Divine Lucky Star-Chapter 95 - : Brother is Indeed Invincible!
Chapter 95: Chapter 95: Brother is Indeed Invincible!
“Half,” Wang Hao said with a smile. “When I first set it up with him, it was a starting rate of two thousand a month. Once the book could go on sale, if the performance was good, we would split it fifty-fifty. Ten thousand in sales a month? Then each of us would get five thousand. Twenty thousand in sales means ten thousand each, and thirty thousand means fifteen thousand each.”
“This ratio…” The father of the golden sunflower actually wanted more, hoping his son would get the bigger share, naturally aware that his son was the one writing. He thought about asking for a higher price. But after all, he was a father, and he understood one thing – he shouldn’t ruin his child’s business for his own wishes. Since he didn’t understand this internet writing domain, he didn’t look at Wang Hao but turned to the golden sunflower. “Do you think this ratio is fair?”
“Brother Ritian is already very generous,” the golden sunflower said. “Brother Ritian’s plot arrangements and character designs are top-notch. It’s like he’s already set up a great framework, and I just need to fill in the words.”
“Since my son says it’s okay,” the father of the golden sunflower finally sighed deeply. “Kid, I won’t beat around the bush. I can support his writing, but I have a precondition.”
Wang Hao nodded. “Okay, please state your condition.”
The father of the golden sunflower asked, “I give you—well, how long does it take to get to the point of going on sale as you mentioned?”
...
“About three months,” Wang Hao replied.
The father said, “Alright, I’ll give you an extra month. Four months, I want to see results. If it truly makes money, my son will follow your guidance in writing. Of course, when I say this, I mean only in writing. He still has to attend school, as that’s fundamental. So, my condition is, no matter how much money it makes, you can’t let my son neglect his studies.”
“There’s absolutely no problem with that,” Wang Hao replied with a smile and nodded. “You are a very generous father, deserving of respect. I’ll be honest, when we first met, I thought you were quite a depressed drunkard, but now my opinion has changed.”
“You cheeky kid,” the father of the golden sunflower finally showed a smile. “I might be crippled but I’m not crazy, I can’t screw over my own child, can I? But seriously, does writing books make that much money?”
“If you don’t believe me, I can give you this ten thousand yuan as a deposit,” Wang Hao shrugged. “I have that much confidence!”
Damn, I’m gonna cry! The twenty thousand yuan I just got hasn’t even warmed up yet, and now I have to give away half…
But it’s worth the money!
“Okay, I’ll take that bet!” the father of the golden sunflower gritted his teeth. “I hope my decision as a father isn’t wrong! You cheeky kid, don’t leave just yet. If you don’t mind, stay for a meal at my house.”
“That would be great,” Wang Hao patted his belly with a smile. “I’m actually quite hungry, so I really appreciate it.”
The meals were simple – rice, tomatoes and scrambled eggs, shredded potatoes.
Despite the simplicity, Wang Hao ate his fill.
He had finally resolved this concern completely. It wasn’t easy waiting for such an opportunity.
Actually, when Wang Hao first involved the golden sunflower in writing “Break the Heavens,” he feared such issues, which is why he had been rolling the dice daily during this period. Whether it was bad luck or good fortune, he just wanted to connect with him more deeply, to completely eliminate these hidden worries.
If this concern wasn’t addressed, what if, after a while, the golden sunflower suddenly couldn’t write anymore, like today if his family opposed or he was dissatisfied with his share, or if some other issue arose? What then?
Replace the author after the book has gone live? Readers are not fools – the subscriptions would definitely plummet within days. Such a risk was absolutely not worth taking.
Luckily, Kung Fu didn’t disappoint the determined. Wang Hao initially thought that when misfortune struck, there would be an issue with golden sunflower, and he’d deal with it when his luck turned. But he hadn’t expected it to be resolved like this.
Hahaha, Brother Ritian really is invincible, no more worries now!
After dinner, the next steps were easy.
Golden sunflower booted up the computer and showed Wang Hao the manuscript she’d written. He read it carefully, corrected a few typos along the way, and once he’d finished reading, he thoroughly appreciated it. Not bad!
“Not bad at all,” Wang Hao laughed, “the plot flows smoothly without deviation, the setup is sufficient, and the face-slapping is satisfying.”
By then, golden sunflower had already brought over the torn contract, saying, “Brother Ritian, I’ve glued the contract back together, will it do?”
“Let me check,” he took the contract, glanced through it quickly, and found no issues. He immediately pulled out five hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it to golden sunflower: “The contract is fine, here’s your previous manuscript fee. Keep up the good work, you definitely won’t be left wanting in the future.”
“Eh?” golden sunflower was stunned, “Brother Ritian, didn’t you already give me ten thousand yuan? Why are you giving me more?”
“That was just a friendly sponsorship, a tip, you get it?” Being rich is such a great feeling! Wang Hao chuckled and said, “This computer of yours is too old; replace it first. Otherwise, not only is it slow to type, but what if it crashes and all your work is lost? Here, I’m giving this to you, take it!”
“Thank you, Brother Ritian!” golden sunflower took the money, clearly excited, her hands even trembled a bit: “Brother Ritian, I’ll definitely write well in the future. This is the first money I’ve earned, I can finally help out my family!”
This kid is really sensible!

“You’ve written the previous plots very well,” Wang Hao said with a smile, “so I revisited the overall story development and a few key event nodes.”
“Sure, Brother Ritian,” golden sunflower quickly grabbed a pen and notebook from one side, saying, “I’ll jot it down carefully. Otherwise, I’m afraid I’ll forget, and that wouldn’t be good.”
The kid is still very diligent.
Wang Hao was very pleased with golden sunflower’s performance. He smiled, then patted her shoulder: “Well, you’re well-prepared. I’ll start talking now, just let me know if you can’t keep up.”
Golden sunflower nodded, “Okay.”
Wang Hao then organized his thoughts and began explaining the entire world structure of “Break the Heavens”, Golden Finger, and subsequent plot details. The story of Break the Heavens has a majestic and grand setting, a tightly knit structure, and the foreshadowing and clues are also laid out brilliantly. And with a novel of over five million words, it was naturally impossible to explain everything at once, so this time Wang Hao detailed about the next one hundred thousand words in terms of the plot, setups, foreshadowings, and character dynamics.
Once Wang Hao had given a rough outline, golden sunflower was completely floored in admiration.
After recalling everything Wang Hao explained, golden sunflower took a deep breath, looked at her notebook filled with content, and excitedly said, “Brother Ritian, just listening to you, I’ve already got so much inspiration, hehe!”
