Chapter 41 Piracy
After the English class, the two novels were taken away by Ye Lan and taken to the office, Wang Wenbin's anger was directly sprinkled on the boy who borrowed the first volume of Xiantu from him to read, if it weren't for Ye Lan catching him, Wang Wenbin would not have been affected, but now it's good, just read the wonderful, the book was taken away, and looking at Ye Lan like that, it is estimated that he will not be able to get it back for a while!
Wang Wenbin was not willing to be confiscated like this, so he had an idea as soon as he thought about it, found Su Yang, who was standing on the side of the corridor looking at the direction of the playground, leaned over to him, and said, "Did you say that Mr. Ye ate gunpowder today?" Why is the anger so big? ”
Su Yang heard this: "The final exam is coming soon, and it will be less than a week, and the big guys are basically nervously reviewing, but you are reading extracurricular books at this moment, aren't you deliberately trying to make the teacher angry?" Originally, you said that you wouldn't read it, and Mr. Ye's temper wouldn't really confiscate things, but it turned out that you were good, and you also gave her a sentence, so it would be strange not to accept your book! ”
Wang Wenbin also heard this reason, but he was really a little annoyed at the time, because he hadn't seen Ye Lan say anything when he read the novel before, it was all because the boy who borrowed the book to read it was involved, Wang Wenbin thought about it and said, "Su Yang, why don't you help me go and talk to Teacher Ye?" Let her give me back the book, you will be the best in the class! ”
"Don't even think about it, it's okay to accept it, to be honest, you should really look at the review materials, even if you are studying how to cheat in the exam, it is better than not putting your mind into it now, so I won't touch this mold!" Suyang Road.
Wang Wenbin suddenly shrugged his face, leaned in front of Su Yang and said, "Is it a brother, just help me this time!" ”
"Impossible, these days you can review with peace of mind, even if you don't want to review, you still sit in the classroom honestly, you have to be considerate of Teacher Ye, if the final grades of the students in the third class are not satisfactory, it is very stressful for a teacher like her who is just qualified to be the head teacher! Under normal circumstances, Teacher Ye will not get angry in class, but now it is the end of the semester, and it will be the high school entrance examination in half a year, so it is necessary to be appropriately restrained! Su Yang said.
Wang Wenbin knew that he was hopeless when he heard this, so he didn't say anything, not far away, Ye Lan came over and called out a boy in the classroom, and then said to Wang Wenbin who was standing outside: "Come to the office!" ”
"Oh!"
Everyone will change a little bit over time, Ye Lan in Su Yang's memory has always been a very good talker, and he has never even had a strict side to the students, and although this makes the classmates in the class like this class teacher very much, the school leaders think that Ye Lan is not qualified for this position, and Ye Lan in this life is already slightly different from what he remembers, of course, Su Yang does not think that Ye Lan's change will be because of himself, he does not have so much influence, at most it just makes Ye Lan less troubled!
The class bell rang, but Wang Wenbin, who came back from the office, said to Su Yang, who entered the classroom: "Teacher Ye asked you to go to the office, after class!" ”
"Why?" Su Yang was puzzled.
Wang Wenbin was a little hesitant, and another boy who came with him said, "Teacher Ye knows that you gave the book to Wang Wenbin!" ”
"I'm Cao? Okay, you, can you sell me too? Su Yang was speechless, but he was helpless, and said, "I'm afraid of you!" ”
Su Yang could almost foresee what kind of expression Ye Lan would have, and he could roughly expect what she would say, in fact, Wang Wenbin was not wrong, this book was indeed given to him by Su Yang, but if you really want to study it carefully, Wang Wenbin had already asked Su Yang in advance, but he didn't expect it to be such a result.
After a class, Su Yang went to the office, at this time there was only Ye Lan in the office, there were two Xiantu novels in front of her, one of which turned a few pages, Su Yang was a little puzzled when he saw this, could it be that Teacher Ye would also read it again? That should be unlikely!
"Teacher Ye, you call me?" Su Yang entered the office, and his expression was as innocent as he was for no reason.
Hearing this, Ye Lan raised his head and pointed to the two books on the table, "Wang Wenbin said that these two books were taken from you?" ”
"Uh, yes!" Su Yang nodded honestly, there was no need to argue.
Ye Lan said: "Su Yang, it's just a matter of reading these books, the teacher believes that you have self-control, but do you know what time it is?" The final exam is coming up in a few days, and you still bring these books to school, are you usually too dependent on you and don't take the teacher seriously? ”
"Teacher Ye, this book is indeed given to Wang Wenbin by me, but it was his own decision to bring it to the school, and I also told him, but he didn't want to listen to it, what can I do!" Su Yang said helplessly.
Ye Lan heard this: "Su Yang, I know that you are usually better than Wang Wenbin, I hope you can persuade him, how can he always do this!" ”
"Well, I will, but you don't have to mind too much, Mr. Ye, Wang Wenbin may be a little impetuous, but he is not a bad person, I will try my best to persuade him!" Su Yang glanced at the book on the table, "Teacher Ye, this book?" ”
Originally, Su Yang really didn't plan to go back to the book, but when he saw it now, he mentioned it in passing.
Ye Lan heard this: "The book will be put here for the time being, and then let Wang Wenbin take it back after the end of the term, by the way, Su Yang, the teacher knows that your grades in all subjects are very good, but you can't relax, just take a proper look at this kind of book, don't be too addicted to it!" ”
"Well, I know, Mr. Ye, don't worry, I believe that the performance in the final exam will be better than the last midterm exam!" Su Yang chuckled.
Since the midterm exam, Su Yang found that the rest of the courses except for the three main courses were slightly insufficient, so he spent some energy to make up for a few homework, with his current learning attitude, once he put his mind into progress, the results are also very significant, so Su Yang believes that this final exam will only be better than before in the performance of various subjects.
When school was out in the afternoon, Su Yang met Xiao Ling, this girl has not fought with Su Yang since the last midterm exam, only heard Tang Yue talk about it, Xiao Ling is working harder than usual, maybe it is really as she said, she was stimulated by Su Yang's results, but I don't know if she has really improved during this time!
"Xiao Ling, why don't you say hello when you see me? That's not your style! Su Yang took the initiative to step forward.
Xiao Ling turned his head, pursed his lips, and said, "I'm still in a hurry to go home to review my homework!" ”
"Suddenly so serious? It's a bit hard to get used to! Su Yang chuckled.
"You have to be serious, you don't know that my original score has always been higher than Zhou Qing's, but she was better than me in the last midterm exam, and you, a monster who suddenly appeared, are so many points higher than me in every subject, if you don't work harder, you will be left behind!" Xiao Ling pursed her lips and said, "I told Yueyue that I would be admitted to No. 1 Middle School!" ”
Su Yang nodded when he heard this, "Well, then you must come on, I believe you will succeed, I hope to see you in No. 1 Middle School at that time, otherwise I will be very disappointed!" ”
"Huh? Su Yang, why did you suddenly change sex? You can't like me, right? Xiao Ling leaned closer and said, a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Su Yang chuckled and said: "Yes, I like you, if I go to No. 1 Middle School and no one often talks to me, how lonely it is!" ”
"Cut, the ghost will believe you, I think about our Yueyue all day long, and I went to Yueyue's house last time, and I am not afraid of being heard by Yueyue when you say this kind of thing!" Xiao Ling said.
"I've heard you!"
Tang Yue walked up from behind, Xiao Ling couldn't help but stick out his tongue, and said, "Yueyue, don't believe his nonsense, I won't like him anyway!" ”
"Ahem, that... Like is not just a meaning, I like Xiao Ling is the kind of love between friends! ”
Su Yang was joking, but when Tang Yue heard it, he subconsciously explained, and then he heard Xiao Ling say: "Wow, Su Yang, you are too uninteresting, I just said that I like it, as soon as Yueyue comes, you will change your hexagram, what a hypocrisy!" ”
"Some people may be duplicitous?" Tang Yue glanced at Su Yang, and his words were playful.
"Ha, the weather is good today, I'm going home to review, so I'll go first!" Su Yang waved his hand, turned around and walked forward, now Tang Yue is not as indifferent as when he first met, staying with Xiao Ling, Su Yang can't resist it, so it's wiser to flash people.
……
Since his rebirth, Su Yang has met many people who were not familiar with him in his previous life, and has also made some new friends, except for Wang Wenbin, an old friend who has always been a good buddy, Xiao Ling and Zhou Qing are better, and the students in the third class are slightly rusty in comparison, not that Su Yang himself alienates them, but because he usually leaves the impression of a good student on the classmates, many students face Su Yang, and even speak differently from others, there is always some sense of distance, there are gains and losses, Su Yang can only try to integrate himself into it, after all, there is only half a year left, and after half a year, everyone will go their separate ways, and I don't know where we will see each other later, when it will be!
The tense review stage passed quietly, and the final exam came in the anticipation and apprehension of many students, and the day before the final exam, Su Yang learned a not-so-good news from the publishing house, Xiantu's pirated books are increasing, and the price is more than twice as cheap as the genuine books, only five yuan a copy!
Su Yang had already expected that piracy would inevitably appear, but when he really encountered this situation, he was still a little annoyed, piracy was rampant and would inevitably affect the sales of genuine copies, after all, it occupied many advantages in price, and people who read novels often didn't care too much about whether there were a few typos, or how accurate the typesetting was.
Now the publishing house is defending the copyright and starting to fight piracy, and after a phone call, Su Yang had his own idea, he called Lao Chen, and said: "Uncle Chen, I think it is possible to release a relatively cheap version of the book, remove the illustrations of the book, reduce some costs, add some illustrations to the original distribution, and I can provide the original manuscript to the illustrator, which is more effective than blindly fighting piracy." And from another point of view, the emergence of piracy is also an indirect increase in the popularity of Xiantu, I believe that readers who really love Xiantu will pay more money to buy the genuine version, and the release of two versions also has a choice! ”
"I'm also thinking about this method, and I'm about to ask for your opinion, since you said so, I'm going to start preparing another version, and if you calculate the cost, the price will be set at ten yuan, what do you think?" Old Chen Dao.
Su Yangdao said on the phone: "Yes, in addition, there are many readers who do not have the awareness of genuine piracy when they buy books, so when printing, you can appropriately add a small paragraph of genuine authorization at the end of the chapter, pirated books are produced in batches at low cost, so it is impossible to do a very detailed inspection, and this can also allow some readers who read pirated copies to flow to genuine channels!" ”
"It seems that you are quite thoughtful, but I'm afraid that this was taken into account when the price was set at the beginning, right?" Old Chen Dao.
Su Yang smiled, did not deny it, and said: "I have a final exam here, and it will be more troublesome for Uncle Chen to deal with the problem of piracy!" ”
"No problem, you can go to school in peace, and try to write the third book as quickly as possible!" Old Chen Dao.
"Yes!"
