Chapter 73: Those Years

On this day, Tang He unexpectedly received a call from Yu Manhong of Bay Island Crown Publishing House.

On the phone, Yu Manhong said that "The Legend of Wukong" has entered the publishing process and will be released on Bay Island soon, and asked Tang He to pay attention to the bank information recently, and the manuscript fee will be paid to his account in the next few days.

Hanging up the phone, Tang He clapped his hands excitedly.

This manuscript fee is just in time!

As Tang He taught Lu Guoxin the workflow of the Youpin Bookstore chain, Lu Guoxin got started quickly and has independently won several bookstores to join.

If it weren't for the limited funds, Tang He would still be wondering whether to recruit a few more salesmen, and strive to make Youpin Bookstore sweep the entire Hedong Province in one fell swoop within the year.

When Tang He's carefully selected black books such as "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" became the sought-after goods of several chain stores, the owners of those franchised stores regretted it and hurriedly contacted Tang He to supply them.

Compared with the original books of the franchise store owner, the books supplied by Premium Bookstore are obviously more popular with customers, and these books can hardly stay in the bookstore for a day, and are quickly rented by customers as soon as they are returned.

So several bosses gritted their teeth and disposed of the original old books at a low price, and then purchased a large number of them from Youpin Bookstore.

And Tang He, of course, will not let go of this gratifying change easily.

He went to several stores, collected marketing data, interviewed the owners of these franchised stores, distributed questionnaires to customers for survey statistics, and then made a promotional brochure for Youpin Bookstore.

This also became a powerful weapon for him and Lu Guoxin to persuade the new rental bookstore owner to join.

So by the end of August, Youpin Bookstore had unified the entire city of Mayi, with an average of two to three franchise stores in each county, and even a few bookstores in Yunzhou City next door.

The situation can be said to be very good.

And now the only thing that restricts the development of Youpin Bookstore is capital and manpower.

Relying on Tang He and Lu Guoxin alone to recruit franchise stores, their energy is really limited.

In addition, there was a bit of a problem with Tang He's prediction at the beginning.

That is, when he came to the capital to buy goods, he bought them according to the scale of opening a new store.

It's not really necessary.

The works of people like Jin Yong, Gu Long, Qiong Yao and others are available in almost every bookstore, in fact, these books do not need to be replaced all at once, they can be eliminated slowly, and now there are a lot of such old books in the warehouse of Youpin Bookstore.

At present, what franchise stores urgently need is bestsellers like "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" and "Single Bed in the Purse", which are not available in the market, and such books are the real hot goods.

It's a pity that Tang He's funds have all been invested in the operation of Youpin Bookstore, and he really can't spare the money to buy books in the capital at once.

After these days of accounting, he found that the profits from the sale of books to various franchise stores can fully support the development of Youpin Bookstore, and even have a surplus. It's just that in the early days of the business, because there were more miscellaneous expenses such as renting office space and warehouses, and buying office supplies, it seemed that it was a little difficult to make ends meet.

Now with the crown manuscript fee, this problem can be solved once and for all.

Happily venting the joy in his heart for a while, Tang He returned to the bedroom and continued to lie in front of the computer to code words.

You read that right, Tang He started coding words again.

Since "The Legend of Wukong" was published on the Internet, Don Quixote's ID has become a god-like existence on the Chinese Internet, especially in the Jinyong Inn forum, which is comparable to the moderator's bull fork.

Because of the changes brought about by Tang He, the current Jinyong Inn has become a forum for literary creation, attracting many online writers and literature lovers. As far as Tang He discovered, the famous Internet writers in later generations include Li Xunhuan, Baby Anne, Where is He Now, and Yang Rebellion...... As for unknown writers, there are countless more.

As the saying goes, literati despise each other, and they are always quarreling for fame and fortune.

Tang He wanted to communicate with a group of online writers in the forum with the purpose of communication, but the rivers and lakes are eventful, the forum has many words, and his speech cannot be recognized and convinced by everyone in the forum.

It's okay once or twice, but there are too many times, but Tang He, an old netizen who has been on the Internet for decades, can't help but post a rebuttal.

Who's afraid of who!

And so an unprecedented war of words began.

It doesn't matter what the cause is, it's just that some writers have pink eye, and they feel that Tang He's writing level is average, and the reason why "The Legend of Wukong" is so popular is nothing more than the name of the top brand of online literature.

Don Quixote was angry, and naturally there was a group of soy sauce crowds waving their flags and shouting on the side.

And those pink eye patients were not to be outdone, and broke "The Legend of Wukong" to criticize one by one, and the one who made the most noise even bluntly said that Don Quixote wrote a ball of shit.

Not to mention the uproar among the fans of "The Legend of Wukong", even Tang He couldn't help but be angry when he saw it.

It's really an uncle who can bear it, and an aunt can't bear it.

Tang He read the novel written by a writer called Blank with a screen name, a sour romance novel.

This is called a blank writer's writing pen, which is quite gorgeous, but the content that can be written stinks badly. Tang He can see between the lines that this blank space not only wants to write a pure love story, but it has a stinky shelf of traditional literature, and the whole thing is nondescript.

After the so-called elimination of evil and punishment of the former and the wrong, Tang He immediately decided to carry out a devastating blow to this blank.

Didn't you say that "The Legend of Wukong" was not well written......

Don't you think you're awesome at writing romance novels......

Hehe, look at how Lao Tzu cleans you up!

Tang He, who was sitting in front of the computer, looked at the previous text on the screen, and then continued to type on the keyboard like a cloud of previous words.

It is said that when An Ke confessed to Tang He in the graduation season, for some reason, Tang He's mind clearly recalled a movie he had seen in his previous life, and even faintly appeared in his mind at that time.

Maybe it's the occasion, or maybe he is too impressed by the movie in his previous life.

Therefore, when Tang He wanted to write a pure love novel, the first thought that came to mind was to write that movie in the form of a novel text.

This movie called "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" was originally a novel, and it was later remade into a movie by the author Nine Knives.

Tang He has never read the original book of Nine Swords, but he has repeatedly brushed this movie in his previous life, so he is not unfamiliar with writing it at all.

And he has his own attitude towards youth and love.

Based on the movie pictures of his previous life, and integrated into the memories of his high school days, Li Guoer's classmate is not only his tablemate but also the top student in the class, and the daily friendship between the two is no worse than the hazy love between Nine Knives and Shen Jiayi.

Tang He vented the impulse in his heart, about the innocence, love, sadness, and confusion of youth.
