Losing Money to Be a Tycoon - Chapter 1414
Chapter 1414: The Attractiveness Of The Top Author
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The authors were listening intently, their eyes burning with hope.
“Well said!”
“Didn’t I say that Old Cui was in Versailles previously? Don’t you have so much to say? Why do you insist that you don’t have any experience? If you don’t have any experience, what are we?”
“That’s right, that’s right. Do you have anything else to say? Stop hiding it. Raise the Tengda spirit and guide us!”
“So Boss Pei had already planned the creative direction of the inspiration class, but I never knew…”
“That’s right. When I think about how I used to watch dramas all day in the inspiration class, even though I was collecting material, I was actually slacking. I feel like I’ve let Boss Pei down and nurtured me…”
“Old Cui is still the most reliable. When Yu Fei returned the last time, we asked him to talk about his experience. In the end, not only did he not talk about it, he even tried his best to ordinary it. I’m so angry!”
Cui Geng was a little surprised. “Yu Fei came back? What did he say?”
Cui Geng had not seen Yu Fei since he became the chief planner of Tengda Games.
The authors were indignant as they said, “We asked him to talk about his creative experience and creative concepts, the connection between games and novels. Guess what he said in the end?”
“He said that he did not have any creative experience at all. Eternal Reincarnation was purely written as a fanfiction. He did not have any creative concept at all.”
“He also said that the success of the game adapted by Eternal Reincarnation was all thanks to Boss Pei. It had nothing to do with him at all.”
“Oh, he also said that he is now a chief designer who is very muddle-headed. He does not know how to design games at all. He can only barely complete his work with the help of Boss Pei, the project team, and the others.”
“Old Cui, please be reasonable. How can such a person exist in this world?”
“It’s fine if you say that you’re posturing, but you have to at least pretend to be rounder. However, Yu Fei is good. He doesn’t pretend to be rounder at all. Instead, he’s very stiff! Don’t you think he’s deliberately making me angry!”
Cui Geng nodded in agreement. “Yes, it is indeed infuriating!”
“However, I feel that his words still have a little credibility. Boss Pei must have brought him to do a lot of design work. Otherwise, he would not have been able to get used to it so quickly.”
The authors sighed. “Sigh, I became the chief designer of Tengda Games by writing. I’m so envious!”
Of course, that was what everyone said. The chief designer of Tengda Games had indeed earned more and made bigger projects. However, everyone felt that not everyone could be qualified.
Yu Fei said that he did not know anything. He must have had the potential to be unearthed by Boss Pei.
Instead of being envious of Yu Fei, it was better to continue writing seriously and write the next work that could be adapted from copyright.
If the authors could choose between the two options, they would still choose Cui Geng, not Yu Fei.
Cui Geng felt so good. Every day, he would slack off and happily take the commission. It was the perfect life that the authors had imagined.
Cui Geng’s previous speech had also encouraged the authors of the inspiration class!
Zhongdian Chinese Network’s authors were extremely eager to sign up for the inspiration class ever since all three works were successfully adapted.
Many outstanding authors who had written well in the past year wanted to join the inspiration class.
Previously, authors who had not produced much in the inspiration class had lost the qualifications for the inspiration class. They were filled with regret. At that moment, they were buried in preparing their new books, thinking that they would obtain the opportunity to study in the inspiration class again after the results of the new book were released.
Even many foreign authors chose to jump ship to Zhongdian Chinese Network!
The discussion about the inspiration class online also increased Zhongdian Chinese Network’s website traffic.
Apart from the top-tier writers on Zhongdian Chinese Network, there was still a gap between them and large stations like Infinite Chinese Network. Mid-tier and low-tier writers were already earning about the same or even better. After all, Zhongdian Chinese Network gave more authors.
Zhongdian Chinese Network was equally attractive to the top writers.
That was because royalties were a very important source of income for most of them. However, the revision of copyrights with a high success rate was even more attractive to them!
Most reliable websites could consider selling copyrights and revising copyrights as long as they produced results. However, the question was, what would they change to? The author was actually not confident at all.
Some of the revised works ended up with poor results. Perhaps it was because the production company was not good enough or because of capital intervention that the essence of the original works was not filmed.
Such a situation did not exist in the inspiration class because the three successful copyright adaptations had proven that Tengda was the best in animation, film, and games in the country!
In fact, copyrights mainly involved animation, film, and games.
At most, he would add comics. However, the domestic comic industry was not very popular at the moment. Thus, he did not expect the comic version rights to be sold at a high price.
There was no need to talk about other audio books or physical books.
Thus, many top writers were very shocked to see that all three works of Zhongdian Chinese Network’s inspiration class had been adapted successfully. Even works like ‘Successor’ that looked completely contradicting the traditional online literature concept had been successfully adapted.
This was obviously not a production company that was a burden, but a production company that could fly!
In terms of filming, there were a few large companies in the country that could compete with Fei Huang Workspace. The game adaptation was Tengda’s only one. The other domestic game merchants were not useful at all!
What’s more, Tengda’s copyright profits were very tempting.
Most of the copyrights of other websites were at the same price. The losses and profits of the movies basically had nothing to do with the original author.
However, Tengda was different. The original author participated in the commission, and the commission was very high!
How much commission could Yu Fei, Cui Geng, and the others get from their own works? They would definitely not tell the outside world about this, but anyone could guess that it would definitely be an astronomical figure. It would definitely crush the royalties of these top authors. It would probably also be higher than the copyright funds of those famous works.
To put it bluntly, these three people would be able to live a stable life with these three adapted works.
How could the other authors not be tempted?
Even the authors from other websites were scrambling for it, much less the authors who were already in the inspiration class.
Cui Geng’s previous guidance had enlightened them and given them a direction to work towards.
Previously, everyone had been confused. They did not know what the inspiration class was going to create. They only collected inspiration aimlessly without a clear direction.
However, they had a direction now!
After Cui Geng finished his lecture, some authors could not wait to collect inspiration and start writing. Some authors surrounded Cui Geng and asked him more questions.
Cui Geng was also very passionate and did not refuse anyone.
In the end, they chatted from morning to lunch, and then from lunch to afternoon.
This lesson had exhausted Cui Geng.
It was almost five in the afternoon when everyone left.
“Sh * t, I’m screwed again today.”
“I thought that I would at least be able to create a new folder today.”
“However, this is not my fault. I can only say that the other authors were too passionate. I had no choice but to delay my writing time in order to convey Boss Pei’s creative concept to them.”
“Sigh, I’m such a selfless person.”
“I can only think about it next week.”
Cui Geng was prepared to slip away.
The inspiration class did not work during weekends, so Cui Geng could only create new folders for his new book on Monday.
He was just about to leave when he received a call.
It was from Huang Sibo.
“Old Cui, there’s a gathering at the nameless restaurant on Sunday, which is the 20th. Will you come along? Yu Fei, Lu Zhiyao, Zhang Zuting, and the core members of Fei Huang Workspace will all be there.”
Cui Geng perked up when he heard that.
“I’ll definitely go!”
Who would reject a feast at the nameless restaurant?
He had to admit that Lu Zhiyao, Zhang Zuting, and the others were very crafty. They had obviously figured out the rules.
Everyone knew that Boss Pei would book the entire nameless restaurant on the 20th of every month. They would definitely be able to eat there!
Needless to say, these two movie kings must have come to freeload in order to thank the production team and Boss Pei.
Was that thanks? It was obviously for the food at the nameless restaurant! I wouldn’t hesitate to expose you!
However, that was good as well. Please increase your strength!
How could Cui Geng go to the nameless restaurant legitimately if they did not come to freeload?
Cui Geng walked straight to Fish-Catching Internet Cafe happily and continued playing games. Then, he looked forward to the feast on Sunday.
…
…
January 20th, Sunday…
Zhang Yan sat in her GL seat as usual and started live-streaming.
She had been grinding for three consecutive days ever since the game was released.
He could not stop!
When she first started playing the game, she felt that it was quite strange: Preface fishing and law enforcement. If she wanted to officially get a driver’s license, she had to start over if she accidentally killed the driver on the way…
Ridiculous!
Other racing games did not dare to do this at all. This’ Safe and Civilized Driving ‘was the only one.
However, once he accepted this setting, it actually felt quite exciting!
It was precisely because there was a driver’s license examination before the top laner and a car collision punishment that Zhang Yan would drive seriously. That was why she would work hard to pursue zero accidents and improve her driving skills.
Maintaining zero accidents on the road could also bring people a strange joy.
Zhang Yan began to work hard on obtaining the driver’s license for large trucks and long distance cars after completely adapting to the rankings. She also began to learn about racing.
Zhang Yan had previously gone to the racing track to practice drifting, but she had only trained for a few hours in total. The skills she had learned were very basic and shallow.
After all, in reality, the expenses for the racing track were too huge. Even if Zhang Yan’s family background was not bad, she could not bear to spend so much money.
What’s more, her family did not support her at all. On one hand, her parents felt that it would be unacceptable for girls to play racing games. On the other hand, they felt that such sports were dangerous.
Zhang Yan’s parents were even less supportive after watching many videos of racing drivers failing.
However, there was no problem in the game!
Zhang Yan was obviously engrossed. Apart from live-streaming and driving, she would also search for the tutorials released by professional drivers online.. The live-stream system that Bunny Tail Live-stream released for Safe and Civilized Driving greatly reduced her learning cost.
