Chapter 041: The first book is on the shelves
In the morning, Xiang haunted the office of Culture Media Co., Ltd.
It had been a full month since Tang Xiang's extravagance at Dongquan Villa, and he found that his life hadn't actually changed much.
It's December 23, 2008, and there are 10 days left before the Advanced Math exam and 6 days before the Linear Algebra final exam.
Tang Xiang still lives in the old housing area on the outskirts of Tailian City, Tang Zhihai and Xu Yanrong still run the Fulin Medicinal Kitchen tepidly, without the dream garden luxury villa, and there are no luxury cars such as Rolls-Royce Phantom.
Tang Xiang was a little confused.
If it weren't for the 1.92 million cash dug up in his bank card now, I'm afraid he would feel like he was dreaming.
The current profit channel of "Xiang Haunted" is still very single, and it is completely maintained by the manuscript fee of "Douluo".
To be more precise, it will be maintained by the manuscript fee of "Douluo" in the future, because today is the day when "Douluo" will be put on the shelves to earn subscription fees.
At this time, all the employees of the company were quite nervous about Douluo's results, although according to estimates, Douluo's first order basically locked the first place in the whole channel in advance, but it is still unknown how high it can be.
This is a major event that will determine the future development of the company.
It's normal for employees to be nervous, because they don't have a God perspective, although they have always mistakenly thought that Tang Xiang's background is extremely terrifying, but after all, this company only has Tang Xiang as the actual controller, and if it is not well managed, it may go out of business.
They don't want to be unemployed.
With such a high salary, it is difficult to find a second job.
"Brother Xiang, what are you doing there? Don't you wait to see the results of our book?"
Wei Kunliang sat in front of the computer and asked, ordinary employees would not dare to talk to Tang Xiang in this tone.
"Also, there are a lot of people in the book review section who are scolding our books. β
That's right, under the soft grinding and hard bubbles of his roommate Wei Kunliang, Tang Xiang promised to give him a temporary position as a work information manager, mainly responsible for announcing information such as update time, replying to readers' comment questions, etc., which is a quiet job.
After all, Wei Kunliang, as the propaganda minister of the Ziqiang Society, helped Tang Xiang when recruiting writers, so he must give something in return.
"Stop. Tang Xiang stopped his next rambling words: "Don't bother me, I'm thinking." β
Tang Xiang is now thinking about how to give birth to more money from the two million in his hand as soon as possible.
In fact, it is not impossible for him to rely entirely on the treasure game, 2 million is enough for him to eat and drink spicy food and be stable and rich in 2008, not to mention that this number is increasing at a rate of 50,000 per day.
But Tang Xiang felt that this money was not enough at all, and he had a "small goal".
That is to become a rich man in the country and even the world, or a consortium, the kind that can compete with the Rochester family, and it is by no means a small rich.
He's going to be a man of great manhood.
Tang Xiang opened the treasure game panel and clicked on the experience slot.

In the past month, Tang Xiang has collected thousands of admiration points, and after the exchange, the experience points have increased from the original 500 points to 899 points, but there is still no prompt to trigger the novice task five.
"Brother Xiang, aren't you really going to take a look?" Wei Kunliang interrupted his train of thought again. β
Tang Xiang replied absentmindedly: "Wait a minute." β
Wei Kunliang shook his head helplessly: "Hey, the world of local tyrants is really not something we can figure out. β
Wei Kunliang knew that Tang Xiang hired these employees with an annual salary of millions, but the strange thing was that Tang Xiang seemed to be completely free-range to this company, and he felt that Tang Xiang should be too rich, so he casually opened a company to play tickets.
If only I had so much money to spare, he thought to himself.
[Admiration +5]
Wei Kunliang's head flashed a label.
"Ding! Capture 5 points of admiration from Wei Kunliang, automatically exchange for 1 point of experience points, and the total experience points reach 900 points, and the game system will automatically trigger the novice task five. β
Tang Xiang heard the system's prompt tone: "It's coming!"
He hurriedly clicked on the notification interface and found that it read: Novice Task 5 has been issued, please pay attention to check.

Tang Xiang didn't expect that at this juncture, Wei Kunliang's little admiration value directly made him trigger the fifth novice task.
This fifth novice task is not complicated, in fact, it is just to collect experience points and upgrade the treasure slot, but there is a time limit.
"It's not that difficult, just throw some money at random, and it is a matter of minutes to get admiration points. Tang Xiang pursed his lips and closed the game interface in a relaxed mood.
"Twelve o'clock at noon!
At this time, I saw that the employees were all staring at the computer screen with nervous expressions.
At the starting point, multiply the number of subscriptions in the first hour after the release by five to calculate the total number of subscriptions on the first day, so in fact, authors will know whether their book has hit the street an hour after it is released.
Wei Kunliang stood up directly this time and dragged Tang Xiang to the computer and pressed it, he scrolled the slider to show Tang Xiang.
"Brother Xiang, look at these bad reviews, the more they are on the shelves, the more they will be deleted?"
"What to delete, how can there be a novel without bad reviews?" Tang Xiang smiled disappreciatively, and then took the mouse and browsed it by himself:
Hey, the data is so high, it's all brushed, right? It's like playing online games, fighting monsters and upgrading, it's really rubbish, and it's all elementary school students?γ
The mentally cheap orgasmic text piles up, it's disgusting to watch, hehehe. γ
The mandala snake bit Tang San's two-foot-long sword and died? Author: Do you know how long two feet are? Can you stab such a long snake from the mouth to death?
......
Tang Xiang flipped down, and about one out of every ten comments was scolded, and there were all kinds of strange reasons.
Looking at these successive bad reviews, his smile gradually froze: Ya, it seems that this work must be theorized with you today.
"Old Wei. β
"In!"
Tang Xiang rolled his arms and rolled up his sleeves: "Open a single chapter." β
