Chapter 30: No need

30

It's really impossible if you want to win the grand prize!

Ma Youwei looked at Chen Beiming, emphasizing word by word.

After a pause, Ma Youwei spoke again: "Xiaoshan, although I told you earlier that we are going to charge the grand prize together, but you have to understand one thing, we can have this idea, and we can also go all out, but there are things that you will not be able to succeed if you work hard, not to mention anything else, the gap between you and Li Mingyu is not something that can be made up in the short term, so I think it's okay to work hard, as for the result, don't think too much, okay?" ”

Chen Beiming listened and sighed softly.

How could Ma Youwei understand his feelings!

Winning the grand prize is a task assigned by the system, just like a soldier for orders, he can only obey, there is no room for bargaining.

However, he didn't plan to waste his tongue on this matter, he nodded: "Teacher Ma, I know." ”

Ma Youwei stopped talking, just patted him.

Chen Beiming said a few more words to Ma Youwei, and then picked up the bag of letters and left.

He was in a bad mood and a little depressed.

In fact, he knew that what Ma Youwei said was all the truth, and it was all for his good.

But the more this happened, the more sad his heart became.

He published an article in a military newspaper, and with the promotion and publicity of the magazine, he still has only a 20% chance!

That's too shocking, isn't it?

At this time, in his mind, the civet cat's voice sounded: "Chen Beiming, how about it, I'm right, with your current ability, it is really impossible to complete this task, your only hope is to borrow 10,000 yuan from me to buy lucky fruits." ”

Chen Beiming didn't bother to pay attention.

The civet cat continued to bewitch: "Chen Beiming, people, you can't be too stingy, right?"

I don't want to give anything but I want to give it back, so how is that possible?

Do you know why the system asked me to help you, he actually knew that with your ability, many tasks are impossible to complete, so that's why I asked me to help you.

But I can't help you in vain, what's wrong with me charging some interest?

You can't always try to take advantage of me, can you?

I served you for free last time when you took the exam, and this time, you gave me a little sweetness! You can't be so stingy! ”

"I'll think about it later." Chen Beiming didn't refuse as much as he did at the beginning, at this moment, he already knew how difficult it was to complete this task, so he ...... It's better to leave yourself a way back.

Hearing Chen Beiming's answer, the civet cat smiled, slowly clenched his palm into a fist, and then looked at his fist and smiled proudly: "Chen Beiming, one day, you will definitely obey me, hahahaha——"

Of course, the civet cat didn't dare to laugh out loud, but just lusted in his heart.

In the afternoon of the day, around three o'clock.

Li Mingyu came to a high-end teahouse as promised.

"Teacher Li, you're here."

Seeing him coming, a beautiful woman of about thirty years old stood up to greet him.

"Xiao Yang, why did you come so early? Didn't you say it's good at 3:30? Li Mingyu smiled warmly.

"Of course you have to see Mr. Li a little earlier, otherwise there will be a traffic jam on the road or something, so what can I do?" The beautiful editor replied in a slightly flattering voice.

The two of them sat down in the private room and exchanged pleasantries for a while, and the beautiful editor took out a large document bag from her bag, which was full of money, about 100,000 yuan.

"Mr. Li, this is your manuscript fee for this month." The beautiful editor explained with a smile while handing the money to Li Mingyu.

This month, the end of Li Mingyu's novel was serialized for the last time in "October", so the word count is not much, only a little more than 20,000 words, but the manuscript fee is 100,000.

Li Mingyu's manuscript fee has been 5,000 words.

Li Mingyu took the document bag and stuffed it directly into his bag without looking at it.

He's a bit old-fashioned, and until now he doesn't like bank cards or anything, and he doesn't like to save money, he likes cash, and he likes to keep money in the safe at home.

"Mr. Li, do you have any suitable works now?" Seeing that Li Mingyu had put the money away, the beautiful editor hurriedly asked with a smile.

"Where are there so many works? The last one drained all my inspiration in the past few years, and I have to recuperate for a while. Li Mingyu shook his head, a little emotional.

"That's right, Mr. Li's novel is really well written, for most writers, it is quite remarkable that a person can write such a work in a lifetime, but Mr. Li has written two such works so far, far more than most people."

The beautiful editor complimented for a while, which led the topic to the key point of the day: "Oh, by the way, Mr. Li, I have made a publicity plan for you in the past few days, you can see if there is any problem." ”

The beautiful editor said as she handed a copy of the material to Li Mingyu.

Li Mingyu flipped through it roughly, nodded and said, "Then it's all up to Xiao Yang to arrange." ”

"It is my honor to serve Mr. Li." The beautiful editor smiled, and after a moment, she said: "Oh, Mr. Li, by the way, your competitor this time has one more person, the author of "Bright Sword", whose pen name is Xiaoshan. ”

Li Mingyu smiled: "I have read the work "Bright Sword", and it is really well written. ”

The beautiful editor smiled and said, "I don't know if Mr. Li has heard about it, the author of "Bright Sword" is ready to compete with you for the selection of the special prize!" ”

Yes?

Li Mingyu was stunned for a moment, and after coming back to his senses, he looked at the beautiful editor in disbelief: "You just said that the author of "Bright Sword" wants to compete with me for the grand prize?" ”

"Hmm." The beauty editor nodded.

"Oh." Li Mingyu replied lightly, indicating that he understood, and after a moment, he smiled and said, "The future is terrifying!" I remember when I was in my early twenties, I was very timid, I worked hard to write something, but I just didn't dare to give it to the teacher for comments. A ragged colt may make a good horse! A ragged colt may make a good horse! ”

The beautiful editor looked at Li Mingyu and asked tentatively: "I heard that the club is going to carry out a promotion and publicity activity of "Bright Sword" in a few days...... Mr. Li, should we do a similar activity? ”

As soon as the beautiful editor said this, Li Mingyu raised her hand to interrupt: "Don't! ”

Li Mingyu looked at the beautiful editor and said lightly: "Xiao Yang, you know, what I don't like the most now is these activities, the one you just gave me is already my limit, more, I really can't accept it anymore." ”

"Okay Mr. Li, I know, in fact, I don't think I need it!" The beauty editor nodded.

Li Mingyu smiled and thought so.

is just a Chen Beiming, even if his "Bright Sword" is really good, but how can it be worth his fight?
