It was fast forward to Monday.

Li Jun, editor of the Automobile Branch of the Machinery Industry Press, asked me to meet at a McDonald's in Huilongguan.

"Your car articles are very good," Li said straight to the point, "easy to understand, concise text, novel form, if made into a car book, the sales will definitely be good!" ”

"But I haven't ever made a car book!" I'm a little unsure about it.

"It's okay," Li Bian said with a smile, "You first compiled the '10 big' of automobiles you wrote into a book, and I have thought of the title of the book, which is called "Driving Secrets That Can't Be Learned in Driving School", how about it?" ”

"Then I'll make a sample chapter for the next two days!" I said it seriously.

"The market for automotive books is huge right now," Li continued, "and there are few people involved in it now, and if you take the lead, you will definitely be a big success!" ”

My heart fluctuated.

I decided to enter the automotive book market.

I'm going to be the first author to eat crabs or eat tomatoes in the car book market.

I divided the book "Driving Secrets That Can't Be Learned in Driving School" into three chapters according to "time", "location" and "people". In the "Time of Days" chapter, it is mainly aimed at driving skills and methods in various special environments; In the "Geographical Advantage" chapter, it is mainly aimed at driving skills and methods on various roads; In the "People" chapter, it mainly focuses on various driving skills and methods related to people.

My classification is unmatched in the automotive book market.

I passed the sample chapter to Li Bian through QQ.

After reading it, Editor Li praised it greatly.

"Since this topic is very good," I suggested, "it is better for us to make this '10 big' book series, this series of books is mainly for buying a car, driving, maintaining a car, fuel-saving, health care, emergency and other aspects, and compiling various skills and methods in a simple and clear '10 big' form, gathering the experience of car owners, Haina experts, and then with vivid and interesting illustrations, so that readers can quickly grasp the secrets of buying a car, driving, maintaining a car, saving fuel, health care, and emergency in a relaxed and pleasant reading experience. It also makes this set a high-quality reading material worthy of reading and collecting by the majority of car owners, friends and car drivers. ”

"That's a great idea!" Li Bian said happily.

"I even have the title of the book in mind," I said confidently, "it's called "Buying a Car Secrets that Prospective Car Owners Should Know", "Driving Tips That Can't Be Learned in Driving School", "Car Maintenance Tips That Repair Shops Don't Tell", "Fuel-saving Secrets That Most People Don't Know", "Health Care Tips That Car Owners Can't Ignore" and "Emergency Tips That Motorists Can't Forget". ”

"Good! Good! Good! Editor Li said excitedly, "This set of books will definitely be published, and the sales will be very good!" ”

"Then I'll get to work," I said excitedly, "if there's a problem, we'll communicate at any time!" ”

Li Bian smiled.

I was so excited that I called and told Ye Qian the news that the car book topic had been approved.

"Then I'll have to talk to you!" Ye Qian said on the phone.

"But it's not the weekend!" I reminded.

"Today is an exception," Ye Qian smiled, "Let's meet in Tongchun Garden!" ”

"The town's dish 'squirrel fish' is good!" I said happily.

"That's right!" Ye Qian said seriously, "When we met there, we just wanted to eat fish together!" ”

"Okay," I said happily, "I'll go first, and you can come over after work!" ”

"Okay!" Ye Qian smiled and hung up the phone.

I was so happy and happy.

After I packed up and dressed up, I started walking towards the October Building, which is located at No. 14 A on Xinjiekou Outer Street.

In the evening, Ye Qian came with Nana.

"Smell the fragrance and get off the horse, stop the smell," I said to Ye Qian with a smile, "It's the squirrel mandarin fish here!" ”

"Tongchun Garden is the best at cooking river fresh dishes," Ye Qian smiled, "Famous dishes such as fish, shrimp and crab are coming out one after another." As soon as I eat river fresh, I think of the days when I fished, fished for shrimp and hunted turtledoves with you in Yangxian County, Hanzhong! ”

"It was so idle back then!" I sighed.

Ye Qian smiled and nodded.

We walked hand in hand into the Tongchunyuan Hotel.

"Let's order a squirrel mandarin fish and a squirrel paste first," Ye Qian thought about after sitting down, "and then we can ask for noodles and snacks!" ”

"Just look at it," I laughed, "just don't waste it!" ”

"Do you know Gongsun Yi?" Ye Qian asked me after ordering.

"Yes," I said, "he was the prime minister of the state of Lu in the Spring and Autumn period. ”

"He likes to eat fish very much," Ye Qian said solemnly as she looked at me, "and people in China are vying to buy fish for him, and he refuses them all." ”

"Why?" I asked, puzzled.

"His brother asked him the same thing," Ye Qian said with a smile, "and asked him why he didn't want fish if he liked to eat fish." ”

"What did Gongsun Yi say?" I asked with interest.

"He said," Ye Qian smiled, "It is precisely because I like to eat fish that I don't accept fish from others." If you accept someone else's fish, you must do what others want, and you may break the law; If you break the law, you will be removed from the prime minister; If you don't have the prime minister, who will send me fish? If you don't accept fish and don't get rid of the prime minister, you can use your income to buy fish for yourself for a long time, even if you don't ask for fish from others. ”

"Surely you want to tell me something!" I said with a smile.

"Of course," Ye Qian said softly, "Think about it! ”

"You can't be corrupt or bribed," I guessed, "but what does that have to do with me?" I want to take bribes, but I can't do that! ”

"It's related to 'advertorials'!" Ye Qian reminded.

"Oh!" It dawned on me, "I see, you're trying to remind me that I can't be greedy for small profits!" ”

"Yes," Ye Qian said earnestly, "the embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in the anthill." Gongsun Yi is in a high position as the prime minister, and his mind is very sober, he is far-sighted from such a small thing as eating other people's fish, and dialectically believes that as long as he does not eat other people's fish, he can really eat his own fish for a long time. Therefore, all aspirants must be cautious about the fame and fortune at their fingertips. ”

"Then I'm not going to write car advertorials," I said seriously, "and concentrate on that series of books for car owners!" ”

"That's right!" Ye Qian said happily, "In front of Xiaoli, there is too much greed, and the result is often led by the nose." In particular, some people who have achieved a certain status and success, because their rights and influence are beyond ordinary people, people generally want something from them, and some people with ill intentions will naturally welcome them and do what they like. If you become a tool of others because of greed for small profits, then it is inevitable that you will break the law and discipline, and the final result will be to lose everything you had before. ”

"I know," I said seriously, "car advertorials are actually advertisements, although they are not illegal, they are not legal!" ”

"Actually, love is the same," Ye Qian said with clear eyes, "If you covet some small fame and small profits, you will end up embarrassed!" ”

"Give an example," I laughed, "or tell me a story!" ”

"Do you know George Sand?" Ye Qian asked softly.

"A famous French writer of the 19th century," I said with a laugh, "she is said to have had many lovers!" ”

"Let's see how she became famous," Ye Qianling said sharply, "when she was 18 years old, she didn't write an article; After meeting the young poet Hule, he co-wrote a book with him, but he rarely wrote himself; After independently completing the first manuscript of the book "Indiana", he immediately became the lover of Saint-Pévey and Raduche, the most influential literary critics in France at that time. After the publication of "Indiana", Radouch exalted George Sand to the sky, saying that her life was full of tragedies that even Shakespeare could not write. Not to be outdone, Saint-Pévey said that George Sand would make everyone dizzy and mad, and that she would bring dazzling brilliance to French literature! ”

"George Sand had many lovers," I said seriously, "and her 'menu' of lovers were: the famous French painter Delacroixt, the Hungarian pianist Franz Liszt, the French genius poet Muse, the great Polish musician Chopin, the French literary critics Saint-Pévé and Raduche, the young French businessman Hules Sandot, the famous French writer Flaubert, the French literary giant Balzac, the famous French playwrights Alexandre Dumas and Dumas, the Russian writer - Dostoevsky and so on. ”

"Their love can be called utilitarian love!" Ye Qian said with a smile.

"Yes," I said seriously, "utilitarian love is a true lie, like a lying flower with a splendid branch and a gecko with a broken tail to survive, who does not hesitate to sacrifice his body, dignity, and even his future in order to deceive and fool others in order to satisfy his desires and achieve some purpose." This kind of love, because there is a lot of utilitarianism mixed in it, is easy to deteriorate and become tasteful, and people have to doubt the nature of love. ”

"However, then again," Ye Qian smiled, "utilitarian love is mixed. Some people believe that everyone has the right to choose their own happiness and destiny, and everyone has different standards for measuring happiness and gains and losses, and utilitarian love is understandable, especially in a society where materialism is rampant and fame and fortune are contested; Some people, on the contrary, believe that utilitarian love is shameful and despised, because under the beautiful cloak of love, there are too many ugly desires and greedy demands. ”

"Is it off topic for us to talk?" I asked Ye Qian with a smile.

"I ran a little bit," Ye Qian smiled slightly, "I didn't run far, I can catch up with it by walking a few steps!" ”
