"You don't think I want to confess to you, do you?"

Buckwheat blinked strangely and looked at Zheng Long and said...

"Well... There really is..."

"Hey... Well, you don't make a fuss. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info I'll tell you seriously, I've found a very serious problem..."

Zheng Long looked at her in surprise.

"The publisher who asked you for the manuscript is probably trying to cheat your manuscript."

"Oh? You mean Huaxia People's Publishing House? ”

"Hmm."

"Won't it?"

Zheng Long shouted in surprise:

"Then a well-known publishing house shouldn't engage in these indiscriminate things, right?"

Although this sentence, Zheng Long himself was a little unconfident. In the next life, he has experienced too many deceptions, even how big-name companies may cheat and do things that the world despises.

For example, a well-known Japanese construction company has also done falsification of design data. Another example is a famous pastry manufacturer in China, which actually uses aged raw materials to make moon cakes, which is really dark. Another example is a well-known software company, which recently stole users' data and sold it privately to other companies.

"You listen to my analysis... You see, the other party asked you to finish the manuscript and send it directly for review, which is very risky! It puts you in a dangerous position. You're playing all the cards in your own hand, and the opponent still has countless cards in your hand that you can tackle at any time. For example, what do you do if they say that your manuscript doesn't meet the requirements and can't be published?

"Then find another publishing house!"

Zheng Long replied almost without thinking.

"Hehe, do you think it's that simple,"

Buckwheat smiled:

"You're stupid! Do you think people really don't want your manuscript anymore? In fact, they could have done everything in two weeks, and the name would no longer be yours. ”

"You mean... Plagiarism?! Not really, such a big publishing house..."

Buckwheat shrugged her shoulders and said:

"Believe it or not, I've had several friends who have had this happen anyway. By the time they see their books in the bookstore, it's too late to sue, because the publishing house is a big business, and you really plan to sue them? ”

Zheng Long couldn't help but gasp.

"I can't imagine that this world is so dark."

"So, it's necessary to be guarded...."

Zheng Long nodded and asked Buckwheat what to do.

"I think it's time for me to go home if you give me a part of the manuscript. When I pass by Beijing, I will help you visit the Huaxia People's Publishing House directly. ”

"You... All right... Really big husband? ”

Buckwheat just snorted twice.

"Well, I look like I'll have to ask you."

In an alley next to the Huaxia People's Publishing House.

It's just a road away, but the gap in the environment is huge.

Huaxia People's Publishing House is on the left side of the road, covering the third to fifth floors of the building, although the building was built in the 80s, but for some reason it gives people a sense of simplicity and tranquility; The Jincheng Publishing Co., Ltd., which is across the road, is neatly decorated, and even looks a little resplendent.

Zhao Qingshan, the editor-in-charge of Jincheng Publishing Co., Ltd., was anxiously waiting for Zheng Long's manuscript.

He saw this serialized novel under the banyan tree, and with his years of publishing experience, as long as this novel can be published quickly, coupled with reasonable publicity, it must be a fire!

This kind of fantasy theme, a novel with a youth core, a full plot, plump characters, and tear-jerking, is not impossible to adapt into TV series and even movies and games in the future.

However, he was not sure that he would be able to convince the author to give him the copyright.

Because he is not the editor of the Huaxia People's Publishing House, but the editor of a private publishing company next to him.

Jincheng Publishing Company often buys some book numbers from the Huaxia People's Publishing House to publish its own books.

Because in 2001, many people were still wary of private publishing houses. In particular, the more well-known writers are reluctant to publish their works in private publishing houses unless they have to.

Everyone has a comparison mentality, why can someone of the same level as me publish a beautifully bound novel collection at Huaxia People's Publishing House and Shanghai Literature and Art Publishing House, while I can only publish a book in a small private publishing company that no one has heard of?

The psychology of the author is also the same as that of ordinary people.

Therefore, it is not easy to be an editor in a private publishing house.

After being rejected by the author many times, Zhao Qingshan hated these authors who picked and chose fat and thin, and finally came up with a means of revenge-

If you don't let us publish a book for you, we won't give it to you, but we still have to make your money.

This method is a deception.

Lie to the other party that he is from the Huaxia People's Publishing House. Because of the cooperative relationship, Zhao Qingshan also has a work certificate from the Huaxia People's Publishing House, which is more than enough to bluff these young authors who have little social experience.

Moreover, even if the author comes to the door, when he sees the courage of Jincheng Publishing Company, he will often be frightened, thinking that Jincheng is really a subsidiary of Huaxia People's Publishing House.

After deceiving all the manuscripts, after a week or two, I pretended to be very sincere and told the other party, I'm sorry, your work is slightly flawed, and we think it's a pity, but this time it really can't be published.

As soon as it changed hands, the whole work was changed as it was or slightly changed, replaced by another author, and published as soon as possible.

This trick has been tried and tested.

Because most of these young writers are from second-tier cities, and most of them are in middle and high school, they have little social experience, and they don't know how to protect their legitimate rights and interests. And getting them to pay for the lawsuit is still too difficult for the middle and high school students in 2001.

Zhao Qingshan's eyes once again showed a fierce and cunning light, just waiting for Zheng Long, the little white rabbit, to tie himself up and then completely send it to him...

Thinking that he could make a lot of money with this book, and maybe buy a big gift for his goddess, Zhao Qingshan couldn't be happier.

But on this day, he suddenly felt a slight throbbing in his heart.

He didn't think it was a good sign, but he didn't know what was going on...

Then let's see the move!

Sure enough, soon a phone call came...
