I Can Cash Up On My Web Novel - Chapter 5
Chapter 5: F-Tier Author
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
This editor called ‘Sake’ should be a girl from her tone. She was probably the cute type.
What a pity!
Lin Bai liked older sisters, so he was still not in a hurry.
First, he opened the chat panel of the smart customer service and understood the difficulty of signing a contract with the Myriad World Novel Network and the level of this “Classification Recommendation”.
He would not have known if he had not seen it, but he was shocked now that he had.
The sign on rate of the Myriad World Novel Network was actually so low that it made one’s hair stand on end.
Only 0.03%!
In other words, only three out of 10,000 authors could sign a contract!
Lin Bai looked at these statistics and sighed.
“No wonder there are so many trashy novels. It seems that most people can’t even get a contract.”
He still remembered the time when he was writing books on Earth, the website he was on had the lowest pass rate on the entire Internet, but it was still 5 to 8%.
Even though there was no threshold to writing novels, it was no longer a problem of standards to reach 0.03%.
Lin Bai had reason to suspect that the people of this world did not have a high literacy rate so there was a huge flaw in their language organization ability, causing such an outcome.
As for the recommendation slot…
That was the website’s selling point.
The better the recommendation location, the easier it would be to be seen by others. The corresponding level of exposure would also increase.
And the recommendation slot that Sake agreed to was actually the rarest among the newbie recommendations.
Typically, those authors who were invited to sign contracts could only obtain two types of recommendation slots: ‘popular categories’ and ‘new book selections’.
He could only advance and obtain the better ‘New Book Recommendation’ after he reached a certain standard.
Then, he would continue to PK with the works in ‘New Book Recommendations’ during the same period. Only those that reached the top five could obtain the ‘Classification Recommendation’ slot’.
There was no need to mention the amount of fame and money that would come with it.
However, Classification Recommendation was a higher and unique title.
It was equivalent to throwing the book “The girl beside the sycamore tree” on the top page of the Sexual Classification webpage. It could be seen at a glance.
It could be said that anyone who frequented this category would click in.
One could imagine how terrifying this exposure was.
Originally, he had to win first place in these rounds of battles if he wanted to obtain this recommendation slot.
In the end, Sake directly applied for Lin Bai to skip the cumbersome process.
Clearly, the website was nurturing his debut novel as a divine book and giving it the best support.
“This saves me a lot of time.”
Lin Bai was still confident in his book. Even though he did not write it especially seriously, it was still something that was difficult to obtain by the authors of the Myriad World Novel Network. One day, he would be able to obtain this recommendation slot with his strength.
However, he was still not in a hurry to sign the contract.
He planned to look at the deals from the other editors first.
There was nothing wrong with comparing goods!
He opened his backend message and roughly checked it.
During this period of time, many editors had found him, but the conditions they proposed were not as generous as what Sake offered.
This time, Lin Bai did not hesitate much and directly replied to Sake, agreeing to sign the contract with her.
The other party replied instantly.
Editor Sake: !!!
Editor Sake: Big Boss is alive!!!
Lin Bai: “?”
Do you have any manners?
Editor Sake: Ahahaha, I’m too excited… I’m sorry, Big Boss. I thought you had already signed a contract with another editor.
Lin Bai: I wanted to wait a little longer, but I really had no choice. You gave me too much.
The other party sent a smiling emoji.
After chatting for a while, Lin Bai successfully signed a contract with the website with Sake and officially became an F-Tier author of the Myriad World Novel Network.
…
The recommendation spot was obtained the day after. It would last for a week.
On the day he received the classification, Lin Bai saw the various statistics of “The girl beside the sycamore tree” increase greatly again.
He had already looked down on everyone on the new book rankings and occupied the first place.
He would also inherit the first place on the Author Newcomer Ranking.
His debut had already maxed out even though there were no special benefits.
More and more readers were diverted to his book under the dual effect of the recommendation slot and the rankings.
For a moment, the number of comments exceeded 100,000.
[Loner Qingyuan: The author’s writing is good, but obscene works can’t be ranked as elegant in the end. If he writes a proper novel, I, Qingyuan, will definitely subscribe to it in full.]
Fans +1!
This person seemed to be an Awakened who cultivated alone from the name.
He did not expect that as an ordinary person, he could actually conquer the strong with words and stories!
A sense of accomplishment spread in Lin Bai’s heart. He was secretly delighted and continued to browse the other comments.
[Immortal Master of the Qingping Path, Luo Cheng: The author is actually able to write an erotic novel so refreshingly and engrossingly. He can be considered a genius. Not bad, I’m looking forward to the next work.]
[True Lord of Nine Wanderings: Whoa, I haven’t seen a book that can make my heart itch uncontrollably for a long time. It’s just that this length is really too short. Why did such a good story end so quickly?]
[Heavenly Emperor Tianxin: Putting aside the story itself, the reason why this book can become popular is most likely because of lust. Heh, the author even specially used the first-person writing method to increase the sense of immersion, allowing a group of lechers and dirty people to fantasize about themselves as the protagonist of a novel having sex with the female protagonist. This method of attracting attention is really despicable!]
[Sage King of the Lil Sect: @Heavenly Emperor Tianxin speaking for yourself! The benevolent will see the benevolent, and the wise will see the wise. This book is so unique, and the story is peerlessly exciting. It far exceeds the new books of the entire station. You are so dirty-minded, but you can only see these things. How can you call yourself an Emperor with this level of attainment? Ridiculous!]
[Heavenly Emperor Tianxin: @Sage King of Lil Sect, you’re anxious already? Did I poke your sore spot?]
[Hehe, this book was indeed well written. The story was smooth and without delay, and the plot fluctuated. Some of the small settings and creativity were also refreshing.
The emotional entanglement between the male and female leads and the depiction of flesh scenes were all at the top-notch level, but can anyone deny the fact that the author used ‘erotic’ to attract people’s attention?
Don’t be so shallow when reading books. Everyone can learn with a critical perspective. It’s beneficial to the readers and authors.]
…
The muscles on Lin Bai’s face twitched from time to time while he was reading these comments.
What kind of talents are these?
The names were getting more and more chuunibyou1. They were probably crazy from reading fantasy novels.
Their way of speaking was also very strange.
It was neither scholarly nor modern, giving people the feeling that modern people were trying to express their thoughts in ancient language. However, because their level of culture was not high enough, it was a little idiotic in its seriousness.
“I’m really impressed that they can read pornography and understand it.”
Lin Bai closed the webpage and stopped paying attention to the comments.
All authors had their own arrogance.
It’s not up to you, a layman, to judge if the book I write is good or bad.
If you don’t think it’s good and that there’s still room for improvement. Write it down yourself!
Why read his books and suffer?
Why would an erotica be called an erotica if it wasn’t about sex?
Crazy!
