The main reason why novels were free to serialize and then charged was because novel platforms usually adopted different charging models to adapt to the needs of readers and the platform's business strategy. The free serial mode usually meant that readers who were free during the serial period could read and share the novel on the platform, but they were not allowed to buy it. The main purpose of this model was to attract more readers and increase the number of users and activity of the platform. Through the free serial novel platform, it could attract more potential readers, increase brand awareness, and build a reader base for the subsequent release of paid content. The fee-based model meant that after the novel was published on the platform, readers had to pay a certain fee to buy the physical or digital version of the novel. The main purpose of this model was to obtain higher income and provide a sustainable business model for the platform. Some novels were free during the serial period, but different strategies might be adopted when the paid content was released later, such as increasing the number of paid chapters, increasing the price of chapters, and introducing a paid reading model to attract more readers and increase revenue. Therefore, it was a balanced choice between the business strategy of the novel platform and the needs of the readers to serialize the novel for free and then charge for it.

Penguin QQ was an online reading platform that provided free novel reading services. However, some free novels had some problems in terms of payment. The free novels on Penguin QQ were often referred to as " free trial reading " or " free chapters." The readers could read these chapters, but if the readers had signed up to the platform's paid service, they could read all the chapters for free. However, some of the free novels still require a "golden bean" as a fee for the sub-chapters. This is because these novels are displayed on the platform as "free chapters" and not as complete chapters provided by the paid service. Therefore, readers needed to choose a free novel in Penguin QQ and read the free chapters to understand the payment situation of the novel. If the reader had signed up for the platform's paid service, they could read all the novels without paying any additional fees.

Why did he charge for reading novels?

It was very common for novels to be charged because novels usually existed as literary works and needed copyright protection. The author had to pay the copyright owner (usually a publishing company or online platform) to display his novel in front of the readers. In addition, the publication and distribution of novels usually required payment for printing, distribution, publicity, and other expenses, so the price of novels was relatively high. Online platforms might also need to pay authors a certain fee to ensure that the novels on their platforms could be read by more readers. Although some novels are free, there are usually free trial versions online. The readers can check the content and decide whether to continue reading. However, if one wanted to understand the plot and characters of the novel in depth or wanted to read the entire novel, then charging a fee was usually inevitable.
