During the Spring Festival, apart from playing, Xiang Nan just writes.
He has now accumulated 100,000 yuan. In two thousand years, this money could buy a house in a second-tier city.
However, Xiang Nan will not be satisfied, because 100,000 yuan is just the beginning for him. If he wanted to make money, he had to make at least 100 million.
After school starts in February, it will be Zhao Ye's birthday.
Under Xiang Nan's suggestion, everyone pooled together money to help Zhao Ye buy a pair of AIR JODAN.
He knew that Zhao Ye's sneakers didn't fit his feet well, so his feet were worn out for a while, which affected his daily training.
Coupled with the fact that his father was laid off at that time, the family suffered financial difficulties. Zhao Ye was very sad about this, and even quarreled with everyone.
Xiang Nan couldn't give Zhao Ye money directly, so he could only give him this pair of sneakers, hoping to make him happier.
"Airjodan?! Damn, is it real or not?" Zhao Ye was pleasantly surprised after receiving the pair of sneakers.
At the time, these were the best sneakers, and a pair cost more than 800 yuan. He once wanted it very much, but because it was too expensive, he was still reluctant.
I didn't expect the big guy to understand his mind so much, it really moved him.
"Of course it's true." Xiang Nan laughed, "Fortunately, everyone has some lucky money after the new year. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to afford such expensive shoes.
Zhao Ye, you should play well if you wear such expensive shoes. This Nike Cup is up to you! "
"Okay, no problem." Zhao Ye said happily.
…
Time flies by.
The next three, four, and five months passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period, in several monthly exams, Xiang Nan was always the first in his grade, with a score of over 700.
Such results also make the school, teachers and parents very satisfied.
And in June, another piece of good news came.
Chunfeng Literature and Art Publishing House wants to publish "The Incident of Young Cha Biliang Wounding People" written by Xiang Nan.
This novel has been serialized in the "Sprout" magazine since last year, and now it has been serialized for twelve issues, each issue has 15,000 words, and has received a good response from readers.
Chunfeng Literature and Art Publishing House saw its popularity, so it wanted to compile it into a book and publish it.
Naturally, Xiang Nan would not refuse this.
So, the publishing house sent staff to discuss the details of publishing with Xiang Nan, mainly the issue of remuneration.
Because Xiang Nan is underage at this time, only seventeen years old, and does not have the ability to sign a contract alone, so the publishing contract must be signed by the parents before it will be valid.
So Xiang Nan confessed the matter to his father and mother.
Chen Jianjun and Zhang Xiaohua found out at this time that their son was secretly writing novels, and they had already made a name for themselves. They couldn't help being a little surprised.
"Son, how could you do this, what a waste of study." Zhang Xiaohua began to complain after hearing this.
"Mom, why am I delaying my studies?" Xiang Nan spread his hands.
He is the first in grade now, is there any student who studies better than him?
Zhang Xiaohua was stunned, waved his hands and said, "That's not okay. You are a student, the key is to study, you know? Writing novels is too time-consuming and energy-consuming."
"Son, how much money will you make after this book is published?" Chen Jianjun asked curiously.
"It shouldn't be much money, maybe two to three hundred thousand." Xiang Nan thought for a while.
In the new century, the sales of physical books are no longer very good. And youth pain literary novels like "The Murder of the Young Cha Biliang" have a relatively narrow audience.
That is, middle and high school students in the second grade like it, but people who have gone to college may not like it, so tens of thousands of copies are sold. Xiang Nan didn't expect to sell a hit.
The sum of their lifetime savings doesn't have that much money. Two hundred thousand yuan is really not a small amount.
"Okay, why don't we meet again." Chen Jianjun persuaded Zhang Xiaohua, "My son is capable and shouldn't be buried. Isn't there someone who wrote a good composition and was recommended?"
Zhang Xiaohua thought for a while, and finally nodded, "It's just writing, but you can't delay your study. Otherwise, you will stop for me immediately."
"Got it." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
Subsequently, accompanied by his parents, Xiang Nan signed a publishing agreement with Chunfeng Literature and Art Publishing House, and received an advance payment of 50,000 yuan for the manuscript.
Xiang Nan didn't keep the money, and handed it all over to his parents.
Chen Jianjun, Zhang Xiaohua and his wife got such a large sum of money out of thin air, so they were naturally happy, and they had smiles on their faces even for a few days.
But they were happy, they still told Xiang Nan that he must study hard and strive to be admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University.
Xiang Nan agreed one by one.
…
Entering June, the Nike Cup starts.
The experimental middle school basketball team fought all the way and advanced to the finals, with very good results.
But in the finals, they will face No. 2 Middle School.
The Experimental Middle School has already lost to the No. 2 Middle School once, so now facing this powerful opponent, everyone's morale is relatively low.
For this reason, Su Kate approached Xiang Nan, "The Nike Cup final is about to be played, I hope you can join the ball game and win glory for the school together."
"Farewell, I haven't touched a ball for almost a year." Xiang Nan waved his hand.
"Don't be humble, I know your skills are still there." Su Kai smiled, "Slam dunk from the free throw line, not everyone can do it."
"Then you have to think about it, if I go up, you will have nothing to do with it." Xiang Nan thought for a while and said, "If I steal your limelight, then you are not allowed to cry."
"If you really have the ability, you can grab it. I'm afraid you won't." Su Kai laughed.
"Okay, then I'll play with you." Xiang Nan nodded and said.
Subsequently, Xiang Nan joined the experimental middle school basketball team.
"This is Chen Xun, from Class 1, Grade 2, our team's new forward." Su Kai introduced.
"Okay, buddy, you're finally here." Zhao Ye said happily when he saw it.
The other players looked at Xiang Nan, but they felt strange.
Because Xiang Nan has not appeared on the court for a year, his reputation has declined significantly. Especially the freshmen in the first year of high school didn't have much impression of Xiang Nan.
"Is he really good?"
"It looks quite tall, but I don't know how to use technology?"
"Let's try playing, don't be a fake, it's not useful."
They talked one after another.
"Chen Xun, did you see that these boys are not convinced, it seems that you have to show your skills." Su Kai looked at Xiang Nan and said.
Xiang Nan nodded, "Then come."
Afterwards, the team was divided into two groups for confrontational training.
And Xiang Nan's performance shocked all the team members at once.
Steal the ball, pass, layup, three-pointer, rebound, slam dunk, defense...Xiang Nan can't do anything, with fast speed, good technique, and strong physical strength, he is almost impeccable.
The members of the experimental middle school basketball team were stunned and admired.
"Fuck, why didn't such a great master introduce the school team?" Everyone was surprised.
