Asander Printing Works, workshop No. 6.

The roaring sound of machines kept coming, and the workers were busy sticking to their posts.

While the workers are already picking up speed, the roaring machines are overloaded. However, the fat black man with the helmet kept shouting: "Hurry up, the boss has urged me several times, and this batch of novels is the hottest at the moment." We had to speed up and the overtime pay could be doubled. ”

Roddy kept shouting and walking around the workshop. His brows furrowed, and his eyes swept around, for fear that some of the non-long-eyed guys were lazy.

Spit!

Roddy spat hard, he hadn't slept in more than twenty hours. The workers were still in shifts, but he had to stay in the workshop.

"Damn Link." Luo Di couldn't help but complain: "If you don't go to make your American drama, what kind of novel do you have to write?" It's just that you write novels, and you write so red, this is a sincere way not to let me sleep, right? ”

Roddy sighed, the owner of this printing house was a notoriously miserly. But this time, the other party began to double the overtime pay for the first time, which is like an iron rooster losing its hair.

"Grandma, that miser must have made a lot of money, otherwise how could he be willing to give workers a rise in overtime pay?"

As soon as he thought of this, Roddy couldn't help but start to get angry. He prayed to God more than once to let the printing house go out of business. However, he feared that he would lose his job.

Such a tangled mood made Luo Di uncomfortable.

"How much money does that miser make? Profits in the printing industry are so low. How many copies of this "Twilight Szen" would have to be printed to make that miser happy like that? ”

Roddy casually picked up a copy of "Twilight" that had not yet been sealed, and it was this damn novel that kept him awake all day.

Then. The phone in his pocket rang, and Roddy took it out to see that it was the miser calling. He pursed his lips, but hurriedly connected.

"Roddy, what's going on at the printing shop? You have to show me, I finally got such a big order, if you mess up me, Lao Tzu will kill your whole family. ”

There was the anxious roar of a miser on the phone. Roddy frowned in disgust, hurriedly made some reassurances, and then hung up the phone.

The miser on the other end had just finished the call. He hurried back to the office, and when he saw the young man sitting on the sofa, old Tom changed into a pleasant face.

"Good son, you've done Daddy a great favor this time."

Old Tom had an almost flattering look. Looking at his son.

And the little Tom sitting on the sofa in a straight suit looked expressionless. Little Tom doesn't really have much affection for the father in front of him. He was raised by his mother alone since he was a child, and he couldn't afford to have a trace of family affection for this notoriously miserly father.

"I've already given you the list, don't bother my mother in the future, if I know that you appear at my house again, you know the consequences."

With that, little Tom got up and walked away.

Old Tom's face crossed a hint of loneliness. He knew that his son was already promising, and he was now the president of a publishing house under the CAA Media Group's subsidiary, Fahrenheit Media.

If you say what Fahrenheit Media is. Old Tom hadn't actually heard of it, but Link, the boss of Fahrenheit Media, was even more familiar than a big star.

is not only the popular American dramas he filmed, but the other party also makes newspaper headlines every once in a while, and every time it turns the whole of North America upside down.

And now, his son can actually join Link's company, and he is already the president of the publishing house, every time he thinks about it, he can make old Tom feel more face-saving.

"It's a pity." Old Tom shook his head again: "If I hadn't been so stingy and gave their mother and son a little more child support, maybe I wouldn't be like this today." ”

Although he sighed, old Tom was still very excited.

Of course, he knows how popular a copy of "Twilight" is. And now, the printing order for "Twilight" has been won by himself.

Although the profit margin of the printing industry is very thin, "Twilight" is so popular that it sold 1.4 million copies in one afternoon, and the last surviving copy was sold out.

As soon as he thought of this, Old Tom couldn't help but feel a burst of pride.

"Haha, look at the people who didn't buy "Twilight", they must all be going crazy by now. Hehe, what you want is in my hands now. ”

Old Tom smirked for a while, and then couldn't help but pick up his mobile phone and dial Roddy's number: "Roddy, let all the workers under him hurry up for me, do you know what you are printing now...... Wrong! That's not Twilight, that's gold! ”

As Tom Sr. said, countless people who didn't buy "Twilight" are now in a state of madness.

Open your eyes and look at the whole network, wherever there are people, they are talking about "Twilight".

And that's not all, students talk about "Twilight" at school, housewives talk about "Twilight" in community clubs, retired old people talk about "Twilight" on the streets, and even professional writers talk about "Twilight" at most.

Many people from professional backgrounds open their mouths to say what "Twilight" has created, and their mouths are closed to what the ending of "Twilight" can be.

No one would have thought that there would be a book that would fascinate people of all ages, identities, and professions.

Although "Twilight" is popular, it is very popular.

However, it is now out of stock. No matter what kind of mood people are in, whether it is to catch up with the fashion, or to truly appreciate the beauty of the book, everyone is starting to get anxious anyway.

"Nima, Lao Tzu is not short of money. Do you dare to update faster? Forehead...... No, do you dare to print faster? I'm dying. ”

Disgruntled readers call the CAA Media Group help desk all day long. The feeling of being in a hurry to go crazy is only the operator who can experience it best.

People who haven't seen "Twilight" are in a hurry because everyone around them talks about it. Since there is such a huge market demand, there will inevitably be people who take risks and engage in piracy.

Although the domestic copyright legislation in the United States is almost harsh, as long as you are caught, you can be punished for bankruptcy.

However, there is no way. Who made "Twilight" so popular that President George W. Bush was red-eyed?

Therefore, whether it is a 'kind' netizen who uploads the photocopy of "Twilight" that he bought to the Internet, or it is for the sake of cheapness. And buy pirated books.

Anyway, piracy has begun to become more and more unscrupulous.

People who have a heart can't help the torment of waiting, so they have to buy pirated books, which is basically understandable.

But. There's a lot of discussion going on online about "The Twilight Zone". The most angry crusade against piracy has also begun.

"Oh my God, the ending of 'Twilight' is so uncomfortable that I just bought it today and couldn't help but read it. To be honest, it's really good, but that ending doesn't make me accept. ”

In the vigorous discussion, the screen was full of similar speeches.

"No, "Twilight" is out of stock, how can you buy it today?"

"Oh. I bought a pirated copy, which is quite cheap. The genuine is out of stock. It's too expensive again, so ......"

"Oh, I see, please turn off the computer consciously and don't participate in the discussion of "Twilight".

"Uh...... Why? ”

"Because you don't deserve it."

"Grass, how the do you dare to scold me?"

"Lao Tzu looks at the genuine version, no matter how much he criticizes "Twilight", because Lao Tzu loves it deeply. What about you? You're a clown who watches pirates, and you're also qualified to discuss Twilight here? ”

……

The discussion among netizens continues, and CAA Media Group has also called the police, and is constantly urging the printing house to hurry up and ship, but piracy is still repeatedly banned, which makes people heartbroken.

When Link knew about this, he directly scolded his mother: "Damn, I have always robbed other people's money, and now someone actually robbed me?" Mother can bear it, dad can't bear it! Don't let Lao Tzu catch you, or Lao Tzu will sue you for going bankrupt and selling your ass......"

The vigorous rampant piracy also shows that "Twilight" has reached the point where it is difficult to find a book.

Someone on the Internet is shouting all day long: "I want "Twilight", who has it?" I can trade all my books for you, including the Harry Potter trilogy, just for a copy of the Twilight Zone! ”

When Jerry finished sending this message, he was still sighing: "Which printing house is in charge of the printing of "Twilight", why is it so slow?" ”

Just as Jerry was still sighing, his best friend Pete suddenly came to the door, looking mysterious.

"Damn, Pete, what's wrong with you today? It's like being a thief. ”

Jerry couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Pete grinned and said, "Man, do you want to watch "Twilight"? ”

"Nonsense, of course I want to watch it, I'm going crazy. If I don't watch "Twilight" again, I feel like I'm about to become a Martian. Jerry sighed as he spoke.

Pete still looked mysterious, grinning and "I can grant your wish now." ”

Jerry's eyes lit up, only to find that Pete had opened his browser and logged into a mysterious website.

After just one glance, Jerry was stunned, and Pete was still smiling proudly: "Look, what is this?" Isn't it a pleasant surprise? This is a scan of "Twilight" uploaded by a kind netizen, and it's completely free. ”

On the other hand, Jerry's face became more and more ugly, and by the end he had become a little disgusted.

"Pete." Jerry suddenly shouted.

Pete gave him a strange look: "What?" Why don't you hurry up and see it, what are you waiting for? ”

Jerry didn't answer, but said, "Do you smell a stench?" ”

"Stink?" Pete sniffed everywhere, but didn't feel anything: "No, how can it smell." ”

"Yes!" Jerry said firmly, staring at Pete: "It stinks, a stench from the depths of the soul. (To be continued......)
