Chapter 20 Magazine Listing
Ling Jingsu looked at the familiar handwriting on the paper, and then thought of Wang Defu, who was superior in appearance and conversation before, and was a little flustered for a while, she only felt that she wanted to understand the other party more deeply, but she couldn't let go of the arrogance and reserve in her heart.
She definitely didn't want to admit that she would be easily touched by a man, she just told herself that there are so many talented men in this world, and now there is such a thing as Wang Defu, there is nothing to care about, but when she thinks of the other party's handsome appearance, she realized that there are many talented men, but there are really not many men as handsome as him!
Ling Jingsu couldn't help but taste "Rain Alley" a few times, and wanted to find faults, saying that she was not a sad girl like Lilac at all, she was obviously very cold, very narcissistic in her bones, and very goal-oriented and ambitious, so that she would not be confused and sad.
But for some reason, she thought of her own age and Wang Defu's age, and the other party was still a college student...... It seems to be very popular to support college students now.
Ling Jingsu blushed inexplicably, then suddenly woke up, patted her cheek vigorously, and secretly scolded herself for being so shameless for an old woman like herself, she looked at the poem in her hand in a daze, and sighed inexplicably, just like a girl with a grudge like a lilac.
Even in the later life, Ben San Girl, who clamored that she liked Xiao Xianrou, really wanted her to be with Xiao Xianrou who was less than twenty years old without pressure, then she might be cowardly, let alone this era?
The feminism of this era is far from being as good as that of later generations, and most women are still in a state of oppression, which can be seen from the popular trend of marrying aunts' wives.
Ling Jingsu put this poem away very preciously, and decided that the next time she saw Wang Defu, she would ask him if he wanted to submit this poem for him, or simply publish it in "Red Rose", and the manuscript fee would be preferential.
Ling Jingsu, who put her mind on work, will soon be calmed down by the stirring heartstrings, she is not a teenage girl after all, and there has never been a shortage of suitors around her, it is impossible to completely fascinate her with a poem.
Ling Jingsu is in full swing preparing for the release of the next issue of "Red Rose", the sales of "Red Rose" were only five or six thousand before, this time she directly asked the printing house to print 10,000 copies, doubling it, she felt that such advance preparation should be enough.
Ling Jingsu is this issue of "Red Rose", it can be said that she is heartbroken, she deliberately made the cover of this issue colorful, she is still a foreign girl, looking at this cover, maybe she will think of "Red Rose" as the kind of beauty pictorial magazine specially for men.
This is undoubtedly very deceptive, but it has to be said that if you want the magazine to sell well, you must use some means, otherwise the wine will be afraid of deep alleys.
A week later, Red Rose, a literary magazine packaged like an erotic magazine, was finally released!
The price of the magazine is not expensive, as long as fifty copper, excluding the cost of thirty copper, that is to say, if you sell a magazine, you can have a profit of twenty copper, if ten thousand magazines are sold, the net profit is 200,000 copper, and one thousand coppers is equal to one silver dollar, so the net profit is 200 silver dollars.
It turned out that "Red Rose" only had sales of five or six thousand, and the net profit was less than one hundred silver dollars, and she had to pay the author's manuscript fee, the salary of the magazine editor, the artist and other staff, it can be said that Ling Jingsu was running a magazine at a loss, but fortunately she did have money, and she didn't care if she lost a few issues.
The price of the magazine is not expensive, but it is definitely more expensive than the price of the newspaper, there is a song called "Selling Newspaper Song" There is such a lyric "Today's news is really good, seven copper plates buy two newspapers", which describes the price of newspapers in this era, or the kind of newspaper with very few pages.
Magazines have much more content than newspapers, and they are a little more durable, but unless they are best-selling magazines, there are certainly not as many people who buy them, and fifty copper plates is seven times more than seven copper plates.
Magazines are also rarely sold by newsboys, but in newsstands and bookstores.
In Soochow University, there is a large bookstore, there are also many newsstands, and there are basically no shortage of best-selling literary magazines in the country, and the new works of great writers will also be on the shelves as soon as possible.
Liu Qingshan, the roommate who helped Wang Defu get the mail last time, came to the bookstore on campus this day, he didn't come to buy literary magazines, he was not very interested in literature, in fact, he studied law, which is the signature major of Soochow University.
His favorite magazines, of course, are pictorial magazines, such as "Liangyou Pictorial", and it is much easier to appreciate the various beautiful pictures on it than to read the text.
In the process of searching for "Liangyou Pictorial" in the bookstore, he saw a new issue of "Red Rose", such a very niche literary magazine, and the bookstore in the school did not stock much, only five copies, and he didn't know if it could be sold out.
In fact, the overall feeling of this issue of the magazine is very delicate and material, the back is all red, and it is dotted with roses, which can be regarded as further strengthening the reader's impression of "Red Rose".
At this time, the magazine was not sealed in plastic packaging, so you could read it directly in the bookstore.
Liu Qingshan opened this issue of "Red Rose" with curiosity, and saw the masterpiece "Love and Sex" by Ms. Yiren, who was embarrassed by the magazine as the "strongest newcomer writer", and said that after reading it, you can understand what is called the unbearable lightness of life, and its English name is ready - "The Unbearable Lightness of Being"
Liu Qingshan didn't want to understand what it meant to be unbearable lightness of life, but as soon as he flipped through it, he saw that this work seemed to be writing about things that make readers like to applaud love, and the description was indeed very graphic!
Liu Qingshan quickly closed the magazine, looked left and right like a thief, and clamped the magazine under his arm as if he had found a treasure, and then found his favorite "Liangyou Pictorial" as quickly as possible, and finally took the two magazines to check out, a total of two hundred bronze texts.
Of course, the full-color "Liangyou Pictorial" is much more expensive than "Red Rose", and its production cost is also high, but for Liu Qingshan, who can enter Soochow University, this is all small money, and it is good to be mentally satisfied, I hope "Red Rose" will not disappoint him.
