Chapter 133 Benefits

I don’t dare to title this sentiment as ‘please subscribe’ anymore, since people just skip directly past such titles. So I had no choice but to do some clickbaiting, otherwise I simply can’t sleep, and my head hurts…

Statement: There are no benefits in this chapter, I just want to talk about the current status of this book. (Probably a bunch of people will be too lazy to listen to me go on and will just click to the next chapter)

This book has 21,000 collections, with a fixed daily increase of about 80 collections, but the average daily auto-subscribe count drops by about 2 every day. At present, daily subscriptions are only around 800, a three-digit number. The collection-to-subscription ratio is 30:1, and the monthly subscription manuscript fee is about 1,750, or even less. It’s hard to even afford a meal.

I update with two fixed chapters every day without missing a single day, never asked for leave, and even added extra chapters when I should. But the longer the collection gets, the fewer the subscriptions become, and the collection-to-subscription ratio keeps shrinking. This stunning operation of wild collection growth and collapsing subscriptions makes my scalp tingle.

As for all other achievements of this book except for subscriptions, I’m very satisfied. But just subscriptions alone could trap a person.

Considering I never did anti-piracy, at the very least let me have enough to eat, right? I’m really just complaining here, but honestly, I truly am miserable. Getting only 1,750 in subscription manuscript fees for these results feels almost like total detachment. Collections, recommendation tickets, monthly tickets—every other metric is fine, but when it comes to subscriptions, I just have no fight left in me.

So, those of you reading pirated versions, if you’re happy reading it, please come to Ki Dian and chip in a subscription. If you’re not happy, it’s purely because pirated sites have too many ads. And for those of you who are just hoarding the chapters, I’m not asking you to check in every day—just turn on auto-subscribe, seriously.

But if you want to comfort me, telling me you’re fully subscribed and such, and you don’t even have a trial badge—let’s be honest, you’re here for the free chapters. I understand, but please don’t comfort me with claims of being fully subscribed. I honestly don’t know how to respond to that…

The official (zheng ban) version is at ‘Ki Dian Chinese web’, or if you pay through another channel, that’s officially licensed too. If you can, please come support ‘Ki Dian’ for real.

That’s all I have to say. I haven’t used anti-piracy, so let’s all save a bit of face. And some erroneous plot points in pirated versions happen because piracy sites don’t steal subsequent, revised chapters, and there are tons of typos in pirated copies. I’ve corrected almost all the typos in the official (zheng ban) version—you can barely spot any left.

Also, for those who use an ‘out-of-order chapter’ as an excuse to go read pirated versions—seriously, stop. I’ve posted any missing chapters in the group. You can join freely; the group info is right there in the synopsis.

That’s all I’ll say—for someone trying to afford a meal, I hope you can all understand.

ps: Most pirated (dao ban) sites will block this chapter—no one else would do something like this. Profiting from my fans but not letting me recruit more just to feed myself—I’m truly at my limit…

ps: For official (zheng ban) readers who genuinely pity me and want to tip, don’t bother. This chapter is for the pirated (dao ban) readers, and a little tip does nothing for me. What I need is subscriptions.

Thank you to all official (zheng ban) readers for your support! Thank you to all voters for your support! And thank you to every reader who has ever supported me, even if it was just a little!
