Volume 2 Corpse Transformation Witch Chu Chapter 211 Broke into a girl's dream
Ouyang Weibai walked to Xia Su's side, held Xia Su's slightly trembling hand, let her calm down, and then used his own unique eyes, which were whiter than black eyes (commonly known as "dead fish eyes"), to look directly at the editor, and slowly asked:
"So, what can be done to increase the commercial value of the book without changing the original setting?"
The original setting is the bottom line, this is Xia Su's dream, which can never be changed, nor can it be easily compromised.
But apart from changing the setting of the original text, how could two students who have no social experience and no understanding of the publishing industry come up with anything else.
If there is no way, then ask someone who has a way. There must be a way for such old fritters in society.
He didn't ask if there was such a way, nor did he ask if the other party could tell him, but in an almost commanding tone, he asked the editor to explain the method.
Don't worry about angering the other party, anyway, the worst situation in this interview is "hitting the street", anyway, after this "hitting the street", Xia Su will not be able to come to this editor again to bring humiliation on himself, it is better to use his "appearance" advantage to "leave a deep impression on the other party".
Looking at the imposing Ouyang Weibai, the editor uncle felt a trace of pressure, he shook his eyebrows, and took a sip of his thermos cup in disguise, in fact, his lips may not have touched the water mark that was only half water.
He seemed to emphasize his superiority and asked, "Excuse me, who are you?"
"Assistant. β
Ouyang Weibai didn't talk much nonsense, and directly made up two words for himself concisely and clearly.
"Uh......"
Of course, the editor who has mixed with the middle-aged man knows that the other party is talking nonsense, and most of the boys in front of him who call themselves "assistants" are brothers, classmates, or boyfriends or something, anyway, it can't be a serious "assistant".
But he was indeed a little bluffed.
Ouyang Weibai's attitude is too arrogant!
is so arrogant that as long as he says the word "no", he will immediately be forced to have a one-sided "warm-up exercise" in this office that he is not familiar with.
Nowadays, the conditions of the students are relatively good, they eat well, and the hormones of the body are vigorous, and if they are not served well, it is not unheard of to have a case of smashing the teacher's head with a hammer.
Two days ago, his friend's colleague was smashed by a middle school student on the playground, and the reason turned out to be extremely nonsense: "There is too much homework assignment, which affects his playing basketball".
It's really sad to go to the hospital for such an inexplicable reason.
The editor swallowed his spit, weighed the pros and cons, and decided to give the other party a chance, anyway, as long as there was no conflict on the spot, then it would be expedient, and after a slight change of mind, he said: "Then we can only see, what other accessories can be sold in this book." β
Ouyang Weibai raised his eyebrows, knowing that there was a play, and immediately asked, "Accessories?"
"High-grade derivatives, fanworks, these can be considered accessories. When asked about his home knowledge, the editor took out something like a collection book, and explained while flipping through it, "These are all things that can produce the corresponding industrial chain." In particular, if the relevant exquisite original paintings are sold by the publishing house, whether it is a mural or a card sticker, it can be sold at a good price, not to mention these things. But...... It's just a simple campus love.,No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like something that can make a set of figures.γ β
"Exquisite original paintings...... Is this okay?" Ouyang Weibai opened the photo album on his phone and put it in front of the editor, "Illustrations, or posters, can be made." β
"Is this a character drawing? yes, it's exquisite. The editor's uncle rummaged through the album and asked, "Are these all original?"
"Original. Ouyang Weibai nodded affirmatively.
"If that's it, it's okay. You won't lose money even if you sell these alone. β
Ouyang Weibai raised his eyebrows and immediately asked, "What about ......?"
The editor's uncle nodded, although the work itself is unsatisfactory, but if there can be an illustration, it is not a loss, and it may even be a bit of a loss.
"Okay, that's it, let's sign a contract first, but we'll ask for this kind of high-quality illustration at the end of each volume. β
"Good. Ouyang Weibai nodded and pushed Xia Su, who was still in a daze.
"By the way, can I trouble you with one thing. The editor's uncle, who was taking the contract, suddenly spoke.
"What's the matter?"
The editor's uncle grabbed his hair and said in a somewhat collapsed tone: "If you update, please be sure to bring the electronic manuscript next time, the manuscript input typesetting is really terrible!"
"Ahem...... Ouyang nodded awkwardly, and hurriedly agreed, "I will definitely help with this." β
There was nothing to say about signing the contract, and it was signed by Xia Su, who was still in a hazy state. However, Ouyang has already swept the contract, and it is not very favorable, but at least there is no trick.
There may also be some places to pit people, but Ouyang, who is still inexperienced in society, did not find it. However, those pits should only be related to income, and for a young lady from a big family like Xia Su, she doesn't really care much.
"That's right...... Although some of the accessories were successfully signed this time, after signing the contract ......", the editor's uncle reminded again, "But as a person who has come over, I would like to advise you, if it is just this kind of work with no new ideas in the future, it is better to give up this path." Home is not only supported by dreams, but also by talent. Otherwise, what's the difference with the typewriter on the Internet?"
"......" Xia Su didn't speak, just thanked the editor and walked away silently.
"Uh...... I'll remind her. Ouyang Weibai said hello to the editor's uncle and took the contract and documents away.
................................................
"Tail, am I really not talented?" asked Xia Su suddenly.
"Hmm...... Do you want to hear the truth or lie?" Ouyang Weibai asked rhetorically.
"Do you still tell lies?" Xia Su asked rhetorically.
"If you tell yourself in advance that you are going to tell a lie, then the lie itself is defined as a denial, and the lie does not have the effect of being 'false' as it should be, so in the strict sense, it is not considered to be telling a lie. Ouyang Weibai replied solemnly.
"Poof...... Xia Su couldn't help laughing, "Then according to what you say, what is the point of telling a lie?"
"Meaning...... Ouyang Weibai scratched his cheek and replied, "Probably just to be more tactful." If you tell the truth directly, it will inevitably hurt too much. But as long as they tell a lie, the other party needs to turn a corner and think again, and with such a bend as a buffer, it should be psychologically better, right?"
"It's too troublesome, you better tell the truth. Xia Su's eyebrows that had been drawn by the eyebrow pencil furrowed slightly, and he shook his head, "The way you tell a lie is too fake, you don't need to bend at all." β
"Uh...... All right. Ouyang Weibai sighed speechlessly, and then said, "In fact, what your work is doing today...... It is indeed a lack of talent. β
"Sure enough...... Xia Su's eyes dimmed a little.
"But why don't you use the one you wrote before?!" Ouyang Weibai suddenly asked with a twinkle in his eyes, "I think that thing will definitely be favored by Uncle Editor." β
"Before...... That?!" Xia Wei was a little confused at first, then gradually widened his eyes, revealing an annoyed expression, and said while beating Ouyang Weibai, "Bastard! That thing must not be taken out!"
Ouyang Weibai was beaten and laughed: "Why not? That is the work that best represents your talent." Don't you think this setting itself is very selling, and you already like it, so why don't you stick to it?"
"Hmm...... Actually, too, too. β
"Don't be shy~ Be confident...... Eh?" Ouyang Weibai was stunned for a moment, and suddenly reacted, "You agreed?!"
"Yes, yes. Xia Su blushed and explained, "On the contrary, it's all your favorite things anyway, why don't you choose something that is better?"
"Uh......" Ouyang Weibai raised his eyebrows, and said in a slightly vicissitudes of life, "I always feel that it's not good that you promised so quickly......"
"After all, it's all written in the contract, and each volume must be made with a corresponding original painting, and you can't breach the contract~ Hahahahaha!" Xia Su showed an expression of successful conspiracy.
"Gan!"
Ouyang Weibai couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, pressed his hand on his head, revealing a helpless expression, and then showed a panicked expression:
"What are you doing!"
Xia Su suddenly ran behind Ouyang Weibai, then jumped on his back and hugged his neck.
"What are you doing, of course, to use Miss Ben as a mount!" Xia Su patted Ouyang's head, "Target, go home!"
"Make no mistake, don't shake your heels in front of my eyes, okay?
"! How could Miss Ben have smelly feet, hurry up, don't spin around, like a donkey pushing and grinding, your head will be dizzy." β
Xia Su's thigh clamped Ouyang Weibai's waist hard, which immediately made Ouyang Weibai feel excited.
Hiss...... This is not a good touch......
"Don't move, I'll just go. Ouyang Weibai sighed helplessly, stretched out his hand to drag Xia Su's body, and regardless of the strange eyes of passers-by, he began to walk in the direction of home.
"Xia Su. β
"Huh?"
"Don't wear high heels next time. β
"Why?"
"It looks like it's scratching its head. β
"Hmm, what are you talking about?" Xia Su strangled Ouyang Weibai's neck hard.
"Stop, stop, help...... Ahem, ahem......" Ouyang gasped in place, "Because when you wear high heels, it looks like you're twisting ...... Ahem, I was wrong!"
"Hmph! Xia Su let go of his arm, pressed Ouyang's head again, and asked with his board inch, "By the way, don't I look good in high heels?"
"It's beautiful, but it's awkward to walk on. β
"Also, it hurts me to walk. β
................................................
Ouyang opened his eyes, his thoughts were concentrated in his mind, and his consciousness gradually began to become clear.
He sat up and looked up, and found that there were no big pits around, no strong ions, and his hair was soft, and his body was clean, as if he had just returned from a bath.
The forest has become a vast lawn, and the sun is shining brightly.
Similarly, DeoΔisis is also constantly disconnected.
Even the most reliable "flesh and blood connection" can't be used this time.
Am I here, in the middle of the crossing, another crossing?
Ouyang couldn't help but have such a thought.
"Hello, future soul. A gentle voice rang out.
A shadow appeared in the sky in front of Ouyang's eyes, and after his gaze was focused, a girl with a delicate face stood in front of him.
"Uh...... Hello, who are you?"
"Shouldn't you give your name before asking someone?"
"I ......"
"Huh...... I'll say something stupid. β
The girl chuckled, interrupted Ouyang, who was about to introduce herself, and said, "Your name is 'Tail', isn't it?"
"Eh? Ouyang was stunned for a moment, "But how do you know?"
"You just had a dream, and the fluctuations are so great that they all leak out, so I will know. The girl smiled and sat next to Ouyang.
"Dream ......" Ouyang thought for a while, and suddenly thought of the memories that had just surfaced in his mind, and asked with some surprise, "Do you know how to read minds?!"
It's not just surprise, there should be a little bit of fear in this emotion.
The girl shook her head and decisively denied: "No." β
"And how do you know?"
"I've already said it, it's your dreams that fluctuate too much. Hmm......" The girl suddenly thought of something, and showed an interested look, "You should, you don't know what state you are in now, right?"
"Your own state?" Ouyang checked his body and found that there was nothing abnormal except for the lack of supernatural power.
"I really don't know. The girl stretched out her hand and pressed Ouyang's forehead.
In the moment of getting along with the skin, the girl's appearance and figure directly changed into the appearance of "Xia Su".
"You...... Who the hell are you?! This joke is really not funny at all!"
"My name doesn't sound good, so I don't want to tell you. This "Xia Su" shook his head, and his voice was exactly the same as Xia Su.
"Do you think you can meet this girl here?"
Ouyang frowned, feeling the urge to beat her, but he still restrained his not very strong fist and replied, "Can't ......"
"And when do you usually see her?"
"Meet her...... Probably only, in a dream......"
"That's the end of it. β
The girl withdrew her hand and changed back to her original appearance, which made Ouyang feel a sense of loss in her heart.
She stood up, spread her arms, spun around in the bright sun, made a trumpet-like gesture with her hands and put it to her mouth, and said to Ouyang,
"Hey, the soul from the future, you're now, but you've broken into a girl's dream~"
