Chapter 87 - Chapter 87: Chapter 86 I’m purely chasing a star! (Seeking first subscription) (2/2)
Lin Chuan’s eyes widened.
“Ah?”
The Little Landlady furrowed her brow and quickly realized she had inadvertently accelerated, then spat out, “Master, be serious!”
Lin Chuan didn’t tease Zhang Xinxin any longer and laughed, “Alright, what does the police want with our 720 Studio?”
“They want to collaborate with our studio,” the Little Landlady replied.
“How do they want to collaborate?”
“The specifics haven’t been discussed yet; they want to meet in person to talk in detail.”
“When and where?”
“It’s up to us to decide.”
Lin Chuan thought for a moment and then said, “How about tomorrow?”
“Then I’ll give them a call back in a bit,” the Little Landlady nodded, then turned and asked, “Master, why is the police suddenly looking to collaborate with us?”
Lin Chuan considered for a moment, “Maybe, because my skills are a bit strong.”
The Little Landlady sized Lin Chuan up and down, curling her lip, “Master, are you flexing?”
Lin Chuan slapped his own forehead, “Little Landlady, I’m serious!”
The Little Landlady muttered, “But, the best in our studio is you, that’s the only explanation.”
Lin Chuan grinned, “Alright, get ready for the collaboration with the police, this deal will be the beginning of our studio’s rise.”
“Yes, Chairman!”
The Little Landlady beamed a radiant smile, stood up, walked out of the rental, and then, she turned back to look at Lin Chuan, asking, “Do you have plans for the May Day holiday?”
“Nope, why?”
“Just asking, heeheehee…” the Little Landlady cheerfully went downstairs, getting ready for the collaboration with the police.
Lin Chuan closed the door and sat in front of the computer.
It was already afternoon, the sun was covered by thick clouds, but the remaining heat was still fierce, albeit the old city area seemed a bit cooler.
Lin Chuan took a cup of boiled water, took a sip, his jaw raised thirty degrees, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly as he looked outside the window.
Right now, he had two main focuses for his work.
One was writing books.
Last month, “Swindler” and “This Assassin Is Too Professional” brought in 400,000 in royalties, and this month, “Hacker Kingdom” had an average subscription in and out of China that had already crossed ten thousand, so the royalties should be substantial.
The new professional life experience—”Fraud Salesman” from the KK factory area, the novel “All-In” had been generated, a full 800,000 words.
However, Lin Chuan was in no rush to publish, as he was waiting for the Anti-Fraud Center and Sunshine Film and Television to jointly hold the ‘anti-fraud essay contest.’
Youyou had already hinted at him, it would probably start in May, with generous rewards, and confirmed that excellent works would be adapted into films or TV series.
“Film and television adaptation…”
Lin Chuan murmured, something that was basically every web novelist’s dream.
If it could become a hit show, that would be the greatest recognition for the work from the readers and audience, as well as the greatest recognition for Lin Chuan himself.
The second focus was the studio.
At present, the studio was proceeding steadily and solidly, collaborating with several internet cafes, and the police also showed the intention to collaborate.
Without a doubt, this was the police station’s way of showing goodwill in response to Lin Chuan’s meritorious contributions.
If they could secure the police’s collaboration, then 720 Studio would be on the proper track, entering a phase of vigorous development.
Take-off was imminent!
‘Ring ring ring—’
The phone’s ringtone sounded, Lin Chuan glanced at it.
The caller ID showed: Xia Qingqing.
“Officer Xia, good afternoon,” Lin Chuan answered the phone, smiling.
On the other end, Xia Qingqing laughed very brightly, “Writer Lin, would you honor me with your presence for dinner tonight?”
Half-jokingly, Lin Chuan asked, “Officer Xia, you aren’t arranging a Banquet, are you?”
Xia Qingqing chuckled, “What Banquet? I’m purely star-chasing, I’ll be waiting for you tonight at Riverside Cottage.”
