Chapter 145: Nouveau Riche!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Oh my, such a good price. A million per month isn’t a small amount! Previously, our website was only sold for 2,400,000 yuan. Now, a month’s advertisement is worth one million, but he actually rejected it... Yang Zhiqi felt depressed. But even though this was what he thought, he didn’t dare to say it. In the end, he only helplessly said, “OK. Currently, I don’t have any more good news. Do you have any orders, Young Master...”

Hong Dali nodded and said, “Yup. Oh, speaking of which, that five are Great God-level authors now, right? It should be quite interesting meeting them. Let’s do this. Organize an end-year meeting for Zhong Dian this week. Find a good time and ask those authors with good results to attend!”

He thought for a while and added, “Those who are qualified to attend will have their expenses reimbursed. Also, we will give them Chu Zhongqin or Jiang Ruoyu’s autograph! Yup, there’s also photo-taking with them too.”

“OK, I understand!” Upon hearing Hong Dali’s suggestion, Yang Zhiqi’s eyes lit-up.

This idea of organizing a year-end meeting for authors was really good. This could not only increase the interaction between authors and editors but was also a great gimmick! Those who attended could even get this year’s most popular celebrity’s autograph and take pictures with them—this was basically a gift from the heavens!

Thinking of this, Yang Zhiqi totally kneeled down to Hong Dali. “Young Master, I’m fully impressed with your idea!”

...

Over the next few days, along with “I Am a Singer” and Unexpectedly!’ s popularity, the entire online literature industry was in an uproar!

Speaking of which, those online bookstores that expanded to a certain extent all had annual meetings to boost the relationships between established authors and the bookstore, and also to increase interaction between them as well. There was nothing much in this actually, but along with the news released from Zhong Dian, the whole online literature industry was astonished.

The legendary secretive Young Master would be appearing on Zhong Dian’s annual meeting! They could obtain rewards from him! Although the money might not be a lot, the most important thing was the power of the Young Master himself! As long as Young Master took a liking to them, they would become the sixth Great God in the Zhong Dian website!

Truly a Great God who could earn over a million a year!

Not only that, those who attended the meeting could also obtain the autograph and take a picture with the current top celebrity!

Picture taking and autograph! They were all authors who wrote s, how could they not be familiar with the standard methods used in their s? A poor writer met with the current most popular celebrity due to destiny and fate, fell in love, got a promotion, became a CEO, married the celebrity, and attained the pinnacle of life. Thinking about this, wouldn’t they become agitated?

Therefore, Zhong Dian’s first annual meeting after was convened in a blaze. It was only the second day after Hong Dali’s inspection of Zhong Dian, 2:00 PM on Saturday.

When Hong Dali brought Tang Muxin, his nine lackeys, Li Nianwei, Zhang Cai, Chu Zhongqin, Jiang Ruoyu, and the rest to the venue and entered, Director Yang Zhiqi instantly shouted, “Young Master has arrived!” His voice was so high-pitched that it sounded like a eunuch’s.

“Greetings, Young Master!” Once they entered, the five Great Gods of Zhong Dian website stood in front. Front left to right were respectively: Dark Dragon of the Universe, Drunk Venom, Ultimate Sky Limit, Treasure Slayer, and Smile of the Vagrant. At their back was the other smaller gods of Zhong Dian website, and behind them was the staff of Zhong Dian website.

From this arrangement, one could tell that Yang Zhiqi did indeed spend a lot of effort.

It wasn’t difficult for the staff from Zhong Dian website to see Hong Dali. Therefore, there was no need for them to steal this opportunity from the authors.

As for these authors, being able to be the first to see Hong Dali would definitely make them touched. Once they were touched, it would be difficult for the people from other online bookstores to snatch them away—with Young Master Dali, this God of Fortune here, the authors would only join other online bookstores if their heads were kicked by a donkey.

“Oh my, hello, hello, everyone!” Once Hong Dali entered the room, he raised his right hand up high, like the head of the Nazis. “Reward! Everyone 2,000!”

Then, the various authors saw what exuberance really meant—the male lackey behind Hong Dali immediately carried forth a gigantic chest. Once it was opened, they could see 100 yuan stacks of valued cash piled inside. Then, two female lackeys each carried a cash counting machine and came up...

Swisssh— The entire lounge was filled with the sound of the cash counting machines counting money. There were at least 200 plus authors who attended the meeting—2,000 yuan per person would add up to 400,000 in total. Plus those employees, at least 500,000 were given out just like that...

“Thank you, my Lord!” The authors all kneed down, totally conquered by him.

What was called a nouveau riche? This was what a true nouveau riche was like! Just tips alone were worth 500,000. He gave it away without even batting an eye!

After finishing tipping everyone, Hong Dali laughed cheerfully and walked up and shook hands with everyone. “Oh my, you must be Dark Dragon of the Universe? Not bad, not bad, your ‘God Slayer’ was quite entertaining!”

Dark Dragon of the Universe didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Young... Young Master, my is ‘Endless Universe’...”

“It’s same, it’s same, hahaha!” Hong Dali normally didn’t remember the author of the s that he read. Thus, he made such a mistake right at the start. Even with his thick skin, he couldn’t help but blush. “It’s quite well-written! Reward, 10,000!”

A male lackey instantly placed a stack of cash in Dark Dragon of the Universe’s hands.

Hong Dali didn’t forget to remind: “Everyone, remember. This guy is a nouveau riche! Later, remember to ask him to treat you all to a big health care ¹ later!”

“Sure!” Everyone replied.

Tang Muxin lightly pulled on Hong Dali’s sleeve and softly asked, “Dali, what does big health care mean?”

“Big health care means...” Hong Dali’s head was full of sweat. “It refers to a high-quality health care center!” Seeing that Tang Muxin was going to ask further, Hong Dali hurriedly shook the next person’s hand. “Oh my, you must be Drunk Venom. Your is really well written—my favorite thing to do in class is to read your . It helps to lighten my spirits! Reward!”

Another 10,000 yuan.

And so, he shook five person’s hands, giving out 50,000 in total...

The other authors were all envious and jealous, but there was nothing they could do. These five author’s s were really well-written. In just a months’ time, the bookmarks for their s all exceeded 100,000, and the number of orders per chapter ² exceeded 20,000. They were well liked by readers. The other authors really had to admit that these five people deserved this treatment.

After all the authors had shaken hands with Hong Dali, it was time for his speech.

Then, Hong Dali went on stage and spoke a single sentence, “Today, you guys have come to my territory. I have nothing much to say but for you all to enjoy yourself tonight. Everything is on me!” Then, he went down the stage.

The sound of applause erupted from below.

Probably since the history of applauding, this was the loudest. Quite a number of people’s hands were red from clapping, truly meaning it... Speaking of which, if you saw the God of Fortune standing in front of you in real life and talking to you in such a manner, you would definitely clap till your hands were red too!

For the remaining time, the editors and authors interacted with each other and improved their relationship. Li Nianwei, Chu Zhongqin, Jiang Ruoyu, and the other celebrities give out autographs and took pictures with them—since the first performance of ‘I Am a Singer’ had finished, Jiang Ruoyu resolutely signed a ten-year contract with Caiwei Entertainment, preparing to root herself here for good.

Next was the speech by Director Yang Zhiqi, then Director Zhang Wenyang, then the Chief Editor...

But there was a common characteristic—their speeches were all very short. It could even be said that they only used a few breaths of time to finish them. Then, all that was left to do was to celebrate and enjoy.

Out of those speeches, Zhang Wenyang’s was the most unique. “At the start, we were making all kinds of loss due to advertising. Now, other people came to advertise on our website, but what did our Young Master do? He directly rejected! Using his words, he’s using this website to squander, not to earn money. Yet, in the end, all of the advertisements ended up in Turkey Bookstore. At that time, they laughed at us for being prodigal. Now, look again. A lot of famous authors came to our website because of the high reward and payout. As for Turkey Bookstore, because they had too many advertisements, the readers couldn’t stand it and came to us.”

“Now, Turkey Bookstore lost a lot of site traffic while our website’s site traffic shoot up like a rocket. What is this called? One sentence from Young Master is worth more than a 100,000 strong army!”

...

In the next few days, the entire online literature industry erupted!

Other bookstore’s author’s group chat—

Author one: “Have you guys seem the annual meeting for Zhong Dian website? It was totally amazing, wasn’t it! Damn it, they directly carried over a chest of cash to give out tips for everyone!”

Author two: “I saw it, I saw it. Those images are too classic. What the heck, Young Master’s back view was too handsome to watch!”

Author three: “Are you guys for real? I have only heard of it. Does any of you have a picture for me to see?”

Author two sent over a photograph.

Author three: “What the heck, this is totally a God-level nouveau riche, a battle-level nouveau riche amongst the God-level nouveau riches!” action

Author four: “You guys actually have the leisure to chat here. Shouldn’t you guys hurry over there to start a new , what are you guys waiting for?”

Author one to hundred: “I almost forgot till you mentioned it. This can’t wait, let’s go, let’s go now!”

Turkey Bookstore reader’s chat group—

Reader one: “What shit is this? This stupid website’s advertisements are getting more and more. Just this while, seven to eight advertisements have popped up. How are we supposed to read like this!?”

Reader two: “Who still reads at Turkey now, everyone has gone over to Zhong Dian. You guys haven’t seen their annual meeting photos, right? What the heck, I’m totally envious of them. Even the Goddess Li Nianwei was there! Autographs! Picture-taking together!”

Reader three: “I saw them too, Young Master directly asked his lackeys to bring a chest over to give out tips. It was too amazing to look at, that female lackey even brought two cash-counting machines there!”

Reader: “Those tips are only a little money. You guys don’t know yet, right? Now, on Jian Bao website, the offer for one autograph from Goddess Li Nianwei has reached 50,000 and is still rising!”

Reader three: “50,000?!”

Reader four: “And at this price, there is also no stock! Goddess Li Nianwei’s autograph! Ever since she debuted, has she given anyone signatures? No, right? There are only these 200 plus autographs in the whole world. You can think of its value then.”

Reader two: “Then, the price for her autograph must be incredulous now, right?”

Reader four: “Not only that, do you know what she wrote? She wrote ‘Young Master’s Li Nianwei,’ these seven words!”

Reader three: “Sob sob sob, my Goddess, sob sob sob...”

Reader four: “Stop crying, hurry up and go over there to read their s. I heard that there will be another annual meeting in the next half of the year, and the nouveau riche readers can also go. It’s said that they can obtain Goddess’s autograph too, but this time it will only be her name.”

Reader five: “The nouveau riches can go, too?”

Reader four: “Damn, the big nouveau riche has come! Hurry up and go there to start reading. If you give out enough tips, you can attend the annual meeting, too! The crucial point is that there are more good s there than in Turkey!”

Reader five: “I see. Understood!”
