Chapter 38: Good News and Better News
"Qiu Xi, you write good novels and sing so good songs, why are you so powerful?"
Zhang Qiuxi has already become the campus idol of No. 3 Middle School, not only the students admire her immensely, but even the teacher often says when educating students, look at Zhang Qiuxi in the next class, how is she now, if you don't study hard, you can only do what you can do in the future.
As for the question of why it is so powerful, I can only answer in my heart that the traverser is omnipotent, and if you cross, you can do it.
This qiē makes her feel very satisfied, after the little vanity that has been suppressed for a long time in her previous life is satisfied, her mood has been extremely happy, and her little life is extremely nourishing, of course, because of the relationship of transformation, there are often some depressing things.
For example, every time she comes to school with a good mood and finds that there are dozens of love letters in the desk, her good mood is swept away.
Zhang Qiu didn't even look at it, and directly stuffed these love letters into a plastic bag and prepared to throw them into the trash, Li Yue said with a playful smile: "Ah Qiu, you really have no interest in reading it at all, maybe you can find Prince Charming from it." ”
Knight in shining armor? Zhang Qiuxi was dizzy for a while, then hugged Li Yue, kissed her the little cheek, and took advantage of it before saying, "Niu'er, it's enough for Uncle Ben to have you." ”
"You're drooling a lot." Li Yue wiped his face with his hand in disgust.
In the eyes of others, the intimate behavior of the two actually just felt that Zhang Qiu's image of a female wolf was very well played, and the boy did not show a regretful expression after seeing the lily bloom, and sure enough, such behavior between girls was nothing.
"Qiu Xi, what is written in it are really not interesting to you?" Seeing the bag of love letters in Zhang Qiuxi's hand, the girls in the class all came over.
"The person who still uses such old-fashioned methods these days, can you still expect him to write a flower?" Zhang Qiuxi shook his head and said that he was really not interested.
Li Yue smiled and said: "Maybe others are because they have confidence in the literary style, so they give full play to their strengths to write love letters." ”
"How can I say that I am also a writer, isn't it equivalent to singing the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in front of Han Hong...... Well, it's the class that gets the axe. Since you're all so curious, I'll open it up and let you see. ”
Zhang Qiuxi opened one casually and read: "I have admired you for a long time, I hope to make friends with you, this is my ICQ number, please be sure to add me." ”
"It's a good thing to make up, what kind of love letter is this? Why don't you just leave me a room number? Zhang Qiuxi was completely speechless about these love letters, crumpled them into a ball and stuffed them into a plastic bag again, and threw them into the trash can.
If I didn't see the numbness, these female classmates lost interest, and returned to their places to wait for class, and the days passed day by day in such a pleasant and depressing contradiction.
"Fragrance in the Sea of Blood" is steadily updated at a rate of two chapters per issue, and as the story progresses, missions with their own characteristics such as Miao Monk Wuhua and Central Plains Little Red have appeared, and their popularity has skyrocketed in the reader's survey.
"This is a very special story, it can't be that the style or writing characteristics are completely different from the previous martial arts novels, after Hua Yongsheng, every author who tries to create martial arts novels carries his traces, only Xiaoyaozi jumped out perfectly, with a master's demeanor."
When the serialization reached the sixth chapter, the editor of "Jianghu Night Talk" commented on the popular works according to the convention, and praised them and said that they were very optimistic about the future development, but it was just that.
"Fragrance in the Sea of Blood" is already a popular work, but the magazine did not say the slightest, thinking that she just wrote a short story and asked her to sign a contract with "Fantasy World", and now it has been sought after by readers, but "Night Talk in the Rivers and Lakes" has not appeared.
The treatment is really different between the unpopular and the popular. In fact, she doesn't care about the identity of a columnist, but if she doesn't sign a contract with a magazine, she can't get anywhere in the manuscript fee, and of course the more money, the better.

"I have good news and a better news for you, which do you want to hear first?" When Azuki called, his tone was very excited.
"Please, you're going to play such a childish game with me when you've been gone for so long." Zhang Qiuxi said: "Report to me in order." ”
"You probably won't care about the first news, because you're already a martial arts master." Obviously, Hongdou also read the master-style comment of the editor of "Jianghu Night Talk", and there was still resentment in his tone.
Zhang Qiuxi was silent, and Hongdou continued: "Don't regret saying it, the news from the United States has come back that the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy has sold 300,000 copies, and Acewell has decided to print it for the fifth time." ”
Only 300,000 copies were printed in four times, and these American booksellers were really cautious, and the two printings in China were already 500,000 copies.
In his heart, he despised Acewell Company, and Zhang Qiuxi said in a flat tone: "I don't regret it, but I can't be happy, and it's none of my business to sell well." ”
300,000 is already a good result, it seems that this will not be the final sales, it is indeed very unexpected for Zhang Qiuxi to sell so much, is it that they have always been a cultural barrier that no longer exists?
"The meaning of the English version of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy was originally to pave the way, and we can talk about royalties after this book is sold."
"It's too early to say that, so let's talk about the next news."
"The Restaurant at the End of the Universe" has already been released in China, but even if "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" sells well in the United States, Eswell will not think of publishing the book so quickly, at least until the popularity subsides, and that is the best time.
"We'll sell it at the price and let you know when there's news." Hongdou responded first, and then continued: "The second better news is that my sister is graduating this year, and the editor-in-chief has already mentioned to me the matter of becoming a regular editor, and I will not just be an intern editor in the future." ”
"Oh, I see, I said how did you seem to have disappeared during this time."
"I have to write my graduation thesis and prepare for my graduation defense, and I am also very busy. Anyway, you've already handed in the manuscript, and there's nothing special about it. Hongdou first explained, and then said dissatisfiedly: "Hey, your tone is too bland, don't you know how happy you are for me?" ”
Zhang Qiuxi said: "Actually, I want you to invite me to dinner to celebrate." ”
