"Oh, can our model airplanes be shipped?" Hu Wenhai nodded with a smile and said happily: "No problem, as long as Mr. Scott says a word, I can send the product over immediately." Please search for the fastest updated novels"

Freddy's Restaurant in New York is so famous that even the billionaires of the Upper City District are frequented by it.

It is said that it was also the favorite hotel of Mr. Eastwood, an evergreen in American politics, before his career, which added a lot of legend to its fame.

The elegant setting and spacious and intimate dining space have won it the love of business people.

The steak of three-Michelin-starred chef Freddy hired from France is not something that can be ordered by idle people.

But today Scott was bleeding profusely, and he and Badala spent a lot of money to order a special steak presidential set meal cooked by Freddy at Freddy's Western Restaurant.

Well, the purebred Wagyu ribeye bone-in steak from Australia, prepared by a three-Michelin-starred chef, is absolutely a delicacy beyond words.

and the special "presidential package" made by Bei Ye in later generations

, definitely not the same thing.

"That's great, with Mr. Hu's model airplane, the Pentagon's will soon be able to get through guò, and I think the movie TOPGUN will start filming this year." This is thanks to you, let us toast Mr. Hu Wenhai. ”

“cheers！”

“cheers！”

As Scott raised his glass, everyone at the table followed him and raised the wine glass in his hand to thank Hu Wenhai.

Hu Wenhai accepted Scott's compliment with a smile, but he didn't get carried away at all.

It is said that there is nothing to be done to be courteous or a thief, and the model aircraft used in TOPGUN shooting has a transaction volume of 500,000 US dollars, which is definitely a gold brick falling from the sky for the 501 factory.

As a buyer, Scott would normally never be so easy to talk to, even to the point of being a little deliberately flattering.

So from the beginning of this meal, Hu Wenhai knew that the other party was a drunkard, and it didn't mean to drink, maybe it was because of that batch of manuscripts.

The original manuscript was always in his possession, and he was not worried that Scott would be hacked.

But how much Scott, as a great director, will pay attention to, he still has no bottom in his heart for the time being.

"Let me introduce you to Douglas Edwards, the chairman and general manager of Scholar Publishing in the United States, who is very interested in the work that Mr. Hu handed over to me. ”

Hu Wenhai is an uninvited Douglas, he has a high nose bridge that is obvious to Europeans and Americans, but it is probably a perennial overuse of his brain, and his hairline seems to be quite backward, with his deep eyes, it is really in line with the "bald eagle"

Such an image.

"So let's get to the substance. ”

Douglas put down the wine glass in his hand and said calmly: "Don't hide from Mr. Hu, the Scholar Press is just a publishing house that has been established for less than a year and does not have strong capital. However, for Mr. Hu's manuscript, we at Scholar Press sincerely invite you to cooperate with us to jointly promote these works to the U.S. market. However, there is a slight problem, some of these novels may need some revisions, or you can do it yourself, of course, you can also license it to us. ”

Hu Wenhai was slightly surprised, with his understanding of Americans, Americans at this time always had some feelings about Chinese, thinking that Chinese, especially mainlanders, had not seen much of the world.

Therefore, in the early days of reform and opening up, many Chinese were inevitably deceived by the United States or other developed countries when doing business with the United States.

Especially now in 1984, with the relative improvement of China's economy, all parts of China are vying to use foreign exchange to import "advanced" from foreign countries

production line.

It is said to be advanced, but in fact, it is also the backward production capacity eliminated by countries around the world, and it is also called industrial transfer.

But in this wave, Chinese who have not seen much of the world have also suffered a lot of losses and paid a lot of tuition fees in the process.

Sometimes they spend a lot of money to introduce production capacity, but in the end they find that they do not have the same high technical content as their own, or they make the same mistake as the Hanyang Iron Works in the last century, and introduce equipment that is completely unsuitable.

Hu Wenhai has been in the United States for a while, and in the eyes of current Americans, Chinese mainland people are estimated and "stupid and fast"

Probably not much different.

Now that Leng Buding has met a person who treats him sincerely as soon as they meet, he is still a little uncomfortable.

But from Douglas's point of view, it was a deliberate decision.

It would be unrealistic to say that he was not at all influenced by the widespread impression of American society.

But after reading Hu Wenhai's entire manuscript, Douglas was keenly aware that this was not an object that could be speculated with common sense.

It is said that the text carries the Tao, and the words often reflect a person's character and inner activities such as su.

Although the stories of Hu Wenhai's manuscripts are all stories of later generations, they were written by himself in the end.

In the process, it is impossible for him to copy all the words as they are, but to leave the framework and characteristics of the story, and then reorganize the story in his own words.

In the process, he will inevitably integrate his own style characteristics.

It is between these lines that Douglas, who has been an editor for nearly 30 years, has gained some in-depth understanding of Hu Wenhai.

This is a very atmospheric person, he should be open-minded and disdainful of calculating.

At the same time, he has a deep study of American culture, and even the American spirit, not only influenced by American culture, but deeply studied and analyzed American culture.

From a height, looking down on the weaving of stories that cater to the taste of Americans.

This man is by no means a country man, on the contrary, his mind is sharp and his thoughts are deep and terrifying.

In his presence, honesty and sincerity are more useful than any cunning.

It was with this sober understanding that Douglas intended to put on a sincere face from the beginning.

It should be said that Scott, as a future famous director, and Badara, as a famous cultural person and producer, these two people did not go to other big publishing houses but found Douglas, which in itself has already shown his ability.

Although Hu Wenhai didn't know what Douglas was thinking, he did feel that his sincere attitude was useful.

What's more, these manuscripts are really dispensable to him now, and there is no interest in intrigue.

He smiled and nodded, and said lightly: "Well, since Mr. Douglas is willing to publish this batch of manuscripts for me, of course I have no reason not to be willing. As for the right to amend, you guys are fine. So, what conditions can the Scholar Press come up with?"

Douglas folded his legs and was silent for a moment, and then said, "Regarding the remuneration for publishing, we are also willing to listen to your opinion, Mr. Hu." ”

"It's up to me, too?"

Hu Wenhai is really surprised, he has never published a book, it can be said that he has no fame at all, there is absolutely no reason to get this kind of condition!

Under normal circumstances, it would be good for a new author to get a format publishing agreement, and at most they would discuss with the publisher in terms of royalties.

No matter how good the work of a newcomer is, after all, he is a newcomer, and the rules of the industry are like this, and no one has ever given up so much initiative in business negotiations like Douglas.

But then again, this is also because Hu Wenhai really doesn't understand the value of these words he wrote.

If nothing else, The Da Vinci Code alone has sold 7.5 million copies in the United States in history, one of the top 10 best-selling novels in the United States!

It is no exaggeration to say that it will leave its name in the history of American culture.

In Chinese, it is appropriate to enter the rhythm of the Chinese textbook.

And Hu Wenhai's reading level in terms of books is definitely not low, "American Gods" is a famous Hugo Award, and the Matrix is needless to say that it is simply the embodiment of these four words, a song of ice and fire...... Well, the latter one was actually made up by him, and he just wrote a few intermittent fragments of the plot that he remembered, and he had already given up on being a writer when he handed it over to Scott anyway.

As for other miscellaneous short films and scripts, they will definitely not be small.

Traditionally, there is a price cap for newcomers' first work, and that's because they haven't been able to prove themselves yet.

No one knows how long this state of affairs will last.

But Hu Wenhai threw out so many works at one time, which completely proved his endurance and explosiveness, and of course, he had the capital to bargain.

"Yes, I think the Scholar Press can listen to Mr. Hu's opinion. ”

Douglas is going to make a low profile to the end.

"Ah, that's ......"

Hu Wenhai really eats this attitude, if someone plays tricks on him, he doesn't mind pitting his opponent ruthlessly.

But if the other party comes up and asks him to kill him with a knife so sincerely, he won't be able to do it.

"Then go according to the normal 10, and don't have to prepare any special treatment for me. ”

Hu Wenhai waved his hand and said with a smile: "But I can state ...... in advance."

At this point, a flash of lightning suddenly crossed his mind, and he was stunned.

"Mr. Hu, Mr. Hu?"

Douglas waited for a long time and didn't see Hu Wenhai continue, so he had to summon twice.

It was only then that Hu Wenhai came back to his senses, his eyes lit up and he said with great interest: "I'm sorry Mr. Douglas, I really want to ask you for help." ”

"Oh, you say, I'll do my best. ”

"Well, that's right, I'm going to write a new book. If you don't think it's worth publishing, I can publish it at my own expense, but ask Mr. Douglas to help me run it. ”

"Oh, there's no problem with this, but I don't know what book Mr. Hu is going to write, what kind of subject?"

"Hmm. ”

Hu Wenhai pondered for a moment, and said with a firm gaze: "The title of the book is "Pronoun Zeta", which tells the story of a Soviet agent named Zeta, who stepped up to the pinnacle of power......
