Wu Khan University Press was interested in "The Four Famous Catchers of Jingshi" and wanted to talk to Zhang Tan about publishing matters in person.

Of course, Zhang Tan had no reason to disagree, and he had long looked forward to the day when the simplified Chinese would be published. It's a good thing that there is a traditional Chinese version on the side of Taiwan, but after all, there is a sense of alienation, and as a mainlander, I am still more accustomed to the simplified version.

Besides, Xianxian Culture has delayed the manuscript fee too much, and more than 30,000 copies have been sold, and the manuscript fee has not been paid. Zhang Tan was quite dissatisfied, but his family was still waiting for his money to open an Internet café.

"Teacher Yu, I'm going to ask for leave, please take three days." In the office, Zhang Tan said.

"What's the matter?"

"Uh, I'm going to Wu Khan."

"To Wu Khan?"

Zhang Tan nodded: "That's right, Wu Khan University Press is interested in the publication of my new work "The Four Famous Catchers of Jingshi", and wants to talk to me about the publication in person." Teacher, you know, this kind of opportunity doesn't come around very often......"

"Okay, the teacher agreed." After Yu Na was slightly shocked, she did not hesitate and immediately agreed, "Such an important opportunity, you really shouldn't miss it, the teacher supports you." Zhang Tan: When are you going to leave? ”

"Tomorrow."

"Then you must be careful on the road, are you going by train?"

"No, by plane."

"Oh, be sure to be safe."

Zhang Tan was also quite surprised that the conversation was so relaxed and pleasant, but since the last time he talked to the principal, the school was really lenient with him.

After taking leave, Zhang Tan simply packed his backpack.

He only planned to stay in Wu Khan for three days, chat with Wu Khan University Press for half a day, and then go to the "Ancient Legends" magazine to visit, and the remaining two days were pure tourism. For three days, the weather was still cold, and there was no need to change clothes at all. So, carry a bag, bring a laptop, and you're good to go.

Toothpaste, toothbrushes, towels, etc., of course, go to the hotel to get them.

He went to the airport at night and bought a plane ticket for the early hours of the morning, just in time for dawn to Wu Khan. Zhang Tan has never taken a plane much, after all, he didn't have much money before, and he took a bullet train at most. Only once or twice, it was a discount on the plane ticket, that I went to Shimbashi Airport and took a plane to go on a business trip.

At present, Xinqiao Airport is still in the government's document planning and has not yet landed.

The current airport of Heqi is the old airport, Luogang Airport. Luogang Airport is not an international airport, can only fly domestic flights, but it seems to have been expanded once in the future, through the national acceptance, you can fly international, when the first round of international routes, Zhang Tan remembers very clearly, is to fly to Seoul, the capital of South Korea.

Why do I remember clearly, because when the international route was determined, it was just in time for the Korean stick to change the Chinese name of the South Korean capital from Seoul to Seoul.

At that time, after Zhang Tan watched the news, he was very unhappy, thinking that the stick was deceiving the teacher and destroying the ancestors, and he didn't even recognize the ancestors, and he was determined to break away from China's influence.

In short, in the waiting hall of the airport, he used a notebook code word until the announcement sounded the boarding prompt, Zhang Tancai carried a simple shoulder bag and lined up to board the plane according to the instructions of the service staff.

……

In the faint twilight, Zhang Tan stepped off the plane.

In the distance, I saw someone holding a sign.

Of course, this is not the person who came to pick him up, and no one picked him up when he came to Wu Khan. Although on the phone, Wang Conglun said that he would send someone to pick up the plane, but it was just a polite word, and Zhang Tan also refused with interest. Anyway, there are taxis at the airport, take a taxi, and you will get to the "Ancient Legends" magazine in one car.

When he arrived downstairs at the magazine, Zhang Tan did not call Wang Conglun in a hurry, but bought a breakfast and strolled around while eating.

Wait until you have eaten and drunk enough before pulling out the phone.

Soon, Wang Conglun personally walked down from the building, a middle-aged man with glasses, his hair was slightly bald, and he was smiling: "You are Zhang Tan, hello Hello, welcome to Wu Khan, welcome to our "Ancient Legends", I am Wang Conglun, we have talked on the phone more than once or twice. ”

Zhang Tan also hurriedly held Wang Conglun's hand: "Editor-in-chief Wang, hello, hello." ”

"Let's go to the editorial office first, the editors in the editorial office want to meet you in person."

"Okay."

After turning around, I arrived at the editorial office of "Martial Arts Edition".

The area of the editorial office is not large, on the contrary, it is a bit cramped and crowded, and the office space of the editors is shabby. After Wang Conglun brought Zhang Tan in, he introduced Zhang Tan one by one.

Li Qiuyu, Dugu Iran, Sudden Ruji, Biwan Pillow, Chu Tianluo, Ren Yuqiao, Mo Shubai, and so on.

This introduction allowed Zhang Tan to know several editors who were often in contact with him, and at the same time shattered his expectations for beautiful editors, yes, it was the female editor whose real name was Xu Dan who had interviewed Zhang Tan.

At the beginning, Zhang Tan wanted the other party to explode the photo, but the other party was reserved and did not explode, which made Zhang Tan regret it.

Now, the regret is gone, it can only be said that it is disappointed.

is just an ordinary older young woman, wearing a pair of glasses, and she is far less sharp than on the Internet. Fortunately, he doesn't look good, but his personality is quite cheerful: "Tan Zhang, you are much more handsome than I imagined." ”

"yes, I thought you would think I was a little worse than you thought."

"How so?"

"Heh, isn't the uninhibited style I created on the Internet that reminds you of Prince Charming or anything like that?"

Bi Wanzhen laughed and said: "I only think of the fake Taoist priest with a smooth tone, that is, the fake Taoist priest who deceived a little monkey to play in "Baolian Lantern". ”

Zhang Tan's face darkened, he didn't expect his image on the Internet to be so unbearable. 1999's "Baolian Lantern" can be called an epic of Chinese animated films, and the fake Taoist priest in it is dubbed by Liang Tian. A classic line is that rap in the form of a rap song.

Walk, swim, I don't worry if I don't learn or know.

The sewing didn't tell the truth, and the fart made his leg cramp.

The tiger has some oil stuck in his mouth, and I eat mixed rice in the southeast and northwest.

He is the best at abduction.

With the huge influence of "Baolian Lantern", this rap is widely known, and Zhang Tan still remembers how this song was rapped.

There was a joke in the editorial office.

At the same time, I also familiarized myself with how the newsroom works and what the editors do. Then he went into the office with Wang Conglun and talked in detail about writing and publishing.

"The response of "The Four Famous Catchers of Jingshi" is much greater than that of "Zhen Kanto", and under the influence of your works and other authors' works, the sales of our magazine have been rising steadily, and now it has exceeded 100,000 copies per month. Zhang Tan, you can be said to be famous in the mainland martial arts novel circle. ”

Zhang Tan raised his eyebrows: "Mutual benefit and reciprocity, I get the manuscript fee, I can get the recognition of readers, and help the "Martial Arts Edition" increase sales, which is very good." ”

"yes, that's good, haha." Wang Conglun smiled and said, "There is nothing to say about the magazine, let's talk about publishing." I know each other because of our business dealings, Li Wei, the deputy director of Wuhan University Press. I recommended "The Four Famous Catchers to Jingshi" to him, and he also read it and said that he liked it very much, so he wanted to talk to you about it. ”

Zhang Tan hurriedly expressed his gratitude: "Thank you Editor-in-Chief Wang for your support." ”

"It's not worth carrying out, if you publish a book and become famous, our "Martial Arts Edition" can also gain fame, not to mention who promotes whom. Of course, at present, I only have a publishing intention with Wu Khan University Press, and "The Four Famous Arresters of Jingshi" has not yet been written, and Li Wei will talk to you personally about the follow-up manuscript. ”

"That's as it should be."

"Okay, I've arranged a meal at noon, let's sit down and have a meal together."
