Reborn, I achieved legendary status with a single book.

Chapter 248: I'll sing a song for the readers, the theme song of Sword Comes, "Know Me". (Please subscribe)
"pretty."

"Hahaha, I've been wondering how Bu Yangshen would respond. I never expected that this would be so damn awesome."

"Very good, well done."

You don't know you're wrong; you know you're going to die.

This single sentence caused quite a stir among the viewers on SkyNet.

That would be a classic reply.

At the same time, this sentence truly brings out the most satisfying moments in online novels.

Isn't the point of reading online novels to have fun?

just now.

People discovered.

In reality, Chen Yang is the quintessential protagonist of an online novel.

"Ding Bu Yang Shen, you don't just know you're wrong, you know you're going to die. Everyone, cheer up! This guy isn't sincerely apologizing at all. Don't go to that other website again."

"I won't go even if it's just a sincere apology. Is it enough to just apologize after making a mistake? It's not acceptable, not even in online novels."

"Yes, mistakes must have consequences. Otherwise, wouldn't the world be in chaos? And let me say this, anyone who writes books on that other website is a dog."

"Anyone who writes a book on the website next door is a dog."

of course.

Chen Yang wouldn't just criticize him once on SkyNet.

the next day.

Chen Yang then called Bao Jian: "Bao Jian, I have an idea I'd like to discuss with you."

"You said."

"I think Qidian (the online writing platform) can allow fan fiction writing."

"Hasn't Qidian always had fanfiction?"

"Different."

Chen Yang said, "There was such a thing before, but fan fiction does involve copyright infringement. It's just that the original authors don't want to sue, and if they did, they'd win every time. But if we formalize fan fiction and ensure that all fan fiction writers have their rights protected, then we'll not only have more fan fiction writers, but the original authors will also benefit."

"That's a great idea. You mean we should reach fan fiction agreements with the original authors, or buy their copyrights?"

"Purchasing is an option, but I think a revenue-sharing model is better. After all, buying the copyright is too expensive, and with the current strength of our website, we need to spend the money elsewhere. For revenue sharing, I suggest that the original author can take 10% of the revenue, and the remaining 90% goes to the fan fiction authors. This way, the fan fiction authors' creations will not be affected in any way, and they will also be protected. At the same time, the original author can also get 10% of the revenue, and they will be more willing to license."

"Don't praise the gods... Your idea is excellent. However, isn't 10 points too few?"

"It won't be less. Baojian, think about it, Qidian doesn't only have one fanfiction. If one person writes a fanfiction for a particular author, he can get 10 points of revenue. If 10 people write it, he can get 10 points of revenue, 100, 1000... it's all distributed like that. As long as there are people writing fanfiction like this, the revenue sharing will continue, which is actually a considerable income."

"That's true. Chen Yang, I'll discuss this with everyone later."

"Hmm. My Great Thousand World, Battle Through the Heavens, Dragon and Snake, I Have a Show-Off and Face-Slapping System, Rising to the Top... etc., can all authorize any author to write my fanfiction. However, it can only be on Qidian."

"Good lad. I see now, you're after revenge."

"Hahaha, swords, don't you want them?"

"Nonsense... OK, just wait and see how I destroy that website."

……

The starting point acted quickly.

After Chen Yang made one phone call, they immediately began signing copyright agreements with the various original authors.

The original authors here include traditional novelists, martial arts novelists, and of course, online novelists.

There are also a series of TV series and film copyright fan works.

They even went to Japan and the United States to sign a series of comic book and movie fan copyright agreements.

The signing was also very successful.

Almost immediately after the other party expressed its intention to cooperate, a number of copyright holders and individuals signed agreements.

As for why.

This is similar to the electronic copyrights of films and television dramas that Chen Yang purchased before.

These copyrights were not originally protected on the Internet.

The original authors and copyright holders don't get a single penny.

Now we've finally found a merchant who not only gives you money but also gives you a share of the profits later.

Who wouldn't agree to this kind of free money offer?

Half a month later.

When Qidian holds a series of various fan fiction copyright contracts.

Qidian has officially announced its Qidian fan fiction creation plan.

It's similar to what Chen Yang suggested.

This plan is open to all authors.

As long as the author participates in fan fiction, not only will there be no legal issues, but they will also receive copyright protection.

Of course, one thing is that 10% of the revenue needs to be given to the original author.

There's also one more thing.

It is necessary to create at the starting point.

This fan fiction project has excited many authors in the industry.

To know.

Fan fiction is a major genre in online literature.

This is especially true for early online novels.

Basically, a large portion of them write fan fiction.

For example, moon viewing.

He started by writing fan fiction based on Jin Yong's works.

same.

Some "infinite flow" novels are actually similar in concept to fan fiction.

Previously, these would have resulted in copyright disputes.

it's good now.

These copyrights were obtained through cooperation with Qidian, allowing all authors to create legitimately.

"Qidian is awesome, majestic and domineering."

"Tsk tsk, they actually managed to acquire a huge number of fan fiction copyrights, including Japanese anime copyrights. Very impressive and powerful."

"Um, I'm a fanfiction writer on the website next door, what should I do now?"

"What do you think? Hurry up and go back to the starting point, or I'll sue you and the website next door together."

"Holy crap... you can do that too. Okay, okay, I'll head back to the starting point right away."

This move was made.

This directly dragged all the fanfiction authors back to Qidian.

not only.

This fan fiction writing project has also aroused great interest among many authors in the industry: "Brothers, did you all see that? It seems that even novels by Bu Yangshen can be written under these fan fiction copyrights."

"What do you mean?"

"You can also write fanfiction that doesn't glorify gods. For example, you can write fanfiction about the vast world, like Doupo fanfiction or even Dragon and Snake Romance..."

"Holy crap, are online novels starting to have fan fiction too?"

"Yes. Web novels are more enjoyable than traditional works. I had thought about web novel fanfiction before. However, there weren't any particularly outstanding works at the time, or rather, people might have felt that web novels lacked sophistication. But now, with Bu Yang Shen leading the way, sophistication is no longer an issue. I predict that there will definitely be a large number of web novel fanfiction works appearing in the future."

"Ahem... I've started a new book, 'Transmigrating into the Unremarkable God Fantasy World, Kicking Xiao Yan and Punching Wang Chao,' please support it."

"Damn... you really are a dog."

Ok.

This wave has attracted countless authors.

……

"Chopping wood, you've done a good job."

For novel reading websites.

The most valuable resources of a website are its authors and its readers.

The site next door didn't have many authors or many readers to begin with.

If they had poured money into it, they could have survived to some extent.

But Chen Yang had previously criticized them under the guise of righteousness.

Then another wave was drawn away by the Qidian fan fiction writing program.

This made matters worse for the neighboring website, which already had very few authors.

even.

Not just the website next door.

For example, a certain horizontal website.

As a website not affiliated with Qidian, they hadn't even launched any major actions yet, and were simply caught in the crossfire.

If they hadn't implemented a large number of buyouts for new authors, many more authors might have been lured away by Qidian.

……

"Congratulations to the God of Unyielding on his return to the throne."

"The young man reveals his true identity, and returns as a king."

"The number one online writer, Bu Yangshen, do you have any thoughts to share?"

An unknown group.

Chen Yang logged into his QQ account again.

at this time.

The authors in the group were incredibly excited.

Even if it's divine wisdom.

At this moment, everyone shouted, "The number one online writer!"

All the authors are actually very proud people.

They never submit to anyone.

but now.

All authors admire Chen Yang.

They can fight their way back to number one even by using multiple accounts... There's someone here who can do it all.

It's safe to say that very few people would dare to do that.

I don't mean that using an alternate account will lead to failure.

Based on their writing skills, they believed that even if they used pseudonyms, they would still rise to prominence.

But rising to prominence is one thing.

Whether it can reach the original peak is another matter.

Therefore, they genuinely admired Chen Yang's return.

I can only say I admire them to the point of prostration.

"Gentlemen...you're trying to flatter me to death."

Chen Yang sent a trembling emoji.

"What do you mean by flattering someone to death? Your strength is right here. Even if we wanted to fuck your ass, we wouldn't allow it."

"Yes, not to mention, Bu Yangshen, how much have you contributed to our online literature?"

"What contributions?"

"Damn, I'll really count them for you then. You were the one who suggested the monthly ticket reward system for online novels in the beginning, right?"

"Well, I was really poor back then, so I thought of making money by doing rewards."

"We don't care. This monthly pass reward has now been implemented for all of us authors. In addition, you also suggested a full attendance system. Not only do we benefit, but all authors across the entire network benefit."

"Yeah, yeah, I'm just a loser who always gets perfect attendance."

The toad also said something.

Chen Yang said with a smile, "If we don't show off, we can still be good friends." This made the group laugh again.

then.

The group then began to recount Chen Yang's contributions to online literature: "Take online novel fanfiction for example. Tsk tsk, Shenji, Tang San, Tomato, and Dong Ge... There have been quite a few fanfictions of your works lately. I'm thinking that next month your royalties will include some fanfiction copyright income. I'm so envious."

talking.

Tang San, Shenji, Fanqie, Chen Dong... they also said, "Yes, we'll get our royalties next month. Bu Yang Shen, we want to treat you to dinner."

Chen Yang said, "There's no need for a meal, it's only a small amount of money. I think you could give me half of your royalties."

"So this is the kind of unassuming god you are."

"That's right, after all, it was my idea. How could you not share the royalties with me?"

"Get lost! If you keep saying that, there won't be any food left."

"Sigh, so this is what kind of experts you are. I'm so disappointed."

"Hahaha……"

In an unknown group chat, laughter and cheerful conversation filled the air.

……

Chen Yang's return.

This is not just a major event for the industry.

At the same time.

The traffic on Qidian also reached a new peak on the day of Chen Yang's return.

The fans' support for Chen Yang was absolutely frenzied.

Especially for some friends who didn't know Chen Yang had used an alias before.

When I saw that the pen name "Sword Comes" had changed back to "Unremarkable".

Amidst the shock, Chen Yang's fans, along with countless longtime fans, fervently supported the work "Sword Comes".

"2 per unit."

"2.5 per unit."

"Oh my god, the average price is set at 3."

The novel "Sword Comes" was already very popular.

At this moment, Chen Yang's old fans arrived.

have to.

It was incredibly popular, reaching the heavens.

"My happiness is priceless, please accept my reward."

"Such a fine article deserves this reward."

"Cat Hongjun gave a reward..."

"Blue Moon tip..."

"Xiao has given a tip..."

Ok.

The last few days.

As long as you open the website.

You can see the website showing red messages all the time.

This is a group of long-time fans of Qidian giving Chen Yang a huge reward.

It's not as simple as tipping one or two alliances.

For big shots like MaoMaoHongReng.

It's just like that, with 10 alliances at a time.

You think it's just like the cat-shaped red roe?

Later, big names like Blue Moon, Xiao Tongxue, and Fing also appeared.

An accident.

With Chen Yang's "Sword Comes", he gained five billionaires.

This situation left Chen Yang completely dumbfounded.

"Hey, Kitty, you're not here to launder money, are you?"

"Pfft..."

Upon seeing the message Chen Yang sent, Maomao almost choked: "God Chen Yang, you've broken my heart."

The other big shots in the group also burst into laughter: "Yes, yes, you guessed right, Bu Yang Shen. Maomao has made too much money and needs to wash it off here."

of course.

That's a joke.

After some further investigation...

Chen Yang finally understood.

It turns out that after the last annual meeting, a group of bigwigs invested in a lot of real estate and stocks, following Chen Yang's advice.

Of course.

They were just trying it out.

But as the market moved step by step, it turned out to be exactly the same as Chen Yang's prediction.

Behind.

They then became bolder.

It's only been a year.

Several tycoons have made a huge profit from real estate and stocks.

That's why they tipped Chen Yang without batting an eye.

for them.

Ten alliances, a hundred alliances... that's all small change.

Such a situation.

It almost made Chen Yang consider writing a book about stock trading.

Think about your past life.

Some authors write articles about stock trading.

The subscription rate is so-so.

The amount of tips was overwhelming.

For a period of time.

The authors of stock market novels consistently top the Qidian sales charts based solely on donations.

But after thinking about it again, I decided against it.

Investing in the stock market involves risks.

The opportunities from 09 to 10 have already been used up.

After that, it just kept declining, and there weren't many good opportunities.

Even if there are opportunities in certain phases, it's not easy for Chen Yang to capitalize on them.

Also.

Investing in stocks is not only risky, but it can also be addictive.

If Chen Yang sets this example...

It's great if everyone makes money, but if they lose money later, it will cause a series of unnecessary troubles.

There's another one.

If I write articles about stock trading and then receive donations from fans, will this raise legal risks such as fundraising?
These are all things that need to be considered.

Chen Yang's fame and status are different now.

An average author might be able to write articles about stock trading.

But he... is actually not quite suitable in some ways.

……

but.

Chen Yang's return also brought one unpleasant surprise.

Chen Yang discovered.

His large fan base seems to have disappeared.

The final step.

Chen Yang understood.

He was kicked out of the fan group by a group of long-time fans.

"Holy crap... Guys, you've kicked me out."

Chen Yang was dumbfounded.

He only has 5 fan groups now.

That is, the fan group he created using his own QQ account.

Later, they had just too many fans.

Chen Yang's QQ account cannot create an unlimited number of groups.

Then some other fans created a QQ group and invited Chen Yang to join it.

"Hahaha, you only just realized that now, you God."

"No... are you guys betraying us?"

"Don't worry, it won't happen."

"They won't kick me out again."

"Who told you to use an alternate account without telling us?"

"Uh... I can't. If I tell everyone, they'll have something to say about me. Brothers, I have no choice. Come on, pull me back."

"No."

"Don't say that. What kind of fan group is it if there's no author's fan group?"

"That's none of our business. Anyway, you can continue writing your book, and we'll still support you. We just hate seeing you now."

"I……"

Chen Yang was getting a little frantic.

These guys are being naughty again.

However, Chen Yang didn't think anything of it.

Chen Yang has always maintained a positive attitude while writing.

Fans like you because you have qualities they like.

If fans don't like you, it's because there are things you haven't done well enough.

There was no hierarchy among the people; everyone respected each other.

If you don't do well, it's normal for them to stop liking you.

However, Chen Yang still enjoys chatting and bragging with his fans.

Otherwise, why write a book?

After finishing the book, if he didn't have so many fans, how could Chen Yang show off and have fun?

"Hey guys, how about... I sing you a song, please forgive me?"

After thinking for a moment, Chen Yang said.

"Sing?"

"Yes. Sing the theme song from Sword Comes."

“The Lord has not proclaimed God…and is tempting us again.”

"It's not to tempt everyone. It wasn't my intention to use an alternate account without telling the brothers before, and it's really hard to say. Of course, I know the brothers were sad. This song is called 'Know Me,' which is both the theme song of Sword Comes and a way to thank the brothers for their continued support. At the same time, it's also a song for the brothers."
