Chapter 704: Chapter 704: Is Bai Chuwei a Descendant of Mr. Bai? Chapter 704: Chapter 704: Is Bai Chuwei a Descendant of Mr. Bai? As Director Li hesitated, a new message came from the other side, which still showed no signs of compromise, so infuriating it would make one’s blood boil–way too arrogant.
[Your Ancestor: Just to save you future regret, I’ll give you a piece of advice, 60 million is definitely a fair price.]
Xue Qiu felt it was truly a kind-hearted hamster. If it had been the ancestor, it would have been a case of take it or leave it–and if not, get lost. Any regret in the future would have nothing to do with her.
That was absolutely impossible.
Director Li couldn’t help but laugh and cry at these words.
That was 60 million after all, not just 600 bucks. And what did they mean by future regret? What would he have to regret so intensely?
No matter how excellent the continuation of the work was, it still couldn’t escape from being “a continuation.”
Xue Qiu sighed and continued to press on the palmtop computer.
[Your Ancestor: The Real*Original.]
Director Li was suddenly puzzled. What was this supposed to mean?
The biggest complaint about this author in the comment section was constantly changing the “derivatives” tag to “original,” which had been relentlessly mocked by Mr. Bai’s fans in the comments.
Director Li switched back to the Yuewen Academy app and saw that the author’s name was clearly written with the character “Bai.”
A thought suddenly struck Director Li, causing his heart to skip a beat…
Mr. Bai lived over two hundred years ago; he must have died long ago.
Could it be that… Director Li took a sharp breath and, giving up on typing, he hastily sent a voice message: “May I know your honorable surname?”
[Your Ancestor: Surname Bai, female.]
Director Li suddenly slapped his thigh and got excited, muttering to himself, “Could this Miss Bai be a descendant of Mr. Bai? Could it be that Mr. Bai actually finished the entire book two hundred years ago, but passed away before the latter part could be published?”
That was the only explanation!
Mr. Bai couldn’t possibly have lived over two hundred years to continue writing the latter parts, but his descendants could help by typing the original manuscript into a computer!
Everything was explained, the original manuscript.
An original manuscript unknown to the whole world!
No wonder, no wonder he always felt like he was reading Mr. Bai’s original writings when looking at this work. Could it be that it was indeed written by the same person?!
Considering this possibility, would he regret it in the future? He’d be angry enough to jump into a river.
Director Li, caught up in excitement, suddenly stood up, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and started to smoke, pacing around the room while puffing rings of smoke.
Mr. Bai’s manuscript for the latter part, the Bai Family asking for 60 million in copyright fees, expensive?
Currently, a super famous and popular author could get a sky-high copyright fee of thirty or forty million. For a top-tier author like Mr. Bai, whose fame extends across China and even the globe, would 60 million be too much?
Forget 60 million, even a hundred million would be affordable for a tycoon. The rightful source is novel⁂fire.net
It’s worth mentioning that this book is one of the must-reads for all, aside from the illiterate, with several hundred million fans in China alone!
Previously he had been worried that finding a new continuation would result in even harsher criticism, knowing that even Mr. Liu Guansheng’s continuation didn’t impress everyone. But if it was Mr. Bai’s original manuscript, that would be a different story…
This was charity, not profit-making at all!
“May I have the pleasure of knowing Miss Bai’s full name, and could we discuss this in detail? Which city do you live in? I can fly directly there to talk!”
[Your Ancestor: Bai Chuwei.]
That name sounded so familiar.
