In the following weeks, the box office of "Detective Dee: The Empire of Heaven" indeed continued to rise, eventually earning 300 million in box office, ranking fourth in the annual box office rankings.
Xiang Nan benefited a lot from the movie's success.
His work has attracted more producers, and the price of film and television adaptation rights has soared.
The price of each "Detective Dee" series was only one million, but now the price of the "Xiu Chun Dao" series and "Detective Chinatown" series has risen to five million.
However, Xiang Nan does not plan to sell it yet.
He plans to wait until "Let the Bullets Fly" is released before discussing the sale of film and television adaptation rights.
Because he knows that the movie "Let the Bullets Fly" has a box office of 670 million in the mainland alone, which is even more popular than "Detective Dee: The Empire of Heaven".
With the halo of this movie, it is not a fantasy that the IP in his hands can be sold for tens of millions.
In this case, why should he be in a hurry to sell now.
In the following time, Xiang Nan continued his efforts and successively wrote "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate", "Thirty-three Days of Lost Love", "People on the Road", "Twelve Zodiac Signs", "Journey to the West: Conquer the Demons", "Encounter in Yanjing" A series of stories such as "Seattle", "Monster Hunt", "Old Paoer", "Wolf Warrior", etc. will almost sweep away the best-selling movies in the Chinese film industry in the next few years.
According to Xiang Nan's estimate, these IPs alone can earn him at least 400 million yuan. Adding in other income, it is estimated that his net worth will rise to one billion within five years.
By then, he will be more or less a figure in Hujiang.
…
In his senior year, Xiang Nan's life was relatively smooth.
In the play, three major events happened this year.
First, Yu Hongbo was wrongly accused by Li Weijuan, was expelled from the school, and left Huadong Construction in disgrace.
Second, Ruan Guan was not only cheated on by the scumbag Zhao Shiyong, but he also had to help the scumbag wipe his ass and borrow money to have an abortion with the woman he had made pregnant.
Third, Chen Xiaozheng had the biggest conflict with Zheng Wei since they started dating because of Lin Jing's photos.
However, these three things were all eliminated under Xiang Nan's operation.
Yu Hongbo accepted Xiang Nan's suggestion and kept a certain distance from Li Weijuan. Even though he still cared about her mental health, he was no longer as reckless as before.
After listening to Xiang Nan's explanation, Li Weijuan gained some understanding of Hong Bo and was no longer as sentimental as in the play. So there was no more misunderstanding between the two.
Yu Hongbo successfully kept his job, was not expelled from school, and his wife and children were not separated because of this.
…
Ruan Guan also broke up with Zhao Shiyong, a scumbag, and after more than half a year of healing, she has basically got rid of the scumbag's influence and has returned to her former happy self.
It's just that she is still single now and has no plans to find another boyfriend for the time being. This also saddened her suitors.
As for the scumbag Zhao Shiyong, it is said that he is engaged to the daughter of the local industrial and commercial director and will get married by the end of the year.
After the marriage, he even sent a text message to Ruan Guan, saying how he couldn't help himself, how he endured the humiliation and how he cherished the relationship between them.
Outsiders don't quite understand Ruan Guan's mood after reading these text messages. However, Zheng Wei was filled with indignation and rage, and made a special call to scold Zhao Shiyong.
He also warned him that if he dared to harass Ruan Wan again, he would send disgusting text messages and phone recordings to his wife, which scared Zhao Shiyong so much that he never dared to contact Ruan Wan again.
"That's a scumbag. He's already married, but he still flirts with Ruan Ruan. It's really disgusting!" Zheng Wei said to Xiang Nan, "But Azheng, you are right, he is a coward.
I gave him such a small warning, and he was so frightened that he dared not contact Ruan Wan again. I really don’t know why Ruan Ruan fell in love with such a timid coward. "
"Everyone has a hard time." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Fortunately, Ruan Guan has woken up now and got rid of the scumbag in time to avoid further harm."
"Yeah." Zheng Wei nodded. She also felt that Ruan Wan was much happier now and no longer worried about the scumbag like before.
…
As for Xiang Nan and Zheng Wei, they are still very affectionate to this day.
Lin Jing's photo did not cause any harm to the two of them.
This is mainly because Xiang Nan has a successful career and can confidently deal with his love rivals.
Even if Lin Jing returns from school and pursues Zheng Wei again, he is confident in protecting his love.
"Azheng, Lin Jing is someone I have liked before. I have been determined to marry him since I was very young, but there is a five-year age difference between us. This has become a gap between us.
I am in elementary school and he is in junior high school. I am in junior high school and he is in high school. I was in high school and he was in college. By the time I was admitted to college, he had already studied abroad.
So we have never been able to be together. As you said, there is no fate between us. "Zheng Wei later confessed to Xiang Nan.
"Wei Wei, if he comes back from his studies and pursues you again, would you still want to marry him?" Xiang Nan asked, looking into Zheng Wei's eyes.
"No more." Zheng Wei shook her head, looked at Xiang Nan, and said firmly, "Because I love Chen Xiaozheng, I only love Chen Xiaozheng. I love the person sitting next to me now. This one has breathing, warmth, and Emotional Chen Xiaozheng.”
Xiang Nan was moved to hold her in his arms when he heard what she said.
…
Also, there’s one more thing about my senior year.
That is, Xiang Nan and Zheng Wei won the gold medal and excellence award respectively in the student waste design competition held by the school.
Among them, Xiang Nan built "Wings of Freedom" using discarded PVC boards and nylon ties; while Zheng Wei built "Gate of Rebirth" using Malatang bamboo skewers and rubber bands.
The two works have their own thoughts and themes, so they were very popular after being exhibited.
"Senior Brother Chen is really amazing. Not only is he handsome and good at homework, but he is also so talented. The creativity of this "Wings of Freedom" group is really great."
"Senior Sister Zheng Wei's "Gate of Rebirth" is very well built. It is built with tripods and tripods. It looks weak, but it is actually unbreakable."
"Moreover, this "Gate of Rebirth" is made of bamboo sticks, with the tips of the sticks pointing toward the door. This means that whoever wants to be reborn must endure pain first. What a great idea!"
"In my opinion, Brother Chen's "Wings of Freedom" is better. No matter how low your background is, even if you are a loser, you still have the right to fly freely."
The students commented on the two people's works.
"Wei Wei, I'm really happy for you that you can win the Excellence Award." Xiang Nan smiled and said to Zheng Wei, "It seems that even without my help, you can still do so well."
You know, a year ago, she could barely pass the final exam.
"Azheng, I just want you to know that I can be someone worthy of you." Zheng Wei looked at Xiang Nan and said sincerely, "I hope that one day, you can tell the whole world that being with me, It’s the best choice for you in this life.”
"Yeah." Xiang Nan smiled and nodded.
If a couple wants to stay together for a long time, they must make progress together. Otherwise, if one party works hard to move forward and the other party tries its best to hold back, they will be separated sooner or later.
