1040 [Frankly, I am the Great God]
"Tiankuo, what are you worried about?" Ling Xiangqian asked curiously, "What happened?"
Xiang Nan sighed and stated his concerns again.
After hearing this, Ling Xiangqian felt dumbfounded.
In order to publish books, cultural companies came to the school to ask for Xiang Nan. If it had been anyone else, Le Le would have gone crazy. But Xiang Nan had a sad look on his face, as if the sky was falling and the earth was falling.
It’s really hard to know how blessed you are when you’re in the midst of blessings, and people don’t know what to say.
"What's there to worry about? What if you just sell the copyright to them?" She asked in confusion, "Shouldn't this be a good thing?"
"It is indeed a good thing, but the timing is not right." Xiang Nan waved his hands and then expressed his concerns.
After listening, Ling Xiangqian nodded.
Although she couldn't fully empathize with him, she could understand Xiang Nan's concerns.
The son suddenly became a well-known writer and received a windfall of millions in royalties. This would indeed be a huge shock to his parents.
If you can accept it with a peaceful mind, it's okay. If your mind is unbalanced, it may lead to big troubles.
Just like what is written in "The Scholars", Fan Jin went crazy after learning that he had won the imperial examination. After his mother moved into her new home, she learned that such a big house, so much money, and such beautiful maids all belonged to her son.
I was so excited that I was so happy.
Or, like her father, when his official position was not high, he could still respect his wife and love his daughter. Once he became prosperous, he would mess around outside and quarrel with his wife when he came home, not caring about his daughter at all.
Perception.
Therefore, Xiang Nan is right to worry. Knowing that his parents are greedy for money, he doesn't want to tell them about his money-making, so as not to arouse their endless greed.
It’s just that I’m afraid I can’t hide this matter now.
"Tiankuo, what are you going to do next?" Ling Xiangqian asked with concern.
"I guess I can't hide this matter anymore." Xiang Nan sighed, "Since we are going to publish it anyway, we have to choose a reliable publishing house. I will never consider a cultural company like this.
.
Moreover, I will keep the money I earn and will not give it to my parents. If they don’t allow it, I may run away from home or even drop out of school.”
"Well, it doesn't matter if you drop out of school. Anyway, you have already been admitted to Peking University." Ling Xiangqian smiled.
Xiang Nan nodded.
In fact, with his current savings and his strength, it is not difficult to support himself, and it is also easy to make a fortune.
He just didn't want to make the relationship so tense and end up being enemies that never interacted with each other until death.
After all, although Chu Tiankuo despises his philistine and vulgar parents, he actually still loves them very much.
…
In the next few days, cultural companies and publishing houses approached Xiang Nan one after another.
Some of them visited the school, some came to visit the home, and some even stopped them directly at the school gate...
After being tossed by them like this, Xiang Nan's writing of the book was naturally exposed very quickly.
When people learned that the two popular novels "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" and "Tomb Raiders" were both written by Xiang Nan, many people were so shocked that their jaws were dislocated.
"Isn't it possible? Isn't he a master of science? When did he learn to write novels?"
"It's really unexpected that "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" and "Tomb Raider Notes" were written by him!
"These two novels are so popular that if you want to rent them, you have to make a reservation in advance, and they will not wait until they are overdue."
"It's really shocking that two such popular novels were written by our classmates!"
The classmates all talked about it.
Seeing that the matter had been exposed, Xiang Nan had no choice but to reveal the details to his parents.
When they learned that their son had been secretly writing novels for the past year and had earned nearly 100,000 yuan, Chu Guoqiang and He Yufen were both a little confused.
"Tiantian, you..." He Yufen pointed at her son, not knowing what to say.
Are you scolding him for not doing his job properly? But he has been recommended to Peking University, and he has also won gold medals and special awards at the International Olympiad, and has been ranked first in his grade all year round. It can be said that when it comes to studying for his job, he is already more dedicated than most high school students in the country. .
Are you scolding him for not knowing how to make progress? But he made 100,000 yuan in one year, which is more than the two of them have ever earned in their entire lives. And he is about to publish a book, which is said to be worth millions. How can this be said that he does not know how to make progress? This is too progressive.
"You have done so many things, why didn't you tell your parents?" Chu Guoqiang finally thought of something wrong and scolded him.
Even the parents didn't know that their son had done so many things. They didn't know until the cultural company came to visit. It was really hard to hide it from them.
"Are you afraid that your parents will ask you for money?" He Yufen asked again.
"Of course not. I also want to reduce the burden on my family when I make money. How can I be afraid that you will ask me for money?" Xiang Nan quickly waved his hands and said, "It's just that I'm still a student, and writing novels is a bit unprofessional. I'm afraid you will say that I'm neglecting my studies. It would affect my grades, so I did it quietly, and I was afraid that you would know."
"Yeah." After hearing his explanation, Chu Guoqiang and He Yufen looked at each other, feeling that it made sense.
"Then...son, what are you going to do next?" Chu Guoqiang asked again.
"Now that you all know it, I won't hide it from you." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "I plan to cooperate with the People's Literature Publishing House to publish all the novels I have written.
When the time comes, the money I earn will buy a house for my family and open a big market for you..."
Hearing what he said, Chu Guoqiang and He Yufen were very happy.
When my son grows up, he knows how to respect them.
"What about the remaining money?" Chu Guoqiang asked again with concern.
Xiang Nan heard his question, thought about it and said, "I want to use the remaining money to buy a house in the capital. Because I will settle there in the future, and the sooner I buy the house, the cheaper it will be.
Moreover, the appreciation potential of houses in Beijing is also great. Maybe in the few years I go to college, it will increase by several percent. By then, if I buy a house for one or two million, it may increase in value by hundreds of thousands."
Hearing what he said, Chu Guoqiang and He Yufen both nodded.
They were actually worried that their son would spend it frivolously when he got rich. But after hearing about their son's plan, they felt that his son was quite reliable.
Buying a house or shopping mall is a good consumption.
Seeing that they had no objection, Xiang Nan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
What he was most worried about was that Chu Guoqiang and He Yufen took his money under the pretext that he was still a child.
In that case, there is almost no other way out except falling out.
It was impossible for him to give them all the millions he had earned. After all, if he handed such a large amount of money to them, it would probably cause trouble.
If virtue is not matched, there will be disaster; if people are not worthy of wealth, there will be losses.
Chu Tiankuo's parents are philistines, vulgar, and have very poor moral character. They would quarrel over a few cents of profit.
If you hand over millions to them, it is like throwing a grenade to a naughty child, destined to hurt others and yourself.
It is often reported in the news that those who became rich due to demolition soon fell into depravity after taking the money, eating, drinking, gambling, and contracting all kinds of bad habits. In the end, not only did they lose their wealth, but they were also ruined.
Xiang Nan doesn't want this kind of tragedy to happen to his family.
