Liu Changtian said some comforting words on the phone. Although Zheng Tian didn't feel good about it when he heard it www.biquge.info but what could he do, he couldn't change all of this anymore. I have already offended Xu Hong, can I invite Xu Hong back now and apologize to others.

"Okay, Lao Liu, then that's it! Anyway, the matter has come to this point, and we can't change anything, I hope everything is as you said, Xu Hong can't find a home, and his works are better not published. ”

Zheng Tian thought about it, and felt that there was nothing he could do now, even if it felt like he was letting Sun Yuanjie play it, but so what. I have already offended Xu Hong. It's useless to try to undo it again.

After calling Liu Changtian, Zheng Tian sat in the office, looking lost. I had no choice but to smoke cigarettes one by one.

At this time, Liu Changtian was also thinking about whether he had done something wrong this time. Shouldn't Xu Hong's works be published?

After listening to Zheng Tian's words just now, he said that he didn't care, but in his heart he cared very much. After all, there aren't many good works. On the surface, he said that there are still good works, and there are good authors. But I also know very well in my heart that encountering a good work is almost like winning the lottery! It's not something you can come across if you want to.

"What's the matter, what can we do, are we both letting Sun Yuanjie's old guy play tricks!" Liu Changtian felt that it was very possible the more he thought about it. After all, everyone has seen Xu Hong's works and feels good, but it is strange that he Sun Yuanjie said that it is not very good.

Liu Changtian is now like Zheng Tian, sitting in the office and smoking cigarettes one by one. Think about what the other person just said.

"Well, it's already like this, and it's impossible to get it back now. But it can continue to prevent Xu Hong from publishing his work. The only way to keep yourself from losing to your opponent is to continue to stop. ”

Liu Changtian suddenly thought of something again, he immediately picked up the phone again and called Zheng Tian again.

Zheng Tian was also thinking about this! Suddenly, the phone rang, and as soon as he answered it, he felt that it was still Liu Changtian calling.

So he said directly: "Lao Liu, what's the matter?" ”

"Lao Zheng, we still have to do something now!" Liu Changtian said on the phone.

"What's the matter!" Zheng Tian asked puzzled.

"Invite Lao Yang of 'Chunmiao Publishing House' to dinner!" Liu Changtian said again.

"Why, what to ask him for, we are not very familiar with it. ”

Liu Changtian and Zheng Tian are good friends, but the two of them and Yang Mingyang, the president of 'Chunmiao Publishing House', can only be regarded as ordinary friends. After all, they are peers, and they know each other, but they are not very good friends at all.

Because the 'Chunmiao Publishing House' mainly publishes some learning materials for elementary school students. For example, there are some children's books related to learning, such as elementary school students' ideological and moral character story paintings, and so on.

Because this one publisher publishes things differently than the other two. Therefore, the relationship between them is not very close.

But this publishing house is a children's publishing house after all. If Xu Hong had taken his works to this publishing house, perhaps it would have been possible to publish them here! After all, Xu Hong's works were so good that any kind of editor would like them when they read them. Even if this publishing house basically doesn't publish children's literature, there is no guarantee that they will want to start this business after seeing Xu Hong's works!

Therefore, now Liu Changtian is thinking about it, and he wants to win over Yang Ming. Otherwise, when Xu Hong brought his work to him, he would immediately like Xu Hong's work as soon as he saw it, and then immediately signed a publishing contract with Xu Hong, then it would be too late.

"Lao Zheng, you don't want to think about it, Xu Hong is also a stubborn guy, and he is still making a bet with me! Even if he hits a wall here with our two publishing houses, then it is still possible for him to get his works to a third publishing house.

Of course, it is very likely that it will be the 'Chunmiao Publishing House'! Now if Xu Hong is allowed to get the work to the 'Chunmiao Publishing House' before us. Then let Yang Ming see it, then he is very likely to sign a contract with Xu Hong immediately! Then when the time comes, we will be passive. I'm going to lose! Because if I lose the bet with Xu Hong, it's not just a matter of 500,000 yuan, if Xu Hong's work is really marketable and becomes a bestseller after publication, then we can lose not only 500,000, but maybe 550 million!"

As soon as he heard Liu Changtian's words, Zheng Tian immediately felt that this matter was really important, and Yang Ming had to be pulled into the water, otherwise, if he got the copyright of Xu Hong's work, then the two publishing houses would be a little passive.

"Well, Lao Liu, what you said makes a lot of sense, let's go to 'Chunmiao Publishing House' immediately. I want to take down Lao Yang quickly. As soon as he heard what Liu Changtian said, Zheng Tian immediately agreed.

In any case, what they can do now is to further prevent Xu Hong from publishing his "Sanmao Wanderings".

After the two discussed, they hung up the phone.

Liu Changtian immediately drove to the 'Chuncao Publishing House' again. Didn't go into the office building at all. just made a phone call to Zheng Tian at the gate, and then asked him to come out and get in the car, and went to the 'Chunmiao Publishing House' together.

After the two arrived there, they came directly to Yang Ming's office.

At that time, Yang Ming was looking at a newly published essay for elementary school students to see what the quality of the essay was.

"Bang bang bang---" Someone knocked on the door.

"Please come in!" Yang Ming thought it was the editor who came to him!

But when the door opened, he saw two old guys standing in front of him.

"Yo! What day is today? Why is a gust of wind blowing the two 'giants' in the children's publishing industry to my 'little temple'!"

Although Yang Ming and Liu Changtian and Zheng Tian are not particularly good friends, Yang Ming is a cheerful old guy. Although he is also in his fifties, he still has some children's tones, known as Yang Wantong.

"Old Yang, we have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace! There is something important to discuss with you!" Liu Changtian looked at Yang Ming, showing a smiling face, and said so.

"Oh, yes! It's a big deal, it can't be that your two publishing houses want to join forces to buy my 'small temple'! If that's the case, needless to say, although my temple is small, I don't plan to sell it yet!"

Recently, Yang Ming has always heard some of his editors say that the other two publishing houses may join forces to buy his publishing house, after all, his publishing house is relatively small, and it only publishes some children's learning books, which seems to be uncompetitive in the market.

"Lao Yang, what are you talking about? Do we have that strength? We came to you to give you something other than important. As soon as he heard Yang Ming's words, Liu Changtian quickly explained.

"Oh, there are other important things, what is that!" Yang Ming looked at Liu Changtian puzzled.

"In this way, I am afraid that this matter cannot be said in one sentence or two. It's almost noon now, so why don't we go to dinner together!

Liu Changtian thought, this matter is a request from others Yang Ming! If he does not invite others to dinner, but only says that he wants others not to publish Xu Hong's works, then I am afraid that people will agree on the surface, but in fact it may be contrary to the yang and the yin!

"This, is this necessary!Otherwise, let's eat in the cafeteria of our publishing house!" Yang Ming didn't know what the two old guys would say, so he didn't think it would be anything important, and he was embarrassed to let the family have a treat!

"Hey, Lao Yang, what you said, haven't we been together for a few days! Finally, we have gotten together, do we have to have a drink!" Liu Changtian looked at Yang Ming, and insisted on inviting him to dinner.

When Yang Ming heard this, he couldn't refuse anymore, so he said: "Okay, since the two of you can afford me Yang Ming, then let's have a drink together!"

As the three of them spoke, they walked out of the office building together and came to Liu Changtian's car. Getting in the car, Liu Changtian drove the car and came to a nearby three-star hotel.

I chose a private room, ordered a few side dishes, asked for two bottles of good wine, and changed three cups, just to drink while eating. Let's start with some things in life.

Liu Changtian saw that the atmosphere was almost over, and began to get down to business.

"Lao Yang, we invited you to dinner because we wanted to tell you something big. "Lao Changtian also sold a pass.

"Oh, what a big deal! It can't be that the Third World War is about to break out!" Yang Ming said as he looked at Liu Changtian in a joking tone.

"Haha, Lao Yang is really good at laughing, if this kind of big thing really breaks out, we don't have to sit here and drink. ”

"What's the matter, does the central government have any new policies for us in the publishing industry? Yang Ming was still thinking about these things. After all, only some policy matters can be said to be big things!

"It's not about that, it's about a new author. Liu Changtian looked at Yang Ming and suddenly said such a sentence.

"What, about a rookie author, that's a big deal. Hearing Liu Changtian's words, Yang Ming couldn't figure it out.

"Old Yang, listen to me. Liu Changtian Next, he told Yang Ming about the publication of Xu Hong's "Sanmao Wanderings" by their two publishing houses.

Yang Ming listened to it and was really a little curious. He was really interested in this Xu Hong. I have never heard of the work of a rookie author that can make these two 'giants' of children's publishing restless.

"What's the matter, Lao Liu, is Xu Hong's work really that good? Yang Ming listened to Liu Changtian's words, and he still didn't believe it.

"It's hard to say whether Mr. Sun is jealous of Xu Hong's good writing, or whether Xu Hong's works do have some problems, and it's hard to draw conclusions now! But no matter what, I'm making a bet with Xu Hong now! If I lose, I'll pay him 500,000 yuan! This 500,000 yuan is not a small amount. Also, we are all characters with status, if we lose to a rookie author, wouldn't it be shameless!"

After listening to Liu Changtian's words, Yang Ming understood what was going on.

"Oh, that's the case! This, it doesn't matter, what you mean is that you want our 'Chunmiao Publishing House' not to publish Xu Hong's "Sanmao Wanderings", is that what you mean? ”

"That's right, Lao Yang, that's what we mean, if you also refuse to publish Xu Hong's "Sanmao Wanderings". Then he will lose to me, and we can win him 500,000 yuan! That's the case, I can't ask you to help in vain, if you don't publish Xu Hong's "Sanmao Wanderings", if I win Xu Hong, then I will give you 100,000 yuan, what do you think? You only need to move your mouth to earn this 100,000 yuan. ”

Liu Changtian also knew that now he had to get money to buy Zheng Tian and Yang Ming. Because you won so much money in your own bets, and it was all won by others for you, can you do it without giving money to others! Even if Zheng Tian is a good friend of Liu Changtian, he will also score 100,000 yuan to others. Not to mention this Yang Ming, he has to pay even more. If you only invite someone to eat one meal, what is it and how much can it cost?

"Lao Liu, what are you polite about? Isn't that just rejecting Xu Hong? It is not very normal for a rookie author to be rejected. ”

Yang Ming hadn't seen Xu Hong's works, so even if he heard Liu Changtian and Zheng Tian say that Xu Hong's works were well written, he didn't feel anything. I just thought, even if I saw Xu Hong's work, it wouldn't be a big deal to reject him.

"Well, that's right! We're all in a partnership now. If I make money, wouldn't it be interesting not to share it with everyone? Lao Zheng and I have promised to give 100,000 yuan, so you don't have to be polite. ”

Seeing that Yang Ming was still embarrassed to ask, Liu Changtian also hurriedly persuaded again.

As soon as he heard Liu Changtian say this, Yang Ming readily agreed. After all, he promised to give Zheng Tian 100,000, so of course he Yang Ming should also share 100,000!

"Haha, that's right! Okay, okay! Then I'm welcome. Yang Ming looked at Liu Changtian and readily agreed to what Liu Changtian said.

"Well, the three of us can work together to control the entire market of the children's publishing industry in Beijing. In the future, who will be able to compete with us? Whether it is other publishing houses or some well-known children's literature authors, they will have to bow down to us. Because, we have monopolized the entire children's literature market!"

Thinking that the three of them could monopolize the children's literature market in the entire capital, Liu Changtian was also very happy, picked up a glass of wine, and smiled at Yang Ming and Zheng Tian: "Come, do it!" (To be continued.) )
