Chapter 570: Book Out!

For the Chang Director in front of him, He Yun still admires it.

Over the years, although the Modu Art Film Studio has been much worse than before, it is still the leader of domestic animation, just because in the past few years, the state no longer supports it, so both the quality and quantity of animation are not as good as before.

For this reason, the leadership of the Modu Art Film Studio also understood that this was not the way to go, so they put all their hopes on the animation they are currently producing - "Baolian Lantern".

As an animated film created by the Magic City Art Film Studio, whether it is the animation style, shooting techniques, or plot, it is on par with Hollywood in the United States, and the creative team has used most of the elite creative staff of the film studio, and it took several years to complete the production of this cartoon, which shows how detailed this animated film is.

But after all, because the team of the Magic City Art Film Studio is not as good as before, the creation of this animated film has always been intermittent.

This time, Chang Guangxi came to He Yun, and he also came to ask for help with a glimmer of hope.

However, He Yun finally refused.

The reason is actually very simple, the requirements put forward by this director are still the same as last time, but the price paid has not increased much, although the other party is a state-owned factory, but Yunyi Animation is not "grasping" at will now.

Besides, now is the era of market economy, if there is no certain benefit, Yunyi Animation will not be able to suffer.

What's more, He Yun felt that they didn't have the manpower to support each other.

Because until now, the original script of the sci-fi animation project has not been finalized, so how can there be time to help others.

Therefore, it is destined that this regular guide has nothing to gain from this trip.

He Yun rejected him directly.

But what surprised He Yun a little was that Chang Guangxi was not disappointed, but smiled at He Yun and the others, as if he had expected it, and only heard him say: "Ahem...... Mr. He, Mr. Wang, since this is the case, why don't we change the way of cooperation? ”

"Oh...... Please speak! As soon as Wang Ruoyun heard this, he immediately glanced at He Yun, and then said.

"We can pay for Yunyi Animation to be founded!"

"Uh......"

As soon as these words came out, He Yun and Wang Ruoyun were instantly stunned.

OEM?

That's not impossible!

But the question is, what kind of foundry method!

"We need your company to be responsible for one-third of the original art, and we can give half a million ...... for this."

"Ahem...... Inadequate! Far from enough! Chang Dao, one-third of the original art design workload is too much, only 500,000 is not enough, we have to be busy for at least more than a year. Wang Ruoyun didn't wait for Chang Guangxi to finish speaking, so he directly shook his head and refused.

"That's 750,000, no more!"

"Chang Dao! We need to discuss it, okay? ”

"No problem! I'll be in Kyoto for a few days, and I can wait for news from both of you. With that, Chang Guangxi got up and left.

"I'll send Chang Dao!"

"No, no, no!"

…………

After Chang Guangxi left, Wang Ruoyun looked at He Yun with a puzzled expression.

You know, it's not once or twice that this Chang Dao has come to them.

The first few times, He Yun didn't respond, but this time he ......

This made Wang Ruoyun very puzzled.

"He Yun, why did you promise him, our sci-fi animation won't be done!"

"Of course! But 750,000 is a big order, we must take it! ”

"But one-third of the original design can't be completed with our company's manpower!"

"It's okay! We can ask Brilliant Animation for help! ”

He Yun thought for a moment, and then said.

When Wang Ruoyun heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, as if he had thought of something, he quickly reacted, his face changed slightly, and he was surprised: "He Yun, have you really thought about it?" ”

"Hmm...... It's also time to raise money, and as you said before, brilliant animation is a good choice, and then it's up to you to talk about it. ”

Speaking of this, He Yun couldn't help but sigh.

There's no way around it.

Now that Yunyi Animation has more and more employees, and the annual expenses are growing, it is definitely impossible to maintain it by doing animation alone.

You have to find external strength to get through it.

You know, now is the most difficult few years for animation, and if you want to successfully "break through", you can only rely on financing.

"Alright! Then I'll find a suitable opportunity to talk to them! ”

"Hmmm......"

…………

A few days later.

Quadrangle.

He Yun's own wife, Gao Yunyan, looked surprised: "What! You want to publish a book? ”

"Yes! What's so strange about that! I've created a lot of work over the years, right? I want to ...... back then"

"Stop, stop...... Yunyan, I know what you said, but haven't you been transferred to Xinhua News Agency? He Yun said with a puzzled face.

Publishing a book is a big deal, although Gao Yunyan's identity is no problem, but Xinhua News Agency is a sensitive unit after all.

"What are you worried about? Isn't it just publishing a book? It's not the sixties and seventies again! Gao Yunyan glanced at He Yun, and then said, "Okay!" I still have to go to work! Tomorrow I'm on vacation, and then you can accompany me to the publishing house. ”

"Uh...... Yes! ”

He Yun was embarrassed, but nodded anyway.

His wife is actually going to publish a book, which is indeed something he didn't expect.

For Gao Yunyan, he naturally knew that he had created a lot of literary works, but he didn't have an in-depth understanding of it.

He just thought she was just creating some miscellaneous talk in the editorial department, after all, being an editor is very busy.

But he didn't expect that his daughter-in-law not only created a lot of articles, but also even created several novels.

And he didn't know much about these before.

If he hadn't heard someone talk about it by chance this time, he really wouldn't have known about it.

"Alas...... It seems that I have been busy with other things over the years, and I have indeed neglected Yunyan a lot, so I will have to find more time to accompany her in the future! ”

He Yun sighed secretly and didn't say anything more.

If you publish a book, you will publish a book!

This is naturally a good thing.

When the time comes, both of them and husband are writers, isn't this a beautiful story.

…………

However, what He Yun didn't expect was this.

The next day, when he went to pick up Gao Yunyan at the gate of Xinhua News Agency, he looked at the book in his hand and was full of surprise: "This is the book you want to publish?" …… This is what you wrote? ”

"Really? Some of these were written when I was in the Kyoto Daily, and some of them were written when I was transferred to the Xinhua News Agency, and they were all miscellaneous essays, a total of 60 articles, which had basically been published before. ”

"Uh......!" After He Yun listened to his daughter-in-law's words, his jaw dropped in shock.

He'd already seen it before.

Seriously, he really didn't expect his daughter-in-law's writing to be so sharp.

These miscellaneous essays and some other types of articles reveal everyone's sails everywhere.

The most important thing is that some of the "political commentary" articles are clearly written and analyzed in a very good manner, and many of them analyze the international situation and relations between countries.

It can be said that it is very miscellaneous!

Although she is more than a little less well-known than a great writer like him, to a certain extent, she has surpassed He Yun.

At least he can't write about these "political theories" analysis.

"Let's go! Come back to your senses! Hurry up and drive me to Kyoto Publishing House, where Editor-in-Chief Xu is still waiting for me. ”

"Done! I really didn't expect our wife to be so powerful! Much better than me! ”

"Humph! Slippery! When did you start to love saying these nice things? ”

"What a flamboyant tongue! Your husband admires ......"

"Stop! Stop! Isn't it just publishing a book? Are you the only ones allowed to publish books? I'm not allowed to publish a book! ”

"No, no, no...... That's not what I meant! Yunyan! ”

"Then drive!"

"Uh......"

…………

Half an hour later.

The entrance of Kyoto Press.

He Yun looked at the contract in his hand and couldn't help but be amazed.

"Tsk...... Why is there so much manuscript fee? More than mine! He Yun looked at Gao Yunyan with a look of surprise, very surprised.

"What's so strange about this, our kind of books are for a certain number of people, and this publishing house basically only publishes this kind of books, so is it normal to pay enough for manuscripts? After all......"

"Forget it! Don't talk about that! He Yun! Later, I will be sent to another publishing house, and I will take advantage of my vacation today to finalize the publication of another book! ”

"Still have a book to publish? Yunyan, you can't be this kind of collection of political essays, right? ”

"Why! I've written everything in that book, but this time it's just some of my prose! ”

"Prose? Yunyan, you're incredible, aren't you? How many articles have you created over the years? I don't know at all! ”

"You still say! You don't care about my business all these years, so you know that you are busy with your business......"

"Ahem......"

………

After the two argued for a few words, they didn't say anything more in the end.

However, He Yun still gasped afterwards.

He never expected that his wife had published a total of seven books over the years, and with the addition of two books this time, nine works had been published.

In terms of numbers alone, it is no less than him.

Although her popularity can't be compared with him, she joined the Kyoto Writers' Association early.

But He Yun didn't even know about this, and she didn't say it.

"Alas......"

He Yun sighed softly, but he was extremely ashamed.

Over the years, he has really cared too little about Gao Yunyan.

He didn't even know these things.

And Gao Yunyan didn't seem to think it was a big deal about publishing her book, so she didn't tell him.

But He Yun knew that the reason why she didn't say it was actually secretly "competing" with him.

After all, his brilliance as a great writer is too dazzling.

In her eyes, even if she has published so many books, she is still far from catching up with He Yun's footsteps.

…………

Inside the courtyard.

In the evening, it was late at night.

At this moment, He Yun was holding Gao Yunyan and lying on the bed.

"I'm sorry! Yunyan! It's me who has ignored your feelings all these years. He Yun kissed her on the forehead and couldn't help but say to her softly.

"He Yun, you ...... Don't let you sleep yet! Hurry up and go to bed! I have to go to work tomorrow! In He Yun's arms, Gao Yunyan looked confused, she didn't understand He Yun's reaction today, let alone why He Yun was weird today.

This is an old husband and wife, and from dinner to now, he has been saying some "meaty" things to himself, which makes her very uncomfortable.

Now, it's almost twelve o'clock, and he actually hugged himself and kissed him lightly on the forehead, which feels a little abnormal no matter how you look at it.

"Uh...... Go to bed! Go to bed! ”

"He Yun, why are you weird today? You okay? Isn't it just two books? Am I far worse than you? ”

"It's okay! Go to sleep! He Yun shook his head slightly and didn't say anything more.

…………

In the days that followed, He Yun would always find some time to spend with his family.

Especially Gao Yunyan, since he learned that Gao Yunyan had published several books, he cared more about her.

And every week, he takes the family out to play.

As for the company and the school, he basically didn't put too much energy into it.

On this day, it was already the end of December.

He Yun has already created several short science fiction stories.

Although he thought it was good after reading it, he didn't immediately send it to Science Fiction World magazine.

The reason is simple, he is waiting for the right time.

After all, it won't be long before the Kyoto Science Fiction Convention will be held, and he needs to meet Yang Xiao, and these science fiction articles can be handed over to him in person.

It just so happened that he also had something to talk about with her.

In addition, there is another important thing, which is related to the selection of next year's Nebula Awards and Hugo Awards.

It turned out that at the end of the year, He Yun received a message from Yang Xiao again, saying that in 1997, that is, next year, he was likely to win the Nebula Award and Hugo Award again.

This time it's another of his works.

He didn't expect this work to be shortlisted, after all, this work is already the second version, although it has been modified, but most of it is still the original plot.

That's right! This work is his earlier "Sea Prison".

Speaking of which, when this work was published overseas, it went through some twists and turns, but for now, this work is undoubtedly relatively successful.

Not only has it been translated into more than 40 languages, but the most important thing is that the English version has been reprinted, that is, this edition over the years, and the plot has also been modified to a certain extent.

This is actually not the first time He Yun.

"Sea Prison" once published another English version because of the filming, but because the movie was not well-known, that version did not make any splash.

Later, it was reprinted in the United Kingdom, and later reprinted in Australia and Maple Leaf Country, but it was not as influential as this year's reprint in the United States.

The reason is also very simple, this version is the biggest change in He Yun, and it is also the most reasonable version.

After all, when this was first created, there were still certain loopholes, and it was not very well considered.

But now it's different, this English version has long been filled in by He Yun with all kinds of loopholes, and most importantly, it is very in line with the values of the Western world. Reborn in 1985 as a writer
