The manuscript fee has finally come out.

On November 5th, the author's background can check the manuscript fee of the previous month.

is more than Chen Li's estimate according to the minimum standard, and the manuscript fee income calculated to him is a little more than 170,000, which also includes the reward of the first place in the monthly pass.

However, this is pre-tax income, and a part of the manuscript tax will be deducted when it is actually distributed.

The standard of taxation of manuscript fees and individual income tax is different, more than 800 will be taxed, the proportion of taxation above 4,000 is about 11% of the income of manuscript fees, 4,000 yuan is this ratio, and 40,000 yuan and 400,000 yuan are the same proportion.

All taxes are directly deducted by the platform, and what is sent to the author is the after-tax income.

It was not until more than ten years later that the tax reform was in line with the individual income tax standard, first withholding according to the original standard, and then calculating the tax according to 70% of the individual income tax standard, and refunding the excess and making up for the deficiency.

After the tax reform, for the great god author, the amount of personal income tax that needs to be paid has increased, and he has to pay a lot of money a year.

For street fighters, basically the money withheld can be returned.

But judging from the standard given by Chen Li's background, with so much income in a month, after getting it for more than ten years, not only will it not be refunded, but it also needs to make up a part of the tax.

The current manuscript tax system is still more favorable to him.

According to this standard, he needs to deduct more than 10,000 yuan of personal income tax, and he can still have more than 150,000 yuan.

When the background saw this data, Chen Li's hands were trembling.

It was even higher than he had imagined.

At this time, Yan Xin was catching up with the night shift, and he was still sleeping in the rental room at the moment.

By the time he woke up and got up, it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon, and at this time, Chen Li's excitement had already consumed most of it.

Yan Xin called Chen Li and asked him what he wanted to eat at night, and brought it over when he finished eating.

Chen Li replied: "Stir-fried meat with celery." ”

Then he said: "Let me tell you something, last month's manuscript fee came out." ”

"How much?" Yan Xin came to the spirit all of a sudden.

"Including the monthly pass reward, there are more than 170,000 in total, and if you deduct taxes, there will probably be more than 150,000." Chen Li said.

"Wow!" Yan Xin exclaimed, "So much? We're going to be developed! ”

"It's okay," Chen Li said lightly, "It's one or two thousand more than I imagined." ”

When he said this, he was actually quite excited in his heart, but he had already concealed it well, and it even sounded a little disapproving.

This surprised Yan Xin: "Why did this guy become so calm?" Does he already have the psychological qualities that a great god of online literature should have? ”

When he heard this number, he was so excited that he wanted to cheer loudly, but he didn't expect Chen Li, who had always been very excited, to be so calm now, which was a bit abnormal.

But after thinking about it for a while, it's normal.

The book "Breaking the Sky", when it was first serialized, still attracted a lot of attention in the form of a passionate article, but it was only on the starting point network.

Later, he came out of the circle because of a scolding battle with another website's top god.

And then there's the sensational word count of updates and the sales record ahead of the circle.

It has become a hot spot in the online literature industry again and again, and in the process, the mentality has become more mature, which is understandable.

Here he was a little ashamed, thinking: "I am also a person who has lived a lifetime, and my qi cultivation kung fu is not as good as this young man who is not yet twenty years old, it seems that he was still very poor in his previous life, and he can't be calm about such a sum of money." ”

I went downstairs to a small restaurant that I often went to for a five-dollar meal, and I specially ordered a bottle of happy water.

There are only thirty or forty yuan left in hand, and there is still a week's salary, and this time spending so much money seems a little extravagant.

But he doesn't care anymore.

I will soon be able to share more than 70,000 yuan, do you still need to care about the money for a bottle of Coke?

During the meal, he also ordered a celery fried meat for Chen Li, and by the way, he also ordered a bottle of cold happy water for him.

- It's a good day, and it's worth a luxury.

When he finished eating, the boss had already fried the celery fried meat, and took two lunch boxes, one for rice, one for vegetables, and a bottle of the most frozen Coke, a total of eight yuan.

When he went to the Internet café with this, Chen Li had dinner, and he took over the computer, looked at the data in the background, and looked at the comments in the book review area.

While eating, Chen Li said to him: "The press fee on the 15th, when the press fee is over, I am ready to buy a computer, and I will not use the Internet café code word at that time, what do you think?" ”

"That's good!" Yan Xin said, "I have to buy a good computer, and the keyboard should be better." ”

"You don't have to ...... keyboard," Chen Li said hesitantly, "I'm used to using these keyboards for more than ten yuan, I'm afraid I won't be used to changing to a good keyboard." ”

In fact, he still wants to try the legendary mechanical keyboards that feel very good, but the price is too touching, and one will cost him a few months' salary.

Now I can make money, but my spending habits are not changing so quickly.

Yan Xin said: "Even if you don't adapt to it, it's only temporary, and it won't take long to get used to it." As the saying goes, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, and put your equipment in order, isn't it more handy to write? ”

Chen Li thought for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said:

"Then buy it! Buy a good computer and a good keyboard! ”

Making this decision, there is a feeling of pain in the flesh.

But at the same time, there is a very refreshing feeling.

said to Yan Xin again:

"Now the manuscript fee is so high, half of us are one and a half, and there are more than 70,000 yuan, and one month's manuscript fee is enough for you to be a security guard in Fengxiang City for seven years without eating or drinking, do you want to consider resigning like me? That way we have more time to study the novel, and you don't have to be so tired. ”

"Well, I'd better think about it first." Yan Xin said with a smile.

You can get half of the manuscript fee, and you can not work as a security guard.

It's just that being a security guard doesn't prevent him from coming up with ideas for novels.

What he gives is creativity, and many of the bridges are pulled out directly from the cool texts he read in his previous life, and they are not his own originals, so he only needs to consider whether he can integrate into this novel, and the workload is not very large.

When you go to work, you think about those things, write down what you think, and you can earn an extra amount of money, even if it's not much.

Now hesitating, the most important thing is that I don't have much security about the matter of sharing the manuscript fee with Chen Li, so I have to share the bonus for a few months first, and then talk about the resignation.

Anyway, this job is not tiring, and it is quite easy.

This reason is not easy to explain to Chen Li, so I can only find another reason:

"I work there as a security guard, and I have the opportunity to meet all kinds of people, observe different lives, and have a lot of time to think about the plot of those novels, which I think is still helpful for writing novels, so for the time being, I still want to stay there and do it."

Chen Li suddenly realized: "No wonder you can design so many characters, it turns out that you have been observing others!" ”

"Isn't it!" Yan Xin said with a smile, "If we write online novels, we can't do it behind closed doors, right?" ”
