Chapter 296
Li Anran's purpose in contacting this site where he spent a lot of time in college was simple. He wanted to use the site's ready-made platform and large group of authors to improve the setting of the fairy world.
In order to avoid the email he sent being regarded as a joke, Li Anran also made a special phone call to his investment company to let the other party get in touch with Qidian and further confirm his sincerity in wanting to cooperate.
Otherwise there is an old saying that goes, those who work hard govern others, and those who work hard govern others. Li Anran just communicated his ideas with the person in charge of the investment company, and the rest was completely handed over to him.
Let the other party handle it.
Not to mention, although the person in charge of the investment company did not understand why his invisible rich boss suddenly became interested in writing a book, but in line with the professional ethics of taking people's money and naturally doing things for them, he quickly made a breakthrough with Qidian.
Contacted.
After preliminary discussions, Qidian quickly posted a promotion about the essay solicitation event on the theme of "Prehistoric" on its website. However, unlike the normal essay solicitation event, the prize money this time was very generous.
Under normal circumstances, the reward for essay writing activities such as Qidian is usually a special prize. A bonus of 500,000 yuan is considered very good. The first prize is only 300,000 yuan, and the second prize is 150,000 yuan.
, the third prize looks like 100,000 yuan.
But this time, it directly increased tenfold, becoming a special prize worth 5 million; a first prize worth 3 million; a second prize worth 1.5 million; and a third prize worth 1.5 million.
The exaggerated figure of one million immediately caused a great sensation.
Just kidding, five million, under normal circumstances, you can only win by buying lottery tickets. Moreover, the chance of winning is full of tricks and uncertainties, but now as long as you can write a good book, you can win five million.
Millions of prizes.
In terms of probability alone, the possibility of getting this prize can throw away the lottery ticket. What's more, it was also stated in the event that the winning book will have the opportunity to be made into a cartoon or even a movie.
Live-action movies. There will be more benefits then.
Perhaps for those well-known authors who can earn tens of millions in royalties alone every year, the temptation of five million is not that great. But for the vast majority of new authors who can only earn some pocket money.
, but it is definitely a fatal temptation.
There is no way. In a profession like a full-time writer, not only the brain will be overloaded in order to keep updated, but the body will also have many problems due to long periods of sitting. Saying fatal is not an adjective. It is a real thing.
As relevant announcements and various publicity began to spread on the Internet and in real life, the entire online literary world was shocked. Even many well-known writers with high incomes were interested in this essay competition.
Strong interest.
There is another difference in this essay solicitation activity. It is not just one topic and let everyone play it casually, but directly requires the perfection and refinement of the entire world using "The Romance of the Gods" as the background.
.
In addition to four awards including the grand prize, this essay competition also has creative awards with a maximum of 500,000 and a minimum of 50,000,000. In other words, even if your book does not win the award, as long as it is creative
It's novel enough and reasonable enough, and it's also profitable.
Stimulated by the huge bonus, Qidian's essay solicitation event quickly became popular. In an instant, the entire website's newcomers and new book lists, contracted new book lists, and new book lists in various categories were quickly and completely submerged.
.
A large number of titles such as "The Prequel to Conferring Gods", "The Post-Confessing Gods", "The Crooked Biography of Conferring Gods", "The Strongest Conferred Gods in History", "Super Conferring Gods System", "Stories I Must Tell When I Conferred Gods", etc.
Novels like this have begun to increase at a speechless speed.
Not long after the essay competition started, Li Anran got some bad news from the investment company. It was said that someone above was eyeing this essay competition and wanted to eat the fat. To put it bluntly,
The hidden rules of the industry.
Regarding this news, Li Anran's reaction was very calm. On the surface, the answer was, isn't it just money? As long as he can find a book that truly satisfies him, he would give the money to anyone. But privately, he sent someone to investigate this daredevil.
The guy who reached out investigated.
In the end, it would have been better not to investigate. After investigating, I found out that a guy with such a good "appetite" is indeed not a good bird. With his rich background and some qualifications in the literary world, he will not do all kinds of bad things after sitting in a high position.
Do less.
For Li Anran, being able to compose a series of mythological novels according to his own settings that can be perfectly combined with "The Romance of the Gods" is of great significance. Whoever dares to do bad things from it will definitely be as good as destroying people's financial paths.
Murdering parents is even worse.
So, within a few days, various "interesting stories" about this guy suddenly spread on the Internet, and then in reality, a large number of reporting letters began to appear at the municipal and provincial levels.
There are relevant departments at the national level.
The most exaggerated thing is that before the relevant departments realized that they couldn't cover the lid and were about to take action, the guy who habitually stretched out his hand and kicked the steel plate suddenly disappeared, and the disappearance was quite complete.
No note was left.
After seeing the money of unknown origin, the missing person was naturally labeled as absconding in fear of crime. In addition, many people were afraid that they would also be pulled out, so they really felt that this result was good, so the previous
The turmoil turned into a serious matter and a trivial matter very quickly.
As for someone's life and death, no one cares about it except his family. After all, there are a lot of missing people across the country every year. There are also many who abscond in fear of crime and abscond with money. Who is willing to do this kind of thing?
Spend too much energy on it.
In fact, it is not that no one is suspicious of the investment company that cooperated with Qidian, but the background of the other party is very clean, and it is also a foreign-funded enterprise. From its establishment to the present, it has successfully completed several investment plans across the country.
.
Compared with the annual profits of this investment company, bonuses worth hundreds of millions are really not a big deal. There is absolutely no need to do such a big thing just because of this small amount of money, and there is no clear evidence that it is.
The other party is related to this matter.
Therefore, after just a routine investigation, it was settled. The essay solicitation activity on the theme of "Prehistoric" became even more popular because of this incident, and many online readers also joined in.
As for the whereabouts of this unlucky guy, to a certain extent, he did abscond. However, it was not of his own free will. Rather, without any knowledge, he found himself lying on a small sampan when he woke up.
.
And the most terrible thing is that this "naked" little sampan is floating on the sea where nothing can be seen except the sky and the endless sea. It only takes this unlucky guy an instant.
He was so scared that he fainted.
In fact, Li Anran didn't originally want to do something so extreme, but when he thought about how this person actually took advantage of his position to fuck a rising star in the literary world with a charming girl and then forced her to death, he suddenly felt that his idea was extremely clear.
.
In order to make sure that this damned person would not be rescued by unsuspecting people, Li Anran specially selected a good place for him to return to the underworld. Not to mention the boat, not even a seabird would appear.
The only fish that appeared were sharks.
What makes Li Anran very satisfied is that this damn guy stayed at sea for seven full days before he died, and he was still alive and scared to death out of despair. As for why he is satisfied, it is because this way of living is better than dying directly.
Falling would be even more terrifying.
After dealing with the blind guy, Li Anran, who knew that the essay contest could not yield results so quickly, stopped paying attention there and instead focused on the development of No. 2 Island for agricultural purposes.
On the plan.
After constantly traveling back and forth between the two time and spaces during this period, and a large number of plants and animals starting to grow and reproduce, Li Anran finally collected some species that were improved due to the "side effects" of time and space travel.
Considering that he had to eat the meal one bite at a time without choking, Li Anran thought about it for a long time before finally choosing three items: purebred horse racing, top beef cattle and cigar tobacco. (To be continued...
