Chapter 306 Xixi comes to be the secretary

After Xu Youyu’s birthday on June 6, in the early morning of the 8th, within a few minutes, "Literary Age" easily achieved 9 subscriptions.

A year ago, Xu Youyu would not have dared to even imagine this achievement.

At that time, she was still a newcomer in the industry, and she wrote "I'm Really Not a Star" at the same time as Li Luo.

At that time, the two people's books were considered to be quite good among a bunch of books published in the same period.

But even though "I'm Really Not a Star" was recommended by Sanjiang, the first order was actually only over 2,000.

Although there have been efforts in subsequent updates, the results are only of a masterpiece.

If it weren't for the joint event between "I'm Really Not a Star" and Yuan Wanqing, who sang "Annual Rings" on New Year's Day last year, "I'm Really Not a Star" would not have taken off so quickly.

And Xu Youyu also took advantage of this favorable situation and, with the help of Li Luo's promotion, worked hard for more than half a year and finally reached 10,000 subscriptions.

This also made Xu Youyu feel grateful. He always felt that his achievements were not real, but were only achieved with the help of Li Luo.

But only Li Luo knew clearly that Xu Youyu's real strength was there. He just provided some insignificant help to make her ten thousand orders come earlier.

At this time, the average subscription of "I'm Really Not a Celebrity" has reached 25000 as the traffic continues to snowball.

A real book hit.

What does it mean that the main site has an average subscription of 2015 in 25000?
You know, this era is the glorious moment for online literature channels.

Li Luo now normally updates about 20 words of content every month, and the main site's royalties are around 15 yuan.

However, the monthly channel fee has risen to more than 50 yuan per month, which is more than three times the main site's manuscript fee!
You should know that the royalties shared by the channel website must first be divided equally with the channel website. After 50% of the profits are taken back, the main website will then divide the profits equally with the author.

That is to say, if a reader spends 10 yuan on this book on the Qidian main site, the author can get 5 yuan.

If the money is spent on external channels, the author can only get 2.5 yuan.

But even so, Li Luo's channel royalties are still more than three times that of the main site.

Calculated in this way, the actual revenue of the channel station is actually six or seven times that of the main station.

In other words, the number of genuine readers who paid to read "I'm Really Not a Celebrity" is at least around 20.

As we all know, for popular books like this, the number of pirated readers is basically more than ten times...

To exaggerate a little, a hundred times is not impossible.

He is a public figure whose direct influence is at least on the order of millions of people. Ordinary people may not feel anything about this, but the attitude of the Writers Association is different.

……

After the final exams of the Affiliated No. 24 Middle School from the 26th to the 27th were over, on Saturday, the th, during the morning study session, Kong Junxiang walked into the classroom with a stack of forms and asked Hua Xiuxiu to distribute them.

Li Luo took the form from Zhu Huiyan in the front row and took a look at it. Sure enough, it was the subject selection consent form mentioned earlier.

"Everyone, take a look at this form." Kong Junxiang clapped his hands, signaling everyone to pay attention, and then said, "As we said before, after you go home this week, everyone must fill out the subject selection goals above, and then have your parents sign and take it back."

"You should have seen the table above. It has two columns and six spaces in total."

"The first column is your first choice of subject, which is the three courses you want to choose the most."

"Then the second column is for your second choice. If your first choice is not acceptable, would you prefer three science subjects or three arts subjects?"

"Teacher Kong." Zhu Yufei asked in confusion, "What do you mean the first choice of subject is not allowed? Didn't the college entrance examination reform say you can choose whatever you want?"

"Ahem." Kong Junxiang cleared his throat and explained, "Although it's a random selection, there are 20 possible combinations of the seven subjects, even if we exclude the technical subject and leave the remaining six regular subjects. But we only have 16 classes in total."

"So if your first choice is chosen by relatively few students in the school, you may need to consider changing it."

"If the number of people who wish to apply for the same position is less than 30, the school will discuss the follow-up measures with you privately."

After answering a few questions that concerned the students, Kong Junxiang reminded them of some matters that needed attention, then looked at Li Luo and waved at him: "Can you come up and tell us about the class division tour?"

"Oh, I'm here." Hearing Kong Junxiang calling him, Li Luo stood up and walked towards the podium. When he passed by Hua Xiuxiu, he knocked on her desk and said, "Distribute the prepared things."

Hua Xiuxiu nodded immediately, stood up again, took out a stack of papers from the drawer, and began to distribute them to the whole class.

Although Li Luo had already told Hua Xiuxiu not to inform other classmates before finalizing the plan.

But because this idea first came out of the girls' dormitory, many people in the class already knew about it in advance, but they were still unsure about the specific arrangements.

After the notice about the class tour plan was sent out, there was a sudden whisper in the classroom. Many students were a little excited, with expectant looks in their eyes.

After several revisions and iterations, this plan has become relatively complete.

Zhu Yufei took the notice passed down by the table in front of him with curiosity, and then read it, paying attention to a few key points.

For example, the opening paragraph, after explaining the reason and purpose of this class tour, mentions, "This class tour will be prepared and arranged by the parents of Li Luo, the monitor of Class 8 of Grade 1, Mr. Li Guohong and Ms. Lin Xiuhong. They will accompany the students of Class 8 to participate in this event together with the homeroom teacher, Mr. Kong, and the English teacher, Ms. Ding."

And at the end, the destination and specific arrangements of this trip are explained in detail.

Li Luo did not choose a place far away and directly settled in Yuquan County next to Yuhang City.

Li Guoru has acquaintances and friends there, and he opened a fairly large farm stay.

Recently, Li Guoru has been working at Chongran Culture, helping with accounting and other things, and helped Li Luo deal with this matter.

After asking his friends, it turned out that there were no reservations available from July 7th to 17th, so Li Guoru booked the entire place for him.

It's a good opportunity to take care of the company's accounts, and Li Guoru can also find something to do.

According to the plan, the trip is three days and two nights in total. Each person only needs to pay two hundred yuan, and food, accommodation and travel expenses are all included. All entertainment activities in the farm house are also free and open to the public, so you can enjoy them as much as you want.

There are several pictures on the back of the notice, showing fishing, boating, picking fruits in the orchard, feeding chickens and ducks, hiking, barbecue and bonfire parties. It can be said that there is everything you can think of.

Just by looking at these introductions, the students in Class 7 are drooling and can’t wait to jump to July 17th.

"The summer vacation group tour plan is clearly stated in the notice, so you can take a closer look."

After Li Luo came on stage, he said, "I'd like to give you a little advice."

As he spoke, he raised his hand, pinched his thumb and index finger together, and continued with a smile: "After all, our class tour is not hosted by the school, so some parents may have doubts and concerns."

"So, I have prepared two plans and arguments for you."

"First of all, why did I choose to send out the notice today?"

"Because although the final exams are over, the test results are not out yet. We will not affect our parents' choice just because we failed the exams."

"So when you go home, try not to talk about the final exam and the class division together. Try to talk about them separately."

"The best way is to take the initiative to talk to your parents about the final exams, and then wait for another time to talk to your parents about the class selection and the class trip."

"This should increase the chances of success."

Kong Junxiang, who was sitting on an empty chair nearby, couldn't help laughing and shaking his head when he saw Li Luo teaching everyone how to convince their parents.

Li Luo continued, "In addition, our date is set from the 17th to the 19th, which happens to be Friday to Sunday."

"If there are parents who are really worried about their children going out to play alone, they can sign up to participate together."

"Then we can go to the farm together. If I can accompany you in person, I will feel more at ease."

After Li Luo said this, many people showed somewhat reluctant expressions.

Zhu Yufei even wailed: "No! How can I have fun with my parents following me?"

"Don't worry, we're just asking the parents to come and play, not to play with us." Li Luo laughed, "My parents, as well as Teacher Kong and Teacher Ding will be here, and they will help us take care of our parents. We have our own activities, and they won't be affected."

With Li Luo's assurance, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, when you go out to play with classmates, you definitely don’t want your parents to be watching you all the time, otherwise that would be too uncomfortable.

After saying the above, Li Luo briefly talked about the specific itinerary for three days and two nights, and then nodded to Kong Junxiang to indicate that he had finished.

"Okay." Kong Junxiang stood up and walked back to the podium. After letting Li Luo go down, he clapped his hands and said, "We're going to swim in different classes. That's the situation."

"After all, I have been your homeroom teacher for a year, and we have had a lot of fun getting along with each other for a year."

"After Hua Xiuxiu asked me privately this time, I thought about it and felt that this was a good idea, so I agreed."

"But I still want to say a few more words."

"After all, this is not an activity organized by the school, but something we planned privately."

"You may not feel it deeply, but for teachers, the pressure is still very high. If anything happens to any of you, it will be a risk that teachers cannot afford."

"So during this class trip, everyone must pay attention to safety and obey the instructions of the class leader. No private actions are allowed. Do you understand?" "Understood!"

Everyone was very enthusiastic and the response was quite loud.

The people in the next door Class 7 were puzzled, wondering what was wrong with Class 8 and why they were so excited about issuing a consent form for subject selection.

……

After school, after having a meal in the cafeteria, Li Luo said, "We just finished the exam this week, so we won't organize a study group today. Everyone should go home and sign the consent form for choosing the subject."

"Will you come back in the evening?" Yan Zhusheng asked in a low voice.

"You're not going home?" Li Luo asked puzzledly.

"I asked my mother's assistant, and she said that my mother would be at home in the afternoon, but would leave at around three o'clock," said Yan Zhusheng.

"Xixi and I probably won't be back tonight." Li Luo said after thinking for a while, "My mom asked us to stay back for one night."

"Ok."

After lunch, several people put on their backpacks, walked out of the school gate together, and then said goodbye to each other.

Li Luo and Ying Chanxi took the bus home and arrived at the gate of Jincheng Community.

However, the two did not rush back to the community, but walked to the door of the original breakfast shop opposite the community.

At this time, the breakfast shop no longer existed. Not only had the doorplate been changed to "Rekindle Culture", the interior had also been renovated and turned into a very bright office.

Li Luo pushed the door open and walked in, followed by Ying Chanxi.

As soon as you enter the door, the first thing you see is a front desk reception desk with two small sofas and a coffee table next to it.

After turning the corner and entering the cubicle office, Li Luo saw three people working there.

In addition to Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong, Li Guoru is also here.

"Hey, you're here?" Li Guoru smiled and said after seeing Li Luo, "Did you just get out of school?"

"Yeah." Li Luo called out hello, uncle, and put his schoolbag on the sofa beside him.

Ying Chanxi also greeted him obediently, and then sat quietly on the sofa.

Li Luo took out the subject selection consent form and had Lin Xiuhong sign it, and the matter was settled.

Then he started talking about the summer class trip.

As a result, when this was said, Li Guohong and the others did not react much, after all, they knew it before, but Ying Chanxi immediately frowned and whispered to Li Luo beside him: "When did you plan to travel in groups?"

"Ahem...I just prepared it recently."

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"Um...you are from Class 1, not Class 8."

"If you're not from Class 8, you can't go?" Ying Chanxi bit her lip and said angrily, "I want to go too."

"Our schedule is from Friday to Sunday," Li Luo said, "You have to attend the competition class on Friday."

"Then can't I go on Saturday?" Ying Chanxi said angrily, "The place where your groups are going is far away?"

"It's not far, it only takes about an hour to drive." Li Luo curled his lips, "But there's no need, it's only three days and two nights, and I'll be back soon."

"I don't care." Ying Chanxi pouted and said, "I want to go too."

"You don't have classes on Friday?"

"I can take a day off."

"Be good, just focus on your studies." Li Luo touched her head and comforted her.

After being touched on the head, Ying Chanxi stopped talking for a moment, but he was still a little sulky, especially when he thought that Yan Zhusheng was also in Class 8 and would definitely go with them. Ying Chanxi felt a little sour in his heart, and his hands were a little itchy.

"Speaking of which." At this time, Li Guoru suddenly said, "I have a friend in the Writers Association, named Sun Jingchun, who was the host of your symposium before. Do you still remember him?"

"Oh, I remember." Li Luo nodded. "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing serious." Li Guoru laughed, "He just asked me to ask you privately, saying that the leader of the Provincial Writers Association asked you to apply to join the Writers Association, but there has been no news. I want to ask you what your intention is and whether you still want to join."

"This?" Li Luo blinked, then scratched his head, "I forgot about it."

Li Guoru: “…”

Seeing that this kid looked as if he had really forgotten about it, Li Guoru was speechless.

Recalling that in order to join the Writers Association a few years ago, he wrote his own memoirs, asked someone to polish it, then found connections to publish it, and spent his own money to buy sales, and only then was he able to barely get into the Writers Association to have a try.

As a result, Li Luo was personally invited verbally by his leader, but he forgot about it the moment he turned around!
Comparing yourself to others will really make you angry.

However, due to a series of events related to Li Luo, Li Guoru has not been very interested in the Writers Association recently.

After asking, he just gave Sun Jingchun one more reminder: "You can print out an application form, fill it out and send it directly. I will let him know when the time comes."

After receiving Li Luo's affirmative answer, Li Guoru stopped talking about this matter and instead asked about the future development plans of their company, Chongran Culture.

Li Luo doesn't have any development plan at all. It's nothing more than a shell company.

It is mainly used to avoid taxes legally and reasonably, and to give my parents something to do.

Seeing that he didn't seem to have any ideas, Li Guoru didn't ask any more questions and just said, "Anyway, I'm on a temporary assignment here. I'm too lazy to go to the Writers Association recently, so it's nice to come here and enjoy the air conditioning."

"It's just that there are not enough people, just your parents. It would be better if there were more people."

"Otherwise you'll just sit here and play chess with your dad, who sucks at chess."

Hearing this, Lin Xiuhong on the side had an idea, and then asked: "Why don't we ask Xuefeng to come over? She seems to be looking for a job again recently. I think it's better for her to come here to keep her company. Didn't my brother say before that if you pay her a little more salary, it can actually help deduct taxes?"

"Oh, that's right." Li Guoru nodded, then laughed, "Then go ask and get four people together. Then I'll get a mahjong machine and we can play mahjong."

"Oh, that's great." When Lin Xiuhong heard that she could play mahjong, her eyes lit up and she immediately nodded and agreed.

Li Luo, who was standing next to him, coughed twice, then asked in a low voice: "Uncle, is it legal to pay people wages to avoid taxes like this?"

"What are you worried about?" Li Guoru rolled his eyes. "As long as the position really exists, is needed for the normal operation of the company, and the salary level meets the regulations, it's fine. Of course, it's impossible to create a fictitious position."

"Your second aunt used to work as a cleaner. We just happen to be short of a cleaner here, so let her come and work as a cleaner. A few thousand a month is reasonable."

"This is a normal job-setting expense, just like your father is now the general manager, and I am the financial manager."

After hearing what Li Guoru said, Li Luo felt relieved. Then he asked curiously, "What about my mother? What's her job?"

"I'm the HR manager." Lin Xiuhong covered her mouth and said with a smile, "I never thought I could be a white-collar worker in my life."

Li Luo was also happy to hear this, then he looked at Ying Chanxi and patted her on the shoulder: "If you can't find a job after graduation, just look for my mom, okay? Just come to her for an interview."

Ying Chanxi rolled his eyes at him and asked casually, "What position should I apply for?"

"Secretary." Li Luo patted his chest and pointed at himself, "I just need a secretary to serve tea and water."

As soon as these words came out, Ying Chanxi's face turned red. Before he could say anything, Lin Xiuhong beside him slapped him in the face: "Go away! What are you talking about? Why do you need a secretary just to type? Aren't you ashamed?"

Seeing Lin Xiuhong speaking up for him like this, Ying Chanxi pursed his lips and felt a little moved.

Li Luo chuckled twice, dodged his mother's series of palm strikes, stood up, twisted his body, walked around the office, and nodded with great satisfaction.

This was originally supposed to be the dining area for customers of the breakfast shop, but now it has been renovated into an office.

In the southeast corner of the office, the kitchen of the previous breakfast shop is still there, but after being renovated, it has become much cleaner and brighter.

Usually, Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong come down to work in the morning, so they don't have to go home to cook at noon or in the evening. They can get their work done directly in the office, which is very convenient.

For this purpose, Li Guohong also specially equipped a refrigerator in the office, which is very convenient for storing food and fruits.

The days suddenly became comfortable.

Looking at the changes in his family today, Li Luo was very pleased. After seeing the breakfast shop, which had not changed for many years in his previous life, undergo a huge transformation, he finally truly experienced the joy of changing his family's destiny.

And just when everyone is having fun here.

the other side.

Yan Zhusheng took a taxi and was also heading home.
