Chapter 47: People are stupid and have a lot of money
Shen Xuan said these four words, Zhou Ziqing and his wife are also understanding people, how can they not understand, Zhou Ruoxuan is even more so, she came to Shen Xu's face, and then hugged Shen Xu's waist affectionately in front of Zhou Ziqing, and said reverently:
"Yue, do what you want to do, what you love is what I love Zhou Ruoxuan, I am willing to accompany you to the road you like in this life and this life, even if it is to the end of the world. ”
Zhou Ruoxuan's words moved Shen Xu!
Actually, this is all a preventive shot given by Zhou Ziqing and his wife to Shen Xu, and then Zhou Ruoxuan came out to show his loyalty, this is all a full routine!
Could it be that Zhou Ziqing's family has a plan against Shen Xu? What they want is nothing more than to let Shen Xu not be tarnished by the entertainment industry, and not let the entertainment industry's Yin Ziyan be confused, so as to abandon their precious daughter Zhou Ruoxuan.
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world! Even such a small thing is thought of for their children, how can this be a bad thing, so the more fathers-in-law and mothers-in-law, the better!
Zhou Ziqing and his wife looked at their daughter and son-in-law who hugged each other, and instantly felt restless in their hearts, since the old couple drank divine water every day, their bodies were full of vitality, and the old couple used to have a rare one-time life a month, but now it is basically once every two or three days.
The daughter and son-in-law hugged each other in front of them, which instantly made Zhou Ziqing and Li Murong throb, and their hands quietly pulled together, and then sneaked back to their bedrooms to do what they should do as adults.

Half a month ago, John, CEO of Hill, the largest publisher in the United States, received an email from China's largest publishing house, Huaxia Publishing House.
The content of the email was simple: asking them to distribute the English version of Harry Potter in the United States.
The two publishers have cooperated in the past, and both help each other to distribute various kinds of books on each other's behalf, and the distribution fee is 15% of the sales, and the printing cost is paid in advance by the copyright owner.
Such a mutual cooperation agreement must seem fair and reasonable, but the sales of all kinds of Chinese books in the United States can only be described as miserable, that is to say, Huaxia Company distributed books overseas, almost at a loss.
However, Hill Company asked Huaxia Company to distribute books translated from the United States or original editions on its behalf, and the sales volume was simply hot, and Hill Company made a lot of money in the Chinese market, and Huaxia Publishing House could only stare at the American market.
Of course, this has something to do with the current thinking of some people in China who worship foreigners and flattering foreigners, and of course, there are also differences in the cultural level of the two countries, and the reasons for this must be many.
As a publisher dedicated to promoting Chinese culture, Tang Wang had no choice but to do anything in the past, because he did not have good books in his hands that could attract Americans to buy them.
Now Tang Wang can finally send an email to John confidently, and the attachment to the email is the English version of "Harry Potter".
John looked at the cautious e-mail, curled his lips indifferently, and couldn't help muttering to himself:
"Hey! These stupid Chinese with a lot of money have come to give money again, and the countless books they used to sell can't be sold at all, and as a result, they still don't repent, and they have to toss once or twice a year. ”
Anyway, the printing fee is not paid by Hill, John is only responsible for contacting the printing company, and the distribution fee is almost zero for Hill, because many bookstores are directly owned by their company.
A broken book that has not been tested by any market, the Chinese side actually wants to print 100,000 copies from the beginning, since those stupid and rich Chinese love to toss, let them toss! As long as their company's books can be sold in that huge market in China.
John wasn't even interested in taking a look at Harry Potter, and he forwarded the email from Tang Wang directly to the head of the printing department.
As long as the people in the printing department print in accordance with the quantity and quality required by the Chinese side, and it is not twice that Hill Company and Huaxia Company have cooperated, and the people in the printing department will naturally do a good job in printing "Harry Potter".
The most satisfying thing for John is that the Chinese side never owes money to their company, otherwise John would not be so happy! People who are stupid and have a lot of money are upright, and John just likes to do business with such Chinese Yankees.
But John couldn't help but curse a few words:
"What a fucking fool, I don't have any market-tested books, and I dare to print 100,000 copies from the beginning, and I can't be so stupid if I have money!"
In the spirit of partner's morality, John felt that he still needed to remind his old friend Tang Wang, he immediately sent Tang Wang a persuasive email, and soon Tang Wang replied, Tang Wang's fool wanted to print 100,000 copies in one go, and said that the printing fee had been transferred to their company's account.
John looked at Tang Wang's reply, stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help muttering:
"A rich and self-righteous fool......"
Tang Wang is busy! He and more than a dozen middle-level managers of the company are busy contacting overseas distributors. As the largest publishing house in China, Huaxia Publishing has partners in some major countries around the world, and the process of contacting an agent is not difficult.
This is the essence of large companies, and the average small company really does not have the ability to publish globally, without strong funds, without a wide range of partners, and without translating works in advance.
With the support of these necessary conditions, the cautious "Harry Potter" is finally ready for simultaneous global release with the efforts of Tang Wang.
A rich and powerful old man, that can really make people struggle for less than 30 years! I can only say that this kid has a good life, so that one in a hundred million shit luck can be encountered, what else can you say.

After Director Feng went back, he immediately held a press conference, at which he announced the filming plan of "Three Lives and Three Worlds and Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms", starring Yun Yue, the author of the novel himself, and "Three Lives and Three Worlds" and "Cool Cool" sung by Yun Yue will become the opening and ending songs.
At the same time, this novel has also begun to be distributed on the Internet, and there will be physical publication later, and 15% of this money belongs to Yunyue.
This news is undoubtedly explosive news, and a well-known director actually wants to find an Internet singer Yun Yue who has never acted before to act in a TV series, which is a bit unacceptable!
What can be said from Director Feng's mouth can still be false, according to Director Feng's personality, it is definitely a sure thing.
The netizens in Yunyue's Baidu Tieba instantly discussed:
"Yun Yue is going to do that, isn't he an original singer? Why did he go to shoot a TV series again?"
"Ask Yun Da not to spoof, you can write a few songs that are popular all over the country with peace of mind, which is much better than acting in any TV series. ”
"I also think so, the more the songs are well written, the better they sing, the more they feel at ease to take the road of music, and they are absolutely popular. ”
"Haven't you noticed that the novel "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" was written by Yun Yue. ”
"The more you can write such good songs, it's normal to be able to write novels!"
"I really ignored this stubble, the two songs "Three Lives and Three Worlds" and "Cool Cool" are the theme songs of "Three Lives and Three Worlds and Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms", these two songs are so good, so tear-jerking, so will "Three Lives and Three Worlds and Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" be so touching?"
