Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 309: We’re going to launch, let’s talk to everyone!

Yes, it’s time to put it on the shelves, at noon, 12 p.m.

What does it mean to go on the shelves? It means charging a fee, it means everyone has to spend money to read.

Before I say more, let me do some quick math for everyone.

One chapter, two thousand words, ten cents per thousand words, which means one chapter costs ten cents. I update ten chapters a day, which is one dollar, amounting to at most thirty dollars a month.

But… maintaining ten chapters a day, I definitely won’t be able to keep up with that.

Assuming four or five chapters a day, for an entire month, everyone enjoys a good read, a thrilling read, and only spends about ten dollars.

...

All the effort I put into a whole month of work, wracking my brains, pouring out my heart and soul, and it only costs everyone ten dollars. How much is that?

Life isn’t the same as before; if everyone buys one less pack of cigarettes or drinks one less bottle of alcohol, ten dollars can be easily found, right?

And for that ten dollars, I have to put forth so much effort, sometimes truly to the point of losing my appetite, not wanting to eat, not being able to sleep at night!

Being an author is not easy, really.

I’m married now, with a wife and kids, and I have to provide for my family.

When it was free, my wife constantly complained that I was always working or writing when not at work, leaving no time to spend with her.

Sometimes, I would get furious, but after giving it some thought, her complaints do hold some truth.

When I wasn’t writing books, I would spend my rest days with her, relaxing and having fun, but since I started writing… I truly have no time anymore, I can’t even accompany her to sleep because I have to write. By the time I finish, it’s late at night, and sometimes, during an outburst, I might not sleep all night.

My wife worries about me, my parents worry about me, even my child feels sorry for me, always saying, “Daddy, stop writing, you’re too tired.”

Sometimes, I’ve thought about giving up, but what would you all do if I did? What about those brothers and sisters who have always supported me?

Since I started writing, I’ve had no less than ten arguments with my family in three or four months, whereas before, we would not have had even one in a year.

But I’ve persisted!

Because I cannot let you all down!

These are words I never wanted to say, but in order to achieve good results, I have no choice but to speak up.

If the subscription for “Ancient Demon Dragon Emperor” can compete with the salary from my day job, I would quit and stop dealing with the boss’s annoyances, which I’ve had enough of!

Then I would have time to write more, update more, and give back more to everyone!

Ten dollars a month is really not a lot.

I hope you all can support me, really.

There was even a time when my wife suggested divorce and I felt like the sky was falling. Over such a trivial matter, is it worth it?

And that time was exactly when there were only two updates a day. We were in a cold war for several days, and I kept saying I was busy but never told you all what was happening. Now, I can tell you, it was because of that.

No more nonsense, today I’ll burst out with ten chapters, and I’ll keep bursting out tomorrow, and the day after…

As long as subscriptions continue, the burst of chapters won’t stop. I hope everyone can support me.

For those brothers and sisters who left because of the fee, I will always remember you, but sadly, you won’t be rejoining the big family of Demon Dragon again…

Every time I think of this, I get the urge to cry.

After all, we’ve been through so many days and nights together, and when it’s time for “Ancient Demon Dragon Emperor” to show its achievements, you left.

It’s really regrettable. I truly don’t want you to leave; I hope you can stay, accompany me, accompany Demon Dragon, accompany Su Han, and witness the moment “Ancient Demon Dragon Emperor” reaches the Peak!

At noon, 12 p.m., I’ll be waiting for you, waiting for the brothers and sisters of the Ancient Demon Dragon Emperor family to gather together and help “Ancient Demon Dragon Emperor”… reach the Peak!
