"I decided to go to No. 1 Middle School with Zhao Yang next time to see the girl who looks like Zhao Min. I had a few elementary school classmates in No. 1 Middle School, and we had a good relationship in elementary school, and I did better than them in my studies, and I often copied my homework for them.

Later, when I went to junior high school, my family went to No. 1 Middle School when they had money, and my family went to No. 2 Middle School when they didn't have money. I didn't see each other for half a year, they became good students, and I became a little gangster. This is the best example of how the environment can change people. “

······

However, no matter how lively the "Hanbai Controversy" is on the Internet, no matter how lively it is in the mainstream media, there are still people it can't touch; For example, farmers who work hard, social animals who work overtime every day, such as students who study hard.

Far away in the No. 1 Middle School in Guangdong Province, everyone is still living their lives peacefully.

Therefore, no matter how big the matter is, or how famous the person is, if it is far away from his life, it is impossible for everyone to know and care.

Li Jingkun's novel "Whose Youth Walks with Me" has been serialized for several months, and judging from the feedback received by Hu Yunying, the response is okay, and the plan for a single book is about to be put on the agenda.

During this period, he also contacted Hu Yunying on the Internet and did a brief interview, which was placed in the latest issue of the magazine; Here's what it looks like:

Editor Hu: Your novel has been very popular recently, and many people have written to the editorial department, asking when it will be serialized and when it will be published as a single book.

Li Tangwang: Haha, this question shouldn't be asked to me, it should be asked to your editorial department, right? Didn't I send you all the content of the novel?

Editor Hu: Ahem, okay, skip this question first - but many people also said that they don't know you very well, so you should be obliged to come out and introduce yourself, right?

Li Tangwang: I'm still in high school; Like you, I like to read and write novels, and there's nothing special about it. There is no "red light on for seven homework", and there is no dropping out, haha.

Editor Hu: On the contrary, I heard that the grades are pretty good, right?

Li Tangwang: You use the word "heard" well—didn't you just listen to me?

Editor Hu: (laughs) There are also readers who want to ask, are these stories you wrote true? Did a lot of it happen to you or your friends?

Li Tangwang: Is this reader a boy or a girl?

Editor Hu: Is there a difference between boys and girls? What if it's a boy?

Li Tangwang: Of course it's true, that's how I am, pretty cool, right?

Editor Hu: What if the girl asked?

Li Tangwang: Don't believe the boy's mouth.

Editor Hu: Hahaha, there are still many readers who want to know what you look like.

Li Tangwang: It's what you imagined, the handsome and talented kind.

Editor Hu: Do you mind if our editorial department announces that you are handsome and talented?

Li Tangwang: Hahaha-of course mind!

Editor Hu: (laughs) Why? Isn't it handsome and talented?

Li Tangwang: But my handsomeness has long outweighed my talent - I don't want my readers to like me because of my handsomeness, I hope it's because of talent.

Hu Editor: ······ Another reader wants to ask, in life, whose youth accompanies you? - Let me tell you first, this reader is a girl.

Li Tangwang: What do you mean by this inexplicable hint? Our "Sprouts" is a youth literature magazine, and it is aimed at underage junior high and high school students.

Editor Hu: You also said that it is a youth literature magazine, isn't youth the beginning of the sprout of hazy and beautiful feelings? Aren't you writing a young adult novel? And this girl also said that I feel that the emotional stories you write are very real, have you experienced a lot, so you can write so well.

Li Tangwang: Talent, talent, this is the talent I just said.

Editor Hu: As you just said, don't believe the boy's mouth.

Li Tangwang: Hahaha, you won.

Editor Hu: You haven't answered my question just now, is there anyone who accompanies your youth in life?

Li Tangwang: I still say the same sentence - the school prohibits early love, students!

……

After the article was published, Hu Yunying said that the response was also enthusiastic; Not only did many people leave messages on the "Sprout Forum" about this incident, but more readers also wrote to their editorial department, saying that they didn't expect Li Jingkun to be so funny in reality, and hoped that they would interview him more if they had nothing to do, and they wanted to know more about him.

Of course, the most talked about is that I hope the editorial department can send out his photos so that everyone can see what this handsome and talented person is like.

In fact, Hu Yunying and the editorial department didn't expect this short interview to be so good, but it disrupted the plan a little - in fact, the plan for the single book has already been put on the agenda. They set the number of first prints of the novel at 40,000 copies.

Compared with Han Han, Guo Jingming and others, who printed hundreds of thousands of copies for the first time, 40,000 seems to be a very low number; But in fact, Han Han, Guo Jingming and others are only a very small number of people who stand at the top of the industry.

And the first printing of 40,000 copies is already worthy of being included in the ranks of best-selling authors.

But this enthusiastic feedback seems like a good sign? Could the number be added a little more?

I can only serialize two more issues to see the changes.

……

After the first novel was delivered, the second novel was slowly being copied.

But even if I didn't rush it so much, it had been four or five months since the last book, so I had already written more than 100,000 words at this time, and I was almost finished.

But at this time, of course, you can't rush to publish, everything has to wait for the results of the first book to come out.

To be honest, he knew that the money he made in the first book would not be too much, after all, he was a rookie author, but he didn't expect it to be so little.

Hu Yunying's boss (Han Han and other young writers have always called her the boss, because she is not just an ordinary editor of "Young Shoots", she is now holding an important position, and will become an associate editor later) told him that the first printing should be set at 40,000 copies, and the price of a single book is estimated to be set at about 19 yuan.

So he calculated, the royalty is 6%, so if it is all sold, it will actually be more than 40,000 yuan?

And he has already received two manuscript fees for a total of 5,000 yuan before, so only 40,000 yuan can be obtained?

······

This semester, Li Jingkun came by motorcycle, usually parked in the school's parking lot, and drove home on Friday evening.

It's still relatively free to have a car, you can go wherever you want, and you're not in a hurry, you can stop and buy something or take a break whenever you want.

In addition, there are not many cars and motorcycles here, and the ban on motorcycles has not yet begun, so it is still relatively cool.

Sometimes he drove home, saw a bubble tea shop on the way, and stopped to buy milk tea for his younger siblings before continuing on the road.

After about twenty minutes of driving, Li Jingkun passed by the intersection of his previous middle school, which was already past the end of school, so there were not many students on the road.

He deliberately slowed down and looked into the intersection, only to see several familiar figures by chance.

I saw that among the several girls who were playing not far away, one was his first girlfriend in his previous life.

He was stunned for a moment, stopped the car, turned around and looked carefully, it was really her, Fang Yueshan.
