At that moment, Ye Mengyao was video-chatting with her friends in a boudoir somewhere in the Soaring Cloud Sect.
"Amazing. This Wu Wudi doesn't appear, but when he does, it's shocking. He actually wrote a book and got so many literary giants to support him. It's really unbelievable."
"According to the news I received, this book has sold more than three million copies."
"Oh my god, more than three million copies. According to the price of this book, it sold for at least three hundred million Universe Credits. That's ridiculous."
"He's just a writer, yet he can earn so much money so easily. We work so hard to kill beasts and adventure in mystic realms, but we might not even earn that much."
"But then again, what exactly did he write? Why is it selling so well?"
Many of her girlfriends were chattering away. They all felt that this matter was too unbelievable. They even wondered if Wu Wudi had placed a vicious curse on the people of the Five Major Star Fields, forcing them to buy the books.
Otherwise, how could the sales be so exaggerated?
"Mengyao, what do you think?"
One of her friends asked.
"This!"
Of course, Ye Mengyao had also received the news. She knew that Wu Wudi's book was selling so well that it caused an uproar in the Five Major Star Fields. Many literary giants had joined forces to recommend this book.
Although she was very reluctant, she still bought the book and read it. She wanted to know what Wu Wudi had written and why so many people admired it.
"It's indeed a very powerful book. No wonder so many people recommended it. I wonder how many people this guy has deceived to write such a book." Although Ye Mengyao was unwilling, she had to admit this.
Even though she was already prepared and thought that Wu Wudi was definitely not a simple liar, she did not expect him to write such a comprehensive collection of deception.
"The highest level of deception is to deceive the heart. As long as you can deceive the heart, you will be successful. This Wu Wudi is indeed a very dangerous guy. " Ye Mengyao looked at the last sentence of the book and remembered what happened in the virtual world. That bastard did not kill her because he wanted to deceive her heart?!
Could it be that the bastard had already targeted her and wanted to deceive her as well?!
Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth in anger. Sure enough, such a dangerous person must not be left alone. Otherwise, who knew how much danger he would cause.
"We must find a way to catch him."
Ye Mengyao clenched her fists. She had made up her mind. No matter what she had to do, she had to find Wu Wudi and bring him to justice. She could not let him get away scot-free.
"But this book is selling so well. Wu Wudi must have become a tycoon."
"I reckon that the final sales volume will reach a terrifying figure. That guy's net worth is at least a few billion Universe Credits."
"My god, the sect's elder's net worth is probably only at this level."
"I wonder if I'll have the chance to catch a man like this. If I can charm him so much that he'll willingly give me money, then I'll be rich."
"Tsk, he's a master of deception. A silly girl like you better not be eaten up by him. When that time comes, you'll run back crying with a big belly and say that he's a scumbag."
"Bullsh * t, this young lady is an outstanding beauty. How could I be deceived by that person? It has always been men who fall in love with me, not me who has been deceived."
A group of close friends chattered.
Ye Mengyao was speechless, but she was determined not to let this group of close friends come into contact with Wu Wudi. Otherwise, according to that swindler's methods, who knew how many Saintesses would lose their virginity.
…
A few days later.
The book "36 Stratagems of Deception" sold like hotcakes in the Five Major Star Fields. Countless people who were interested in it chose to buy it, causing its sales to rise steadily.
One million copies, two million copies, three million copies, and finally, it reached 20 million copies.
Moreover, these were only the figures for the past few days. As time passed, it was believed that the sales figures would continue to rise.
"The sales are too hot."
When Germa heard the sales figures, he felt his heart tremble. He didn't know how long it had been since he saw such hot sales of a book.
Although there were many books in their company that could sell tens of millions of copies, the price of those books was very low, only five Universe Dollars. Even selling tens of millions of copies was nothing.
However, "36 Stratagems of Deception" was different. Its price was too high, reaching 100 Universe Dollars. It was more than 20 times the price of other books. With such a price, the sales volume still reached 20 million copies. The sales volume was too shocking.
Just calculating the sales volume alone, it had already reached 2 billion Universe Dollars. If such a sales volume were to be spread, who knew how many people would be scared to death.
This was the horror of the great writers in the universe. If they published a best-selling book, they would basically not have to worry about food and clothing.
However, the problem was that there were countless people who published books. Who knew how difficult it was to reach tens of millions of sales.
Most people lost everything, and they couldn't even earn back the cost of printing.
"The share is too high."
At this moment, Germa thought of the contract with Xia Ping. His heart ached as if a piece of his flesh had been cut off. According to the agreement in the contract, he needed to give 70% of the profits to Xia Ping, while his company would only get 30%.
In other words, this time, Xia Ping had earned at least 1.4 billion Universe Dollars. As time passed, the money he earned would continue to increase. When the time came, it would not be difficult to earn billions of Universe Dollars.
He regretted it so much that his intestines turned green. If he had known that this book would be so popular, he would never have signed the contract. Because one more percentage point meant tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of Universe Dollars.
Such a huge profit was simply crazy.
However, he thought about it carefully. If he didn't agree to sign the contract, Wu Wudi probably wouldn't agree to cooperate with his company. At that time, his company would lose this golden chicken.
Wu Wudi would also run to a rival company. At that time, it would be too late for regrets.
Although the money he earned now was a little less than he had imagined, it was good enough that he made some money. At least he didn't have to worry about Wu Wudi running to a rival company and affecting the company's interests.
"It seems that according to this year's profit level, I have a chance to be promoted to the head office." Germa was looking forward to it and was full of ambition. He had been in the position of the general manager of the branch company for decades and had been unable to be promoted because of a lack of performance.
Now that he had this book that was popular in the five major star regions and brought huge benefits to the company, he believed that he, Germa, would also be qualified to enter the head office and hold a more important position.
"Right, I have to inform Mr. Wu of this good news as soon as possible."
Germa immediately wanted to contact Xia Ping. A golden chicken like this must be maintained at all times. Otherwise, if the golden chicken ran away, his loss would be great.
Du du ~ ~
However, when he made a call, he couldn't get through.
"What? He's already in seclusion. How long will it take for him to come out?! "
Germa heard the news from Korin. Now that Xia Ping had no time to answer the phone, all external communications were handled by Korin.
"Forget it. I'll deal with this news with him when he comes out of seclusion."
