"Seven, seven or eight hundred thousand." Tong Yan chose to tell the truth.
"Look, it's only seven or eight...... Lakh!? Tong's mother screamed all of a sudden, not seventy or eighty thousand, but seven or eight hundred thousand!
Father Tong continued to ask calmly: "Then how long have you been writing these seven or eight hundred thousand words?" ”
"It's been more than four months."
"Four months is 120 days, counting you 720,000 words, which is equivalent to writing 6,000 words a day," Tong's father calculated one by one, "I remember that your 800-word essay takes almost an hour to write, so how much time does it take you to write these 6,000 words a day?!" ”
Tong Yan has always felt that his updates are relatively slow, but he didn't expect that after his father's calculations, it was not slow at all, with an average of 6000+ per day!
Hearing Tong's father's words, Tong's mother, who was still elated just now, suddenly collapsed, Shanshan didn't dare to talk more, looking at her father's tone and mother's expression, she knew that her brother was going to be miserable.
Tong Yan also felt that the atmosphere was wrong, if he didn't feel it at this time, he would be really stupid, his parents must be proud to be able to publish a book, but the premise must be that it does not affect learning, or at least affect learning, but listening to his father's analysis, Tong Yan needs six or seven hours of time to spend on writing every day, which is no longer a question of whether it will affect learning, but whether he is studying!
"No wonder your grades have dropped so much recently, it's because of this!" Tong's mother seemed a little excited, her appearance was more in line with Tong Yan's prediction of her mother's reaction.
Tong Shanshan thought that it might be more than this, but she would not add fuel to the fire on her brother at this time.
At this time, Tong Yan had to explain, "Actually, it's not as slow as my dad said, I'm typing on a computer now, and I can type 3,000 words per hour, so it only takes one or two hours a day." ”
"Computer?" Tong's mother and Tong's father glanced at each other, and then Tong's mother said angrily, "You even secretly ran out to surf the Internet!" "Parents in this era always have all kinds of prejudices about Internet cafes, and feel that they are not the place for good children.
At this time, Shanshan stood up and spoke for his brother: "Dad, Mom, brother has his own computer."
Tong Hang Liu Nian had been stimulated too much today, and after hearing Shanshan's words, they were only slightly stunned, and then numbly followed Shanshan into Tong Yan's room, and saw a second-hand laptop on his desk that was no longer bright.
Tong Yan said: "This is the tool I use to write novels, which are not literary works in the traditional sense, but online novels published on websites."
"I spend an hour or two every night writing out the content of the novel and then publishing it on the Internet, and the readers who like it will pay to read it, and then I share it with the website, and my income mainly comes from this aspect, and there is another part of the income from traditional physical books, which is the book you just saw, if a publishing house in Taiwan falls in love with a book, it will publish a book to the author at the price of a thousand words or a sales volume share, and now this novel has only published the first volume, more than 60,000 words, and the content I wrote is enough to produce ten volumes. This alone is tens of thousands of yuan in income! ”
What Tong Yan said is a completely unfamiliar field to Tong Yan's parents and children, and they don't understand the Internet very well, let alone online literature, they don't even know how to evaluate Tong Yan in more than four months, in the dead of night with a second-hand notebook to type out nearly 800,000 words, but they admit a reason: the world is big, and the learning is the greatest!
"Son, do you know that you are a high school student, and the first priority of a high school student is to study!" Mother Tong said bitterly.
"It's not that I don't stop studying, I'm working hard to balance writing and studying, and my grades are good enough for a good book."
"But you could have gone to Tsinghua University and Peking University!" Tong's father shouted, this middle-aged man who is not good at words seems a little excited!
Tong Yan also said that he was going to hit the strongest university in China, he had this capital at that time, but now he no longer says that kind of thing, although it is a pity to miss out on his favorite school, but the success of the Internet, the family beauty at this time is satisfied to offset this regret, even if he goes to an ordinary university, as long as he is still a child, as long as he can write a story that the public likes, Tong Yan is very satisfied.
"Dad, I don't think it matters to me what school I go to, I now earn more than 10,000 yuan a month, even if I am afraid that graduates of prestigious schools will not be able to achieve such a high salary in a short period of time, so why should I chase the false reputation of students from prestigious schools." Tong Yan comforted his father with such words.
"We don't need you to make money now, we hope that you can get into a good university and have a good future by then." Tong Ma said.
"I will be admitted to a good university, and I will have a good future, but I still want to make money now, because I have this ability, parents, you are now pushing three rounds of pancakes outside the hospital, haven't you thought about taking down the store again, being a decent businessman, or Shanshan, Qingxian No. 1 Middle School has been ranked third from the bottom among all high schools in the city for three consecutive years, their management is rotten, how many notorious things have happened, do you think you still have a future in such a school! Don't you want to go to Yangping No. 1 Middle School and take the entrance examination to a prestigious university? At the rate at which I am making money now, by the time you go to high school, as long as you don't do too badly, you will have the hope of getting into Yangping No. 1 Middle School. ”
"Really? Can I really? Shanshan was at a loss excitedly, entering her brother's alma mater to study, that was something she had never thought about before, her academic performance was average, and her family conditions did not allow it, so she didn't bother to think about it at all, but now her brother told her, you can, I can help you realize your dream, how much she hopes that her parents will not cut off her glimmer of hope.
The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat, Tong Yan is their precious son, and Shanshan is the pearl of their palms.
Tong's father snorted: "How can you be sure that you can make money now, and you will definitely be able to make money in the future, I don't understand writing novels, but it's normal to lose money and make money in business, can writing novels ensure that you will always make money?" How good is this line of work? ”
In fact, at this time, Tong Yan was also very vague about the future of online novels, he only saw that he could now earn a lot of money with his excellent imagination and writing, but he didn't think about the vitality of this industry, but when his father talked about this problem, Tong Yan naturally wanted to give them a peace of mind pill.
"Mom, Dad, online novels are a new industry, it hasn't been ten years since its birth, and now it's just a start, the previous online authors were simply writing for free, but a few years ago they began to charge, so the authors began to have income, at the beginning 1,2000 a month was good, but now there are people with an annual income of more than 1 million! I believe that I can go to that step one day, and even earn tens of millions or more than 100 million a year! My novels are now only sold in electronic versions online, as well as traditional physical books in Taiwan, if I can publish simplified books in the future, I will earn more, and if I can be adapted into TV series, comics or games, that income is even more unimaginable, in a word, online literature is promising! ”
After finishing speaking, Tong Yan thought about it for a while, hey, I said it casually, I actually have a lot of insight, I am really a genius!
