The sky is clear, Nova Press.

At this time, in the editor-in-chief's office, the smell of tea was wafting in the room.

"Su Ye, that is, you come, otherwise I won't be willing to take out these two taels of good tea."

Zhong Shanhe is a middle-aged man in his forties, when a man is in the prime of life, and New Star Publishing House is a publishing house backed by the national character, and being able to sit in the position of editor-in-chief at this age is enough to show his ability.

It stands to reason that it is impossible for the two to intersect, but Xin Wen knows Zhong Shanhe's father Zhong Qing, Mr. Zhong Qing is a well-known essayist, and he was good friends with Xin Wen when he was studying in Beijing. A few years ago, Su Ye had a need to publish a book, and it happened that Xin Wen introduced Zhong Shanhe to Su Ye.

"Then I'll take a good look at the tea of Editor-in-Chief Zhong." Su Ye sniffed first, glanced at the tea soup, then took a sip, took a few seconds, and then took a big sip, his lips and teeth were fragrant, "Good tea!" ”

Seeing this, Zhong Shanhe naturally knew that Su Ye was also a person who understood tea, and his tea leaves were not secretly invested in Mingzhu, so he couldn't help laughing, "Tell me, why did you suddenly remember to visit me?" ”

"Isn't it normal for authors to care about their books?"

"Hmph, others say they care about me, you?" Zhong Shanhe shook his head and smiled, "If it weren't for Mr. Xin to let you show your academic achievements, if it wasn't for the selection of professional titles, you wouldn't have bothered to write, right?" ”

"Brother Zhong, you also said that I was too high, and I am also a layman."

Zhong Shanhe was too lazy to expose Su Ye, in fact, he also liked Su Ye's character very much, otherwise he really thought that Xin Wen would take care of him, would he be so kind to Su Ye?

"Alright, tell me your true purpose."

"Sure enough, everything can't be hidden from Brother Zhong's fiery eyes." Su Ye was a little embarrassed and said, "Brother Zhong, I want to put one more preface at the beginning of the book." ”

"It's a trivial matter, and you still need to come to me in person? Besides, this is also a good thing, one more big bull in the field will stand on the platform, and we will be better publicized when the time comes. ”

Su Ye had told Zhong Shanhe before that the teacher Xin Wen and he would find the sociologist Xiang Lan to write a preface for him. Therefore, Zhong Shanhe naturally thought that Su Ye had found another big bull to endorse. This is actually a very common thing in today's publishing industry, and now that the print medium is declining, a book can be called a bestseller if it can sell more than 50,000 copies a year. Therefore, not only the author of the book, but also the publishing house, will find a platform for the big bull when a book is released and provide publicity points.

"Brother Zhong, no, I want to write a preface."

"You?" Zhong Shanhe was stunned for a moment, but then smiled, "If you want to write, you can write, plus you only have three prefaces, the author said that there is a precedent for publishing the creative process from the preface, Yu Hua You know, he is famous for his love of writing prefaces." ”

Su Ye smiled knowingly, leaving the sadness to the readers and the happiness to himself, Mr. Yu Hua had a good time, and a book of "Alive" was written in five editions of the preface, analyzing himself from different angles and different processes.

"Brother Zhong, my preface is a little special, I want to focus on writing one person in the preface."

"Old Man Xin?"

"No, it's my love."

Zhong Shanhe was dumbfounded, mainly because he had heard Xin Yi mention it more than once, the little junior brother was emotionally an elm pimple, how long had he not seen Su Ye, and he had a partner?

"Does your senior brother know?"

"Yes, and so does the teacher."

"This is a happy event, congratulations, now your senior brother doesn't have to worry about it." Zhong Shanhe smiled, "But you kid is quite romantic, this is to put the acknowledgments in the graduate thesis into the book." ”

As we all know, undergraduate theses will not be uploaded to CNKI, and only master's theses and above are eligible. There are some romantic master's graduates who will mention a thank you to my girlfriend xxx at the end of the paper, as long as CNKI has always existed, this love will always be stored.

Su Ye's thoughts are indeed the same, and for the time being, he can't let the whole world know that he and Jiang Baizhi are in love. Then write it in a book, even if it is published in the future, it may sell tens of thousands of copies, and not too many people pay attention to it. But written in the book, in a sense, as long as human civilization still exists, and the information of his books has always existed, their love will always be passed on, and as long as people still read his books, they will know the love story of him and Jiang Baizhi.

This is the 520 gift that Su Ye prepared for Jiang Baizhi, and it is also his compensation for Jiang Baizhi's inability to make an official announcement.

"Yes, but because of her special identity, I'm not sure if I want to put it in front for a while."

"Oh?"

"She is a public figure, I don't know if Brother Zhong pays attention to the entertainment industry, her name is Jiang Baizhi."

Zhong Shanhe was stunned again, this would be no less surprised than knowing that Su Ye had a girlfriend just now. Because he knows Jiang Baizhi! He likes Zhang Kaige's movies very much, so he is no stranger to Jiang Baizhi, who is popular with Zhang Kaige and has used her as the heroine many times!

"Su Ye, is it convenient for your girlfriend to ask me for an autograph from Director Kaige?"

Looking at Zhong Shanhe's excited face, Su Ye was a little helpless, but he still nodded, "I asked Bai Zhi, I'll bring it to you when I turn around." ”

Zhong Shanhe also realized that he was a little out of shape, and he adjusted, "I'm sorry, I'm a little happy." However, your concerns are worth pondering, should you listen to my advice? ”

"Of course, I just came to listen to Brother Zhong's opinion."

"Su Ye, I can tell you very responsibly that I and the entire editorial department are very optimistic about your book, because it really writes about the pain points of contemporary Chinese people, and it is not an exaggeration to say that if people who are confused want to find a way out from philosophy, your book must be the first choice. So even after the three reviews and three proofreadings of this book, we will not release and ship it immediately, we are ready to publicize it, this was supposed to tell you later, and now I will tell you in advance, anyway, you will need to cooperate with you to attend the event anyway. ”

"I understand your thoughts, and you want everyone to witness your love. But I have to remind readers that when they see the preface, if they know Jiang Baizhi, their minds will be separated, and even their attention will be shifted to the book to your relationship. You know what, it's unfair to the book! ”

Looking at Su Ye's pensive look, Zhong Shanhe continued, "I think this 'preface' can be written, but it is not a preface, but a postscript, and few people will directly turn to the back and read the postscript directly, so that you can not only retain your mind, but also will not have an impact on this book." ”

"Brother Zhong, it's a very pertinent opinion, just do as you say."

Hearing this, Zhong Shanhe laughed. In fact, to a certain extent, Zhong Shanhe is also a very responsible publisher, when he knows the relationship between Su Ye and Jiang Baizhi, he attaches importance to the 'book', hoping to be seen by readers attentively, and does not start from the sales volume, and continues to keep the 'preface'.

But Zhong Shanhe was also an ordinary man, so he said embarrassedly, "Su Ye, can you easily ask why you are with her?" Don't get me wrong, I mean the two of you live in completely different circumstances, and your work content is also different."

"Brother Zhong, you don't need to explain, I understand what you mean." Speaking of this, Su Ye paused, "If you insist on saying the reason, it is probably that when the eyes of the whole world are looking at her, her eyes will always be on me." ”

Big star Jiang Baizhi doesn't care what the world thinks of her, she has seen the whole world, but she chose him and wanted to introduce him to the world, this is what Su Ye said.

So at this moment, Su Ye's face was full of pride
