Continue to spend on middle and bottom authors?

The group of horses was slightly confused and lost.

In his opinion, the benefits of the end to middle-level and low-level authors are good enough, and they are basically on par with the big station of Infinity.

However, it is difficult to further improve the income brought by middle-level and low-level authors to the website.

Because writing is a kind of literary creation, it is a very subjective thing in itself.

Some authors still can't write a hit after ten years of writing;

And some great gods, who write a million words casually, immediately grasp the essence of the online article and win the crown.

So, the key is to look at the people.

Even if the website tries its best to dig and cultivate, the author base is here, and being a great god is equivalent to buying a lottery ticket.

What if the person digging is not that piece of material at all?

In comparison, it is obviously more reliable to poach people directly from other websites.

But since Mr. Pei has already said it, the group of horses has no choice but to obey.

"Okay, Mr. Pei, I'll do it."

……

Going upstairs and back to the finish line, Ma Qun sat down in his office and began to think about what kind of plan to come up with.

Mr. Pei's guidelines have been determined, that is, this money cannot be used to poach people, and can only continue to be spent on the middle and low-level authors of the website.

Of course, the standards are uniform, and the top authors of the site will certainly enjoy this perk.

But for high-level authors, the end point has not yet reached the stage where they can operate copyright, and their main source of income is subscriptions, which can only be regarded as the icing on the cake for them, and will not be a deciding factor.

The group of horses thought about it for a moment.

For low- and middle-level authors, the benefits given by infinity, such as full attendance, are also given at the end point, and the standard is a little higher than infinity.

If you want to continue to give benefits, you must work the benefits that other online websites are reluctant to give.

Moreover, when it comes to the benefits for middle- and low-level authors, it is definitely mainly considered for middle-level authors.

Because the number of low-level authors is so large that it can't be considered at all.

Some people apply for a pen name on a whim, write thousands of words, and can barely be a low-level author.

If you want to think about giving benefits to such people, then the website becomes a charity, and no amount of money is enough to spend, after all, it is a pure loss-making business.

The key is the mid-level authors.

They stand out from the bottom, which proves that they have the perseverance and ability to continue to create, are relatively reliable, and will not suddenly release readers and website pigeons; With the accumulation of experience and experience, coupled with a little luck, some of them may be able to grow into top-level authors.

So, the money still has to be spent on them.

The group of horses fell into deep thought.

"So, for these middle-level authors, in addition to the unlimited things that can be given such as manuscript fees, readers, and popularity, what do they need most?"

"Yes...... Guarantee. ”

"Career development planning and guidance."

"Mild social relationships."

and...... A more regular, healthier lifestyle. ”

"In this way, this guarantee can only be given to some people, and it has to go through strict screening."

Ma felt that he had found the right direction and began to write a plan.

Mr. Pei is right, you can't fight with infinite money, even if you can dig up some authors, it is not a long-term plan after all.

Because of the wide readership of the infinite and the large author base, the hematopoietic capacity is much higher than the end point.

Therefore, no matter how you think about it, in terms of the development prospects of middle-level authors, infinity is the end point.

Then, if you want to attract more middle-level authors, you must make use of your strengths and avoid your weaknesses, and don't care too much about the aspects that everyone can see, such as manuscript fees, readers, and exposure, but work the aspects that everyone can't see.

For example, the most basic living security.

The author has no basic salary, no five insurances and one housing fund, and the success of each book is full of risks.

It's not impossible to pay five insurances and one housing fund by yourself, but you have to hand over the company's share together, which is equivalent to paying two shares.

Another example is career development planning and guidance.

Most of the authors are basically free-range, with many authors and few editors, and many middle-level authors can't say a few words to the editors a year.

Of course, many conscientious editors will discuss writing issues with authors, but the fact that there are too many monks and too little porridge determines that this is a treatment that can only be enjoyed by a small number of authors.

That's why many authors will set up author groups, exchange experiences with each other in the group, and grow together.

Compared with the "old with new" model of ordinary companies, the career development planning and guidance of the online literature industry can basically be said to be close to zero, and it all depends on the author's own enlightenment.

Also, a healthier lifestyle.

Online writers belong to freelance professions, and there are many common problems of freelancing, which is irregular life.

Irregular life will directly affect the body, such as cervical spine and lumbar spine diseases, or high blood pressure, obesity and other problems, and the news of sudden death also occurs from time to time.

After all, self-control is only one aspect of maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Everyone's self-control is different, and another key factor is the environment.

Many people only think about playing at home and have no efficiency, but when they go to the company or school study room, the efficiency will increase, which is the impact of the environment.

From this point of view, it is difficult to say that those full-time authors who are more newer have self-control in other aspects, but they must have strong self-control in this aspect of work.

So, the group of horses thought about it for a long time and finally decided.

At the end of the line, I have to run a class!

It is not the kind of study class that only talks about theory, but an experience class that provides protection for middle-level authors, provides career planning and guidance, and cultivates a healthy lifestyle!

The preliminary plan of Ma Group is to select 30 people from the current middle-level authors at the end point in the form of voluntary registration of authors + website editor screening.

This is the first batch, try it out first and see how it works.

Reimburse them for expenses, after coming to Jingzhou, food and accommodation are all arranged in a unified manner, anyway, there are fish takeaways, and the rent does not cost much.

These people are given a basic salary of 3,000 yuan, and five insurances and one housing fund are paid as the standard.

Find an office building near your residence, rent 30 cheaper workstations, and ask them to clock in and out of work every day according to Tengda's working hours.

In addition, some seminars and experience sharing meetings are held regularly, so that some authors with good grades can talk about their experiences.

If each author wants to open a new book, or when he writes that the key points of the plot cannot be advanced, he can discuss it with other authors a little and listen to his or her opinions.

In such an environment, the relationship between these authors is less like a colleague and more like a classmate and friend.

Of course, not all authors are interested in such an experience class.

Many authors, especially older and more experienced ones, are not interested in a basic salary, moving to Beijing to manage food and housing, and writing like commuting to work with other authors.

They will feel that online writing is freelance, and the advantage of freelancing is that you don't have to go out at home, and you ask me to go to work in Jingzhou, isn't that a reversal?

For such authors, it is clear that they will not be forced either.

Therefore, this workshop is mainly aimed at young authors who have not yet started a family.

These authors are motivated, have great potential, and make rapid progress, but have a poor sense of self-management, and have certain social needs and career development demands.

This workshop will be held for a month to test the water and see how it works.

If it does work, then scale up and extend the time later.

……

After sending off the group of horses, Pei Qian looked at the notes for less than half an hour.

"Ding!"

I received a message on my phone.

Pei Qian picked it up and saw that it was sent by Chef Lin.

"Mr. Pei, it seems that a new high-end restaurant has opened in the city, and it seems that it is coming for Mingyun's private kitchen. It's called Mingfu Family Banquet, and it's also a high-end dining route! ”

"It seems that it has been opened in the past two days, and Mingyun's private chef's recent reservations can be felt to be significantly reduced, what should I do?"

Seeing this message, Pei Qian was stunned for a moment.

Mingfu family dinner?

High-end catering for Mingyun Private Kitchen?

Could it be the one that Mr. Li invested in?

Pei Qian remembered that Mr. Li did mention this matter last month, saying that he, Xue Zhebin, and Wang Peng had not been able to book a seat in Mingyun's private chef, which was very painful, so he wanted to cooperate with Pei Qian to open a chain of nameless restaurants, but Pei Qian refused.

So, these three people can only open the store by themselves.

Calculating the time, this matter should have been prepared before Li Shi and Pei Qian officially explained, and it had just opened in the past two days.

Pei Qian replied "Got it" to Chef Lin, and then dialed Li Shi's phone.

"Mr. Li, is the Mingfu family banquet a high-end restaurant you opened?"

On the other side of the phone, Li Shi smiled: "Yes, Mr. Pei." Why, you say you don't care, but in fact you keep paying attention? ”

Pei Qian: "......"

I've been keeping an eye on a ghost.

If it hadn't been for Chef Lin sending me a message, I wouldn't have known that all of your high-end restaurants would have officially opened.

Pei Qian didn't bother to say anything, the more he described it, the darker it became, and he simply got straight to the point: "Mr. Li, didn't I say that I would go to eat the first meal after your restaurant opened?" Why don't you give me a notice? ”

Li Shi coughed twice: "Ahem, Mr. Pei, I'm really sorry, I've been a little busy lately, and it's easy to forget things when I'm busy." Besides, I thought you were just talking about it. ”

"My fault, in this way, when you come to eat one day, I will ask the restaurant to give you a seven-fold discount! It's kind of compensation. ”

Seven folds? Not free?

This Mr. Li is also picky enough.

However, Pei Qian thought about it, even if Mr. Li really gave him a waiver, he couldn't accept it.

Seven percent off is seven percent off.

"Okay, then it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, just today! Leave me a good place in the evening, and I'll charter the venue. Pei Qian was quite casual.

"Package...... Chartered? Tonight? On the other side of the phone, Li Shi was obviously stunned for a moment, "Well, it's a little difficult to charter a venue tonight, and there are already many people who have made an appointment at 7 o'clock in the evening." ”

"I don't eat after seven o'clock, I'll arrive at four o'clock, and I can finish it at five o'clock, you can pack up and welcome the next wave of guests, don't delay."

"Do you have enough ingredients for that dish?"

Pei Qian looked at his watch, and the time was 3:40 p.m.

The Mingfu Family Banquet is not very far from here, and it will take you almost 20 minutes by taxi.

Li Shi was silent for a long time: "Individual ingredients may not be enough, but most of them are enough." Okay, Mr. Pei, if you can really come now, of course it's good, welcome. ”

Pei Qian: "Okay, I'll see you later." ”

After hanging up the phone, Pei Qian immediately got up and put away his notes.

Learn what to study, eat and go!

Four o'clock arrived, and the food was more than five o'clock, which was just the right time, so as not to delay everyone's work and go home to rest.
