The Eunuch is Pregnant: Chapter 196

To my dear readers,

This message is for zoeroxie. Thank you so much for enjoying my translations. I see all your comments. I’ve noticed that you’ve been continuously asking me to translate “Hidden Marriage” (at least 3 times on separate chapters). I have replied multiple times to you but I don’t think you actually see the responses (Or else you wouldn’t keep asking).

1. Timebun dropped Hidden Marriage because it is a Qidian novel. Qidian has the rights to the novels and it is being translated by their own translators.

2. There are already 1000 chapters released. You can read it https://www.novelupdates.com/series/hidden-marriage/

3. The reason why Qidian is able to release so quickly is because they’re paying their translators per chapter. For example, $30 or $40 USD per chapter.

4. Please do not ask me to translate anything else unless you’re willing to hire me. I don’t get paid for my time (I’ve already voluntarily spent 500 hours on The Eunuch is Pregnant). I do get donations, pledges and ad revenue, but after you factor in how much time I spend on it, after a year later, it’s like $2 an hour (that’s not even enough to take the bus).

Would you translate 1000+ words if it takes you 3 hours and you might potentially get $6 after accumulating for a year? (nothing is guaranteed)

When you’re super motivated at the beginning, it’s easy because you feel like you’re unstoppable. However, I assure you…it takes a lot of willpower just to get to 100 chapters.

5. Don’t worry, I still plan on finishing what I started. It just takes a long time because I really lack brain cells and translating is very hard. I also have to edit the Chinese raws, so it takes forever.

6. If you want to pay for my time to translate your favourite stories, then by all means, email me privately at [email protected]

The chapter will be released later tonight. I still have to edit it. Thanks for reading and thank you for all the support. Please consider clicking one ad if you appreciates all my efforts.
