After the college entrance exam, he began to become a male god of extraction.

After returning home.

Xu Qin went to the gym immediately.

The characteristic of being "full of energy" did indeed make him feel some obvious changes in his body.

Xu Qin decided to verify it.

"The power has indeed increased somewhat."

Previously, Xu Qin found it somewhat difficult to lift 30-kilogram dumbbells.

But now, Xu Qin clearly feels that it is not as strenuous as before, and it is much easier.

"Endurance has also improved!"

"I can do 200 push-ups in one go without even feeling out of breath. Now I feel like I can do 300 or 400 in a row? Before, I would be out of breath after 50 or 60. I would have to break up 300 into smaller ones."

Xu Qin had been doing crunches and push-ups for three years straight, so he knew exactly when he would feel tired.

Now, thanks to the effect of "full of energy", Xu Qin's overall physical fitness has improved significantly.

It's not a qualitative leap, but the improvement is visible.

For example, Xu Qin can finally lift over 100 kilograms in the bench press.

I can do four in one go.

Fitness enthusiasts know that bench pressing 100 kilograms is something only a very small number of people can do in a gym.

"Xu Qin, be careful what you do!"

The mother who came in to call Xu Qin for dinner was somewhat apprehensive.

Because in the gym, the bench press is one of the most dangerous exercises that can easily lead to death.

If a barbell weighing 100 kilograms or more were to come down on you, your neck would either break on the spot or you would suffocate to death if no one noticed, or your sternum would be crushed and your internal organs would be punctured.

"It's alright, I know what I'm doing, and besides, I'm terrified of dying," Xu Qin said with a smile, quite excited.

"If you're afraid of dying, why would you do that? You already have such a great figure."

Xu Qin's mother knew, of course, that he had abs.

In my mother's opinion, a man with abs is in good shape.

She works at the procuratorate, where nine out of ten men, especially those in their thirties, are pot-bellied and have to loosen their belts before sitting down, otherwise they are uncomfortable.

Of course, this is not just the case in the procuratorate; it is the same in the whole society. After the age of thirty, both men and women generally begin to decline in their physical condition, and for men, this manifests as a growing belly and an increasingly greasy overall appearance.

"I'm aiming for an even better figure!"

"Alright, let's come out and eat."

"Okay."

After eating, Xu Qin washed up and then spent another two hours typing.

With this word count update, the book "New City Year One" has officially surpassed 200,000 words.

Originally, Xu Qin's idea was to write 200,000 words for this book.

There's clearly no sign of stopping yet.

Xu Qin estimates that the book will eventually reach 300,000 words.

Collections: 182369.

Comments: 16954.

After a period of development, the overall data has become quite impressive.

This is a very high-energy start for a newcomer who is generating electricity for free.

Donations: 38642 yuan.

Xu Qin had checked beforehand and found that the tips given in the forum's literature section were calculated according to the royalty tax, which deducted 11.2%. So, to date, Xu Qin could only receive more than 34,000 yuan.

By the end of this month, Xu Qin might be able to get fifty or sixty thousand.

"Is someone interested in collaborating with me on copyright matters?"

Xu Qin has a habit of clearing backend messages every day.

At this moment, Xu Qin noticed that one of the messages was sent by someone named "Yuanfang".

This message comes from copyright cooperation channels. The forum has partnerships with major publishing houses and some film, animation and other media companies, which can contact the author through specific channels.

Yuanfang: "Hello author, I'm Li Yue, the copyright manager from Xinyue Media. Our company sees the potential in your work, and I'm wondering if you'd be interested in a copyright collaboration with us?"

Xu Qin did not reply immediately, but first checked the name of Xinyue Media and found that the company did exist.

Xinyue Media is a medium-sized cultural media company, mainly responsible for the creation of film, animation and short dramas.

In this forum, generally speaking, large cultural media companies and publishing houses monopolize all the works of major writers.

Some great authors sell the copyright of their books as soon as the title is decided, before they've even written a single word. Perhaps it's a major publishing house or a large film and television company that gets it.

Little-known companies like Xu Qin, who are relatively unknown, connect with small and medium-sized companies (including publishing houses).

Conversely, small and medium-sized companies also cannot contact famous writers because they cannot afford their prices.

The copyright price of Chiyu Forum is recorded at 70 million, and that's not even for a single license.

Because a great writer owns full copyright, meaning all copyrights belong to him, he can collaborate with any company in the relevant field within the scope permitted by law.

Seeing that the company owns its own copyright, Xu Qin couldn't help but feel excited.

If it weren't for the donations, he would be generating electricity purely out of love, and he would even have to pay for the electricity himself.

The current copyright cooperation means that the copyright of his book will be managed, and he will be able to receive a portion of the money.

That's the theory.

Xu Qin replied to Li Yue: "Hello, how about the price?"

It was already 10 p.m., and Xu Qin didn't expect a reply from the other party.

To Xu Qin's surprise, the other party replied a few minutes later.

Li Yue: "We plan to buy out all the copyrights to your work 'New City Year One' for 50,000 yuan."

Li Yue: "Writer, what do you think?"

fifty thousand?

Buy out all copyrights?

Xu Qin was stunned when he saw these words.

This would probably make even capitalists weep.

Xu Qin: "You'll get the entire copyright to my book for 50,000?"

It's not that Xu Qin is arrogant, but his book is really well written. Moreover, he has a pendant, so he writes better every day. It is definitely a work of above-average quality.

Right now, someone's offering to buy all the copyrights for 50,000?

What do these copyrights include?

Publishing, film and television, animation, comics, etc.

Fifty thousand is all you're going to do?

"Young Master Xu, other new writers might not be able to get this price. I think your book is quite good, so I'm giving you a high price. If it's suitable, we can arrange a meeting to discuss it further and then sign a contract."

Li Yue sent the message.

In recent years, he has acquired a lot of books by mid- to low-level creators at low prices on the forum, and he has basically obtained full copyrights for them.

The subsequent benefits for the company and him personally were naturally very considerable, and one of his books even became a minor hit.

The book gradually brought in more than 30 million yuan in revenue for the company, but he only spent 20,000 yuan to buy the entire copyright.

In fact, many mid- to low-level creators on the forum can have all their work taken over by spending a small amount of money.

As for the subsequent profits, even if the copyright is worth hundreds of millions, it has nothing to do with them.

Moreover, many companies operate this way on literary forums, and countless ordinary authors are brutally killed.

Li Yue estimates that the value of Mr. Xu's book through subsequent copyright operations will not be less than 50 million!

This author's overall creative level is quite high, but he is currently unknown and is in the stage of having his unpolished gems hidden in the dust.

But precisely because they are relatively unknown, they are easier to manipulate.

As the ancients said, "No merchant is without cunning."

Li Yue was immediately captivated when he saw this book today.

Seeing that Mr. Xu seemed to be a soon-to-be college student, she became even more impatient and just wanted to win him over as soon as possible.

These young people are actually the easiest to fool; tens of thousands of yuan is a huge sum of money for them.

By the time they realize what's happening, the contract is already signed. If they're not happy, go to court and see who wins.

buzzing...

Xu Qin replied.

Li Yue immediately looked at the screen.

Xu Qin: "You son of a bitch, eat shit!" (Cantonese)
