Chapter 152: Author's Note on Going Paid

Author's Note on Going Paid

By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees:

The Mightiest Chongzhen goes live for paid chapters at noon tomorrow. Besides the regular morning update at eight, the second chapter will be posted at noon; remaining update times will be mentioned in the chapter notes. Stone has no backlog, but will do his utmost.

Actually, most of what needs saying was already said in the Sanjiang interview earlier, but let me stress a few points here.

First, the Mightiest Chongzhen reader group is waving to all my ministers: 4.8.9.9.5.3.1.4.8.

Next, I earnestly beg all my ministers for your subscription support. To be honest, I have no idea how the numbers will turn out. The old cliché still holds — "First-day subscriptions determine the book's length and quality."

This is easy to understand. If first-day subscriptions are good, all kinds of follow-up recommendations will come pouring in, and Stone will have plenty of motivation to write, able to consider the plot from every angle and put more energy into the book.

If first-day subscriptions are poor, then there's nothing to say — Stone's ability just isn't up to par, and no one else is to blame. After all, force-grown melons aren't sweet.

Subscribe! Subscribe! Subscribe!

Important things are said three times. The road has been bumpy — I've been first and I've been last — yet The Mightiest Chongzhen has stumbled its way past twenty thousand collections to go paid. How it ultimately performs still depends on all of you.

A side note: those mischief-making author friends in the history group are all watching The Mightiest Chongzhen. Give me a little face so I can show off, won't you? Haha.

Thus decreed.
