Review Detail of HolyDragon17 in My Wife Turns Out to Be a Vampire?

Why are they changing Chinese names to English? Is this a new way to attract westerners? It's quite worrying since "My Students are Arrogant" changed a whole lot and not just names. The greater chances of it being picked up was if it stayed true to the raws?

Not all of them. It's only when there are a bunch of characters with names that only differ by a single letter or syllable.

It disgusts and annoys me TBH. I don’t want translators who can’t even proofread to continue naming and changing novels. I STG not everyone is named ‘John’ or ‘Austin’!

This site has been going downhill fast. Scummy Chinese will continue to be complete scum. Can’t wait for the book to be thrown in their face and daddy Tencent gets held liable for all of their actions

I mean doesn’t Qidan own Webnovel? They have the rights to the novels already but they’re just doing this bulls#it to pander uselessly.

Avoid copyright? We’re you here when this website used to be called Qidan? This website is literally owned by one of the big Webnovel companies in China!

for some reason your newest comment isnt showing. anyway what you're saying is totally right. my theory was just based of the fact that there are stories with everythjng the same except for the name location and most importantly the author. the change in author for no reason to someone unheard of in both communities is what led me to my theory. anyway its just a theory. a 'insert name' theory

There is more than 1 online webnovel company in China. Most of the recent novels do not come from Qidan and property they own. They are stolen and changed from a website called Faloo.
