Shut up, I am really a pure love god of war!

Chapter 117 The physical book is published?

After entering the room, Bai Yang stretched vigorously.

It's been a long day.

After taking a quick shower, Bai Yang turned off the lights in the living room and was about to go to bed when he saw some light coming from the balcony.

He was stunned for a moment, then walked to the balcony, and as expected, he saw Chun Yuwan leaning against the balcony railing to enjoy the breeze.

"Aren't you asleep yet?" Bai Yang asked casually.

"Soon." Chun Yuwan turned her head and said, "I don't have to go to class during the day, so I can sleep as much as I want."

Bai Yang: "Are you polite to say such things in front of a poor early riser like me?"

"It's okay." Chun Yuwan said seriously, "We are friends, I can help you get enough sleep together."

"Thank you, you are quite good at talking." Bai Yang rolled his eyes.

"You're welcome." Chun Yuwan said, "By the way, are you going tomorrow?"

"climb mountains?"

"Ah."

"The day after tomorrow. I'm too tired today. I'll take a day off."

"Okay." Chun Yuwan hesitated for a moment: "Last time I said I wanted to give you a painting. Can you come and pick one tomorrow?"

"Then I won't be polite!" Bai Yang said with a smile, "At noon, do you want me to bring you lunch?"

"No, I'll do it myself. If you want to come, I'll do your portion too."

"That's great, and I can save a meal." Bai Yang waved his hand: "Okay, you can continue playing, I really need to sleep."

Chun Yuwan pursed her lips and said, "Good night, Baiyang."

"Good night."

Silent all night.

I woke up in the morning and rushed to the rice noodle shop, only to find that Zhong Xilu had already reserved a seat.

"Comrade Xiao Zhong, you're here so early today." Bai Yang greeted him and sat down: "Boss, beef, eggs, and intestines."

Boss: "Okay."

"Don't mention it. My dad starts nagging me early in the morning. I can't stand it." Zhong Xilu looked unhappy: "Do all men become nagging like this when they reach middle age?"

"According to the boss, I think it's very likely." Bai Yang nodded.

Zhong Xilu: "What about you?"

"I won't." Bai Yang said with certainty: "In another twenty years, I will still be a ruthless, quiet, decisive and domineering CEO."

"Puff..." Zhong Xilu covered her mouth and laughed, "Sorry, I really can't imagine what connection there is between being decisive and ruthless and you. Do you think you are the male protagonist of Qidian?"

"Ah? Am I not?" Bai Yang said seriously: "If I'm not the male lead, how could I have breakfast with the most beautiful girl in the history of Xiangdong No. 1 Middle School every day?"

Zhong Xilu's cheeks turned slightly red: "Foul! Why are you so sweet today?"

"I can't help it. Comrade Xiao Zhong protected me last night. I feel bad if I don't say something nice."

"Then I will continue to protect you from now on, just say more."

"It's better not to. I'm afraid that I will be immersed in the land of comfort and lose my fighting spirit, and from now on I will only cry out to rich women for being hungry."

After eating the noodles, Zhong Xilu went into a small bookstore next to the school gate.

"I've finished reading the book I borrowed last time. I'll find two more."

"Isn't it enough to read my books?" Bai Yang complained, "Comrade Xiao Zhong, you are not dedicated." "Only the little you update every day?" Zhong Xilu sneered:
"It only takes a few minutes. Who can be satisfied with that?"

Bai Yang's eyes widened: "What you said, several thousand words are not a small number, right? Do you know how hard I worked?"

"Go play somewhere else." Zhong Xilu ignored him and asked the boss, "Are there any new books recently?"

"Yes, we just received a new batch." The boss said attentively, "They are all the latest ones! They are guaranteed to look good!"

"For example, this book 'The Strange World' is a popular serialized book right now!"

poplar:"???"

He leaned over: "Let me see."

"That's all the ones in the rightmost row of bookshelves." The boss pointed.

"When did you publish a physical book? It can't be the same name, right?" Zhong Xilu found a book and opened it: "Hey, I don't eat beef, it seems it's not the same name."

Bai Yang smiled bitterly: "Why didn't I know that I sold the physical copyright?"

Although I know that these days small bookstores like this basically sell pirated books, I still can't feel good when I'm the one who gets piracy.

It's only been serialized for more than 300,000 words! It's still a young book, but it was directly ripped off by pirated booksellers?
"That means they didn't give you money?" Zhong Xilu frowned and turned the title page: "There is no publisher's information. Is this a pirated book?"

"Of course it's a pirated copy." Bai Yang spread his hands, "At least they were kind enough to keep my pen name instead of finding someone to impersonate me."

"Can you find a way to check whether what they are doing is illegal?" Zhong Xilu said seriously, "You can sue them."

"It doesn't make much sense." Bai Yang shook his head. "They are basically small workshops. If one is closed down, another will pop up. This kind of thing is ultimately a problem of copyright awareness."

"Wait. Aren't all the online articles in this bookstore pirated?" Zhong Xilu was stunned.

"About the same." Bai Yang shrugged. "These days, there aren't that many books with physical copyrights sold. Even if they are sold, they are sold in big bookstores, not at this price."

Zhong Xilu suddenly felt unhappy and threw the book away: "Then I won't read it. Forget it, I'll just subscribe online."

Bai Yang didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You look even angrier than me."

"You worked so hard to write a book! Why do these people sell your work for money?" Zhong Xilu said angrily, "I don't want to read such a conscientious book. I will buy it when you publish a genuine physical book."

"It's probably too early." Bai Yang said, "Although my book has done well, it's not famous enough yet."

"Oh." Zhong Xilu asked, "I didn't know this before. So, do you have to wait for those publishers to notice your book before you can sell it?"

"That's about it." Bai Yang said with a smile.

Zhong Xilu thought for a moment, "How about I buy your copyright?"

poplar:"???"

Do you want to listen to what you are saying? What kind of speech is this from a wealthy person?

"No, Comrade Xiao Zhong, you really want to support me."

Bai Yang had no doubt that Zhong Xilu had the financial resources. Given her family background, the online copyright was just a drop in the bucket.

"Who wants to support you?" Zhong Xilu rolled her eyes at him and said, "I just think that your book is so well written. If I buy the copyright and publish it at my own expense, I will definitely not lose money, right?"

“Since we are all making money, why can’t you make money for me?”

"Do you have a publishing house? Can you apply for a publishing license? Do you understand the twists and turns in this regard?" Bai Yang said directly: "Stop it, you can't get angry about this kind of thing."

"I don't want our pure relationship as deskmates to be mixed with dirty interests."

"Okay." Zhong Xilu curled his lips: "Why are you so serious? I'm just thinking about it casually."
