The whole word is no ads] Chapter oo2 Li Yan's request

In the middle of the first class in the morning, Liu Bing came to find Li Yan, and after Li Yan followed him out, he said to Li Yan: "Li Yan, Editor Liang is here, let's go over, remember to bring your manuscript of Zhuxian." (Free download of the full-character e-book)

"I can't forget. Li Yan raised the manuscript in Yang's hand and told Liu Bing that he had finished the first chapter and wrote a brief introduction.

"Let's go. Liu Bing nodded and instructed him to follow him down the teaching building and walk towards the office building.

There was nothing to say all the way, and the two soon arrived at the office of the first year of high school, through the steel window glass of the office, Li Yan saw a young man with eyes sitting in the office chatting with Wang Mingyi, there were several other teachers in the office, he knew all these teachers, only this young man was a fresh face, he should be the editor Liang mentioned by Liu Bing.

After entering the office, Liu Bing smiled and said, "Lao Liang, I invited our little writer Li Yan to you." ”

Editor Liang stood up from the chair, looked Li Yan up and down, stretched out his hand to him and introduced himself: "Contemptible Liang Kun." ”

"Li Yan. Li Yan stretched out his hand to shake him and smiled.

"Handsome and extraordinary, young and promising, fortunately, haha. Liang Kun smiled, he let go of Li Yan's hand, Li Yan's calm and generous made Liang Kun's evaluation of him increase by a few points.

"Editor Liang has won the award, I am just an ordinary high school student, and being able to sit here and talk to Editor Liang is the result of Mr. Liu's spare support. Li Yan said to Liang Kun.

"Lao Liu, worthy of being a student you taught, gentle, knowledgeable, humble and generous, very good. Liang Kun smiled at Liu Bing.

"Lao Liang, don't put a high hat on me, let's talk about business, let's talk about business again. Liu Bing waved his hand and said.

"Okay, let's talk about business, Li Yan, don't stand there, let's sit down and talk. Liang Kun said to Li Yan, who was still standing.

Li Yan nodded to Liang Kun and moved a chair to sit opposite him, while Liu Bing also moved his chair over and sat around the two of them, Wang Mingyi and several other teachers sat at their desks and also expressed concern to the three people sitting together, they obviously also knew what the three of them were going to talk about, and their students were able to write a book for publication, and these teachers also felt very honored on their faces.

"Li Yan, this time I came on behalf of the publishing house, the main thing is to ask you to talk about the issue of publishing your book, and there are still some agreements that you need to sign, the specific situation is like this, your book publishing house is going to publish in principle, but there are some situations that need us to communicate. Liang Kun said to Li Yan seriously.

"Speak, please. Li Yan nodded.

"Mr. Liu should have told you the specific situation of our publishing house, Yuan Yi would not have published martial arts books, but in response to the call of the province, this year's publishing house policy has undergone some changes, the publishing house attaches great importance to the first popular book to be published during the transition period, in order to fire the first shot, the publishing house was going to ask some well-known writers to make an appointment, but Lao Liu sent you to the publishing house at this juncture." Liang Kun paused when he said this, as if he was organizing the language, and seemed to be waiting for Li Yan to digest this passage.

"Maybe you don't know, your Mr. Liu's status in the original provincial altar is second to none, and the quality of the works he personally sent over must be guaranteed, so your publishing house has been highly valued by Editor-in-Chief Chen, he personally reviewed your repeatedly, and held many meetings to discuss your works, and finally decided to give up the famous manuscript and use your pioneering work as the publishing house in the transition period, so once you are published, the publishing house will definitely "spend" a lot of effort to publicize, and you don't have to worry about sales. ”

"But you also have to know that this time the publishing house is actually taking a big risk, although yours is not worse than some famous writers, but you are a new author, and the same you write and famous writers write out are not comparable to the "sex", which may be a little cruel to you, but it is a fact. Liang Kun said carefully.

"Editor Liang, I understand what you said, so you don't have to worry about my self-esteem being hurt or anything, I still have the ability to bear it. Li Yan smiled.

"Hehe, it seems that I am overthinking. Liang Kun breathed a sigh of relief, according to his mindset, genius teenagers are often arrogant and can't see others better than him, so he will try his best to express his thoughts in euphemistic language, but now it seems that the genius boy in front of him is like an adult who is well versed in human accidents, and his careful choice of words and sentences seems to be in vain.

"Lao Liang, my student's psychological endurance is much better than you think, if you have anything to say, just say it, there's no need to beat around the bush, it's uncomfortable to listen to. Liu Bing also laughed and said.

Wang Mingyi, who was listening secretly on the side, laughed secretly, as Li Yan's homeroom teacher, he has a deep understanding that Li Yan's maturity often makes her have an illusion, and subconsciously treats him as a peer, and now Liang Kun is obviously also "confused" and "confused" by Li Yan's age, so he is afraid of accidentally hurting his self-esteem, and he is careful when he speaks, and several other teachers in the office who are familiar with Li Yan also "show" a smile, it is estimated that they have the same idea as Wang Mingyi.

"That's right, in order to minimize the risk of this trip, the publisher requires you to buy 100 books yourself, and of course, the form of the manuscript fee must also be discussed with you. Liang Kun has the previous experience, and he no longer beats around the bush, and tells his main purpose to open the door to the mountain.

"It's okay to buy a book, Mr. Liu has already told me before, and as for the manuscript fee, I also told Mr. Liu that my purpose in publishing this book is not for money, so this matter is also very negotiable, but I once made a request to your society, I don't know if you know. Li Yan said with a smile.

"I know your request, and the publishing house has also held a special meeting to discuss your request, and our conclusion is that we can't agree to your request, because Yuanyi has no precedent for directly advertising in the book. Liang Kun said.

"Editor Liang, I don't know if Mr. Liu made it clear to you at the time, my condition is the bottom line for me to publish this book, if your society can't agree, I'd rather not publish this book, to tell you the truth, my book is actually the plot blueprint of a game we are opening, and the purpose of my publishing this book is also for our game, you can think about the problem from a different angle, and my request is not an advertisement for the game, because the version of the swordsman romance and the game version of the swordsman romance game are the same thing, so there is nothing wrong with adapting the game of the same name on the postscript of the title。 Li Yan gave Liang Kun a very clear message, that is, this requirement is mandatory, not an option, and if the publisher does not agree to his request, it will have to be split up.

"Lao Liu, look. Liang Kun was very embarrassed and asked Liu Bing for help, Li Yan's request was resolutely opposed by many old editors when the publishing house got it to the meeting, they thought that learning was serious, and such a book that should have been very serious was changed from a computer game, which made it difficult for them to accept, on the contrary, the opposition of some young editors was not particularly strong, and even a few editors had a strong interest in the game of the same name.

"The book was written by Li Yan, and he has the right to publish it or not, I just played a role as a matchmaker, and I don't care about anything else. Liu Bing waved his hand and smiled, saying that Liang Kun was not paying attention, he squeezed his eyes at Li Yan, and pointed to the manuscript he had been holding in his hand.

"Li Yan, I will convey your request to the publishing house on your behalf, but don't get your hopes up, if you really insist on doing this, it is likely that there will be great resistance, I hope you understand what I mean. Liang Kun said.

"I understand that if that is the case, it would be a pity, I was going to submit the next book to your publisher, and it seems that I will have to find another publisher. Li Yan said regretfully, his words made Liu Bing smile, Liang Kun's eyes lit up, and Wang Mingyi and several other teachers looked at Li Yan curiously.

"Did you write a new one?" Liang Kun asked, the excellence of the swordsman's love made him full of expectations for Li Yan's next book.

"I just wrote the beginning, and I believe that this should be more 'refined' than the swordsman romance, because it is a completely new theme. Li Yan raised the manuscript in his hand and said, "But if this book is to be published, I will also make the same request as the swordsman relationship, I don't think your society will be interested." ”

"Can I take a look first, maybe it's a turnaround or not?" Liang Kun asked unwillingly, Li Yan's words completely hooked his interest, you know, popular studies are not valued in the traditional publishing field of the original art, as the editor-in-chief of the original art popular science department, his status in the publishing house is not high, and this publishing house transformation and Li Yan's gave him a chance to rise, swordsman love in his opinion is the best martial arts that can be seen in recent years, and now Li Yan gave him a surprise, that is, Li Yan wrote a more "fine" color, so sent to the "door" He was not willing to give up the opportunity easily.

"Li Yan, you just let Editor Liang take a look first, after reading it, Editor Liang will be more confident to help you speak in the publishing house. Liu Bing said.

At this time, Li Yan finally understood why Liu Bing asked him to bring the manuscript of Zhu Xian, he handed the manuscript to Liang Kun and said: "I named this kind of theme Xianxia, and it is not a new theme, to really trace back, Shu Mountain, which was written by the Lord of Huanzhu Mansion during the Republic of China, is the real originator of this theme, and my book is called Zhu Xian." ”

Liang Kun opened the manuscript and read it carefully, Li Yan and Liu Bing looked at each other and smiled, he never thought that Liu Bing, who has always been serious and upright, would also play with such a heart, and the inadvertent cooperation between him and Liu Bing has reached a seamless realm.

"Okay, Li Yan, if you agree to 'hand' over this book to Yuanyi for publication, I have the confidence to persuade those old stubborns to complete your request, but the manuscript only has one chapter, and the persuasion is a little weak. Liang Kun only read the beginning, and was attracted by the imaginative world structure described by Zhu Xian, if the book was really as "fine" as described in the final introduction attached to Li Yan, his bargaining chips with those old stubborn ones would be much heavier, and the balance of victory would be completely tilted in his favor.

"Editor Liang, it seems that we are on the same front, and we can help our comrades repel the enemy, why not Li Yan, if Editor Liang can wait for me for a week, I will personally send the first volume of Zhu Xian to you, what do you think?" Li Yan said with a smile.

"Isn't a week too short, how many words do you prepare, how many volumes are there?" Liang Kun asked suspiciously.

"Zhuxian has about two million words, a total of eight volumes, each volume is about 200,000 to 300,000 words. Li Yan smiled.

"Can you write more than 200,000 words a week?" Liang Kun looked at Li Yan and thought that he was looking at a monster, this degree is also a big challenge for the network-level Kuaishou in later generations, not to mention the current era of writing "spring" and autumn completely with a pen.

"I guess so. Li Yan said with a smile, he was originally enjoying the fun of pen farming, and it seemed that he could only suspend this fun, because writing a book a week, if he didn't use a computer, he couldn't write it if he was exhausted.

"Li Yan, I don't want you to have to rush and cause the quality to drop, if you need time, I can wait a few more weeks. Liang Kun said to Li Yan very seriously.

"No need, I will write it out and let Mr. Liu review the manuscript first, and then 'hand' it to you, so you can rest assured. Li Yan smiled.

"Well, in short, quality comes first, and you have to keep that in mind. Liang Kun saw that Li Yan insisted, and no longer persuaded him, but he still reminded him uncomfortably, if Li Yan gave him a garbage book in a hurry, it would only make people laugh when it was taken out at the publishing house, and it would increase his bargaining chips there.

"I understand, I cherish my pen name, it's my second life, and I don't want to ruin my reputation by writing some trash words. Li Yan said with a smile, he didn't plan to use his real name, but chose a pen name for himself - Tai Chi Jushi.

"Li Yan, it seems that there is no need to talk about the issue of manuscript fees for the time being, this is the manuscript fee plan drawn up by the publishing house, you can take it and see it first, and we will discuss it when you send me the manuscript. Liang Kun took out a piece from the public bag and handed it to Li Yan, and then said to Liu Bing: "Old Liu, after talking about business, shouldn't you do your best to be a landlord and invite me to your house to eat a bowl of hand-rolled noodles made by my sister-in-law?"

"Haha, it's easy to talk about, we'll go in a while, Li Yan, you go back first." Liu Bing said with a smile.

Li Yan did not leave directly, but came to Wang Mingyi's desk, and shouted a little embarrassedly: "Teacher Wang, discuss something for you." ”

"What's the matter, do you have to ask for leave again, go ahead, go ahead, write and come back. Wang Mingyi didn't wait for Li Yan to say, he already knew what Li Yan was looking for him, so he waved his hand to him with a smile and said.

"Thank you, Mr. Wang, I'm back in the classroom. Li Yan said to Wang Mingyi with a smile, and said hello to Liu Bing and Liang Kun, and was about to leave with his manuscript and manuscript fee, but was stopped by Wang Mingyi: "Li Yan, don't forget about the computer competition." ”

"I know, I can't forget. Li Yan answered, lifted the curtain of the "door" and went out.

ps: Daily more 1+, this is the limit of green tea, and then writing thinking will dry up, so tired, if anyone takes the book off the shelves because of the slow update of green tea, it should really be dragged out and spanked.
