Chapter 134: If nothing else

Wang Defu doesn't want to sign a deed of sale casually, after all, this capitalist Chinese empire where the sun never sets, is relatively perfect in all aspects of the law, including intellectual copyright, etc., he does not want the copyright of his works to be controlled by other capital, but wants to control them all in his own hands.

After all, Wang Defu is not the kind of commercial writer who can only rely on words to eat, he is not a type of literati compared with those commercial writers, the latter is too dependent on the platform, maybe he is more famous in a certain magazine, but when he writes in another magazine, there are no readers at all.

And Wang Defu is obviously not this kind of writer who relies on the platform very much, he brings his own traffic, and the three words "Wang Defu" appear in any newspaper and magazine, and for his admirers, they can't help but chase his traces.

Therefore, even Hang Shuitao, a senior editor of the "Monthly News", invited Wang Defu so sincerely, while ordinary business writers, when meeting with a senior editor like Hang Shuitao, were a little unable to straighten their waists, so they hoped to have a good relationship with him.

Although Hang Shuitao did not succeed in inviting Wang Defu this time, he also succeeded in making friends with Wang Defu, and the two maintained correspondence, and he even took the initiative to come to Suzhou and directly invited Wang Defu to dinner, expressing his sincerity with the "Monthly News" magazine in person.

Wang Defu naturally couldn't really let Hang Shuitao invite him to dinner, how to say that he was a native of Suzhou, of course, he had to do his best to be a landlord, and besides, he now relied on the rather generous manuscript fee to invite guests to dinner or something, which was not a problem at all.

Fortunately, Hang Shuitao is not a female editor, otherwise he would probably fall in love at first sight with a new literary star like Wang Defu with top appearance, extraordinary talent, and outstanding conversation, regardless of whether he is very confused in terms of feelings.

This is probably like those red faces in women, even if you know that she is very scum and messy, surrounded by all kinds of men, but the men who like her will still follow one after another.

Ling Jingsu is actually this kind of woman, that is, after she met Wang Defu, she reined in the style that attracted all kinds of moths to the fire that attracted men, otherwise there would never be a shortage of men sent to the door by her side, often as long as she participated in a party, banquet or something, there would be all kinds of men to contact information.

For a woman, as long as she does not reject very completely, and always shows that she is still single, it is easy for the man who pursues her to have illusions, only to feel that if she tries harder, she will definitely be able to hold the beauty, but the result is very cruel, in the process of this pursuit, she falls deeper and deeper, and then she is moved to death by herself, and in the end she has nothing.

It's just that a woman can still show an understatement, as if she is not wrong with anything, and she has not completely rejected it at the beginning, which is already merciful, okay.

However, when a woman really meets a man she likes, how can she bear to let the man pursue it hard, maybe the bolder ones will chase it directly.

All in all, Hang Shuitao became friends with Wang Defu at first sight in his sincere visit and Wang Defu's sincere reception, which laid the groundwork for the cooperation between the two in the future.

Hang Shuitao also told Wang Defu that if Wang Defu came to the magic capital in the future, then he would definitely do his best to be a landlord and entertain Wang Defu well.

For a senior editor like Hang Shuitao, his salary is also generous enough, and he also has a lot of commissions for every red article he digs out.

It was the good relationship between the two that made Wang Defu recommend the work "Dragon Head" to Hang Shuitao, he didn't want Hang Shuitao to give this work any preferential treatment, play tricks like unspoken rules, but just hope that this work will be treated more fairly.

Wang Defu didn't hint at all that the real creator of "Dragon Head" was himself, because he felt that if Hang Shuitao really knew such a fact, then maybe other works competing for the "Magic Capital Popular Award" would suffer unfair treatment.

Wang Defu is indeed an idealist in this regard, and he always hopes that everyone can evaluate each work more objectively and fairly, and not be affected by the author's own fame.

However, his hope is indeed more unrealistic, articles such a thing, maybe the level gap is large, you can also intuitively judge who is good and who is bad, but if the level gap is not big, it really depends on personal preferences, and then of course also depends on the author's own fame, the greater the author's fame, the more he learns to have extra points.

Hang Shuitao, as a member of the "Magic Capital Popular Award" award committee, in his mind, the status of this award is much higher than that of the "Zhang Yuanji New Writer Award".

Because this award is indeed for almost all popular writers in the literary world of the magic capital, of course, those popular writers who have won this grand prize will definitely not be cheeky enough to participate in this award.

If it can continue to win the gold medal, it is okay, at least it maintains the dignity of the previous writers, but it has little effect on the growth of the fame of famous popular writers, and its relatively generous bonus will not be very attractive to famous popular writers.

Therefore, it is a thankless task for a famous popular writer to participate in this big award, after all, who said that the works of famous popular writers must be better than those popular writers who are not yet famous, but have strong strength?

Therefore, the authors who participate in this award are basically popular writers who are not very famous, but have absolute strength, which makes the gold content of this award very high.

And every year, the gold medal-winning works of the "Magic Capital Popular Award" can sell well and win the love of many readers, which undoubtedly proves the gold content of this award from the side, and readers obviously recognize this award very much.

Compared with this "Magic Capital Popular Award", the "Zhang Yuanji New Writer Award" seems to be insufficient in gold content, after all, the gold medal winner of the former can sell well for a while, but the latter can only have a chance to publish a short story in the "Monthly News".

This year's "Magic Capital Popular Awards", Hang Shuitao, a senior editor who has no newcomer authors in his eyes, pays attention to the two works, undoubtedly "The Beauty of the Country" by Chang Hate Song, and Xu Tianxiao's "Love Lost Demon Capital", if he thinks nothing else, this gold medal should be born in these two works.

It wasn't until he finally opened "The Dragon's Head" recommended by Wang Defu on this day......
