The plot progressed to the middle of this meeting,

Ji Zhuo stopped today's code word work.

Out of context, as an author, it's always self-taught.

Although Ji Zhuo really has no need to break the chapter, but the plot happens to progress here.

The sky outside the house was getting dark.

Ji Zhuo corrected the typos in the chapter he wrote today, and directly cut it to the author's background and sent it out.

By the way, looking at today's data,

The collection has risen a lot less than yesterday,

The increase in referral votes is also much lower.

This means that most readers have collected it and have not read it much.

Maybe it's because his new book doesn't have a lot of words, or maybe it's because there are a lot of old readers who aren't very interested in the subject matter of this new book.

Although the tastes of online readers are mixed, it is also difficult to see themes that do not meet their tastes.

The situation was basically as Ji Zhuo expected.

Stable mentality, not sad or happy,

Ji Zhuo glanced at it and closed the backstage.

Then turn off the code word software and deduct the computer.

"Gollum ......"

The temple reminded him that it was time to eat,

Since he woke up at noon, he hadn't eaten today,

Dinner is another three-in-one dinner.

got up, and Ji Zhuo walked outside the house.

……

"Uncle Xu, I'm going back after a walk."

"Ah, go for a walk after eating, Xiao Ji, you go out to eat here."

"Yes. Eh, Aunt Chen, take your grandson out to play. ”

"This stinky boy, I can't eat a meal, and I want to run out to play again after two bites."

"Children, they all like to play."

Going downstairs from his residence and passing through the community, Ji Zhuo also greeted some uncles and aunts in the community.

It seems that there is a psychological advantage that I will move again after living here for a few months anyway, and I may not be able to see it again in the future.

Ji Zhuo went to live in one place, and it was easy to get acquainted with these uncles and aunts.

With this psychological advantage, he dares to say hello to the uncles and aunts he has met.

But when I went out, the greeting stopped,

Then I touched my phone and swiped my phone from time to time while walking along the side of the road.

"Edit: In?"

Well?

Editors are working overtime every day?

"Clumsy and extraordinary: in."

Although there is a kind of want to shake off, don't ask me if I don't have something to say directly in the emoji,

But after thinking about it, forget it.

……

“…… Sister Qian, aren't you leaving? ”

“…… What's the matter, I'll flip through the new books to see if there's anything more valuable. ”

Editorial Department of Shiyue.com Headquarters Building.

Just came out of the conference room,

The editorial office was a little noisy, and someone was packing up their things and preparing to drag their tired and heavy steps off work.

Someone sat back down at the desk, holding his head and continuing to toss in front of the computer.

The editor in charge also pulled out his stool, sat down, sent a message to Ji Zhuo, and then looked up at the slightly noisy office,

Half of this company meeting was about the previous editor-in-chief who revealed the news to him.

The construction of the theater channel and the above documents, the collection of the National Library brought about changes in the wind direction and arrangement.

According to the previous plan, their editorial team launched Ji Zhuo's new book and several other good books to make this benchmark, and several other editorial teams also recommended a few books.

Just go through the process, the editor-in-chief must have been clear before, so he naturally agreed.

At the same time, it is explained that some additional recommended resources will be taken out to recommend these books.

The other half of the meeting was about another thing.

Recently, the novel websites in the second echelon are frantically grabbing market share.

has brought a lot of pressure to the first reading novel network as the only one in the first echelon.

Naturally, this pressure was then exerted on the editors of the editorial team.

Let them stay as old authors, and try not to let the loss of authors lead to the loss of readers,

At the same time, it is necessary to discover some new authors, and the website will hold more activities.

Listening to the editors, including pen and ink, are a little anxious, helpless,

Keep the old author, how to stay.

If others don't want to post new books on your website, you can still force others to send them, open a small account and slip away.

As for discovering valuable new authors, how else can they be discovered, and read the submissions more often? You can also see that a flower can't come out.

It also depends on the website to hold more activities to see if it can attract some new authors and valuable new authors.

However, now it is said that it is going to hold some new essay and author contests, but it is still in the oral stage, and there is not even a shadow.

Thinking about it, Bimo shook his head,

Fortunately, he still has some authors under him who have good grades like 'Era Coincidents' and can withstand it.

Otherwise, he would probably be even more anxious as a responsible editor now.

Bow your head,

Seeing that Ji Zhuo has already replied to the message,

The pen and ink sent out the words that had been prepared before,

"Edit: Next week's big closure push, pay attention to keep updating, and also maintain quality, all can be changed, the main thing is not to break the update."

"Clumsy and Extraordinary: ......"

Ji Zhuo, who was on his way to dinner, saw the news from the editor again,

It's just the feeling......

Although he has already seen it a little, it is all earned horizontally and vertically anyway.

But seeing that it was a big seal push as soon as it came up, he was still a little speechless.

This book is bigger than the recommendation of a book, which makes Ji Zhuo's mood a little complicated.

"Clumsy and extraordinary: is this a test of the waters?"

"Edit: Sort of.

Clumsy and extraordinary: Editor, although I did well in the last book, I don't need to push the big seal as soon as this book comes up. You can't be under a lot of pressure like this, editor.

Edit: Just a recommendation, what's the pressure. ”

Ji Zhuo's mood became more complicated,

seems to remember the time when I used to pounce on three books in a row,

Then I remembered that he had planned to write such a novel, and by the way, he would take a million from the system.

Although he wanted to write something meaningful from the beginning, no one disliked money.

It's just that the mood is complicated.

The editor's words didn't stop, and then another message came.

"Editor: In addition to the quality and grade foundation of your previous two books, the most important thing is that your book is very well written. The quality is good, and the plot development is good.

Editor: Didn't I say before that the new setting of the theater channel always has to come up with a work that carries the Ding, otherwise it is not appropriate to open a new channel without making a sound. ”

Looking at the editor's message again,

Ji Zhuo's mood was more complicated.

And with yourself, this is eating the version of the dividend?

"Clumsy and extraordinary: So the big guy is going to use my book as a new channel ......?

Editor: I have the potential to become the new channel's leading work, and the style is suitable in all aspects, I am quite optimistic, and the editor-in-chief is also quite optimistic. ”

Boy

I haven't been so optimistic about my book myself, but you do.

Ji Zhuo called a good guy, but it wasn't too uncomfortable,

If there are really a lot of recommendations, maybe the manuscript fee of this book will make him get some blood back.

It's just a little inexplicable.

And Bimo also mentioned the matter of the theater channel to Ji Zhuo,

There is no mention of more documents,

First, it is inconvenient to say it clearly, and second, he believes that Ji Zhuo is such an author who can grasp the market reaction very well.

When the wind direction began to change on the first reading network, he knew it himself.

"Edit: So you don't have to worry too much about recommendations, just make sure the quality and updates are good."

"Clumsy and Extraordinary: ......"

Ji Zhuo was a little silent, and what could he say back in the end,

I can only thank you.

"Clumsy and extraordinary: thank you, big guy."

I don't even want any recommendations, you have to give them, what can I do.

Put away your phone,

Ji Zhuo turned around and entered the roadside restaurant,

He remembered that the restaurant seemed to taste good when the meat was stir-fried.

……

“…… Uncle Yu, I'll push you to sit in the front. The park is right in front. ”

“…… Got to the park? ”

"Well, yes, it's in the park. Uncle Yu, do you hear the sound of birdsong? ”

Yucheng.

The old man is in a wheelchair, and the man in his thirties, who is a nurse, pushes the wheelchair.

Follow the walking path outside the park fence, walk slowly to the nearest park gate, and talk to the old man in a wheelchair from time to time.

The old man sat in a wheelchair, pushed by someone, with his eyes closed,

It seemed to make him feel that he couldn't see what was in front of him only because he had his eyes closed, not because he was blind.

“…… All I heard was a candy gourd seller in front of me, and a child clamoring for an adult to buy it. ”

The old man smiled and answered again.

"There is a sugar gourd seller in front of me, pushing a three-wheeled stall, right at the entrance of the park, surrounded by a few children. Uncle Yu, your ears are so good. ”

The nurse looked up and described the scene ahead for the old man.

"That's why this ear can still be used......"

The old man smiled at first, then sighed slightly and fell silent.

The old man was silent, and when he opened his eyes, there was still darkness in front of him, or more ethereal than the darkness, and he could not see anything.

He was not paralyzed, but blind.

But when traveling, I can still only sit in a wheelchair.

He'll use a cane, but he'll not use it.

Compared to the eyes, the cane is long, but it is still too close to the places it can reach.

When you can't see things, when your hands can't touch your surroundings, there is always a strong sense of unease.

Or rather, something else he was a little afraid of.

The caregiver pushes the old man in the wheelchair,

Walking through the somewhat noisy park gate,

The old man couldn't help but turn his head in the direction of the noisy children, but naturally he still couldn't see anything.

A few children next to them turned their heads curiously when they saw the old man in a wheelchair passing by them.

"Chirp...... Squeaky ......"

The old man was pushed into the park,

The surroundings fell silent, he heard the birdsong in the park, felt the wind blowing through the branches and leaves of the park,

He couldn't help but look up.

"Uncle Yu, we're in the pavilion in the park."

“…… Hmmm......"

The old man answered, lowered his head again, and paused again.

There was silence, and then there was silence for a while, and the old man turned his head a little more,

“…… Last night, I heard a book called "Seven Days of Hell." You put it on the bookshelf for me? ”

The old man asked suddenly.

"Yes. Uncle Yu. Uncle Yu, didn't you read another book by this author called "Mortal Cultivation of Immortals" before, and you said that it was well written. ”

"A day or two ago, this author wrote a new book, "Seven Days of Hell", and I will help you put it on the shelf."

The nurse replied.

“…… Well. ”

The old man nodded, he was still a little impressed.

After a pause, the old man asked again,

"He's not done with the book yet?"

"It should still be serialized."

"I'll help you take a look at Uncle Yu...... Well, two more chapters were updated today. Uncle Yu, do you want to listen to it now? ”

The old man paused, then nodded.

Reaching out and fumbling around, he pulled the headphones out of his pocket.

“…… Then Uncle Yu, I'll help you open it. ”

“…… When you can't see your surroundings and can't touch your surroundings, you always feel a strong sense of unease. ”

The old man's headphones came out reading the latest chapters,

The old man didn't make a sound, but his hand couldn't help but tighten on the armrest of the wheelchair.

It's quiet in the park,

The old man's wheelchair was parked under the pavilion in the park.

The nurse knew that the old man didn't want to be disturbed at this time, so he stood aside, took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and raised his head to look at the old man from time to time.

After a while,

Today's updated chapter has been read,

But the old man didn't take off the headphones on his ears,

Instead, he still paused, not knowing what to think.

“…… Are there blind paths in the park? ”

The old man asked suddenly.

"Yes, Uncle Yu."

was asked abruptly, the nurse was stunned, and then hurriedly responded,

"Give me the cane. I got up and walked. ”

“…… Good...... Okay, Uncle Yu. ”

The nurse hurriedly responded twice and handed the blind cane pinned to the side of the wheelchair to the old man.

The old man took it, and then slowly got up from the wheelchair with the support of the nurse.

There was no blind road in the pavilion, and the nurse helped the old man to the road in the park before finding the blind road.

The old man swept with a blind cane and took a few steps forward.

A person walks forward with a blind cane, as if he is moving forward in a world where there is only oneself.

What can be perceived is such a small circle that only the blind cane can reach.

After walking for a while, the old man stopped.

“…… Help me give my son a call. ”

There is something strange about the caregivers, and the elderly rarely do these things on weekdays.

But he hurriedly called the old man.

“…… Dad, what's wrong? ”

The voice of a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties came from the other end of the phone.

“…… What's going on in the company? ”

"What else, according to your previous plan, Dad, you are going to try to enter the animation industry. I'm digging people everywhere, all of them are masters, and I feel like I can't straighten my waist when I whisper here. ”

"Before, Dad, you left me the big bag of tea in the office, Dad, you remember, I was taken away by a composer."

The middle-aged man complained on the phone,

Listening to the phone, the old man who was originally in a low mood couldn't help but smile a little.

"Won't you open it?"

The old man joked.

"That's not good, remember what you taught, Dad, people are capable people, we all rely on other people's abilities to eat, then others are masters, and respect should be deserved." Tea go away, I remember Dad, you still have a pack there, change Ming'er, I'll come over Dad, you will give me two or two...... By the way, Dad, what's the matter with your call? ”

“…… I recommend this novel to you. ”

The old man restrained his smile and got down to business,

"It's called a mortal cultivator. It's a novel on the web. I've seen ...... Listened to it. Nicely written. You can buy it for the right time. ”

"IP Adaptation?"

The middle-aged man listened on the other end of the phone, pausing and slightly surprised.

"Hmm. This book is good. Even if you don't need it now, you won't lose by buying the copyright first and holding it in your hands. ”

In business,

Although there were other reasons for his idea, the old man could not give money for nothing.

The main thing is that he is really optimistic about the copyright value of this "Mortal Cultivation of Immortals".

The main thing about this copyright value is not from the achievements of "Mortal Cultivation of Immortals" itself.

What's even more important is that the old man is optimistic about the subsequent development of this author.

Buy it now at a relatively low price, absolutely not at a loss.

“…… Okay, I'll check it out later. IP adaptation, as our first work in the animation industry, is indeed a good choice. ”

“…… That's right, Dad. We're doing a good job in film and television production, do you think the animation industry is really going to be very rich? ”

“…… The signs of recovery in the animation industry have been evident in the past two years. ”

“…… Okay, I see, Dad. Dad, do you have anything else to do? ”

“…… If you have time, you can check out another new book by this author, "Seven Days of Hell", and see him...... There is no adaptation value. ”

After saying this, the old man handed the phone to the caregiver and asked him to help hang up.

The old man stood there again, a little silent.

"...... 'Seven Days of Hell'?"

Another place in Yucheng, in an office building.

The old man's son ended the phone and was looking at the phone, chewing on the title of the book in his mouth.

Although his dad called to ask him to buy the rights to another copy,

But listening to his father's phone call, the last novel mentioned by Yikou was the reason for his father's call.
