Evening.
When the spaceship arrived at Tianshui City, it was already evening. The students had already left school, and there was no one in the entire school except for the security guards.
Xia Ping got off the spaceship and went straight back home. Anyway, there was nothing for him to do now. The teachers would naturally arrange for the injured students to be taken care of.
"Hmm?"
When he was halfway there, he found that his phone was vibrating and emitting a notification sound from time to time. It seemed that there was a large amount of information being transmitted.
Before entering the Beast Island trial, his phone was asked to be turned off and was still on the spaceship. Naturally, he had no way of knowing who had contacted him during this time.
"It's Editor Meng Fei?!"
Xia Ping picked up his phone and immediately saw dozens of phone calls and fifteen to sixteen video call requests. The most recent one was even half an hour ago.
"Why are you looking for me in such a hurry? Is something the matter?" He subconsciously clicked on the video call connection.
Beep!
Immediately, the video call was connected, and Editor Meng Fei's figure was immediately projected. The other party revealed a joyful look and said, "I can finally contact you. That's great. Teacher Black Hearted Wolf, where have you been these days? Why can't I contact you? "
"I went to participate in the school trial." Xia Ping briefly explained his whereabouts for the past few days. "By the way, why are you so anxious to contact me? Is there something important?"
"Of course, of course there's something important."
Meng Fei immediately smiled. "Have you forgotten? It's been more than a month, and the royalties for your book have been sent to your bank account. I just wanted to inform you. "
"Congratulations, the novel 'Teacher Bai Rong' has really become very popular this month. I've been in the industry for so many years, but this is the first time I've seen such a grand occasion. It's simply being chased by hundreds of millions of people. "
He sighed repeatedly. No one knew better than him how popular this novel was.
"Very popular?" Xia Ping also knew that his novel was popular, but he didn't have a particularly clear concept.
Seeing Xia Ping's dumbfounded look, Meng Fei said resentfully, "Teacher Black Hearted Wolf, why don't you take a look at how much money you have in your bank account first?"
Hearing this, Xia Ping subconsciously opened his bank account, and suddenly a series of numbers appeared on it. He was also surprised. "No way, more than 50 million federal coins, is this a mistake?"
Seeing the numbers on the bank account, he was also stunned. This was more than 50 million federal coins, a huge sum of money, and it was completely legal.
Unlike the golden potion, red blood fruit, etc., which he had obtained before, although the value was amazing, he couldn't cash it at all, nor could he use it to improve his family's life.
"There's no mistake, it is more than 50 million."
Seeing Xia Ping's surprised look, Meng Fei also smiled, his face revealing an excited expression, "Did you know? This month, the novel 'Teacher Bai Rong' has sold more than four million copies, and the momentum has not slowed down at all. "
"I was wrong before. Not only can this novel sell more than 10 million copies this year, it won't be a problem even if it sells more than 50 million copies. I can even look forward to it selling more than 100 million copies."
If someone had told him a month ago that an erotic novel might sell more than 100 million copies, he wouldn't have believed it. He would have thought that it was bullshit and a fantasy.
But now it was different. This phenomenal erotic novel had broken all sales records and shocked the eyes of countless people.
"100 million?!" Xia Ping's pupils shrank. A novel cost 25 federal coins. If he could sell 100 million copies, according to the 50/50 split, even after deducting taxes, he could still get more than a billion federal coins.
How was this making money? It was clearly robbery. No, even if it was robbery, it wouldn't be so fast. It was estimated that even drug dealers wouldn't have such a huge profit. It was too amazing.
Before, there were top novelists who could earn more than a billion dollars a year. He only saw it as news, but he didn't expect that he was about to step into this ranks and enter the realm of top novelists. This was really incredible.
And this was also a huge sum of money. Han Shan was so arrogant. His family opened a factory with assets of only one billion, and it took him more than 20 years to reach this level.
But Xia Ping only needed one year to surpass the other party's more than 20 years of hard work. If this matter was known, it would definitely be shocking.
"Teacher Black Hearted Wolf, in fact, there is another important thing I want to discuss with you this time." Editor Meng Fei hesitated and said to Xia Ping.
Xia Ping blinked his eyes. "Go ahead, what's the matter?"
"It's like this."
Meng Fei thought about the wording. "Because this novel is too popular, it has also been discovered by people in the film and television industry. A famous director contacted me and said that he wants to adapt this novel into a TV series and make 100 episodes."
Adapted into a TV series?!
Hearing this, the corner of Xia Ping's mouth twitched. This was an erotic novel. How could it be adapted into a TV series and make 100 episodes? It was too exaggerated.
As if seeing Xia Ping's surprised eyes, Meng Fei said, "No, this is not exaggerated at all. Don't underestimate the strength of a screenwriter. Even a pile of shit can add a lot of seasoning to it."
"If it sells very well, not to mention 100 episodes, even 1000 episodes is not a problem."
Xia Ping touched his chin. "What do you think about this?" He wanted to hear the opinion of a professional.
"Promise him."
Meng Fei immediately said, "If a novel is made into a TV series or a movie, it is the best publicity. It will greatly promote the sales of the novel. I think this is a good opportunity."
Xia Ping also admitted this. In his previous life, there was a martial arts master, Jin Yong. It was because his novels were put on the TV screen one by one, which led to a geometric increase in influence.
In terms of publicity alone, the dissemination of TV was not comparable to other media.
It could be imagined that once his novel was made into a TV series, the sales of the novel would explode in an instant. It would not be a problem to sell 100 million copies a year.
In fact, in countries without piracy, such as Japan, even if they lost money, they were willing to make a light novel into an anime, because this could greatly increase the sales of the novel and make money from other places.
Of course, there was no such benefit in places with piracy.
"Well, we can talk about it." Xia Ping nodded.
Meng Fei smiled. "Great, in fact, the director also wants to talk to you about the adaptation. Why don't we set the time for tomorrow morning? Let's have a video call and have a three-party discussion."
He set a time for the discussion.
"Okay."
