Chapter 34 Exit
Yan Buwen personally checked it this time, and the two novels on the winter melon side were decent and could be published. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Wang Liangting's two novels are estimated to have been carefully selected by him, and the quality is not bad, and they can also be published. After Wang Liangting went through the last incident, he no longer dared to let Jin Feilan, a person like Iron Fan who is not at the level of the average person write, let them rest and watch it before, and there is also a guarantee of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", but now the two most popular novels are going to end, if you don't find some good novels, then the sales of "Zero Point" will inevitably plummet, and it is not clear whether he, the editor-in-chief, can keep his position as editor-in-chief at that time.
Coupled with Yan Buwen's aggressiveness before, Wang Liangting knew that if he didn't make some achievements this time, it was very likely that Manager Cao would directly kill his relatives and give up the position of editor-in-chief to Yan Buwen. However, Manager Cao should not do this, Wang Liangting thought that as long as he was not particularly incompetent, he would definitely not do such a cold-hearted thing. Therefore, Wang Liangting himself has to fight for some energy, not seeking merit but seeking no fault, and there is no way to take him if he doesn't hear it.
The matter of the "Zero" newspaper was solved, and there was another thing that troubled Wang Liangting's heart, that is, Jin Feilan, Tie Fanzi, Xiaoba and a few other relatives who were related to each other, and they were introduced to other newspapers before, especially Jin Feilan and Tie Fan were introduced to Qian Wen at the price of one thousand words, but these people were too uncompetitive, resulting in a decline in the sales of their newspaper, which was not as good as before. In the past few days, several newspaper managers have already approached Wang Liangting, and in order to avoid making things bigger, they can only find someone to ghostwrite for them.
The money earned in his pocket had to be spent before it was hot, which made Wang Liangting unwilling.
"Now the biggest enemy of "Zero" is the "Strange Man" named Pingjiang Shengsheng in "Shanghai News", as well as the new novel "Jianghu Hero" published in "Jianghu Talk" and "World Journal Nikko". Among them, "Strange People" increased the sales of "Shanghai News" to 17,000, and the total sales driven by "Jianghu Heroes" were more than 10,000. Yan Buwen was thinking, some time ago, Bu Xiaosheng directly finished "Jianghu Hero" and wrote another book "Jianghu Hero". And there were rumors in the previous "Jianghu Heroes" that it would be made into a feature film.
Yan Buwen remembered that "Jianghu Heroes" would definitely be made into a movie, and the very classic "Burning Red Lotus Temple" was adapted from this novel, but it should be filmed next year and released the year after. Perhaps, the appearance of Yan Buwen made Xiang Shuai nervous, and it was not impossible to speed up the filming process.
That's bad news for Zero. Yan Buwen sat and thought, and there was a sense of urgency that he had encountered competitors in the Shanghai company before. This feeling made Yan Buwen think of a general countermeasure within half an hour, and the rest of the time was to think about whether there were any loopholes in this countermeasure, and there were aspects that he had not considered. After thinking about it, you can write a PPT and report to the leaders above, of course, this is not in modern times, the PPT link can be omitted, you only need to write a plan, pull a meeting, and it's over.
Lu Yan will be back in about two days, and after he returns, he can start writing the next novel.
Yan Buwen was so fascinated that Yan Buwen didn't even notice it when Xiao Rong came over, until Xiao Rong lay on the table and looked at Yan Buwen for a long time, and Yan Buwen woke up.
"What do you want? So seriously. ”
"There's something to deal with, how do you have time to play here?"
"It's okay at home, are you okay?"
"Not now."
So Yan Buwen went out for a walk with Xiao Rong, and when he left, he could also think about it, which was much more efficient than thinking in the office.
On a street in the county seat of Shanghai, a middle-aged man in his thirties walked quickly, holding a newspaper in his hand, walked through the quiet street, and then came to a building, quickly went upstairs, knocked on the door, and a woman opened the door. The middle-aged man said: "Is Mr. Xiang here?" ”
"Xiang Sheng is in the back room, and now he is rushing the manuscript, I'm afraid I will trouble Mr. Song to wait outside for a while." The woman said that Xiang Shuai has a special habit of writing novels, that is, to stay in a particularly quiet place, close the curtains, and leave only a small table lamp, such a pure and quiet environment can make his inspiration burst out and write non-stop. The woman told Mr. Song, who came to visit in front of her, that Song Xiao and Xiang Sheng had been in retreat for a week, and that he only needed to hand him the food through the small door in the door every day, and then he would hand out the empty basin after eating.
Song Xiao said that he was not in a hurry, he sat here for a while, since the last time he and Li Yu, Qin Xuan, and Fang Bai came to visit, Xiang Shuai has often retreated, this is the third time, the first few times he only came out of retreat for two or three days, but this time he didn't expect it to be a week. When he came out of the retreat last time, Xiang Shuai had already thought about how to deal with Yongsheng, so he introduced Song Xiao to "Shanghai Daily", and also handed over the outline of a novel he had compiled to Song Xiao and asked him to help write it, and his pen name said that it was "Pingjiang Life".
Song Xiao was previously made very faceless by the mediocre student named Yan Buwen in the Anping Teahouse, and his master's old friend Bu Xiaosheng was so badly suppressed in Shanghai, so he didn't want to agree directly. The remuneration is also relatively high, and Kang Yang of "Shanghai Daily" gives Xiang Shuai a lot of face, even if he doesn't do it himself, but after knowing that the outline is from him, he also gives a price of three yuan per thousand words.
This novel is "Strange People". Similar to foreign science fiction novels, it tells some anecdotes and connects them to form a special novel of gods and monsters, and it also adds scientific evidence, which looks like it is happening around you. So the sales of this novel are very good, just after more than a week, the "Shanghai News" has already begun to prepare for the publication of the book. This week has also made Song Xiao earn a lot, and there are still more than 100 yuan.
Everything is a rumor, self-defeating. When Xiang Shuai took out the draft of the novel "Jianghu Hero" a week ago, Song Xiao knew that the reason why there were such rumors outside was that Xiang Shuai's "Jianghu Hero" was about to end, and Yongsheng's "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" was halfway through the release, like a contest between the elderly and the middle-aged, which allowed Yongsheng to temporarily seize the opportunity and let others have a feeling that they were not worthy of Jiang Lang's talents. So not long after the publication of "Jianghu Heroes" this time, it gradually grabbed back the market of mediocre students, and the grandmaster of the southern school still had to be unscrupulous.
This time, Song Xiao came over to tell Xiang Shuai the good news, at this stage, although the sales of the "Zero" newspaper are still high, they are still fiercely suppressed by the newspapers "Shanghai Daily" and "World Journal", and they probably can't make waves for the time being. And there was an incident in "Zero Point" recently, the above two novels were cut, which will be a fatal blow to the increase in circulation, Song Xiao has also read the two novels that were cut, and they are very rubbish, I don't know how their newspaper will pass. If you change two books with a good level, you will surpass "World Journal Nikko", which is a disaster for Yongsheng and them, and Song Xiao and Xiang Shuai are undoubtedly the best news.
And before that, Yan Buwen said that Lu Yan would be paid two yuan for writing manuscripts in their newspaper, so Song Xiao paid special attention to the novel "Snow Mountain Flying Fox" published by Lu Yan under his pen name "Lu Yanzhi". Song Xiaocai began to be quite shocked and flustered to come to Xiang Shuai to discuss countermeasures, but Xiang Shuai told him not to be nervous, wait a few chapters first, and after a few chapters, Xiang Shuai pointed out the shortcomings in Lu Yan's novels, excessive curiosity, and special writing techniques to attract readers, but the flaws are also obvious, if there are too many chapters and too many doubts, readers will not have the patience to continue chasing. So this novel is not destined to be written for long, it can only be considered a short story.
Xiang Shuai's words calmed Song Xiao's heart, if Lu Yan was allowed to surpass him, then it would be too faceless.
The woman also said that Xiang Shuai was too desperate during this time, and she only saw him work so hard when she wrote "Jianghu Heroes" the year before last. Song Xiao told women not to worry too much, this is the style of a grandmaster, and retreat can inspire inspiration. Just like the outline of "Strange People", if Xiang Shuai is asked to write it himself, it will definitely be another masterpiece, let Song Xiao write it, Song Xiao thinks that he does not have Xiang Shuai's pen power, so the level is a little worse.
No wonder his master Zhao Huanting said that Xiang Shuai is a once-in-a-century genius in the novel industry, and after some time of contact, Song Xiaocai felt that it was not groundless.
South to North Zhao, this name is not unreasonable.
Just as Song Xiao was patiently sitting outside waiting, a man's uninhibited laughter suddenly came from inside.
"Hahahaha......"
This laughter is so bold, so elated, so vigorous, this kind of laughter can only be issued by a novelist like Xiang Shuai, Xiang Shuai studied in Dongdu in his early years, martial arts are extraordinary, judo, swordsmanship is also quite attained, in addition to being a writer, but also a martial arts master. So Xiang Shuai has a neutral atmosphere that ordinary novelists don't have! The longer the retreat, the more complete the mid-term, until you finally break through the barrier and laugh out loud, which is really thrilling and moving!
Just like the retreat of the peerless masters in martial arts novels, when they come out again, there will inevitably be some fusion in the rivers and lakes.
The same is true for Xiang Shuai, Song Xiao heard Xiang Shuai's laughter and knew that Xiang Shuai's novel had been completed and was in a happy place, so Song Xiao couldn't help but stand up and patiently waited for Xiang Shuai to come out.
"Cool, mediocre life!" Xiang Shuai opened the door and walked out, his cloak was scattered, and the person had fallen into madness.
However, the light in his eyes did not decrease but increased, even more than before the retreat, and it is conceivable that the retreat not only did not weaken his spirit, but made it more energetic.
After Xiang Shuai went out, he was worried that no one would share his joy, and he happened to see Song Xiao, who had been waiting outside the door for a long time, and hurriedly came over and said with a smile: "Brother Song came just in time!" ”
