Chapter 59: The Ambition of Twilight

Li Sishu didn't ask how much money Limu made after asking the bottom line, and people were willing to call and inform him in advance, which showed that he had treated the Lu family as his own family. Although Xiao Limu is a big ghost, I believe it is not big, as long as Lu Wei is allowed to slowly grind Ah Mo ~ Grind Ah Mo ~, sooner or later he will be able to grind the iron pestle into a needle.

Well, we're talking about good things and grinding.

Li Yishu has some scruples and doesn't plan to ask to get to the bottom of it.

However, Limu's mother didn't have this concern, and when she heard her son say that he sold 6.5 million copies, she immediately asked him how much money he made. In fact, Limu doesn't know how much he can get in the end, and the specific amount needs to be determined after statistics by Shangguo Publishing House, and it is estimated that 10% of the share can receive **100,000.

Of course, the unit of measurement is not the US dollar, but even if it is RMB, it makes Li Xiuli's tongue dry.

"Our family has become a million-dollar household?" Her face was full of disbelief.

Be careful that my liver convulsed non-stop, drank a few sips of water in succession, and looked at yesterday's newspaper news-

[Chinese mysterious cartoonist "Fullmetal Alchemist", hot in Europe! ] 】

Of course, she knows that the cartoon mentioned above is the one her son draws! Open today's newspaper again -

[Chinese mystery cartoonist work, "Steel Refining" in the book or out of stock! ] 】

"Actually, we don't have to sell this thing here." Limu handed his mother the single book sent by Shangguo Publishing House for the first time, and now this thing has become a limited edition in short supply, "Because it is rare to see in my country, and the media is so happy, the chain reaction has also happened here." ”

"Son, a million, nearly a million! How do you have to spend it? Li Xiuli was stunned and took the first single book that the newspaper claimed to have no sales on the market.

"Well, don't be confused, didn't I tell you to be mentally prepared?" Limu rolled his eyes and softly temples, "If it's only **100,000, I don't have to worry so much, but the matter is so big, in addition to the first batch, there must be a lot of things to happen next." ”

"Shangguo is definitely going to print the second batch, and it is wisest to change the cover of the second batch and treat the first batch as a limited edition. In the future, in order to collect the five Chinese rare books, maybe there will be hot copies in the market, but copying the rare books will not be profitable for me and Shangguo, and I can only earn some fame. Due to the current publicity and the false impression of 'shortage of goods', I estimate that the second batch of printed single books will sell more.

"And reading manga is addictive, and most of the readers who buy the first volume will buy the second volume, and if you buy two or three copies in a row, you can basically determine the amount of 'regular readers'. So**100,000 is just the first batch of comic income for the first volume.,How much money is the manuscript fee for a page can be ignored.,If I'm like you for **100,000 confused.,How can the rest of the things be arranged......"

In fact, Riki was also stunned when he received the news, "Steel Refining" is indeed a work that has sold more than one million copies, but he has never thought of the feat of breaking five million copies. It's a good time!

Perhaps the occasional background made with sketches is pleasing to the eye, or perhaps the works drawn with "single-mindedness" really show their love for comics. But the hot sale is what he didn't expect.

In his opinion, even "Steel Refining" is a new work by a newcomer to a new company at this time, and the last volume of the single book can exceed 500,000 copies, and who knows that it will eventually sell 5 million copies.

Now that I think about it, most of the original "Steel Chain" was sold in the original version, and my own comics were brought to Europe and the United States by Shangguo. The comics were advertised as having a history set in Europe and narrating the unique alchemical culture of Central Europe, and the sales area was not comparable to that of a small country.

Then, because the author is Chinese, due to the sensational effect caused by the media, "Steel Forge" has set off a boom in China. As long as the population is large, one in 1,000 people can buy a copy at will, and it is difficult to sell millions of copies without breaking through!

I know that "Our Existence", which was serialized in 02, has exceeded 12 million copies in this book.

"In the future, it is estimated that it will be like the Go fever of the year, due to the hot sales and media publicity this time, my country's comic industry will enter the international stage, and China may give birth to a group of cartoonists within ten years......"

Riki continues to deduce, if his comics can continue to be popular, if the next comics can also be popular, if it can prove that comics can make money...... At the same time, the "General Administration" should not jump out and make a fuss, ban this and that. If the pirates don't come out and harm the interests of the new generation of painters.

Well, we don't expect the internationally recognized strongest piracy market to die down. In short, the pear wood that unintentionally planted willows still brought the creative feelings of domestic cartoonists.

"If we can make so much money, if we deposit it in the bank, we will have thousands of yuan in interest a month, and it will be no problem if we don't have to work in the future!" Li Xiuli hugged her son and was excited.

The one-meter-tall little son made a lot of money with a wave of his hand on the table, just thinking of the bank's generous interest......

"Go and tell your dad that you don't have to gamble, and the family doesn't need him to make money."

β€œstop! I can't tell my dad, and I don't have money in the bank. Riki pushed out of her mother's arms and made a gesture of forbiddenness.

Perhaps her mother still doesn't know her father's gambling surname, but in the 30 years of her life, Riki knows her father's obsession with gambling better than her mother, and this obsession has risen to an ideal level.

"This matter should be kept secret from my father, if he asks about Shangguo Publishing House, he will say that I painted "Q version of the Three Kingdoms", which is only serialized in a magazine with a circulation of 10,000 copies, and I get an ordinary manuscript fee, and I can't get any money." Riki admonished like his mother.

Fortunately, Pear's father is not interested in comics and his son's career, and he doesn't even know what his pen name is, let alone what his son's pen name is.

"Money can be spent and played; It can be reinvested; We can fund aspiring young people to start their own businesses, and use part of the shares after entrepreneurship as our return; If you have more than one million dollars, if you take it and deposit it in the bank, you will lose a lot! ......"Riki to the mother to guide to.

Money can make money.

Depositing money in the bank can only be done by those who don't have time for other investments or don't know how to exchange money for money.

Riki knows the power of money, and although she is busy reading books and drawing manga, she will not give up the opportunity to make money.

He knows that the more money you invest, the more money you make, thus creating a "siphon effect" in economics.

If you have 100 million yuan in hand, any financial planner can earn 50% of the profit every year, that is, you can get 150 million in the second year.

Due to the siphon effect, the money of the poor always flows to the rich, from the era of the big pot rice in the 50s, and gradually enters the current state of polarization. The international average is that 80% of the money is in the hands of 20% of the people, and in the characteristic countries, 80% of the money is in the hands of 7% of the people.

Contractors exploit migrant workers, contractors exploit contractors, developers exploit wholesalers...... Layers of exploitation. Migrant workers say they don't make any money, which is of course, they are exploited by the contract foreman; The contractor also said that he didn't make any money, which is of course, and they were exploited by the contractor.

What is not exploited is the money controller who stands at the top of the pyramid, and then the Zheng government will exploit the top of the pyramid, forming a situation of taking from the people and giving it to the people.

I remember that there is a little story circulating in later generations, although the content is a little biased, but it is a point or two. Here's what the story says -

[The rabbit has a monthly salary of 5,000 and plans to use 200,000 to build a nest.

[The wolf is not allowed, saying that building it privately is an illegal building, and it is only allowed to buy from Wang Ba.

[Wang Ba first bribed the wolf with 200,000 yuan to obtain the development right, then used 500,000 yuan to buy this land from the wolf, invested 100,000 yuan to cover the rabbit's nest, and asked the rabbit for 2 million yuan.

[The rabbit couldn't take out so much money, so he borrowed 2 million yuan from the fox, and 3 million yuan with interest, and paid it off in 20 years.

[The rabbit's family has been working for the fox for twenty years.

[There are fewer and fewer rabbits, and the wolf thinks that everyone has no meat to eat if this continues, so he regulates it.

[The wolf seems to attach great importance to the problem that the price of rabbit nests is too expensive, and has studied and deployed policy measures to curb the rapid rise in the price of rabbit nests. In the end, it was determined that the price of the rabbit nest was too high

[Because some rabbits buy rabbit nests and don't live in them and resell them.] So the wolf decided: if the rabbit bought the rabbit nest and sold it within 5 years, he would pay the wolf a tax.

[As a result, the price of the rabbit nest did not come down, but the wolf made a fortune.

[The wolf said to the fox again: Lend only money to the rabbit who has paid more money first, and increase the interest rate of the usury, and do not borrow more to buy the rabbit's nest, but pay all the cash.]

[Wang Ba took advantage of the rising price of the rabbit nest to buy land from the wolf at a higher price, and passed it on to the price of the rabbit nest, and then sold it to the rabbit after the price was increased.

[Seeing the wolf working hard for himself, the rabbit is very grateful to the wolf, but still finds that the price of the rabbit nest is getting more and more expensive.

[The wolf said: This matter is very complicated, and it is really not easy to do, but the rabbits can rest assured, we will continue to regulate, and we can levy a rabbit nest tax on rabbits who already have rabbit nests......]

Managers are not wolves, citizens are not rabbits, and the taxes collected by the state will eventually be used for people's livelihood to build resettlement housing, low-cost housing and other facilities for the benefit of the people. If more low-cost houses and resettlement houses are built, and the houses are surplus, housing prices will naturally fall.

Of course, the state of the people must be based on the theory that the emperor or the government is incorruptible. If an official occupies 16 units, or if the earthquake-resistant housing collapses as soon as the wind blows, I am afraid that it will not be able to adjust it.

But even if there are enough honest managers, there will be a day when society will reshuffle. This is determined by the most basic genes. The rabbit is dead, the fox and the wolf fight, and the fittest survive by natural selection. The difference is only in the degree of incorruptibility of the social managers, and in the social system that is maintained with it – for the length of time.

Cartoonists, as the first producers of the foundation, are actually at the bottom. Although Limu took 10% of the share and 10% of the reimbursement, 80% of the profit was given to Shangguo. In addition to the profits of the publishing houses in China, the publishing taxes and tariffs of various countries are also outrageously high.

Since he has the ability to skip from the bottom, Riki is certainly not willing to let himself and his family continue to serve as the exploited in the middle and lower levels of society-

"I hope my mother can use this money to buy a house, and rent the house to others cheaply when it is not in use, and it will be mutually beneficial, and you will take bank interest. Wait for the house price to rise, and then slowly sell it one by one, cheaper than the market price, and sell it to people in need. If it's someone who hoards a house and wants to buy it, we try to open our mouths as much as possible......"

In later generations, many hoarders mostly occupied the pit and did not, they had money, and they did not need to use the small trick of renting to maintain their operations. They want to keep the house fresh and intact. It is known that the difference between a first-hand house that no one has lived in and a second-hand house that someone has lived in is more than one or two hundred thousand.

If someone has lived in a villa and a villa that no one has lived in, the difference in price is even more amazing!

Riki plans to let his mother do the old business - the rental business, to say the least, it is also the side of the word "taxi" with taxis. When you need a large amount of money, you can sell it at any time, or you can borrow money from the bank as collateral.

Even if you buy land, you may be more profitable to be a developer yourself. However, her mother is not suitable for this kind of business, she just wants to live a leisurely life without fighting. If she could buy an apartment next to the university, her mother would be happy to be the aunt in charge of the building, but in fact, Riki suspected that her mother would prefer to hire someone to help her manage the building.

Mothers are only suitable for such jobs. If she is allowed to negotiate with the political axe and win the bid with the developer......

Ah, if you pull out a large list of enemies such as the mayor's son and the governor's relatives during the period, the dog will be so bloody that it can't be bloody. I have to make myself "majestic", "shining", and "shocked", tear off the veil of the mysterious cartoonist, and call on fans all over the world to help me seek justice - personally go out to help my mother wipe her ass.

-, I'm just a small citizen, I just want to draw comics, why do you mess with that?

…… It's not about drawing comics for others to see.

"- Mom, you will sell the car, and you will run the procedures to buy a house, and if you can't do it, let the real estate agent handle it. It's okay to buy well or not, anyway, according to what I told you last time I came back from the hospital, the price of housing will increase sooner or later, and no matter how bad the property is, it can make money. Anyway, you're an adult, so you won't buy that kind of property with cracked walls and falling down at any time, right? ”

"What do you mean that you are an adult anyway, your mother is an adult!" Li Xiuli was angry, and stood up straight with her chest up, showing her adult status.

No matter who it is, if the child grants Chengren's permission in a tone of approval, it is estimated that he will be so angry that he will smoke. However, Li Xiuli can't fight with her son.

"Okay, then let me ask you, do you want to write your father's name on the real estate deed?" Riki threw out an embarrassing question.

How to sign the name of the real estate deed and whose name to sign?

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"It takes so long to think about such a simple question." Seeing that her mother still had to think about it for so long, the pear said proudly, "Of course it's just your name, can you imagine it?" When my father lost money gambling and wanted to move back to Ben and no one gave him money, he suddenly found himself in a situation where he could get a lot of money as long as he divorced. ”

The answer is that Li Jiahui will definitely choose to divorce and then find a young and beautiful wife until he loses all his money or is cheated out of money - Li Xiuli came to this conclusion almost immediately as soon as she was reminded.
