Wang Yi's outline + Xiang Wan Bu Wan's god-tier writing skill and rhythm can perfectly replicate the legend of "The Untamed" from his previous life!
By then, Meiyou Novel will have its first SSS-rated novel that's massively popular across the entire internet and goes viral beyond its niche!
With the explosive popularity of "The Untamed," the Meiyou 4.0 update and the official launch of Meiyou Novel will proceed without any issues!
Soon, Editor-in-Chief Kutcha replied:
"Boss, I'm also following Xiang Wan Bu Wan. Her foundation is among the best, no worse than a top author, but the plot is a bit weak. I plan to mentor her personally and cultivate her. As for her information, I asked Editor Sun this afternoon."
It was Sun Ruyue who signed Xiang Wan Bu Wan.
Afterward, Kutcha sent over Xiang Wan Bu Wan's information.
Wang Yi glanced at it:
Xiang Wan Bu Wan, real name Yu Wanwan, female, 17 years old, veteran novel enthusiast, dropped out of high school, later went to the imperial capital to work...
She originally intended to forge a career with her passion, but found she had a bit of social anxiety and disliked dealing with people.
So, she decided to utilize her talent, started writing novels, and submitted them to Sun Ruyue.
Sun Ruyue saw that her writing skill was considerable, and despite the thin plot, still signed her, thinking that one day there might be a surprise.
However, there was still no progress on the plot, but her writing style made even the editors feel inferior.
Later, Sun Ruyue even gave up on Xiang Wan Bu Wan, until she joined Meiyou and, while going through her contact list, remembered her again and brought her into Meiyou.
Considering her new book's excellent writing and slight plot improvement, she was given a basic guarantee of 10 yuan per thousand words...
Sun Ruyue's evaluation of Xiang Wan Bu Wan: first-class writing skill, first-class rhythm, seventh-class plot; a rough jade that can be carved, but no idea where to start.
Kutcha's evaluation: the skill of a five-star chef, but only knows how to cook plain noodles in clear broth...
Wang Yi smiled looking at their evaluations.
This evaluation is spot on!
Many top authors' writing skills aren't as good as hers, nor is their rhythm control, but her plot is truly bland.
As Kutcha said, no matter how good the cooking skill, if it's just clear broth and plain noodles, it's completely meaningless.
But such a person is exactly what Wang Yi needs.
After all, Wang Yi has already written the general outline and chapter outlines for "The Untamed."
Xiang Wan Bu Wan just needs to follow Wang Yi's chapter outlines and write them out one by one with her god-tier writing skill and rhythm, and it will be perfect!
This can definitely be done.
Furthermore, Xiang Wan Bu Wan is currently living in poverty, so if we offer a high signing bonus + royalties later, she'll sign the contract!
Thinking this, Wang Yi directly sent a message to Kutcha:
"Meiyou Novel's in-office writers in the imperial capital can also start preparations, modeled after the Jizhou branch's in-office writers. Then, have Xiang Wan Bu Wan go to Meiyou Novel headquarters, sign her, make her the first in-office writer, provide her with food and lodging.
Also, create an outline for a hit custom novel for her to try her hand at, priced at 20 yuan per thousand words! If she's good, she'll enter the God-tier Seed Project!"
This God-tier Seed Project is Meiyou Novel's god-making plan!
But before that, she needs to write a custom novel first to test her abilities!
Only if her ability passes can she be given "The Untamed" to write.
If her ability doesn't pass, then she won't be able to handle this immense fortune.
Kutcha quickly replied:
"Okay, Boss, I'll contact her right away! She's very short on money right now, so she won't refuse free food and lodging, and a buyout price of 20 yuan per thousand words!"
In 2011, a buyout price of 20 yuan per thousand words was a very decent price.
The next morning, Wang Yi drove his Cayenne straight to Lin Shu's house.
Wu Shuang, meanwhile, drove Wang Qing's Santana, following behind.
Wu Shuang's discreet protection wouldn't affect Wang Yi and Lin Shu's date.
After all, if they were in one car with Wu Shuang driving, Wang Yi and Lin Shu would feel awkward even kissing and hugging.
Wang Yi sighed to himself:
'I need to buy another car, preferably one with a partition between the driver's cabin and the back seat! That way, there's absolute privacy, and the front and back won't affect each other!'
Lin Shu was already waiting downstairs, eagerly anticipating his arrival.
Seeing Wang Yi arrive, she bounced over to him.
As soon as she got in the car, Lin Shu opened her arms and pounced: "Hug!"
Wang Yi smiled, hugged Lin Shu, and after a passionate kiss, they separated.
Wang Yi took a bag from the back seat:
"A gift for you!"
"Thank you."
Lin Shu smiled sweetly, gave him a fragrant kiss, and then opened the bag:
"SK2 skincare set, CPB set, I like them. Why are there two sets of each!"
"The other set is for Auntie!"
Wang Yi said with a smile.
"Mmm-hmm! Oh, and the latest Sony camera, it hasn't even been released domestically yet!"
"And... this is... a Nintendo 3DS! And it's the newly released pink version! Plus Mario and Pokémon!"
Lin Shu was utterly thrilled:
"I love it so much, hehe."
In these days, the Nintendo 3DS was the most powerful handheld game console; as for the Switch and similar, they wouldn't be released until six years later.
"As long as you like it,"
Wang Yi said with a smile.
"I originally planned to buy you an iPhone 4S, but it's only releasing on October 5th. As for its market launch, it'll probably be mid-month. In China, it'll be even later, possibly after New Year's Day."
"Yeah, it's not a domestic first release; typically, a third-round release is good enough," Lin Shu nodded:
"It's fine, my iPhone 4 still works well. I really like these gifts my junior prepared. I love you!"
Saying this, Lin Shu gave him another fragrant kiss.
She was becoming increasingly intimate with Wang Yi now.
Wang Yi was in a great mood; at this rate, the great harmony would naturally follow.
Just as Wang Yi was letting his thoughts run wild, Lin Shu frowned slightly:
"Naughty junior, you're thinking bad things again!"
"..."
Wang Yi was speechless:
"Don't talk nonsense, am I that kind of person?"
"Aren't you?"
Lin Shu said earnestly.
"..."
Wang Yi felt a bit tired; sure enough, a man's little thoughts truly couldn't be hidden from a girl.
Lin Shu placed her hand on Wang Yi's mouth:
"No more thinking shy thoughts now, come on, let's go to Hongyegu!"
Wang Yi nodded, just about to say,
"Hongyegu is indeed most beautiful this season."
Unexpectedly, Lin Shu changed the subject:
"I heard the stewed pheasant at Hongyegu is delicious!"
Wang Yi: "..."
Alright, he thought Lin Shu was going to Hongyegu to see the hillsides full of red leaves.
Turns out it was to eat stewed pheasant!
Oh little rich girl, little rich girl, when money loses its appeal to you, only gourmet food holds some temptation.
Indeed, most people work hard to make money, toiling their entire lives for it.
Lin Shu, born with a silver spoon in her mouth, could do nothing and still be worth hundreds of millions, so she certainly didn't need to worry about money.
To put it simply, she wouldn't be able to spend all of her parents' assets in this lifetime.
As a result, the little rich girl fell in love with gourmet food!
The problem is, the little rich girl doesn't get fat, or rather, the fat grows in all the right places.
170cm tall, 55kg, and an excellent physique.
A slim waist, slender legs, appearing very thin, yet curvaceous where it counts.
With this figure and proportions, gaining another five kilograms wouldn't be a problem at all, perhaps even making her more voluptuous.
Wang Yi drove straight to Hongyegu.
Behind them, Wu Shuang quickly followed in the Santana.
Lin Shu pouted:
"The one behind us, always following, is that a bodyguard?"
Wang Yi nodded:
"Yes, her name is Wu Shuang. She's specifically to protect us."
"Mmm-hmm, junior is a big boss now, so bodyguards must be arranged!"
Lin Shu nodded:
"From now on, take them whenever we go out, even on our dates, we can't be careless."
"Okay!"
Wang Yi replied:
"In a few days, I'll find you another reliable bodyguard to pick you up and drop you off at school every day, and protect you!"
"Alright!"
Lin Shu agreed.
Anything Wang Yi arranged for her, she wouldn't refuse!
The journey was very slow.
There was no way around it; Hongyegu in autumn is inherently the most beautiful, and it was packed with people.
Coupled with the Golden Week holiday in October, the result was predictable.
Before even reaching the scenic area, traffic jams began.
What was originally an hour's drive ended up taking over two hours and they still hadn't arrived.
Fortunately, Lin Shu was with him, talking to him along the way, then taking snacks, fruit, and juice from her bag to feed Wang Yi.
By the time they reached Hongyegu, it was already eleven o'clock.
After parking the car, Wang Yi suggested:
"There are a lot of people today, I guess we'll have to queue for the stewed pheasant, so why don't we go eat first?"
"Okay, okay!"
As soon as the stewed pheasant was mentioned, Lin Shu's eyes lit up.
It was clear that Hongyegu itself was secondary; the stewed pheasant was the main attraction.
"Let's go!"
Wang Yi and Lin Shu headed straight up the mountain.
Behind them, Wu Shuang followed.
The three sat at a table, and because they arrived early, the pheasant was served quickly.
Wu Shuang didn't speak much; Lin Shu smiled at her but didn't say anything further.
Just watching Wang Yi and Lin Shu feed each other, Wu Shuang was a bit speechless:
"They're practically full from all this 'dog food'!"
"But this stewed pheasant is really delicious!"
So, Wang Yi and Lin Shu flirted, while Wu Shuang focused on eating!
Even the old man running the restaurant couldn't help but chuckle.
By the time the three finished eating, the outside was already full of people waiting for a table.
During peak hours, one would have to wait at least an hour.
After all, pheasant stews slowly! And turnover is slow too!
"Xiaoyi, you're still so smart! If we had been an hour later, we would've had to queue for just as long!"
Lin Shu praised him.
"Ah, this is all experience,"
Wang Yi sighed.
"Huh, have you brought other girls here before?"
Lin Shu asked faintly.
"Don't talk nonsense, there's no such thing, I brought my cousin!"
Wang Yi blurted out.
In his previous life, he had come here with Song Sining, also in October, also to Hongyegu, and also to this very restaurant.
That time, they entered the shop at twelve, and waited until past one, their stomachs rumbling with hunger, before finally getting a table...
Then, Wang Yi looked at Lin Shu, thinking:
'Something's wrong, the little rich girl is starting to suspect me! What's going on?'
'Before, whatever I said, the little rich girl would believe!'
Wang Yi naturally didn't know that because of Lin Jianye's self-revelation, Lin Shu had also started to wonder if Wang Yi was truly busy or just making excuses.
After all, her dad had messed up; he was busy with work every day, had no time to accompany her mom, and it turned out he was busy fishing...
This made Lin Shu inevitably more suspicious.
But soon, she was captivated by the beautiful scenery of Hongyegu:
"Wow, so beautiful, so beautiful!"
Wang Yi also felt delighted:
"Hongyegu's mountains are picturesque, with red leaves covering the hills. Especially from October to November, it's truly breathtaking and has been rated as one of Xiaguo's Top Ten Autumn Sights!"
"Top Ten Autumn Sights? Such a high evaluation?"
Lin Shu was a bit surprised.
"Of course, it's just that Hongyegu is relatively low-key, so outsiders don't know about it,"
Wang Yi said with a smile.
"But this is perfect; if too many people came and it became a viral attraction, you'd only see crowds."
A typical case of hoping one's hometown becomes popular, but not too popular!
"Exactly, with too many people, even the most beautiful scenery becomes uninteresting!"
Lin Shu deeply agreed.
Like Wang Yi, she didn't like bustling crowds.
"However, this Hongyegu is really good. Green fields in spring, flying waterfalls in summer, red leaves in autumn, ice and snow in winter. Different scenery all year round, suitable for enjoying the view and the moon,"
Wang Yi said.
Lin Shu immediately added:
"Also suitable for stewed pheasant!"
Wang Yi: "..."
Wu Shuang: "..."
"Haha, little rich girl, can you get any cuter?"
Wang Yi chuckled in amusement.
"It's naturally delicious!"
Lin Shu felt she was right!
"Yes, everything you say is right!"
Hiking, enjoying autumn, admiring red leaves!
After eating barbecue again, it was already eight in the evening when they returned to the county town.
After taking Lin Shu home, they kissed in the car before parting ways.
Upstairs, Lin Jianye's fists tightened again:
"That kid is bullying my daughter again, I..."
"Old Lin, calm down, Xiao Shu and him are dating, it's all normal!"
"Yes, normal, normal! But the more I think about it, the angrier I get!"
Lin Jianye huffed.
"What's the point of being angry? Why don't you go fishing?"
Zheng Rou teased.
Lin Jianye's mouth twitched: "..."
In the end, he chose to shut up.
Lin Shu returned home in a great mood, carrying a bag of gifts.
"Look how happy you are, what gifts did Wang Yi buy you?"
Zheng Rou asked curiously.
"So many!"
Lin Shu opened her bag and laid out the SK2, CPB, camera, and game console:
"Mom, these two sets are for you!"
"Alright, he has a conscience, knowing I like these two brands, heh heh heh."
Zheng Rou was in a great mood; these two sets of cosmetics added up to over ten thousand yuan, so speaking up for Wang Yi wasn't in vain.
Looking at Lin Jianye again, Zheng Rou couldn't help but feel a bit resentful:
"Unlike some people, who didn't even bring me any gifts when they went abroad."
Lin Jianye's mouth twitched: "..."
'Is this Wang Yi guy my nemesis?'
'Whenever Wang Yi is involved, nothing good happens to me!'
The next day, Wang Yi and Lin Shu went to the mall again and had a great time at the arcade.
Unexpectedly, a minivan stopped at the entrance of Liangcai Garment Factory, blocking the door!
At this moment, Liangcai Garment Factory was still carrying out its final production.
According to the plan, after using up the last batch of materials today and shipping out the finished products, they would start relocating tomorrow and the day after!
All equipment and workers would be moved to Qiuyun Garment Factory.
The factory director there was also Wei Ming, an old acquaintance, so everyone felt at ease.
"What are you doing?"
Old Man Feng's expression changed slightly, and he opened the window:
"This is a garment factory, don't block the door!"
"Block the door?"
Yin Zhixing poked his head out, giving a cold smile:
"Old Feng, have you forgotten your old master so quickly?"
"Yin Zhixing!"
Old Man Feng's face changed drastically:
"What are you doing here!"
"What am I doing?"
Yin Zhixing was furious:
"That guy Wang Yi swindled my factory away, what do you think I'm doing? Of course, I'm taking my factory back!"
Without the demolition, the factory selling was just selling, money was most important.
Now that it's being demolished, it's rumored to be compensated over ninety million, how can that be?
I must get the factory back!
That's over ninety million!
He's never seen so much money in his life!
Yin Zhixing opened the door and got out, followed by a few other people with unfriendly expressions:
"Where's Wang Yi? Tell him to come out and talk about the factory!"
