1317, 20 million before tax!

The signing, which lasted for a whole month, finally came to an end. Wang Bo, Hu Maolin, Zhang Qiong, including Zheng Yan, who asked for leave and left early, all breathed a sigh of relief.

After the noon celebration banquet ended, Hu Maolin and Zhang Qiong began to say goodbye to Wang Bo. Wang Bo was naturally enthusiastic about it, and said that he would take them to play around Shuangqing in two days. Hu Maolin said that he had played too many places in the past month, and the publishing house had accumulated a lot of things, and he had to rush back to deal with them. In addition, the results of this nationwide signing were so good that the first printing of 3 million copies was almost sold out, and book wholesalers from all over the country called the publishing house countless times a day, asking for the restocking, and he had to go back to the printing house to urge them to print the second reprinted book as soon as possible.

"Brother Zi'an, Shuangqing and the places of interest in your hometown, the scenery and people, I can only come here next time to appreciate it. After the advent of the Internet, the book market has been greatly impacted, and the sales of more than one million copies are already amazing bestsellers. Coupled with the increasing translation and introduction of foreign language books and the rampant piracy of pirate groups, the life of traditional domestic publishing houses is not easy, and the competition is becoming more and more fierce. Thanks to your incomprehensible brother, in recent years, three of your phenomenal bestsellers have been published and distributed in the Disdainful Society, and our life is still good. But don't take it lightly. Brother, since you believe in the disdainful society, believe in the elder brother, I can't hold you back, while you can still write, you always have to work hard to earn more pension.

"Hehe, Brother Zi'an, when will you start writing "Three-Body Problem 3"?"

Hu Maolin's remarks made Wang Bo a little embarrassed and sighed at first, but the other party's last sentence made him "angry", and immediately flew up and kicked towards Hu Maolin.

"Get out, go back to your imperial capital!

Wang Bo asked his second uncle to drive Hu Maolin and Zhang Qiong to the airport. He also went to the airport to see him off. After a month of eating and living together, walking south and north together, spanning tens of thousands of kilometers in China, and more than a dozen first- and second-tier cities, Wang Bo also had a deep friendship with Hu Maolin, a businessman, who was not lacking in the wisdom of a businessman, but many times he was also full of the literati's "humble position did not dare to forget the country's worries". He himself is also a literati, the literati send the literati, on the occasion of parting, a leisurely parting, come to two sentences of "send you a thousand miles to say goodbye", "persuade the gentleman to have a glass of wine" and other ancient poems to express their feelings, which can be regarded as the due meaning.

Naturally, the sour rot between the two was "ridiculed" by Liang Ya, Sun Li, Zhong Jiahui and Zhang Qiong, who were watching from the side. In this era, there is no such thing as "overflowing with feelings", otherwise it will definitely be detained on the heads of these two old and young masters who are hugging and chanting poetry.

Sending Hu Maolin away, Wang Bo, who had worked hard for a month, was completely relaxed.

On the way back, Liang Ya, Sun Li and Zhong Jiahui chattered about the next few days of travel. Wang Bo heard that travel was a little big, he was "traveling" in the past month, where is there any travel thinking now, the most wanted thing to do is to stay in the apartment and rest for a few days, and sleep until he wakes up naturally for a few days.

"Xiaoya, since Sun Li is coming to Shuangqing for the first time, you can take a look at the attractions around Shuangqing, don't run far, it's boring to run far. Wang Bo reminded the other party.

"Do you want to say this, it must be playing around Shuangqing and Shuangqing!" the girl gave her a blank look, turned around, and continued to discuss with Sun Li and Zhong Jiahui.

Wang Bo was bored, so he didn't get involved in the discussion between the three, but began to calculate his income in the past two months.

First of all, the unit price:

"Three-Body Problem 2 Dark Forest" has more than 100,000 words than "Three-Body Problem 1 Once Upon a Time on Earth", plus the inflation in the past two years, the pricing of "Three-Body Problem 2" has increased from 23 yuan/book to 32 yuan/book on the basis of "Three-Body Problem 1".

This is followed by royalties:

The royalties given to Wang Bo by the "Writers Publishing House" for the two books "The Wandering Earth" and "Three-Body Problem 1" are paid according to 15% of the royalties of the current first-line writers in China. However, by the time of "Three-Body Problem 2", in order to prevent other publishing houses from poaching people, the "Writer's Publishing House" raised his royalties by two points, reaching an unprecedented level of 17%.

Finally, there are the current sales volumes:

Up to now, according to the data given to him by Hu Maolin, the first printing of 3 million copies is about to be sold out, so it will be calculated according to 3 million copies.

Then, the pre-tax tax he deserves now is: 3000000*32*17%=16320000!

16,320,000!

Coupled with the signing fee of more than one million yuan for more than a dozen stations, and the crazy sales of "Three-Body Problem 2" have objectively driven the popularity of "Three-Body Problem 1" again, at least, those new readers who have not read "Three-Body Problem 1" will definitely have to buy a copy of "Three-Body Problem 1" before buying "Three-Body Problem 2", so plus the royalties of "Three-Body Problem 1", Wang Bo roughly calculated in his heart that in his unusually busy July, his total pre-tax income should exceed 20 million!

"Now the Forbes annual rich list of the Chinese literary world has not yet come out, otherwise, with my income of 20 million, I am afraid that I will easily reach the top. Alas, I finally felt what it means to be a lonely and a lonely!" Wang Bo shook his head, and sighed in his heart that he was cheap and obedient.

Ren Wei still agreed to Xia Xi's request, and contributed his girlfriend Zheng Yan to Sha Shuanghao to sleep, in exchange for making up for her regret that she couldn't dedicate her innocent body to her favorite brother Hao! As long as Sha Shuanghao slept with Zheng Yan and had Zheng Yan's first night, then she would forgive Ren Wei for the things that were worse than pigs and dogs for her, and the grievances and hatreds between the two would be written off from then on, and they would no longer care.

Now that Ren Wei has already committed a crime, Sha Shuanghao, who returned to his apartment, was not so angry when he saw Ren Wei again, and he spoke harshly. Seeing that the task was discouraged, like frost hitting the face of an eggplant, Sha Shuanghao comforted the other party and said:

"Wei Zai, you want to open a little. Agreeing to Xixi's seemingly ridiculous request is also a very difficult and painful thing for me. But now Xixi's mood is very unstable, it's easy to go to extremes, I'm the most loved person in her life, she values her chastity // more than life, you take her chastity //, it's tantamount to killing her half of her life. Only by agreeing to her conditions and making her feel at ease can you save others and save yourself!

"I know that making this kind of decision must be a very shameful, humiliating, painful and even angry thing, because all these old men have already experienced it!" As he spoke, Sha Shuanghao seemed to think of something, and his face became distorted again. Ren Wei shuddered when he saw it, and then he remembered Sha Shuanghao in front of him, not only was his girlfriend **** by him, but he almost committed suicide, if you want to say anger, if you want to say grievances, Sha Shuanghao is more qualified! At least until now, his girlfriend is still good.

Thinking of this, Ren Wei reflexively began to apologize: "Brother Hao, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for Xia Xi-" But before he could say a word, he was interrupted by Sha Shuanghao waving his hand. Sha Shuanghao's angry and distorted face slowly softened, and he became calm again, saying:

"Wei Zai, since the matter has happened, although you cuckolded Lao Tzu and almost killed Xi Xi, I can't wait to kill you and break your body into thousands of pieces, but all these emotions are just the normal reaction of a normal man. I have been a classmate for four years, and I have been close to each other for a while, and I am like siblings, can I really trouble you, or send you to a prison cell, so that you can't sit in prison?

What we can do now is how to deal with the aftermath, solve the problem, and comfort Xixi so that she can rekindle her desire for life.

"As for the swallow that you implicated, I ...... I can only say sorry. What we can do now is to let the swallow spend her time in ignorance, make her think it's you, and keep her in the dark. That way, she won't be hurt in any way.

"When the time comes, I'll give you a pill that you put into the swallow's glass while you're not looking. This medicine is similar to sleeping pills and makes people drowsy easily.

After that, you and Yanzi will continue to be your loving husband and wife, model lovers, and Xixi can be regarded as her own wish. ”

It was already the evening of the day when Ren Wei left Sha Shuanghao's apartment. Sha Shuanghao gave him 500 yuan and asked him to buy something delicious and nutritious. He is not a human now, a ghost is not a ghost, Zheng Yan must be suspicious when he sees it. Don't meet with Yanzi for the next two or three days, and wait until he returns to normal.

At the same time, before leaving, Sha Shuanghao warned him coldly, asking him not to play any tricks during this time, such as taking the opportunity to sleep with Zheng Yan first and taking away her girlfriend's red // pill or something. He doesn't understand anything else, but he knows how to tell if a woman is a virgin or not.

——————————————

Ren Wei dragged his tired body, beat him directly, and returned to the dormitory of the major science college. Once back in the bedroom, he collapsed directly onto the single bed in the lower bunk. Hunger, weariness, fear, remorse...... All kinds of emotions erupted together in his body like a surging tide. He cried "whining", crying heartbreakingly, sounding sad and desperate, like a helpless child.
