Chapter 67: Novel Launches and New Book Ideas
While Li Mo was recuperating at home, his novel "My Alien Boyfriend" was quietly released.
Han Seung-ho and SK Publishing have a good hand in their calculations.
Taking advantage of the huge popularity brought to Li Mo by the hot sales of 'Pink Dream' and the vicious kidnapping incident, although the novel did not sell against the sky, for the market where physical book sales are gradually shrinking, there are 13,000 copies sold in a week, which is enough to satisfy SK Press.
And SK Publishing's competitors were all slandered in their hearts, Han Shenghao was unexpectedly taken advantage of by him.
But fortunately, Li Mo was unable to hold a signing party to expand his influence because of his injury.
SK Press, Office of Associate Editor.
Han Shenghao was talking to Li Mo on the phone.
"Writer Li, the sales of the novel are very good. Earlier we had booked a share of 50,000 copies from the printing house, and it seems that now we have to adjust it to 70,000 copies. ”
"So I'm not a popular writer right now?" Li Mo made a joke.
"Count, but it's best that the next works should have similar popularity, otherwise outsiders will say that you are exhausted."
Han Shenghao kindly reminded Li Mo that too many new writers have made their debut works extremely popular, but they have not continued to do so.
The second book was left unnoticed, and then it was replaced by a new newcomer.
"Well, writing is my hobby, and I don't care about other people's gossip." Li Mo's mentality is very positive, he is originally a street writer, no matter how bad it is, it is just a return to the original form.
"Writer Li is in such a good mood." Han Shenghao praised it, as if he asked very casually, "I don't know if Writer Li has any ideas for a new work." ”
Li Mo smiled playfully, "I have nothing to do at home recently, and I have a good idea, as for how it is, I still have to consider it." ”
"Really? If you can trust me, Writer Li may wish to share it with me, maybe I can provide you with some suggestions? Han Shenghao asked cautiously.
"It's okay, it's just a preliminary idea, there's no need to keep it secret. I'm going to write a story related to the rich second generation, what is the heir to a big consortium and a poor heroine, that's probably it. ”
Han Shenghao paused and said in a calm voice: "The character composition is a bit cheesy, but if the plot is arranged properly, it shouldn't be too bad, I believe in Writer Li's writing." ”
"Hehe, then accept the words of the editor-in-chief of Han."
Hanging up the phone, Li Mo laughed self-deprecatingly, it won't be too bad, that is to say, it is not very good.
It seems that Han Shenghao is not optimistic about such a character composition.
Li Mo looked at the outline of the novel that he had already begun to conceive and shrugged, whocare?
It doesn't matter what editor-in-chief you are, whether you are optimistic or not, Li Mo only writes novels that interest him.
The source of inspiration for the novel still comes from Li Mo's own personal experience during this time.
Whether it is a rich second generation like Jung Yoon-sung with a deep background, or an outlaw like Hong Tianhui, or a snob like Kim Hyun-so.
has personally experienced that some plots that used to only happen in TV series or movies made Li Mo feel more deeply.
Of course, fiction is not as dark as real society.
The main body is still the old-fashioned plot of a rich and handsome man with pig's feet and a poor Cinderella.
How to write brilliantly depends on Li Mo's ability to control the plot, and he is very confident in this regard.
But before that, he had to find someone to gather information.
Zheng Yuncheng, the second generation, is Li Mo's goal.
・・・・・・
"Ah, if you have time, why don't you create a few more wines of the same level as 'Pink Dream', write some novels, and want me to provide you with information?" Zheng Yuncheng couldn't figure out why God favored him so much for a person like Li Mo who didn't do his job, allowing him to have a demonic talent, but he squandered it at will.
"What about you? Why don't you take care of the family business for your father? Li Mo's rebuttal left Zheng Yuncheng speechless.
"I have a special reason." Zheng Yuncheng's family is so big, and he is not the heir, so he naturally pursues the principle of doing less and making fewer mistakes, and not doing well.
"Then my 'pink dream' is enough for me to live a worry-free life for the rest of my life, why should I ask for trouble."
Li Mo's reason was equally strong, and Zheng Yuncheng was speechless.
"OK, you won."
"If there's anything you want to ask, I'll accompany Huili later."
Zheng Yuncheng lifted the cup, took a sip of fragrant coffee, and said impatiently.
"Okay."
Li Mo took out his notebook and voice recorder, and bombarded Zheng Yuncheng with a series of questions that had been prepared early in the morning.
Time passes between a question and an answer.
"Alright, that's it. The novel time doesn't need to be too real, and for the rest, imagine it yourself. ”
Zheng Yuncheng persuaded Li Mo to stop, there are some things that are unsightly in his circle. If Li Mo is allowed to write in the novel, it will not help him, but harm him.
"Okay, that's enough." Li Mo turned off the recorder and sighed as if he had to speak, "Brother Yuncheng, the circle of your second generation is really complicated. ”
Zheng Yuncheng smiled, "Our circle is complicated? Then ask yourself, is your own circle complicated? ”
"It's not the current you, it's that before you came to Korea, you think about it yourself."
Li Mo suddenly understood what Zheng Yuncheng wanted to say, it was not that the circle of the second generation was complicated, but that as long as there were people, no matter what the surface was, you could clearly know what everyone was thinking in their hearts?
Someone may be smiling at you, but chances are they're going to stab you in the back.
"Taught."
"It's a little meaning, it's about the same time, I'll go first." Jung Yun-sung waved his hand indifferently.
He is optimistic about Li Mo's potential and is willing to befriend him, so he naturally hopes that he will get better and better, maybe he may have to rely on him in the future?
Zheng Yuncheng left, leaving Li Mo alone to think about life.
However, he looks a little funny with a plaster cast on one hand and a 'thinker' pose.
The two girls who had just walked into the café couldn't help but laugh when they saw him like this.
The crisp laughter brought Li Mo back to his senses.
"It's you, what a coincidence."
It was none other than Victoria and Krystal.
"yes, how are you hurting? When I saw the news, I was almost terrified, I didn't expect that the security in Seoul would be so bad. ”
Victoria pulled the tsundere Krystal and sat down opposite Li Mo.
"Don't mention it, it was the darkest experience of my life."
"Hehe, then why didn't you, the president, invite a few bodyguards?" Victoria asked curiously.
"Please, there it is!"
Li Mo pointed to his Porsche Cayenne, and Li Zhengyu was sitting in the car waiting for him.
"Local tyrant, treat yourself!"
Victoria was also quite familiar with cars, and recognized the Porsche Cayenne at a glance, knowing that it was worth a lot, and joked at Li Mo.
Krystal on the side didn't care about the cold and arrogant appearance, and squinted his eyes and secretly looked at it, and he was quite envious in his heart. But thinking about my current income, it will be a long time before I can buy such a car.
"Yes, but what's there to eat here? Oh, someone just introduced me to the dessert, it seems that the dessert is very good, what do you want to eat? ”
"Mango pudding!"
Krystal spoke suddenly, causing Li Mo and Victoria to look at her magically.
This Xiaoice Mountain finally spoke.
