Chapter 39 The Thirteenth Fleet
Fang Anxin picked up the signature book and said to her brother: "The first books all have special invisible ink seals from the first-time release of the Sisyphus Bookstore. Don't you know?"
"Who will know? And using invisible ink, isn't it difficult to see? It should be seen under the ultraviolet light?"
"Yes, ultraviolet lights. I've started playing like this since two or three years ago, and I've been playing like this before the Ming Dynasty. I know that the book friends are more experienced and senior. It doesn't matter who they are real fans. Otherwise, I won't send you to buy books for me."
Fang Antong said: "That Yue Qingyan is very pleasing to the eye. She looks like a good person."
"He probably won't like you to send him a good person card." Fang Anxin said with a smile. She put down the book, and the electric wheelchair passed through most of the room, and went to her workbench on the other side. On the 27-inch digital screen of Huakang Xindi, there was a drawing that was still in progress. "When the third volume was released, there was a reader meeting, and I'm going to attend."
"You are drawing this for the readers to prepare for a meeting? Are you going to type it out and give it to him?" Fang Antong said.
The picture is very homely and warm. In the middle of a living room covered with bookshelf, there is a large enough table. Yang Willie sat on the table with black tea, whiskey and cookies in hand. Yuri was cleaning the room, looking at his expression, he was quite dissatisfied with Admiral Yang.
"Yes, I've drawn it slowly. It's almost a month since I haven't finished it yet." Fang Anxin said: "However, I don't know when the reader exchange meeting will be there anyway, so don't worry."
"The third volume should be released in two weeks, and people in the past Ming Dynasty said today." Fang Antong said: "It seems that decisions such as animation are coming soon. However, there should be no plans for live-action movies and TV dramas."
"Not strange." Fang Anxin said: "With Jin Yuan carrying it, the art level can be supported. I have contact with Jin Yuan, but he doesn't know that I'm from the Book Club, he only knows that I'm a fan. The comic team has also been decided, and the main writer and script author are both from the Book Club."
"You... have penetrated the entire creative system of "Yinying"?" Fang Antong was a little scared. Could his sister be a genius working underground?
"Not exactly, right? They are first of all book fans. The script author is the attacking Felletligia, haha, I didn't expect it. The savage tongue boss took action to write the script, and this ID was specially opened." Fang Antong said: "The main writer of the comic should be Datian and Tian Yongji's team. His ID in the fleet is the strait cannon."
"You are so awesome." Fang Antong had a headache.
Most of these people are young people in their teenage years old to twenties, and the older ones are around thirty years old. Many of them are creators with some popularity in terms of text, comics, illustrations, art design, etc. Although these people are not big names, they have more or less fans, and the combined influence is quite considerable. "Yinying" has such an influence now, and the collective promotion and endless amendment of these people have played a considerable role.
"What are you going to do next?" Fang Antong was actually not worried about the review and public opinion of Yinying at all. Moreover, it seems that at least a large part of the relevant public opinion is in the hands of the Thirteenth Fleet.
What's wrong with real-name reporting? He no longer guesses who are chasing books. Some people dare to stop the serialization of "Yinying" today, and the next day they will be annoyed by the inexplicable pressure.
"We are ready to contact Mingqian. Now it is too large. If we don't match the official resources, it will be a bit difficult to develop in the future. We are preparing to integrate our own resources and official links to obtain the sharing rights of some art design resources. In this way, our own economic system will be established. We can also participate in the organization of some official activities, or even lead the organization of offline activities. A few friends even said that we will contract this part of the business. In addition to "Yinying", we may also use a similar model to operate other works in the future." Fang Anxin said.
"Is this your idea?" asked the brother who knows his sister so well: "This behavior is too similar to you."
"Because, although fans come very quickly, it is really not easy to maintain for a long time. On the one hand, it is love, on the other hand, it is time and money. Both of them need to be concentrated to form an effective interactive mechanism. Fans recommend fans, but they cannot develop a hierarchical system, so this becomes a pyramid scheme organization. But if fans always pay and have no rewards, it will not last long. However, the rewards required by fans are not necessarily money, but influence, status and cognition among fans, and some signs that can show qualifications or other things. You see, I have the signature book of the first-time ceremony version in my hand, which is amazing. Moreover, fans actually have their own time, energy, skills and resources. After integrating, they can do more and more. How can they use these things and how can they give back to these efforts?"
Fang Anxin sighed and said, "It's so troublesome. Dedication and rewards are equal, which is one aspect. But when rewarding fans with resources and wealth, other ordinary fans should not be ignored. Otherwise, they will not be able to continue playing. It is really difficult to make this complex model and how to empower users in the specific planning and operation process."
Fang Antong is almost kneeling down. Just a fan organization, is it so complicated? It involves so many situations and mathematical models? If all the things Fang Anxin just said just now can be sorted out and can really form an effective system, it is simply a model case.
"It reminds me of a word...it's probably related."
"Blockchain?" Fang Anxin sneered: "We have been researching it long ago. The 13th Fleet Laboratory Department has two applied mathematics, and there are about ten programmers. We are almost completing the preliminary model development. OK?"
"Damn you really are a fan group? I feel like you are starting a business? How about asking your parents to join an angel wheel?"
"No. We can do it on our own. Now the expenditure on manpower and labor is zero." Fang Anxin laughed: "After all, no matter how you play a book friend, it is non-profit. I said it a long time ago, using sales to support smoking is the maximum limit. It would be better to make money by relying on this."
The Thirteenth Fleet now publishes news based on Weibo and WeChat public accounts. On the night of the launch ceremony, these two platforms announced several photos of "Yanhuo" and various detailed photos of the entire launch ceremony. There are also those news released by the company in the Ming Dynasty.
It is generally said that this author looks good, he is very good to fans, and he is not ugly. He is not a fat occult author, but a little like a young scholar. But thinking about it is true that although "Yinying" is not history, too many of the writing styles are very "historical writing", with a strong sense of heaviness and reality. If you don't have enough academic foundation, you may not be able to write such a text.
In addition to these news, what made readers and fans even more excited was that on the night of the press conference, the rumor "The Stars of Thousand Billion, The Light of Thousand Billion" was released online to thank the readers, and also sent two 4K-level clarity wallpapers painted by Jin Yuan, full of sincerity. The reader group screamed, and felt that it was so happy that he was treated well by the publisher by the author. The rumor "The Stars of Thousand Billion" was written by Reinhardt and Yang Willie at the 18th. The timeline was several years before the story began, and it was full of cuteness.
After urgent communication between the book club and the senior management of Mingqian company, the news of the next reader meeting was also disclosed in advance. Originally, Mingqian company was planning to rent the library's multimedia activity room to hold events, but after statistics, it was found that the enthusiasm of the book clubs was underestimated and the venue was definitely not enough. It was instead rented a cultural square to hold events, and was preparing to find an afternoon where there was no performance there. The venue was divided into three floors and a private room, which could accommodate thousands of people. On the one hand, the first floor lobby alone should be about the same, but if the scene exploded, there would be a buffering allowance. The on-site management of such venues has enough experience for fans and high traffic personnel. Even for interactions between the stage, there are mature cases that can be referred to.
Of course, the venue rental fee is not cheap, but it cannot withstand the company is willing to spend money in Mingqian, and the Cultural Plaza is also willing to lower the price. The two sides hit it off.
The quota for participating in the book club will be divided into two channels: public and targeted distribution. The 13th Fleet received 40% of the total quota.
Soon, Yue Qingyan knew about this situation. He sighed that now, the content distribution channels in the content industry have really changed tremendously. Every author is concerned about operating fans. In addition to maintaining his popularity and gaining more recognition, it is of course also for greater benefits.
"I want to meet the person in charge of the 13th Fleet. Can you help me contact me?" Yue Qingyan immediately called Xu Yingying after learning about the matter.
"Oh? Yes." Xu Yingying said in surprise: "They have a close relationship with us now. I'll ask, and then I'll get a group and you guys make an appointment?"
"That's fine." Yue Qingyan thought of something: "I used to say that I wanted to find an assistant, now it should be time. Xiao Mo is almost busy now. I can't continue like this. Are you sending me a recruitment? Is it okay to have a relationship with Mingqian? Is it possible to bear the relevant expenses."
"These are trivial matters. OK, I'll go and implement it. You can wait for the news." Xu Yingying hung up the phone with a smile.
For Yue Qingyan, on the one hand, the fans and other authors have fought each other, and on the other hand, the fans-related matters are too complicated, and Mooresheng really can't stand it. In addition, it is also because no matter what, the speed of understanding various situations and dynamics through the publishing house is really slower.
The cultural circle has a short window for fighting, opportunities and news. Yue Qingyan must have enough reaction speed and sufficient execution. After all, his influence has gradually reached a certain line, and the chance of being involved in various things in the future is only higher.
