Bishop of the Devil

In addition to being too busy, Richard sold the copyright of the first volume of "Violent Black" for another reason.

That's right, the copyright was sold...

The copyright of more than 150,000 words was spotted by Time Inc., one of the largest publishers in the United States, and it bought the physical publishing rights for the first volume of "Violent Black"!

The first printing of 300,000 copies is priced at 15 US dollars, which is a relatively affordable price...

Some people may be wondering, is fifteen dollars still affordable? ! Why don't you grab it...

Fifteen US dollars in the 1990s was equivalent to one hundred yuan in RMB. Who could afford it...

In China, naturally few people can afford it, but in the United States, the price is very reasonable.

The minimum wage stipulated by law in the United States in this era is five dollars an hour, and most books cost around twenty dollars...

It was around this time that Li Ao published a book in the United States called "Impotence in America", which sold for forty-five dollars. That's expensive...

If all three hundred thousand copies are sold, based on the supply price, the total value will be approximately three million US dollars, and Richard will get 20% of it!

…

What makes Time Inc. a little unbelievable is that this book just went on sale in November, and it was sold out in just three days!

As a last resort, Time Inc. hurriedly printed more copies!

The second batch of printings directly increased the number to 500,000 copies!

Even so, Time Company has a premonition that these 500,000 copies may not last long...

Such a hot sales situation made Richard dumbfounded. He did not expect that what he had written all his life in his previous life would be so popular in the United States...

That’s 800,000 copies!

Eight million dollars!

Richard took 20% of it, 1.6 million!

This further confirms Richard’s idea that it is easy for time travellers to make money...

You must know that this has not yet been fully launched. Richard himself cannot estimate how many copies the first volume of "Violent Black" will eventually sell. Anyway, the global sales volume is definitely very high!

Only 150,000 words!

It is very likely to bring Richard an income of tens of millions of dollars!

In the previous life, this was just the number of free words in the public period, and you couldn't earn a dime...

…

Now Richard finally understands why JK Rowling can make so much money...

It's really an opportunity, it's really a good time. It can be said with certainty that if Harry Potter had come out ten years later, it would be good to make a few million, not to mention the billions of dollars... …

…

Throughout October, Richard has been using a lineup of Billups engines and four anti-aircraft guns!

And in November, the opponents this month were stronger than in October, and Richard changed to another lineup...

Truth Pierce got the opportunity to appear, and he appeared with Iverson within this month!

Truth and Answers!

What a harmonious couple they sound like. Judging from their nicknames, these two are probably the best combination in NBA history to try...

Last season, Richard fantasized about using the two-horns tactic used during the Nuggets' golden double-gun era.

However, since the team does not have an offensive kaleidoscope like Melo Anthony, Richard has no choice but to give up this tactic...

With the arrival of Pierce, Richard picked up this more classic tactic again.

Although Pierce is not as good as Anthony in terms of pure offensive firepower, he is also a representative figure of the all-around offensive small forward. There will definitely be no problem in partnering with Iverson to play a two-corner tactic...

In this way, the anti-aircraft artillery tactics in October completely disappeared from the fans' sight!

Instead, it’s November’s double horns tactic!

The two horns of answers and truth are tearing at the opponent's defense like sharp knives...

Just like the line in a game of later generations, "Wrestle with a bull, and you will taste the horns!"

The fans were shocked. Just as some fans expected, Paul Pierce, who did not appear in October, is really a ruthless character. Even if his offensive firepower on the court is not as good as Iverson, it is extremely explosive!

And in December, the Boilermakers underwent a sudden change in style!

In the first two months, they focused on offense, but in December they directly started to play positional defensive counterattacks!

Big Ben, Miller, Billups, Paul Pierce plus Szczerbiak!

The top four players are all defensive warriors. This is not controversial, but Szczerbiak surprised Richard!

For a long time, it may have been Szczerbiak's somewhat unsophisticated appearance that gave Richard the idea that this guy was not very good at defense...

But after coaching Szczerbiak, he suddenly discovered that this handsome guy's defense was not only not bad, but also quite good!

His shortcoming is his slow lateral speed, which puts him at a disadvantage when defending players like Iverson...

But defending players like Pierce is surprisingly effective!

The effect was so good that Pierce couldn't break through Szczerbiak's defense. When facing off alone, most of his attacks were based on shooting!

…

With such a defensive lineup, one can imagine how miserable the opponent will be!

The Bryant University Bulldogs from the Northeastern Conference were defended by this lineup and only scored a measly 37 points!

You read that right, the entire game lasted forty minutes and only scored thirty-seven points...

Although the strength of this team is a bit scummy, it is enough to show the terrible defensive strength of this lineup!

…

As December comes to an end, the league's regular season will begin in January...

The major NCAA leagues are not calm anymore!

The Purdue Boilermakers, the West Lafayette Gang, these guys are totally cheating!

How do you ask others to fight with that kind of devilish lineup? !

Especially within the Big Ten League, there was a cry. They even had the idea of ​​​​leaving the Big Ten League and joining other leagues. The West Lafayette gang was really too powerful, making it difficult for them to even have the courage to resist!

If the Boilermakers still had the same lineup as last season, even though they would be ridiculously strong, they wouldn't be so desperate...

The key is that each of the nine Boilermakers players this season is incomprehensible...

How can it be so strong? !

How could it be so strong!

Could it be that what Richard said at the beginning was true? !

If it's true, then it's really a shame. You have nine future All-Stars on your team, how can others have fun? !

For a time, the entire NCAA league set off a wave of "farewell" to Richard...

"Ahem, let's go quickly, go to the NBA, go and harm the NBA..."

"I can guarantee that Richard will never dare to go to the NBA. He will definitely fall down when he gets there!"

"The best time to leave is to take away all the players like you..."

Some sighed, some were agitated, and some asked Richard to drag his family away...
