"Sister, is this your house?"
"Yes, it was a gift from your brother-in-law." Chu Yu poured her a glass of water.
"Wow, my brother-in-law is so generous! How much is this house worth? I've only ever seen houses like this on TV."
"One hundred thousand."
"What? One hundred thousand!"
Chu Xiang spat out a mouthful of water, her eyes nearly popping out of their sockets. She'd never heard of such a large sum of money in her entire life. What did 100,000 yuan even mean?
Is this bungalow really worth that much money?
Dai Donglin and her sister aren't even married yet, and she just gave it away like that?
"My brother-in-law is so generous! He's so rich. To spend 100,000 on a house, how much money does he have?"
Chu Yu didn't know how much money Dai Donglin had. "You don't need to envy others. Your book series has sold over 600,000 copies. It will definitely sell even more when it's reprinted next year. You've also earned quite a bit in royalties."
Chu Xiang's royalties are all with Chu Yu, so she doesn't need them. Besides, if it weren't for her sister's investment, her book wouldn't have been published. They're sisters, so money doesn't matter.
"Sis, I've written part of my new book. I'll revise it a bit and it'll be published soon. The new book's popularity will boost sales of the old book too. I'm aiming to sell a million copies of both books next year!"
"One million copies isn't enough! Two million would be more like it!"
Chu Yu wasn't lying. The TV series is set to start filming next year, generating a lot of buzz. She plans to turn Chu Xiang's book series into a major IP. In the 1980s, the TV series market was still largely untapped, and she's confident she can make it happen.
However, the matter of filming the TV series still needs to be discussed with Chu Xiang. Chu Yu briefly explained the progress of the TV series.
Chu Xiang found it unbelievable. It was already incredible that her casually written book could sell so many copies, let alone be adapted into a TV series. After the TV series aired, she would become a celebrity, something she never dared to dream of.
"Sis, how could I possibly object to you investing in a TV series? The book you gave me has such a great plan, the TV series will definitely exceed expectations, so just go for it! I believe in you!"
