NOVEL NEXT Chapter 56
“Chairman, this is completely false. It is just a rumor outside. There is no such scum in the company.”
Wu Wenhui said with a serious face
“very good”
“The word scum is well used.”
“I hope not”
“But let me be frank. I can ignore the past, but from today on, if I find anyone who sells out the interests of the company, whether it is an employee or a senior executive, I will pursue legal responsibility and send him to prison.”
When he said this, Su Chengyang’s aura emanated from him.
Regardless of the faces of the few people, he continued,”Regarding the issue of piracy, we still need to crack down on it severely.”
“My idea is to eliminate it from within, that is, to use technology to prevent theft. You guys can decide how to solve this.”
“Secondly, the company has set up an anti-piracy action team, with 50 million yuan of funds every year, to do this specifically! In particular, they will sue the source pirated websites, and will not accept any settlement or compensation, and must send them to prison.”
“In addition, if it is an overseas server, in this case, you can change your mindset. I have seen that these pirated websites all have advertisements. Generally speaking, these advertisements are obtained through advertising alliances.
Advertising alliances often have formal functions. Once found, they are required to provide the contact information of the pirated website, or bank card number and other information, and hand it over to the police. In this way, these pirates can be dug out and held accountable for legal responsibility.”
“Chairman, what if these advertising alliances don’t cooperate?”
Hou Xiaoqiang asked in a low voice
“Don’t cooperate?”
Su Chengyang laughed, his face suddenly became serious, and he said murderously:”Three zero three zero zero zero” whoever doesn’t cooperate will be sued. They knew it was illegal, but still cooperated with others, then they will be sued for joint liability and held legally responsible.”
“Kill one to warn the rest. I want to see how many companies dare to challenge.”
Wu Wenhui, Hou Xiaoqiang and others stopped talking immediately, shocked by Su Chengyang’s murderous words.
In fact, it is not difficult to crack down on piracy.
The reason why many large websites don’t do so is mainly because the cost is too high.
The annual net profit is only tens of millions, so how can they afford to crack down on piracy.
Secondly, websites like Qidian don’t pay much attention to e-subscriptions, but pay more attention to copyright operations. Of course, there are too many pirated websites. If you knock down one, another will pop up immediately.
It’s impossible to finish them all.
However, Su Chengyang is different.
He is willing to spend money and play slowly. This year, he will knock down dozens of people, detain dozens or hundreds of people, and continue next year.
If this continues for a few years, or even more than ten years, he doesn’t believe that it can’t be done.
In a word, he wants to make everyone dare not pirate. When thinking about piracy, one would think about being sent to jail if caught. Only in this way can they be deterred.
Seeing that the new boss, Su Chengyang, was willing to spend a lot of money to fight piracy, Wu Wenhui, Hou Xiaoqiang and others could no longer say discouraging words. Besides, if novel piracy could be eradicated, it would be a win-win situation for both the platform website and the author. Without piracy, the platform revenue would surely increase several times.
That afternoon, the newly formed Shanhai Literature announced on Weibo the establishment of an anti-piracy action team, which would do its utmost to crack down on any pirated novel website and reward users who reported pirated novels and provided clues. The action was referred to as the”Sword” action.
After the message was sent out, it soon caused a huge stir in the online literature circle.
“Wow, that’s awesome. I hope it’s not just thunder with little rain.”
“Awesome, this time they are serious. My editor told me about the sneak attack, saying that the group’s big boss made a decision at a meeting and allocated 50 million yuan every year to combat piracy.”
“50 million? Oh my god, this is a lot of money…It’s really different to have a big company behind you. Now those pirated websites are probably going to tremble in fear.”
“Wow, Qidian finally got tough for once. I support the fight against piracy.”..
A QQ group named [Safe Haven].
This is a novel author group, which is full of novel authors from major platforms, including those who write for male and female audiences. What is different from ordinary novel author groups is that any of the pseudonyms in this novel author group is a famous figure in the online literature circle, including some great writers and platinum authors.
At this time, the group was very lively, and the topic of discussion was the announcement released by Shanhai Literature on the crackdown on piracy.
“Hey, everyone has read the news. This time I see that they are serious. Hurry up and start publishing. It’s a good time. I want to see how effective this is in combating piracy.”
“If these websites can really crack down on piracy, I think my income from writing articles could double or triple.”
“This should have been done a long time ago. These pirated novel websites are too abominable.”
“The new boss is really bold, unlike some overpass”
“Can a certain Tianqiao compare with the new boss? He is a big shot who even acquired Activision Blizzard. Can a Tianqiao compare with him?”
“Now it’s good, everyone’s royalties can go up”
“No more talking, I’m going to type”……
Countless online writers cheered and supported Shanhai Literature’s heavy blow against piracy.
Meanwhile, in a group of websites that sell pirated novels, pessimism was everywhere.
“Brothers, I think the situation is tense, so forget it. Don’t take risks. If you get caught, you’ll go to jail.”
“What are you afraid of? Our servers are overseas, in the United States. Can they find us?”
“You can’t say that. What if that happens?”
“Forget it, I just built this website and it doesn’t have much traffic, so I’d better not take the risk.”
“Hey, after hearing what you said, I think I should continue to move.���Better, at least there is no risk”……
“Look how scared you are. If we could be caught easily, we would have been caught long ago. Why wait until now? This is just a pretense to fool some timid people. You really believe it.”
An Internet user named”梦逍遥” replied in the group
“The group leader said so, there must be no problem”
“That is, the group owner has been doing this for so many years, if there is a problem, he would have been arrested long ago. Didn’t he also conduct piracy operations a few years ago? What was the result? It’s just a show.”
“If you ask me, everyone should just do what they are supposed to do. If you are timid, just quit and don’t do it.”
“support~”…
In the Central Plains, Xinyang Town.
A disheveled young man in his twenties was looking at the chat on the computer and couldn’t help grinning.
He put his hands on the keyboard and started typing.
Meng Xiaoyao:”I just rented a new cabinet recently. Is there anyone who wants to rent a VPS server? It’s on sale now, only 50% off for the first month. In addition, if you buy a cloud server, you can get VIP updated chapters of many original novel websites for free. The limit is 30 places. Hurry up if you want to buy it.”
After the message was sent, the group instantly exploded.
“Group leader, I want it!”
“I also want”
“How much does it cost for a group leader to collect novels?”……
Under the hype of hunger marketing, the 30 places were soon filled.
Immediately, he sent out the collection rules he wrote himself.
He opened another novel website, named”Silu Chinese”. This is his novel website. He has dozens of similar websites, all of which are pirated novels.
Relying on the advertisements and pop-up ads on the website, one website can earn more than 10,000 yuan a month. A larger website can earn up to 30,000 or 40,000 yuan a month. Relying on the site group, he now has more than 200,000 yuan in advertising revenue a month.
In addition to selling servers, collectors and collection rules, he can easily make 300,000 yuan a month.
Of course, not everyone can make so much.
Most pirated websites only have a few hundred or more than a thousand yuan in advertising a month.
Some websites even make less than 100 yuan.
In short, the more traffic a website has, the higher the advertising revenue.
As usual, he needs to test the collector to avoid the collector being unable to automatically collect due to changes in the target website.
After checking that the collector was running normally, he exited the server.
He glanced at the time on the bottom right of the computer.
“I almost forgot that today is the time to withdraw the advertising fee.”
Patting his head, Meng Xiaoyao opened the website of the advertising alliance, entered his account number and logged in, and took a look at the income for this month.
187,300 yuan.
Although it was 20,000 to 30,000 yuan less than the previous two months, Meng Xiaoyao was indescribably happy to see this income figure. He pressed the screenshot shortcut key and sent this picture to his novel QQ group. Suddenly, the whole group was boiling.
“Wow, more than 180,000, monthly income more than 180,000, the group owner is amazing”
“Awesome~~After this year, it must be over a million”
“That’s awesome. Would you accept me as a disciple? I want to learn how to build a novel website from you…………”
“Damn, with this kind of income, I’ll take the risk…………”
“I’m jealous!”
“Envy +1″……
Seeing the praise from the group members, ‘Meng Xiaoyao’ felt very comfortable
“Forget about accepting disciples. If you don’t understand something, you can check the information in the group.”
“Okay, I’m going to have dinner.”
After sending the message, Meng Xiaoyao got up, picked up the clothes on the bed, put them on, and planned to go out for dinner.
At the same time, far away in Yanjing, a company called Sifang Business Alliance welcomed seven or eight people in police uniforms.
“Who is the boss here?” one of the leading police officers asked
“Hello, Mr. Policeman, I am the boss here, may I help you?
A man with a big belly walked up quickly.
“Hello, we are from the Haiding District Public Security Bureau. Someone has reported that the advertising alliance operated by your company is suspected of transferring profits to infringing and pirated novel websites. Please accept our investigation.”
“Everyone sat still.”
“Xiao Wang, check it out!”
“It’s the captain!”
I saw a police officer come forward and sit down in front of a computer, asking one of the company employees to cooperate with the operation and input the address according to the list website. Soon the result came out.
“Captain, we have found out that the advertising alliance website operated by this company does have a cooperative relationship with the website involved in the case, and there was a withdrawal operation record just 20 minutes ago.”
“Oh? Can you find out how much money the people involved in the case have withdrawn in total?” the leader asked.
“I checked and found that he withdrew money every month. From the records, he withdrew money 11 times, and the amount involved was as high as 2.06 million yuan.”
“What about character profile information?”
“I have also checked that the address filled in is from Zhongyuan”
“Okay, notify the police in Central China, and then send them a warrant for assistance in the arrest.”
“Okay, Captain!”
Xiao Wang nodded in agreement
“You.”
The leader pointed at the fat-bellied boss of the company and said,”Come with us.” The fat-bellied policeman quickly said,”Mr. Policeman, I haven’t committed any crime, why should I go with you?””
“Have you not broken the law yet?”
The leading police captain smiled and held the man’s shoulder and said,”Whether you have broken the law or not is not up to you or me, only the court has the final say. Now you are suspected of making profit transactions for pirated websites, we have the right to ask you to go back and assist in the investigation.”
“Come, take him away!”
The captain waved his hand, and two police officers immediately stepped forward and clamped the boss.
“By the way, Xiaolin, check the transaction records of this company to see if there are any similar situations.”
4.2
The police officer named Xiaolin nodded 4.2:”Okay, Captain!”
The case was reviewed very quickly, and the chain of evidence was sufficient, so the Haiding police sent a joint investigation report to Zhongyuan, and at the same time dispatched three police officers to the location of the suspected target.
The next morning.
Meng Xiaoyao, who was still sleeping soundly, was awakened by a”bang bang” knock on the door.
He climbed out of the bed, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and yawned:”Who is it?”
“Hello, is this Mr. Qin Haoran? Hello, I am here to deliver a package, please open the door”
“Express delivery?”
Qin Haoran was a little confused. He remembered that he hadn’t bought anything online recently. But he didn’t think much about it. He walked to the door lazily and opened it.”Did you send it to the wrong place? I didn’t buy it online….”
Before he could finish his words, Qin Haoran was stunned by the scene in front of him. Before he could escape, the man was caught.
“Search!”…
Soon the search results came out.
After getting the evidence, one of the policemen from Yanjing said to Qin Haoran:”Qin Haoran, we have received a report that you are suspected of pirating a large number of works from many original websites such as a certain website, up to hundreds of thousands of copies, and the circumstances are serious. Now we arrest you according to the law. Please come with us.”
As he said that, he forcibly escorted Qin Haoran into the car without caring about his struggle.
“Thank you for your cooperation. Without you, things wouldn’t have gone so smoothly.”
The police from Yanjing expressed their gratitude.
“You’re welcome. It’s only right to help each other.”
“OK, we will go back to Yanjing first. Thank you for your cooperation.”
“You’re welcome”…….
I love you: Khoatran
