The person who wants to become strong as soon as possible is not only Guo Ziyi, but also Yu Ying, who insists on coming to the Sahara Press every Friday to attend classes.

Yu Ying, who received a support fund of 50,000 yuan, does not seem to have changed much in her life, except for her residence - she moved out of a dark and crowded urban village and took her family to live in an ordinary, quiet and beautiful old-fashioned community.

This is a welfare housing community of a state-owned enterprise that has been built for more than 20 years, and Yu Ying rented a house from an old worker who had moved out. Although it is still a staircase room, it is still a two-bedroom and a living room, but compared with the urban village where I lived before, the current house is much more spacious, the windows are bright and clean, and it is also breathable, so it is more comfortable and warm to live in!

However, Yu Ying still continued to work in the restaurant, and she did not dare to quit her job to concentrate on writing.

Yes, she doesn't have the courage to break the boat, but this is beyond reproach, after all, she still has the responsibility of raising her daughter, how dare she cut off the family's only source of income before she has a new stable income?

Of course, it is still very hard to work and write at the same time, not to mention that Yu Ying is engaged in the catering service industry and works long hours. But Yu Ying still persevered. Moreover, she still insists on coming to the Sahara Press every Friday to listen to lectures, ten or a hundred times harder than when she was a student.

Strive to become stronger, Yu Ying is to earn a better future for her family!

......

On the third Friday of May, Yu Ying came to the Sahara Press again.

However, today the Sahara Press is a bit lively, with banners and decorations at the door, and some people who look like reporters gathering, or taking pictures, or talking, walking inside in twos and threes.

"I...... There Are Dreams - Sahara Press Children's Book Author Support Fund...... The first press conference to support the publication of works!" Yu Ying read the content of the banner softly. (Note 1)

A familiar voice came from the side: "Donnell." ”

"Smell editor. Yu Ying turned her head to look, only to find that it was her editor-in-charge, Wen Xuefeng, who happened to be receiving reporters at the door, "What did you say?"

Wen Xuefeng said with a smile: "Donnell, the protagonist of today's press conference, he, like you, is a rookie author supported by the support fund and a father. His book was published today, and because it was the first work to be completed and published with the help of the support fund, the publishing house arranged a relatively grand press conference for him. ”

I have to say, this is a very lucky guy!

"So fast, his book has already been published?" Yu Ying was a little surprised, her manuscript was very slow, and she only wrote the third story.

Of course, this is also because she treats her works with excellence according to the advice of Editor-in-Chief Lu. For example, after attending a class at the Sahara Press, she would constantly revise or even rewrite the previous manuscript according to the new insights she had gained until she was satisfied.

"Don't worry, you're not the same as Donnell. Wen Xuefeng comforted, "Donnell writes a short story, and he is also a painter, so the book is published quickly, and you write a long story, of course, it takes longer to create." ”

What Wen Xuefeng said is not right, Tang Nai is not a painter, he is just a student who graduated from the art major, and before he met the support fund, he was more depressed and poor than Yu Ying, so he could only earn some milk powder money by painting portraits of people in the square.

Sahara Press gave him a chance to change, not only by giving him a place to live, but also by teaching him how to change his original style of painting to suit his children's preferences. Of course, Donnell also put in the effort to have the current picture book published.

It's a very inspiring story, and it's sure to be covered by a lot of media tomorrow.

However, people don't just need inspirational stories, they also need to face reality.

Yu Ying asked Wen Xuefeng very realistically: "How much money can he earn after his book is published?"

"How do you know this, it depends on how much he can sell!" Wen Xuefeng and Yu Ying walked into the publishing house, and whispered with a smile, "But ah, I don't think it's too bad, the marketing department has done a survey before, and the market for children's literature is very large, you think Mr. Yang is the first collection of fairy tales, published for more than a year, and now he can still have millions of after-tax income every month." Donnell is not as good as Mr. Yang, but at least he can earn hundreds of thousands, millions, right?"

Even if you earn so much in one book, it will completely change Donnell's life!

"So many?" Yu Ying's eyes widened in surprise after hearing this.

"Yes, so, write a book well! Encountering Sahara Press and Mr. Yang is an opportunity that others dream of. Wen Xuefeng suddenly pursed his mouth and motioned for Yu Ying to look at the other side.

Yu Ying looked over, and she saw that at the gate of the largest conference hall of the Sahara Publishing House, Editor-in-Chief Lu and several high-level officials of the publishing house were hugging Yang Yi, and Yang Yi and a man were shaking hands with a smile.

"That's Donnell. Wen Xuefeng sighed, "The author of the first book to publish is very lucky, because he is the first, so the publicity of the publishing house will be more grand." In the future, authors and published books may not have such a grand press conference, and at most, some authors who sell better books will be invited to attend some events or book signings. ”

Yu Ying didn't care about these vain, she saw Yang Yi shake hands with the other party, and after saying a few words, she left from behind with a bag.

"Hasn't the press conference started yet?, why did Mr. Yang leave?" Yu Ying asked Wen Xuefeng puzzled, "Doesn't he attend the press conference?"

"Don't participate, Mr. Lu invited Mr. Yang, but Mr. Yang said that Donnell is the protagonist today, and he is not good at taking the lead. Wen Xuefeng said.

Indeed, Yang Yi is too famous, if he appears at the press conference, he will definitely steal most of the limelight, and the objects of reporters' questions will undoubtedly fall on him.

"Then why did Mr. Yang come?" asked Yu Ying in confusion.

He came to meet Donnaeus and give Donnaeus a little encouragement to the new author. This is Mr. Lu's request, but I didn't expect Mr. Yang to be such a busy star, so he still took the time to come over. ”

Wen Xuefeng sighed: "That's why I said that you can meet Sahara Press and Mr. Yang, which is an opportunity that many people dream of. Mr. Yang's family has a big business and can't look down on this little money, so our publishing house gives the author the most generous treatment, and there is a complete industrial chain, which can help the author achieve the best development of his works! Even if you don't know how to draw like Donnell, the publishing house has dozens of artists who can help you make picture books. ”

Although after chatting with Wen Xuefeng, Yu Ying still went to the free training class held by the publishing house every Friday to listen to the lectures, but her mood could not be calmed for a long time.

Yu Ying's mind kept coming up with Donnell's excited smile outside the conference hall just now, as well as the red light on his face.

"I can be as successful as he is!" a new desire rose in Yu Ying's heart, which was the second flame of "why write" that she ignited in addition to her initial need for money.

Of course, money is still the most important thing!

Publishing a book may earn hundreds of thousands, millions, so that she does not have to worry about no income, can quit her job, write at home well, and better accompany her daughter.
