Chapter 55: The Female Editor-in-Chief

Subtitle of this chapter: I am born to flirt with my sister

Yuan Yan laughed, thinking that this was a rather interesting chick. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info he took a closer look, this quite interesting chick looks pretty good, the only flaw of this Brunette is that she is a little short and a little flat.

Brunette is a beautiful woman with black hair, skin, and eyes. And the blonde, fair-skinned, blue-eyed Blonde is just opposite.

He bowed slightly: "So do I, a Chinese, have this honor to know the name of the lady from Athens?" ”

Brunette smiled slightly, stretched out her hand generously, and said, "Of course." My name is Helen-Brown and it's a pleasure to meet you. Then you are ......"

Yuan Yan said in her heart, this is really a Helen. He shook hands with the other and said, "Neo, Neo-Yuan." ”

Miss Helen Brown's eyes flashed, and she blurted out, "Oh, so you're the Chinese at Stern College." ”

Our Master Yuan asked strangely, "So, Miss Brown, do you know me...... By the way, you're John's girlfriend! ”

He remembered that since Mr. McCall was Paris of Troy, his female companion should naturally be Helen of Sparta.

Sparta...... Well, Helen from Manhattan nodded, "That's right, and we're classmates, but I'm a third-year student in the College of Arts and Sciences......"

Just then, their conversation was interrupted by a waiter behind the bar: "Miss, sir." Your vodka martini. ”

The two took the big triangular glass from the waiter's hand, and Yuan Yanqian turned his head and asked, "What are we toasting toast ”

Miss Brown said, "Just for your novel." ”

This time our Master Yuan was really taken aback. He secretly said in his heart that it was impossible for this chick to have read "Fifty Shades of Grey" and "The Territory of Jerusalem", so naturally it was another food-themed women's novel.

He lightly touched the glasses with the other party with doubt, and each took a sip of the cocktail in the glass.

Yuan Yanqian, who had taken a sip of the vodka martini, opened her mouth and asked, "Miss Helen Brown, so you still read my novels?" ”

"Yes. Well, since we're talking about your novel...... Helen of Manhattan suddenly put a smile on her face and said businessmanly: "Mr. Yuan, as the assistant to the president of New York University Press, I regret to officially inform you that we at New York University Press will not publish or recommend your novel to other publishers. ”

It's a pity that her "flattering eyes" were thrown to the blind man, and the author of the novel who was rejected asked without surprise: "What is the reason?" ”

Seeing his reaction, Miss Brown was a little disappointed, but still said seriously: "Not healthy! Some people have commented that your novel is immoral and anti-Christian. ”

Well, our Master Yuan has long been mentally prepared to be rejected, but these two reasons ...... Actually, it's not that it can't be said that this book is a little less "healthy" than it was by 1920 standards.

So he said nonchalantly, "Oh, that's bad news for you." So what about your good news? ”

Miss Brown said in a very serious manner, "Mr. Yuan, as the editor-in-chief of the magazine Cosmopolitan-women, I am honored to formally invite you to serialize your novel in our magazine. Although our "Women of the World" was launched in the middle of this year, ......"

Regardless of the fact that her "Cosmopolitan-women" has the same name as the world's best-selling young women's magazine, it is actually just a self-entertaining personal publication like "The Conservative".

However, as a literary young woman in the twenties of the twentieth century, Miss Helen Brown really likes this novel by Yuan Yanqian very much.

So she tried to keep her face down, playing the role of the editor of a big magazine, and said in a matter-of-fact manner: "Although our "Women of the World" was just launched in the middle of this year, this magazine has a great influence among young women in New York, and its circulation has reached the level of thousands. ”

Don't underestimate this thousands, compared to the circulation of later generations, there is about an in-house newspaper. Not so much in 1920

It's a pity that in fact, the thousands she said are all these issues combined...... There are more than a thousand copies that are a little bit short.

Miss Witch swallowed and said, "And in terms of remuneration, ......"

"Master ball, that bit of B coins is provided by this flat-chested woman?"

"It's not. The amount of B that can be provided by a particular person can only be calculated after the host has made a choice and evaluated the impact of your choice on future generations. ”

"I see, that means that if you encounter a key NPC, you can't give the result on the spot with the Master Ball, right?"

"Yes."

Yuan Yan, who knew it in her heart, picked up the toothpick with green olives and said lightly: "Okay." ”

"It's quite generous in terms of remuneration! We're ready to ......," the young female editor-in-chief of World Women, who had been talking about herself for a long time, finally came to her senses, "What? What did you say? ”

Our Master Yuan bit down on a green olive, chewed it a few times and swallowed it, then turned his head and said lightly: "Miss Brown, as the author of this novel, I am happy to officially allow you to publish this novel of mine in the magazine "Women of the World". ”

Miss Brown, who moved into the role of editor, then asked, "What about the remuneration?" ”

"Money is the thing...... Too-low for me! Yuan Yanqian waved his hand and said, "Raising money hurts the relationship between us." ”

Our Master Yuan doesn't really regard money as dung, but how much can this kind of small magazine with a circulation of several issues add up to thousands, and can it compensate for the losses of their old Yuan family in the stock market crash at the end of next year? The big head is gone, and the small head is what to worry about.

He really doesn't care much about these novels in his heart, for a plagiarist like Yuan Yanqian with a system, where is it not posted, as long as it can be published as soon as possible to earn B coins, what kind of literary and artistic works can't be "written"?

I have to say that the mentality of Yuan Yanqian, a plagiarist, is still very "positive". Since it's plagiarism, don't hold it on the shelf, and make it look like you're really a great writer, which is too hypocritical.

It's a pity that Helen in Manhattan didn't know that the second half of the sentence was "mentioning our feelings hurt money", and she said in disbelief: "Really?! Then I'll give you ......."

"Wait!" Our Master Yuan looked Miss Brown up and down with a critical gaze, straightened up and said proudly: "I don't care what the remuneration is, as long as you promise me one condition......
