV
Sabi nila "Love can change a person." It's either maganda ang dulot nito or kaya naman ay opposite. In my case, love turned me into a monster. I was an aspiring writer back then and you know what, romance ang favorite kong genre. Mas marami pa nga yata ang pocket book ko na dala kesa sa mga kailangan ko talaga sa school. Nagtitiis din ako ng gutom to buy those limited edition books.
Pero everything changed nang dumating si Jamie sa buhay ko, an average girl na bilang sa daliri ang manliligaw. She was my college crush noong freshmen pa lang kami. With the help of my classmate ay naging best friend ko si Jamie. Naging inspiration ko si Jamie para magsulat ng napakaraming novels na sa kasamaang-palad ay hindi nabigyan ng recognition dahil sa sobrang daming magaling na writers out there.
Lumipas ang mga taon, graduation day namin ngayon and this was the day na ginawa ko ang pinaka-mahirap na bagay na gawin ng isang lalaki- ang umamin sa taong gusto nila. Ewan ko na lang kung hindi maghalo ang pawis at luha ko sa gagawin ko.
Saksi ang langit at lupa kasama na ang ilang libong mag-aaral ng unibersidad. Lumuhod ako sa harapan ni Jamie with flowers medyo nadapa pa nga ng kaunti dahil tinutulak ako ng mga classmate ko.
Hinintay ko talaga ang best moment na magkakatinginan kaming dalawa sa mata. "I like you, Jamie." She moved forward and hugged me na parang bata at bumulong, napaka-sweet medyo nakikiliti pa ako sa lamig ng labi niya. Kung napanood mo na ang mga romance movie ng pinoy eto na yung scene na yon.
"Ford, friend lang ang tingin ko sayo. Sorry kung hindi ko kayang i-level up ang relationship natin. Friends Ford, FRIENDS..."
Kung hindi ba naman gago tong isip ko, kusang nag-play ng background music sa utak. Tumutugtog ngayon sa ulo kong walang laman kung hindi siya lang ang kanta ng Ben & Ben na Kathang-Isip. Tama nga sila pareng Bam Aquino.
Diba nga ito ang iyong gusto
Oh ayan wala rin siyang gusto
Sandali nga, this is not  the right lyrics ah.
Bawat kilig na nadarama
Sa tuwing hawak ang iyong kamay
Ito'y maling akala,
Isang malaking sablay.
Ganon pala yon. Don't assume na may gusto rin siya sayo dahil sa pinapakita niya. Sa sobrang friendly, nawawalang cast yata ito ng American series na Friends.
Nagsimulang pumatak ang mga luha sa mata ko. Wala na akong nakikita kung hindi luha ko na sinubukan kong tikman, oo na alam kong maalat, sayang din.
Mas lalo pang pumunit ng puso ko nang makita ko siyang tumatakbo sa direction ni Oliver, ang poging mayaman na basketball player. Masyado bang cliche kung sasabihin ko na chic boy yon? Na mas pinipili ng mga babae ngayon ang mga lalaking bad boy compare sa mga katulad namin na seryoso.
Hindi pa nagpa-awat sila Jamie kasama si varsity boy dahil biglang naglapat ang kanilang mga labi. Kung gaano katamis ngayon ang natitikman ni varsity boy ay kabaligtaran sa natitikman kong luha na maalat.
After the graduation ay nagpaalam ako kay Jamie, na hindi ko kayang tanggapin ang offer niya na mag-stay kami as a friend. Torture yon kung araw-araw kami magkikita.
Pag-uwi ko ng bahay ay tiningnan ko ang mga libro ko. Punong-puno ito ng mga librong puro pag-ibig. Mga tips, do's and dont's sa dating, how to papansin kay crush etc. Ngayon ko napagtanto na isa itong malaking kalokohan. Sa larangan ng pag-ibig, talo ka kapag seryoso ka.
Gamit ang bayong ng nanay ko ay araw-araw kong nilalako ang mga libro para ibenta ang iba naman ay sa online, mahirap lang naman kami at isa pa may bibilhin akong importanteng gamit sa mapagbebentahan. Dumating ang time na hindi na mabili ang ilang libro dahil underrated kaya naman pinakilo ko na lang sa junk shop. Isa lang ang gusto kong mangyari, ang kalimutan ang pag-ibig kasabay nito ay ang paghinto ko sa pagsusulat sa genre na romance.
MT Publishing Co., 5th floor
Malaki na naman ang kinita ng MT Publishing nang dahil sa akin. Halos ilang libro na rin ang naproduce namin na naging best selling at sold out. MT Pub was known as the best publishing company in terms of romance genre. I was the first author na pinublish nila out of their comfort zone.
I remember noong time na yon, our CEO Johan came to our house para mag-offer ng contract. Nanalo raw ang entry ko. I told him that time na I'm going to decline their offer dahil hindi na nga ako magsusulat pa. Pinilit niya ako pero ayoko talaga. The other day ay pumunta ulit si Johan to convince me, this time ay may bago siyang offer.
He wants me to write in his company. Pumayag siya na magsulat ako ng gusto kong genre except sa romance. Then nagsimulang sumikat ang company sa pagdating ko.
7:00 AM
I have my own room sa may building namin. Dito na ako nag-stay dahil tahimik dito.
Knock! Knock! Nabulabog ako sa pagkakatulog nang marinig ko ang malakas na katok na iyon. Malamang ay kay Ms. Hannah yon, ang aming secretary.
"Gigising  ka ba o wawasakin ko tong pintuan mo?" matapang si Ms. Hannah, parang tigre, anytime ready mangagat.
Lumabas ako ng walang saplot sa itaas, sanay naman na siya sa ganitong senaryo.
"Hi beautiful!" pang-aasar ko sakanya kahit na alam kong may something sa kanila ni Johan.
"I know right. 2nd floor at magdamit ka nga." at tuluyan na siyang umalis.
Sa 2nd floor ay naghihintay si Johan sa kanyang desk, busy na naman mangolekta ng pera si boss.
"You're here..."
"Oo naman. I've something to tell you."
"Alam ko na yang sasabihin mo. Hannah told me na you want a break. What do you think? Makakatanggi ba ko sayo?"
"Kailangan ko lang ng ilang araw para makapag-isip-isip sa next step ko."
"Okay it's up to you. Pero may request lang ako sayo. Kahit isang beses lang. I think eto ang inaabangan ng lahat."
"Johan wag mong sabihin na-"
"Magsulat ka ng romance, Ford"
"Johan-"
"Natransfer ko na yung money mo sa nanay mo, gaya ng sabi mo nagtira akong kaunti pang-gimik mo."
Just like that ay hindi na ulit nagsalita pa ang CEO kaya naman umakyat ulit ako sa taas para mag-empake ng mga gamit ko. Ako lang ang may access ng 5th floor ng building maliban kay Johan at Hannah.
Yung ibang writers at employees ay never pa rin ako nakita. Alam lang nila na forbidden ang 5th floor dahil kay Johan ito, ang paliwanag ng CEO namin.
Ready na ang mga gamit ko. Gamit ang kotse ko na BMW ay tinahak ko ang daan papuntang Tagaytay. I bought a mansion here. Habang na sa daan ay napansin ko ang isang book cafe. I don't know kung magic o anong meron sa cafe na ito pero ngayon ko lang to nakita. Siguro dahil hindi ako nagpapay ng attention dati.
Sa labas pa lang ng shop ay amoy mo na ang matapang na aroma ng kape.
"Welcome to Lola Igna's Book Cafe!" bati ng lalaking nasa harapan ng pintuan. Hindi ko siya pinansin dahil snobber ako. To my surprise, bumulaga sakin ang ilang cabinet na naglalaman ng mga romance book. Sa may counter naman ng cafe ay puro mga libro ko ang nakalagay roon.
I also noticed na karamihan din sa mga nagbabasa ng libro ngayon dito ay binabasa ang latest work ko na The Night Stalker. Kumuha rin ako ng copy ng book ko para kunwari may binabasa ako, natural nabasa ko na to dahil ako mismo ang nagsulat.
"Can I take your order please?" bati ng cashier.
"Anong best seller niyo bukod sa libro ko, I mean sa libro na to." turo ko sa libro ko, tsaka laging iced americano lang naman ang inoorder ko.
"Iced Americano sir!" huh for real?
"Sige. Give me one tsaka." umikot ako sa bread and pastry nila at natagpuan ko ang suman.
"Eto isa rin."
"Anything else po?"
"Wala na."
"Ako sir baka gusto niyo akong orderin. Kahit take out pa." pabulong na sabi ng cashier.
"Huh?"
"Have a seat po muna."
Habang nakaupo ako ay pumasok ang isang babae. Infairness maganda ito. Dumiretso siya sa loob ng bar, siguro manager o kaya naman boss nila.
Ilang sandali pa ay dumating na ang order ko. Grabe! Sobrang solid nga pala ng coffee nila rito. Hindi siya matapang at hindi rin siya matabang, saktuhan lang. Yung suman din nila ibang-iba sa mga nakakain sa Manila.
Sa may ibaba ng table ko ay nakakita ako ng langgam. Dahil nga isa akong gago, nilagay ko iyon sa may suman ko. Gagawa lang ako ng eksena para pagtripan ang babaeng kapapasok lang kanina.
"Excuse me!" tawag ko sa barista. "May concern lang ako dahil yung suman ko kasi may langgam. Pwede ko bang makausap yung manager niyo?"
"Sorry po sir, tawagin ko lang po si Ms. Shaine."
"Pakibilisan." sambit ko, hindi ko dapat ginagawa ito sa mga staff dahil I know their hardships kung hindi lang dahil sa babae kanina hindi ko sila pagtitripan.
"Yes sir, do you want me to replace na lang yung order and refund na lang namin yung binayad niyo. We're sorry for the inconvenience po." sambit niya sa kalmadong tono.
"Kaya niyo bang sagutin ang medical expenses ko sa oras na may mangyari sa akin ng masama?"
"Hindi po sir, we don't have that much money para icompensate kayo. Kaya nga po kung maaari daanin na lang natin sa maayos na usapan. Kung gusto niyo po we will give you free coffee everyday!"
"I understand. Sa susunod ah, check niyo muna mga nilalabas niyong orders."
"Thank you very much po!" sobrang kakaiba ang smile ng babaeng ito, magkano lang naman ang medical expenses, siguro kailangan nila ng money ? I don't know pero mukhang happy siya."

Ford, also known as “Write Her” is a famous writer in his mid-20’s. He was once a romance novelist, but because of what happened in the past, he decided to create different genres of novels – horror, sci-fi, fiction – anything which made him famous. His past was being rejected by his best friend; Jamie who made him stop creating romance novels. He went to Tagaytay and met Shaine who is his fan and a book café owner. To create a romance novel once again, he must experience falling in love and Shaine is the perfect girl for his plan. For that to happen, he must make the girl fall in love with him. What will Ford do when his feelings for Shaine come true instead?

Keeley ended up splashing around in the water and tried boogeyboarding with her sons. Violet did it exactly once before giving up because she biffed it and got water up her nose. Aaron, surprisingly, was the best out of everyone at it.
"Wow, Dad! Show me how you did that!" Oliver said excitedly after Aaron managed to ride a wave all the way to shore.
"Honestly, I'm not sure how I did it but I can give it another shot," he replied with a shrug. 
It definitely wasn't a fluke because he managed to do it four more times in a row. After that all three of the boys looked at him with something akin to awe. They begged him to help them go all the way too.
At that point Keeley rejoined her daughter on the sand. She was sipping an alcohol-free pina colada and was back to her book.
"I've only ever seen you read mystery novels," Violet said after a while. "Do you not like romance?"
She nearly snorted. She hadn't touched a romance novel since was she originally eighteen years old. First it was because she didn't have time and then because she was too disappointed in how her own love had turned out.
Even after her love life was flowing smoothly following her remarriage and re-falling in love with Aaron she still couldn't stomach them. They were so unrealistic and gave people unfair hopes. Real love didn't work like it did in novels.
A wry half-smile appeared on her face. "I had my heart broken a long time ago. That kind of turned me off from romance novels and chick flicks forever."
Violet appeared intrigued. Her mother had never talked about any previous boyfriends before. "Who was it?"
Well that was one question she couldn't answer honestly. She wasn't about to ruin her daughter's opinion of her father.
"A boy I met in high school. He had a rough home life and didn't know how to be in a relationship so in the end it didn't work out. I was bitter about it for a long time. That was probably way it took your dad a while to win me over," Keeley said with a touch of irony.
It took him so long to win her over because she wasn't sure she could trust him again. After that it was fear about Lacy Knighton and Alistair Hale that kept her heart closed off even once he was her best friend again. It took the woman getting murdered for Keeley to realize what she should have months before: that she was still hopelessly in love with her husband.
"I had no idea it took Dad time to win your heart. You guys are so perfect together I figured it must  have always been that way," Violet said before taking another slurp from her straw.
Keeley shook her head, feeling a bit sheepish.
"No, it took us a while. I met him during the last half of my senior year of high school and wasn't open to love at all because of what happened before. We were apart for five and a half years before meeting up again. Even then he still had to work pretty hard to convince me to give him a chance."
Violet laughed. "Someone should make a romance novel out of your love story. I bet people would eat it up."
Ah, if only she knew. There was already a telenovela about it. But nobody knew that except for her. It was a secret she managed to keep from Aaron somehow after all these years. She didn't see the point in bringing it up and hurting his feelings unnecessarily.
"People do tend to like a persistent male lead, don't they?" Keeley asked lightly. "Your father is probably the most patient person I've ever met. He wanted only me and did everything imaginable to make that happen."
"I wish someone would love me that much." Her daughter sighed dreamily before continuing. 
"The book I'm reading is kind of like that too. The characters were apart for more than ten years because she accidentally gave him the wrong phone number. It was one digit off. But he never stopped loving her and ended up finding her again as she was engaged to a jerk."
That sounded like a classic romance novel to Keeley. She didn't think Violet was sentimental enough to enjoy that sort of thing though. She was normally so studious.
When she was younger she read a lot of historical fiction and fantasy novels. This romance novel phase was definitely a more recent development. Well, she was at a very romantic age.
Keeley had to wonder though. Violet said she wanted someone to love her as much as Aaron loved Keeley. Did she not realize Noah's feelings?
It was fairly obvious to both the Hale and Singleton parents that Noah's childish obsession with Violet as a playmate had evolved into an actual crush as he got older. The type of love she was talking about what mushy, sentimental, and supportive. A best friend relationship.
Aside from the mushiness…didn't she already have that with Noah? The boy went to every recital or concert she ever had and always showed up with flowers. How had she not realized her best friend liked her?
"Vi, I don't mean to pry into your business…but do you like Noah?" Keeley asked gently. 
The shock on her daughter's face was genuine. "Are you crazy?! Liking Noah is basically the same thing as liking Kaleb!"
Ah, the poor kid. He was going to get his hopes crushed. Keeley and Jennica had talked about it before. It was completely obvious he liked Violet as more than a friend.
For his sake, she hoped it passed soon and he was able to find someone who liked him back but at the same time…what would happen to her innocent 'I only need one person' daughter when Noah eventually fell in love with someone else?
"He's my best friend," Violet continued. "You don't fall in love with your best friend."
She sounded so certain and yet…it was a large part of the reason she was alive right now. Discounting all of the reincarnation stuff that came later, Keeley never would have married Aaron the first time if they hadn't already been best friends.
She couldn't say that now though since she had already told her daughter that it took time for him to win her over. After all this time, keeping her lies straight about who knew what from which lifetime was still confusing.
The only person who know the whole truth, oddly enough, was Aiden. Aaron had told her how he figured it out on his own the day Oliver was born. That had been shocking to say the least
Although he didn't know everything Aaron did because he had been too embarrassed to share how badly he screwed up with the woman he loved. But he was the only other person alive who knew about their double reincarnation.


Keeley, a simple plain Jane, hits the jackpot.  [No, she did not win the lottery!]  At least that's what she thinks when she marries the most eligible bachelor in New York City: Aaron, a wealthy cold-hearted heartthrob and Tycoon. 

She wants to show the world that she deserves her position and bends over  backward to fit into his world.

One beautiful day, Aaron hands her a document asking her to sign.  A divorce paper...

"She's pregnant, and I need to take responsibility."

That is the last thing that keeps on playing in her mind before she takes her last breath.

Keeley dies, a 'hit and run'. [End of story.  Not!]

For some unexplainable reason, she wakes up as her younger self.  A young high school girl, around the time when she first meets her cheating husband.

Remembering her life with Aaron before she died, she makes a promise to herself that she will do everything in her power to avoid him at all costs.

Will she be able to keep her promise when Aaron has his own plans as well, specifically for her?  Or will she repeat history and fall for him once more...

Why not journey with me and find out the truth behind their story.

Pei Qian took a sip of his tea and continued, "We will only offer fixed-rate contracts for the top writers on our website."
"That's because the terms of this contract are better. It's equivalent to giving a benefit to the authors of our website. We will not provide such benefits until other authors prove their strength."
"The total word count should be between 10,000 to 500,000 words for a fixed-rate contract. They cannot exceed 500,000 words."
"The fixed-rate contract will be calculated based on triple the revenue that the author earned from his previous books. For example, the original royalty contract of the author's previous book was about 1,000 yuan per 1,000 words. Then, the royalties for this book would be 3,000 words per 1,000 words."
"There is no minimum requirement to update. They can write as much as they want. Slow work will produce fine work."
"What's more, we don't accept complete originality, we can only write custom-made novels. We provide IPs for the authors."
Pei Qian could not help but be impressed by his own intelligence after he finished speaking.
Fixed-rate Contracts and customizing. Wouldn't he be able to wipe out all the famous authors on Zhongdian Chinese Network and cripple them?
Those who read online literature often knew that fixed-rate contracts and customizing was the easiest way to produce rubbish works.
That was because the first prerequisite for creating good works was freedom.
Authors could only write outstanding works if they were free to write about topics that they were good at and had strong drive in.
If an author who was good at writing sci-fi novels had to write romance novels, the things he wrote would definitely be horrible.
On the other hand, custom-made works were often works th\at the client had a certain need for commercial publicity. At that time, the author's creative thinking would definitely be restricted by the client.
The client would definitely suggest some changes or interfere with the author's outline in order for the works to meet their requirements. On the other hand, the author would not be able to create the works according to his own ideas. His attitude would be different and would not be able to produce 120% of the works.
That was because the first target of custom-made text was the client, not the reader. Thus, there was a high chance that it would not be liked by the reader.
On top of the restrictions on custom-made novels, the fixed-rate contract would further dampen the author's creativity.
That was because fixed-rate contracts meant that there would be a steady income. The cost of the custom-made text was also very high. The author only had to use a little bit of brainpower to bring the works to about 60 points to complete the client's requirements. There was no need to work hard to write 80 or even 100 points.
He would not be able to do it because his creative freedom was not high enough and the theme was not good enough even if he wanted to write to 100 marks.
Thus, Pei Qian had released this trump card of customization and the fixed-rate contract to "bribe" all the top writers of Zhongdian Chinese Network.
It was all about earning money for these authors irregardless of whether they were on royalties or fixed-rate contracts. How they chose would depend on which one earned more money.
It would be easier to write custom-made designs. The amount of royalties calculated by word count would almost double. He could earn as much money as he used to after writing casually every day. Why not?
If the royalties previously were 1,000 yuan per 1,000 words, he could earn 300,000 yuan per month by writing 300,000 words. According to the purchase order, the royalties would be tripled. He could earn the same amount of money by writing 100,000 words each month.
However, the workload was greatly reduced!
While the fixed-rate contract system was voluntary and not mandatory, Pei Qian felt that no one would reject such a good offer, right?
Who would go against money?
That way, the authors' income would not be affected and Pei Qian's purpose would be achieved if the website incurred losses.
Ma Yiqun obviously knew this very well. That was why he looked shocked. He did not know what Boss Pei was up to.
While it was up to the authors to decide whether they wanted to sell their book or not, only a few of the head writers would reject it based on the current price.
Of course, it was a good thing for the authors, but it seemed to be very risky for the website. If they were not careful, it would cause huge losses.
Ma Yiqun pondered for a moment and asked, "Boss Pei, are there any other restrictions on this fixed-rate contract? What if no one reads the novel written by the author? Can you ask him to finish the novel in advance or force him to edit it?"
Pei Qian shook his head. "There are no other restrictions. However, there is a requirement for the word count. Each book has to be written at ten to five hundred thousand words. If it exceeds five hundred thousand words, they will not be paid. They will have to start another book."
The reason why he set the word count requirement was mainly to create difficulties for the authors who were used to writing long chapters.
At the moment, the standard word count for online novels was two to three million words. No matter how long it was, there were many people who could write five million words or more.
Therefore, when the authors first set the story outline, they were used to setting the entire text above two million words. If the great authors could write something famous, they would definitely be more familiar with it.
However, now they had to compress the story to a hundred to five hundred thousand words and write a short story. That would be using a creative way that they were not good at.
On the other hand, most readers of online novels liked to read long works and were not interested in short stories.
That way, the possibility of making money from novels would be further reduced.
Ma Yiqun asked again, "We can terminate the purchase agreement if the authors write a few rubbish novels, right?"
Pei Qian wanted to say no, but he felt that it did not make any sense. An author had been producing rubbish, but the website was still buying out his work at extremely high royalties from him. It did not make sense and was too unreasonable.
Thus, after some consideration, he decided to adopt a relatively neutral plan. "If the results of two consecutive books are very bad, let the author revert back to a royalty contract. He can continue with the fixed-rate contract when he's doing well again."
That way, authors who wanted to slack off would be able to continue writing with a fixed-rate contract and cheat money after writing a novel with royalty contracts. The rules of the website were basically 'come and cheat me of my money' and 'this fool has a lot of money' written on it.
Ma Yiqun asked again, "What type of custom-made novels should there be?"
"Can we take on some custom-made novels from other companies?"
Pei Qian immediately shook his head. "No! We can only write with the IP that Tengda has."
Ma Yiqun: "…"
He might still be able to make a profit if he could accept custom-made novels from other companies.
For example, if some popular online games needed to be promoted, Ma Yiqun could recommend his outstanding authors to the company, ask the company to fork out money, and ask the authors to write them. That way, Zhongdian Chinese Network could earn a sum of advertising fees.
However, Boss Pei rejected that possibility on the spot!
According to Boss Pei, the restrictions on custom-made novels were really strange.
It could not be purely original nor could it be custom-made by other companies. It could only be Tengda's IP.
What was Tengda's IP?
Ma Yiqun gave it some thought. This included the various games that Tengda had developed, such as Repent and be Saved, Ocean Stronghold, Struggle, and so on.
This included the short videos and films that Fei Huang Workspace had already shot, such as Tomorrow is Beautiful and the current filming of Mission and Choice;
That included the various IP images bought from GOG, as well as original hero characters like Modest and Ruan;
Including the various superhero characters in the works of Hurricane Comics;
Other than that, some of the popular novels on Zhongdian Chinese Network and other miscellaneous things were considered Tengda's IP.
It did look like a lot, but what was the point of customizing these things?
The only use was to fill up the entire "Tengda Universe" 's story storage. However, many of the IPs did not need to be filled up at all: The content of the original work had already been expressed very clearly and thoroughly. Why did it still have to continue?
Would these authors be able to write stories that were comparable to the original works if they wrote them seriously? Ma Yiqun did not think so at all. That was because many of the original works were personally written by Boss Pei. These authors would not be able to catch up even if they tried.
What's more, it was still a loss compared to the money spent on buying these works.
That was because the purchase strategy this time was not only targeted at one author, but all of Zhongdian Chinese Network's top authors. If these authors were determined to deceive and cheat money, Zhongdian Chinese Network would spend a lot of money on rubbish. It would be very difficult to guarantee the website's interests.
Ma Yiqun pondered for a long time, but he was still very confused by Boss Pei's decision.
However, Ma Yiqun did not say much seeing Boss Pei's confident expression.
Boss Pei's actions were always so unpredictable after all. No matter how ridiculous and strange Boss Pei's decisions looked at the beginning, they were proven to have deeper meaning and were extremely successful.
Thus, Ma Yiqun nodded. "Alright, Boss Pei. I'll make the arrangements soon."
Pei Qian was very satisfied with his attitude. "Yes, very good."
"On top of that, there's another matter regarding the authors' class."
"This class has been running for some time. It's time to make some improvements."
"My idea is to create another 'inspiration class' based on this study class."
"Gather all the top writers, especially those who have decided to write custom-made novels, and join this inspiration class."
"In the inspiration class, we will prepare a large number of novels, movies, and games for them. We asked them to collect materials from them every day. Then, they would exchange their writing skills and knowledge and recommend games or movies that they think are fun."
"For this inspiration class, there must be some initial investment. For example, the monitor must be big, the earphones must be good, the seats must be comfortable, and the various resources inside must be directly purchased from the original, ultra-high-definition blue-light discs to provide the best viewing experience for everyone."
"In the previous class, the authors could only write and check their information. They could not do anything else. In this inspiration class, the authors could only do things related to collecting inspiration. They could only write for two hours every day for eight hours."
Ma Yiqun was stunned again. "Huh? This…"
How was this an inspiration class? It was obviously a pleasure class and a slacker class!
One of the most important reasons why the study class had been successful before was that the "small dark room" could allow authors with poor self-control to concentrate on writing in this environment. That was how many outstanding works were born.
However, now, everyone could watch movies if they wanted to. They could play games if they wanted to. Not only were they not locked up in the dark room, but they were also restricted to writing for two hours a day.
Wasn't that encouraging them to slack?
What's more, Boss Pei had also said that this inspiration class was mainly targeted at authors who had decided to write custom-made novels. These people's requirements for updating were very low to begin with, and their creativity would probably not be high. He had also arranged a comfortable and enjoyable environment for them…
These people were probably going to be crippled!
They were the top writers and pillars of Zhongdian Chinese Network. If they were to become useless, not only would it affect the website's income, but it would also affect the number of outstanding works and readers' comments on the website…
Ma Yiqun hesitated for a moment and said, "Boss Pei, isn't this environment too relaxed?"
Pei Qian sniggered. "That's right!"
"To these top writers, they have no lack of skills or skills. If they want to improve, they need more inspiration. They need to slow down and work hard!"
"Nowadays, many novels have millions of words. Each day, they would update thousands or even ten thousand words a day. How can a good novel be written with such huge pressure?"
"Tell them to slow down and polish it!"
Ma Yiqun opened his mouth, wanting to say something more, but he could not.
Obviously, Boss Pei's thinking seemed a little unrealistic. These online novels were meant to be used for recreational purposes. So what if they slowed down and polished it well? Could they even produce a famous novel?
However, he could not say that Boss Pei's idea was wrong. He could only say that Boss Pei had a higher level of vision than him and had a greater goal.
Ma Yiqun hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded. "Alright, Boss Pei. I'll make the arrangements now!"


I really just want to lose money! T_T
Best boss ever, prodigy of the business world, genius creator, visionary of the century.
These are the descriptions used for Pei Qian, President of Tengda Corporation.
Ever since his rebirth, Pei Qian finds himself in possession of a system that rewards him if he manages to lose money.
Instantly, a brilliant idea comes to mind — making crappy games!
"If the game flops, all my investment cost will be lost!"
"How difficult can it be to lose money?"
Indeed... how difficult can it be?
