"The Story of the Cultivation God" was uploaded on January 1th, 7565. It has been four years since then.
The third place didn't dare to comment on the story of "The Cultivation God", but the results of "The Cultivation God" were obvious to all. Using Qidian's words, it was a flop!
Actually, this result was already known to the third place in 7565. "The Story of the Cultivation God" was signed as a collaboration at the very beginning. It could be said that it was a temporary job for Qidian. Afterwards, the third place always applied to sign a contract, but the reply was always "Your work is not up to the standard of signing a contract, please continue to work hard". It was the same for 85,555, 15,555, 755,555. In the end, the third place didn't even apply anymore.
Just like that, until September 7565, "The Story of the Cultivation God" had reached 6.7 million words. Finally, the editor sent me a message saying that I could sign the contract!
As for why I signed the contract, it wasn't because "The Story of the Cultivation God" was outstanding, but because it was too long. In addition, at that time, many novels had already been signed. I also tried to send a message to the editor on QQ. Although he didn't reply, he still saw it. Because of the hard work of the third place, I signed the contract.
After signing the contract, there was a long wait. The editor told me that if it couldn't be published in December, then I should consider stopping and start another book.
But the third place clearly remembered that at that time, the third place unhesitatingly replied, "I must finish the book, even if it can't be published!"
Afterwards, in order to get it published, the third place specially compared the pros and cons of other Xianxia novels and sent it to the editor. Finally, in December, the 6.0 million words "The Story of the Cultivation God" was published. Others strongly promoted it, but the third place didn't. Rumor has it that it was a consolation, but the third place didn't understand. The third place only knew that he could finally receive money!
Because for an entire year, the third place received less than 755 yuan. Qidian didn't even send him money.
As for the number of subscriptions for "The Story of the Cultivation God", the third place can't remember. It should be in the single digits, or under 85?
In short, it was embarrassing!
Because when the first volume of "The Story of the Cultivation God" ended, the number of subscriptions was only around 675.
After another year, under the third place's efforts, "The Story of the Cultivation God" finally ended. According to the third place's thoughts, it should be a new book called "Light Tracing".
It was a pity that Tanhua was considered a veteran author and should have enjoyed the privilege of directly sending it to the editor via QQ. However, the new editor had to send it via QQ email.
Alright, Tanhua knew that Tanhua wasn't a famous author, so she used her email. In the end, the editor sent an email a week later. Tanhua remembered clearly that the editor didn't agree to continue writing this story after "The Legend of the Cultivation God". Furthermore, the editor thought: "For the readers, there isn't enough immersion, and the story as a whole doesn't have anything that can immediately grab their attention. Everyone writes Xianxia novels, so why should the readers read your new book that doesn't have any special features and highlights?
Were they going to rely entirely on their old readers?
My personal suggestion is to write a new book. Design the beginning of the story well. "
