i dont think thats how it works friend at best its outsourcing but not all novel come from webnovel/qidian they are a giant in the field but not the only ones there are other companies/websites out there.

KingOfDog:webnovel owns the site/company where the novels come from

if you check the raws for this novel its only available upto 50 ch. rest is behind pay wall. most novels like that dont get translated because the author wont get paid per reader anymore, and most companies would be unwilling to spend a huge sum to purchase rights for the novel so you see.

umm ok but 1. isn't webnovel just buying the translating rights to the novels through the company that owns them? 2. Even if authors don't make much or anything from the translation, if we base it on the contract WN has for authors. Then the company that's in contract with author has the right to do whatever they want with the ip and the author has no say. 3. I don't even think these cost alot. The quality of these novels from other companies i.e foloo I think was called, is bargain bin at best.

i said this because i've notices many translators refuse to translate such paid novels so i looked into it a little.
