F*ck! I’m not dead yet!

“Well done.” Wang Hao was satisfied. He patted the owner’s shoulder. “I’ll come more frequently!”

Who wants you to come more frequently? I’m asking you not to come again!

But I can’t piss him off. He’s too powerful. It’s truly a blessing we didn’t get a blackout after he turned on the computer!

The owner said, “Boss, enjoy yourself here. I’ll go check the power!”

Wang Hao smiled and waved at him. “Go on, go on. Don’t worry. You’ll be fine today!”

The owner left with sweat trickling down his back…

“Speaking of which, I’m lucky today!” Wang Hao pondered. He had to make use of this opportunity. In order to succeed, he needed a good foundation!

Wang Hao turned on the computer and logged into QQ. He immediately opened the reader groups.

Fengyun Readers’ Club —

Sunday Wang: “Brothers, I’ve written a new novel called ‘Battle Through the Heavens.’ Here’s the link. Please bookmark and recommend it!”

Nude Girl: “Oh? You wrote this? Is it good? I’ll check it out.”

Angel Wings: “F*ck, the book number! It’s incredible! I have to take a look!”

Passerby Teen: “Let’s go and see if it’s good.”

It went pretty well in groups with just readers.

Of course, not all of them were like that —

The Daomeng Group —

Sunday Wang: “Brothers, I’ve written a new novel called ‘Battle Through the Heavens.’ Here’s the link. Please bookmark and recommend it!”

Daomeng Sun: “This group is for novels by Daomeng. Don’t send any links to other novels here. This is your first warning!”

This group was a bit tough.

The Martial Arts Reader Group —

Sunday Wang: “Brothers, I’ve written a new novel called ‘Battle Through the Heavens.’ Here’s the link. Please bookmark and recommend it!”

Spirit Shadows: “F*ck! Get out of here!”

You’ve been removed from The Martial Arts Reader Group.

It didn’t go well at all in this group…

F*ck you!

Successful or not, I’ll keep sending!

Wang Hao sent the message to all the QQ groups. Overall, half of it went well and the other half didn’t. The result was acceptable.

After that, Wang Hao refreshed the author management page —

Bookmarks: 31.

Two hours promoting the novel, and he only got 19 additional bookmarks. It didn’t seem to be having the desired effect.

“Damn,” Wang Hao mumbled, “promoting in QQ groups doesn’t seem to work…”

The starting stage of a new novel was the toughest for Wang Hao. There was nothing else he could do.

Luckily, the novel was definitely of high quality. A while later, Wang Hao received a message on QQ —

Nude Girl: “Brother, it’s pretty good. Do you have more chapters?”

Of course I do! Would I publish a novel if I didn’t have any more chapters?

Sunday Wang: “That’s it for now. I can assure you I’ll regularly release two chapters a day!”

Nude Girl: “Ah, I haven’t had enough. Do tell me when there are new chapters. I hope I can witness the rise of a guru!”

Sunday Wang: “Thank you. I will. Hehe.”

Angel Wings: “Your novel is wonderful! I’ll give you ten Fengyun coins. Keep it up!”

I’m going to cry! I finally got my first reward! Although ten coins are only worth a cent, it’s better than nothing!

Sunday Wang: “I’m touched! Thank you for the coins!”

Angel Wings: “Hehe, the title and the content are both appealing. I have faith in you! Just keep on writing. I’ll promote it for you when I’m free.”

Ahahaha! It’ll be easier after getting some readers!

There was finally some good news after the whole afternoon.

Things went much smoother when people had good fortune. While Wang Hao was feeling excited, he received a message from Sunflower.

Sunflower: “Sunday, I’ve finished another chapter. Tell me what you think!”

Wang Hao opened the document and glanced through it, then gave a contented nod.

Sunday Wang: “Well done. It’s nice. But pay attention in class.”

Sunflower: “I’m glad you like it. I’ll get back to class then. I’ll send you the next chapter tonight.”

Sunday Wang: “Okay. By the way, let’s meet this weekend. Bring the contract with you. I’ll give you your salary and talk to you about the next plot.”

Sunflower: “Okay, Sunday. No problem!”

“Details make a difference.”

Even though Wang Hao didn’t need to write the novel, there were some things he had to do himself, like fixing the typos. No matter how lucky he was, he had to put in some effort. Money wouldn’t fall from the sky. So, he tidied up all the released chapters, along with the new one which Sunflower had sent him, then started looking for typos.

After all, writers tended to type fast. When the ideas hit, writing 2000 words at once was a normal thing.

So, it was easy to make typos — it was a very common thing.

Let’s start from the beginning.

While Wang Hao was proofreading the chapter, a 24-year-old kid sat down next to him. The young man threw a pack of cigarettes onto the computer table, then lit a cigarette and looked at Wang Hao as he turned on the computer.

After a while, the young man asked, “Brother, are you a writer? Is this the novel you’re working on?”

I paid someone to write it for me!

Wang Hao nodded. “Yeah, just for fun. Haha.”

The young man replied, “You’re pretty talented. What’s the title of the novel? Can I have a look?”

Sure! It isn’t a dirty novel, anyway!

Wang Hao smiled and said, “It’s called ‘Battle Through the Heavens.’ I’ve just released two chapters.”

“Okay, let me see…” The young man started searching on “Fengyun,” but couldn’t find anything. “I can’t find it. What’s the book number?”

“1688888.” Wang Hao told him the book number.

“What the f*ck! This book number is awesome!” The young man put in the number and searched for the novel. When he finished reading it, the way he looked at Wang Hao was completely different. “Brother, you’re gifted! It’s impressive! Let me see the next chapter!”

It doesn’t feel right. How can I show him the later chapters so easily…

The young man said, “I’ll give you some coins. It’s awesome!”

Wang Hao took a peek…

F*ck! A rich kid! He gave me 20 yuan!

Wang Hao immediately nodded. “Deal! I’ll let you have a look, but keep it a secret!”

“For sure!” The young man sent the reward and quickly looked at Wang Hao’s screen. “Scroll up a bit… Right, right, here. Hm, I feel pity for Xiao Yan… F*ck, Nalan Yanran brought a man with her! He’s feeling numb… Every dog has its day! Great!”

He hit his lap fiercely, looking thrilled. “Brother, don’t worry. Your novel will be a hit! I’m giving you more coins!”
