The ensuing discussion went smoothly.
"Literary Monthly" likes to support emerging talents, and although Xiang Nan is young, his writing style is sophisticated and mature, and he has a very high talent at first glance.
Such a rising star in the literary world is the target of support from Literary Monthly, so they naturally do not hesitate to offer very good conditions.
Xiang Nan also knows the strategy of taking a long-term approach to catch big fish. As a newcomer, it doesn't matter if the remuneration is set a little low now. When he became famous in the future, there would be many people asking for his manuscripts at higher prices, so he did not worry about it.
If both parties have the idea of compliance, then the negotiation will go much smoother.
In the end, the remuneration was set at 35,000 won per 1,000 words. With a length of 300,000 words, "Blue Life and Death Love" can earn more than 10 million yuan in royalties. Even excluding taxes, it is more than 9 million yuan, which is very good.
If you write a few more books a year, your income will not be worse than Cui Ze. And once he becomes famous, his reputation will not be worse than that of Cui Ze. Xiang Nan expressed that he was very satisfied.
…
Later, Xiang Nan went home with a prepaid check of two million won.
After Ms. Leopard saw the check, she hugged her son happily and said, "We, Zhenghuan, are really great. Mom is proud of you~"
"Thank you, mom." Xiang Nan nodded, "Making you happy is my greatest happiness as a son."
"Oh, my Zhenghuan~" After hearing what her son said, Ms. Leopard was even more moved. She hugged him and kissed him hard twice.
"By the way, Mom, can you let me use three hundred thousand to make money for the first time? I want to buy something to share with everyone." Xiang Nan said again.
"Of course." Ms. Leopard agreed immediately.
She has always been open about spending money, but she is worried that when her son grows up, he will become as stingy and stingy as President Jin. So when her son wanted to spend money to buy gifts for everyone, she was very supportive.
Such a generous and forthright child is her good son.
…
Ms. Leopard then generously gave Xiang Nan 500,000 won and let him go shopping as much as he wanted.
Xiang Nan then called his friends and went to the mall to buy gifts together.
"Zhenghuan, why are you so happy?" Donglong asked puzzledly.
"Yes, why do you suddenly want to buy gifts for everyone?" Shanyu asked in confusion.
Deshan was also a little confused.
"I want to write something that will be published in Literary Monthly. This is the first money I have earned, so I want to buy some gifts for everyone." Xiang Nan explained.
"What?!" Hearing what he said, the friends all exploded.
"You wrote it? Is it true or false?" Shan Yu said in shock.
"Why didn't I know what happened when?" Dong Long was also surprised.
"What are you writing? Can you let me see it?" Deshan asked curiously.
Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "OK, tell me one by one. I wrote it to be published, of course it is true. I went home at night and wrote it, and the subject matter is a love story. But I have already given the manuscript to "Literature Monthly", what do you think? If you want to read it, you’ll have to wait until it’s published, as I don’t have any manuscripts on hand right now.”
"Wow~" After hearing what he said, Donglong, Shanyu, and Deshan didn't know what to say. In the end, they could only show their thumbs up to express their admiration.
…
At this time, in the alley of Phoenix Hall, Ms. Leopard also happily told Yihua and Shanying about her son becoming a writer.
"Written by Zheng Huan? Oops~" Ichika was shocked.
"One copy sold for more than 9 million, wow~" Shanying was also shocked.
Ms. Leopard nodded implicitly but proudly.
"Oh, sister, you are so lucky. Zhengfeng has such good luck, and Zhenghuan has such a good mind. Oh, it is so enviable." Ichika clapped his hands and said.
"Yes, you are really amazing. Other people's children are still spending their parents' money, but the two sons of my eldest sister's family have already made money." Shanying said with emotion.
"The Feng Shui in our alley is really good. First there was a Go master, and then there was a great writer. Oh my, when will Feng Shui come to my house?" Ichika said with a smile.
"Paula has been lucky enough to be admitted to Seoul National University." Ms. Baozi comforted her, "Sunwoo is also good at studying and will be admitted to a good university in the future."
Hearing what she said, Sunying and Ilhwa both nodded.
…
Xiang Nan took his friends to the mall to do some shopping.
Shanyu, Donglong, Deshan, everyone has a gift, even Pearl, Yuhui, and Paula are not left behind.
In addition, Xiang Nan also bought some Chinese medicinal materials for President Jin and prepared to help him recuperate.
President Jin has kidney deficiency and is ineffective in doing things. Ms. Leopard has complained about him many times. Feeding him eels didn't work, nor did he eat loach or ginseng chicken soup. Even after spending tens of millions, it didn't work.
But in fact, it was because she didn't understand pharmacology, and she took random supplements, which of course would not have any effect.
Xiang Nan is different. He is an expert in this area and guarantees immediate results.
After the big shopping, everyone went home happily holding gifts.
Everyone in the alley now knew that Xiang Nan had become a writer, and they were all filled with emotion.
"Oh, Zhenghuan is really amazing. He can become a writer at such a young age. It's really amazing~" Dong Ildu said with emotion.
"I really didn't expect that Zhenghuan is not only good at homework, but also has such a talent. Oops~" Shanying also said to Shanyu.
"Zhenghuan really put his heart into it, and the gifts he chose are all very good." Liu Zaiming said very satisfied after receiving the gifts from Xiang Nan.
For a time, Xiang Nan became a celebrity in the alley, but his fame was far less than that of Cui Ze.
But Xiang Nan believes that after "Blue Love of Life and Death" is serialized in "Literary Monthly", his reputation will soon rise.
…
In the next few days, Xiang Nan, in addition to studying and writing, was preparing for the study trip.
Study trips in South Korea are similar to outings in the Mainland, but they go further. Travel is mainly about sightseeing, sightseeing, inspection, and study, with the purpose of broadening horizons and enriching experiences.
For the students, it is a good thing not to go to school for three days and go out to play, so everyone is very enthusiastic and starts to prepare early.
Clothes, food, cameras...the most important thing is the talent show. Not only are there great prizes, but more importantly, you can be in the limelight.
They are all teenagers of seventeen or eighteen years old, in the prime of youth. Who doesn't want to stand out and stand out.
Therefore, not only Xiang Nan, but also other students are like this.
Dongyong has been preparing for his school trip and is also preparing to sing the new song "Where Your Steps Stopped" by South Korean singer Cho Yong Pil.
Xiang Nan is also preparing to perform on stage, and he chose Michael Jackson's classic song "Smooth Criminal". This song was released by him last year. It not only became the number one single on the Billboard chart, but also sold 20 million copies, which is quite sharp.
Michael Jackson has always been very popular in South Korea, so it is easier to perform well when performing his songs.
