After writing the first chapter of Suzumiya Haruhi, Ye Su suddenly found that it was not as easy as he imagined to publish novels to earn money to support his family.
Not to mention whether the novel can be published, if it can really be published, how much time will it take to revis, rectify, typeset, illustrate, apply for a book number, printing, and publicity?
In my previous life, I heard that there are two ways to pay for publishing novels, one is royalties and the other is buyout.
The former is published in simplified Chinese and receives royalties, that is, commissions, ranging from 6% to 15%.
The royalty is how much money you can get for how many copies you sell, but there is a guarantee for this, that is, the first printing, which usually has 10,000 copies, and a minimum of 6,000 copies.
The latter is a traditional Chinese publishing, which is a buyout, and all the income after the author's publication is directly bought out, and it will pay between 50 yuan and 1,000 yuan per thousand words.
Ye Su is not very clear about the publication of light novels in Japan, and the time it takes, but most of them are royalty.
So how many copies are printed for the first time is the first money that Ye Su can get.
From the time it is written, to the time after submission, after the review is completed, and it is qualified to be published, Ye Su does not have an accurate concept, but it will definitely not be soon. Whether it can be done before the start of school is a question.
So the question is, where to get the living expenses during this period?
In the end, there is only one way.
Work.
Part-time workers in Japan can still earn money, even if they are students.
There are two types of pay for part-time jobs, one is hourly wage, which is calculated by the hour, and the longer the hour, the more money you make.
The second type is a part-time job with a one-time payment. The former is more prevalent than this.
When Tsuchima buried that Ye Su was going to work, he showed a surprised expression: "Is Brother Ye Su going to work?" β
"Yes. If this continues, the living expenses for the rest will not be enough, so a part-time job is a must. Ye Su said.
"I still have some money." Tsuchima took out his wallet, which contained five 10,000 yen bills, and generously took them out, saying, "Brother, take it and spend it!" β
Ye Su shook his head: "You can buy these things by yourself, it's not hypocritical, even if you use your money, there will always be a time when it will run out, before that, it is still necessary to have a part-time job, it is very important to have a stable source of life, and when my novel is published, I can get rid of the status quo of part-time work." β
"In this way, he really deserves to be a brother." Tsuchima was very impressed when she listened to the previous words, and the publication of the novel in the back suddenly made her speechless, and after hesitating, she opened her mouth and asked, "What kind of work is my brother going to do?" β
"I don't have any special skills, and I can only work at convenience stores, snack stores, or KFC, McDonald's, etc." Ye Su smiled and said.
"Huh? My brother has a specialty.,Didn't you play the guitar and songs very well before? Tsuchima said.
"What does that count? Do you have anything to build on? Ye Su asked.
"En......" Tsuchima thought for a moment and said, "Brother can go to be a guitar teacher?" Or a guitarist, or ...... Professional tuner? β
"What you said always feels a little unreliable." Ye Su opened his mouth and said.
"It's also ......" Tsuchima smiled and asked again, "Does my brother have any other specialties?" β
"Specialty, to be exact, it's not nothing. However, it is still difficult to find a job specialty, such as piano, painting, singing, ......" Ye Su said a lot in one breath.
Tsuchima was a little surprised, she really didn't expect that her brother would have so many things. Thinking about it again, it is impossible for these things to be born like my brother, but I am also relieved. However, as my brother said, these skills are the ability to find a job.
"Anyway, we'll just go out and find out." Ye Su also had a good idea, and he was not too anxious, and said with a slight smile.
For Ye Su, if there is no way to find an interesting and suitable job, then it is better to go to the boring job of a salesperson.
Work is inherently boring. It's ridiculous to ask for too much.
The two went out into the street together and began to look for work.
The journey to find a job is not smooth, there is no precise goal, no introduction, and trying to find the right job is undoubtedly like looking for a needle in the bottom of the sea.
After about half an hour, she pointed to a coffee shop on the side of the road and said, "Brother, there's a part-time job of recruiting people who are good at guitar playing." β
"Really?" Ye Suleng paused, looked over, and suddenly saw the guitar playing recruitment announcement not far away.
It's a coffee shop called 'Blue Boiling Point', which seems to be a more appropriate name for a bar than a coffee shop......
Ye Su opened his mouth and said, "Then let's go over and have a look." β
The dΓ©cor of the coffee shop is no different from that of a regular coffee shop, except that it is slightly larger.
Soon a waiter came to greet the two and said, "Two of you?" Please come over here. β
"No, I'm here to apply." Ye Su waved his hand and said.
The waiter was stunned for a moment and said, "We didn't apply for a waiter here......"
"No, it's a guitarist." Ye Su opened his mouth and said.
"Guitarist?" The waiter was stunned for a moment, and looked at Ye Su with suspicious eyes: "You? β
"Yes." Ye Su nodded.
"I'm sorry, but the guitarists we recruit are probably going to be very demanding on the level of guitarists. I'm afraid you're not suitable. The waiter spoke.
"Brother Ye Su is very powerful." Tsuchima said as he buried next to him.
"But it's not up to me to decide this, so ...... You can talk to your manager. The waiter said.
The waiter with the blue boiling point is a mature woman in an OL costume, with a superior appearance, and a beautiful mole at the corner of her mouth, which looks a little charming.
"Hello, I'm the manager and store manager of Blue Boiling Point, Yuriko Uejima. You're here to apply for a guitarist job? Yuriko Ueshima asked with a smile, although polite, but she sat on the sofa and didn't even stand up.
"Yes." Ye Su didn't care, nodded and said.
"Well...... Our demand for guitarists is still very demanding, not only need to know how to play and sing, but also know how to fingerstyle, in addition, also need a certain level, forgive me, how many years of playing experience do you have? Have you ever held any small concerts? Or livehouse or something? Yuriko Ueshima asked a lot of questions in one breath.
