Xu Zhidao: "But if you can have a high-quality million-dollar novel serialized in your newspaper, the profit will be far more than 300,000, not to mention that you can also establish your own brand during this time, Ming Pao was so successful back then." ”

Lin Wenzhou replied: "That's what I said, but this line of work has the rules of this line, whoever breaks the rules first, I'm afraid it will be targeted by everyone, not to mention that Kim Yong Kim is the Taishan Beidou in the literary world..."

Lin Wenzhou didn't say what he said later, Xu Zhi smiled and said: "If you don't believe in the quality of my novels, then there is no need to talk about it!"

Lin Wenzhou said: "I don't mean that, our newspaper is also a company, we need risk assessment, and the manuscript fee for you is a trivial matter, if we invest heavily in the development of news development, and the quality of the novel is not good, our small company can't afford it!"

Xu Zhidao: "As far as I know, Ming Pao relied on novels at the beginning, and other newspapers have really relied on their own news and business methods to get to the point where they are today, so how can I make my novels still have to bear the responsibility of management?"

Lin Wenzhou shook his head and said: "Those newspapers are all well-funded or developed after a long period of operation, so they invited more than 100 news reporters to the Oriental Daily as soon as they opened, and they are also their own property.

Xu Zhidao: "So I talk to you about the manuscript fee, and you talk to me about the risk of your newspaper? I am not a shareholder of your newspaper, and your risk is my business? Is it low if you give me less money?"

Lin Wenzhou was speechless for a while, and said, "Then I'll go back and discuss with the boss, and I will call you if there is news?"

Although the two have met a few times, they are not good friends, and after a few words of greeting, Lin Wenzhou was about to leave.

"Goodbye Lin Sheng, I hope there will be a chance to cooperate in the future!"

"Okay, I'm looking forward to it!" After shaking hands, Lin Wenzhou left.

Looking at Lin Wenzhou who was leaving, Xu Zhi couldn't help but worry about one thing.

"Sir, here is your bill. The waiter said with a smile.

Xu Zhi: "********"

……………………………………

A few days later, in a small house

Xu Zhi sat at the table bored, Kunlun had finished writing for a while, but his hands were still sore, and the parts that came into contact with the pen were no longer felt, even if he used his nails to pinch it, there was no too much pain. I clenched my fist and still felt sore.

The condition of his right hand made him afraid to write another novel, but unfortunately it is now 77 years, and Apple's computer should have just released a new computer, Apple II, and I don't know when it was released. If there is, Xu Zhi wants to buy it, but unfortunately the price is too expensive, the price is at least one or two thousand dollars, he can't afford this price, not to mention that there is no Chinese character input method in this era, and he can only type English when he buys it.

There has been no news in the past few days, so Xu Zhi roughly wrote out the plot of Drunken Boxing.

Fortunately, the movie is not long, Xu Zhi first wrote down all the dialogues, and then wrote down the background and environment of each shot, there is almost no plot in martial arts movies in this era, and those who have watched drunken boxing should also know that they fight without saying a word, and from the perspective of later generations, they are a group of neurotics, and there is no conflict of interest, so they hit their heads and bleed.

People all over the world still like square cars, so the cars are square, and the Santana jeeps introduced into China in the 80s are like this, and these cars are as ugly as they are in later generations, but people in this era just like them.

It took a few days and several times to write the plot, and finally the various plot plots were written, each shot with dialogue and scene description, and I don't know if it was a legendary storyboard script.

This is a script worth millions, in order to prevent the leakage of this information, it uses a lot of later Internet terms and dialects with different simplified homophones, anyway, only Xu Zhi can read and understand.

After confirming that there was no big problem, Xu Zhi stood up, slammed the dozens of joints of his hands, stretched his waist, and glanced at the alarm clock on the table, it was almost 11 o'clock.

Although Xu Zhi can make money now, after all, he stays at home for a long time, so the glorious task of cooking is handed over to him.

In his previous life, he lived alone for a few years, and he would often cook some side dishes, so there was no problem in this regard, the novel had been written, and Xu Zhi was relatively idle, but he was happy to take over the kitchen.

It's not that the people of Xiangjiang never understand that this city has unlimited opportunities and infinite misery for everyone.

The public housing where Xu Zhi's house is located is only 400 square feet in total, but it is divided into three rooms, basically each room can only put a small bed, and the walls around the bed are full of cabinets that can put some ordinary clothes, and there is a fan slightly larger than the iron pot on the top. Fortunately, there is almost no winter in Xiangjiang, otherwise there is no place to put that kind of thick clothes. Xu Zhi usually writes novels in the room, and he doesn't have a desk at all, but there is a small table with a high point on the bed, and people sit on the bed to write.

The room is smaller, Xu Zhi can still bear it, when it is cold, it is drilled, when it is hot, the air conditioner outside is turned on, everyone's room is open, anyway, the house is small, and an air conditioner is enough.

But the most unbearable thing is the kitchen and bathroom, people can hardly turn around when standing in the kitchen, and the refrigerator can't be placed, so it can only be placed outside, occupying the already small space in the living room.

And the bathroom is even smaller, the toilet is small and unspeakable, the space is small as long as you are in the shower, you can't take a step at all, many times you sit on the toilet, even so, it's the same as taking the plane economy class, you want to stretch your feet straight?

None of this is a problem, the question is:

Kitchen and bathroom together!

The kitchen and bathroom are in one line!

There is only one curtain in the kitchen and bathroom!!

Say important things three times!!

To enter the bathroom, you have to go through the kitchen

Because the width is so small, the sliding door can't be installed.

It's the most nightmare part, think of when you're cooking, and you're sweating profusely in a small space, and suddenly, a guy rushes in, gets between you and the wall, and then pulls back the curtains, performing indescribable physiological behaviors, and the occasional burst of deplicating sounds......

Although everyone is a family, we try to avoid this kind of thing, but this demand is sometimes uncontrollable, so every time before cooking, I basically have to ask who wants to go to the bathroom, and I have to come down, which basically relieves a lot of embarrassment.

It's a miserable life, right?

"Wrong !!", in Xiangjiang, this kind of intermediate level, worse than Xu Zhi's family abounds, some families of more than a dozen people are crowded together, the room is covered with several layers of beds, and the family still lives together after several sons get married, and then they give birth to children or are still together. It wasn't until I applied for public housing that I was relieved ---- went to the next hell.

A lot of public housing, old houses, use public toilets, that space is a little larger, the number of people available is more, and many times the queue for showers is longer than commuting to work. And the bath and bathroom are the same thing, I don't know where the tradition came from.

Of course, there are the lower floors, where beds are rented and live with dozens of strangers, and the beds are surrounded by barbed wire on several sides, known as cage dwellings, and the real activity space is even worse than that of a prison.

But fortunately, at noon there will be no one at home, the little sister went to school, the parents have not returned, take out a few dishes from the Xiaoice box - the dishes are exchanged, Xu Zhi's family generally takes the seafood that has just died to exchange some vegetables that have not been sold, so that the loss is saved, although it is not big, but this can save a lot of expenses at home.
