At noon the next day, when Zhao Yan was inquiring about the development progress of Youjian 2.0 version in the Youjian Qi office area, he suddenly received a call from an unfamiliar number, and after connecting, he heard Nalan Jingxiu's voice, and he didn't know where he got the number from.

On the phone, Nalan Jingxiu said: "I plan to announce to the public that I have defeated you, do you have any opinions?" ”

His voice was as calm as last night, so calm that Zhao Yan couldn't feel disgusted, thinking that he only had one year to live, and thinking of his weird Qiduan Jin, Zhao Yan was silent for a moment and replied: "Yes!" ”

After getting Zhao Yan's affirmative answer, Nalan Jingxiu hung up the call.

After this call, when Zhao Yan returned to the dormitory, he found that Zhang Peng, Xu Ping, and Xie Dengyun were all in the living room, and when they saw him come back, all three of them looked at him, Zhang Peng was the first to get up and pat Zhao Yan's arm, comforting: "It's okay if people are fine!" If you lose, you will lose! It's not a shame to lose to Nalan Jingxiu's Qiduanjin! ”

Xu Ping and Xie Dengyun also came over and said, "Yes, Zhao Yan! Everyone knows that the Nalan family's Qiduanjin is powerful, besides, I heard that Nalan Jingxiu is two years older than you, and he has been cultivating Qiduanjin since he was a child, and it is nothing if you lose to him! ”

"That's it! You have proven your strength by defeating Xu Jianhao, even if you lose to Nalan Jingxiu, no one in this school will dare to laugh at you! Whoever is not convinced, you will defeat him! Ha ha! This sentence was said by Xie Dengyun.

Zhao Yan looked at the expressions of the three of them, smiled indifferently, and said casually while going to his bedroom: "Don't comfort me!" I'm not that vulnerable! For those who practice martial arts, it's normal to win or lose, and it's not like I haven't lost! ”

Zhao Yan really didn't take this matter to heart, firstly, he did not really lose to Nalan Jingxiu, and secondly, he never thought that his kung fu was invincible in the world, if Xu Jianhao didn't take the initiative to provoke him. He won't compete with Xu Jianhao.

However, after the news came out from the martial arts club, when Zhao Yan went to class in the afternoon, he felt the change in the atmosphere around him, and some people looked at him as if they were a little gloating, and several of his classmates who were familiar with him came to comfort him.

For example, Li Yan, Nian Xiaobai, Xing Zheng and others.

Xi Fang at the front table smiled and teased him: "Classmate Zhao Yan! Looks like you're going to have to practice your kung fu again! Hehe! ”

The eldest grandson, Xia Qiu, glanced back at him, and then sent him a text message on his mobile phone: "It's okay to lose!" Write your novel in peace and open your website! It's not good to fight and kill! ”

Receiving this text message from the eldest grandson Xia Qiu, Zhao Yan smiled when he read it, and he agreed with the eldest grandson Xia Qiu's opinion. If he didn't think so, in the last few months of his senior year, he wouldn't tell Fan Long, Ji Yichun, and Lou Wenhao that this society can't rely on fists, in fact, the last few times he has done it with people is because of Emily and Blaitze's two foreign girls, first Jack, followed by Xu Jianhao, Ma Biao, Tan/Zhiguo, and even the short fight with Nalan Jingxiu was caused by those things.

After entering the university. Zhao Yan's whole mind is writing novels and starting a website.

I still think so!

On the side of the Xu family in Shandong, Vice President Xue and Director Gong promised to help deal with it, and on the side of the Martial Arts Club, Zhao Yan had already lost to Nalan Jingxiu by default. In his heart, Zhao Yan also hopes that this matter will end here, and he doesn't want to do it endlessly.

……

After a few days, Zhao Yan's life was very peaceful. Every day he goes to class, writes manuscripts, goes to the company to see, well, every morning he still goes to the mountain behind the school to practice boxing. Sometimes he ponders the seven sections of Nalan Jingxiu, and that night Nalan Jingxiu only used a pair of fleshy palms to cut his sleeves, which made Zhao Yan see another world of martial arts, and he wanted to study it, but he couldn't figure it out for a while.

In order to study Nalan Jingxiu's Qiduanjin, Zhao Yan pulled a wire on the two walls of his bedroom, hung the coat with Nalan Jingxiu's broken sleeves on the wire, and got up every morning, or when he wrote a manuscript at night to the point of irritability, he went over to punch or slap a few times, and he was not sure if he could study it.

On such a peaceful day, one morning a few days later, Zhao Yan suddenly received a call from Xiang Bin, the editor of Kyushu Reading.

Zhao Yan thought that Xiang Bin's call was urging him to hand in the manuscript of the fourth episode, but what Xiang Bin said was: "Ishimi! Have you published "Gun King" and "Shenwu Realm" on that website? If it hasn't been published yet, can you contact the two authors and ask them if they would like to send us about 100,000 words to review the manuscript? I see that those two books have recently been rewarded by a lot of people on your website, and they may have publication value! ”

Zhao Yan was a little surprised, but he was delighted.

"The King of Guns" and "The Realm of Divine Martial Arts" have been ranked second and third on the homepage reward list of the website since the sword qi launched the reward system, second only to his "Rebirth of the Great Sword", and the degree of love among readers is self-evident.

Two days ago, Wang Qin, the editor-in-chief of the website, also mentioned to him that the top ten books on the reward list can try to recommend them to the publishing house! Zhao Yan estimated that with Wang Qin's work attitude, "The King of Guns" and "The Realm of Shenwu" are likely to have been recommended to a certain publishing house.

After ending the call, Zhao Yan immediately called Wang Qin to inquire about the publication of the two books.

On the phone, Wang Qin told him that "The King of Guns" and "The Realm of Shenwu" had been recommended to Fengchen Heroes together with several other books, and the review time was about half a month.

Zhao Yan listened, and told Wang Qin what Xiang Bin had just told him, and asked Wang Qin to submit a copy of the manuscripts of "The King of Guns" and "The Realm of Shenwu" to Kyushu for reading, and at the end of the call, Zhao Yan sent Xiang Bin's phone number to Wang Qin by text message, and asked Wang Qin to contact Xiang Bin directly.

The strength of the Shadow of the Wind and Dust is a lot worse than that of Kyushu Reading, of course, Zhao Yan hopes that the works with sword energy can be read and published in Kyushu, not to mention the profits, the fame obtained will definitely be greater, once it is successful and publicized on the sword spirit, the attraction to those online authors will be greater.

……

The speed of Kyushu Reading, which took the initiative to request the manuscript, was much faster than that of the passive receipt of the Wind and Dust Heroes, and the manuscripts of "The King of Guns" and "The Realm of Shenwu" had just been submitted four days ago, and Zhao Yan heard the good news from Wang Qin - both books had been approved.

Maybe it's because the quality of those two books is really good, maybe it's because these two books have been in the second and third places on the sword qi reward list recently, so that the review editor of Kyushu Reading, when reviewing the manuscript, subconsciously added points to these two books, anyway, they are overdrafted.

This is good news for Zhao Yan, and it is also an encouragement to all the employees up and down with sword energy.

There is a sword qi that has been accepted by Zhao Yan for a short period of time, just because of a reward list, two works have been selected by Kyushu Reading, no matter what, it is a good sign.

Wang Qin, who was about to notify the authors of the two books to sign the contract, asked Zhao Yan: "Mr. Zhao! How much do we take of these two books? You give a standard! ”

"How much do you think is appropriate?" Zhao Yan threw the question back to Wang Qin, because he really didn't know how much to set, and he had no experience in this area.

"15% or 20%! Of course, 30% is fine! Many studios out there take a 30%, or even 50% or more! However, my advice is not to exceed 20% as well! 20%, the author's resistance will be high! It's not good for the reputation of the sword qi that we have just improved! ”

Zhao Yan thought for a while and said, "Then 15%!" It's all this standard in the future! When the contract is signed, you can send an announcement after the author/station, saying that all works recommended and published by us will only charge 15% of the agency fee, and if the author successfully submits his manuscript, we will not charge any fees! Do you think that's okay? ”

Wang Qin smiled and nodded.

So, in the evening of this day, when the lame man who came home from work landed in the back/station of the sword qi author, he saw a text message in the station.

"Hello! Black Dog! I'm a sword content editor - Nana, I have good news for you! Your work "Shenwu Realm" has passed the review of the publishing house, please add my joint signal to negotiate the signing, my joint signal is: nana7374! Please contact me as soon as possible! -- There is a sword qi editorial department. ”

Suddenly received this text message from the station, of course the lame man was very surprised, looking at his expression is a little complicated, he is writing a novel with sword energy, writing "The Realm of Shenwu", it is just his hobby, he never thought that his works could be published, since he was lame, he has given up hope in life.

This can be seen from the fact that he is nearly forty years old and still chooses to live alone.

The idle job arranged for him by the government was very low, so low that he could only sustain his life alone, but now, or recently, with the introduction of the reward system by Youjian Qi, he saw new hope.

In just a short period of time when Jian Qi launched the reward system, the manuscript fee he can share is close to 2,000, which is more than his monthly salary, and now it is ushered in again, and he knows that he has an income of at least tens of thousands of yuan without asking, and his life is going to be changed!

After a moment of distraction, the middle-aged man hurriedly added the link signal in the text message and contacted the editor with sword energy.

Compared with the surprise of the black dog, the author of "The Realm of Divine Martial Arts", Zeng Jin, the author of "The King of Guns", was much calmer when he saw the text messages on the station.

She is the winner of the National Middle School Student Essay Contest, the only candidate with a perfect score in this year's college entrance examination Chinese Studies Examination, and an outstanding student in the 44th writing class of Nanfeng University.

The reason why she serialized "The King of Guns" silently and did not submit it to the publishing house is not because she has no confidence, but because she wants to practice her pen quietly and devote herself to writing a work without media attention.

Now it seems that her pen power is enough, and on the premise that no one knows that this pen name is her Zeng Jin, "The King of Guns" can pass the review of the publishing house, which has already explained the problem.

Therefore, Zeng Jin did not refuse to sign the contract this time, who would think that he could earn an extra manuscript fee? (To be continued......)
