唐家三少再登网络作家收入榜榜首
唐家三少再登网络作家收入榜榜首

Online writer Tangjiasanshao, or Zhang Wei, took the crown again on the latest income ranking list of Chinese online writers.
Receiving 122 million yuan ($18 million) in royalties, the writer comes in at first place for the fourth time. Born in 1981, Zhang once worked for a small IT company after graduating from Hebei University. He got fired by the company in 2003. In 2004, Zhang started writing his first online novel, Guang Zhi Zi, or Child of Light. In 2012, the young writer was crowned on the royalty(版税) ranking list for the first time.
Many web writers, such as Tiancantudou (Li Hu) and Wochixihongshi (Zhu Hongzhi) also rose to fame because of their work and royalty. A series of popular TV series, animations and games have been adapted(改编) from their writings, including Nirvana in Fire and The Journey of Flower.
However, not every online writer is as lucky as them. Most online writers work 10 hours a day according to a report from Yangtze Evening. And they must always be working hard to create attracting stories.
Angeloscar from Nanjing began to write for the web as a part-time job in 2006. And he gave up his stable job to write full time from 2015. "Many people believe online writers are messy and sloppy, and some even think we wear costumes when writing stories about ancient people. We are not. At least I am not," Angeloscar said. As a father, the writer has a regular life. And he also spends at least 10 hours writing each day. "It’s easy to become an online writer, but not that easy to become famous. I advise people to start part-time writing first," he said. “And only especially skilled writers could write for large Internet literature websites.”
