Today, bookstores all over the country are besieged by readers who want to buy "Everyone Has Gonglian", and for a while, the price of American card paper has increased dramatically.

But the number of books could not match the demand from the crowd. In just one afternoon, there were no books left to buy.

Even if book production agencies print more books at full capacity, they cannot keep up with the fierce demand.

But with the vast wisdom of the working people, this problem was immediately solved, because second-hand pirated copies began to appear openly in front of bookstores.

Because books can be copied, people who bought the books quickly took pictures of the contents page by page with their cameras, and then sold the electronic versions at half the price of the original books or even more.

Before long, with the ability of electronic piracy to make unlimited copies, the originally in-demand Bai Ye authentic books immediately became deserted. If nothing unexpected happened, at least tens of billions of dollars in value would evaporate because of the authentic books.

Bai Ye's pirated books were exported and spread all over the world in just one day.

At this moment, at the party, Vice President Rodriguez said to Bai Ye with a look of regret: "Mr. Bai, it is foreseeable that the piracy of your books will be very rampant. Do you need us to cooperate with the IRS to help crack down on piracy crimes?"

"Piracy? That's indeed a problem." Bai Ye smiled noncommittally, "I just don't know if they'll be interested in my next book."

"The next book?" The eyes of the people around him immediately lit up. After the terrifying effect of this book, could the next book be anything big?

"That's right. My next book, 'Everyone Has a Chance to Practice 2.0', is more than 200% more effective than this one in terms of extending lifespan and increasing strength," Bai Ye said.

200%!!! Everyone at the scene couldn’t help but hold their breath, the effect was too terrifying.

"200%, is it really possible to achieve this level?" Rodriguez said in disbelief.

"Of course, it is expected that human lifespan can be extended to 300 years, but the book is still being written." Bai Ye said, his eyes inadvertently falling on the number 200w years in the lifespan column on his panel.

"Then why the hell are you still here drinking with us? Is it fun to waste time?"

At this moment, everyone at the scene wanted to turn into a reader urging for more updates and lock Bai Ye in a small dark room, but they couldn't do anything because of Bai Ye's strength.

Bai Ye certainly saw through their thoughts. In fact, this so-called "Everyone Has a Skill to Practice 2.0" has far surpassed the original Zixia Divine Art in terms of skills.

This is the best known route of exercising his energy that he derived from himself, relying on the original technique and the spiritual attribute of 4.1, while maintaining the same internal energy as Zixia.

If 1.0 is a weakened version of Zixia, then 2.0 is directly an enhanced version of Zixia's magical power.

Bai Ye expects that within the next year, Renren Yougonglian will be pushed to version 12.0, which means a new version will be released every month.

The current 2.0 is an enhanced version of Zixia's magic power, and the next ones will be Zixia advanced version, Zixia ultimate version, ultimate version s, ss, sss, and so on.

According to his estimation, after a year, with the understanding and analytical ability brought by his spiritual attributes, he might be able to deduce Yue Buqun's Zixia magic skill into the level of an immortal cultivation technique that could prolong one's life for a thousand years.

At the scene, Bai Ye's words were broadcast live to the Internet, which immediately caused an uproar. Some people looked at the books they had just bought and began to regret whether they had bought them too early. If they had known earlier, they would have bought pirated electronic copies.

"Mr. Bai, how long will it take for version 2.0 to come out? For the future of all mankind, please make sure you stay healthy." Rodriguez said with concern.

"It may take half a month to a month to publish, but before that, I have something to ask of you."

Bai Ye did not say it directly, but said in a roundabout way: "Mr. Vice President, everyone will definitely use my "Everyone Has Gong Training" in the future."

"Of course, this is a groundbreaking book. I am even considering adding it to the school curriculum," the president said as a matter of course.

"Then in theory, everyone should buy my book."

"This..." Rodriguez hesitated, "Theoretically, it's true, but you also know that piracy cannot be stopped."

"Since piracy cannot be stopped, why not just transfer money to me directly from everyone's bank account?" Bai Ye finally showed his fangs.

Rodriguez took a breath and said, "Mr. Bai...this, this is not good."

"Isn't that good? The whole world wants to read my book and practice my skills, so shouldn't they pay me copyright fees? I sell it for $15 per copy, which is already a big loss. Do I have to be exploited by pirates?"

Bai Ye smiled and said, "Whether from a moral or legal point of view, it shouldn't be difficult to collect taxes based on the global population at a price of $15 per book."

Bai Ye's words made Rodriguez dumbfounded. My goodness, there are more than 6 billion people in the world, and each of them is forced to pay 15 US dollars for books. You really dare to think of this.

If it weren't for the 2.0 incident, Rodriguez wouldn't even bother to pay attention to Bai Ye's proposal, which was simply a pipe dream.

But this 15 dollars is just a pilot version. There will be a super enhanced version 2.0 later. If he doesn't agree and Bai Ye doesn't issue it, then his position as vice president will be over.

"This, this, this..." Before the live broadcast, Rodriguez was sweating and trembling, saying: "I am just the vice president of the United States. I can't manage other countries."

"Then you can talk about it, let each country manage its own citizens and collect taxes on books." Bai Ye said with a smile.

"Then, those who have already purchased genuine books are at a loss." Rodriguez was still trying to make amends.

"It doesn't matter. Every genuine book has an anti-counterfeiting certification. As long as you provide the certificate, you can get a tax refund later."

Bai Ye smiled, and his 1.4-meter appearance made people feel good about him, but in the eyes of the vice president, Bai Ye's face looked like an ugly capitalist.

"Okay...well, what you said makes sense. I will discuss this matter with Congress when I go back." Rodriguez said helplessly with his head down.

Only then did Bai Ye reveal a satisfied smile.

What belongs to him is absolutely his. He can give it away as a gift, but letting others take advantage of it for nothing is more painful than killing him.

It can be foreseen that from today on, as long as anyone is born on Earth in the Marvel world.

Then from the moment he was born, he would owe Bai Ye $15 for books in his bank account.

Truly achieve this and combat piracy at its root.

As Franklin said: There are only two things in the world that are inevitable, and that is taxes and death! (End of this chapter)
