Feng Di contacted Su Xing and asked her to help forward the promotional Weibo for the "Cultural Relics Migration to the South" documentary and book. Of course, he also took into account the traffic on her Weibo.

But the result was still beyond his expectations.

Regarding the book "Migration of Cultural Relics to the South", the Forbidden City Publishing House had an initial print run of 10,000 copies, but more than 5,000 copies were sold in just three days!

Many netizens who have seen the set of paintings that Su Xing once posted have placed orders.

In addition to fans, there are some big orders that Su Xing doesn’t even know about.

For example, Cao Yang saw Su Xing’s Weibo and clicked on the link to place an order for 10,000 copies.

Turns out there wasn’t that much stock at all!

Cao Yang was very depressed and complained to the customer service. Finally, he placed an order for 1,000 copies.

He planned to use the money to provide benefits to some managers in his family's business so that everyone would raise their ideological awareness.

After placing the order, he showed off to Yao Jiani, who thought he was crazy.

After the two of them argued with each other, Yao Jiani secretly followed Su Xing’s Weibo and secretly placed an order for 100 copies.

In addition to this book, she also bought a lot of the environmental protection picture album that Su Xing had published before, as well as cultural and creative products from the Luoyang Museum.

She wanted to study what this woman Su Xing was doing.

Are these things what attracted He Xu?

In comparison, Tang Wu was relatively rational and restrained. She also placed an order for 100 books, which she donated along with some other school supplies and daily necessities to the mountain school she sponsored.

Shen Bai saw Su Xing’s Weibo and also placed an order for fifty copies.

It's not that he is stingy, it's that he has placed too many orders and there is no one to deliver to.

If he insists on giving it away, he can actually give it away, but I guess many people will think that his behavior is weird and that he has a problem with his brain.

Tian Cheng, Zheng Fei and others have also placed some orders, planning to give them to classmates and friends.

However, what they wanted to collect were the ones signed by Su Xing.

Su Xing has received many messages from friends in the past two days asking her for autographed books.

She also placed an order for a batch herself, signed for each one, and delivered them personally or mailed them to her friends.

Feng Di was shocked when he saw the sales volume of this book in three days!

He quickly asked his superior for permission and prepared to print more books.

Because of the launch of the documentary and book "Cultural Relics Migration to the South", the sales of Su Xing's previous picture album "Only Green Everlasting" were also boosted.

Xia Xiaokui was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.

It is very rare for a charity picture album to have the current sales volume.

A few days later, He Xu got half a day off again.

He picked up his phone, clicked on WeChat, and saw that his girlfriend had sent him a picture of a new book, and his words were filled with joy.

He Xu was also happy for his girlfriend.

Xu: [Congratulations!]

Xu: [Cooperating with Forbidden City Publishing House can greatly enhance your reputation and recognition in the industry. It is not a loss even if you do not participate in the profit sharing of this book. (Emoji: thumbs up)]

Su Xing was taking a lunch break, and he replied immediately after seeing He Xu's message.

Can I not wake up? [Yes, more people have asked me to write for them these days, and they are all more polite. However, I have been very busy recently, and I haven’t met a satisfactory client yet, so I haven’t accepted any orders.]

Can I stay awake: [Are you done? Are you allowed to use your phone?]

Xu: [Take a half-day break.]

Xu: [Is it convenient to video?]

Su Xing didn't reply, but walked directly to the balcony and pressed the video call button.

He Xu immediately answered the video.

The young couple hadn't seen each other for a while, and they couldn't take their eyes off each other on the screen.

He Xu asked: "How have you been lately?"

"Not bad, pretty good." Su Xing looked at her boyfriend and sighed, "You've lost weight..."

"It will be fine after this busy period."

He has been staying up late to work overtime recently, and might be a little haggard. He has tried his best to dress himself up, but his girlfriend still noticed it.

He felt warm inside when his girlfriend noticed the change in him at a glance, but when he saw the distressed look in her eyes, he felt very guilty.

Su Xing asked again: "When will you come back?"

I have to give my boyfriend a good nourishment when he comes back.

He Xu was silent for two seconds, then said apologetically, "Maybe we have to wait a while."

After a pause, he continued, "I may have to go to Jinyang in a few days, and go directly from here."

"That's it...okay."

Su Xing realized that his tone was a little lost, so he immediately cheered up and talked to He Xu about other lighter things.

The two chatted until Su Xing's afternoon class was almost time, and then they reluctantly hung up the video call.

He Xu thought about the chat with his girlfriend for a while, then clicked on Weibo and placed an order for 100 books to support his girlfriend's career.

……

It's already mid-May and Kyoto University has entered the examination month.

The library and study rooms are full of people every day and brightly lit at night. The learning atmosphere throughout the campus is very strong.

For Su Xingxing, the exam was not something that required him to be particularly nervous.

She still lives her life at her own pace, practicing martial arts in the morning, attending classes during the day, painting or hanging out in the lab at night, and taking several comics classes every week.

On this day, the restoration drawing of "Emperor and Empress Worshiping Buddha" that Su Xing had been painting recently was finally completed.

She uploaded it to Weibo.

She painted this restoration picture very delicately and beautifully, with every detail handled very well.

Every time Su Xing uploads a simple promotional painting on Weibo, there are always some keyboard warriors who criticize her for her poor drawing skills and being too childish.

As soon as the restored picture of "Emperor and Empress Worshiping Buddha" was uploaded, those who criticized her painting skills did not dare to post a comment under her post.

[This is so pretty!]

[The painting is so detailed that it feels like the characters are about to walk out of the painting.]

[I didn’t expect that the artist’s previous trip to Longmen Grottoes would have a follow-up, what a pleasant surprise!]

[The pain of the nation and the sorrow of culture. Seeing this restored picture, I feel very complicated...]

[I wonder when the national treasure lost overseas will be able to return home... (Expression: tears in the eyes)]

[The stronger the motherland becomes, the more hope there is for cultural relics to return home. Come on, my country! (Expression: clenched fist)]

[When will the painter come to visit our Yungang Grottoes?]

[We also welcome painters and netizens to visit Mogao Grottoes.]

……

Monday, April 5th.

Su Xing received a transfer of more than 200,000 yuan from China Pictorial Publishing House, which was the royalties for her environmental protection picture album.

For publications that follow a royalty model, the settlement cycle for royalties is quite long, usually more than half a year, and some may even take more than a year to settle.

So it was almost half a year after Su Xing's album was on the market before he received the first payment for his works.

Xia Xiaokui sent a message to Su Xing.

Xiaokui: [Did you receive the manuscript fee?]

Can I not wake up: [Yeah, got it. (Expression: making a yeah gesture)]

Xiao Kui: [This time I’m paying you the royalties for the first 70,000 copies. Actually, your album has sold nearly 90,000 copies so far. I estimate that you can sell over 100,000 copies during the summer vacation.]

Can I not wake up? [I didn’t expect this album to sell so many copies.]

Xiaokui: [Many picture albums are purchased by local governments to promote their hometowns and attract investment. In addition, the country has stepped up efforts to improve the environment in recent years, and your picture album fits the theme perfectly. Many schools have listed this picture album as a recommended extracurricular reading for primary and secondary school students.]

Xiaokui: [Also, your Weibo popularity is increasing, which has also boosted sales.]

Can I stay awake? [I see.]
