The following text......
……
With Mr. Mao's help, Li Feiteng's efficiency in creating those things in the Ming Dynasty was greatly improved. The school is about to end its summer vacation, and Li Feiteng is now very confident that he will finish writing the Ming Dynasty with Mr. Mao in one summer vacation.
There were already more than 400,000 words of manuscript in hand, and Li Feiteng didn't want to delay the publication of his novel, so he took the manuscript to the Popular Publishing House, ready to discuss with Yan Lao about the Ming Dynasty's serialization in the newspaper.
"If you want to serialize, the sales of the publication may have an impact!" said Yan Lao after thinking for a while, he also had to consider the interests of the publishing house.
"Don't worry about this, I only serialized 200,000 words. Li Feiteng paused for a moment and said: "Actually, I figured out guò serialization to make a name for myself, which is also a kind of hype!"
"Hype?" Yan Lao was stunned when he heard this fresh word, but he immediately understood, and said with a smile: "This word is quite vivid, maybe your hype, the publication sales will be better!"
"Well, I've already thought about it, serialize it in Writer's Digest. Li Feiteng said to Yan Lao with a smile.
As soon as Yan Lao heard it, he understood that this kid wanted him to come forward to talk.
"Okay, anyway, President Tie is also waiting for your new work, I'll help you take it over and show her!" Yan Lao agreed with a smile.
Li Feiteng nodded, and chatted with Yan Lao for a while before leaving a manuscript to say goodbye.
Writers' Digest has been in existence for three years, and the newspaper is entirely in charge of the Writers' Guild, and Tie Ning is the editor-in-chief of Writers' Digest.
However, it is still difficult for Li Feiteng's Ming Dynasty to be serialized in the Writer's Digest, because Li Feiteng is not a member of the Writers' Association now, and the Writer's Digest only publishes the works of the members of the Writers' Association.
Li Feiteng is already famous, not to mention that he is recommended by Yan Lao and Tie Ning, two bigwigs in the literary world, so even if he encounters some obstacles, after a week of negotiations, starting from the new Tuesday in September, "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" will be serialized twice a week.
Li Feiteng, who got the confirmed news, was very happy, because the sales of Writer's Digest in the literature and periodicals category are still good, although they are not as good as some old newspapers and periodicals, but among the new newspapers and periodicals, they definitely have a group of very loyal readers.
The important thing is that the sales of Writer's Digest in first-tier cities are particularly good, with 70,000 or 80,000 readers in Yanjing, and about 150,000 copies per issue plus readers in other cities.
Some people may wonder how it can only sell 150,000 copies, like other daily newspapers that sell millions of copies. In fact, this comparison is very inappropriate, you must know that only literature and academic-related things are published in the writer's digest, and the audience is only literary and artistic youth, so it can be said that as long as Li Feiteng's novels can be loved by this group of people, then the minimum number of copies of his novels will be 100,000 copies for the first printing!
Each printing and publication is 100,000 copies, which is already a world-class print run.
Li Feiteng still doesn't know if his Ming Dynasty will become a masterpiece with a total sales of more than 10 million like the original book in his previous life, and its influence can be expanded to the Chinese circle in Asia and even the world, but he definitely did his best.
The summer vacation in September is finally coming, and "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" finally shows its first face in Writer's Digest.
On this day, the sun was shining in Yanjing City, the summer breeze was stirring the birch trees beside the street, people were wearing cool shirts and shorts, riding Jiangdu brand big black bar bicycles, and the rich and noble people drove cars, but they were full of yellow bread-type taxis.
This is the unique "noodle" of Yanjing in the 90s, and people call it "yellow worm".
At this time, Li Feiteng was driving a Buick on the street, and he looked at the "yellow worms" scurrying behind him, and he had a sense of passing through time and space.
"In less than a year, these yellow worms will be eliminated!" Li Feiteng muttered, he saw the newsstand on the side of the street, and quickly stopped slowly.
"Boss, here's a writer's digest!" Li Feiteng got out of the car and bought a newspaper, and he leaned over the car to look through it.
Those events in the Ming Dynasty were serialized for the first time, so the newspaper made a photo of Li Feiteng, a brief introduction to the writer, a brief introduction to the Ming Dynasty and a preface to the author, but the text only had two chapters.
Li Feiteng glanced at it roughly, and then he took it and sat in the car, today is a rest day for writing, but Li Feiteng is going to go to a few computer bars to take a look at the new store recently opened by his cousin and Gu Jun and the store designer will be repaired.
Of course, he just took a "private visit to micro-service" by the way.
"Boss, bring me a copy of Writer's Digest!" A girl came to the newsstand when Li Feiteng had just left, she glanced back at the Buick, and always felt that when she looked at it from a distance just now, she seemed to think that this young man was a little familiar.
This girl's name is Zhu Lingrui, a sophomore in the Department of Literature of Yan University, she loves literature very much, like writers' digests, meanings, and readers, she will not miss an issue.
"Let's discuss Lu Xun's novels again......" Zhu Lingrui roughly flipped through it, she directly ignored the version of the academic discussion, and looked at the literary works of some famous artists.
Zhu Lingrui walked cautiously while reading the writer's digest in her hand, and when she was about to get home, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she exclaimed in surprise: "Li Feiteng has written a new book, and it is actually serialized in the writer's digest!"
"What about the Ming Dynasty?" Zhu Lingrui looked at the title of the book, her brows furrowed, and she said in her heart, how could he write a history book, it was too boring, could it be said that male writers are so fascinated by history?
"Huh!" Zhu Lingrui exclaimed in surprise, her eyes lit up, her lips moved, and she couldn't wait to read the following-

……
"Too, it's so good-looking!" Zhu Lingrui finished reading the first two chapters with relish, she took a deep breath and said with a smile: "I'll just say, Li Feiteng's history books can still be written well!"
"Hurry up and go home and tell them, hehe! I must be the first person in the class to know that Li Feiteng has written a new book!"
At this time, Li Feiteng had already driven to the vicinity of Chaoyang Workers' Stadium, and his 16th new computer bar was opened on the street next to the Workers' Stadium.
With 350 computers on three floors, this computer bar is arguably the largest in the Internet Café Alliance.
After listening to Gu Jun's description, Li Feiteng felt that this shop had development potential, and signed a ten-year lease, and if there was no breach of contract within these ten years, the contract must be renewed for ten years.
It can be said that this shop pù is a lease of up to 20 years, and the rent is also quite expensive, although the business is not good now, but Gu Jun has calculated that he will still be able to return to the capital after half a year, so in Li Feiteng's eyes, this is the most successful start of his company's investment store pù.
Li Feiteng chose to come to this store first, not only because of the huge investment, but more importantly, there was a criminal incident of Yan zhòng fighting and slashing at the No. 16 bar last week, several computers were smashed, and several minor students were seriously admitted to the hospital.
Although Li Feiteng's company is still the injured party, there must be a breach of responsibility, Li Feiteng asked a friend to suppress the matter and did not go to the newspaper, but Li Feiteng felt that this matter was still not over, and he came this time to consider whether to equip the store with security.
"Hey, why hasn't a harmonious society come yet!" Li Feiteng walked out of the computer bar with a sad face, he understood that this place was definitely a place to hide dirt and dirt!
As a 38-year-old man, Li Feiteng is well-informed, he just walked into the computer bar and turned the entire third floor, and he counted at least 20 or more gangsters.
I have to admit that in Yanjing in the 90s, except for the very good security within the Third Ring Road, the security in other urban areas is really not good, especially Chaoyang, Li Feiteng encountered the Black Society in 2012 in later generations.
The capital is like this, how can other provinces and cities be better?
After Li Feiteng got in the car, he simply didn't go to other stores, and directly called Sun Zhengguo, Gu Jun, cousin, Ying Tiancheng, Liu Weimin and other shareholders and senior management of the company, and asked them to go to the Yanjing Hotel for dinner and a meeting at 7 o'clock in the evening.
The computer bar is now as chaotic as the game hall, and the Internet café in the future will be similar, slashing people because they are playing games, robbing because they don't have money to go online, and causing group fights in the real world because of the battles in the game...... One after another Internet café crimes flashed before Li Feiteng's eyes, he couldn't completely put an end to this kind of thing, but he could sue his own Internet café alliance for not happening, or even not happening such criminal cases.
"I'm saying so much, it's just one sentence, the company invests in the establishment of a security department, or unites some security companies to assign two to four security guards to computer bars in some chaotic places!" Li Feiteng told the shareholders and several senior management in the box of the hotel what he thought, and his tone was non-negotiable and commanding.
"I agree, in the past six months, there have been three criminal cases in the computer bar under our company, a robbery, a brawl, a theft, according to the current company's development plan, next year in Jiangdu and Shenchuan two cities to open 25 new computers, if there is no security, I am afraid that every month to deal with such a problem!" Ying Tiancheng nodded first in agreement.
Sun Zhengguo, Gu Jun and Li Xingwang are shareholders, but the three of them didn't even speak, and nodded directly to Li Feiteng, saying that they had no opinion.
As for the others, they don't even have shares, but just the subordinates around the high-level, so naturally there is no objection.
"Tiancheng, you first summarize the finances of the past few months!" Li Feiteng nodded, and motioned to Ying Tiancheng with his eyes to start speaking.
"In August, the company spent 3.2 million to open a new store......"
Ying Tiancheng took the financial statements and work reports and began to tell in detail, Li Feiteng had long known the company's financial situation, and he just told Sun Zhengguo, Gu Jun and other shareholders to listen.
"In other words, at present, the company's monthly liquidity is about 4 million, and 90% of the funds are used to expand new stores?" The plan to open a store can't stop, Tiancheng, Lao Sun, go back to the bank, borrow 10 million funds to invest in our own security company, openly recruit veterans, according to the rank and rank of the rank, it is best to spend some money to recruit special forces to train security guards, we do not require training to the level of bodyguards, but it must be several times stronger than ordinary security guards!"
"Okay, my buddy's younger brother is the regiment commander in the Yanjing Military Region, and I will ask him to introduce a group of veterans first. Ying Tiancheng hurriedly said.
Li Feiteng glanced at Ying Tiancheng with satisfaction, he admired Ying Tiancheng's network in Yanjing, it can be said that whether the Internet Café Alliance can become bigger and successful in the future, he and Ying Tiancheng have the greatest credit, and Sun Zhengmin, Gu Jun, and cousin are doing hard work.
Regardless of merit and hard work, Li Feiteng will not treat anyone badly.
Thinking of this, Li Feiteng looked at Sun Zhengguo and Gu Jun, and he said: "Old Sun, tomorrow you go to purchase four business cars for the company, the price is about 300,000, the company is bigger, you can't let you bosses have no transportation!"
"Okay, I'll go tomorrow!" Sun Zhengguo nodded excitedly, he wanted to ask Li Feiteng for dividends in the past two months, but when he thought that he had invested 10% of the shares from 100,000 yuan, and now although the shares have dropped to 6%, the value has reached about 3.7 million, and he still makes money with rocket-like appreciation every month, he thinks about it, and he is really unwilling to pay dividends.
But the company is different from the car, he doesn't have to pay a penny to have an exclusive car, and then he will be shouted "Mr. Sun" by others when he goes out, and his face is also very bright!
"Feiteng, I also have a car, right?" asked Li Xingwang with an expectant expression.
Li Feiteng and Ying Tiancheng looked at each other and smiled, and he quipped: "Of course, Mr. Li!"
