Chapter Thirty-Seven: I'm Kind, but I'm a Bandit
"Brother Huangxin, this is the cold heart I told you, Luo Qing, the author who serialized "Heavy Life" on my website. He Qin looked at the somewhat nervous young man in front of him and patted him on the back.
"Sit down, don't be nervous, He Qin has already told me, your "Heavy Work" is well written!" Wang Xin smiled "The warm wind blew, I remembered that summer, my youth, the love letter that was not sent, the bowl of mutton soup that was not drunk, and the basketball game that was not finished." ”
Although He Qin had already been vaccinated, Luo Qing still couldn't help but be nervous, one was the most famous martial arts writer Dugu seeking defeat, and the other was the president of the publishing house, he never thought that what he wrote would have a chance to be published, "Hello, Brother Huangxin." ”
Time goes back to two days ago, Luo Qing finally found a job, logged in to TT, which had not logged in for a long time, saw the friend application from He Qin, and clicked agree.
"Are you the god of Dugu?" Although the verification information had already been written, Luo Qing still couldn't believe that Dugu, the author of the best-selling book, would take the initiative to add himself as a friend, and sent out this message nervously.
"It's me, hello, cold heart. After completing a book signing, He Qin, who took a bath, received this news: "Are you interested in publishing the novel "Heavy Work"? ”
"Publishing, do you mean me?" Luo Qing couldn't tell his mood when he saw He Qin's news, excited, shocked, incredulous, or mixed in, the guy on the other side wouldn't be a liar.
"Yes, I want to publish the novel 'Heavy Life' for you. He Qin replied, adding in his heart that there may be film and television adaptations in the future, "At ten o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow, do you have time, Qixia Publishing House, let's talk about the publishing contract specifically." ”
"Yes, yes. So, Luo Qing dressed very formally and came to the loudest publishing house this summer.
"It's a contract, you see. He Qin handed Luo Qing a prepared contract.
Luo Qing picked up the contract, this is a nine-percent sharing contract, which is different from the contract He Qin got from Wang Xin, but it is a reasonable range for newcomer authors, in Wang Xin's eyes, no author can compare to He Qin, but for He Qin's sake, it is already a relatively high sharing ratio, and the difference in this contract is that He Qin will take one percent of the commission.
"This is a sharing contract, and the one percent commission is a royalty for He Qin, which you can also understand as an agency fee, and if you don't want to, we can also sign a buyout contract. Wang Xin explained.
"No, I do. Luo Qing shook her head fiercely, the world seems to have subverted her cognition, she is not a tabula rasa who knows nothing, the nine percent share is very high, as for He Qin's one percent share, it is to prevent herself from being burdened with human debts, "Heavy Work" can get this contract, except for He Qin's own favor, Luo Qing can't think of anything else.
"I won't say anything big, I hope this book can make you change your current life, at least you can buy a down payment for a house in Tianjing, even if it fails, in the near future, it will be slowly realized. Seeing Luo Qing sign his name, He Qin patted the loser on the shoulder.
"I believe you, Dugu God, you are a miracle!" Luo Qing nodded fiercely, trying not to let the tears of happiness flow out, such a person, it is worth selling his life to him.
"Come, have a glass of wine and celebrate. Wang Xin brought up the liquor that had been prepared for a long time, tea, books, and wine, which are the main reserves of Qixia Publishing House, and people in the rivers and lakes should drink and eat meat.
Luo Qing took the wine glass, clinked glasses with He Qin and Wang Xin, and drank it all...... Cough...... Cough...... It's so spicy!" the spicy liquor swirls on the tip of the tongue and flows into the body, and the spicy taste hits over.
"Hahaha...... Young man, don't drink it in such a hurry, this is our own high-purity liquor, ah...... Delicious!" Wang Xin laughed a few times, and drank it all like Luo Qing, but his face did not change at all.
He Qin pursed his lips and smiled softly, and then slowly savored the taste of the wine.
After completing his last task in Tianjing, He Qin embarked on the journey home.
"Don't worry, tell Liang Shao, I will definitely arrive today. "The world is very small, especially in Tunghai University, and He Qin still has the aura of the protagonist, so on this path to the door of the men's dormitory, He Qin's shoulder collided with Liu Chuanxi's shoulder.
"Damn, CNM, you don't have long eyes...... Liu Chuanxi hung up the phone and scolded viciously, "Yo, isn't this a classmate He Qin, where did you leave your eyes?"
Oh, Liu Chuanxi, He Qin had almost forgotten the contradiction with him, smiled, and patted Liu Chuanxi's shoulder, "Long time no see, classmate Liu Chuanxi." ”
"See your mother's head, dare to hit Lao Tzu, let you have a longer memory today. Liu Chuanxi is very unhappy, he seems to be unlucky recently, he is in a bad mood, and he sees the people who once wanted to clean up, but he is still on the path, without any scruples.
The fist that was swung out was held by He Qin, "Liu Chuanxi, it's not a good thing to be in a bad mood. ”
A punch hit Liu Chuanxi's left cheek, He Qin waved his right hand with a red palm, but he didn't expect this guy's hand to be so strong that he almost didn't catch it.
Taking advantage of Liu Chuanxi's confusion, the darkness took two steps forward, crashed into Liu Chuanxi's arms, and then strangled Liu Chuanxi's neck from the elbow bend, lifted his knees, and crashed into Liu Chuanxi's lower abdomen.
"Ah...... You!" Liu Chuanxi broke free from He Qin's control.
He Qin is not a martial arts master, and he doesn't fight often, so it is not as described in the novel, in a second or two, Liu Chuanxi curls his body and falls, convulsions, but his face is red, as if he is constipated.
He Qin is not a martial arts master, nor does he advocate fair fighting, so he bent down, picked up a brick on the ground, and then waved it in Liu Chuanxi's stunned expression
"Bang. ”
"Poof. ”
The first sound was a brick hitting Liu Chuanxi's face, and the back was the sound of Liu Chuanxi's saliva being beaten.
"You..."
"Bang. The brick smashed on Liu Chuanxi's arm.
"You know, I'm kind, but you're forcing me to be a bandit. The bricks smashed Liu Chuanxi's body.
"Also, is the photo pretty?"
"Tired of what?" the latter heard this, covering the loose and swollen half of his face, and looked at He Qin in dismay.
"I said, "Photos." He Qin threw away the bricks and squatted beside Liu Chuanxi.
"It's you, it's you......" Liu Chuanxi looked at He Qin in horror, his eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it, "It's you, how could it be you, how did you know, how did you know!"
"I know, it's because of what happened in the cafeteria that day, I promise, I won't provoke you again in the future, you don't blow up those photos, okay. Tears and snot flowed out, Liu Chuanxi hugged He Qin's legs and looked at him pitifully.
He Qin stepped back in disgust, crying too miserably, "Don't look like this, the area of your psychological shadow is a little too big!"
Liu Chuanxi's crying became louder, and he wiped the tears and snot on his face with his hand, "I don't want to, but you send me a photo every week, or the same day, at the same time, do you know the feeling of waiting for the execution, I have a nervous breakdown, big brother, that time I beat you, it was all Liang Shao's attention, I am just a pawn, you treat me as a fart." ”
I send it once a week, no wonder when I heard the photo, Liu Chuanxi's whole person collapsed, and a few animals in the dormitory did a lot of things without telling them!
"Who is Liang Shao?"
Liu Chuanxi poured beans on the bamboo tube and explained everything, Liang Shao is called Ren Liang, a junior student of Tunghai University, and his family is a rich man in Jecheng, his identity is not only a student of Tunghai University, but also has many industries including Haoting billiards hall, Haoting Internet café, Haoting bar, etc., which can be called a model of college students' entrepreneurship.
As for why Ren Liang provoked him, Liu Chuanxi didn't know, he ridiculed He Qin was just a casual order from that Liang Shao, Ren Liang's temper was very short-tempered, and he didn't dare to ask.
"Don't worry, no one will send photos in the future, so let's sleep well. He Qin patted Liu Chuanxi on the shoulder, the two did not have a deep hatred, and the lesson he had learned was profound enough.
"Thank you. Liu Chuanxi staggered to his feet, wanting to hold He Qin's hand and be grateful, but He Qin avoided him.
