Chapter 297 If you hurt me, you must be responsible

Friday, July 5th.

Yuhang Chongran Culture Media Company was officially registered and established.

Li Guohong privately asked Li Guoru for help and went through the procedures at the Industrial and Commercial Bureau.

Perhaps because he was so shocked by the group photo of the symposium on the bulletin board at the Writers Association, Li Guoru was quite concerned about Li Luo's situation.

After retirement, in order to find something to do, he chose to ask someone to polish his autobiography, published it at his own expense, and joined the Yuhang City Writers Association to have some fun.

In order to not let myself be idle.

But since Sun Jingchun introduced Li Luo's achievements to him at the Writers Association last time, Li Guoru's interest in the Writers Association has gradually faded.

This time, Li Guohong approached his elder brother. When Li Guoru heard about it, he immediately became interested and personally took Li Guohong around to settle the company registration issue.

It just so happened that Li Guoru was an accountant by profession, and Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong were unable to recruit suitable financial staff for the time being, so Li Guoru simply put himself on the list in their company and helped with the bookkeeping.

Anyway, the finances on Li Luo's side are quite simple. It's nothing more than collecting royalties every month. Taxes are all prepaid at the beginning, and the only thing he needs to do is confirm the amount of tax to be paid at the end of the year.

Apart from that, the song copyright contract with Huayue Film and Television is a very simple matter. Although Li Guoru has not been in charge of finances for many years, this basic operation still has no problem.

"So Dad, you are the general manager now?" In the evening, Li Luo secretly called Li Guohong in the corner of the corridor. After learning the specific news, he couldn't help laughing.

"Stop talking nonsense." Li Guohong also laughed. "The company has been registered. According to your uncle Ying, since you are a minor, you need your guardian, that is, your mother, to sign an agency agreement with our company."

"Then you can talk to the editor at Qidian and have a new contract drafted and signed directly in the name of the company."

"This way, future royalties and copyright fees can all go directly into the company's account."

"OK." Li Luo nodded, and then joked, "Dad, remember to write a salary slip for yourself and mom. Don't let yourself be wronged."

"What are you saying?" Li Guohong immediately laughed and scolded, "You just want to pay your parents a salary and let us work for you, right?"

Although this company was registered by Li Guohong, he used Li Luo's identity information. Li Guohong, as his legal guardian, made investments on his behalf, including company shares, which were all held by Li Guohong.

When Li Luo becomes an adult, these things will naturally be handed over to Li Luo.

So it is theoretically correct to say that Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong work for their son.

"That's better than working for nothing." Li Luo said with a smile.

"Alright, alright, I won't argue with you about this." Li Guohong interrupted the topic and then said, "I've already bought the milk tea shop and the breakfast shop a while ago. They won't renew the lease at the end of the month. When do you think you can tell your uncle?"

"Then there was news today about the fruit shop, saying that no one has come to rent the shop yet."

"I guess after this weekend, they will agree to sell the store to us."

"I see. I'll talk to my uncle." Li Luo nodded, then asked, "What about the hot pot restaurant?"

"That side... is a bit difficult to handle." Li Guohong smacked his lips, feeling a little embarrassed. "I don't know where the landlord heard the rumor that the subway extension project in Yinjiang District would be approved during the summer vacation, but now he refuses to sell it."

"Really? There's a sound so early?" Li Luo was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

As far as he could remember, it seemed that it was not until September this year that Yuhang City approved the subway project in Yinjiang District.

"Last year, there was actually a planning proposal for public display, but it was never approved." Li Guohong said, "I'm still in touch with the father of Shao Heqi, a student in your class, and I think he has some information."

"But they are just vague and unsure when it will be approved."

"But it doesn't matter. He can sell it or not."

At this stage, with Li Luo's online writing achievements and song copyrights flourishing, Li Guohong has become more confident in his work and life.

At a time when Li Luo's career was booming, especially after learning that Li Luo had been privately collaborating with Yuan Wanqing on a new album, Li Guohong was completely relieved.

As for the shops and properties on West Street, they are now just icing on the cake for their family and no longer have any significant significance.

Li Guohong and his wife have now thought it through. Even if their breakfast shop is completely closed, they can renovate it a bit and turn it into a small office.

It just so happened that the registered location of Rekindling Culture was the storefront of their breakfast shop, so the couple would go to work on time every day from then on.

She read the novel written by her son carefully, and learned some financial knowledge when she was free. She followed Li Guoru to learn how to do accounting and how to file taxes, and took care of these trivial matters for Li Luo.

Occasionally when I have free time, I stroll to the West Street of Qianjiang University to take a look at how my own shop is doing and collect rent when the time comes.

If you develop one or two hobbies in your spare time, you can start living your retirement life in advance.

"Okay." After hearing what his father said, Li Luo didn't urge him anymore.

No matter how good the hot pot restaurant's business is in the future, it will only be a not-so-small income for Li Luo, and it won't be a pity if it is gone.

At least the initial goal has been achieved, and I have successfully persuaded my parents to give up running our breakfast shop.

Although Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong were still running around during this period, busy with the store and company registration matters, their spirits were getting better and better, and they looked much healthier.

"Then I'll hang up now if there's nothing else." Li Guohong said, "Study hard and tell me about the contract revision at the weekend."

"it is good."

After talking about business, Li Luo hung up the phone and went back to the classroom for evening study.

Recently, under Li Luo's guidance, Yan Zhusheng has completed all the courses for this semester ahead of schedule.

During class, Yan Zhusheng followed Li Luo and finished the homework assigned by the teacher that day.

During the evening self-study period, Li Luo gave Yan Zhusheng intensive training, mainly focusing on the subject of physics.

Geography is Yan Zhusheng's strong point, so don't worry too much.

History is mainly about memorizing and reciting things. When Li Luo has nothing to do, he will open the memory palace and ask Yan Zhusheng some questions from the history textbook to strengthen her memory.

So I focused on physics during evening self-study, hoping to get a good score in the optional examination in the second half of the year.

After the second evening self-study session and the night run with Yan Zhusheng, Li Luo and Ying Chanxi went downstairs together after school. After meeting Xu Youyu at Houde Road, the three of them walked towards the school gate.

On the way, Li Luo said, "You guys go home first. I have something to do with my uncle. I'll bring you fried noodles later."

"What's the matter?" Ying Chanxi asked curiously.

"Well... This is related to my uncle's lifelong event, the secret cannot be leaked."

"You're still being mysterious." Xu Youyu covered his mouth and chuckled, "I want to eat fried noodles with some ham today."

"Got it." Li Luo nodded and said, "Where's Xixi?"

"same as usual."

"OK."

After parting at the school gate, Li Luo went straight to the side iron gate of the dormitory campus.

Zhao Rongjun is already helping here, packing portions of fried rice and fried noodles in advance, waiting to sell them to students after class.

"Hey, you're here?" Lin Xiufeng noticed Li Luo approaching and asked with a smile, "What do you want to eat today?"

"One serving of fried rice noodles, two servings of fried noodles, and fried rice noodles with ham sausage."

"Okay, wait."

Li Luo didn't rush to speak, but glanced at Zhao Rongjun first, and asked with a smile: "How much pocket money have you saved?"

"Several thousand." Zhao Rongjun laughed, "Anyway, it's definitely not as good as you."

Although Zhao Rongjun didn't know Li Luo's specific income, he knew that the novel he wrote was very popular on the Internet. The prize for the essay contest alone was 50,000 yuan. Zhao Rongjun didn't even dare to imagine how much the specific royalties were.

However, he is a contented person. He helps his brothers when they are in trouble and is happy when his brothers are successful. He does not feel jealous because he earns less. Instead, he is happy to earn the tips of dozens of dollars every day.

Lin Xiufeng was a little surprised by this.

I originally thought that it would be amazing if Zhao Rongjun could stick with it for a month or two, but it turns out that he has been following me since last semester until now and has never complained about the hardship or tiredness.

Moreover, in the midterm exam a while ago, Zhao Rongjun still maintained his ranking and ranked 61st in the whole school. His grades did not drop, which is also magical.

"By the way, when you are divided into classes in your second year of high school, what major do you plan to choose?" Li Luo saw that Lin Xiufeng was busy, so he continued to chat with Zhao Rongjun.

"I've talked to my parents about this," Zhao Rongjun said. "They'll probably choose physics, chemistry, and geography."

"Chemistry..." Li Luo touched his chin, "I don't know if we can be assigned to the same class."

"What do you choose?" Zhao Rongjun asked back.

"Xixi, Zhusheng and I are all majoring in physics, history and geography, which is different from you."

Generally speaking, when schools divide classes, students who have chosen the same subjects will be grouped together.

But to be honest, Li Luo is not sure how many people have chosen physics, history and geography at the same time.

As far as he could remember, the ordinary high school he attended in his previous life had a total of 12 classes.

Among them, there are eight pure science classes, and many of them were persuaded by school teachers to join the pure science classes.

After all, this is the first time that the school has faced the new college entrance examination policy of choosing three out of seven, and it is somewhat path-dependent. We still hope that students can choose pure science or pure liberal arts, which will make it easier for the school to teach.

So at that time there were eight science classes and two liberal arts classes, and only the remaining two classes were hybrids of science and liberal arts.

Among them, one class is physics, chemistry, and geography, and the other is history, politics, and biology.

It is said that geography is the science among liberal arts, and biology is the liberal arts among science, so the situation of the above two classes is actually not much different from that of pure liberal arts or pure science.

However, Li Luo and his classmates' choice of physics, history, and geography is a strange choice. I guess there are few people like them in the whole school.

If there are few people at that time, it is hard to say which class you will be assigned to.

Moreover, according to what Kong Junxiang revealed to Li Luo privately, after this class division, there will be no so-called key classes in the No. 1 Affiliated Middle School, and everyone will be assigned to different classes.

All classes were reorganized.

Unlike the previous class division in the second year of high school, the term "key class" is still retained. "Okay." After Lin Xiufeng finished frying, he packed it for Li Luo, put it in a plastic bag, and handed it to him.

Li Luo took the plastic bag and didn't leave in a hurry. He smiled and said to Lin Xiufeng, "Uncle, are you free tomorrow afternoon?"

"What's the matter?" Lin Xiufeng glanced at him, "I'm resting on the weekend, what do you want?"

"Come and do me a favor." After getting his answer, Li Luo nodded with satisfaction, turned around and said, "Meet at the gate of my community at 1:30 pm. I'll give you a surprise then."

"Hey! You haven't said anything yet!"

"We'll find out tomorrow!"

……

After returning from the stall, Li Luo put the fried vermicelli on the table and greeted the guests.

Xu Youyu came out of the bedroom when he smelled the fragrance, ran to the table with his nose turned up, and couldn't wait to open his fried noodles.

"Where's Xixi?"

"Taking a shower."

Li Luo nodded and sat down to eat first.

When he had almost finished his fried noodles, Ying Chanxi came out of the bathroom in his pajamas and sat at the dining table for a midnight snack.

Li Luo stood up and walked behind her to help blow dry her hair.

At this time, Ying Chanxi asked while eating fried noodles: "June 6th is senior sister's birthday, right? It seems to be coming soon."

"Yes." Xu Youyu nodded, "But that day was Monday, so I had to go to school."

"Then we can celebrate two days in advance." Ying Chanxi suggested, "Let's celebrate Senior's birthday on Saturday the 6th."

"Of course." Xu Youyu smiled happily, "If you say so, I won't be polite."

"Why do I have a bad feeling?" Li Luo looked at Xu Youyu's smiling expression and said immediately.

"What are you talking about?" Xu Youyu rolled his eyes at him. "I just thought of a fun birthday activity. Let's do it when the time comes."

"Don't play hide and seek again."

"Of course not."

"Suddenly I feel more worried..."

After finishing his midnight snack, Ying Chanxi obediently returned to his bedroom, ready to read Li Luo's novel for a while before going to bed.

Before going to bed, he punched Pikachu and Doraemon Bon Bon twice.

There's no other reason, it's just convenient, I'm used to it, and it feels good.

Xu Youyu took a shower first and then went back to the bedroom to continue typing.

After Li Luo returned to the room, he contacted the editor and explained his situation again.

[Qianzhou]: No problem. I have discussed the contract with the contract department.

[Qianzhou]: I should have mentioned this to you when the great guy made the appointment. Since you have already settled your own company in advance, it is convenient for me. We just need to sign a new contract.

[Qianzhou]: I will send the contract documents to you tomorrow. Your company can sign and stamp them and mail them to you.

After receiving Qianzhou's affirmative answer, Li Luo felt relieved.

In this way, his life's career was finally on the right track.

However, just after Li Luo finished chatting and typing today's chapter, the door behind him was pushed open.

Li Luo knew who it was without having to guess.

Especially when the back of his head was supported by something soft, Li Luo silently took on this heavy burden.

"What's going on today?"

"It's nothing. There's just good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?" Xu Youyu gently massaged his head and asked with a smile.

"Just be happy with the good news first."

"The good news is that my average subscription has reached 9500," Xu Youyu said happily, "I'm only 500 away from subscriptions!"

"What about the bad news? Don't tell me the average subscription has started to drop."

"That's not the case, but..." Xu Youyu said, "Now the average subscription increases by about 10 to 20 times a day, and it probably won't reach 10,000 before my birthday, so... Junior, you're going to lose the bet."

"There are still more than ten days left." Li Luo laughed when he heard this, and directly opened his writer's background and added a sentence at the bottom of the chapter to be updated tomorrow, "I'll help you promote your chapter again."

"Hey hey hey! Why are you still using tricks?" Xu Youyu opened his eyes wide, "You are breaking the rules! You are maliciously manipulating the stock market."

"The bet didn't say we can't do this." Li Luo said with a smile, "Besides, I've recommended your chapter several times before, and I don't know how much effect it will have this time."

"You really want to beat me?" Xu Youyu said with a smile, "You don't really want me to do something bad that will make people imagine it, do you?"

"You think too much. I'm just afraid that after you win, you'll make me do something weird." Li Luo said seriously, "We don't have to have nuclear weapons, but we must never let the enemy have them."

"When did I become your enemy? We are obviously comrades in arms who have shared hardships together, okay?"

"So when will you tell Uncle Xu about your online writing? So that you can share the hardship with me."

"Hehe... Sharing hardships also requires different positions. You are now responsible for sharing the firepower, and I am responsible for your logistical support, right?"

"Where do you get the logistical support?"

"Isn't this it?" Xu Youyu pressed his head against his chest and said with a smile, "Do you feel my sister's logistical support?"

Li Luo: “…”

"Speaking of which." Li Luo changed the subject, "How are you going to spend your birthday? Is it similar to Xixi's birthday last time?"

Seeing him change the subject so abruptly, Xu Youyu chuckled.

Then, after hearing his question, she shook her index finger: "NoNoNo."

"I naturally have my own plans for my birthday."

"Just follow my instructions when the time comes."

Hearing Xu Youyu say this, Li Luo immediately had a bad feeling: "So how do you want to live? Tell me the bottom line first?"

"Oh, everything else can be just like a normal birthday. I'm not picky." Xu Youyu waved his hand and said, "But I've thought of a great birthday game. You guys have to play it with me then."

"…a new version of hide and seek?"

"I already told you this isn't hide-and-seek, what are you afraid of? I'm not going to eat you."

"What kind of birthday game is that?"

"I won't tell you." Xu Youyu smiled slyly, "You will know when the time comes."

Li Luo twitched his lips. Although he didn't know what it was, he suddenly didn't want to play this little game anymore.

It always feels dangerous.

"By the way," Xu Youyu smiled and brought the topic back to the bet between the two of them. He whispered in Li Luo's ear, "If I win the bet, I probably already have an idea of ​​what I want you to do. Do you want to hear it, junior?"

"……In no mood."

"Really don't want to?"

"No." Li Luo snorted, "I will win anyway."

"But my birthday is on the 6th. Should I move the deadline of the bet to the 6th?"

"How can that be possible?!" Li Luo immediately rejected the idea. "Of course, it will be calculated based on the time on the 8th."

"What if there are 8 orders on the th?"

"Of course I win then." Li Luo said shamelessly, "If there are 8 orders after the th, then I win."

"Okay~" Xu Youyu didn't bother with the time.

After all, after recommending her chapters many times, the effect of Li Luo's recommendation of her book was very limited.

And during this period, the editor did not arrange any new recommendation position for her.

Based on the current daily increase of more than ten to twenty average subscriptions, even with the support of Li Luo's chapter promotion, by June 6th, it is estimated that the subscription will only increase to around 8.

"I will give you a chapter push every day for the next ten days until you get 10,000 subscriptions." Li Luo pulled out the subsequent chapters that he had scheduled, and copied and pasted a paragraph of the chapter push content. "I don't believe that I can't win."

"You really have a strong desire to win." Xu Youyu laughed and then reminded, "Don't forget my birthday present. I'm really looking forward to it."

"Don't worry, we're ready."

"Hmm? When did you prepare it?"

"It has been delivered, right? That express delivery."

"Show it to me?"

"Hey hey hey! Wait until your birthday to open it, don't move now!"

"Ah!" After a small struggle, Xu Youyu fell on Li Luo's bed, her long hair spread out and the shoulder straps of her nightgown drooped.

She bit a strand of hair with her lips, squinted her eyes and smiled at Li Luo, and said charmingly, "You hurt me, you must be responsible."
