‘At the very least fifteen thousand.’ Zhang Yixing smiled.

For ‘Last Week’s Antique’, he wasn’t looking at it with an editor’s eye, but rather as a reader, immersed in it.

He found that the fifty thousand words of Lin Chuan’s new book, whether in terms of the professionalism of antique forgery or the tension of the plot, were top-notch.

If it could maintain this standard and reach fifteen thousand Average Subscription, there really was a chance for a film adaptation.

‘Thank you, editor-in-chief.’

Youyou pursed her lips, her face filled with smiles.

‘The film adaptation hasn’t even been recommended yet, don’t rush the thanks.’ Editor-in-chief Zhang Yixing smiled, then added, ‘If Lin Chuan can have two works adapted into films, and they’re well received, it could greatly boost your performance.’

Youyou’s eyes lit up instantly, ‘How much of a boost?’

An editor’s performance is actually about how much revenue they can generate for the web novel site, and film adaptations, especially those that become popular, can significantly enhance an editor’s performance much more than several ten-thousand Average Subscription works could ever compare.

After all, the phrase ‘IP is king’ is circulated in the web novel circles.

A 19-year-old genius writer who reached the platinum tier, his novel released across the entire network is conservatively estimated to have IP rights fees amounting to hundreds of millions, which is incomparable to mere royalties.

That’s why they say ‘novel IP derivative’ is another growth path for web novel writers.

After some thought, editor-in-chief Zhang Yixing smiled and said, ‘Helping you aim for the chief editor position should be no problem.’

‘Chief editor!?’

Youyou was taken aback, her pupils shrinking, her delicate face full of surprise.

If Lin Chuan’s two adaptations do well, she could aim for the chief editor position… hiss!

What do you call this?

Relying on someone else’s power? Success by association? Or when one man gains the Tao, his poultry and dogs ascend to heaven?

Pffft!

For a moment, Youyou couldn’t think of an appropriate idiom to describe her relationship with Lin Chuan.

In the end.

Youyou left the office with a heart full of joy, stepping light-footedly, humming a tune, and sent Lin Chuan a message:

‘Lin Chuan, you really are my treasure!’
