Chapter 625: Crazy Editing [Five More Requests for Subscription]
The plane took off with some bumps and flew in the northwest direction, but Zhang Chu turned off his mobile phone but did not feel any sleep.
What happened today shocked him greatly, and now he regrets it a little, why didn't he write this book earlier?
If he had written it earlier, maybe his popularity would have been very different now!
However, Zhang Chu smiled self-deprecatingly, this "Da Vinci Code" is now so popular is also based on his own readership.
If you write from scratch, it may take a long time for the book to be discovered by readers because of its excellent quality, and you will not be able to get the high upfront fee and royalty tax rate that it is now.
The light was shining overhead, and Zhang Chu had already unfolded all the sleeping equipment, but now he decided to take out his iPad and connect it to the wireless, and take advantage of this time to find out all the pictures needed for the illustrated version.
If you come to travel with a laptop, it is obviously a bit heavy, and an iPad is a good choice, not to mention the ease of use, and the power is very long-lasting.
Zhang Chu chose a comfortable position to lean on the back of the chair, and he first clicked on the email sent to him by Blair, which contained the official websites of those museums or the addresses of internal management websites, as well as usernames and passwords, which made it easier for him to find.
The Louvre, the Bibliothèque Nationale de France, the Royal Observatory of Greenwich, and the Archives Society of London are all well-known professional websites, and Zhang Chu must choose the right pictures from this professional institution to put in the right place!
The vast expanse of images gave him the feeling of encountering a magnificent historical and artistic marvel, and the Louvre was clearly the first choice, as it was here that everything from the Mona Lisa to the Last Supper took place.
After Zhang Chu saved these high-definition pictures, he made up a serial number, so that he could insert the pictures into the document at that time, and this serial number is the mark.
The Vitruvian people, the Church of St. Sulpis, the Rose Line, Our Lady of the Rocks, the Bourne de Brauné, and even the Zurich Savings Bank, which Yang Xuan regarded as the Templar Church, the Rosslyn Church, and many more.
If you can call the name of the picture, you can search directly in the picture library, and if you can't call the name, you can only find it slowly according to the classification, which is an extremely huge project!
As for the mirror text, he plans to find a software to input it later, and the mirror text can also be made into a picture for readers to understand.
When Zhang Chu raised his head and pinched his sore neck, he turned his head to look at the scenery outside the window, the bottom had changed from bright lights to black, I don't know where it is now!
It's not easy to find pictures, Zhang Chu feels that his eyes are going blind, and sometimes he can't tell the gap between several pictures.
Fortunately, he was guided in his search, with a clear goal, and it took him two or three hours to find a small part.
"I have something to pass the time when I'm on the train or waiting for the plane in the next few days. ”
Zhang Chu said to himself, he carefully memorized the progress and put the iPad away, then put the back of the chair down, wrapped a small blanket and began to sleep.
It also takes 10 hours to fly directly from Yanjing to Istanbul, and due to the time difference and the influence of the earth's rotation, the plane arrives at almost 3 o'clock in the morning, so he has to catch up on sleep!
The advantage of the first class cabin is that you can sleep in the bed, and you don't have to sit all the time, and your buttocks and thighs can be numb.
Man is a strange creature, the more he wants to sleep, the more he can't!
After Zhang Chu turned over, he simply entered the savior system, he wanted to see the long-lost system.
"150 million prestige?
He could see that the number of reputation points was still increasing, and the speed was very fast.
This time, it all relied on the huge topics and attention that Random House helped to set off around the world, because this time the news was mainly focused on Zhang Chu, the writer, and "The Da Vinci Code" was secondary.
The various media reports are also writers, because everything is unknown about the content of the work, and there is no way to report it!
Now Zhang Chu's speed of using reputation is far less than the speed of generation, and he has no other use except for using the system to view his previous life.
There are a lot of tricky gadgets in the system store, and these things are not used.
Today he discovered another feature of the system, which is a private cinema in the true sense of the word!
He can see the movies on the earth through the off-site help function, and these movies appear in his mind, and the audio-visual effect is very good.
If you can use a system so salty, there will probably be no one else!
If the savior system could beat people, it would have beaten Zhang Chu, an unenterprising host, a long time ago, and he should learn from other traversers.
Zhang Chumeizi chose "Blade Runner 2049", and the wasteland aesthetics and chronic poetry in the film helped him find his sleepiness in a moment.
While he was asleep, the rest of the world had no time to rest, they were working overtime.
October 6 is just a global press conference, and the specific launch time is October 10, so Nanhai Publishing Company must launch the hardcover and paperback editions!
As for the illustrated version, because it's a collector's series, it's not a hurry.
Fortunately, Zhang Chu has said before that the cover is Mona Lisa, and this painting is perfect for the title of the book.
Review editors stay up all night reviewing common sense errors, spelling mistakes, policy errors, and so on.
If it is an ordinary author, the editor will find the most favorable market selling point based on the content judgment and let the author adjust the text!
For example, the content is deleted, the direction of the text is modified, the catalog frame is classified, and so on.
The content must not involve sensitive words and do not violate the publication regulations, and then the correction suggestions will be sent to the author, and the proofreading work will be carried out again after the corrections are completed.
But that's just ordinary authors, and editors only have advice when faced with established authors.
What the review editor needs to do when facing the manuscript submitted by the author is to find out the errors in logic, units, diagrams, domain names, allusion citations, literature sources, etc.
But now the review editors of Nanhai Publishing Company want to cry, don't bring such a bully!
Zhang Chu wrote about things that they rarely came into contact with, and the interpretation of the Mona Lisa's portrait alone was enough to make the editors dumbfounded.
But there are more things beyond their ability and knowledge in the future, how can this be reviewed?
Not to mention religion, history, geography, and art, they haven't even been to any kind of church, so they don't know if the description is accurate, and they don't know if it's in this place!
As for the mysterious symbols in Zhang Chuzhong and the endless stream of riddles and code words, these review editors are even more crazy.
The Fibonacci sequence, which fits perfectly into the golden section of Vitruvian Man, the hermaphrodite of the Mona Lisa......
There are countless religion-themed stories since ancient times, and most of them are far-fetched fictional stories.
However, "The Da Vinci Code" is ashamed to write on the title page that "the content of this work is accurate", which is a rare claim.
So this hurt the editors, in order to reduce some loopholes and mistakes, they had to stay up all night to make full use of Qiandu and Google searches, and even record the problems one by one, ready to find experts and scholars.
How to drive the review editors crazy, Zhang Chu made a very good demonstration!
