Chapter 40 Explosion
  the other side!
  Lin Zhengyi and He Min left the hospital together.

"Mr. Lin, I'm in a bad mood right now, so I'm going back first!" He Min was still a little angry, but still said goodbye to Lin Zhengyi politely.

First it was Huang Ziyang and then Zhou Xingxing. Although the relationship was not that of boyfriend and girlfriend, at least one was a suitor she had considered agreeing to and the other was her student.

The true faces of these two people were exposed, but it made her feel chilled.

Therefore, she is in a bad mood now and wants to go back and have some quiet time.

"I'll take you back!" Lin Zhengyi said seriously.

He knew that he couldn't be impatient for a woman like He Min.

Moreover, He Min was in a bad mood right now. If he tried to join in blindly, he might annoy the other party.

just now!

Now that the biggest threat Huang Ziyang is over, and the secondary threat Zhou Xingxing is over, all he has left is to take his time and give He Min some time to change his mood, so that it will be easier to win over the opponent.

"No, I'll just take a taxi back." He Min waved his hand.

"Okay, be careful on the road." Lin Zhengyi agreed.

He didn't say anything to send the other person back. He knew that his relationship with He Min had not reached that point yet.

The two of them had only met once and had dinner together.

If he speaks rashly, he will only make the other person feel uncomfortable.

quickly!

Lin Zhengyi watched He Min take a taxi and leave.

"After some time, He Min's mood has relaxed, and then he can take advantage of her emotional window to slowly approach her, and then take advantage of it!" Lin Zhengyi narrowed his eyes and murmured.

  In a blink of an eye!

A few days later!
  On this day, Lin Zhengyi received a phone call.

"Hi, baby, long time no see!" A joking male voice came from the other end of the phone, still speaking in English.

"Speak normally."

Hearing this voice, Lin Zhengyi rolled his eyes and asked in English, "How is your kid doing lately?"

Well, upon hearing this voice, Lin Zhengyi immediately recognized that the person on the other end of the phone was none other than his brother Ed.

"What else can I do? I was dragged back by my old man to be a nominal general manager. I have to have meetings or deal with documents every day. As a result, I don't have time to go to parties, let alone pick up girls!"

After a voice of resentment came from Ed, he asked curiously, "Where are you? How have you been recently? I heard that your kid became a policeman? You said that you, a law school graduate, don't want to be a lawyer, but become a policeman?" guy?"

"Being a policeman has always been my wish, and there's nothing wrong with being a policeman. As long as you don't make any big mistakes, you won't be fired. The harvest will be guaranteed despite droughts and floods!" Lin Zhengyi said with a smile.

"It seems so!"

Ed responded, and then said, "By the way, I called today because of your Harry Potter manuscript. I have received all your manuscripts. I didn't expect you to be so good at it!"

"I know a lot!" Lin Zhengyi said with a smile.

"hehe!"

After Ed smiled, he said sternly, "Generally speaking, I think Harry Potter looks good and is quite exciting, but the people below don't think it will be popular."

"But it doesn't matter. The group belongs to my family. According to my authority, I have arranged the most luxurious package for you, with a 10% after-tax royalty, plus a first printing of 10,000 copies, and a bookstore related to our company. How about all the publicity, is it interesting, brother?"

Interesting enough?

So interesting!

Lin Zhengyi has long understood that most newcomers in this field receive a fixed remuneration, which is basically how much it costs for a thousand words. Regardless of whether the book is popular or not, you will get this money in the end.

Even if it becomes popular in the end, you can only take the money.

Only some that are relevant, or have better writing, can get 3 to 5% of the royalties, and they are not after-tax, but before-tax, which means they have to pay a large amount of tax.

Even for experienced players, their royalties are only about five to seven.

Ten percent after tax is already available only to some well-known figures in the industry.

As for higher ones, only a few top people in the industry can get them. So, logically, Lin Zhengyi would never be able to get this number, but now that he has got it, it doesn’t take much thinking to know that it is definitely because of Ed’s great effort.

"I'll treat you to a drink next time we meet!" Lin Zhengyi said seriously.

Obviously there is no need to talk too much between brothers, just asking you to drink can sum up everything.

"That's a deal!" Ed said with a smile.
-
  after one day!

Lin Zhengyi received a faxed contract from Reed Company.

Generally speaking, it is best to consult a lawyer for things like contracts.

However, Lin Zhengyi graduated from law school, so he didn't need to go to such trouble. He read it carefully twice, made sure there was no problem, signed and sealed it, and then sent it back.

that's it!
  The contract has been signed.

That afternoon, he received a call from the bank, saying that he had a cross-ocean transfer of 20,000 pounds.

After conversion, it is about 160,000 Xiangjiang coins.

It's not much, but it's just the beginning.

Although Harry Potter will become more popular in the future, there will definitely be more, and if it is adapted into a movie or TV series later, there will still be an income.

And next!

Just as Lin Zhengyi expected.

Just ten days later, he received a call from Ai Dexing, who excitedly said that his book was a hit.

He said that it was already the third day after the two of them contacted Harry Potter after going through their company's process to print it, and because of the good publicity, Harry Potter immediately became popular.

In the beginning, there were more than a hundred volumes, maybe two hundred volumes.

Slowly starting from the fourth day, there were six or seven hundred copies, followed by thousands, and then thousands, and the number increased day by day. By the time he called, Harry Potter had been sold out.

Finally, Ed also said that after discussions with the company's professional team, he felt that judging from the current popularity of Harry Potter, there is no problem in selling at least 150,000 copies, so he decided to print an additional 100,000 copies. book.

To this!

Lin Zhengyi naturally agreed happily.

then!

The next day he earned two hundred thousand pounds.

That is to say, the income was more than 1.6 million Hong Kong dollars.

Including the original savings, Lin Zhengyi now has more than two million in savings.

"As expected of a book that was originally a hit without any publicity in the world, now with such publicity, it has brought me so much income in just ten days!" Lin Zhengyi murmured happily.

but!

Looking at his two million savings, Lin Zhengyi suddenly felt a little itchy.

or
  Buy something?

People want to spend money as soon as they have money, and Lin Zhengyi thinks the same way.

But what to buy is the question.

Although he wanted to spend some money, he still had some sense in his mind. While spending money, he still wanted to buy something practical instead of wasting money on buying random things.

finally!
  After thinking about it carefully, Lin Zhengyi finally thought of what to buy.

car!
  Lin Zhengyi got his driver's license a long time ago, but because he didn't have much money on hand, and considering that he might have to spend money in case of any emergencies, if he bought a car, he wouldn't have enough money, so he I have never wasted money buying a car.

Now that he has money, and with the popularity of his books, there will be a steady stream of income in the future, so he thinks he can buy a car.

"It's decided, buy a car!" Lin Zhengyi thought.
