Chapter Seventeen Departure

  This middle-aged man named Zheng Guoshan is the technical director of the web. Just now, he suddenly received a report from the data monitoring group, saying that there was an abnormality in the book's data, with collections and clicks surging, and rewards were also crazy, and in no time, several hundred million alliances were born.

  Upon receiving this report, Zheng Guoshan also took a look and found it to be a book called "Fantasy City" written by Lu Li, whom he had never heard of. It wasn't even on the recommended list, yet its data suddenly surged so much that it seemed suspiciously like it was being manipulated. So he didn't think much about it and just came to report it.

  If it were a top-notch author, Zheng Guoshan would observe for a while longer, because many top authors have had such things happen. Book friends support him! Although Zheng Guoshan is a technical person, he works here and knows the names of several top authors. But this name, Lu Li, has never been heard before. So although he knew that several editors were discussing something at the moment, he still chose to ask how to handle it.

  The editors sitting in the office are now staring at each other, they were just discussing "Fantasy City", and unexpectedly received such news.

  At this time, these editors also opened the background of "Fantasy City" on their computers in front of them, each with a strange expression.

  Even Gu Feng, who was supporting the signing of "Fantasy City", was stunned at this moment. Such data is too astonishing. If it were on a great god's body, such data would be crazy but not surprising. But if it were the data of an ultra-high god, it would be frightening to death. However, this "Fantasy City" hasn't even been signed yet, how did its data rise so quickly? Is it being brushed up? Gu Feng had some doubts in his heart.

  Many editors present also had such an idea in their minds.

  "Alright, this 'Phantom City' is signed." Suddenly said Chief Editor Shi Maozhou.

  "Stone, this data has been brushed, how can such a book be signed?" The editor who just opposed the signing of "Fantasy City" asked doubtfully.

  "Look at the people who are rewarding, if someone can find these people to help him brush, that's also his ability. Also, look at what our website's big spenders say, 'If the website doesn't sign you, we'll support you.' I think our editing team is sometimes too conservative, Gu Feng did a good job this time, it was you who first proposed signing 'Fantasy City'. Shi Maozhou also had doubts about brushing data, but after seeing the people who were rewarding clearly, he dispelled his concerns."

  Mosquitoes, body inches green, silence is precious, this milk and so on, are all old bookworms of the net, and as long as it's a good book, they reward generously. Moreover, after reading what they said about the website not signing us to come and support, Shi Maozhou's face also felt some burning sensation, isn't this saying that their editors' vision is not good?

  Other editors also saw the first few donors at this moment and fell silent, the fact speaks for itself.

  "Gu Feng, Lu Li is the author of your group. The contract for 'Huan Cheng' will be handed over to you. Please settle this matter as soon as possible and let the author update it quickly." Shi Maozhou made a final decision, ending this temporary meeting.

  "Alright." Gu Feng was somewhat excited, he also really liked the book "Fantasy City", and it just so happened that the author was in his group. So he really hoped to be able to sign a contract with this book, not wanting to waste the potential of a new talent.

  Song Min is a high school student in Hua Zhou, who loves to read online novels. The world in the novels makes him infatuated and deeply fascinated. Every time he reads one, he feels as if he has transformed into the protagonist, dominating the world with his commands.

  It's the time for summer vacation, and Hua Zhou is also extremely hot. As a homebody, Song Min wouldn't go out at this time anyway. He logs onto the internet as usual to enter the world of books. At the same time, he makes up his mind that next semester will be his senior year, so he'll spend the summer vacation reading several books and then work hard to review for the college entrance exam. Yeah, of course, once he gets to university, he can read all day long, Song Min thinks contentedly to himself.

  "Huh, whose masterpiece is this 'Fantasy City' that suddenly topped the bestseller list?" As soon as he entered the website's homepage, Song Min saw that "Fantasy City" was ranked first on the 24-hour bestseller list.

  Song Min was curious and also clicked in.

  "Lüdí, I've never heard of such a great god? And not signed, just over 70,000 words, it can't be brushed, right?" With this question in mind, Song Mín scrolled down the webpage, wanting to take a look at the book review section first.

  Song Min was always like this, except for the books of the gods he chased after, when reading other people's books, he would first take a look at the comments section.

  " Mosquito rewards 'Fantasy City' with 1 million yy coins. Such a good book deserves this reward. Can't sign a contract, mosquito will support you."

  "Silence is golden, rewarding 'Fantasy City' with 1 million yy coins, hoping it won't be too censored."

  "Damn, you're so despicable! Sneaking up to me with your sinister intentions. You spent 1 million yy coins on 'Fantasy City' and the web editor's eyesight is getting worse and worse. Such a great book isn't even signed. No worries, if we can't sign you, we'll support you."

  ……

  Song Min didn't finish reading the book review, he only saw the red comments on the homepage of the book review section, and then saw that readers like Mosquito, Silent is Precise, and Body Inch Green were all enthusiastically commenting, Song Min couldn't help himself, he had to read this book.

  But then Song Min got hooked and dove in, over 70,000 words. At his usual reading speed, he would have finished it in no time. However, this time Song Min read very slowly, the emotional descriptions touched him deeply. Moreover, when he saw Kassor and others enter the Western Protection Domain, Song Min also spent some time thinking about the reasoning behind it, which delayed him for a long time.

  But when he saw that only Kasso, Moon Goddess and Huang Jue were left in the hotel eating, the Moon Goddess and Huang Jue finally started a fight, Kasso struck at the Moon Goddess, and Huang Jue suddenly killed the Moon Goddess, Kasso saw Huang Jue's sinister smile...

  Song Min's heart was even more anxious, eager to see what the truth really looked like. Was Huang Jue really the Western Guardian? Moreover, Kasso's companion had only one person left here, that is, if Huang Jue was the Western Guardian, then what about Kasso?

  Song Min couldn't bear to think about it anymore and directly clicked on the next chapter, but there wasn't one.

  This feeling...

  Song Min is dead, and his current feeling is the same as Liu Xiaoyuan's today, it's really torturing.

  It took Song Min a good half day to recover from the plot, what a great book, it's really a great book, such a great book isn't signed, no wonder several readers couldn't hold back. And he was also thinking if it was because of not being signed that caused the author to stop updating.

  "Great book, it's really a great book. If I don't collect it, recommend it and reward it, I'd be sorry to the author." Song Min said after finishing this sentence, he went back to the page, collected it, directly sent up recommendation votes, and then symbolically rewarded it a bit. After all, Song Min was still a high school student, and his family couldn't compare with Liu Xiaowen's wealthy family, so he could only reward it with good intentions.

  Such a scene occurred in many places of Huaxia at almost the same time, and many people were curious about the best-selling book that had not been signed and clicked in. And many people got stuck in it, collected, recommended, and rewarded more and more, which was also the reason why the network technology department suddenly discovered that the data of "Fantasy City" was abnormal.

  It can be said that Liu Xiaowen and others' crazy rewards directly let many people see this book, which has never been signed or recommended by the website.

  After the brief temporary meeting of the web editing department, Gu Feng returned to the office and immediately sent a contract message to Lu Li. However, it was destined that Lu Li would not see this contract message today, nor did he know that his hiatus had caused many book friends to reward him, with several million yuan in rewards in a short period of time.

  The next day, Lu Li got up early for his morning exercise as usual, but after finishing his exercise, he didn't open his computer to code. Instead, he brought a series of documents and went to the Civil Affairs Department to get them stamped.

  Since his parents did not support his choice of major and the family's financial situation could not afford to support Lu Li's studies, he thought of applying for a student loan.

  It wasn't until the afternoon that Lu Li finally completed all the formalities and felt relieved. When he returned home, Lu Li felt exhausted, he didn't expect the procedures for applying for a student loan to be so complicated. Plus, the hot weather made it even more unbearable.

  Actually, if Lu Li logged onto the website today, he would find that it was completely unnecessary for him to apply for this thing. The rewards from book friends alone were already a lot, and even after deducting the website's share, it was enough to cover Lu Li's tuition fees for the first year.

  Lu Li is going to participate in the art examination of Huaxia Music Academy in Hua Jing Province tomorrow, so in the next few days, Lu Li did not log in to the Internet once, and even more did not update a chapter. This made the starting point editor's department headache, because Lu Li's speculation about the discontinuation due to the inability to sign a contract has been recognized by all book friends. Lu Li didn't update for a few days, some readers have already called the YY customer service, directly saying that the editor's vision is not good and so on.

  This statement is unfair to these editors, especially Gu Feng. It's not that they didn't sign the contract, but rather that they sent a contract message and didn't get a response. Of course, they also don't dare to disregard the opinions of these readers, because those who called were all big shots among the website's readers.

  It wasn't until Gu Feng and Liu Xiaowen communicated that Liu Xiaowen posted an explanation that the hiatus of Huan Cheng had nothing to do with signing a contract, and only then did the book friends gradually calm down.

  Of course, Ludi didn't know all this. At this moment, he had already boarded the direct train from Huajing to Huajing and was on his way to participate in the art examination of Huaxia Music Academy.

  PS: I've been paying attention to Kunming's situation all day and don't have the mood to write, it's too crazy. Pray for Kunming.
