Save the Bachelor of Heaven

   Chapter 1564 1566 [University]

  While learning to drive, Xiang Nan also renovated his first house in Jiangnan, preparing to make him and Deshan's first love nest in the future.

   However, in the early 1990s, South Korean society was relatively conservative.

  Although he and Deshan are already in love and have been approved by their parents, it is not advisable to live together rashly.

   But having said that, I am still a college student, so compared to high school students, I still have more freedom.

  At least, not going home at night is no longer a big problem.

  Xiang Nan plans to stay with Deshan in the hut for a few days, and then go home for a few days. Get married immediately after graduation. Xiang Nan doesn't want to be like the garbage guy in "Please Answer 1994", procrastinating and almost dragging his wife away.

  …

  On March 5, 1990, the friends celebrated Xiang Nan's 20th birthday together.

  That night, Xiang Nan drove Deshan to their hut.

   "This apartment is yours?" Deshan asked in amazement looking at the spacious, bright, gorgeous and warm house.

   It was the first time for her to enter such a beautiful apartment, and she felt that it was really beautiful. The semi-underground of their house is like a kennel compared to this place.

   "It's not mine, it's ours." Xiang Nan corrected, "Look, this room is yours, this room is mine~"

   "I also have a room?" Deshan opened the door in surprise, and saw that the wallpaper in the room was all pink, filled with cute dolls and decorations.

  On the huge dressing table, there are a variety of cosmetics, such as lipstick, foundation, eye shadow, blush, concealer, toner, base cream, makeup primer...

  Open the gorgeous, European court-style wardrobe, and you will see that it is full of beautiful clothes, there are as many as thirty or forty pieces. From tops to pants, from hats to shoes, from bags to jewelry, everything is available, and all of them are big brands.

   "Wow~" Deshan widened his eyes and looked around in surprise, feeling as if he was in a dreamland. She likes this room so much, it is tailor-made for her.

   "Wow, there's still a bed~" She jumped on the bed and said, "Wow, it's so soft and comfortable~"

   "Deshan, do you like it?" Xiang Nan asked with a smile.

   "I like it, of course I like it~" Deshan shouted happily.

  She never dreamed that one day she would live in such a nice house.

   "Then you move in and live with me, okay?" Xiang Nan walked up to her and lay next to her ear, and said softly.

   Deshan was taken aback for a moment, then blushed and nodded with a smile.

  Xiang Nan then turned his head and kissed her.

  …

   In mid-March, the university starts.

  Xiang Nan, Deshan, Shanyu and others went to their own schools to study.

  The courses at South Korean University are relatively free. All courses are chosen by the students themselves, so there is no concept of class. The courses are divided into professional compulsory courses, professional elective courses, public compulsory courses, public elective courses, etc. As long as you earn enough credits within the specified time, you can graduate smoothly.

  So Xiang Nan has a lot of time to create and invest.

  At the end of March, South Korea's MBC TV station, the full name of the South Korean Cultural Broadcasting Corporation, bought his "Blue Life and Death" film and television adaptation rights for a total price of 50 million won, which is quite a good price.

  This TV series starred Lee Mi-yeon, Kim Jong-won, and Lee Jae-hoon, who were popular at the time. When the project was launched, it has already attracted much attention.

  As the original author, Xiang Nan also met with the director, screenwriter, and directors after the project was approved, and told them about his creative ideas so that they can better understand the characters.

   These people couldn't help being amazed when they saw that Xiang Nan was so young, a freshman.

  The filming of this TV series officially started in May, and it began broadcasting in mid-May.

  South Korean TV dramas are basically filmed and broadcasted at the same time.

  In this way, you can listen to the audience's feedback at any time, so as to make corresponding adjustments to the plot, so that the drama can better meet the audience's taste.

  Of course, if the ratings are too bad, they can be cut off directly, so as not to affect the revenue of the TV station. It kills two birds with one stone.

   This production method of filming and broadcasting is common in Europe, America, Japan, Taiwan, Xiangjiang, South Korea and other places. As for why the mainland does not do this, it is mainly because of the different review mechanisms.

  After the TV series version of "Blue Life and Death" was launched, it was very well received. The first episode got 37% of the ratings, which is quite gratifying.

   Afterwards, as the plot unfolded, the ratings skyrocketed and remained above 50%. Even in the finale, the ratings reached 60%, making it the most popular TV work in 1990.

  …

  Because of the popularity of "Blue Life and Death", the original novel written by Xiang Nan has gained more fans' attention. Originally, the novel was released for one year, and the sales volume was only over 500,000 copies.

  After the TV series was broadcast, sales quickly exceeded the million-copy mark. Given that the population of South Korea is less than 30 million, this sales volume is obviously already amazing.

Also because of the success of this TV series, Xiang Nan's other novels, such as "Winter Sonata", "Dae Jang Geum", "Full House", "Boys Over Flowers", "Mischievous Kiss", "Chunxiang Heroes" and so on, Copyrights were also bought out one after another.

   This also caused Xiang Nan's net worth to expand rapidly, and his popularity soared rapidly, and he was hailed as a "ghost-like genius" by the South Korean entertainment circle. On the one hand, it is because the novels he wrote are very good-looking and the sales volume is very good; on the one hand, it is because he has already achieved such a high achievement while he is still a college student; on the other hand, it is because his writing speed is amazing.

  Generally speaking, if a writer can create a novel within a year, it is already considered highly productive. Many writers only write a few works in their whole life.

  Xiang Nan, on the other hand, can produce a novel within one or two months. The speed of writing and the agility of writing are jaw-dropping.

   Also because of his fast writing speed, he can write 10,000 to 20,000 words a day. And his current net worth has reached 300,000 characters, so his income is faster than printing money, and he can earn as much as 30 to 40 million won a month.

  This kind of income shocked everyone.

  Xiang Nan took all the money to buy a house in Jiangnan.

  Because he knows that the housing prices in South Korea have always been controlled by capital and are getting higher year by year. Even during the COVID-19 period, South Korea's economy was in recession, and housing prices still rose by 20%, and it was the highest increase in 14 years.

  Silver Horse Apartments in Gangnam District cost 230,000 won per square meter in 1980, and had risen to 20 million won per square meter in 2020, a nearly 100-fold increase.

  In comparison, the price of pork belly has only increased nine times, the price of cigarettes has increased fourteen times, and the price of soju has only increased four times. It can be seen how fierce the price rise is.

   Therefore, buying a house is definitely very cost-effective.
