"Mom went to school to ask you for leave in person to take you to meet a very important person. Mother Liu said mysteriously.

"Editor-in-chief Yao of "Children's Literature and Art"?" Liu Jingting said in one sentence.

"This kid ......"

The mother and son sat in the car to the city center, the mother was in a good mood and dressed very decently, turned her head to look at her son, stretched out her hand to arrange the collar for him, and reminded: "Don't talk nonsense when you see Editor-in-Chief Yao later, people are very busy, and it is difficult to get a trip." ”

"I'll listen to my mom. Liu Jingting replied seriously.

"Children's Literature and Art" is a big magazine, my mother also read it when she was a child, and the last time the editor-in-chief Yao called to ask for a manuscript, I took it upon myself to agree for you, and it was also for your good. ”

"I know, by the way, Mom, I'm thinking that I'll review at home in the future, and I won't go to school, do you think it's okay?"

"You want to be beautiful. ”

“……”

The place where the editor-in-chief Yao booked is a Chinese restaurant called Dayan Building, with red tiles and cornices, the architecture and decoration style are quite ancient, Liu Jingting has seen the editor-in-chief Yao in the magazine before, and feels that he is an amiable teacher image, and when I see me today, I found that she is still slightly different from the image in the photo, and the editor-in-chief Yao in reality has another decisive and capable temperament.

The two adults greeted each other warmly, the mother praised the editor-in-chief Yao for being younger than in the photo, and the editor-in-chief praised the mother for teaching her children well, and the atmosphere was peaceful.

"To tell you the truth, there are still a lot of letters from parents in my office, all of which are urging your son-in-law to write a manuscript, children like to read it, and adults can't help it. ”

Parents are like this, Jingting also liked 100~10,000 \ small when he was a child!, saying that it is still this habit, and the books on his father's bookshelf have basically been read by him. ”

According to my observation, developing good reading habits can benefit children for a lifetime, and your son can write "Shuke and Beta" that fascinates children today, and he likes 100~10,000 \ small! ”

Liu's mother said modestly: "He has a talent for writing, and his father and I only recently discovered that he had won the second prize in the school essay contest before, and his score in the Chinese composition of the exam was not high." ”

Editor-in-chief Yao smiled and said: "Exam composition has little to do with writing ability, and many great writers can't write essays well when they are studying. ”

Liu Jingting opened his innocent eyes and listened carefully to the conversation between his mother and the editor-in-chief, but he was thinking in his heart: "It's time to get into the topic, right?"

"We don't understand this, anyway, he likes to write, and his dad and I will support it. ”

Editor-in-chief Yao nodded, and then cut to the point: "This time, I asked your mother to come out to meet, one is to ask you about your experience in teaching your children, and the other is to determine the contract issue, I am dissatisfied with you and said that after Xiao Jingting wrote "Shuke and Beta", there are not a few magazines and publishing houses that want to cooperate with him, but we "Children's Literature and Art" estimate that you also know that there have been many great writers, Jingting has potential, and our magazine wants to cultivate it well. ”

Mother Liu nodded happily and said, "Our generation is no stranger to "Children's Literature and Art", and it is his honor for the magazine to train him." ”

Liu Jingting nodded cooperatively, full of youth.

"Okay, let's sign the contract first, and then we'll eat. ”

Liu Jingting suddenly spoke: "Teacher Yao, I have something that I need to tell you in advance, so as not to cause you trouble later." ”

"You say. Editor-in-Chief Yao looked at Liu Jingting with a smile.

"I can only sign the book "Shuke and Beta" with you now, not anyone, because I still want to write martial arts novels, which is not good for your magazine, so I ......"

"Martial arts?" Editor-in-Chief Yao was slightly stunned, and turned to look at Mother Liu, who was also puzzled.

Liu Jingting nodded and said: "I have liked martial arts stories since I was a child, and I also like to write, I submitted a manuscript to "Dajianghu" before and it was adopted, I originally wanted to surprise my parents, but now I sign a contract with you, I feel that I have to make it clear." ”

"Did they sign a contract with you?"

Liu Jingting was noncommittal and said: "I told their editors that I only cooperate with them in martial arts novels, and I also sign books but not people." ”

Mother Liu was completely unaware, and looked at Editor-in-Chief Yao with some nervousness, Editor-in-Chief Yao frowned and pondered for a moment, and said, "If we don't sign someone, then we have to sign a special contract, an exclusive contract for fairy tale works." ”

Liu Jingting nodded and said: "This is no problem, I am going to write more than a million words for "Shuke and Beta", and it is estimated that it can be serialized until I am in college." ”

Since he said that this book can be serialized for three years, what is the difference between signing and signing a book? Liu Jingting's casual remark was actually to remind Editor-in-Chief Yao of this.

Editor-in-chief Yao is so old and spicy, after a little thought, he understood what Liu Jingting meant, such a contract can save "Children's Literature and Art" a lot of money, and Liu Jingting himself will get more ziyou.

Thinking of this, Editor-in-Chief Yao couldn't help but look at Liu Jingting again, and secretly wondered in his heart, this boy is really not simple, the untraceable prompt shows his intelligence, the requirement of signing books or not showing his self-confidence, and what is even more rare is that he is willing to confess to himself, this frank mind is a little admirable.

In fact, Liu Jingting can sign a contract with himself with more honorarium, and at the same time he can still continue to cooperate with "Dajianghu", because Liu Jingting himself is underage, as long as the two contracts are signed in the name of his father and mother respectively, this problem will be solved lightly, a martial arts and fairy tale style is too different, even if he votes for himself a martial arts manuscript, most of them cannot pass the review, and he can also take it out and publish it without violating the contract.

People treat me with the heart of a gentleman, and I should repay them with sincerity. Editor-in-chief Yao Zhengse said: "Then sign this book "Shuke and Beta" first, I will make adjustments to the details of the contract, and we will have a good meal today." ”

Liu Jingting said with a smile: "I will definitely live up to Mr. Yao's expectations for me, and in addition, if those parents are really urgent, I think I can change the magazine to a semi-monthly magazine, or publish a small magazine in the form of magazine peripherals, and I can guarantee six chapters of stories every month." ”

"Haha, Liu Jingting, you have shocked me too much today, and I sincerely hope to have more cooperation with you in the future. ”

Liu Jingting nodded with a smile and said a few words modestly, even if this cooperation was decided, Liu's mother's face changed several times, and finally she breathed a sigh of relief.

……

The next day, Liu Jingting had no choice but to go to school obediently, and the idea of studying and going to university has been ingrained in everyone's minds, and it is considered the most orthodox way out for a person to have a career.

Liu Jingting was a little depressed in his heart, he was in Dayan Lou in front of his mother and the editor-in-chief Yao to answer the stream, the table is so mature and scheming, and at once for the family to generate income of 30,000 yuan, equivalent to half a year's salary of his parents, under such a dazzling table, he confidently put forward the request that he did not want to go to school, but was still decisively rejected by his mother.

In addition, not long after Liu Jingting arrived at school, there was a small episode, the head teacher of the first year of junior high school called him out during the morning reading, and very politely asked him to tell him the content of the next three chapters of "Shuke and Beta", and he wanted to go back and tell his son.

Liu Jingting was naturally very embarrassed, this involved a content confidentiality agreement, and once it was leaked, he might have to eat a lawsuit, so he could only politely refuse, suing the teacher that he had already established a relationship with "Children's Literature and Art", and would publish a semi-monthly magazine, and at the beginning of May he would send out the story of the next three chapters, and at the end of May, there would be three more chapters, and so on.

The teacher naturally knew the difficulty, and it was not easy to force it, so he said thank you with some disappointment, and let Liu Jingting go back to the classroom.

Liu Jingting turned around and walked a few steps, and a picture suddenly appeared in his mind, a young teacher's father wanted to show his omniscient in front of his son, trying to establish an image of a great hero with both wisdom and strength for his son, but because his son asked a question about two mice, he suddenly had nothing to do.

This picture was really unbearable, so Liu Jingting turned to the young teacher and said: "Beta will soon meet Shuke, the two rats fought, but then they became good friends, and then they took risks and broke through together. ”

After listening to this, the young teacher's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "I think so too, I'm afraid that I will be ridiculed by my son for making a mistake, haha, thank you Liu Jingting, I will invite you to dinner another day." ”

On that April day, Liu Jingting stood outside the classroom and saw a happy dad who felt that what he was doing was meaningful.

After the morning reading class, Liu Jingting was about to go to the cafeteria to eat, but a few classmates surrounded him and asked about the story behind "Shuke and Beta", these junior high school graduates naturally don't have much time to read that story, but if they know the plot in advance, when they go home, they will be very face-saving in front of their younger siblings.

Liu Jingting was helpless, so he had to say that the story was thinking, so a few guys immediately put forward their own ideas, Liu Jingting responded with a smile, and quickly escaped, just out of the classroom door and saw Mi Hu standing under the flagpole with a smile and looking at him, Liu Jingting happily greeted him, and the classmates who came out continued to explain their opinions, and saw that the beauties had an appointment, so they had to walk away silently with greed and interest, but they couldn't help but curse a few words in their hearts, how could this kid be so lucky, he actually soaked in the big sister, and he looked so good.

The good-looking eldest sister Mi Hu took out a white box from her backpack, handed it to Liu Jingting, and said, "I'll send you a work phone number for easy contact in the future." ”

Liu Jingting took the phone and said thank you.

"There is also the first batch of manuscript fees for your "Dragon and Tiger Fighting Jinghua", two thousand two hundred yuan. ”

"I'll take the phone first, you can help me collect the manuscript fee first, and if you use the money later, call you to ask for it." ”

"It's not going to work......"

Liu Jingting interrupted: "If you don't accept it, I don't want your phone." ”

Mi Hu was helpless, so she had to say: "That's okay, I'll help you take this money first, but let's say okay, let's not take it as an example." ”

"Then I will talk about it, maybe you will have to take care of the manuscript fee in the future. Liu Jingting said lightly, but Mi Hu's face was red when he heard it, and it was even redder for a while.
