From November 29, 2018, to February 24, 2020, after one year and three months, the main story of I Am the Mastermind Behind the Scenes officially came to an end.
When I typed the three words "The End," I felt down, as if I had lost something important.
Updating I Am the Mastermind Behind the Scenes every day had become part of my life. Although I often wanted to take time off during serialization, once it truly ended, my heart was filled with reluctance.
First, let me talk about this book's results.
During serialization, at its peak, it remained in the top five for daily sales in the games category, top five on the games category monthly ticket rankings, and top one hundred on the overall rankings for a long time.
It received the "Premium" badge on both Qidian and the QQ Reading app.
Such results would not have been possible without the support of every legitimate reader. I would like to offer my sincere thanks here.
Next, let me talk about this book's results after completion. On the main site, Qidian, it accumulated 6,792,442 legitimate subscriptions, with an average of 9,420 subscriptions per chapter (9,420 full subscriptions in total), while the highest chapter reached 32,205 subscriptions.
(Since QQ Reading is a distribution channel, I only know that it achieved Premium status; I do not know the specific subscription figures.)
I originally had high hopes for this book and thought its average subscriptions might surpass ten thousand, but in the end, I still failed. Sigh.
I looked for the reasons behind this. Mainly, I just wasn't good enough, and my mentality wasn't great either. After the results declined, I pushed the plot forward in several abrupt leaps, causing many readers to abandon the story.
