Chapter 266: Social Death in Front of the Elders (Part 1)
Ye Zhiqiu had a hard time eating this dinner at Yu's house.
It wasn't because of the atmosphere, but because Liu Wenshu was so enthusiastic. She frequently picked up food for Ye Zhiqiu, saying, "You're welcome, just treat this like home," and "Young people are usually busy, so they should eat more."
Ye Zhiqiu was full from the lunch meal. He sat still at China Central Television in the afternoon and didn't digest much at all. But everyone else put it in the bowl, so he could only open his belly and swallow it down.
Apart from this, the atmosphere of the entire dinner was extremely relaxed, and the conversation was all about household matters. Ye Zhiqiu also breathed a sigh of relief.
After dinner, it was still early, so the four of them moved to the living room and continued chatting over fruits and vegetables.
"That's right!" Liu Wenshu said suddenly, "I almost forgot, the program will be broadcast tonight."
With that said, Liu Wenshu skillfully picked up the remote control and turned on the TV in the living room.
Is this a drama?
Ye Zhiqiu was curious and looked at the TV screen, which was worth a lot of money.
I saw Liu Wenshu skillfully opening a certain TV video app and then clicking on a program.
"Longing for Life"...
Only then did Ye Zhiqiu remember that the program he and Yu Caiwei participated in seemed to be broadcast tonight.
Isn’t it? People of your stature also watch variety shows?!
Ye Zhiqiu was shocked. Thinking of the scene in the show where he and Yu Caiwei were so flirty, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
On TV, the beginning of the program is a segment about making phone calls and "ordering food."
During the show, several guests were chatting in the courtyard. When they talked about Ye Zhiqiu, fan Zhang Feng’s eyes lit up with admiration on her face.
"Haha, Zhiqiu is very popular, every girl likes it." Liu Wenshu said with great interest.
Yu Zhengdao also looked over with unclear eyes.
"..." Ye Zhiqiu did not dare to answer.
During the show, the phone rang, and Liu Dahua volunteered to answer it.
Ye Zhiqiu's voice rang on the phone, and then there was the content of the two people's extremely funny "chicken talking to duck" call. Regarding this joke, Yu Zhengdao, Liu Wenshu and Song Mei thought it was okay, but the barrage at the top of the screen was flying.
"Wow, the program team is very generous and invited these two people over."
"It's unnecessary to speculate on CP. I don't believe these two are not a pair and can be beaten to death!"
"I also think that maybe we have been together for a long time, and we just come here to spread dog food."
"Hahaha, it made me laugh so hard. godusevpn is like a Buddha jumping over the wall. How did the dog author have so much imagination?"
"It's too bad. They actually clicked Buddha and jumped over the wall. Based on the show's crew, they probably had to plow the entire cornfield before they could afford it."
Ye Zhiqiu's face was filled with embarrassment. He never expected that the Yu family and his wife would watch the barrage while watching a variety show.
Ye Zhiqiu didn't dare to think about the possible barrage of trolling netizens at the end of the show.
After the ordering session, at the airport, the program team received a clip of Ye Zhiqiu and Yu Caiwei.
While walking on the road, a book fan jumped out and angrily accused "the dog author is a scumbag", and Ye Zhiqiu and his party left quickly in embarrassment.
It was obvious that many of the viewers watching this program were book fans, and this sentence came out all at once.
"Well done!"
“Refresh on the spot! That’s how it should be!”
"It's okay if you don't say it, but I get angry when you say it! During those two weekends, I thought I could have a good time watching it, but the dog author turned out to be a scumbag!"
"If I were there, I might have gone up and fought with him!"
The barrage at the top of the screen was densely packed, all condemning Ye Zhiqiu. Liu Wenshu exclaimed: "Zhiqiu has many fans."
"By the way, I almost forgot that Zhiqiu has a side job of writing novels. You have to sing and record shows and write novels. Isn't it too hard?"
"It's okay, it's okay." Ye Zhiqiu said quickly.
"Writing novels is not a side job for him."
At this time, Song Mei on the side said, "The physical book of my last work "Zhu Xian" has sold almost 1 million copies. Now Zhi Qiu is a well-known best-selling novelist."
"Maybe in the end his income from writing novels will be compared to his income from singing, which one is the main business and which is the side business?" Song Mei joked.
"Really?" Liu Wenshu was stunned and said: "I think the appearance fees for celebrities to participate in programs and other programs are quite high nowadays? It's not even as good as writing a novel?"
"The income from manuscript fees and physical book sales is only part of it." Ye Zhiqiu explained, "It is mainly IP copyright development, adapting novels into games, TV series, etc."
"How much did the adaptation rights of the book "Zhu Xian" cost?"
Liu Wenshu didn't mean anything else, just out of pure curiosity.
This is nothing to hide, Ye Zhiqiu said: "Now we only sell the game IP copyright to Penguin, 20 million additional share model."
"I will share the revenue with Chengzi Reading Network. If the game development goes smoothly, I will probably get about 100 million."
In fact, Ye Zhiqiu was very conservative. Based on the popularity of the "Zhu Xian" online game in his previous life, he estimated that 100 million a year would be about the same.
What's more, after developing the client game, there are also mobile games...
"Oh." Liu Wenshu nodded. Considering the conditions of the Yu family, she didn't think much of this number, but she still praised her, "Zhiqiu is young and promising."
Song Mei joked: "Singing alone is not enough, plus the income from novels, Zhiqiu, your studio has the highest income in the entire company."
"Studio?" Liu Wenshu, who came from a financial background, was very sensitive to these three words and asked: "Does Zhiqiu have a personal studio? I thought it was directly under the name of Huahai Entertainment."
Song Mei smiled and shook her head, and recounted how Huahai Entertainment competed to sign Ye Zhiqiu.
Liu Wenshu listened with great interest, and even Yu Zhengdao couldn't help but listen attentively.
"Is the studio registered in Huahai?" Yu Zhengdao, who said little during the whole process and silently listened to the chat of several people, suddenly asked.
"No." Ye Zhiqiu said honestly, "The registration place is on the Han River, where I am from."
Yu Zhengdao nodded and said nothing.
The topic of the novel came to an end, but Liu Wenshu's conversation became more and more interesting.
On TV, the program "Longing for Life" showed several people arriving at the mushroom house and going out to break corn.
From then on, Ye Zhiqiu started to show off.
First, he chatted with the village elders, and a lot of rural common sense and IQ were crushed. Then when breaking the corn, no one knew how to do it, and the work was thankless. Ye Zhiqiu taught him step by step...
Liu Wenshu was really surprised this time when she saw Ye Zhiqiu explaining to Yu Caiwei how to break apart to save effort.
"Zhiqiu, have you ever done farm work before? You are very skilled at it."
Yu Zhengdao also looked over in surprise.
Ye Zhiqiu said honestly: "When I was a child, there were fields in the countryside, and I did a little bit of work. Not long after I entered elementary school, the farmland was expropriated."
It's normal for the two of them to feel strange about this. Ye Zhiqiu's skin is fairer. Although he can't say that he has tender skin and tender flesh, if he pretends to be a little girl, he can definitely steal the scenes of 99% of similar stars. He can just sing and write novels.
It’s completely unbelievable that he can even do farm work.
This is a big plus in the eyes of the mother-in-law, and it shows that she is a down-to-earth person!
