    its nice to see our friends overseas are able to see the full picture. except for that 1 person who seems to think tencent has a chance of profiting from this "if handled well" (too late for that)

    I'm still wondering what the end result of all this will be like. Will there still be a WW? Will we still have Qidan? And most importantly what about the novels and the translators? Find out the answer to these and more next time on Dragon bal~ whoops wrong franchise :coffee:

    there will still be both, but the fallout will have damaged both sides.

    practically every major war that the USA has gotten involved with, but regarding literature instead of war

    WW has got the licenses for those 1st 20, so those are safe, it's just a matter of the new ones being added or not. It just means we will see more novels from 17k in the future than from Qidian. since Qidian plans to attack anyone who dares translate their stuff without becoming their slave first.

    Seriously Qidian didn't shoot themselves in the foot with this move, they blew the entire leg off... I just don't get it, it's sooo... Stupid for lack of a better word, especially the whole beggin for support from a community that still sees them as the newcomer...

    I personally still hope that Qidian gets their act together, and sees the light, I don't believe they will, but I hope so.
    With that said though, at worst Qidian is destroying their future international market, they have literally handed the torch to their competitors, almost begging them to take in the now abused WW... So yeah good going Qidian, you recked yourself.

    To be more precise, they are a company that owns all of the webnovel companies that Tencent owns.

    It's good to know how the Chinese reacted. I honestly thought that they would be indifferent and contemptuous. Glad to be proven wrong. Thanks Selutu.
