Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Alex sent the novel out, and waited almost a month to receive a reply.

"What! Here's a rejection letter! Shockingly, Alex's ambitious novel project was rejected before it could even begin.

The letter said that the novel was very well written, the author's imagination was excellent, and it was hard to believe that the author's age was only seven years old. It's just that this type of novel doesn't seem to meet the needs of the market. If there is a novel of the genre "The Lord of the Rings", I hope to continue to invest in this publishing house.

After reading the entire letter, Alex nearly tore it to shreds. He really didn't expect that the editors of this era would be so conservative, willing to take even a little risk. They are only willing to publish the genres of fiction that are already on the market, and Alex's work that completely subverts the existing novel system, they dare not touch.

It's no wonder that the editor would do this, not to mention Alex's novel from online literature, and even the novel written by Aunt Rowling was inevitably rejected. Even more than once, but many publishers have rejected the manuscript.

In 1996, Aunt Rowling's first Harry Potter series suffered rejections, and 12 publishers rejected them, before B1oomsbury agreed to publish it, but the royalty was only £15oo in advance.

And that's not all, when she became famous, Aunt Rowling wrote another novel. This is a 45o long detective novel called "The Cuckoo is Calling". This time, she used the pseudonym of Robert Gelblaise to submit the manuscript, but it was very sad and was rejected again.

Alex doesn't know about Rowling's dark history, and he still thinks that the book he wrote is very interesting, but the editor is too stupid to understand. He continued to send the novel to other publishers, and he did not believe that he could not find Bole with vision.

While Alex was busy publishing a novel, the Carpenter family had another piece of good news!

Angel is there again, and Alex and Richard will soon have an extra brother or sister! This made Bart overjoyed, and he had been talking about having children for the past few years. The Carpenter brothers are so good that if they had one more child, they would have been able to do without outsiders.

In Bart's anticipation, Angel's belly is getting bigger and bigger every day. On March 2, 195o, Richard and Alex's sister was born!

A month later, Bart named the newborn daughter Karen Carpenter!

At this time, Alex was busy revising the novel, studying music, and performing everywhere, and he didn't have the energy to pay attention to his little sister Karen.

It wasn't until he sent the first of the Harry Potter series of novels once again that he had the spirit to pay attention to his new sister!

"Karen! I am here! Alex leaned down to tease his sister in the cradle, then quickly walked out of her sight. I'm gone, ahaha! ”

While Cullen was confused, Alex quickly appeared in front of her.

"I'm out again! Ha ha! Fun no! ”

Alex was smiling and playing with his sister Karen, he was in a good mood right now, the manuscript had been sent, and now he just had to be patient.

"It's okay this time, I've changed the novel again, and it's much better than the first version." Alex teased his sister Karen over and over again, thinking about the novel's problems.

"Wait! The younger brother is called Richard Carpenter, and the younger sister is called Karen Carpenter? It sounds familiar! ”

Suddenly, Alex had a strange feeling in his heart! He quickly searched his memory bank and soon found the relevant information.

Karen Carpenter and her brother Richard Carpenter formed the famous carpenter's band. Born in Connecticut in 195o, Carpenter studied musical instruments under the influence of her older brother and became a drummer, while her brother Richard, who was three years older than her, was a very talented young man who worked as a piano accompanist and producer, and wrote a large number of songs.

Later, with the help of the famous manager De Newven, he entered the American pop music scene. In 197o, the song "C1oseToyou" topped the charts, which made the carpenter siblings an instant hit, and in the 70s they continued to produce excellent works, becoming the idols of countless American youth, and President Nixon called the Carpenter siblings the best American young Americans.

"No wonder! I've always thought Richard Carpenter's name was familiar, and it turned out that he was Karen Carpenter's big brother! ”

Alex suddenly realized that since he was born, he had always found the surname Carpenter very strange. Because Carpenter's word translated into Chinese means "carpenter"!

"Why is there no information about Alex Carpenter at all? Am I a person who does not exist in history? Alex was a little entangled in his identity, and he checked and checked, but there was no trace of his zài. However, perhaps Alex in history did die in 1942, and it is logical that he has no relevant information in his head.

What impressed Alex the most was the "Yesterday Reappearing" sung by his sister Karen! This song is a must-play repertoire for his English teacher when he takes an English pronunciation class in college. Listening to that song, you can touch the deepest memories of human hearts.

Alex watched the video of "Yesterday Again" again in his mind, and the singing, the feeling, made him feel as if he had traveled through time and space, and returned to the past.

"What a sister to me! This song is enough to immortalize her, and even Richard has a lot of light. ”

Alex looked up information while admiring, but fortunately he liked this song very much in his previous life, so he had looked up relevant information, otherwise, he might not have known that Richard and Cullen were the famous "Carpenter brother and sister" group.

Written by Richard Carpenter and John Beddis, "Yesterday Again" has been covered by countless singers, and the gold-winning single was runner-up in both the United States and the United Kingdom. Now the song has become one of the best-selling singles of the time.

"Wait, I remember that Karen died early, and at that time he just took a quick look and didn't investigate the cause in depth!"

Thinking of the countless possibilities, Alex hurriedly looked down for information about Carpenter.

It's a pity for Karen? Carpenter died prematurely at the age of 32. She died of anorexia nervosa. This is due to the fact that in order to maintain her figure, she took laxatives for a long time, and the consequences of a long diet.

She died in the arms of her loving parents on February 4, 1983. Karen? Carpenter has a beautiful voice, a natural, slightly sad singing, and their use of multi-track recordings, so their recordings are artistically and technically successful, and they are masterpieces of contemporary pop music.

Seeing this, Alex was shocked, he didn't expect his little sister Karen to die early because of that hellish anorexia!

He looked at the giggling baby girl in the cradle and said to her with determination, "Since I have become your eldest brother, I will definitely not let you go down the old path!" Don't worry! I'll raise you for nothing! ”

After learning that his sister Cullen and brother Richard would be in the American music industry in the future, he wondered if he should push it behind. It is also in his own interest to allow Richard and Cullen to make their debut as soon as possible. After all, everyone earns money together, they are all members of the family, how can they be left behind!

It seems that it is not difficult to make money through guò music, but it is actually quite difficult. After all, now my sister Karen is only a few months old, and she is only more than eight years old, and her younger brother Richard is less than five years old! Even talented people need the right timing to succeed!

"I'm too young to do anything!" Alex couldn't help but sigh. He knows that many people have made a lot of money, a lot of money at a very young age. For example, the famous American child actress Shirley Temple, she was already famous at home and abroad at the age of six. There is also superstar Mike Jackson, who performed on stage at the age of three, released records when he was six years old, and sold three records in a row when he was ** years old.

Sometimes, people are really angry with people compared to people. It stands to reason that a traversal like Alex should have gained fame and fortune a long time ago. Not only does he have the ability, but he is also talented enough, but because he didn't have the right opportunity, he has been ruined until now.

Alex said with a broken thought in his mouth: "Why are people who have passed through the rebirth of the guy, how can they be so awesome." At the age of three or four, he can carry a gun and fight a cannon, at the age of five or six, he is rich and a party, at the age of seven or eight, there are countless beauties in the pink and pink, he is invincible in his teens, he punches Europe and the United States at the age of 20, and he steps on Japan and South Korea. No matter how bad we are, we can't be worse than mortals like Xiulan or Mike! ”

In fact, Alex also knows where his problems are. First of all, he lacks opportunities, and no one who has a chance can not fly. Secondly, there is still a matter of age, there are many people in history who can really do great things at the age of seven or eight, but that is all due to luck. Again, that is, Alex himself is lazy, and if he really plans well, he can also use the knowledge of later generations to make a name for himself.

This time it's different, he's going to fight it, and as for how to fight, he really has to think about it.

No chance? Then create your own chance!

No luck? Well, this luck is really not something he can control. However, it is already great luck to be reborn through it, what kind of strong luck does he need!

The rest is to think about how to use their own advantages and become famous in one fell swoop. A year or two ago, Alex thought that achieving fame and fortune was very simple, as long as he relied on "Harry Potter", a great killer and invincible magic weapon to attract gold. Even if you can't make yourself hundreds of millions of dollars a year like Aunt Rowling, at least you can earn 1.8 million yuan.

Unexpectedly, there was no one in his book. Keep sending it out, keep being returned. After more than a dozen rejections, Alex no longer wants to rely on this to make money. It is safer for him to make money through guò music, and it is more in line with his current situation.

As for how to go the music route, he already had an idea, but he still had to find some help.
