The two who reconciled for a while before they walked out of TVB, and at this time, the contestants and viewers who participated in the singing competition had almost come out.

So as soon as Chen Lang came out, he saw a lot of reporters interviewing the contestants, and seemed to be inquiring about his news, "This player, may I ask the little talent Lang Lang has been promoted?" ”

This player was originally happy to be interviewed, but the question was really about Chen Lang, and he was a little angry, but he still kept a smile on his face and said, "Advanced." ”

So what song is Chen Lang singing? Is it good to sing? The reporter continued to pursue Chen Lang's question.

The interviewed contestant's face was slightly blue, "The singing is "Mice Love Rice", and the singing is okay. Chen Lang is out, you go interview him. With that, he pushed through the crowd and walked away quickly.

When the reporter heard that Chen Lang was coming out, he rushed to Chen Lang in a swarm, but fortunately, Chen Lang had already prepared, hugged Tang Xiaomei tightly and stretched out an arm to block the surging crowd, and only after these reporters stopped did they start to be interviewed.

Tang Xiaomei also made up her mind, stood firmly beside Chen Lang, clasped Chen Lang's fingers tightly, and announced her existence openly.

Chen Lang glanced at Tang Xiaomei a little strangely, there was nothing else but firmness, the two looked at each other and smiled, their hands clasped.

"Little genius, what song are you singing? Is it an original song again? ”

"Lang Lang, have you successfully advanced?"

"Chen Lang, are you in love?"

……

Seeing that the reporter in front of him was so noisy, Chen Lang's first reaction was to look for Chen Jian, and he didn't know if this thing was there, but unfortunately he didn't see this slut after looking at it for a long time.

As a result, Chen Lang just wanted to speak, "Let's be quiet, okay, if it's so noisy, Chen Lang doesn't know whose question to answer." Chen Lang saw that it was Tang Xiaomei beside him, swept the hair around his ears, and said softly.

When the reporters saw this little beauty named Tang Peipei, they were all silent. "Okay, is there a reporter from the Oriental Daily? You can ask first, and the rest of you please wait a minute. ”

Tang Xiaomei saw that everyone was quiet, and looked at herself strangely, and she didn't care about these eyes, so she first ordered the reporter of "Oriental Daily".

"Hello Lang Lang, I'm Li Fei, a reporter from Oriental Daily, have you advanced to the semi-finals of the singing competition?" Li Fei looked at the other reporters, and the little sense of superiority on his face couldn't be hidden.

This reporter from "Oriental Daily" looks very familiar, as if he has interviewed himself before.

Looking at this reporter named Li Lei, Chen Lang replied, "Yes, the game just ended, and I luckily became one of the eight players in the first group to advance." ”

"Alright, this reporter from Ming Pao, you can ask the next question." Tang Xiaomei is slim and slim, and she is not timid in front of so many people.

In the end, it is a person who has seen the world with his parents, and he is also used to this kind of focus of attention, and he seems to be down-to-earth and generous, it is hard to imagine what she looks like when she is jealous, women are really changeable.

"I'm a reporter from Ming Pao, may I ask Chen Lang what song you sang in this preliminary competition, is it an original new song?"

"This time I'm singing "Mice Love Rice", not a new song, but I should sing a new song in the next competition."

……

After dealing with these difficult reporters, Chen Lang and Tang Xiaomei took a taxi and left, and it should be almost out of school now, so the two did not go back to school, but went out to the world of two, and by the time Chen Lang got home, it was already more than nine o'clock in the evening.

As soon as Chen Lang got home, he saw Deputy Editor-in-Chief Liu chatting with Chen's father and Mother Chen, since "Ethereal Journey" was serialized and caused a boom in Xiuzhen, the deputy editor-in-chief Liu often called Chen Lang to report the good news.

"Ethereal Journey" has sold so well that it has exceeded 160,000 copies, reaching 161578 copies, which is the highest sales record in Hong Kong in the history of Oriental Daily.

Now the sales have stabilized, maintaining more than 160,000 copies of sales every day, firmly sitting on the top spot of Hong Kong newspaper sales, and has opened a distance from "Ming Pao" and "Sing Tao Daily".

Therefore, the top and bottom of "Oriental Daily" are very excited, and at the same time, they are deeply aware of Chen Lang's role, so they often ask Deputy Editor-in-Chief Liu to call or come to Chen Lang's house as a guest to contact each other's friendship, and be sure to tie Chen Lang and "Oriental Daily" tightly together.

Chen Lang thought that Deputy Editor-in-Chief Liu was here to contact his feelings again this time, so he said hello and sat down, but saw that there were two contracts on the table, did he want to increase his remuneration?

Chen Lang picked up the contract curiously and looked at it, it turned out to be about the publication of the novel "Zhu Xian".

Regarding the publication of "Zhu Xian", in fact, some book fans have long proposed to buy physical books, but several publishing houses in Hong Kong asked Chen Lang to stop serializing Zhu Xian in "Oriental Daily" for the sake of physical book sales, and Chen Lang refused without the slightest consideration when he heard the publisher's request.

With the manuscript fee of "Oriental Daily", the family's financial crisis was solved, and Chen Lang mainly wanted to make a name for himself, and serializing novels in Hong Kong newspapers can be said to be an excellent channel, and Chen Lang's goal was finally achieved.

But the publishing houses were unwilling to give in, so in the end they were all gone, but I didn't expect to see the contract to publish "Zhu Xian" today, and it was actually Oriental Publishing House, a publishing house that I had never heard of before.

"How come this Oriental Publishing House has never heard of it? It won't have anything to do with your Oriental Press Group, right? Chen Lang looked at Deputy Editor-in-Chief Liu with a puzzled expression.

"Xiaoyou is really smart, Oriental Publishing House is indeed a publishing house just established by our Oriental Press Group, and recently because the sales of Oriental Daily are very good and stable, everyone wants to set up their own publishing house like Sing Tao Daily.

Specializing in the printing of political, economic, literary and series of books, but now the other series are not ready, the only certainty is that I want to publish Xiaoyou's novel "Zhu Xian", which is the main reason why I came today. Deputy Editor-in-Chief Liu looked at Chen Lang and explained.

"I see, that means that "Zhu Xian" will become the first book published by your Oriental Publishing House, the first experimental product?" Chen Lang deliberately looked at Deputy Editor-in-Chief Liu suspiciously.

"How can it be a trial product? "Zhu Xian" is a book that we have carefully prepared and launched. Speaking of which, our Oriental Press Group wants to expand its book publishing business so quickly, which is also due to the influence of Xiaoyou's two novels "Zhu Xian" and "Ethereal Journey". Deputy Editor-in-Chief Liu hurriedly explained.

Seeing that Deputy Editor-in-Chief Liu was a little anxious to explain, Chen Lang looked stunned, how could this Deputy Editor-in-Chief Uncle Liu be so honest at such an old age, he couldn't even see that he was joking.

Chen Lang had no choice but to say, "I'm joking, of course I believe in the sincerity of you and your newspaper." And I wanted to introduce me to publishers through you from the beginning.

It's just that I was busy practicing singing later, so I forgot about it. Now that you have your own publishing house, that's the best thing. ”

"Yes, so we came to Xiaoyou as soon as we sorted out the affairs of our publishing house, and even the contract has been drafted, Xiaoyou, take a good look at it, is there anything that needs to be modified or added."

Hearing Chen Lang's words, Deputy Editor-in-Chief Liu was relieved, and he couldn't wait for Chen Lang to sign the contract.

Chen Lang took the contract and looked at it again, of course, mainly to look at the distribution of benefits, as for other aspects, because the cooperation between the two parties was very pleasant before, Chen Lang also believed that the other party would not play any tricks, so he turned a few pages and found a plan for the distribution of benefits.

The contract is written to publish Chen Lang's novel "Zhu Xian", and Chen Lang will be given 8% royalty, plus 7% of the share, which means that Chen Lang can get 15% of the sales profit.

Chen Lang didn't know whether this distribution method was more or less, but Chen Lang believed in the sincerity of the other party, so he just pretended, put down the contract after reading it, and then nodded to his father.

"Actually, I can't see anything, I'm just pretending, I believe in Uncle Liu and Guibao."

Father Chen also smiled when he heard Chen Lang say this, "Of course, we have been together for so long, I still know Lao Liu's character, how could he cheat us, then I will sign." ”

The sister and Mother Chen on the side were also used to this, and they had already met a few times before, so they were neither curious nor excited, and they didn't say anything.

"Of course, of course, my Lao Liu's character is leveraged, so you can rest assured." Deputy Editor-in-Chief Liu also had a clear conscience, so he patted his chest and assured.

After Chen's father finished signing, Deputy Editor-in-Chief Liu left in a hurry, and Chen Lang's family also knew that he was an impatient son, so they didn't say anything to send him away.

When the family returned to the house, Chen Lang thought that his sister was about to take the exam, so he asked, "Eldest sister, you are about to take the exam, how are you preparing?" ”

"Of course no problem, don't look at who your old sister is." My sister looks confident. Seeing the eldest sister like this, Chen Lang knew that there should be no problem, his sister Chen Yun's grades have always been very good, and there should be no problem if she has been working hard recently.

"Then when you're done with the exam, I'll give you a gift." Chen Lang thought that he hadn't bought any gifts for his family yet, so he just took this opportunity to buy something for his family.

Because now Chen's father and Chen's mother can go to work normally, the family's debts have been paid off, and Chen's father and Chen's mother's salary can also meet the normal expenses of the family, so Chen's mother saved all the money earned by Chen Lang.

And because "Ethereal Journey" is coming to an end, "Oriental Daily" remitted all the manuscript fees of "Ethereal Journey" to Chen Lang, and now Chen Lang has a deposit of 340,000 Hong Kong dollars in his account.
