Chapter 83 Only taxes and death are inevitable
Today, bookstores across the country are surrounded by readers who want to buy "Everyone Has Kung Fu", and Ameili's paper is suddenly expensive.
However, the number of books could not match the demand of the crowd. In just one afternoon, there were no books to buy.
Even if book production organizations go all out to print more books, they cannot keep up with the intense demand.
But in the face of the vast wisdom of the working people, this problem was solved immediately, because second-hand pirated copies began to appear openly at the door of bookstores.
Because the book itself can be copied, people who bought the book soon used their cameras to take pictures of the contents page by page, and then directly sold the electronic version at half or more of the price of the original book.
Not long after, with the ability of electronic piracy to make unlimited copies, the original Baiye genuine books that were in demand immediately became deserted. If nothing else happens, at least billions of prices will evaporate because of the genuine editions.
Bai Ye's pirated books were able to go abroad and spread throughout the world in just one day.
At this moment, at the party, Vice President Rodriguez said to Bai Ye with a look of regret: "Mr. Bai, it can be foreseen that the piracy of your books is absolutely rampant. Do you need us to cooperate with the IRS to help combat piracy crimes?"
"Piracy? This is indeed a problem." Bai Ye smiled noncommittally: "I just don't know if they are interested in my next book."
"Next book?" The eyes of the people around him immediately lit up. With the terrifying effect of this book, could there be any big work in the next book?
"That's right, the version of my next book "Everyone Has Kung Fu 2.0" is more than 200% better than this one in terms of extending life span and strength," Bai Ye said.
200%! ! !
Everyone present could not help but feel their breaths suffocate. The effect was so terrifying.
"200%, can it really be done to this extent?" Rodriguez said in disbelief.
"Of course, it is expected that the human life span can be extended to 300 years, but this book is still being written." Bai Ye said, his eyes inadvertently falling on the 2,000,000-year number in the life span column on his panel.
‘Then go and write quickly. Why are you still drinking with us here? Isn’t it fun to waste time? ’
At this moment, everyone on the scene wanted to turn into a reader urging the readers to wake up and lock Bai Ye into a small dark room. However, due to Bai Ye's strength, it was difficult for him to attack.
Of course Bai Ye saw what they were thinking. In fact, the so-called "Everyone Has Kung Fu 2.0" has far surpassed the original Zixia Magic Kung Fu in terms of skills.
This is the best known movement route that he deduced from himself by relying on the original technique and 4.1 mental attributes while maintaining Zixia's internal strength.
If 1.0 is a weakened version of Zixia, then 2.0 is directly an enhanced version of Zixia's magical power.
Bai Ye expects to push Ren Ren You Gong Lian to version 12.0 within the next year, which means one edition will be published every month.
The current 2.0 is the enhanced version of Zixia Magic Power, and then there will be Zixia Advanced Edition, Zixia Ultimate Edition, Ultimate Edition s, ss, sss, and so on.
According to his estimation, with the understanding and analytical ability brought about by the spiritual attributes in one year, it might be possible to deduce Yue Buqun's Zixia Magic Technique to the level of immortality cultivation techniques that can extend life spans for thousands of years.
At the scene, Bai Ye's words were transmitted to the Internet through live broadcast, and immediately caused an uproar. Some people looked at the books they had just bought and began to regret. Did they buy them too early? If they had known earlier, they would have bought electronic pirated copies.
"Mr. Bai, how long will it take for version 2.0 to be released? For the future of all mankind, please ensure your health." Rodriguez said with concern.
"It may take half a month to a month to be published, but before that, I have one thing to ask you."
"Whatever it is, as long as it's reasonable, I can go to Congress to legislate it specifically for you." Mr. Vice President said, patting his chest.
Bai Ye didn't say it directly, but first said in a roundabout way: "Mr. Vice President, in the future everyone will definitely use my everyone has skills."
"Of course, this is an epoch-making book. I even considered adding it to the school curriculum." The president said matter-of-factly.
"Theoretically, everyone should buy my book."
"This..." Rodriguez hesitated: "Theoretically, it's true, but you also know that piracy cannot be stopped."
"Since piracy cannot be stopped, why not just transfer money to me directly from everyone's bank account." Bai Ye finally showed his fangs.
Rodriguez took a breath and said, "Mr. Bai...this, this is not good."
"Isn't it bad? The whole world wants to read my books and practice my exercises, so shouldn't they pay me copyright fees? I sell them for 15 US dollars a book, which is a big loss in itself. Isn't it right? Are you going to be exploited by pirates?”
Bai Ye smiled and said: "Whether it's from a moral or legal perspective, it shouldn't be difficult to collect taxes based on the number of people in the world based on the unit price of a book of 15 US dollars."
Bai Ye's words made Rodriguez dumbfounded. Good guy, there are more than 6 billion people in the world, and each person is required to pay 15 US dollars for books. This kid really dares to think about it.
If there was no such thing as 2.0, Rodriguez would not bother to pay attention to Bai Ye's proposal. It was simply a dream.
But this $15 is only the pilot version, and there will be a 2.0 super enhanced version later. If he doesn't agree and stops sending it, then he, the vice president, will be done.
"This, this, this..." Before the live broadcast, Rodriguez was sweating and said tremblingly: "I am just the vice president of the United States and cannot manage other countries."
"Then you can talk about it. Let each country manage its own citizens and tax books." Bai Ye said with a smile.
"Then, those who have purchased the genuine book are not at a loss." Rodriguez was still making amends.
"It doesn't matter. Every genuine book has an anti-counterfeiting certification. As long as you provide the certificate, you can get a tax refund later."
Bai Ye smiled, and his 1.4 appearance made people fond of him, but in the eyes of the Vice President, Bai Ye looked like an ugly capitalist.
"Okay... okay, what you said makes sense. I will discuss this matter with Congress when I go back." Rodriguez lowered his head and said helplessly.
At this point, Bai Ye showed a satisfied smile.
If it's his, it's definitely his. He can give it away, but letting others take advantage of it is more uncomfortable than killing him.
It is foreseeable that from today onwards, no one will be born on Earth in the Marvel world.
From the moment he was born, he would owe Bai Ye $15 for books in his bank account.
Really do it and crack down on piracy from the root.
As Franklin said: There are only two things in the world that are inevitable, taxes and death!
