Thinking about it, something was wrong!
"Hey, what's going on? Didn't you say that you were out of stock?”
Chen Zhengyu turned around and asked the cashier.
"Handsome, it's like this. There's only one movie left. They're planning to buy it ~"
"Oh ~"
Chen Zhengyu rolled his eyes and took two steps forward.
"Beauty, have you ever thought about what he's going to eat tomorrow after he bought you this phone?”
"How much is your monthly living expenses?”
Chen Zhengyu sized up the girl. Her clothes were all student clothes, common goods. Her family background was probably normal.
His looks were 6 points, which was passable. However, his figure was a little too curvy.
The top was ordinary, but the bottom was dry and shriveled. Forget it…
After quickly sizing him up, Chen Zhengyu said,""I estimate that your monthly living expenses are no more than 1000 yuan. This phone is 5888 yuan, six months 'living expenses.”
"Are you willing to spend half a year's living expenses to buy one for this brother?”
The girl was a little confused and didn't know how to answer.
"Alright, let's not dwell on this for now. This brother bought you a phone and won't have money to eat for the next few months. Are you willing to support him?”
The girl mumbled, her face quickly turning red as she felt a burning sensation.
"You…"
"Humph!"
The girl opened her mouth to retort, but in the end, she didn't say anything and stomped away.
That boy was glaring at Chen Zhengyu with an unfriendly gaze, as if saying, who the hell are you?
Chen Zhengyu grinned and patted the other party's shoulder without any hesitation.
"Brother, don't be in a hurry to be angry. Think about it yourself. Is it worth it? You heard what I said just now. You've seen her performance.”
" As long as she stubbornly says something, say that she'll support you or express her guilt, it'll prove that she cares about you…"
The boy's expression gradually changed. His eyes flickered, but he did not say a word.
Chen Zhengyu said earnestly,
"Brother, this isn't worth it ~~~ bootlicker, nothing at all…"
"F * ck! Who are you scolding?"
The boy was furious, and his face was a little embarrassed.
Chen Zhengyu chuckled but did not say anything else. That was all he could say.
If it wasn't for the fact that his phone was out of stock and he didn't want to make another trip, he wouldn't have cared so much.
A creature like a bootlicker had a very tenacious vitality. It also paid attention to enlightenment. Otherwise, no matter how much others said, it was actually useless.
The boy mumbled again and turned to leave.
"Alright, that 32g white one, pack it up for me too!”
The cashier was also impressed by Chen Zhengyu's actions.
She did not expect that this handsome man in front of her was not only rich, but also quite good at fooling people.
"Hello, the headphones are 280 yuan, the laptop is 17500 yuan, 4 fruits, white 32g, 5888 yuan, a total of 23668 yuan.”
Chen Zhengyu nodded and handed over his bank card.
"Alright, swipe the card!"
In this card, there were more than 370,000 yuan from July's royalties.
At this moment, the cashier asked kindly.
"Handsome, do you need anything else? For example, a laptop bag, a mouse…"
"F * ck!"
Chen Zhengyu glanced at her and nodded.
He had almost forgotten about this. Many fruit products were not free. If he wanted them, he had to buy them!
Yeah, it was quite f * cking.
However, in the future, there would be even more flashy operations. Under the banner of environmental protection, they would not give away a charger.
If he wanted it, he had to buy it!
He was so spicy…
He took the laptop bag, mouse pad, and mouse. Chen Zhengyu thought about it and felt that there shouldn't be anything else.
The bill was re-paid. It was a total of 24000 yuan. He swiped the card!
He didn't take the packaging box, instruction manual, or anything else. He just put it in his laptop bag and left with it on his back.
It was simple and convenient. Men should be like this and not care about these worldly possessions. After leaving the fruit flagship store,
Chen Zhengyu took the elevator again and went up to the third floor. This place was filled with men's clothing from all the major brands.
Basically, there were well-known domestic and foreign brands, as well as some niche luxury brands, which could be found here.
He didn't shop around and went straight to a shop that had a brand he liked in his previous life.
In his previous life, his income was not low, and he had to wander around and play around. He definitely had to pay attention to his taste in clothes.
Otherwise, when the pretty girls saw what they were wearing, lowb~~~
How could they develop further and play around?
Therefore, he knew a little about this and had some experience.
CK had several series, and each series had its own unique and outstanding aspects.
This brand had a low-key yet luxurious style. It was reserved yet flamboyant. Chen Zhengyu had always liked it.
Half an hour later.
He carried a few paper bags and walked out.
He bought a shirt, a pair of casual pants, a pair of underwear, and a pair of socks. He spent a total of 2560 yuan.
Chen Zhengyu only wore a set of clothes when he went out this time. He didn't even have a change of clothes.
It would be fine for the next two days. It wouldn't be too late to buy other things after he had settled the deal with the publishing firm. It was quite troublesome to carry a computer bag.
He took a taxi back to the hotel.
……
When they reached the hotel, they went back to their room to put down their things.
First, he called the service desk and asked for laundry service. He handed the newly bought clothes to the service staff to wash them.
Then, he took out his SIM card and changed into a new phone.
Yes!
It was so f * cking comfortable. This feeling, this smoothness, this smoothness…
Chen Zhengyu smacked his lips twice. He was in a particularly good mood. He had finally regained some of the feelings of his previous life.
He downloaded a fruit-cutting game.
"Shua ~"
How many years had it been since I last played? F * ck, it actually felt fun…
Chen Zhengyu was having a great time. After playing for a while, he looked at the time.
It was almost six o'clock, and she remembered that she still had dinner with the chief editor and editor.
Chen Zhengyu simply washed his face and looked at Mobile QQ.
Nuannuan was already asking if it was done.
He replied," Alright, see you in the lobby."
When they reached the lobby, Lady Hua and Nuannuan were already waiting for them. He didn't go out to find a restaurant. Instead, he asked for a private room in the hotel restaurant.
Lord Hua asked Chen Zhengyu if there was anything he didn't eat.
Chen Zhengyu smiled and said no. He could eat both grass and meat. He was not picky and was very easy to raise.
Nuannuan giggled.
The pretty girl's smile was quite pleasing to the eyes. Chen Zhengyu couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Lady Hua ordered a few signature dishes of the hotel and a bottle of red wine.
The three of them chatted as they ate. The main purpose of this meal was to discuss the matter of publishing in depth.
Both parties would first decide on the royalty ratio that they could roughly accept, or rather, the conditions.
After all, this matter concerned the benefits of both parties. It was better to be cautious.
It was mainly Lord Hua who spoke, while Nuannuan explained from the side. Although she was the editor, she knew a little about these things.
Chen Zhengyu listened very seriously.
According to Lord Hua, it was ideal to get a royalty ratio of 7%. It would be very difficult to get any higher. After all, these publishing houses were not doing charity.
However, Chen Zhengyu did some calculations in his heart. If a book costs 20 yuan per unit, 100,000 copies are sold, and the royalty is 7%.
Then, the final profit would be 140000. If he split it 50 - 50 with the website, he would get 70000.
After selling 1 million copies, his profit was only 700,000.
It felt ordinary…
Chen Zhengyu asked," Boss, can't you go higher?”
Lord Hua smiled bitterly. He also wanted a higher price. It would be best if it was 15%. That way, not only would he be promoted, but he would also get a raise.
"Zhengyu, publishing a novel has a certain element of gambling. The publishing firm is not stupid. If the ratio is too high, it will be fine if we make a profit, but if we lose in the end, then there's nothing to say.”...
"Besides, this book isn't finished yet. I don't know how the whole book will turn out. For example, whether the follow-up plot and the strength of the pen could still maintain the same quality as the ones that had been published so far. These were all risks, and the publishing house would take them into consideration.”
"Oh ~"
Chen Zhengyu nodded, indicating that he understood. After thinking about it, he decided to take out some of the dry goods to give his little friend some confidence.
He took a sip of red wine, swirled it in his mouth, and said with a smile.
"Boss, actually…I've already finished writing this book…"
"The quality of the later plots is not much different from the ones that have already been released. In fact, they might even be more exciting.”
He didn't say much, but the other party would understand!
As expected, when Lord Hua heard that the book had been finished, she raised her eyebrows and appeared a little surprised.
It wasn't unusual for an author to have a copy, but it was rare to have so many copies.
Anyone who could become the chief editor was not simple. He immediately caught the meaning behind Chen Zhengyu's words.
His expression became serious, and he began to think without saying anything.
Nuannuan, who was standing at the side, was not as composed as she was. When she heard that she had finished writing the book, she immediately exclaimed.
Her small red lips turned into a circle and slightly pouted. Under the light, they sparkled with oil.
To be honest,
It was a little alluring, and it made people think about other places.
This mouth must be pretty good ~
Nuannuan was a little unsettled. Here came the problem.
"Are you really done? 1.5 million words? You're amazing. Didn't you prepare for the college entrance examination and study?”
Chen Zhengyu smiled and said that these were all written during the summer vacation. He also said that this book had actually been written for a long time, so he made things sound more reasonable.
He even said how fast he was going…
Inspiration often burst out and so on…
Nuannuan was stunned. Her big eyes were filled with stars when she heard the last part.
At this moment, Nuannuan had a very good impression of Chen Zhengyu. He didn't expect this guy to be as handsome as his pen name.
He was very good at writing novels and his ability to earn money was first-class.
Look, this guy was able to chat happily with Chief Editor Hua on his first meeting!
"Zhengyu, you've hidden yourself quite well. Haha~"
At this moment, Lord Hua laughed and teased.
"You wrote the work yourself, so you know it best. Since you're so confident, let's do this…"
When Chen Zhengyu returned to his hotel room, it was already 9:30 pm.
After taking a shower, he lay on the bed and hugged his computer. He downloaded and installed a straight flush and began to browse the stock market information.
Since they were already in Hangzhou, there was much more room for operation.
He planned to make a big deal out of it after the publishing matter was settled!
To make a fortune, one had to do it early ~ Shanghai Literature Press. The three of them arrived in Hangzhou on August 18th.
The people accompanying the publishing house were very professional. There was a legal officer, a content editor, and a deputy chief editor.
In the afternoon,
Chen Zhengyu opened a small conference room in the hotel. The three parties officially met to discuss the specific cooperation matters.
Just as Lord Hua had expected, these publishing houses preferred to buy out and do this kind of one-shot deal.
Shanghai Literature Press offered 500,000 yuan to buy out the publishing rights of the physical book," Overbearing President Fell in Love with Me."
This price was actually very fair, because the current market price was like this, and this was the first money paid by the publishing house.
However, this was far from what Chen Zhengyu and the website had expected, so Chen Zhengyu directly rejected it.
The publishing firm's deputy chief editor continued to talk about the benefits of buying it out, but Chen Zhengyu was unmoved. He directly said that it was better to talk about the agreed royalties.
The content editor said that after internal discussion, they felt that this novel had great potential.
He planned to publish the first, second, and third volume of the book. One volume was 500,000 words, and the three volumes were worth exactly 1.5 million. It was priced at 21 yuan per copy.
The royalty ratio was 5%.
Lady Hua appeared and told the publishing house that Chen Zhengyu had actually finished writing the entire book. The plot was still online.
In order to increase his credibility and persuasiveness, Chen Zhengyu took out his notebook.
In the post-production and post-production stages, he took out 10,000 words each and let the content editor at the publishing house take a look.
After reading it,
Lord Hua immediately brought out the plan that they had agreed on last night to the deputy managing editor.
After more than an hour of discussion, the three parties finally reached a consensus.
Based on the final sales volume of the physical book, the royalty would be 6%. For every 500,000 copies sold, the royalty would increase by one point.
Additional conditions: The highest royalty is 15%; The sales of the first, middle and second books can be accumulated.
In other words, for one million copies, the royalty would be 7%. 1.5 million copies, 8% royalty.
In order to achieve the highest royalty of 15%, Chen Zhengyu's book would have to sell five million copies.
Five million copies sounded like a fantasy and impossible, but for the sake of the contract's strictness, it was still added.
No one had thought about whether they could achieve that. Even Chen Zhengyu himself felt that it would be good enough to sell two million copies.
The legal department of the publishing house made a contract according to the agreement.
Both Chen Zhengyu and the publishing house signed their names and pressed their fingerprints.
That night, the three parties had another meal, and the host and guest were happy.
Editor Nuannuan had wanted to stay in Hangzhou for a few more days so that she could spend more time with Chen Zhengyu.
As he said this, Chen Zhengyu kept drinking his drink and playing with his phone. He did not respond at all.
The girl was very beautiful and elegant. This was true!
But now, he wanted to be a good person. He didn't want to be like before, where his lower body always dominated his brain.
In this life, he wanted to work on his heart first, then his kidneys. Moreover, what he wanted to do the most now was to earn money.
Women would only slow down his money-making speed.
Hence, Nuannuan left in the end, and the two of them exchanged phone numbers.
……
Until the third day.
Chen Zhengyu was finally free.
After having breakfast at the hotel, he took a taxi to a well-known large-scale stock exchange company in Hangzhou.
After explaining his purpose of visit, a young business manager received him.
Looking at the youth on the other party's face, Chen Zhengyu guessed that the other party was either in the internship period or had just graduated.
In the case of insufficient capital, the best way to increase profits was to allocate capital and leverage.
The highest was 10 times, 500,000 to 500,000, 100,000 to 10 million.
All he needed to do was pay a certain percentage of interest to the security company.
The greater the benefits, the greater the risks!
The leverage funds provided by the security company and the client's principal were all in an account that was constantly monitored by the security company.
Once the money in this account fell by more than 10%, it would be forced to close the position. All the money in it, including the principal, would belong to the security company.
