The release of the novel "The Island of Grey" caused a greater response than Liu Zhen expected.

Although the audience is much smaller than the previous two piano music, most readers who have read this book can't help expressing their opinions.

Men scold, women support, and some neutral attitudes.

No matter what, their enthusiasm for discussion is very high, and this kind of discussion has quickly made the novels appear and become known to a large number of ordinary people, which has led to a larger reading craze.

This is completely different from the two previous piano music when it was released.

Whether it was Nongxue or Yanyu when it was released, most people actually only read and not talk about it. Even if it was said, the focus of the discussion was on the appearance of Liu Zhen, Song Linlin and Lin Yilan.

As for the piano music itself, few people paid attention to it.

But Qingdao is different. People have a very enthusiastic discussion, and they are discussing the novel itself. People don’t even ignore the handsome guy Liu Zhen.

This also led to the fact that although the audience of the novel Qingdao was not wide at the beginning, it was connected to the hot list.

At this time, many websites of novel platforms also saw the popularity of the book, and many began to contact Liu Zhen and tried to sign the book directly.

However, Liu Zhen never planned to sign contracts with any platform website, or make exclusive releases, or the like. Even though Liu Zhen knew that the potential royalties were quite high, he still had no idea.

What he wants is not the royalties, but the time travel point.

As for money, after releasing two music and dance songs in a row, he relied on the traffic brought by the video to attract traffic. The online shopping agency business he and Song Linlin started was okay, but they couldn't make big money, but there was still some small money, at least it was enough to maintain a short period of time.

What Liu Zhen wanted was to get a trip point as soon as possible and then travel around, and he didn't plan to stay on the modern earth for too long.

Therefore, Liu Zhenquan refused to find some platforms that came to sign an exclusive contract.

It is also possible to sign a contract, it is an ordinary station authorization contract.

Most websites naturally ignore it, but some websites have seen that they are more popular now, and they want to pay for free traffic. Just wait for the station contract.

Soon, Liu Zhen also signed a contract with several platforms for authorization to publish such a station. As for the subsequent effect, we have to wait for the follow-up.

However, some publishing houses came over to ask Liu Zhen if he had any intention of publishing.

However, after contacting several publishing houses, the people from these publishing houses made a very strange request, and they all asked Liu Zhen to suspend posting subsequent content for free on the Internet.

The subsequent content will be handed over to their publishing house for publication.

As for the conditions, the publishing house with the best conditions will issue a first printing of 20,000 copies, with an eight percentage point royalty, and a 30% premium of the first printing royalty.

After hearing this, Liu Zhen was too lazy to pay attention to them.

It is impossible to publish his follow-up content exclusively. Liu Zhen also plans to gradually release the content in the future to further arouse discussion to attract more readers and thus gain more time travel points.

Limit death to physical books means that the audience of the book may directly lose more than 90% or even 99% of readers.

Besides, even if Liu Zhen wants to publish the subsequent content exclusively on a certain platform, he will never find any publishing house.

Because they gave too little money.

Twenty thousand copies, eight points of royalty, even if it is calculated based on the unit price of 30 yuan, the author can only get two or four cents for a book, and twenty thousand copies are 48,000!

A book that was released just a few days ago was able to cause a large-scale public discussion on the scarf and was able to sell for 48,000 romance novels supported by hundreds of thousands of female readers. This is not nonsense!

This little money is not as good as Liu Zhen sending a video of a piano playing to his online store to bring goods...

If you really want to earn royalties, Liu Zhen had already signed exclusive contracts with some of his novels and novel platforms that had contacted him one after another.

A medium-sized free novel platform gave him a guaranteed price of 100,000 yuan. There was only one condition, and the subsequent content could only be published on their website. The book's subsequent advertising revenue can continue to earn higher income if it exceeds this number.

There is also a large novel platform that even offered him a guaranteed price of 200,000 yuan, and the requirements are similar.

And according to their speculation, if an exclusive contract can be signed, they will immediately arrange high-quality recommendations. Not to mention a guarantee of 200,000 yuan, it is possible to directly exceed the guarantee and reach millions.

However, Liu Zhen finally rejected them.

Because they all require exclusive authorization, this does not meet Liu Zhen's needs.

What Liu Zhen wants is to let more people see it, rather than earn more royalties.

So Liu Zhen only signed an authorization and issuance agreement with some platforms, but it is not an exclusive authorization.

Even Liu Zhen continued to release it for free on some platforms that did not sign contracts, and the base camp he chose was still in the scarf.

It is updated continuously directly in the form of long pictures and texts, and content ranging from thousands or ten thousand words is uploaded every day, continuously increasing the popularity of Qingdao.

On the tenth day after the release of Qingdao novel, Liu Zhen has sent out all the previous 140,000 words, and the last 20,000 words have not been posted yet.

At this time, Qingdao's popularity had reached a height far beyond Liu Zhen's own imagination.

The most obvious thing is that the topics related to Qingdao have been ranked among the top ten of the hot search list for three consecutive days, and they have directly occupied the first and third place.

You know, Liu Zhen didn’t spend a penny, and this hot list was all piled up after spontaneous discussion among netizens.

On another important discussion website, Qingdao’s related topics are also on hot searches every day.

The top spot in the hot search list of the current Fihu is the topic of Qingdao novel: How do you view the heroine Zhao Yurou in the novel "Qingdao"?

A discussion on the issue of the heroine of a novel actually ranked first in the hot search list, and the ones below it are many social hot news and a lot of entertainment news that have been spent on money.

In the past three or four days, a group of people in the entertainment industry who want to win the rankings have been speechless.

Paralysis, this novel is so popular that it can’t even make money.

Because although many information platforms will charge money to sell the list, they will not directly suppress the glutinous island that has caused a lot of heated discussions, and then give you the first one in the hot search list.

You are giving money.

But the other person can bring more traffic to their scarves.

In the face of such explosive traffic, people would rather not have this promotion fee.

Because of such high-quality content, there is high traffic and popularity.

And traffic and popularity are the basis for their survival, and the price of selling the list can be higher.

Everyone is not stupid...
