Chapter 171: Chapter 171: Kiss me and give me a buff boost (Extra update)
"???" Three large question marks emerged in Jiang Xu's mind.
He said, somewhat disheartened, "Nuonuo, you are being quite cheeky."
The girl gave a small, amused laugh.
Jiang Xu was not one to be melodramatic.
Since An Nuonuo had said so, he decided to go to his room and write.
Lately, he had been going to bed around one o'clock.
"Martial Universe" was one 10,000-word update away from its grand finale.
Jiang Xu decided not to split the finale into chapters but instead compiled it into one massive 10,000-word "mega chapter".
The current published word count was just short of three million words.
The remaining two million words, updating at a pace of 10,000 words per day, would take roughly seven months to upload.
By the time he finished this novel, Jiang Xu would likely have finished his college entrance exams.
It took him a little over an hour to write the grand finale.
Jiang Xu purposefully left some suspense.
If the results exceeded expectations, for instance, reaching a monthly income of over a couple of million, he could continue writing.
After all, it was 'Fantasy' genre. He could introduce a more advanced map and start another few-hundred-thousand-word journey of character cultivation.
If the income was substantial, he had no problem churning out tens of millions of words.
Worst case scenario, he could create a detailed outline and give it to a ghostwriter to write.
Next, Jiang Xu checked the website's data.
The growth rates in all aspects were quite encouraging.
The number of people recharging passed 300,000.
Total recharge amount: 12.9 million yuan!
Besides that, the website had already contracted a group of writers.
Jiang Xu had a look.
Impressive! Quite a few of them became top-tier authors in the future.
Jiang Xu didn't plan on interfering, he would let things develop naturally.
The website's 'Female Story' category was also established.
However, currently, there wasn't any book yet.
After having dinner, he invited An Nuonuo into his room.
The girl's face was slightly uneasy.
After all, she was a girl, coming into a boy's room late at night was somewhat inappropriate.
However, Jiang Xu didn't notice An Nuonuo's awkwardness.
First, he presented the ready contract for her to sign.
Jiang Xu just requested the digital rights; all other rights remained with her.
Seeing how An Nuonuo signed without even reading it,
Jiang Xu advised, "You can't do this, not reading the contract. What if someone fools you?"
An Nuonuo: "You won't."
Jiang Xu: "I won't, but others might, you must be careful, get it?"
The girl nodded: "Got it."
Then, Jiang Xu allowed her to log into her email on his computer, copy the first 50,000 words of her manuscript, and post it.
An Nuonuo's novel was titled "Sweet Snow", quite poetic and picturesque.
The main focus was on school life.
Her writing was slightly immature, but the plot and content were overseen by Jiang Xu.
When the story reached over 200,000 words, there was no sign of a plot collapse.
Things like the book cover were also ready.
Utilizing his administrative privileges, Jiang Xu managed to quickly bypass all the lengthy approval processes and upload the book to the website.
Seeing An Nuonuo biting her lip, Jiang Xu knew she was anxious.
He patted the back of her hand, "Don't worry. All you have to do is write the remainder earnestly."
"Ok," An Nuonuo nodded slightly, then asked, "But what if the book doesn't do well? Will the website lose money?"
Jiang Xu was about to say that it would definitely not happen.
But seeing her worried look, he changed his tone, stating seriously: "Not necessarily!
Most of our website's readers are male.
The number of people potentially interested in your genre won't be large. Trying to promote it could result in a loss."
"Then I won't promote it," An Nuonuo's first thought was not to make Jiang Xu lose money.
As for whether she could make money or not, she didn't pay much attention.
Jiang Xu: "I have a secret recipe here, which can make your novel successful and won't cause me to lose money. Wanna hear?"
"Huh?" An Nuonuo was puzzled: "What secret recipe?"
"That would be..." Jiang Xu deliberately lengthened his speech.
After attracting An Nuonuo's attention, he said, "Kiss me, and give me a buff."
Only then did An Nuonuo realize that she had been fooled by Jiang Xu again.
She bit Jiang Xu's shoulder, paused for a few seconds, then ran out.
Then she popped her head back in, sticking her tongue out at Jiang Xu: "Bully, I'm going to tell auntie that you're bullying me."
Jiang Xu exclaimed: "An Nuonuo, you're crossing the line.
Why do you always bring up Lord Chen Yue? Can you show some martial virtue?"
"Nah, nah, nah, not gonna!"
The girl returned to the second floor.
Jiang Xu refocused his attention on his computer.
Resting his chin on his hand.
Trying to figure out how to promote An Nuonuo's novel.
The forum was out of the question.
Most of its users were males.
Even if it was promoted there, the effect would be minimal.
After some pondering, he decided that Weibo was the best choice.
The majority of its users were female.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xu opened Weibo and registered a new account.
He began a familiar task once more, writing a short essay.
The title of the essay: Reincarnation - I started writing novels in high school!
Hello, everyone, I am a reincarnator.
I can foresee the development trends in every industry for the next ten or so years.
I will lead domestic enterprises to the pinnacle of the world.
But now, I need some initial funds.
I ask everyone to go watch and subscribe to the novel I wrote, "Sweet Snow".
Today you give me a little subscription support, in the future, I will return you a unicorn company with a market value of over a trillion.
Just think, you only need to spend a few yuan to participate in a trillion-dollar project. Isn't that a little exciting...
In the end, he included the link to An Nuonuo's novel.
After writing, Jiang Xu checked it carefully.
Although this mini-article was slightly weird.
But the promotional effect was sure to max out.
The only possible downside might be.
The embarrassment An Nuonuo would experience when she found out about it later.
Jiang Xu was rather looking forward to knowing what expression An Nuonuo would have after seeing this mini-article.
But earning money was paramount, so he used the most efficient method.
Once he confirmed there were no typos, he clicked 'Post.'
Then Jiang Xu logged into his primary account, found the secondary one, followed it, and shared the mini-article. The text accompanying the share read: 'Friends, I found an amusing Weibo, so I'm sharing it with everyone. "Sweet Snow" looks pretty interesting.'
After posting it, Jiang Xu added some funds to Weibo for some traffic diffusion.
After doing all this, Jiang Xu went to brush his teeth and wash his face, prepared to sleep.
It would take more than just a few minutes or hours to see effective advertisement.
It needed time to ferment.
The next day, when Jiang Xu woke up, the first thing he did was open Weibo.
He wanted to check how effective his mini-article had been?
