327: These authors who write fan fiction are in trouble

As one of the official accounts with the most fans, posting announcements here allows more players to know about the upcoming plans.

This not only paved the way for future actions but also provided better options for some authors and editors whose contracts were about to expire.

Currently, most fanfiction is created around Aoyou Tianxia Games because their world-building is highly innovative.

These stories definitely possess a unique charm.

“Aoyou Tianxia Game Company is entering the novel industry? That’s a huge leap!”

“This shift is indeed unexpected, but I support it. As a player, I’m very curious to see what kind of novels a game company can write.”

“I heard they were forced to change industries, but I don’t know if it’s true.”

“I heard that too. It seems Shujia Novel Website tried to lower the copyright fees for Aoyou Tianxia’s Dungeon & Fighter, and even wanted to acquire the copyrights for all their games at an even lower price.

This displeased the boss of Aoyou Tianxia, who directly announced he would do it himself.”

“Shujia Novel Website’s appetite is truly massive, it’s outrageous.

Did they think Aoyou Tianxia wouldn’t compete with them in the novel industry?”

“Even if Qi Lu Novel Network is temporarily leading in the novel world, once Aoyou Tianxia enters, it will definitely overshadow the former, because many copyrights now come from Aoyou Tianxia.

Once restricted, Qi Lu Network will be unable to continue creating and will simply wait for death!”

“Support Aoyou Tianxia! We must suppress these ungrateful people and make them understand who is the boss, who can control their life and death.

Don’t think that just because you’ve made money, you can fly to the heavens. Make them remember who allowed them to earn that money!”

“People who think they can go solo after making a bit of money should be suppressed. Let them know who the real big shot is; everything else is not worth mentioning.”

“It’s so amusing to see so many people discussing Qi Lu Network. The circulating rumors all say they were too greedy, earning a lot but still wanting to lower prices. Isn’t that just asking for trouble?”

“I found it strange why Aoyou Tianxia Game Company would open its own novel website. So, it was Qi Lu Network’s own doing. Isn’t that what they deserve? Did they really think becoming number one in the novel industry meant they could do whatever they wanted? Don’t you know how you got to this position?”

“Among the platforms cooperating with Aoyou Tianxia Game Company, I feel that only Wo Live Streaming Platform has some sense, knowing what to do and what not to do, and distinguishing between primary and secondary.”

“You hit the nail on the head. Aoyou Tianxia Game Company’s current reputation is truly unmatched.

You were given an opportunity but didn’t cherish it, instead choosing to cause trouble. Do you think you can become a leader? Do you even know if you have the capability?”

“I’m waiting to see the show, and I’m also looking forward to Aoyou Tianxia’s new novel website. I want to see how it differs from Qi Lu Network.”

“Brothers, everyone understands that Overwatch fanfiction must be followed! Reading novels is my favorite!”

“That’s right, Overwatch fanfiction will definitely be very popular. Many fans love to read it.”

...

As soon as Aoyou Tianxia Game Company posted this Weibo, it immediately attracted a large number of fan comments!

Everyone expressed strong support for Aoyou Tianxia creating its own novel website.

After all, this is Aoyou Tianxia’s territory.

Everyone is a generation that grew up playing games, and with Aoyou Tianxia, the world of games has become much richer.

Now that they are launching a novel website, there will certainly be many novelties, and it wouldn’t be surprising if it even surpasses the current Qi Lu Network.

Meanwhile, at Qi Lu Network, after seeing Aoyou Tianxia’s latest Weibo, the entire company panicked.

It should be known that Aoyou Tianxia has a very big reputation in the business world, and it also has a powerful tool like Aoyou Communication.

If their novel website goes online, it will definitely siphon off a large amount of traffic.

At that time, Qi Lu Network will definitely fall from its peak into the valley.

Qi Lu Network was very clear about this.

“We are willing to offer one billion and go talk to Aoyou Tianxia again, striving to buy the copyrights of their games,” the founder of Qi Lu Network said wearily to the Head of Operations next to him.

Currently, it seems that if Aoyou Tianxia is not stopped soon, the former glory of Qi Lu Network might be gone forever.

Let alone making money, once Aoyou’s novel website goes online, Qi Lu Network would be lucky not to lose money.

A few minutes later, the Head of Operations returned to the founder, his face pale.

The founder of Qi Lu Network knew then that it was hopeless.

Even increasing the price to two billion was useless.

A wrong path is a wrong path.

He waved his hand, dismissing the Head of Operations, because he already knew the outcome.

The news of Aoyou Tianxia entering the novel industry spread across the country, and many people didn’t understand why a game company would suddenly venture into the novel field.

Some even wanted to follow Aoyou Tianxia into the novel market.

However, some authors from Qi Lu Network had different ideas.

Many authors who heard this news had already begun to consider changing platforms.

After all, they had earned a lot of money at Qi Lu Network and had many fans, but if Aoyou Tianxia reclaimed the copyrights, these fanfiction authors would be in trouble.

Without the Dungeon & Fighter copyright, they would not be able to continue writing.

For many authors, this was like cutting off their livelihood.

They had finally found a way to make money, only for it to be cut off again.

Therefore, many authors planned to switch to Aoyou’s novel website.

Although Aoyou Novel Network was still in preparation, this undoubtedly gave many authors a sense of future security.

They no longer had to worry about copyright issues, because the copyrights were all in Aoyou’s hands.

Joining Aoyou Novel Network would not only allow them to continue writing Dungeon & Fighter fanfiction but also fanfiction for other games.

For many authors, this was the best of both worlds.

After all, Aoyou Tianxia has so many fun games with rich storylines, and they could even directly borrow the game backgrounds and freely create.

At this moment, in the group chat created by Qi Lu Network authors, many people were already complaining.

“Is anyone planning to go to Aoyou Novel Network with me? I really don’t want to stay at Qi Lu Network for another moment!”

“My fanfiction just became popular, but with Qi Lu Network doing this, I’ve directly stopped updating.

Without copyright support, how can I update? It’s so frustrating!”

“My contract with Qi Lu Novel Network also expired. Luckily, I heard some news yesterday, otherwise I would have signed with them again and would have gotten sick from anger!”

“I renewed my contract with Qi Lu Novel Network yesterday, but I’m not panicking at all.

It’s just an account, isn’t it? I’ll just change my name and keep writing, it’s no big deal.

Anyway, I don’t plan to stay at Qi Lu Novel Network anymore. Doing such a stupid thing is truly speechless.”

“This is simply too foolish.

Who is the big funder, who cannot be offended? Don’t the higher-ups at Qi Lu Novel Network understand?”
