Chapter 157: Manuscript Publication in One Stop

After a few months of running-in, now his father Tang Hui is more comfortable with his own mess.

Every time I go to the provincial capital to buy goods, it is a fixed process, which one to go to first and then which one, which store to choose which things, how to add new products to the purchase list, and how to negotiate with others.

After purchasing the goods, he is already familiar with how to send them back to the county and how to distribute them to several stores.

Overall, although it is not yet standardized, the standardization work has been preliminarily completed.

It's time to expand further.

Expansion is to recruit franchisees, the county is not big, there are three identical stores, it has been basically saturated, at most at the door of the third middle school to recruit another one, the entrance of the primary school is not necessary, there is no purchasing power.

More franchisees need to expand in other cities.

At present, the best place to expand is naturally to expand to the provincial capital.

There are dozens of middle schools in the provincial capital, and if you open one at the entrance of each school, you can open dozens of branches.

Tang Mingyao told his father about preparing for expansion that day, and asked him to make some preliminary preparations first, and when it came to the weekend, the father and son went to the provincial capital to carry out preliminary advertising.

Before that, he had a few days of classes to attend.

Monday.

When he was with Luo Wenxi, Tang Mingyao asked her, "Do you think your mother loves you?" ”

Luo Wenxi said: "Love, right? ”

"Love, huh? Can't be sure what it means? Love is love, not love is not love, think about it carefully, is there an accurate answer. ”

"Intellectually, I think she loves me, but I can't say why, I don't think she loves me that much, at least not as much as my brother."

"Do you think your parents will abandon you?"

Luo Wenxi didn't know why he asked these questions, and thought for a while: "I saw a very interesting question in the book the day before yesterday, that is, if your mother and your girlfriend fall into the water at the same time, which one will you save first?" ”

Tang Mingyao: "......"

What does this have to do with his problem?

Luo Wenxi said again: "I'm thinking, if my brother and I fall into the water at the same time, my parents will definitely not hesitate to save him first; But if it was just me who fell into the water alone, they would have saved me too. So, I don't know how to answer your question......"

Tang Mingyao frowned when he heard this.

Although the girl has long forgotten what happened to her back then, subconsciously, she still knows that her parents' love for her is not as deep as her brother's, and the childhood trauma she hides in her subconscious is deeply rooted and has not healed over the years.

Tang Mingyao really didn't know how to solve this problem for a while, and thought of some measures, but he couldn't get it very accurately.

It's a pity that Mr. Xiaoyu from Tianya has not been online, otherwise you can ask him about countermeasures.

It seems that this matter can only be slowly figured out.

Two days later, Wang Dong, the editor of the martial arts edition, sent him a reply.

After reading his beginning, their editor-in-chief hesitated for a long time, and finally gave up on his manuscript.

There are two reasons for this.

The first is that the martial arts version of "Ancient Legends" has just become independent, and now is the time to consolidate the market.

The second is that their martial arts version just received two long-form serialized submissions last month, both of which have already been drafted, and the serialization time has been scheduled for next year. If this article is also passed, I don't know when I have to queue up, if I temporarily cut in line, I have to squeeze out what people have already set, and the operation is troublesome.

After weighing many parties, he finally refused politely.

However, Wang Dong said that their editor-in-chief was still very optimistic about this novel, and took the initiative to recommend it to the original editorial department of "Ancient Legends".

After reviewing it over there, I didn't hesitate much and decided to serialize him.

The price is 150 yuan for 1,000 words, and when the story that is now being serialized is about to end, he will be ranked, and it is estimated that it will not be available until May.

It's just that before the official serialization, he needs to submit a 100,000-word manuscript first, and the editorial department has to confirm the quality of his article.

This result is similar to what Tang Mingyao imagined before, and it is more perfect.

He expressed his gratitude to Wang Dong, added the new editor of "Ancient Legends" who was in charge of him, discussed various specific matters, and then saved the manuscript and waited for it to be serialized in May.

It was finalized here, Tang Mingyao suddenly remembered that the simplified Chinese of "Martial Arts Supreme" was about to come out, why didn't anyone find himself to come out of the traditional Chinese this time.

Last time, the influence of his novel was not as great as it is now, and the editor of Xinchang took the initiative to find the door, and this time it has been serialized for more than half a year, and the influence on the Internet has long surpassed before, and no one asked him, it's too abnormal.

Tang Mingyao opened his mailbox, found the record of contacting the traditional editor last year, and sent an email to ask about the traditional Chinese publication of "Martial Arts Supreme".

It didn't take long for the reply from there.

The gist of the email is: I have left my job and am not working in Xinchang now, please contact the current Xinchang editor for the receipt of manuscripts in mainland China, and the email address is ********.

Tang Mingyao: "......"

Do you want to be so real?

complained a sentence, honestly according to the email address, sent a manuscript of 200,000 words to wait for review, and explained in the email that a novel had been published in Xinchang before, and now the full text of this book is about one million words.

I didn't wait for the weekend, but I got a reply.

"You can approve the manuscript, buy out, and the buyout price is the same as the previous book. If the follow-up 800,000 manuscripts are of similar quality to this, they will be bought out at the same price. ”

Tang Mingyao pinched his chin and groaned.

At this price, he won't be given a penny up.

He doesn't know the market situation over there, but there must be a market for "Martial Arts Supreme" over there, there is no doubt about it.

After all, there were so many upgraded stream routines in a certain point in the previous life, many of which were produced in batches by the studio, and they could still occupy the top few places in the Wanwan book market for a long time, which shows that this set is very open there.

Xinchang only gave him this buyout money, and he was a little dissatisfied now.

There is no shortage of money to spend, so why buy it out and slowly find other companies to contribute.

replied to the meaning he wanted to divide into the past, Tang Mingyao waited for Xinchang's reply again, and at the same time found a new publishing house to submit.

First knock on a few industry editors on his QQ, and ask if there are any traditional publishing resources, anyway, he now has some cards, everyone will sell him a little face, and his connections don't have to be in vain.

Yang Bing said no, but the newly added editor of "Ancient Legends" gave him the editing email addresses of several traditional publishing houses.

If you don't say it, vote it next to each other.

It's Saturday.

Tang Mingyao couldn't wait for a reply from these publishing houses, and stepped on the train to the provincial capital with his father.

"Dad, we have to do a lot of things this time, I took next week's leave, plus two days this weekend, the time is tight and the task is heavy, this time we have to work harder."

Tang Hui said: "You tell me that it's hard? When I was working outside, you didn't see what hard work was, and now it's nothing. Let's go, I'm afraid that you can't endure hardship, what's wrong? ”
