Back to 1997, I became the originator of online literature

Chapter 485 Advice? You're just a college student!

"I'll take a call."

Cao Sheng answered the call while speaking to Huang Qingya, leaving Huang Qingya speechless as she waited for his reply.

Cao Sheng: "Hello?"

Dong Qianyu's voice came from the phone, "Chairman Cao, hello! This is Dong Qianyu from Tencent's publicity department. Do you remember me? I was the one who led the team to Huizhou a few days ago to help you shoot QQ ads. Do you still remember me?"

On the phone, Dong Qianyu's tone was respectful.

Cao Sheng: "I remember, Miss Dong called me about something?"

Huang Qingya glanced at Cao Sheng, somewhat suspicious of the "Miss Dong" Cao Sheng mentioned. Who was this Miss Dong to him? Was she a beautiful new acquaintance?
Dong Qianyu: "Um, Mr. Cao, I wanted to ask when your new book will be published? We'd like to help you promote it. Could you give me a date?"

Cao Sheng chuckled.

I thought to myself: When Dong Qianyu came to Huizhou last time, she asked me when I would publish my new book. How many days has it been? Why is she calling to ask again?

Last time she said she was asking on behalf of Ma Huateng, so what about this time?
You're probably asking on behalf of Ma Huateng, right?
Cao Sheng's mind raced, and he guessed the truth, but he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he said, "It should be about half a month from now."

He paused, then asked, "By the way, when will the QQ group feature you're developing be available? I hope it will be officially launched by the time my new book is published, so that it can have the best promotional effect, right?"

Dong Qianyu: "Oh, I see. Our technical department has actually developed the QQ group function and is currently conducting internal testing. It should be officially launched in about a week. Chairman Cao, do you think we should postpone the launch of this function? I can suggest to General Manager Ma that the QQ group function be launched simultaneously with the publication of your new book."

Cao Sheng thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay!"

Dong Qianyu: "Okay, if Mr. Ma agrees, I'll call you again?"

Cao Sheng hummed in agreement again.

call ended.

Cao Sheng casually placed his phone on the dining table and reached for some food with his chopsticks.

Huang Qingya coughed lightly, drawing Cao Sheng's attention. She frowned and asked, "Are you publishing a new book again? Didn't you just publish 'The Romance of Chinese Martial Arts' not long ago? That book did very well, didn't it? Why are you publishing a new book so soon?"

Cao Sheng smiled faintly and casually explained, "This was one of the conditions for my investment in Tencent. I had to write a book to promote their products. The CEO of this company is an impatient person and was pushing me very hard, so I had no choice but to try running two accounts simultaneously."

Huang Qingya frowned even more as she listened.

After staring at Cao Sheng for a while, he couldn't help but say, "Cao Sheng! You're a novelist, and it's not easy for you to make money. Why do you always have to make all sorts of investments? I didn't say anything when you invested in real estate, buying shops and residential buildings. After all, whether it's a shop or a residential building, you can rent it out and receive a lot of rent every year. You shouldn't lose money."

But now you're investing in internet companies one after another. What are you thinking? Do you think that just because you're good at writing novels and screenplays, you're good at everything? Have you forgotten that your first degree is only a junior college diploma? Have you ever considered that you're not cut out for business?

If Cao Sheng weren't a reincarnated person, but just a young man in his early twenties, he would most likely be furious upon hearing Huang Qingya's words.

He might even lose his temper on the spot.

But he is a reborn person.

He is only young in body; psychologically, he is still that middle-aged man.

Therefore, Huang Qingya's words did not provoke his anger. He was not only not angry, but also couldn't help but chuckle twice, looked at Huang Qingya with a smile, and said, "You're right, I will keep it in mind, thank you."

After saying that, he raised his glass in a gesture of greeting and then took a sip of wine.

Huang Qingya rolled her eyes and said irritably, "You didn't listen to my advice at all, did you? Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to make much money writing novels in the future? Do you think you can keep making money like this by writing novels and screenplays? You're making money now, but instead of saving it, you're just investing recklessly based on your own temper. Aren't you afraid that you'll lose everything in the future?"

Cao Sheng never expected that even though they had broken up for so long, she would still care about him so much.

Unfortunately, she was overthinking it.

In their original timelines, both Tencent and Ali were giants in the Chinese internet industry.

If his rebirth and investment cause these two companies to deviate from their original development trajectory and eventually fail, he will accept it.

"Thank you for your advice."

Cao Sheng expressed his gratitude once again.

A smile still lingered on his lips.

Huang Qingya got angry when she saw his indifferent attitude.

Considering that they had broken up a long time ago, she simply stopped trying to persuade them.

I thought to myself: Oh well! This guy became famous and successful at a young age, so it's normal for him to get a little cocky. It seems he won't wake up until he suffers a big fall. I'll see when he does.

With that thought in mind, she picked up her glass with a straight face and said, "Cao Sheng! I wish you great returns on every investment you make, cheers!"

Cao Sheng smiled, picked up the wine bottle, filled his glass, and raised it to clink glasses with her.

In the following period, Huang Qingya no longer advised him to be cautious about investing, nor did she ask him why he hadn't announced their breakup.

He just kept raising his glass to toast him and drink.

As she drank, her cheeks flushed, her fair skin turning rosy, looking like peach blossoms.

Before they knew it, they had finished a bottle of Moutai.

Qin Xiyue, who was in the kitchen, had already gone downstairs.

Only Cao Sheng and Huang Qingya remained on the second floor of the villa.

When Huang Qingya picked up the bottle again to pour more wine, she turned it upside down several times, only to find a few drops had fallen into the glass. She frowned and muttered, "That's it? It's all gone?" Then, she looked up at Cao Sheng, her eyes blurry with drunkenness, and asked, "Can you still drink? Shall we open another bottle?"

Cao Sheng had a better alcohol tolerance than her; at this moment, he was only slightly tipsy, and his eyes were still relatively clear.

Looking at her now, her eyes glazed with drunkenness, he couldn't help but recall the first night they drank together. That night, she was also glazed with drunkenness. She was fine inside the restaurant, but as soon as they stepped outside, the night wind blew, and she became unsteady, unable to stand or walk.

That same night, they slept together for the first time.

Looking back now, everything that happened that night seems like it was just yesterday, still vivid in my mind.

"Stop drinking! That's enough."

He said.

Huang Qingya tilted her head and looked at him, then suddenly smiled, put down the wine bottle, and nodded, "Okay! I'll listen to you."

After saying that, she turned and looked around. Seeing that no one was around, she reached out her left hand, grabbed Cao Sheng's right hand, stood up, and pulled him, "Come on! Let's go into the room! We haven't done 'that' in a long time, hurry up! What are you dawdling for? What are you pretending to be so proper for? Hurry up!"

Cao Sheng: "???"

How did the topic turn to this?
Cao Sheng was pulled up by her, and Huang Qingya, swaying unsteadily, led him towards the bedroom.

Cao Sheng did not resist.

I just felt like laughing.

I also wonder if she has forgotten that they have broken up?

"Pfft..."

In the bedroom.

Huang Qingya pushed Cao Sheng down onto the bed, cupped his face in her hands, and kissed him repeatedly. But... as she kissed him, her eyes became hazy, and the frequency of her kisses decreased. Suddenly, she tilted her head, lay on top of Cao Sheng, and began to snore softly.

Fell asleep?
Cao Sheng was speechless.

Turning to look at her sleeping face, Cao Sheng quietly gazed at her for a long while.

Huang Qingya's figure is his favorite type, and it still is.

He still had feelings for her, and he knew that very well.

He has lived two lives and dated more than a dozen women, but only Huang Qingya made him feel truly compatible.

Other women?

Young women, when dating him, only care about the feeling of being in love. They care about how many gifts he buys them, how many red envelopes he gives them, what delicious food he takes them to, what fun places they go to, etc., without considering whether they want to marry him in the future.

Those older than him are much more pragmatic; they generally won't engage in romantic relationships with him, but will always find ways to get money from him.

Some said they wanted to buy a bag, some said they didn't have a necklace, some said their shop rent was about to expire and they didn't have the money to pay, etc., but their core purpose was the same—to collect his gold coins.

As for those women around his age, some said they weren't a good match after dating him for a while; some were always dissatisfied with his financial situation or his job, acting like they were looking for something better while still employed; and some simply disappeared after dating, unreachable by phone or text, and even changed jobs.

It's fair to say that none of his previous girlfriends made him feel that he was suitable to marry.

Huang Qingya was the only one he ever wanted to marry.

only……

Even after his rebirth, he couldn't protect his own heart.

After spending a long time together, he often felt that Huang Qingya was too career-oriented and not the ideal wife and mother he had been looking for.

Cao Sheng squinted at Huang Qingya's face for a while, sighed softly, and gently pushed her off him. As Huang Qingya rolled onto the bed, she moved her lips and mumbled, "What are you doing? How annoying..."

But his eyes showed no sign of opening.

Cao Sheng smiled, helped her take off her coat, shoes and socks, then got up and went out to fetch a basin of warm water. He then wiped her cheeks, neck and hands, and went out again to fetch another basin of warm water. He then wiped her feet, adjusted her sleeping position, covered her with a thin blanket, and turned off the room light.

Cao Sheng left the bedroom.

A moment later, he brought in another cup of tea, placed it on the bedside table, found her phone, and put it on silent.

He had drunk quite a bit tonight, and he knew he definitely wouldn't be able to write anything.

He wasn't in the bedroom with her.

Instead, he went to the living room sofa, turned on the TV, and half-sat, half-lay down, thinking about how to write the beginning of his new book, "Cultivation Chat Group".
How does the original "Cultivation Chat Group" begin?

Was it written directly from the moment the male protagonist accidentally entered a cultivation chat group?

How should the selling points of the first few chapters be set?

The first chapter should be enough to attract readers by introducing the "cultivation chat group." In this chapter, you can portray three to five members of the group. You shouldn't portray too many characters in one chapter, otherwise readers won't remember them.

Chapter Two... could depict the protagonist's suspicions about the identities of the group members, questioning whether these self-proclaimed cultivators are all a bunch of lunatics.

In the third chapter, following the principle of the "golden three chapters," a bigger suspense should be introduced. For example, a member in the group might say that they are about to undergo a heavenly tribulation, and the location of the tribulation happens to be next to the city where the male protagonist lives, so that the male protagonist can accidentally see the strange phenomena in the sky when this group member undergoes the tribulation.
