Chapter 313 The Influence of the Novel

"Mr. President, how much benefit can half a million tons of grain bring to us! It can even make Jinxing Agricultural Trading a real giant in the grain and oil industry in Hong Kong.

If the loss from selling at half price is too great, we can sell it at the international price and pay at most some shipping costs." Lee Hyori suggested.

"hehe!"

"Manager Li, Blue Star Club Group has just been established. You are all newcomers, so naturally you know nothing about our Blue Star Club Group.

Let me just tell you one thing, the energy of the Blue Star Society is beyond your imagination, and the supplies are also beyond your imagination." Li Wen said in a hoarse voice.

In fact, Li Wen was watching Lee Hyori mentally from another building.

Seeing that Li Xiaoli did not understand what he said and still frowned, Li Wen continued: "Manager Li, our group should not just focus on the interests of Xiangdao, our goal is the stars and the sea.

Just follow my instructions and do your job well.

The current position of chairman of the group is still vacant. The next three years will be a test for your nine managers.

If anyone's performance meets my requirements in the past three years, then he will be the chairman of Blue Star Group."

Li Xiaoli knew that the layout of the group company was huge. If it continued to develop according to this layout, in less than three years, Blue Star Club would become one of the real giants in Hong Kong.

At first, Lee Hyori and other managers thought that the headquarter chairman would be someone sent by the so-called organization as Muyi said, or that the chairman would be the chairman himself.

Unexpectedly, the president dropped such a bombshell today, which suddenly made Lee Hyori obsessed.

“I didn’t expect it, I really didn’t expect it.

I will definitely become the first chairman of the group." Lee Hyori encouraged herself secretly.

Li Wen saw Li Xiaoli making a cheering gesture and knew that he had thrown the carrot. He hung up the phone without saying anything else.

During this period, Li Wen's time was also fully scheduled. In addition to spending several hours every day calling Mu Yi and others, he also had to go to the small world to guide the training of Mu Yi and others.

A few days ago, Song Xiaohua and Song Yaoyao were released and arranged to study at St. Mary's School.

Of course, there is also Li Wen’s main novel, the 100,000-word Underworld Student, which was serialized yesterday.

The novel "The Underworld Student" is like an atomic bomb dropped on Hong Kong Island, and it has caused quite a stir these days.

Just imagine the huge impact of a gangster novel on Hong Kong Island, where gangs are rampant.

The release of "Underworld Students" caused a burst of exclamation from the clubs. Many small clubs called it the holy book of the industry, attracting clubs to read it one after another.

But the general public never thinks that they are as afraid of the dark as the tiger. When they see such a novel, they all curse the dog author as unworthy of a son of man.

This incident quickly ignited Hong Kong and had a huge impact on Sing Tao Daily.

Sing Tao Daily has a high status among the general public in Hong Kong. The sudden publication of such a novel immediately caused an uproar in Hong Kong society.

Thousands of people launched a march and rushed to the headquarters of Sing Tao Daily to demand an explanation.

This matter even attracted the attention of Hong Kong Governor Dai Linzi, who personally made an appointment with the owner of Sing Tao Daily, Wu Xianyi.

Fortunately, this novel was changed by Li Wen into the ending of "Truth, Goodness and Beauty Education", so the Hong Kong Governor let the matter go, but still wanted Sing Tao to issue a statement.

Sing Tao Daily published articles for three consecutive days indicating that this novel criticizes reality.

Later, after exposing the darkness and encouraging people to be virtuous, the matter gradually calmed down.

It wasn't until a few days ago that the writing style of gangster students suddenly changed, criticizing young people who become gangsters that there will be no good endings, and this made the novel turn from black to popular.

After this incident, the writer's association of underworld students, Li Wen, became a big hit.

Li Xiangyang, who had received Li Wen last time, smiled bitterly when he looked at Li Wen who was still calm across from him.

"Xiao Li! Your novel is so frightening that my boss almost killed me.

Let's go! This novel has made you famous, and the boss wants to meet you in person." After saying that, Li Xiangyang took Li Wen to the chairman's office like he was sending off the plague.

Looking across at the newspaper queen who was in her thirties and at the peak of her upright career, Li Wen truly admired her.

Not only do I admire Hu Xianer for making such a career as a daughter in this Chinese society.

I also admire Hu Xianer’s father Wan Jin Yao. Wan Jin Yao was born in troubled times, but he had a patriotic heart. He was a legend and a great philanthropist.

“I didn’t expect that a mainlander like Li Sheng, who was so young, would understand Heise so well.

"The Underworld Student" describes the underworld life and social fame and wealth." Hu Xian'er was wearing a suit and looked very dashing.

"Novel is just imagination.

Besides, the Heisei Club in Xiangdao is actually a child's play. The Heisei Club in Daxia has a long history, ranging from the small ones in the market to the large ones that can even influence the court.

I'm just looking at the deeds of our predecessors from a modern perspective! Heroes like Dong Hu and Mr. Hu are the role models we should learn from," Li Wen said with a smile.

Li Wen's refusal to be humble and silent not only showed his confidence as a mainlander, but also expressed his respect and admiration for the Hu family and his daughter.

"Bah bang bang!"

Hu Xianer admired Li Wen's words very much, smiled and clapped her hands.

"Li Sheng, I didn't expect you, a young man from mainland China, to know my father.

Thank you for your respect for my father. Some people still remember his efforts." After saying that, Hu Xianer nodded slightly towards Li Wen as a salute.

"Dr. Hu, those who have contributed to the motherland will be remembered by the country.

It’s not that I remember the old man, but that the old man’s greatness makes people respect him.” Li Wen smiled and shook his head.

Then the two chatted for a while. Sometimes Hu Xianer was interested in things in mainland China, and sometimes she was interested in Li Wen's authorship.

"Li Sheng, your first novel Gangster Student has been serialized. Next, Sing Tao Daily hopes that we will publish the book.

Because your novel has already gained quite a reputation in Hong Kong, we can give you an 8% royalty.

For your other martial arts novel, you can be given a royalties of fifteen per thousand words. If the serialization is ideal, the royalties can also be given to 8%.

I also heard from Editor Li that he wanted to use our Xingdao channels to publish a book at his own expense, and I agreed." After the small talk, Hu Xianer started talking about business matters.

"Dr. Hu, the royalties offered by several publishing houses have reached 11%.

This "Underworld Student" was published by your newspaper, and I don't want other newspapers to benefit. I'll give in and you can give me 10% of the royalties."

After chatting, Li Wen refused to give in when it came to business. He directly asked for 10% of the royalties.

In fact, the 11% Li Wen just mentioned was also made up. Recently, he dares to go out to other newspapers to show off, for fear that others will find out and chase him.

In the end, the two of them went back and forth to determine a 9% royalties.

At this price, Li Wen is already very satisfied. After all, he is still a newcomer.

Hu Xianer also made a big move. With a wave of his hand, he printed 100,000 copies for the first time. A novel sold for 8 yuan, which meant that Li Wen directly earned 80,000 yuan this time.

This is already a huge amount of money. You must know that buying a three-bedroom apartment in Central, the most prosperous area in Hong Kong, only costs more than 1 million.

"Brother Ah Sheng, the Underworld Student book we are reading has been distributed. Lend me two dollars so I can grab it." In a classroom at a high school in Xiangdao, a boy said excitedly to his classmate.

"You idiot, why didn't you tell me earlier where I could buy it? Take me there quickly." A bespectacled boy wearing overalls jumped up excitedly.

As the man with glasses shouted loudly, the whole classroom immediately became excited.

This novel is the manifesto of their students, how could they not be excited? Such things also happen in every corner of Hong Kong.

In a nightclub on Portland Street, a young man with a snake tattoo on his arm was hugging him.

Suddenly, a 49-year-old boy pushed open the door and ran in panting, shouting: "Boss, the underworld students have distributed books."

"Damn it, what are you waiting for? Go and grab it! I was in the mood and ran in to disturb my "nature".

Hurry up, buy a hundred copies, and distribute them to every younger brother." The young man took off his tender hands, sat up straight and cursed.

On this day, countless young, Dangerous, and students headed towards the bookstore.

Magazine offices and newsstands were crowded. For a time, there was actually a long queue.

"Hello! I'm the newsstand at No. 120 Queen Street, delivering 200 copies for me." Looking at the hundreds of teenagers queuing up, the newsstand owner trembled with excitement.
