Chapter 0007 Publishing
David left his hometown in a car and returned to his home in the county seat. David took a shower, lay down in bed, and was ready for a good night's sleep, recuperation, and a night of coding on the computer. When night falls, the street lamps glow a dull yellow glow, and men and women sit in the small stalls on the side of the road enjoying themselves, and people shuttle from stall to stall, laughing loudly.
At nine o'clock, David left the house and headed for the Whispers of the Heart Internet café. The Internet café in 03 didn't need any ID card to start, and after paying the money, the network administrator opened a machine for David. David opened the music software first, clicked on a song and listened to it, David is not very good at singing, so he doesn't listen to a lot of songs. David and his wife Xu Jiali went to KTV to sing, mostly his wife Xu Jiali was singing, and David was playing the beat. Once David couldn't stand Xu Jiali's coquettishness, so he sang a song, and next time Xu Jiali would never let David sing again. David also regretted that if he could sing so many songs, he could write songs and sell them, make such a fortune, and become famous by the way. Of course, this was just something that popped into David's mind when he was bored. David is now registering an email address on NetEase, and David is going to code out 3 or 40,000 words first, and find a publishing house to see if he can approve it first. David listened to the music, smelled the smell of sweat, smoke and foot odor, and by the time David coded out 34,000 words, more than 2 hours had passed. David can achieve blind typing, which Davy has honed over the years. Nowadays, people are just beginning to get into contact with computers, and they have to watch the keyboard press out the words one by one when they type. David's hand speed can reach 200 words per minute. surpassed them dozens of times, and the girl who was surfing the Internet next to her saw David's typing speed and was directly blind. David searched for Xiangjiang's publishing house on the Internet, and now Xiangjiang's publishing house began to collect online articles and publish books on a large scale, and soon David found several good publishing houses. David copied and pasted the typed words in NetEase's mailbox and attached his name, contact address, phone number, email address and other content. These publishers are not allowed to submit more than one manuscript, and of course David is ready to cast a wide net and vote for several publishers at the same time.
Otherwise, after the review of the last half a month, a month later, come to one, your work failed to pass, and then go to another publishing house, another half a month, a month, the waiting time is long, and the ending of waiting is not very good, this disappointment is coming in waves, who suffers.
The manuscript was submitted, and the rest of the time was waiting, and David hung up his computer and went out for a late-night snack. Davy, the stall downstairs, ordered an egg fried rice, which was also a treat to eat with mustard. But David remembers that in a few years, it seemed that a commercial building would be built here.
David was ready to go to the Internet café to continue coding words, preparing to code out the remaining 400,000 words. In the next few days, David went to the Internet café at night and went back to sleep during the day, although David wanted to change this state, but David couldn't write a word during the day, and David clearly knew that his nervous excitement was at night. David clicked on his mailbox every day to see if there was a message coming. David is confident in his work. His works are full of novels about hegemony, decisive killing, and harem. Pig's feet traveled to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, defeated the Yellow Turban, subdued the fierce generals, established their own forces, defeated Cao Cao, broke through the Shu Kingdom, defeated the Wu army, and finally became the supreme existence. The storylines weren't new in '15, but in '03 David was a little confident that it was a good novel.
It took David a few days to get the words out, but there was still no information. David and the others were so anxious that they didn't go to the Internet café in a fit of anger. David bought a fishing rod for this purpose to go fishing, David took the fishing rod and rode on the car to go to someone else's fish pond to fish, of course this is sneaky, David made a nest, sat on a stool and began fishing. David waited for a long time and didn't see the fish take the bait, and when he lifted the fishing rod to see that the fish food was gone, how could there be a fish on the bait, David scolded in his heart "with great cunning". David had to tie the bait from the new and start fishing, until noon David caught only two or three small fish, this fish David was embarrassed to take back, David looked at the small fish and said you are lucky, "You were caught by my great good man, if you meet some uncle, you will be finished." David seems to have forgotten that he is also an uncle.
David had been fishing, and when he saw the Internet café David restrain himself from entering, he took a deep breath and turned around to continue his fishing business. The fishing lasted for a week, and David looked at the three melons and two dates in the bucket, and David went home directly, not even wanting fishing tools. David took a shower when he went home, went to the Internet café to turn on the computer, logged in to his mailbox, and saw that there were a total of 3 letters, when David thought that he would not be nervous when he saw the letters, but David overestimated himself, and when he clicked on it, he was still quite nervous.
The sea, hello, welcome to our manuscript, for the manuscript, the editor-in-chief of our agency has been reviewed, passed the review, hope that the sea received the letter as soon as possible, I wish the sea a spring of thought. -- White shark.
When David saw the reply, his heart had already been put down. Although this V publishing house has a bit of a low review standard, isn't it more guaranteed to pass? David clicked on the rest of the letter with a happy mood, and the other C and E publishers all passed the review, and one A publisher failed to pass the review, but this could not affect David's mood. David quickly contacted the three publishers. Wait for a reply from these three publishers. David checked the capabilities of these three publishing houses on the Internet, and found that the strength of C publishing house surpassed that of V publishing house and E publishing house by a large margin, and David increased his reputation in order to let more readers read this book in Hong Kong. As long as the conditions given by C Publishing House are not much worse than the other two, they will sign a contract with V Publishing House to publish traditional Chinese characters, as long as this work can make themselves famous, the conditions will definitely be generous next time. David signed up for an account at the starting point, applied to become a writer, and uploaded two copies of his work for review.
On the way back, David's relaxed and happy expression on his face, compared with the previous few days, was simply heaven and earth. The so-called people are in good spirits when they are happy, and the ancients did not deceive me. David looked at the pedestrians on the side of the road and smiled, has he changed a person?
This time, the three publishing houses replied quickly, and the treatment they gave was about the same, and 6,000 yuan could be given for 100,000 words per episode. David asked, can this manuscript fee be higher? The editor of the publishing house did not directly refuse, but only said that he would discuss with the above, and David also knew that the new author was about the same price, so he didn't say anything more, so he signed a treaty with C Publishing House and prepared to publish. After finalizing the publication, David began to continue to write the following content, because David knew that he was an online writer with no background, only good works, and continuous works were an important guarantee for him to gain money and fame, and David worked harder to write the manuscript. During this time, David learned to smoke, and every time he finished writing a novel, David lit a cigarette for enjoyment.
During this time, David went to Internet cafes several times and passed the documents to the publishing house. David logged on to the starting point's account and saw that the new book had been reviewed and could be published. After reading this information, David made the cover of the book and uploaded two more chapters. David left the Internet café.
On this day, David continued to write at home, and David, who felt that he had no new ideas, lit a cigarette and smoked it beautifully, like a fairy. David, who felt hungry, was ready to cook something to eat by himself, David boiled the water first, then poured the noodles into the pot and boiled them twice, then scooped up the noodles, put them in cold water to cool for a while, scooped them into a bowl, and then poured his leftovers from noon into it, which was absolutely delicious. Eating the noodles I cooked, I felt that it was not spicy enough, so I got some of it from the old godmother, and it was fragrant. David can definitely give his craft a perfect score.
At this time, David received a call from his cousin, saying that after the final exam is over, he will come to play with his classmates for a few days and treat me well. David nodded his head. David's grandparents gave birth to 5 children, David's father is the second, he has an older sister above, 1 younger brother and 2 younger sisters below. My cousin is a child of my second aunt's family, and they have lived together since they were children and have a good relationship. Since she was coming, of course David had to entertain her.
The next day, David got up early and went to the vegetable market to buy lobsters and crabs, and was buying some seasonal vegetables. When David returned home, he happened to see a thick letter in his mailbox, and the address was sent from Xiangjiang. When David returned home and hurriedly opened the letter, he saw that there were 2 sets of books inside, looking at the cover of the beautifully made book with the words "Mixed in the Three Kingdoms as a Warlord", the words written by the sea, looking at the light blue book cover, and smelling the fragrance of ink, Davy's heart swelled up with a feeling that he couldn't speak. This feeling is like excitement, like an affirmation of oneself, an affirmation of the first step to selling success.
When his cousin came, David Davy had goosebumps on his forehead with a smile on his face. He also said, "Brother, we are cousins, you can't do anything beastly." After Davy listened. The veins on her forehead were rising, and her eyes were looking at her with fire. When my cousin saw it, she said to her classmates, "Look, my brother is going to transform into a werewolf." David thought of the publication of his book and said to his cousin: I won't be angry at what you say, unlike you, a little girl who doesn't grow up. After saying that, David went to the kitchen and began to concoct lobster and crab. At dinner, my cousin and her classmate Mu Qingwan ate deliciously, and the aftertaste was endless.
