In the blink of an eye, December passed quietly, January 4, 1974.

I have been staying in Hong Kong for seven or eight days, Huo Yaowen is either a company, a crew, or a foundation every day, running for many days at three o'clock and one line, counting the days, it is only two months before Anna gives birth, and when he was thinking about returning to the UK in a few days, Gu Long suddenly came to visit.

Huo Yaowen picked out a bottle of XO from the wine cabinet in the living room, took two more wine glasses, walked to the sofa in the living room, opened the wine bottle cap, and poured it full for Gu Long.

Every time Gu Long came over, Huo Yaowen never made tea for him, because this kid didn't drink tea every time he made tea, he all went straight to the wine cabinet to get wine, and over time, Huo Yaowen didn't bother to make tea for him, and there was a little tea money left.

The two clinked glasses and took a sip, Huo Yaowen leaned back on the sofa and asked with a smile: "I heard that Brother Xiong is getting engaged?"

"You know, haven't you only been back for a few days?" Gu Long looked surprised, he came here this time to hand over the invitation, and wanted to invite Huo Yaowen to attend his engagement ceremony.

"Haha, you Gu Daxia is engaged, who doesn't know who doesn't know?"

This matter was also mentioned by Huo Yaowen when he went to "Kyushu Magazine" the day before yesterday.

"Now that you know everything, then you can put away this invitation, and if the red envelope is not qualified, I won't let you in. With that, Gu Long fumbled out a somewhat wrinkled invitation card from his jacket pocket, apparently carrying it on his body, and it was only after a bumpy ride.

After receiving the invitation, Huo Yaowen glanced at the day, January 8th, it was only four days, it was in a hurry, and he couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at Gu Long and ask, "No. 8?

"No way, like you, it's going to kill someone. ”

Gu Long didn't want to get married so early, since he divorced his ex-wife a few years ago, not to mention how chic he has been in the past few years, not to mention the sound of dogs and horses, singing every night, at least he is also a frequent visitor to the night club.

Marrying a wife to take care of himself, this is simply killing him!

Huo Yaowen is the girl who has seen Gu Long's engagement, she is very beautiful, her personality is also very good, and she is a good match, but when he thought of Gu Long's prodigal character, he couldn't help but say: "Since you choose to get married, then live well, and don't often go to nightclubs and other places to play in the future." ”

"Well, got it. Gu Long obviously didn't want to talk more about this matter, so he casually said a few perfunctory words.

Seeing Gu Long's perfunctory appearance, Huo Yaowen couldn't help but shake his head, just hoping that he would know it in his heart, and then spread out the invitation card and glanced at the place, "Taipei Hotel?"

Gu Long nodded: "Well, I have already planned, I will rent a boat at that time, pull all my friends in Hong Kong over, go and return on the same day, if anyone is willing to stay overnight, I have also booked more than a dozen rooms at the Taipei Hotel, you just need to bring this red envelope to the ferry that day." ”

"Okay, don't worry, I'll definitely be there on time!" As soon as he heard that Gu Long had planned it, Huo Yaowen patted his chest and said that he would definitely arrive on time.

Gu Long grinned and said, "It doesn't matter if you're on time or not, but the red envelope is definitely coming." ”

"That's natural, but I'm getting married this year, and your red envelopes are also indispensable!" Huo Yaowen laughed.

"You, a rich man, still lack this little red envelope money?" Gu Long pretended to be surprised.

"Haha, I'm really short of money, you don't know that raising children is very expensive. ”

"Then it looks like I'm going to save some money too. ”

After a burst of laughter, Gu Long suddenly asked, "When are you going to get married?"

"If nothing else, it should be July and August this year. ”

Mrs. Michelle and Grandma have been discussing the marriage for a long time, and they were originally scheduled to get married after Anna gave birth to a child, but Huo Yaowen didn't want to be in such a hurry, so he postponed it for a few months.

To this end, I also specially invited a clothing store in Britain that specializes in custom-made dresses for the royal family, and spent a lot of money to let them help design a wedding dress that belongs to Anna, and asked someone to purchase some raw jewelry, ready to order a set of jewelry, and also paid for the renovation of Anna's ancestral Westcastle.

In addition, the wedding was unexpectedly held at the castle, and July and August also happened to be the warmest and most comfortable season in the UK, so it was very suitable to hold a wedding. Combined with Anna's love of red roses, the potted flowers decorated on the spot at that time must be the freshest, and it is more than 100,000 pounds smaller.

And there are a large number of relatives and friends in Hong Kong, considering the problem of flights, Huo Yaowen is going to charter a few planes and arrange accommodation for everyone present, they come to the UK for a trip, it is impossible to attend the wedding and leave, or they have to stay for a few more days, which is another expense.

So much thought was put into it, so it ended up being scheduled for July or August, depending on the situation.

Although the date has not yet been set, for this wedding, Huo Yaowen can be said to have spent a lot of money, and almost all the manuscript fees for "Harry Potter 2" in the UK have been smashed, which is not a star and a half, at least millions of pounds.

"Can't compare, can't compare to ......"

Gu Long shook his head again and again, he spent millions of pounds on a wedding when he got married, and he didn't envy it in his heart, but he was not the kind of person to compare, plus he knew from Huo Yaowen that Anna seemed to be a nobleman with status in the United Kingdom, and it seemed reasonable to spend so much money on a wedding.

Huo Yaowen pretended to have a bitter face and said, "That's why I'm crying poor!"

"Don't, if you cry poor, I'm really poor!"

Gu Long waved his hand and said, "Awen, you know, the manuscript fee I send every month is always spent in four or five days." In a few days, the money for my engagement ceremony will still be a manuscript fee from the magazine!"

"I told you before that you should save some money and save more money. ”

Huo Yaowen smiled and said, "No, you can open a book again, so that the money will come?"

Speaking of which, those martial arts writers with Gu Long's name, although they dare not say that they have a lot of money, but at least they are comfortable, but Gu Long's life is the most uncomfortable, don't see that he often goes out to spend a lot of money and is not chic, but in fact, at the end of the month, his pocket is empty.

What if the average person has no money? It's nothing more than tightening the belt of their pants and waiting until the next month's salary.

But Gu Long is different, once he has no money, he will directly open a new book, write a beginning of tens of thousands of words, write a rough outline, find a publishing house or newspaper as soon as he submits it, and someone will immediately send money.

Gu Long sighed: "Forget it, the recent engagement has made my mind like paste, and I don't have the slightest inspiration." ”

"I think you've dug too many holes, and no one wants to be fooled!"

Huo Yaowen smiled at the corner of his mouth, but he knew how much Gu Long hated digging pits, not to mention anything else, just writing a manuscript in "Kyushu Magazine", Gu Long could also drag it out, but he couldn't drag it out, so he wrote back tens of thousands of words and handed it over.

The manuscript has dragged on for a long time, and the plot before and after is inevitably incoherent, but it can't stand Gu Long's writing, even if the protagonist in front of him just entered the restaurant for dinner, there is no reason, and the next chapter runs into the Qinglou Wind and snow, such a big loophole, those readers still read it with relish.

This also leads to the fact that most of Gu Long's works in the early and middle periods, as long as they are published in newspapers and magazines, are a bit incompatible, but if they are published books, these problems will be discovered by those editors in advance, and they will always find someone to ghostwrite them.

As for looking for the ancient dragon?

Hehe......

Forget it.

"How can this be considered a pit!"

Gu Long picked up the wine glass that was poured again, as if he didn't want money and drank XO's into his mouth, "I call this meticulous carving, the deeper you dig, the easier it is for people to jump in and not get out, so that you can deeply reminisce about the plot, so that you can't extricate yourself." ”

said that digging a pit is so fresh and refined, Gu Long's shameless kung fu, Huo Yaowen really wants to learn and learn, he has been busy with Anna recently, and he only writes "Jurassic Park" in his spare time, and nothing else.

As a result, readers of Harry Potter and Game of Thrones in the United Kingdom and the United States write or call Thames Publishing Company and Bantan Books Publishing Company every day.

Lituo also urged more than once, but Huo Yaowen used his wife's pregnancy as an excuse to block it directly.

"Harry Potter" is easy to write, but "Game of Thrones" is really a headache to write. R· It took R. Martin more than twenty years to finish the book. For such a long time, I don't know how many book fans have been sent away, but despite this, there are not a large number of readers waiting bitterly?

With this precedent, Huo Yaowen naturally doesn't mind delaying it for ten or eight years, postponing the completion of this book indefinitely.

After chatting for a while, Gu Long got up to say goodbye, Huo Yaowen went out to see him off, and when he arrived at the gate, he suddenly turned around and said, "By the way, Yaowen, don't give me a red envelope when I'm engaged!"

"What's the matter? I don't even want red envelopes?"

"No, I just want you to give me something. ”

"What do you want?"

"Cards!"
