After everyone was seated, beef and mutton, tripe, yellow throat, clams, shrimp paste, meatballs, etc. were served soon.

Everyone ate and cooked together and picked up chopsticks together.

"Chen Xiaozheng, I heard from Weiwei that you make a lot of money writing novels." Zhu Xiaobei asked curiously while eating the food.

"It's not bad. Now that I've opened this book, I made 30,000 yuan last month, which is not much." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "Hey, this shrimp is ready. Eat it as soon as possible, otherwise you will get old."

"

"Thirty thousand is not much?" Zhang Zhang said in surprise, "Azheng, you are really powerful now."

"Thirty thousand is really not much. Thirty thousand a day is about the same." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said with a smile. Thirty thousand a month is not even a god, at most it can be considered a minor god.

A truly awesome master can earn 30,000 yuan a day and one million yuan in monthly royalties. Including copyright income, his annual income can exceed 100 million yuan. He is still in his early stages, and he is far from getting rich.

"Thirty thousand a day?!" Hearing what he said, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

If you could really make 30,000 a day, you wouldn't even need to go to college.

"Is it difficult to write a novel?" Zhu Xiaobei asked curiously.

She is quite interested in making money.

Xiang Nan smiled.

He knew that Zhu Xiaobei, like him, was a mother and daughter who depended on each other for life.

Her mother sells spicy hotpot at the school gate. She is exposed to wind and sun, and is often chased around by the school security, which is very hard.

Zhu Xiaobei wants to make money and lighten his mother's burden. This is a normal mentality and is very valuable.

"I can't explain it in just a few words." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "In short, it's difficult for those who don't know it, but it's not difficult for those who know it. Well, if you are interested, I will tell you slowly when I find time."

Writing novels really depends on talent. There are many writers who can barely make ends meet after writing seven or eight books in a row. But talented writers can become gods with just one book. Some writers are still in junior high school or high school.

The writing is already very good.

Of course, if Zhu Xiaobei really wants to try it, then under his guidance, earning living expenses will not be a problem. After all, online novels have certain routines. If you write according to the routine, it will definitely be enough to earn pocket money every month.

"Okay, let me thank you first." Zhu Xiaobei said happily after hearing this.

"You're welcome." Xiang Nan smiled.

…

While eating, Xiang Nan's cell phone rang.

"Hey, these beef balls are almost cooked, you should think about eating them~" he said hurriedly.

"Azheng, let me answer the call for you." Zheng Wei picked up the phone and said.

Xiang Nan nodded.

He told people everything he wanted to say. There was nothing fishy on his phone, and he was not afraid of Zheng Wei checking up on him.

Zheng Wei immediately picked up the phone and walked out, "Hello, how are you?"

After a while, Zheng Wei walked over and said with a surprised look, "Ah Zheng, I'm from Tsui Hark Film Studio and I want to buy the rights to your "Detective Dee" series."

Plop! Plop! Oops!

Li Weijuan just picked up a beef ball and it fell back into the pot with a pop.

Zhu Xiaobei's chopsticks slipped and fell to the ground.

He opened the cup without holding it firmly, and the beer poured onto his chest.

Xiang Nan was stunned for a moment, then stood up with a smile and took the phone, "Hello, hello, I'm Chen Xiaozheng~"

"Wei Wei, is this really Tsui Hark Film Studio?!" Zhu Xiaobei asked in surprise after Xiang Nan left.

"What is Director Tsui Hark asking Ah Zheng for? What else is there for the rights to the "Detective Dee" series?" Zhang Zhang asked in confusion.

"I'm not too sure. It seems that Ah Zheng wrote a novel that suited Director Tsui Hark's liking, so he wanted to buy it and turn it into a movie." Zheng Wei explained.

"w-h-a-t?!!" He said it in one sentence, and everyone in the audience was shocked.

Director Tsui Hark is a famous director in Hong Kong. "A Chinese Ghost Story", "The Swordsman", "Once Upon a Time in Heaven", "The Legend of Shushan", "New Dragon Inn"... these are all classics.

And they, college students, grew up watching Hong Kong films when they were young. Naturally, they admire this Hong Kong director even more. When they learned that Xiang Nan wanted to cooperate with him, they were really shocked and envious.

"Really or not?!", "Cooperating with director Tsui Hark?", "Can I ask him to get an autograph?" Everyone chirped, thinking this was incredible.

One is a well-known Hong Kong director, and the other is an ordinary college student from the Mainland. No one could have imagined that there would be intersections between them. It is really surprising.

…

After Xiang Nan answered the phone, he went outside the store to answer it and quickly understood it.

It turned out that Tsui Hark had been planning to film "Detective Detective of the Tang Dynasty" the year before last, but he had written more than a dozen versions of the script but it still didn't work.

When they were in trouble, the staff of the film studio saw Xiang Nan's "Di Renjie" series of novels serialized in "Legends of Modern and Ancient Times: Martial Arts Edition".

Because the novel is well written, integrating various elements such as detective work, action, palace battles, spiritual fantasy, and supernatural beings into one, with magnificent imagination and majestic scenes, the studio feels like it is a treasure.

After showing it to Tsui Hark, he was very satisfied and decided to buy the copyright.

"Mr. Chen, if you are willing to sell, we will send someone to talk to you immediately." The staff said with a smile.

"Of course, Director Xu is my idol. It's an honor for me that he likes my work." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "I am very happy to cooperate with him."

"Thank you. Then we will send someone to interview you right away," the staff member said.

"Okay, then I'll wait for your arrival." Xiang Nan nodded.

…

When Xiang Nan hung up the phone and returned to the private room, he found that everyone looked at him and there was something wrong.

Each of them glowed with thieves, as if they were going to eat him.

"Ah Zheng, Tsui Hark really likes your novel?"

"Azheng, what exactly is your novel about?"

"Classmate Chen, when you see Tsui Hark, can you help me get an autograph?"

Everyone asked questions, all extremely curious about this.

"That's enough, that's enough." Xiang Nan quickly waved his hands and said, "How could a person as big as Director Xu personally take action? They just sent staff to contact me.

Moreover, movies are not made just as soon as they are made. Hollywood sells hundreds of thousands of scripts a year, but only one in a thousand scripts will eventually be made into a movie.

So, don’t put too much hope in me. Maybe people just think the story is pretty good and want to buy it for their own storage. It’s not as high-end as you think.”

After hearing what he said, everyone's enthusiasm subsided slightly.

"Anyway, this is already amazing."

"Yes, Director Xu's vision is so high. It would be great to be favored by him."

"Azheng, you are so awesome! I am proud of you and give you a toast!"

Everyone toasted in celebration.
