Chai Wan, Ming Pao.

Xu Zhi, Lin Siqi, Kim Yong and Shen Baoxin sat on the sofa and chatted casually.

After reading the outline of "A Chinese Ghost Story" brought by Xu Zhi, Kim Yong was amazed and said, "Xu Sheng's book is huge!"

Although Kim Yong Kim's story was known to Xu Zhi last time, it was just a brief introduction, equivalent to the introduction of the novel, and this time Xu Zhi brought a complete outline of the first half.

Xu Zhi smiled: "It's over, I actually prepared this book for two years, and I also checked a lot of information, but the world is too big, and it is too exhausting to write." ”

If Xu Zhi's family is here, it is estimated that they will immediately despise this guy, what was there two years ago? You were still in school two years ago, with the worst grades, and you go out every day to fool around.

Kim Yong nodded and said, "Yes, Xu Sheng, this half of your outline only has a storyline, although it looks huge, but it is actually like a tree trunk, although it is very thick, but it lacks branches and leaves, if you can complete all the details, it is definitely a good book." ”

Xu Zhi nodded and said, "So, how about sending the outline of this book to Ming Pao and writing it yourself?"

Kim was surprised: "Why does Xu Sheng himself refuse to write?"

Xu Zhi shook his head and said, "I don't have that much time. ”

Shen Baoxin answered with a smile: "Lao Cha, don't delay Xu Sheng! ”

Kim Yong Kim nodded and said, "I know that Xu Sheng's business is not small now, but the outline of this novel has been prepared, why not try to write it?

Xu Zhidao: "It's not that I don't want to write, but this book may exceed two or three million words according to the plan, even if I write 3,000 words a day, I have to write it for three years, which takes too much time, and I can't do it at all." ”

Kim Yong Kim: "A novel can improve the spirit of countless people, give people happiness and fantasy, this value is much more useful than making money, Xu Sheng may be too young now, he still doesn't quite understand, a literati can affect the culture of a country and a nation to a certain extent, maybe he can also be famous in history, this kind of honor, I'm afraid there are few businessmen in the world can do it, right?"

"Makes sense. Xu Zhi nodded, Picasso, Leonardo da Vinci and these literati are indeed famous through the ages, hundreds of years have passed, the contemporary rich and even kings have been completely forgotten, but these people are remembered by future generations.

Shen Baoxin also finished reading the outline and said: "Actually, Xu Sheng, although your outline is perfect, if you let someone else write it, it will definitely not be as good as you write it yourself, because many details and many ideas can't be written by others, you definitely have a lot of your own unique ideas when setting the outline, right?"

Xu Zhi nodded and said: "Yes, I also know that this may not be good for writing, but to be honest, I have more important and meaningful things to do, which is much more important than writing novels and making money, so I won't write it myself."

I came to Ming Pao today, in fact, because I don't want the novel I worked so hard to come up with will never see the light of day, I provide an outline, you Ming Pao has enough talent, and you will combine manpower to write this novel, this is my purpose. ”

Kim was curious: "What is so important? Isn't it a businessman?"

Xu Zhi shook his head and said: "The merchant is just making money, I can't say what I'm going to do now, and Cha Sheng will naturally understand why I did it in the future." ”

Kim Yong Kim nodded and said, "Okay, since Xu Sheng has already decided, we won't persuade each other anymore." I'll immediately arrange for some people to try to write the first story, and then we'll look at it together to see if they write well, and then they will work together. ”

Xu Zhi smiled: "Okay, no problem, but can you lend me the few eliminated, I want them to write the first in the world." ”

Kim Yong Kim also read a brief introduction to the world's No. 1 last time, and knew that it was a good book, so he asked, "Then where does Xu Sheng plan to serialize this world's No. 1 book?"

Xu Zhi said with a smile: "This is also the second thing that came today, I plan to open another newspaper by myself, and the first in the world will be serialized on this." ”

Shen Baoxin smiled bitterly: "Xu Sheng, you already had some influence on Ming Pao when you established Jiahe Daily, and now you are going to open another one, it seems that last year and this year are really ominous years for all newspapers!"

Xu Zhidao: "It's not true, our newspaper will not open in a short period of time, and now it is just a plan." ”

Shen Baoxin asked: "Why don't you open it now, if it's a matter of funds, we can also invest in Ming Pao, only account for shares, and will not participate in management." ”

Xu Zhi shook his head and smiled: "My newspaper is a little different, I'm afraid it will be too late for Ming Pao to hide, how can I invest?"

Kim Yong smiled and said, "You have so many ideas in your head, what's the difference?"

Xu Zhi shook his head and said, "I still can't say it now." ”

Since it is a trade secret, people don't want to say that Kim Yong Kim will not be embarrassed, and since the cooperation has been decided, it will be executed.

Jin Shen and the others naturally know Xu Zhi's roots, the huge profits of drunken boxing and the recent popularity of crane machines in Asia, so it is naturally impossible for them to treat Xu Zhi as an ordinary writer, including the agreement Xu Zhi signed last time, strictly speaking, it is not enough to give an outline. But no one would be stupid enough to force a person worth tens of millions to do such a low-income thing, even if Xu Zhi has some technical defaults, they don't care, and they turn their faces for a little profit, it would be too stupid.

A few people chatted casually, made an appointment for the next meeting, and Xu Zhi and the two left.

Lin Siqi finally got rid of his career as a driver for a few months and sat in the back seat of the car with Xu Zhi.

The original car has been allocated to Lin Siqi, and in addition, the company bought another car and allocated it to He Guoyuan.

As for Lin Wenzhou, he himself has a broken classic car, and it is okay to drive it normally.

In the car: Lin Siqi asked: "Why do we want to write the novel A Chinese Ghost Story to Ming Pao, in fact, I think we can write both books ourselves!"

Xu Zhidao: "It's difficult, we don't have this kind of connection, it's difficult to find a better ghostwriter, and it is very important for Ming Pao to give me that cash directly, this time it should be a personal favor, so that we can also invite better people to write the first in the world, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone." ”

Lin Siqi said: "I just think it's a pity, the story in it is very good, except for the hero and heroine who want to strangle the hero and heroine of this book, the other characters are very good, I really want to wait for the book to come out and take a good look." ”

Xu Zhi said with a smile: "I advise you not to worry, do other things, Ming Pao is generally only 2,000 words, you think about 2,000 words a day, sometimes it is interrupted, it is very painful." ”

The daily update is 2000, and the book friends at the starting point have the most experience......

Lin Siqi nodded, and asked again: "Boss, what is the more important thing you said just now, I see that you look very serious!"

Xu Zhidao: "What I said about this matter is true, a very serious matter, more important than making 1 billion US dollars, but it will take a while for me to have the ability to do it, for the time being, you can't know, this matter has too much impact, but I will bring you when the time comes, and you will naturally know it later." ”

"What would be so important?" Lin Siqi couldn't figure it out......
