To be honest, Li Yuan really doesn’t think being on TV is a big deal. If short videos later can be considered media, wouldn’t ordinary people be on TV per capita?

"No need to be so exaggerated, right?" Li Yuan said with a smile.

"Why not?" Mom Zhang Zhen was unhappy, "That's Yang Ma! If your dad knew about it underground, I don't know how happy he would be."

Okay! Just be happy!

In this era, Yang Ma's status was so lofty. In fact, her status was also quite high later on, at least dozens of floors high. But now she has directly climbed onto the space ladder and has broken through the shackles of the atmosphere!

No nonsense, just eat and drink from the sea!

By the time the program started, the family had already gathered around the TV, waiting for the program to officially start.

The female host still spoke in a standard tone: "Dear audience friends, there is a book that is being widely circulated recently, and has also spread to the United States, Europe and other European and American countries, that is "The Rise of Great Powers". Today we have invited the author

——Angry Brother Yuan. Please come on stage now!"

Because this is a reading program, Yangma did not arrange it in prime time, but arranged it to start at 11 o'clock in the night.

And in this era, domestic talk shows are very serious. They are almost rigid and the same, and there are no live audiences, voiceovers, etc. They just ask and answer questions honestly.

Sitting in front of the TV, Li Yuan actually couldn't arouse much interest.

Because during the recording, Brother Yuan would definitely let himself go and say a lot of nonsense.

In the end, even the director of Yangma said - many contents are inappropriate and the editing will definitely be reviewed.

Therefore, at that time, the content was recorded and broadcast several times in preparation for editing into an episode.

Of course, this kind of castrated version of the talk show? It must be that the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and the years are quiet. In Li Yuan's eyes, what's the point?

However, when they saw Li Yuan walking out from the backstage, the women at home couldn't help but scream: "Wow! He's out!"

Scared, Qiqi rolled over from Gu Yuqin's arms. He suddenly saw the daddy on the TV, and then looked at the daddy next to him in confusion? What's the matter? Why are there two daddies?

With the whole family laughing, the interview finally began. The host smiled and asked: "Brother Yuan, why did you choose such a pen name? It seems... hmm."

Li Yuan smiled and said: "My original name is Li Yuan. The pen name Yuan Ge is indeed a bit advantageous. You can call me Li Yuan, Xiao Li, or Yuanzi."

"Okay! Li Yuan, first question: What was your motivation for writing "The Rise of the Great Powers"?"

"From a financial perspective, of course it's for the royalties? The publisher wanted me to publish another series of books, so they gave me a satisfactory royalties..."

"I'm sorry to interrupt, but viewers should be very curious, how much remuneration can you get?" In this era, China does not pay attention to this kind of privacy, so this kind of question is quite normal.

Li Yuan smiled slightly. He did not hide anything: "For the previous book "Casino", the royalties we received in China... were almost 1 million! There were several million in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and tens of millions in Europe and the United States. Now this

It should be similar to "The Rise of Great Powers", right?"

The host made an exaggerated expression: "Wow! So many?"

"Haha. The main reason is that overseas remuneration standards are relatively high. Domestic remuneration is probably in the millions!"

Here, the reason why Li Yuan tells the truth is mainly for the purpose of explaining later - where did the first pot of gold come from!

Of course, public opinion and the common people are very tolerant of high incomes such as royalties. This is just like the high income of athletes. Generally speaking, people will not hate the rich because it is earned through personal efforts.

Another example can be given: if actors are paid extremely high salaries, public opinion will be aroused. However, if directors are paid extremely high salaries, generally everyone can understand it.

Therefore, the host did not dwell too much on the issue of remuneration: "Li Yuan, what about other aspects?"

"From the perspective of vanity, of course I won't make steamed buns to fight for reputation! Because of the previous book "Casino", the outside world seems... not very friendly, right? Then write another one! Haha."

"Um."

"And in terms of hobbies. I prefer studying macro history! You should also know that I am a science and engineering engineer, not a history major in liberal arts. That is just a hobby. Haha."

The host laughed a few times: "Li Yuan, do you know that your book "The Rise of Great Powers" has aroused great repercussions in China. And there are many various opinions, which seem to be very meaningful.

That makes sense. But what they focused on commenting on was not the first few volumes of "The Rise of the Great Powers". I'm not saying that the first few volumes are unimportant. What I'm saying is that the last volume, "China," has caused the most controversy!"

"Yeah." Li Yuan nodded.

"My question may be more direct - in your opinion, can our country achieve the rise of a great power?"

In the TV screen, Li Yuan nodded without hesitation: "That's for sure. The rise of our great power is a historical trend! It conforms to the law of historical development."

"Sorry to interrupt! What's the reason? Can you tell me the reason?"
Chapter completed!
