Chapter 714: Writing a Biography for Someone
Qiu Shuisheng's face turned blue in an instant.
The literati are not nonsense, he is arrogant, and it is already good to be able to make Jiang Ming take a look.
Who knew that Jiang Ming didn't take it seriously at all, and it was very perfunctory!
Qiu Shuisheng endured the displeasure in his heart and said, "Mr. Jiang, you read my long article of 120,000 words in less than ten minutes, is that your evaluation?"
Tang Guo was a little anxious in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "Then Mr. Jiang, is there anything that needs to be improved?
Jiang Ming nodded, and was about to point out a few questions.
Qiu Shuisheng had a cold face and said, "No need." Guoguo, I said that I have been refining this article for a year, and there is no need to add or subtract. ”
He has this self-confidence.
Tang Guo was a little dumbfounded, he didn't expect this Qiu Shuisheng to be so arrogant.
You must know that the senior in front of him is a senior, although this senior seems to be younger than them.
Jiang Ming was not annoyed, and drank water with a smile.
"Are you Mr. Jiang?" said an unsure voice behind him. When I turned my head, I saw that it was a chubby and short middle-aged writer in Huaxia.
After the writer sat down, he took a sip of water and said, "Mr. Jiang, because of you, do you know how many people come to this publishing house to personally deliver manuscripts? No, so do I." Why don't you give me a look and introduce me to me?"
Another one asking for a recommendation.
This person's pen name is Fat Brother in the Chinese literary world, and he has a lot of fans. Jiang Ming remembered that he recommended him on Boke.
Jiang Ming glanced at Qiu Shuisheng, took a look, and said after reading it quickly, "It's a novel science fiction, I don't think it's a big problem to publish it in Europe." If I recommend it to you, it shouldn't be a big problem to print more than 100,000 for the first time. ”
Qiu Shuisheng sneered in his heart.
How much of the first print of the publisher is up to him?
Even if he is the hottest writer in this publishing company, people will not agree.
Sure enough, when I see a well-known one, I want to make friends, and no one cares about newcomers like him.
The fat brother was a little unsure: "Can there be 100,000 copies in the first printing? My last science fiction book, which was popular in China, was published in Europe and had a first printing of 60,000 copies, and I heard that it took several months to sell out." ”
It humiliated him.
The fat brother said: "I have actually shown this manuscript to their company, saying that it will be printed for a maximum of 40,000 copies, and the royalty will be 8%. "He was a little hesitant, so he came here again today to discuss it again.
Hua Tiangang whispered in Jiang Ming's ear: "Mr. McGill's meeting is over. ”
Jiang Ming nodded and said to them, "Come in with me." ”
Tang Guo's eyes lit up: "Mr. Jiang really has a high status in this publishing company." ”
They took the elevator upstairs, and when they got out of the elevator, they saw McGill in a formal suit striding over, and he said with sincere fear: "Mr. Jiang, I didn't expect you to come in advance, and you waited for me for so long." I've come out of the meeting quickly. ”
McGur was stunned for a moment when he saw the few people behind Jiang Ming, and then smiled at them again.
Tang Guo and the three of them were a little surprised, they thought that it would be the editor of the publishing house who received Jiang Ming, but they didn't expect it to be the general manager of the company.
And look at the attitude...... Why do you always feel a little flattering to him?
McGurner invited them to the drawing room.
The fat brother and Qiu Shuisheng were a little nervous.
Jiang Ming sat down and said to McGile: "This gentleman's pen name is Fat Brother, I have already read his manuscript, it is quite good science fiction." The first printing of 100,000 copies, 11% royalty. ”
McGur glanced at the nervous fat guy and was stunned.
Qiu Shuisheng sneered lightly in his heart, he was afraid that he would not have this face.
"This gentleman, I met yesterday in the company. McGill began. Because of the fat brother's body shape, he was still very impressed.
McGill looked at the fat brother and said with some complaints: "Since this gentleman knows Mr. Jiang, why didn't he say it earlier yesterday?"
If this had been said earlier, how could the company have lowered the price so much?
A group of people were stunned.
The fat brother was a little surprised and said, "You agreed?"
McGurner said: "What Mr. Jiang said will not be wrong. You then contact the previous editor to discuss the publication. ”
The fat brother is still dizzy, and that's the end of it.
When did their Chinese writers have such a big face?
McGurk looked at it and said, "Mr. Jiang, can we have a private chat?"
Jiang Ming smiled and nodded.
The fat brother and Tang Guo and Qiu Shuisheng went out.
Tang Guo stomped his feet, and said to Qiu Shuisheng with some complaint: "Brother Qiu, if you had listened to Mr. Jiang's words just now, maybe the managers would have agreed." ”
Qiu Shuisheng was still confused, how did he know that Jiang Ming's face was so big? Then the manager immediately agreed?
Qiu Shuisheng saw that the fat brother was communicating with the editor in the publishing house, and his heart was extremely uncomfortable......
Jiang Ming sat in the living room and looked at McGur with a smile: "What's the matter?"
McGurer smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Jiang, you are really popular in our Europe, as long as you pay attention to the book list, you will know." ”
Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows: "So?"
McGill said, "So...... The Lancaster family has been inviting you to write a biography of his life for him on several occasions lately. ”
Jiang Ming: "......" He doesn't even want to write an autobiography, and he still writes biographies for others?
Seeing Jiang Ming looking at him expressionlessly, McGur hurriedly said, "You know the prominent position of the Lancaster family in England. I once politely declined on your behalf, and I also offered to ask other well-known writers to write biographies, but there was some anger over there. ”
If someone wants to write a biography, then it is natural to invite the most well-known writers now.
Isn't the most popular thing now Mr.J? As soon as his book signing came out, tens of thousands of people braved the rain to participate, and even the police came to maintain order.
Except for Jiang Ming, they couldn't think of anyone else who now had his fame.
So the attitude has always been tough.
It was to let him go.
Jiang Ming smiled: "You want me to go? a biography of 200,000 pounds." ”
McGill almost squirted, this is really a lion's mouth!
Jiang Ming squinted slightly: "Or do you think it's not even worth 200,000 pounds for me to write a biography?"
McGurgall felt cold behind him.
Although he is not involved in the European underworld, he has a good relationship with Lawrence, the president of the European Superhuman Alliance, and Lawrence confided in him when he was invited to drink a few days ago.
A killer organization that was all more powerful than him was wiped out by Jiang Ming in one night......
One bite has cost four billion dollars and many lives.
For this kind of character, it only costs 100,000 pounds to help write a biography, which is really too cheap.
A million pounds is deserved, right?
McGurer was so frightened that he immediately nodded and said, "Mr. Jiang, don't worry, I will truthfully convey your request." ”
Jiang Ming stood up and said, "That's okay, I will be in Europe during this time, and I will contact you in time if I have something." ”
McGur saw Jiang Ming gone, reached out and touched his back, all in cold sweat.
Who would have known that this kind of personable-looking boy brother holds a butcher's knife in his hand and controls the life and death of others?
In the words of the Chinese people, it is a well-dressed beast!
After Jiang Ming walked out of the living room, he found that the fat brother was waiting for him, as if he wanted to thank him.
Tang Guo on the side pulled Qiu Shuisheng over and said, "Mr. Jiang, I hope you don't mind what happened just now." Can you give me some pointers and introduce you to Brother Qiu?"
Qiu Shuisheng's face stiffened, and he finally held back a sentence: "Mr. Jiang, I was too arrogant just now. I hope you can point me across. ”
How did he know that Jiang Ming had such a big say in this publishing company?
He was reprimanded by the little Tang Guo just now, and finally figured it out.
He may indeed have a literary level no worse than Jiang Ming, but if he is powerful, he is powerful because he is now an organic fate.
He can only compromise now, and he will be able to go farther than Jiang Ming in the future!
After thinking about it, he decided to listen to Tang Guo's words, apologize to Jiang Ming, and hope that he would give him some advice, and then introduce him.
Jiang Ming glanced at it: "If you want me to point out, it's too late." ”
Jiang Ming threw a sentence lightly and strode out with Hua Tiangang.
The fat brother looked at Qiu Shuisheng, who was already stunned, with a sympathetic expression, and said, "Young man, don't be too arrogant in this place in the literary world." He is younger than you, and he is also your senior. ”
The fat brother shook his head and chased after Jiang Ming and left.
Qiu Shui was so angry that his eyes were a little red.
This Jiang Ming is so humiliating?
