Chapter 89: Book Sword Enmity Records Sales of 10 Million Sets

  Tianhua No. 2 Middle School.

  Dragonflies fly over in the sunlight, a patch of green rice fields.

  Watercolor crayons and kaleidoscope can't draw that rainbow in the sky.

  When can I have a mature and grown-up face like my senior schoolmates?

  Looking forward to the holiday, looking forward to tomorrow, looking forward to growing up in childhood.

  This song sounds so familiar!

  Fang Ruohan, who was staying in her room listening to songs, always felt that this childhood song seemed familiar.

  "Zhou Fan."

  It's him, Zhou Fan.

  This time, Fang Ruo Han finally remembered.

  At that time, he went to Zhou Fan's home and heard this song.

  The song is exactly the same as this one, and Zhou Fan also said that this song is called "Childhood".

  "Monday is ordinary."

  "Zhou Fan."

  Originally, it would never have occurred to anyone to associate the two names together; now, these two names seem to be one and the same person.

  Could it really be him?

  Although she thought that Zhou Fan might be the same as Zhou Yi Fan, but thinking about Zhou Yi Fan's current fame, Fang Ruo Han still had some doubts. Could it be that this little kid under her nose was actually the most famous commoner singer Zhou Yi Fan? If this were true, then Tian Hua City would probably be in an uproar.

  Never mind, I'll just call him tomorrow in class and ask him about it, that's all.

  The next day, Zhou Fan attended classes as usual.

  "Hey, why hasn't Li Shaohua come to class all this time?"

  Zhou Fan muttered a sentence. Unexpectedly, this sentence was heard by the people around him.

  "I heard Li Shaohua is ill."

  "Are you ill?"

  Zhou Fan is weird, but thanks to the classmates who reminded me on WeChat.

  "Don't be polite, we're all classmates after all."

  The man smiled slightly.

  However, Zhou Fan didn't say much to him.

  That classmate saw Zhou Fan's cold expression and wanted to chat with him. After all, Zhou Fan had completely exceeded their imagination in this period of time. They also wanted to know how a small mixed-blood person became a genius in just half a year. No wonder the beautiful teacher had been taking care of Zhou Fan before, it seemed that she had discovered his talent early on, but they were still unaware of it.

  Better not to think about it, before I didn't even bother with Zhou Fan, now going again will only annoy him.

  "Alright, everyone. There are only a few days left before the winter break and next year will be our last semester. I hope you can all cherish this brief period of time since the start of senior high school. Don't let it become a blank space in your memory when you look back on it years later. Alright, class dismissed."

  Fang Ruohan is indeed a graduate of the Chinese department, and even her speech is filled with endless artistic cells.

  However, after Fang Ruohan finished speaking, her eyes glanced at Zhou Fan.

  Jian Fangruo Han cast her gaze over, Zhou Fan had already understood what she meant.

  "I won't go."

  Zhou Fan responded with a glance.

  Fang Ruohan raised her head slightly and made a gesture that nobody knew what it meant, then she stared with wide eyes.

  "You dare, I will..."

  In an instant, Zhou Fan understood Fang Ruo Han's meaning.

  Had no choice but to grit his teeth and rush to the office after Fang Ruo Han left.

  "I thought you weren't coming!"

  "As soon as I walked in, Fang Ruo Han said. Zhou Fan was speechless and retorted, 'How dare you, you're telling me straight out that if I don't come, you'll go tell my parents on me. I'm saying, Teacher Fang, if being a teacher has gotten to this point for you, then you've really failed.'"

  "How could failure possibly teach a genius student like you?"

  In these six months, Fang Ruo Han had completely figured out Zhou Fan's personality and didn't get angry, responding instead.

  "This sentence made Zhou Fan break out in a cold sweat, 'Teacher Fang, can you dig a bit more?'"

  "I'm not as bad as you are, come listen to this song."

  Then Fang Ruo Han opened her computer and played a song.

  Under the banyan tree by the pond, cicadas are loudly calling out the arrival of summer.

  As soon as this sentence was sung, Zhou Fan jumped in fright.

  "This, this..."

  Seeing Zhou Fan's abnormal expression, Fang Ruo Han secretly felt pleased, "It seems that it is indeed this kid."

  "What's wrong with this song?"

  "No, nothing's wrong."

  Zhou Fan came back to himself and didn't say anything.

  "Haha, Zhou Yifan, your childhood singing is pretty good."

  Fang Ruo Han burst out laughing.

  It wasn't until now that she realized this little brat was actually so adorable.

  No wonder this kid always wanted to pretend, it turns out that he was hiding his true self and was afraid that if he showed even a little bit of himself, others would be scared off.

  It's okay, it's okay, I just let him play a little during the exam.

  If he really brought out his talent, perhaps... Fang Ruohan didn't dare think about it.

  "What's up on Monday?"

  Zhou Fan was shocked in his heart, what's going on? How did the beautiful teacher know that Zhou Yifan was himself?

  In Tianhua City, it seems like hardly anyone knows.

  Of course, before this, Chen Su had also asked Zhou Fan, but was deceived by him every time.

  "Pack, keep packing. Last time I was at your place, I heard you sing this childhood song."

  Fang Ruohan directly broke through.

  "Seriously, it's really careless."

  After saying this, Zhou Fan finally understood.

  I had hummed "Childhood" when I was free, and even told Fang Ruohan about it. Unfortunately, I forgot about this matter. As a result, when Fang Ruohan heard the song "Childhood" again, she recognized me. However, Zhou Fan would never admit to such things, "Oh, you're talking about that? I just happened to hear Zhou Yifan sing 'Childhood', and then I sang a few lines along with him."

  "Really? At that time, the song 'Childhood' hadn't been released yet!"

  Seeing Zhou Fan's embarrassed look, Fang Ruohan burst out laughing.

  It's so cool! In the past, I couldn't deal with this little kid at all. It's rare to see him being speechless, and it makes me feel great psychologically.

  "Alas, actually, Teacher Fang, you don't know, this song had already been circulating online at that time."

  "Depend on..."

  Fang Ruo Han almost spit water.

  This lie can also be said, this little kid is shameless enough.

  Forget it, I won't argue with a kid, I'm his teacher after all, don't be like the old school again.

  "Okay, let's not talk about that anymore. I called you here today to tell you that on the 27th of this month, the New Concept Essay Competition will be held. That is, the third day after winter break starts. And at that time, I'll take you there together."

  "Oh, I see."

  Although Zhou Fan wasn't very enthusiastic about this new concept, he had already agreed and wasn't one to go back on his word, so he nodded.

  "Alright, just like that, remember to bring a few more sets of clothes to change into. This time we're going to Nansha City in the far south, it's hotter there."

  "Alright, whatever you say goes, but don't ask me to do anything else from now on, I've done everything for you."

  "We'll talk about it after this matter is settled."

  This time, Fang Ruo Han seemed very relaxed, and once she turned the tables on him, teaching Zhou Fan this student, it became a bit easier.

  "Alright, I'm leaving."

  It was probably Fang Ruo Han who saw through him that Zhou Fan felt a bit embarrassed and quickly slipped away.

  "OK, Fang Van will walk slowly on Monday."

  A soft laugh.

  Just out of the office, Zhou Fan almost fell.

  "Damn it..."

  At once, he walked faster.

  ……

  "Hey brother, have you received the manuscript fee we sent over?"

  Back home, Li Zhi Cheng from Yanjing sent a message over.

  "Ah, I don't know, haven't checked."

  After saying this, Zhou Fang dared to go online and check his own bank account.

  It's probably because he was poor in his past life, but in this world, Zhou Fan's eyes would light up as soon as he saw money.

  "4 million."

  After carefully counting the zeros behind, Zhou Fan finally confirmed that it was indeed 4 million.

  What's going on? How did it become so many all of a sudden?

  Have they sold 10 million sets of books in just a few months?

  It was confirmed by Li Zhi Cheng.

  "Actually, the sales data of 1 million sets was broken last week. However, we also need to wait for the payment from other bookstores to be settled. Coincidentally, our cooperative partner, Hai Da Bookstore, has just transferred the payment, and I immediately transferred it to you."

  A book costs around twenty or thirty yuan, 1 million sets is over 20 million. After deducting some taxes and middlemen's profits, it's split with Zhou Fan, temporarily calculated at 20%, which is 4 million RMB.

  "With that said, sales of 40 million sets seem possible."

  "Yes, it is indeed possible."

  Li Zhi Cheng bitterly smiled and said, "Yi Fan brothers, now I have some regrets about agreeing to the 50-50 split with you."

  Li Zhi Cheng regretted it as soon as he thought of this.

  Even if it's a huge sum of 10,000 yuan for a thousand words, that's just 10 yuan per word. They don't want to pay that much money either. Looking at it now, if they exceed 1 million sets, they have to pay 4 million. If they sell 4 million sets, it's not as simple as paying 16 million. It's a 50% profit, which is a huge sum of 40 million.

  In one leap, Zhou Yifan is about to climb onto the list of wealthy writers in China.

  Now that I think about it, I'm afraid I jumped into a trap he had set up long ago.

  It was just a jump, but at that time, he never thought of it.

  "Haha, Brother Li, what are you regretting? I think you should be happy instead."

  Zhou Fan comforted Li Zhi Cheng.

  He also understands that taking away his tens of millions in manuscript fees would be heartbreaking for anyone.

  "How is this said."

  "You think, if you didn't agree to my terms, how could you have signed the Book of Sword Enmity? Although I took a larger share, but you guys also made a profit, right? As I see it, this is a win-win situation, what are you regretting?"

  "Haha, you little scamp, what you said isn't bad."

  Li Zhi Cheng smiled foolishly.

  Of course, the sentence he started with was also a joke. Even if it goes back to the past now, he will still sign like this. After all, sales of several million sets are simply a miracle in China's book sales in recent years. And they, Sanlian Publishing House, have transformed from a small publishing house into a large-scale publishing house, which has great benefits for both present and future.

  Such a good deal, grab it and sign it.

  "Oh, right! Weren't you guys from Xinsheng Publishing House being suppressed earlier? How did you manage to sell so many books in such a short time?"

  "You asked the right person. At that time, I was also worried, but when you held a book signing event at Haidabooks, I realized how hot your book was. At the same time, as one of the largest bookstore chains in China, Haidagroup was the first to cooperate with us. This sales figure of 10 million yuan, a large part of it is their contribution. And in these few days, I have also received calls from dozens of bookstores. They originally did not accept our books, but now they cannot help but ask us to give them tens of thousands of sets each."

  In these few months, Li Zhi Cheng was truly shocked again and again.

  He didn't expect that Zhou Fan's "Book of Sword Enmity" would be so popular. Moreover, the potential of this book has not been fully tapped yet.

  "As expected, the emergence of interests can make all allies betray."

  Zhou Fan sighed.

  "Yes, however, I actually hope we can continue cooperating. Don't worry, our cooperation will absolutely not change."

  Li Zhi Cheng hastily said.

  Such a genius, no, such a god of wealth, must be worshiped well.

  With Zhou Yumin in charge, Li Zicheng has ambitions to become the top publishing group in China and even globally.
