Back to 1997, I became the originator of online literature

Chapter 151: Impact on the minds of people inside and outside the circle
When San Shao, who works in Beijing, saw this news online that afternoon, his eyes were full of disbelief.

He read the news several times, focusing on the two pieces of information, "a little gray in Central Plains" and "100 million", for a long time.

The envy in his eyes couldn't be hidden.

……

That night.

The book review section of "Living with the Air Hostess" suddenly became lively.

The number of posts skyrocketed.

"This is amazing! The film and television adaptation rights were sold for one million. The author has become a millionaire overnight!"

There are many replies to this post.

For example: "It's really amazing! But before the copyright was sold, I thought Ah Hui was already a millionaire, right? Which of his books since his debut has not been published in mainland China and Taiwan? His royalties should be more than one million, right?"

"Which one has been published in the mainland and Taiwan? It seems that "God's Tomb" has not been published in the mainland yet?"

"I never dreamed that Zhongyuan Yidianhui's most profitable work would be this one. This Flight Attendant should be the one with the fewest words among his books, right?"

"Hey! Do you think that after the copyright is sold, will the author come back to write about love stories?"

……

There are many other main posts.

For example: "Author! Have you made enough money now? Can you release the last chapters of this book as soon as possible? The traditional Chinese version has been published, the simplified Chinese version has also been published, and now even the film and television adaptation rights have been sold. Do you have any other copyrights to sell? Why don't you release the last chapters?"

“He’s the number one emerging writer. This is confirmed!”

"As expected of you! Zhongyuan Yidianhui, you should change your name to Zhongyuan Yidiancool!"

"It would be great if a Hong Kong film company bought it! Taiwanese films aren't very good, right?"

"One million... I'm suddenly a little touched when I think of a millionaire writing novels for me every day!"

"Author! Do you have a girlfriend? If not, what do you think of me? If you do, would you consider changing her? If not, would you consider adding me? I don't mind."

……

The next morning.

Magic City.

When Han Er saw the news in the newspaper, he rubbed his eyes subconsciously, thinking that he had read the number wrong.

When he was sure that the number written in the newspaper was really 100 million, he was stunned for several seconds before smiling and saying to himself: "He is worthy of being my idol."

……

noon.

Sichuan.

In a high school cafeteria, when Guo Xiaosi heard a few classmates chatting next to him and mentioned Zhongyuan Yidianhui, he subconsciously pricked up his ears to listen.

When he heard those classmates say that the film and television adaptation rights of Zhongyuan Yidianhui's "Living with the Air Hostess" were sold for 100 million, he suddenly shuddered, and the chopsticks in his hand fell to the dining table with a click.

100?
He couldn't believe it.

I quickly stood up and went over to confirm with those classmates.

When he confirmed that the news was accurate, his eyes brightened much more than usual.

I was more determined than ever to write a novel.

……

Xue Ping, a Chinese teacher at a middle school, also saw this news in the newspaper subscribed by the school during his lunch break that day.

The five words "A Little Gray in Central Plains" came into his sight again.

But this time, he appeared in the newspaper in front of him as a millionaire.

The last time he saw these five words in the newspaper was when Zhongyuan Yidianhui was engaged in a war of words with traditional writers and professors such as Huang Shuren and Gongyang Buyu in the media.

At that time, he became curious about Zhongyuan Yidianhui's works.

He took advantage of the weekend to go to the county town and bought "I Want to Become an Immortal" to read. After reading it, he was inspired and began to try writing novels.

To date, he has written more than 300,000 words for his book "The Reincarnation of the Emperor of Heaven".

It just hasn’t been published yet.

He had an impression of the movie "Living with the Air Hostess".

He went to the county bookstore to try out the book that day, but because he was not interested in romance novels, he did not buy it. In the end, he bought "I Want to Become an Immortal".

He didn't expect that it was this love novel that he had no interest in that allowed Zhongyuan Yidianhui to sell the film and television adaptation rights for 100 million.

100 million...

If I had one million, my wife and children and I wouldn't have to live in the dormitory assigned by the school. If I had one million, I could quit this crappy job and no longer have to listen to students calling me a "eunuch" behind my back. If I had one million, I could buy cigarettes of a higher quality.

He suddenly remembered that summer vacation was coming soon.

Maybe I can follow the example of Zhongyuan Yidianhui and post my "The Reincarnation of the Emperor of Heaven" on the Internet. Maybe it can be published?

I don’t expect to be able to sell the film and television adaptation rights, but even if I can just publish it and make a few thousand yuan a month, that would be good enough!

I have revised the manuscript of "The Reincarnation of the Emperor of Heaven" three times and also checked a lot of information. The quality should be okay, right?

He thought about these things in his mind, but his eyes did not look very confident.

Because deep down, he never believed that he could become a writer.

Writer...

Is it something a mere teacher like him can do?

……

Guo Jingfeng in Hong Kong also saw the media reports.

The one million yuan fee for film and television adaptation did not have much of a mental impact on him who lived in a place like Hong Kong.

Hong Kong has a well-developed entertainment industry and is known as the Hollywood of the East. Local entertainment news often reports that this movie made tens of millions and the screenwriter made hundreds of thousands.

Therefore, he doesn't care much about similar news.

And the reason why he paid attention to this news this time.

This is mainly because the author who received one million in copyright fees this time was Zhongyuan Yidianhui.

Before this, he had read "Living with a Flight Attendant" and felt that he could do the same with such writing style and works.

But after he finished watching the first episode "God's Tomb", Zhongyuan Yidianhui had already risen to the level of a genius writer in his heart.

He was amazed by the creativity of "God's Tomb", the rapid plot advancement, and the dense excitement.

It was as if he had discovered a new world.

Since then, he has also started to create.

I have also been following the news about Zhongyuan Yidianhui.

In his heart, Zhongyuan Yidianhui is a pioneer, a banner of new-style novels, and an object for later generations like him to learn from and catch up with.

So, when he saw in the newspaper that the film and television adaptation rights of "Living with the Air Hostess" were sold for one million, he felt proud and smiled happily.

He said to himself with a big smile on his face: "Well done! It's a pity that it's not sold by "God's Tomb" or "I Want to Become an Immortal", but it's still well done!"

He felt that this was not only the achievement of Zhongyuan Yidianhui, but also the achievement of their new-style novels.

Yes, he has defined the type of novel written by Zhongyuan Yidianhui as a new-style novel.

Used to distinguish the old-style martial arts novels written by Jin Yong, Gu Long, Huang Yi and others.

……

Of course, some people are unhappy to see Zhongyuan Yidianhui become so popular and make so much money.

For example: Huang Shuren.

That evening, when he saw in the news that the film and television adaptation rights of Cao Sheng's book were sold for one million, his face turned very dark.

This kid has no moral principles and made random comments on his work.

He was brought to ruin. Now when he walked out of the house, the girls and young wives in the neighborhood looked at him with wariness and most of them stayed away from him.

The most annoying thing is that some middle-aged women in their fifties and sixties would actually run away when they saw him, as if they were afraid that he would target them.

It really pissed him off.

What was reported in the news was his previous criticism of Cao Sheng's "Living with the Air Hostess".

This book, in which he previously criticized Cao Sheng for not studying hard in college, living with a flight attendant, and even writing this miserable thing into a novel, has now sold for 100 million in copyright fees.

He felt like the news was a slap in the face.

Very angry!
He felt even more embarrassed when he thought about how he had previously criticized Cao Sheng for being a college idiot who couldn't even get into college.

The higher Cao Sheng's achievements, the more ridiculous his previous criticisms seemed.

In front of the TV, Huang Shuren watched the news reports coldly.

As he watched, his heart suddenly moved.

The more I think about it, the brighter my eyes become.

Suddenly he stood up and walked to the landline phone, picked up the phone and called a reporter he knew from the past.

He came up with a good idea to ruin Cao Sheng's reputation.

……

Huizhou.

In Cao Sheng's courtyard, that evening, Huang Qingya came again.

This time she brought some braised dishes, including pig head, pig ears, roast duck, braised dried meat, etc.

Not only did she bring food, she also brought a pair of black stockings. Cao Sheng had mentioned it several times before, but she always felt it was too embarrassing and did not agree.

But today she took the initiative to bring one over.

The reason was: "Millionaire, great writer Cao, I'm here to help you celebrate. Look! I bought so many stewed dishes for you. Let's have a couple of drinks tonight!"

When Cao Sheng came home from school, he saw her and the several dishes of braised food already placed on the table, and he felt a little touched.

Although many classmates and teachers congratulated him in the past two days.

But without someone to share this achievement with, I always feel like something is missing.

And now Huang Qingya's arrival made up for the regret in his heart.

He smiled and said nothing, but walked forward and held her in his arms. For the first time, he didn't kiss her on the mouth, but on her forehead.

Huang Qingya looked at him with a little surprise. She felt that Cao Sheng seemed to treat her a little differently than before.

Seeing her reaction, Cao Sheng smiled and didn't say much. Instead, he gestured to the dining table, "Sit down! What kind of wine would you like to drink tonight? I'll get it!"

Huang Qingya walked over and sat down with a dazed look on her face, and said casually, "Whatever! Just take whatever you want to drink!"

After drinking, she said she wanted to take a shower and went into the bathroom with a change of clothes.

When she came out again, she was already wearing the black stockings.

He said to Cao Sheng who was looking at him in surprise, "It's up to you tonight. What are you waiting for?"

Cao Sheng suddenly liked the word "casual".

He used to hate these two words.

Because in the past, when he was dating a woman, every time he asked her what she wanted to eat or where she wanted to go, he hated to hear her say, "Whatever!"

Because what they said was casual was actually not casual at all.

He clearly said it was up to them, but no matter what he said to eat or where to go, they were not satisfied.

And tonight, he felt casual was fine!
Very nice!
