Back to 1997, I became the originator of online literature

Chapter 266 Registered Name: Dong Tianbao

That afternoon.

Cao Sheng habitually muted his phone and started typing.

"God's Tomb" has been completed, so in the afternoon and evening, he only needs to code "The Linglong Tower of Heaven and Earth".

I suddenly have a lot more time.

Psychologically, I feel a lot more relaxed.

I wrote two chapters in the afternoon, saved the manuscript, turned off the computer, picked up my phone and prepared to go downstairs for dinner.

At this time, the sun was setting outside the window.

While eating, he checked his cell phone and found that Bao Jianfeng had called him twice and sent him two text messages that afternoon.

The content of one text message was: "Mr. Cao, I have good news for you. The beta version of our Qidian Chinese website has been released. I called you twice, but you didn't answer. I guess you were writing an article, so I didn't call you again. I'll give you the website address. Can you try it out? If you have any comments, please let me know. If you think it's okay, we will officially promote our website."

The second text message read: "By the way, all of our staff hope that you can publish one of your works on our Qidian Chinese website. Even if you publish it under another pen name, we will be very encouraged. I hope you can consider it."

At the end of the second text message, he attached the URL of Qidian Chinese Network.

The URL is easy to remember, it is the same as Cao Sheng’s starting point URL before his rebirth.

Cao Sheng was a little surprised to see these two messages.

I didn’t expect that the Qidian website would be ready so soon.

But if you calculate the time, it doesn’t seem that fast.

Looking at the familiar starting point URL in the text message, he couldn't help but smile, feeling a little complicated.

There is an illusion that one is witnessing history.

starting point……

How many online novel readers have come to this place as their spiritual home? How many people got into online novels here? And how many writers’ dreams began and ended here?
This website provides tens of thousands of frustrated people with a place to showcase their talents and a chance to change their destiny.

He, Cao Sheng, is one of them.

He himself is too introverted. When he was young, he relied on his good looks and thought it was okay to be quiet. He had good luck with women and all the women pursued him.

Only after entering the workplace did I realize that being handsome is only useful to women. Male colleagues will distance themselves from you and dislike you, and your boss will also doubt your ability because you are handsome.

At that time, his introverted personality and his taciturnity became a big obstacle for him in the workplace.

If he hadn't changed his career to writing online articles, with his personality, he probably would never have had the chance to earn over ten thousand yuan a month in his life.

Although he earned over ten thousand yuan a month, he did not become rich.

But it gave him the confidence that a man should have.

It also proves his personal ability.

Let him live a worry-free, peaceful and happy life.

In this respect, he should be grateful for the starting point.

And now, he witnessed the birth of Qidian with his own eyes.

Not only that, he is now the largest shareholder of Qidian.

He is required to try out the beta version of Qidian's webpage and decide whether the webpage needs to be modified?
"Okay, I'll try it out in a bit and give you my opinion tomorrow morning."

After briefly replying to Bao Jianfeng, Cao Sheng put down his phone and continued to eat.

After dinner, he returned to the study on the third floor with a cup of freshly brewed tea, turned on the computer, and opened the Qidian webpage according to the URL of Qidian.

Looking at the web page that was very similar in style to the early web pages of the original time and space starting point, many past events flashed through Cao Sheng's mind.

There are scenes of him looking for books to read on Qidian.

As a bystander, he witnessed the fierce competition among popular works on the new book list and monthly ticket list of Qidian.

There are also scenes of him as an author, and his own works reaching the top three on Qidian’s daily sales list for the first, second, and third time...

Yes.

During his peak period, his works once ranked in the top three of Qidian.com's daily sales list.

But each time I can’t stay on the list for long.

Sometimes it’s because a work suddenly gets a very good recommendation position, and the data of the work skyrocket, and it can top the daily sales list for several consecutive days.

Sometimes it’s because some wealthy book fans suddenly give gifts to the leader, thus increasing the daily sales of his works.

But even so, every time he sees his work enter the top ten of the daily sales list, he feels an indescribable sense of accomplishment.

Unfortunately, he was single during the period when that book was serialized. It was also because of his singleness that he was able to devote all his energy to writing such a work and maintain the state of frequent updates for a long time.

But because he is single, when he is most proud, there is no one around to share his joy.

He was even embarrassed to send a screenshot of such results to his book fan group.

He is worried that people will think he has a bad attitude and is a villain who is successful.

With mixed feelings, Cao Sheng began to try out the Qidian website.

There are still some differences from the early starting point webpage of the original time and space.

But the overall operation is quite simple.

In terms of style, it is similar to the current Under the Banyan Tree website.

So, after trying it for a while, he lost interest in continuing, but he was actually curious to see what the background of this version of Qidian author was like.

Before his rebirth, he was an old loser on Qidian. The page he was most familiar with was actually the author backend, because he would log in every day when updating his works.

Whenever he turns on his computer, he will habitually check the author background of Qidian. When he is bored, he will look at the data of his works or read book reviews.

He began to register his own author account on Qidian.

He hesitated for a long time when filling in his pen name.

He signed a contract with Under the Banyan Tree, which required him to serialize at least 800 million words of his works for free on Under the Banyan Tree.

And now, he is still far from completing the number of words stipulated in the contract.

Therefore, he certainly cannot use the pen name Zhongyuan Yidianhui on Qidian for the time being, unless he does not publish any works on Qidian before completing the contract under the banyan tree.

After hesitating for more than ten minutes, he finally came up with a new pen name: Dong Tianbao.

Dong Tianbao is the main villain in "Tai Chi Master".

This character has a well-known saying: My destiny is in my own hands.

Cao Sheng remembers that this was a movie filmed in the 1990s, so this character already exists. People who remember this character will know what it means just by looking at his pen name.

He thought about using "My fate is in my own hands" as his pen name.

But I feel that it is too straightforward and ostentatious.

It’s better to use the three words “Dong Tianbao”, which is more subtle.

After registering his pen name, he logged into the author’s backend.

I found that the main body of the author's backend is light gray, and the various functions are somewhat different from the version in the original time and space.

Looking at the number of works displayed on the author's background: 0
Cao Sheng always felt that the word "0" was quite annoying, and he was eager to try to publish a work using this author account.

……

The next morning.

He called Bao Jianfeng and didn't offer any suggestions, only saying that the website was well done and could be promoted.

Bao Jianfeng was very happy. As they chatted, he asked tentatively: "Mr. Cao, what I told you in the text message yesterday... Can you publish a work on our website? This is not only our website, but also your website! If your work is stationed on the website, even if you don't use the pen name Zhongyuan Yidianhui, we will feel more confident and can use your work as the main theme to attract a large number of readers. Have you... thought about it? Can you publish a work?"

Cao Sheng laughed slightly.

He could feel Bao Jianfeng's desire for his work.

"Let me think about it! Even if I want to publish my work, I have to think of a suitable work first, right?"

Bao Jianfeng: "Yes! Yes! Okay, okay! Then I'll wait for good news. You can take your time to think about it. Don't be in a hurry! Don't be in a hurry! Haha..."

Even through the phone, Cao Sheng could feel the other party's happiness.

While on the phone, Cao Sheng caught a glimpse of his assistant Wang Jing approaching.

He looked at her twice and saw that she was looking at him with a frown, so he guessed that she might have something to report, so he ended the call with Bao Jianfeng in a few words.

Putting down his phone, Cao Sheng smiled at Wang Jing and asked, "Sister Jing, what's up?"

Wang Jing strode over and said, "Boss! There are a lot of reporters outside the gate. When I came in just now, they surrounded me and interviewed me for a long time. They all said that they hope you can go out for an interview. From what I heard from them, I think they want to ask about your relationship with Sister Ya and Wang Zuxian. What do you think about this? Do you want to go out for their interview?"

Hearing this, Cao Sheng frowned.

He had just been chatting with Bao Jianfeng about promoting Qidian.com and whether or not to publish his works there, when he suddenly heard that there was a group of reporters outside the hospital gate who wanted to interview him about his relationship with the two women.

Who wouldn’t feel speechless about this?
But his reason told him: You will have to respond to this matter sooner or later. If you don't, some unscrupulous media will write nonsense, for example, saying that you are two-timing and are too guilty to accept media interviews.

For example: Write that you dare to do it but not to admit it.

and many more.

Once your reputation is damaged, it is extremely difficult to restore it.

If he were not a celebrity, he certainly wouldn't care about any scandals.

But he couldn't help but care now.

Seeing that he remained silent, Wang Jing whispered to him, "I think you should just go out and deal with it! Just clarify the facts right then and there."

Clarify the facts?
Cao Sheng looked at her with strange eyes.

I thought: Can this fact be clarified? If it is clarified, my reputation will be ruined.

"Okay! Then go out and clarify."

As he spoke, Cao Sheng walked towards the stairs.

Wang Jing hurriedly followed.

Clarify, he won't clarify.

Unless Wang Zuxian and Huang Qingya expose him together, he will never admit to cheating on his girlfriend.

The main thing is a tough talk.

When he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, facing the twenty or thirty reporters who quickly gathered outside the gate, Cao Sheng did not open the gate, just like last time.

The first question from the reporters was: Is the beautiful woman you kissed in the parking lot your lover? Is she your mistress?

Cao Sheng denied it flatly, "No! Next question!"

Seeing that he denied it, the second reporter asked, "Then what is your relationship with the beautiful woman you kissed? Why did you kiss her?"
