Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Since that night, Zhao Yazi has deliberately kept some distance from Li Mingbao in the crew. After all, as a married woman, although she has a thousand grievances, she is morally untenable. Li Mingbao is indeed excellent, and she also has a good impression, but the problem is that there can be no result between him and Li Mingbao at all. There was no result, so Zhao Yazi had no choice but to put this heart in her heart, wanting this idea to change with the passage of time.
It's a pity that Zhao Yazi's actions obviously can't get any effect, because Li Mingbao's idea is completely opposite to Zhao Yazi, the most important factor in digging the corner of the wall is diligence, and he is not diligent anymore, where is the corner so easy to dig down? So for Zhao Yazi's reaction, Li Mingbao only used the word trick to turn Zhao Yazi's thoughts into flowing water, and within two days, Zhao Yazi's efforts were wasted.
Li Mingbao's behavior not only made Zhao Yazi lose his proportion, but even Li Minghui was in a hurry. There's no way, the matter between his younger brother and Zhao Yazi, he is not an idiot, how can he not see it? But Li Minghui against Li Mingbao, obviously there will be no good results, after Li Mingbao went back that night, he prevaricated Li Minghui indiscriminately, and Li Minghui can only be anxious.
Compared with these trivial matters between men and women, Li Minghui is more concerned about the attitude of the sixth uncle. But Li Mingbao's answer did not satisfy Li Minghui, because even he was a little unclear about the relationship between Uncle Shao Liu and his grandfather. Although Li Minghui is better than Li Mingbao, he still has memories of his grandfather before, but the memories of his childhood cannot be analyzed until now.
The eldest brother won't talk about these things, and the parents won't talk about these things, and they can't solve the problem by purely imagining. But after that day, Li Minghui asked the eldest brother, and the eldest brother did not block the way to this matter, but said that the time had come, and the parents would naturally say that it was not yet time. So this problem is still unsolved. But fortunately, Uncle Six's words are definitely not a bad thing for his own little five, and if he continues to be confused, there will be no bad impact.
Because of the popularity of "Shanghai Tang", the crew, who was already in a hurry, became more busy, and the result of the busyness was that the crew quickly finished filming the next TV series. After the sixth uncle got the TV series, he naturally had enough confidence, compared to the gloomy clouds of beauty, the sixth uncle sat firmly in the city tower.
The crew dispersed, and the two brothers Li Minghui and Li Mingbao, who had nothing to do for the time being, honestly took a vacation at home, waiting for the next comeback. If Li Minghui is really on vacation and leisurely, then Li Mingbao's life is not so comfortable, a man who wants to be a literary tyrant, even if he has eight hands, it is not enough for him.
Although Li Mingbao now has only three works in his hands, one is "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", and one is "Iron and Blooded Tianjiao", and the last one is "Kunlun", the first two books, the manuscript is completed, but the back "Kunlun" is a tome, and the Ming Pao is more urgent than urging a child.
There was a crew in the way before, even if Shen Baoxing was in a hurry, there was no way to let Li Mingbao write the script, but now that the crew is over, where can Shen Baoxing not hurry up and let Li Mingbao write an article?
At this time, the time has crossed to January 198o, and it is not too far from the Spring Festival, early in the morning of the 14th, Shen Baoxing, the helm of Ming Pao, came to Li Mingbao in a hurry again.
Seeing Shen Baoxing appear in front of him again, Li Mingbao said with some distress: "Mr. Shen, it's useless for you to urge me, I even use the toilet to run during this time, I've tried my best, no more." Besides, hasn't this "Kunlun" signed a contract with Ming Pao yet? You don't need a newspaper, why are you in such a hurry? ”
Seeing Li Mingbao's appearance, Shen Baoxing was also a little embarrassed to help his glasses. Regarding the book "Kunlun", I really don't blame him for running diligently, even Mr. Cha asks the situation from time to time, what can he do?
But fortunately, the main purpose of coming today is not this, otherwise Shen Baoxing wouldn't know how to speak.
"Ah Bao, I came today to bring you good news, your book "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" can be published, and it is seven full editions. I'm so tired to bring you this good news, and that's how you did it to me? Anyway, I'm an old-timer, so give me a face. ”
"Oh? Is this ready for publication? This is really good news, I am short of money recently, Mr. Shen, please sit down, I will pour you water, do you drink clear tea or flower tea. Hearing that his book was published, Li Mingbao immediately became a dog's leg, not only pressed Shen Baoxing to the stool affectionately, but also pretended to make tea for Shen Baoxing.
Shen Baoxing and Li Mingbao have been dealing with each other for a short time, so they naturally know that Li Mingbao is just doing it, so he doesn't expect tea, and says directly: "Yes, it can be published, but the loss of our Ming Pao is great, no way, who asked Mr. Cha to take care of it personally, even if it has an impact on our Ming Pao, then I don't have to do it?" Even if you owe us a big favor, shouldn't you discuss your "Kunlun"? ”
Hearing Shen Baoxing say this, Li Mingbao couldn't help but sneer: "Mr. Shen, your ability to see the stitches really makes me admire!" If it's a real loss, will Mr. Cha agree? He and Uncle Six are a virtuous and good friend, and after I met Uncle Six, I have a deep understanding of Mr. Cha. They can eat anything, but they must not suffer.
If you're really going to lose, you won't be able to come to me today. Although I've been busy writing novels at home lately and don't know much about the outside world, my dad is a big reader of Ming Pao. The recent craze for the book that has been noisy about me has passed, and the harvest of Mingbao has been reaped. Next, "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" will become dull. At this time, the physical book "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" happened to be launched, which can be regarded as waste utilization, and it can make another profit if the boom has not completely passed. This business is really good.
As for "Kunlun", it is to reach a new high, after all, martial arts novels are definitely more widely used than "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", and with a chicken rib in exchange for this book, Mr. Cha's ability to do business is not much worse than his ability to write articles. ”
Hearing Li Mingbao's words, Shen Baoxing couldn't help but smile bitterly. If he hadn't known that Li Mingbao was indeed only seventeen years old, and his eighteenth birthday hadn't yet arrived, he would have thought that he was negotiating with an old fox, and this skill was not like a seventeen-year-old person at all.
But a bitter smile is a bitter smile, and those who should be defended still have to be justified, otherwise they will be completely at a disadvantage, and the things that will wait for will be even more difficult to talk about.
"Ah Leopard, you're joking, "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" is not a chicken rib, this book will definitely be popular if it is to be published. Now you are also a contributor to Ming Pao, and you happen to have a book in your hand, if you don't take out the book now, your reputation will fade. And the price that Mr. Cha gave you this time is not bad, one hundred and five thousand words, which is a price that only university professors can get, which is enough to show that Mr. Cha attaches great importance to you. ”
"Well, although I'm still not very satisfied with the price, who called Mr. Cha the leader of the martial arts alliance? Originally, when I wrote martial arts, I was influenced by Mr. Cha, but now Mr. Cha's words, can I not agree? One hundred and five thousand words is one hundred and five, and I agreed to this, including the previous "Iron and Blood Tianjiao", which is also at this price.
We don't need to discuss this point too much, but let's talk about publishing for now. If "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" could be published, there could be seven copies, but I don't agree with seven copies being published together, which is not good for both of us. If the book sells poorly, isn't Ming Pao losing money? I think it's better to publish one by one, depending on the sales volume to publish, the quality is determined by the market, not the unified price, Mr. Shen, what do you think? Li Mingbao looked like he was thinking about Ming Pao, so Shen Baoxing's last luck was gone.
Don't look at the previous time he said that seven books were published at the same time, it seems that it is very face-giving to Li Mingbao, and it seems that Mingbao is very arrogant. After all, the publication of seven books at the same time is still risky for Ming Pao.
Publishing books in the publishing industry, unless it is a person like Jin Yong Gulong, who has the support of a broad readership, and the whole book is guaranteed to be published, the general newcomers, publishing novels, the publishing house is to take one or two copies to test the water first, and the results are good, then the latter will continue to be published, if the results are not good, then I am sorry, no matter how many words you have, you have to cut it in half, if you don't cut it in half, then the publishing house will lose money.
Therefore, the publication of seven books at the same time is definitely the best treatment for the average newcomer. But Li Mingbao's own family knows his own affairs, and the book "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" is not an ordinary book. When it was published in later generations, more than 10 million copies could be published in places like Big 6, where piracy was rampant, and such an achievement was definitely tested by the market.
Even if it is published in Hong Kong now, in terms of Ming Pao's business channels, the Chinese areas in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, they all have channels, and even if they can't sell more than 10 million copies, there is absolutely no problem with millions of copies. Therefore, Li Mingbao never thought that the publishing house would lose money if this book was published.
Since he will not lose money, Li Mingbao will naturally not agree to publish seven books at the same time, after all, if he does that, when the publishing house takes the risk, it will also lower the price of the author, and the share will be much less, and the money spent in vain will slip out of his hands, of course Li Mingbao can't pretend not to see it. Although these things are still relatively secret things for the current publishing house, there are memories from thirty years later, plus a whiteness of Li Mingbao, these things have no secrets at all. Mingbao wants to habitually lower prices, and when he meets Li Mingbao, a person with a clear door, he will naturally not get any good results.
In the end, Shen Baoxing and Li Mingbao still reached an agreement on publishing, but in Shen Baoxing's eyes, this agreement is definitely a humiliating unequal treaty, for a newcomer to get such an agreement, Shen Baoxing doesn't know how to explain to Mr. Cha when he goes back later. And after this time, Shen Baoxing resolutely did not negotiate with Li Mingbao, even if there was cooperation later, Shen Baoxing did not have the experience of being present in person, because negotiating with Li Mingbao was really a painful memory.
