After listening to Chen Yiyi's inner monologue, Chen Shu finally understood why the other party had always been against him all these years.

I also understood why I couldn't find any evidence of bullying Chen Yiyi in my memory.

It turned out that it was not Chen Shuren's memory that was biased, but that what caused Chen Yiyi to behave like this was not something that happened on the surface.

The key figure in this is not even Chen Shuren but Chen Yiyi, but... Pei Shiting!

Before Pei Shiting appeared in front of Chen Shuren, Chen Yiyi and Chen Shuren had a very good relationship. Almost wherever Chen Shuren was, Chen Yiyi would be there.

But ever since Pei Shiting appeared and Chen Shuren was attracted, problems arose in the relationship between the brother and sister.

Chen Shuren is not a comprehensive person, so after being attracted by Pei Shiting, he paid much less attention to Chen Yiyi.

Even many times, when Chen Shuren only had one good thing to share, he would give it to Pei Shiting instead of his sister.

This is why Chen Shuren said, "Damn it."

With a sigh, Chen Shuren held the record player and walked towards the second floor.

"Yiyi, open the door."

Chen Shuren held something in both hands and could only call the door.

But after waiting for a long time, there was no movement inside, so Chen Shuren could only speak again.

"Yiyi, I can't hold it anymore. This thing is precious, and it might be wrong if I drop it..."

"Click!"

Before Chen Shuren finished speaking, the pink door was opened, and Chen Yiyi walked out of it expressionlessly, reaching out to hold the record player.

"Huh? Don't move. It's quite heavy. I'll carry it in for you."

After Chen Shuren finished speaking, he did not walk in, but looked at Chen Yiyi.

Seeing Chen Shuren's well-behaved look, Chen Yiyi hesitated for a while, then turned around and pushed the door open.

"come in."

Chen Shuren raised his eyebrows and thought, "Good sign"!

After entering Chen Yiyi's room, Chen Shuren discovered that his sister's room was very rich in content.

The bookshelves were filled with books. The hanging cabinet was larger than Chen Shuren’s and contained more things. Chen Shuren also saw a grid of vinyl records!

In fact, the four rooms in the Chen family have similar styles, including bookshelves, suspended cabinets, beds, wardrobes, etc., but they were later modified according to personal needs.

Like my younger brother Chen Tianran, there are no bookshelves in his room at all!

No wonder I want a record player, He Zuozhu has already accumulated so many records!

But doesn’t she have a lot of money? Why not buy one yourself?

"Put it here!"

Chen Yiyi interrupted Chen Shuren's thoughts and pointed to a short cabinet and said to him.

"good."

After Chen Shuren put the record player on, he was about to ask if he needed to install it when he heard Chen Yiyi say: "You can go out, I will do it myself later."

"Okay, then I'm leaving."

Chen Shuren didn't hesitate, turned around and left, closing the door behind him.

But when he closed the door, he heard a very soft voice coming from the room.

"Thank you...brother."

On the fourth day after returning home, Chen Shuren finished breakfast and was about to lie down on the sofa and read the news, when editor Liu Huo sent him a message on WeChat.

"Mu Da, I have something to ask you."

"What's up?"

Chen Shuren replied.

"I see that Gui Chui Deng has updated 600,000 words. I don't know what the follow-up content will be. Have you finished writing it?"

"It's already written."

"That's great, that's it. Our Lingdian Literature has a physical book publishing plan. Our publishing department is very interested in your book. I wonder what Mu Daqian thinks?"

Chen Shuren was deceived by Liu Huo's words. Publishing? He doesn't understand. What can he think about this matter?

However, out of respect for Daxia Coin, Chen Shuren felt that he still had to understand this matter.

"I know about this. I'll give you a reply after I think about it."

"Okay, Namu Da, I will first send you the relevant introduction to published books from the publishing department, so you can understand first."

"good."

Later, Chen Shuren read some documents sent by Liu Huo.

Similar to Tianyu’s song income, there are two modes provided to him, buyout and share.

The buyout will be calculated based on the income of the first month after the completion of the novel

The share is 5% to 15% of the book's price. The specific share needs to be negotiated and the final income is calculated based on sales.

For example, Chen Shuren's share is 10%, and Ghost Blowing Lamp is priced at 50 yuan a copy. Then for every copy sold, Chen Shuren earns 5 Daxia coins.

Only if the book is sold for more than 800,000 yuan, the income from the share will exceed the income from the buyout.

So whether you should choose a buyout or a share, you have to choose carefully.

After all, if there is a slight mistake, it will be a loss of millions.

Thinking of this, Chen Shuren dug out his cell phone address book, found the number named Eldest Sister, and dialed it.

Chen Shuren’s eldest sister is Chen Shuangxue, who is six years older than him and has been working for two years.

Her job is to be an editor in a traditional publishing house.

There is no one better to ask about this than her.

The phone rang three times before being picked up.

"Treant? What's the matter?"

Hearing the capable voice on the other end of the microphone, Chen Shuren couldn't help but change from lying to sitting.

"Sister, are you busy now? I need to consult you if I have something."

"...I'm not busy, just tell me."

"It's like this. A friend of mine writes a novel and wants to publish a physical book. He doesn't know whether to buy it out or share it."

Chen Shuangxue was silent for a while, and then said: "I won't talk about the buyout. Your friend knows the specific amount. What he is struggling with should be whether to take a gamble and get a share of it, right?"

"……right."

Chen Shuren answered honestly.

"I advise you not to get too involved in this kind of thing. I can give you suggestions, but let your friend choose the specific conclusion."

"good."

"The split does sound like a gamble, but if you know the sales volume of physical books in recent years, you won't be too entangled."

"Our Qingzhou is not a place where novel literature flourishes. It can only be said to be average among the thirteen states of Daxia. In recent years, Qingzhou has a lot of emerging online literature. Once this kind of thing appears, the sales of physical books will increase. It caused a certain impact.”

"In the past three years, there have been only three books in the physical book industry that have sold more than one million copies, two of which were published online novels and one was a traditional literature."

"In addition, there are only about a dozen physical books in the range of 500,000 to 1 million copies. So, you understand, right? If you are not the leading author, then don't expect too much to be able to share the profits. Take advantage of it."

After listening to this, Chen Shuren finally had some ideas in his mind.

"Okay, I understand, thank you sister."

"Well, it's okay. Are you back home?"

"Yes, I've been back for a few days. When will you be back, sister?"

"In two days."

"Okay, see you then, I'm hanging up."
