Since 1983

In 1991, North American students founded the first Chinese electronic weekly "Huaxia Digest", among which "Struggle and Equality" was the first novel published on the Internet.

But it is only in the sense of media, not a conceptual network novel.

In 1992, Indiana University in the United States established the world's first Chinese news discussion group ACT, and Chinese netizens, mainly foreign students, manually entered works such as Jin Yong and Gu Long.

In 1994, Fang Zhouzi, who often hangs out in ACT, founded the first Chinese online publication "New Threads".

In 1997, Rosen serialized "The Story of Charm". At the end of the same year, the personal homepage of "Under the Banyan Tree" was established.

In March 1998, ruffian Cai serialized "The First Close Contact" on the BBS.

As for this website, ahem, it is this website, formerly known as the Fantasy Literature Association, it is said that it was chatted in a chat room...

In short, Intimate Contact is not the first online novel, but it has a great influence.

After it appeared on the Internet, it was quickly reprinted by various BBS. In the same year, a physical book was published in Taiwan, and in 1999, a physical book was also published in mainland China.

Sohu also reposted it, and the already huge base hits soared in an instant, and there were countless discussion posts:

"After reading it in one go, the phone bill this month has exploded!"

"Mom is already beating me!"

"Hahaha, I have changed my name to Qingwu Feiyang!"

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo".

"Even if you pour out the water in the entire bathtub, it won't extinguish the fire of my love for you. Can you pour out all the water in the bathtub?

Can.

So yes, I love you. "

One of them stands out:

"Dancing with ink has been conducted for three online essay competitions. With all due respect, none of them meet the definition of 'Internet literature'. The author just moved the words written on paper to the keyboard, and the content and style are still traditional literature.

And "First Intimate Contact" made me understand what Internet literature should look like.

I'm not criticizing maliciously, I just hope that the online essay solicitation will be better and better. "

A group of programmers didn't respond. Tang Jian, who was in charge of content operations, was shocked and hurriedly consulted with Zhang Fox.

"I think the online literature society is a huge area. Before, netizens didn't know how to write, but now they come in close contact with each other, and a group of authors will definitely emerge.

We should win over. "

"But what do you want to do? Ask them to write novels, we help publish them, and make money from this?" Zhang Fox asked.

"Well……"

Tang Jian also hesitated, he only had a preliminary inspiration, and he was a little confused about what to do next. And Zhang Huhu didn't care too much, he stopped talking for a while, and searched for information on the Internet.

In 1998 there were already some personal book sites.

For example, Golden Bookstore, and Sangsang Academy, which was the first to open the category of "Danmei". These book sites still focus on martial arts novels by Jin Yong, Gulong Huang Yi, and "The Legend of Double Dragons in the Tang Dynasty" was a hit at the time.

In 1999, under the banyan tree changed from a personal bookstore to a company operation; in the same year, Hongxiu Tianxiang was established.

Tang Jian searched for a long time and became more and more confused. He instinctively felt that this was a big cake, but how to develop value?

"Hello, Mr. Xu?"

"Old Tang, what's the matter?"

"Uh, I want to ask..."

As soon as he said that, he smiled and said: "How about this, the media will fund and build a small book site first, and you will be responsible for maintaining it, and make a link on the BBS, which is considered a friendly site.

At present, the forum is still dominated by dance essays and ink, and the solicitation of essays will continue, but more efforts must be made to attract authors. "

"Then when will it be developed?"

"Wait until the base number comes up, there are too few people now.

At that time, the book site will be turned into an online literature position, signed authors, paid subscriptions, master creators push platinum, thousands of masterpieces, IP adaptation one-stop one-stop fun! "

Hiss!

Tang Jian was fascinated leisurely, excited by the prosperous age, and finally asked: "What's the name of the bookstore?"

"Of course it's called... Let's call it Tianxia Bookstore!"

...

South, a certain city.

A woman in her early twenties was sitting in front of the computer, watching "First Intimate Contact" over and over again on the monitor. She sat there for a moment, typed the text of the first online novel in her life, and gave herself a pseudonym:

"Baby Annie."

...

An internet company.

A man with the name "Li Xunhuan" finished chatting with netizens contentedly, and then looked at Wu Wenrong's top post.

That was the reward for the adjusted third call for papers.

Crackling, crackling.

...

A drug-addicted man who made his fortune by speculating in stocks and lost his fortune also watched this "First Intimate Contact".

Then he shrugged his shoulders, clicked on the film and television section, and started the n times a day "About the casting of "Dragon Ba Bu"" Netizens spat.

Oh, he is still a bamboo.

………………

"First Intimate Contact" is just a small episode, and it is enough to build a bookstore first.

The media group that Xu Fei wants to build includes film and television, magazines, online literature, advertisements, event performances, TV program production, cultural creation, etc., a very large industrial chain.

Ideas are in his head and need talents to realize.

There are self-cultivated ones, such as Tang Jian; there are real-life NPCs, such as Long Danni. He collected as much as he could, and was very sincere to everyone. Recently, he re-focused on Wang Changtian.

Historically, he suspended his job for self-reflection and wanted to go to Phoenix Satellite TV. I contacted him a few times, but he ignored me and resigned. I raised 100,000 yuan to set up a TV program planning and research center.

That is, the later Light Media.

But at this moment, Phoenix Satellite TV still ignored him. He was thinking of resigning and starting a business, but he was very timid. You said that you are engaged in TV program planning, who the hell is better than the world?

Like cannon fodder.

So when Xu Fei extended an olive branch again, Wang Changtian reluctantly agreed and became the department manager.

Boss Xu was very happy to win a general, and soon there was even more exciting news:

Also in June, the central government decided to stop implementing the welfare housing allocation policy of more than 40 years and promote the monetization of housing allocation until the end of June.

Ever since, in order to allocate housing before the deadline, the work unit actually started to rush to buy housing, causing delays in various places.

There are two reasons:

One is that there is a big lump of welfare housing distribution, and it is difficult for the real estate market to catch fire. By the end of October last year, the cumulative area of ​​vacant commercial housing across the country reached 49.04 million square meters.

The second is the Asian financial turmoil.

Prior to this, domestic monetary policy was tightened and loans were restricted. Now in order to stimulate economic growth, it is decided to expand domestic demand, education, medical care, real estate and automobiles.

After 10 years of housing reform, it has officially entered a new stage of "marketization of construction" and "monetization of consumption". Banks let go of loans, and the real estate alone has approved 100 billion!

What do you mean?

It means that the Pandora's box of China's real estate has opened!

But Xu Fei was very happy, and Zhang Li was even more happy. Their major repairs and construction were all borrowed money. In the past two years, we have developed conservatively and tried our best to ensure cash flow, but we still need to spend a lot of money to acquire land in the capital and expand the film and television city.

Now it's all right, Mr. Zhang's central villa area and Chaoyang CBD are just around the corner.

(The author thought about it for a while and coded another chapter, and now it's really gone.)
