Cheng Tianyuan was slightly embarrassed, tears glistening in his eyes.
"Um...have you consulted Lawyer He? Regarding signing a contract or something...you have to listen to her opinion. She is a professional lawyer."
Cheng Huanchong nodded hurriedly: "Yes, Lawyer He's assistant accompanied me to sign the contract."
Cheng Tianyuan was still excited and patted his youngest son on the shoulder.
"Don't be proud, work hard. Since it is what you like, you must stick to it. It has not been easy along the way... It has been six or seven years... I finally made some achievements."
Back then, his youngest son almost gave up his studies in order to draw comics. He was so angry that he was about to stop him at first, but after being reminded by his wife, he finally agreed to let him try to learn.
I didn't expect that he studied so seriously and persisted for several years, painting with great enthusiasm and making progress.
He was secretly surprised by his son's enthusiasm and attitude, and his initial "skeptical" attitude gradually changed to acquiescence and support.
Over the years, his son has had to cope with the heavy learning tasks at school while insisting on drawing comics. He sees how hard it is along the way and feels distressed in his heart, but he rarely speaks out.
When others were doing homework, he also did homework. When others were able to play, his son immediately went into the room to get a paintbrush.
Others went to play first during the holidays, and only after they had enough fun could they think of their homework. He started to catch up on his homework as soon as he had the holidays, just to have a little more time to put together his comic career, and he was reluctant to waste even a few minutes!
During the winter and summer vacations, when others were enjoying their vacations, he would hide in his room and paint quietly. Even when he went out with his brothers, he would carry a small drawing board with him and race against time to finish the draft.
For countless nights, my son yawned, held a paintbrush, and stood in front of the drawing board with red eyes, drawing. He would go to the kitchen to pour a glass of milk to heat, bring it into the room and tell him to go to bed early after drinking and not stay up late.
.
From the second day of junior high school to the present, he has persisted day and night for more than six years, which moved his father and made him feel gratified.
The child finally got results. He was happy for his son and even more proud of him!
Cheng Huanchong instantly burst into tears and threw himself into his father's arms.
"Dad, thank you! Thank you and mom for your support over the years... In the past few years, you sent me to study painting, drove me there, and then waited downstairs until I finished class. It was windy and rainy
, whether it’s cold or hot, as long as I go to class, you will be waiting downstairs with me. Without your support and everyone’s encouragement over the years, how could I have made it to where I am today!”
Cheng Tianyuan smiled, holding back his tears in embarrassment, and patted his son's back hard.
"I can't help you much. You have to pick up the brush yourself regardless of how heavy it is. This road is not easy, so you have to persevere. In the end, you have to pursue your own dreams by yourself."
Cheng Huanchong nodded heavily, his tears turning into a smile.
"Okay, thank you Dad."
Cheng Huanran also burst into tears and stepped forward to give his brother a big hug.
"Congratulations! Once I get the royalties, I have to treat everyone to a big dinner."
"Okay!"
Everyone laughed again.
Xue Ling rubbed her hands and walked into the house with her tired head. She saw a large family gathered around and laughing happily. Several of them had red eyes. She was so frightened that she quickly stopped in her tracks.
"Mom!" Cheng Huanchong jumped up for joy and rushed over to hug her excitedly.
Everyone laughed and gathered around to share the good news with her.
Xue Ling was so happy that she kissed her son on the cheek.
"Awesome! So awesome! Son, mom is proud of you! We are all proud of you!"
Cheng Huanchong turned sideways and wiped away his tears, smiling and saying, "Thank you, Mom~~"
"Let the big kitchen add more dishes! Let's celebrate the third child in advance tonight!"
"That's right! The weather has improved over the weekend. How about we go to the back garden for a barbecue?"
"Okay, okay!"
"This is a good suggestion! We will send a family group message later and set the time!"
While everyone was discussing happily, they walked to the big kitchen to have dinner.
Xue's father couldn't help but jokingly asked: "You have made a lot of money at a young age. You are really awesome! Third brother, you have a windfall of tens of millions from heaven. What are your plans next?"
"Haha!" Cheng Huanchong shook his head and laughed: "Grandpa, didn't I tell you earlier? It's 50 million before tax. Taxes will have to be deducted then, and taxes may have to be paid next year. When you get it, you can get 30 million yuan.
If there are more than ten thousand, then I will be Amitabha!"
Mother Xue gave a thumbs up: "Good enough, good enough! You have been earning royalties for these years, and you don't have to pay for your living expenses at home. It's already amazing. You are not even twenty years old, and you can earn tens of millions - looking at it
Go ahead, how many people can have such ability? Very few!"
"Yes!" Liu Ying nodded in agreement: "That's amazing! She's not even twenty years old yet! And she did it all with her own hands. She didn't need any capital or help from her parents or other people."
Cheng Huanran smiled sheepishly: "I can only make money after I graduate. When I was your age, I did nothing but study and join clubs. Look at you, you made tens of millions in one breath! Such a skill
It’s not an ordinary big one!”
"No, no, no!" Cheng Huanchong stopped repeatedly: "I'm just lucky! This comic combines the right time, place, and people, so I was lucky enough to be chosen."
Wang Xiaoxiao gave a thumbs up: "Opportunities will only come to those who are prepared. Your luck is based on your ability and your professional level!"
"Yes!"
Cheng Tianyuan quickly stopped her and whispered: "You have been very busy recently and have to go out tomorrow morning, so stop drinking."
Everyone originally wanted to answer the question, but when they saw that Cheng Tianyuan was not very happy, they suddenly got cold feet and did not dare to join in and ask for a drink to celebrate.
"Just a small bottle of beer." Xue Ling muttered.
Cheng Tianyuan had always been helpless against her, so after hearing what she said, he had no choice but to agree.
"Okay, I'll give you warm beer, a small bottle each. Well... Xiaoxiao drinks juice, okay?"
Wang Xiaoxiao blushed and whispered: "Okay, thank you, Dad. There is no need to heat the juice, just give me a small cup."
Cheng Tianyuan answered ok and walked quickly to the bar.
Liu Ying on the side laughed and said: "A Yuan is very happy, you can even see it from his back!"
Everyone laughed again.
"Mom~" Cheng Huanchong leaned over and hugged Xue Ling's arm, "Mom, after I get the copyright fee, can I... buy a car for transportation?"
Xue Ling raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "You have always arranged your own royalties. This time is no exception."
"Oh yeah!" Cheng Huanchong jumped up with joy and raised his hands in excitement: "Long live mom! Thank you, Mom! From now on, I can drive home without classes and don't have to squeeze in the bus! Oh yeah!"
Xue Ling smiled fondly: "However, you are still a student now, so don't buy something too expensive or eye-catching. Just a small car for ordinary transportation."
