Chapter 17: Novel Signing
After watching two versions of "Exaggeration", Tang Yun expressed his opinion.
"Xiao Ran I think your two versions of the lyrics are well written, but the meaning and angle of expression are not the same, the Cantonese version of the lyrics seems to be more broadly aimed at all the little people, but the Chinese version of the lyrics is completely written from the perspective of a singer, if you follow this level, the Cantonese version may be stronger."
Xiao Xiao disagreed: "I don't think so, but I think the Chinese version of the lyrics can touch my heart more." ”
Xiao Ran didn't interject, but saw Tang Yun respond: "But Xiao Xiao, you have this feeling because you have always liked music, so you can understand the lyrics from the level of a singer, but the audience may not be able to do it, but the problem with the Cantonese version is that the three of us are all from Southern Cantonese, so it sounds easy to understand, but for listeners across the country, the popularity of Cantonese is still not enough." ”
Xiao Xiao said in response to the question she said: "I don't agree with this, first of all, Cantonese songs have always been the earliest popular trend elements, although there have been some downturns in recent years, but due to the development of science and technology, the potential of the human body has been continuously improved, and now there are not too many people who can speak several languages, so there are at least seventy percent of Cantonese people in the country who can understand it......
According to the argument between the two girls, Xiao Ran also began to understand that after all, he was in Yanjing, the capital of the entire China, far away from Nanyue, and there were indeed some problems with the popularization of Cantonese here.
But now after all, it is the Internet era, and the problem of geography does not seem to be a problem, and coupled with what Xiao Xiao said, the potential of the human body has been continuously improved under the development of science and technology, and it seems that there are already as many as seventy percent of people who have mastered Cantonese, which also shows that the spread of Cantonese songs will not be much of a problem.
At this time, Tang Yun no longer argued with Xiao Xiao, because as a Southern Cantonese person, Xiao Xiao was able to choose the Chinese version instead of the Cantonese she had been exposed to since childhood, which also represented her love for the Chinese version, plus even if more than seventy percent of people could understand Cantonese, there were still a small number of people who could not understand the subtlety of the Cantonese lyrics.
Therefore, Tang Yun also began to feel that the Chinese version might be more suitable for participating in the competition, but she did not directly put forward her own opinions, but said to Xiao Ran: "I think you should have a choice in your own heart, the lyrics of these two versions are well written, and it should be up to you to decide which one to use for the competition!" ”
Tang Yun's practice of respecting other people's choices made Xiao Ran very useful, and when he was about to say something, his mobile phone suddenly rang.
Xiao Ran only answered the phone first, only to hear a sweet and greasy voice suddenly come from the other end of the phone: "Hello, is it Mr. Xiao Ran?" ”
Hearing the other party say his name, Xiao Ran was very strange: "Yes, who are you?" ”
"Hello Mr. Xiao Ran, I am the contracted editor of the origin Chinese website, and your work "Tomb of God" published on our website is deeply appreciated by our editor-in-chief, so we hope that you can sign a contract with our website and become a contracted author, I don't know if you are willing?"
Although Xiao Ran is full of confidence in the book "Tomb of God", and knows that signing is definitely not a problem, but only one day after it was published, he received a call from the origin Chinese network asking for a contract, which still surprised Xiao Ran, it is estimated that it was during the review, because the shock of the "Tomb of God" God Death Demon Destruction at the beginning made the review editor notice, and then immediately submitted it to the editor-in-chief!
"Well, no problem, then you can send me the contract."
As soon as they heard the content of Xiao Ran's phone, the two girls were attracted and immediately leaned their heads over.
I only heard the voice of a girl on the other end of the phone, and I could vaguely hear the other party say: "No problem, the complete contract has been sent to your personal mailbox, please print the contract, attach a copy of your ID card, and mail it to our company's address in duplicate, if you have any questions to consult, I can answer them online immediately." ”
In his previous life, Xiao Ran wrote novels for five years, and there were nearly ten novels signed alone, and the printing fee and courier fee cost more than 200 yuan, so he couldn't be more familiar with the process of signing a contract.
So he immediately rejected the other party's kindness: "Don't bother you, I know how to operate." ”
"Then first welcome you to become the signed author of our origin Chinese network, I wish you a smoother and smoother writing road, if you need help, you can always find me!"
The other party was so polite, Xiao Ran naturally had to respond: "Okay, thank you!" ”
As soon as she saw Xiao Ran hang up the phone, Xiao Xiao immediately stepped forward and asked, "Brother, what contract are you talking about on the phone, it won't be a contract with Tianlai.com, right?" ”
Xiao Ran shook his head, through the understanding on the computer, Xiao Ran already knew that in addition to being a music platform, Ethereal also has contracted singers, but generally singers with three stars or above will receive the signing requirements of Ethereal.
If you get a contract with Ethereal.com, you will have the opportunity to get a recommendation on the website, as well as a variety of commercial performances.
After looking at the time, it was already five or six o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Ran hoped to print the contract before the evening and then be able to send the courier, so he hurriedly prepared to leave and said: "I have something to go out to do first, and I will record it later." ”
Tang Yun responded politely: "It's okay, you have something to do first." ”
As soon as Xiao Ran left, Xiao Xiao immediately pulled Tang Yun to the computer, and said mysteriously: "Sugar girl, what do you think my brother is going to do?" I'm feeling a little tired! ”
Saying that, Xiao Xiao immediately prepared to find some clues from the computer, and sure enough, she quickly turned out the document of Xiao Ran's novel.
As soon as she opened this document, Xiao Xiao saw the word count in it at first glance, and immediately shouted loudly: "Tang Yun, come and see, my brother must have crossed over from an alien planet, you see that this is not something that earthlings can do at all!" ”
Tang Yun was frightened by her startled expression, and immediately leaned over to take a look, and was also shocked, only to see that the writing time on it was twenty-seven hours, and the total number of words written was more than 120,000......
This is an astronomical amount for Xiao Xiao, who finds it difficult to write a thousand-word essay!
"In less than two days, I wrote more than 100,000 words, and they are all text with content and foreshadowing, are he and I really brothers and sisters of the dragon and phoenix fetus? When my mom gave birth to the two of us, she gave my IQ to my brother, right? ”
The two girls were still in constant shock, and at this time they also understood that the contract that Xiao Ran was talking about should be the online novel contract of the origin Chinese network.
