Chapter 38: Luring them in and then killing them – a consensus reached without prior agreement!
For example, in "The Return of the Condor Heroes," Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu parted ways at Broken Heart Cliff and reunited sixteen years later.
Guo Xiang's lifelong obsession with Yang Guo began at first sight.
True classics are never about a smooth ride to the end, but about a journey filled with loss and regret, yet still clinging to a glimmer of light amidst the ruins.
The readers of this world have long been spoiled by mindless, feel-good novels.
Now it's time to give them a little shock that can be described as "healing"!
Xia Mi, Erii, Old Tang...
These names, these stories, these scenes that still make his heart ache when he thinks about them now.
When they are presented to the world one by one.
He eagerly anticipates the day when readers collectively break down in their defenses.
Live Stream Room——
Haven't you ever witnessed true heartbreak?
[This... I feel like there's more to it than meets the eye!]
Work is so tiring, what's wrong with wanting to relax by reading some lighthearted novels?
I have a bad feeling about this!
……
The photographer stood to the side, barely daring to breathe.
He finally understood that the person in front of him was not a novelist at all.
It's as if the author is holding a pen and cutting the reader's heart, one cut at a time.
Those who were cut all over their bodies cried and still begged for the next cut.
Ye Zhou withdrew his gaze, casually picked up the thermos cup beside him, and slowly took a sip.
Meanwhile, system notifications continued to flood my mind:
[Reader's frustration +333!]
[A reader's exasperation +555!]
[A love-hate relationship from readers +999!]
……
The emotional value soared, steadily breaking through the 100,000 mark, and is still climbing higher.
At the company headquarters, the large screen in the data monitoring room is flashing wildly.
Operations Director Zhang Lei stared at the backend data, his fingers flying across the desktop, his expression gradually turning serious from its initial calm.
Several engineers nearby were frantically typing on their keyboards.
Just now, the server almost crashed.
The incident began when the data for a new book suddenly skyrocketed, causing an uproar in the comments section.
Most importantly, a number of people registered new reading accounts at the same time.
"Director Zhang, Dragon Raja... has become a hit again."
A technician swallowed hard, his voice trembling: "The number of favorites, readers following the story, requests for updates, and comments has all skyrocketed! We've already broken into the top three on the entire site!"
Zhang Lei stared at the ridiculously exaggerated data on the screen, his pupils slightly contracting.
He has been in the online literature operations industry for over a decade and has seen many wildly popular books, but he has never seen anything so bizarre.
The reader cried, cursed, and shouted that he would send razor blades.
Yet the data is better than any online novel.
"This book is really weird... the comment section is flooded!"
Someone nearby muttered quietly, "How come it's getting more and more popular?"
"..."
Zhang Lei's eyes flickered, but he remained silent.
Unlike other operations directors, he started as an author, working his way up from the bottom as an editor before finally reaching the position of operations director.
Others only see that "Dragon Raja" is about torturing the protagonist, writer's block, and keeping readers in suspense.
Only he saw through the essence of this book at a glance.
This book is not a wish-fulfillment story, but rather a story hidden in the youth of every ordinary person—
The humble, cowardly, unloved, and unseen self.
The harsher the readers' criticism, the more they cried.
This precisely demonstrates that these words struck the softest, most untouchable part of their hearts.
Following the updates on Cola Novels has never been so enjoyable.
Zhang Lei had never heard of this writing style before.
"It's not that the book is strangely popular."
Zhang Lei spoke slowly, his voice low: "He wrote it. It's a truth that we've all experienced, but no one dared to write about."
"Director Zhang, could we replicate this style and have our writers immediately start writing a few novels in the same genre to test the waters?"
One of the operations team members suggested with a keen eye.
"Cannot be copied."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Lei shook his head slightly and said, "This requires a very high level of skill and writing ability from the author."
Everyone remained silent.
"Stop thinking about copying or not..."
Zhang Lei took a deep breath and suddenly asked, "Is it confirmed? Is he Ye Zhou, the guy who's been making headlines these past few days?!"
Ye Zhou has become incredibly popular online these past few days, frequently trending on social media, more so than several top celebrities combined.
As the operations director, Zhang Lei naturally couldn't possibly be unaware of the other party.
When he first heard the author's name Ye Zhou, he was puzzled, thinking that new authors these days were too bold!
They're even trying to ride on the other person's coattails!
"Checked, checked, the identity information matches..."
The operations manager next to him immediately nodded, his voice tinged with resentment: "I even checked the live stream, it's definitely him!"
"It really is that Ye Zhou!"
Zhang Lei's face lit up with ecstasy: "In that case, it's no wonder this book was so popular in its early stages."
It's important to know that Ye Zhou is now synonymous with online traffic.
Anything he does can trend on social media, let alone writing a novel himself, especially a phenomenal work like "Dragon Raja".
It is no exaggeration to say that Ye Zhou alone saved Dianyue millions or even tens of millions of yuan in advertising costs.
This is evident from the constant influx of new readers.
The entire office fell silent instantly, and everyone gasped.
Others write articles by following formulas, copying trends, or trying to grab attention.
Ye Zhou truly lived his life as a story, and then casually wrote it down.
"This guy isn't here to write web novels at all."
"He's here to use a 'dimensional reduction attack'."
Zhang Lei gave a wry smile, then said decisively, "Immediately give me all the featured spots. We have an obligation to let more people see such a deeply moving work!"
Half an hour later, a huge banner recommending the novel quietly appeared on the homepage of Dianyue Novel Network and was pushed to the entire network.
[Highly Recommended: Ye Zhou's Crossover Masterpiece "Dragon Raja"! The Rise of a Lonely Boy!]
The recommendation copy was written with such ease and fluency.
Dianyue's operations team used the same marketing approach as Ye Zhou: lure readers in first and then do the rest!
The large pit was not mentioned at all.
Meanwhile, longtime readers of "Dragon Raja" are enthusiastically recommending it on various platforms, calling it "the most exciting novel of the year," "a dark horse masterpiece," and "you'll regret it if you don't read it."
This kind of pain, this heart-wrenching feeling, absolutely cannot be borne by them alone.
As the saying goes, it's better to share joy than to enjoy it alone, and better to suffer alone than to suffer together!
New readers, lured in by the homepage recommendations and positive reviews, might think they've stumbled upon a mindless, easy-to-read, revenge-driven novel.
They clicked on it excitedly, but after reading it, they all froze on the spot.
Frustration, heartache, helplessness...
Emotions are stuck in my chest, unable to go up or down.
Then they all praised the book.
As word spread, the already explosive popularity of "Dragon Raja" was met with a second surge.
Countless people who didn't read novels before clicked on the link because of the name "Ye Zhou"; countless readers who were looking for something to read also embarked on this path of no return out of curiosity.
