Chapter 14: The college entrance examination is over
Zhou Mingchun would come to the school to find himself, Li Zhenxuan really didn't expect it. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In his mind, since he had already rejected the warm invitation of the coach of the provincial track and field team, whether it was for the sake of face or something else, he should not come to himself again.
Li Zhenxuan doesn't mind having the opportunity to go to the world arena or even the Olympics in the future to brush up on achievements, prestige, and reverence.
But now is not the time.
Again, for that reason, the management of professional athletes is too strict.
Now once it becomes a professional athlete, I am afraid that it can only walk on the road of professional athletes for a long time, and other ideas must be broken, and even personal freedom will be restricted.
Unless he makes a result, wins a heavyweight Olympic title or breaks a world record, he will be able to gain some freedom.
Therefore, although Zhou Mingchun's love is strong, Li Zhenxuan must also refuse.
The quota of the provincial sports university is very attractive to my mother, and in any case, it is a national university. Li Zhenxuan was able to hold on, but his mother was almost moved by Zhou Mingchun.
Fortunately, Li Zhenxuan's writing of a novel was also exposed.
When I first learned that Li Zhenxuan was writing a novel, my mother was very unhappy.
She thinks that Li Zhenxuan's most important job as a fresh graduate of the college entrance examination this year is to study hard to get into a good university, and she shouldn't get those miscellaneous things. The previous second-level exam can be said to be for extra points in the college entrance examination, and writing a novel is simply not a serious job.
Fortunately, the report of Tianshi Metropolis Daily saved Li Zhenxuan in time.
After all, Tianshi Metropolis Daily is not a third-rate tabloid, and after the newspaper was listed on this day, it set off a lot of waves throughout the province.
Many people who read the newspaper saw a very eye-catching title on the vertical bar on the right side of the front page of the evening newspaper: The 18-year-old teenager's fantasy novel "Zhu Xian" in this province is popular on the Internet, and once published, it immediately grabbed the top spot in sales on both sides of the Taiwan Strait!
For the first time, Zhu Xian stepped out of the Internet and began to exert influence in the real society.
This report had some impact on my mother, and she no longer firmly believed that Li Zhenxuan was not doing his job in writing novels.
Of course, the more important thing is that the persuasion of the uncle and the aunt has an effect.
The uncle was very excited that the old Li family had a 'talent' who could publish novels, and bluntly said that this was the glory of the ancestors.
As for Zhou Mingchun, although his mother and uncle were very excited for a while, the Provincial Sports University is also a university, and professional athletes can be regarded as a relatively glamorous and decent profession.
Li Zhenxuan was easy to say, and finally succeeded in persuading his mother.
However, she also gave Li Zhenxuan an ultimatum, if Li Zhenxuan can take the college entrance examination, then forget it, if he can't pass the exam, he still has to go to the provincial sports university and become a professional athlete.
In any case, one is better than two!
Li Zhenxuan could only agree.
Li Zhenxuan was unwilling, his mother was moved by Li Zhenxuan's words, and Zhou Mingchun had no way to force it.
just left a phone number for Li Zhenxuan and his mother, telling him that if he changed his mind, he could call him at any time. Then he left with a regretful face.
After this report by Tianshi Metropolis Daily, the popularity of Zhuxian suddenly intensified, and in the case of the willingness of both parties, the new contract with Baodao Linbai Publishing House was also quickly negotiated.
The new contract stipulates that starting from the third volume, the traditional Chinese copyright of Zhu Xian will enjoy a manuscript fee of 80 yuan per thousand words, and will enjoy a 12% royalty share. This contract is undoubtedly very sincere, and no matter how much it hurts, it will hurt the interests of the publishing house, and Li Zhenxuan was not insatiable, and simply signed his name on the contract.
At the same time, the simplified Chinese publishing copyright that Li Zhenxuan has been shelving, has finally had a sincere response.
Simplified Chinese publishing is different from traditional publishing, a traditional Chinese book is 60,000 words, while a simplified Chinese book costs 200,000 words, coupled with a series of reasons such as rampant piracy, simplified Chinese copyright is much more difficult to bounce than traditional copyright.
But now that the popularity of Zhuxian has been transmitted from the treasure island to the mainland, there are finally publishers who have put aside their concerns, and after many discussions and communication, Li Zhenxuan finally chose Shanghai Literature and Art Publishing House. On the one hand, it is because they give the highest treatment, a remuneration of 100 yuan per thousand words, plus a floating royalty share. The contract stipulates that if the sales volume of Zhuxian exceeds 50,000 copies, Li Zhenxuan can get 8% of the royalty share, more than 100,000 copies of the royalty 10%, and more than 1 million copies Li Zhenxuan can get 12% of the cap royalty treatment, such treatment Li Zhenxuan is enough to be satisfied.
At the same time, Shanghai Literature and Art Publishing House is a long-established publishing house in China established in 1952, with a distribution network all over the country. At the same time, as a long-established publishing house, Shanghai Literature and Art Publishing House does not publish a lot of books every year, but the books published by this publishing house are often of extremely high quality and beautifully bound. For readers who often buy books, the books published by Shanghai Literature and Art Publishing House are basically synonymous with reliability.
Of course, the result of high quality and beautiful binding is a high selling price.
It is also common sense to exchange high prices for high quality.
This is also one of the reasons why Shanghai Literature and Art Publishing House is willing to give Li Zhenxuan 100 words of remuneration and 12% royalty share for sales of more than one million copies.
Their profit margins are high, and they are not taking the path of small profits and quick turnover, if Li Zhenxuan's Zhuxian can really sell more than one million copies, the publishing house will definitely be able to eat with a mouthful of oil.
Originally, the publishing house also wanted to fool Li Zhenxuan and buy out other copyrights, such as film and television adaptation rights.
Li Zhenxuan is not stupid, he is very aware of how valuable a hot IP is in the future, so he vetoed it and closed the door.
The matter of the simplified publishing rights is settled, Li Zhenxuan has a matter on his mind, packs up his mind, and concentrates on preparing for the upcoming college entrance examination, the last days of high school, just like this, with the ticking second hand, to the end.
At five o'clock in the afternoon of July 8, Li Zhenxuan walked out of the examination room and exhaled deeply.
"High school, it's finally over."
In this college entrance examination, he has full confidence, and most of the questions on the exam papers have basically been pressed by himself, and he has done a good job. If he can't get a high score in this case, then Li Zhenxuan feels that he still has to die headlong.
Not long after, Fan Xiaobo's phone called.
"Brother Xuan, the college entrance examination is over, let's have a drink!" In the last stage of the third year of high school, Fan Xiaobo was forced by his parents to hang his head for a long time, and now that the college entrance examination is over, he is finally liberated, and he is impatient to indulge.
Li Zhenxuan didn't think about it, the six people present were all good friends of Fan Xiaobo at school, this meal was Fan Xiaobo's treat, and it was said that it was a banquet given by his father.
"Come, brothers, let's go."
"The feeling is deep, and there is another one."
"In the future, the brothers won't be able to see each other often, for the sake of our three years of high school, another one."
One or two got drunk, ran into the photo studio to take a few photos, and then ran to the karaoke and sang wildly until the middle of the night.
In the end, I don't know how to separate, and when I woke up the next day, Li Zhenxuan lay silently on the bed for a while before I realized that my high school life was completely over.
After taking a shower and cleaning up, Li Zhenxuan walked into the Internet café and boarded the Internet.
There is a lot of information stored on MSN, and Chikai happily told Li Zhenxuan that after the launch of the third and fourth volumes of Zhuxian, the sales of traditional Chinese have approached one million copies, and in terms of Changjiang Publishing House, Zhuxian Simplified has also sold 300,000 copies since it was listed, and the results are gratifying. Li Zhenxuan estimated that it would not be long before a generous share of funds would be credited to his account.
On the Internet, the number of clicks on several websites of Zhuxian is soaring, and the clicks of the starting point have exceeded 10 million like rockets, becoming the first novel on the starting point to exceed 10 million clicks on the Internet. There are countless posts on the message board, most of them are wishing him a smooth college entrance examination, of course, there are a few unruly wishing him zero eggs in the college entrance examination, Li Zhenxuan picked a familiar one, and replied below 'Diao Min, An dare to bully!' ’
As a result, this post instantly put out the fire, and after a while, it was pushed to the top of the message board, and there were all kinds of strange messages in it.
smiled, Li Zhenxuan logged in to the author's background for the first time these days, and directly came to a willful ten consecutive changes, so that book friends who read books online also shared the joy of the end of their college entrance examination.
On this day, a book friend who was reading a novel on the Internet suddenly saw the content of the explosion, which was really like the New Year.
This kind of thing has never happened in this era of obscurantism, the origin of online novels.
I wandered around the book friend group again, and exploded a large group of 'divers', teasing the already lively book friend group even more, and then dived away decisively.
On July 25, the results of the college entrance examination can be queried.
Li Zhenxuan's dream of being the champion of the college entrance examination failed to come true after all, but he scored 131 points in Chinese, 124 points in mathematics, 120 points in English, and 256 points in literature comprehensive, with a total score of 634 points, which made my mother, who had been quite worried for a while, excited and almost cried with joy.
