Chapter 122 Silent to Ji Zhuo
After this episode, about two-thirds of the entire length of the bird in the cage has passed.
Editor-in-Chief Qian continued to read the last few chapters carefully.
until the finale,
The finale ends with a sentence from the protagonist, which reflects the content of the beginning and the introduction of the book.
"...caged bird, when will you know that your greatest value is not to be watched by others, but to fly freely."
"The book is over."
Seeing the last three words 'complete book',
Editor Qian, who had been immersed in the world of this book, raised his head again and let out a long breath.
Only then did he realize that the lights in the office were already a little bright. Looking out the window, it turned out that he had been reading all afternoon, and it was already evening outside the window.
"call……"
"It's a really good book."
Editor-in-Chief Qian only felt that some plots in the book could not stop reverberating in his mind, and his scalp felt numb when he thought about some plots.
He hasn't seen such a good science fiction novel for a long time, at least it's the first time in several years that he has seen it in his publishing house.
After another long breath, Editor-in-Chief Qian became a little excited again.
It was a good science fiction novel, and he was thrilled that such an excellent science fiction novel would be published by his publishing house.
"...the first printing is only [-] copies, isn't it a bit small..."
At this moment, the book has not been put on sale yet, but Editor-in-Chief Qian is already thinking about reprinting.
……
"...Sir, here is your room card, welcome to check in."
And right now, Ji Zhuo, who packed up his things and went on a trip, has arrived at Gusu, the first stop of the trip, not far from the magical capital.
Ji Zhuo traveled slowly, and now he has arrived at the hotel he booked on the way.
When we arrived at the room, it was an antique room,
Outside the wooden window, there is a gurgling stream, and there is a quaint arch bridge across the stream not far away.
Just as the night is approaching, when the lanterns come on, the lights are reflected on the water surface, and the water surface is slightly rippling, which is quite beautiful.
Ji Zhuo threw the luggage aside, opened the window, and collapsed on the sofa under the window,
I didn't want to move anymore, and let the faint bustle outside the house blow through the window, accompanied by some steamy wind, blowing into the house.
Well, comfortable...
……
"...Explore again! Damn, I don't believe it anymore, the dog author really didn't write a new book?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"According to the frequency of the author of the dog, 100% opened a trumpet to release a new book!"
"Brothers and friends, unite! Let the dog writers see our strength!"
"...I know an author, and I can ask him to ask for help."
"...Well... I know the editor of Shiyue. Maybe I can ask."
In the small group pulled,
A group of old readers are plotting in private.
I searched various websites for several times, but I still couldn't find a new book with the style of a dog author.
"...Do you think it's possible that the dog author's new book hasn't been released yet?"
"...Impossible! What kind of book dog author can write for so long at the beginning?"
"...Hey, maybe the author of the dog is traveling somewhere right now... Do you think he fell into a pit while walking?"
"...It's not impossible."
……
"Aqiu..."
Ji Zhuo turned his head and sneezed to the side,
Turning around again, the owner of the food stall said aloud,
"Boss, give me this too."
"Okay. Wait a minute."
Ji Zhuo, who had been paralyzed on the hotel sofa for a while, was quarreled again by his grunting stomach.
Hearing that the front desk of the hotel said that there was a snack street nearby, I touched it.
Turning his head, Ji Zhuo glanced at the snack street,
On both sides of the snack street, there are many kinds of snack stalls, shops, authentic stinky tofu and milk tea shops in Xingcheng, and skewer shops.
How should I put it, the streets are very lively, but it is not the time of the holiday season,
Lively but not crowded, it can be said to be lively just right.
"Handsome, what you want is ready."
"Thank you, the money has been scanned."
carrying something,
Ji Zhuo walked leisurely around the night market until he burped.
……
"...I'm sorry, brothers. It's not that I'm not good enough, it's that the author of the dog is too secretive."
"... Hey, do you think the dog author's new book has been released?"
"...According to the frequency of book writing by dog authors, it should be published..."
"...Ahem, pay attention, this is the book club of the human squid."
"Squid: It's okay, it's okay."
Squid didn't help this group of readers to ask about the title of Ji Zhuo's new book, but sent him a message in the group.
Looking at the discussions among these people in the group, Squid couldn't help thinking whether Ji Zhuo's new book has been published or not.
He also really wants to read it... There are a few authors who don't read novels.
Hey, thinking about it like that makes me feel bad.
So squid updated a single chapter in his book.
"Today's condition is not good, dove."
"???"
Then I got a bunch of question marks.
……
Fancheng.
Ye Linhan was eating a bowl of noodles at the noodle shop he frequented.
While looking at some comments under his video with his mobile phone,
He remembered that the last time he found a new book by the author of the dog, it was mentioned under the video comment.
At this moment, he couldn't stop flipping through the comment section, trying to see if there were any clues.
It's a pity... I have searched through the latest comments under several videos, but there is no clue at all.
Is it possible that the new book of the dog author has not been released yet?
Am I out here fighting the air?
Ye Linhan raised his head, his eyes were filled with confusion.
"Ok?"
Then he raised his head and found that the opposite side of the table passed,
At the dining table in the back, the son of the noodle shop owner is sitting, holding a book and opening and closing it repeatedly.
The cover of the book is still a little familiar, and at first glance, it is indeed a dog. The author is the book "The Shepherd Boy Searching for Immortals".
This half-grown boy also reads books by dog authors?
Hmm... It's not surprising that he was at this age when he first started to like reading novels.
But the young man felt a little anxious reading this book. Isn't the shepherd boy Xunxian a very calming book?
……
And at this time, the boy sitting opposite,
Holding the nearly crumpled "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals", he paused and sighed again.
I've read this book almost seventeen or eight times.
Why is the dog author's new book not out yet?
It's so frustrating to wait.
No wonder everyone calls him the dog author...
……
"...Yun Qingmu! Yun Qingmu..."
"Um……"
As soon as Yun Xinxin opened the door and entered the room, she called her sister's name,
Then I heard a weak voice from beside me,
Only then did she turn her head to find that Yun Qingmu was lazily slumped on the sofa, motionless.
"...Yun Qingmu, the latest news!"
"There's news about the dog author's new book!"
"Ok?"
Yun Qingmu sat up from the sofa,
Looking at the mysterious Yun Xinxin, her eyes were filled with anticipation.
"...I stood behind when the editor-in-chief was chatting with the dog author before, and I saw their chat records!"
"Huh? Did you mention the new book?"
"Yes! The dog author's new book was not published on Shiyue.com or Feimo Novels, but chose to publish it directly."
"Published? No wonder..."
"and then?"
Yun Qingmu asked again.
"Then? Then it's gone..."
"..."
"Oh, one publishing house can also be ruled out, Modu Publishing House."
"..."
Yun Qingmu went back paralyzed again.
She felt that it would be more effective to go to Ji Zhuo and directly "extort a confession" from Ji Zhuo.
I don't know what Ji Zhuo is doing right now?
Yun Qingmu couldn't stop this idea from popping up in her mind.
……
"Hiccup..."
I don't know if it's dinner or supper. I eat a little too much.
Ji Zhuo hiccupped, took another sip of Coke and suppressed it.
He raised his head and looked at the similar sky... Well, it's almost there, let's go back to the hotel.
……
"Ding dong..."
Three days later,
In three days, Ji Zhuo carried out this tour around the magic city thoroughly,
I changed three places in three days, and went to all the places I could play.
It was a great time to play.
After waking up from the hotel, the sun outside the window was just right, shining through the gap in the curtains under the window,
The quilt is quite comfortable, Ji Zhuo still doesn't remember it,
But at this time, the phone rang,
Someone sent a message on Penguin Chat.
"Huating Publishing Editor-in-Chief Qian: All channels are ready for stock, and "The Bird in a Cage" will officially go on sale today."
"Editor Qian: The publishing house will try its best to promote your book, Mr. Bugong. The quality of "The Bird in the Cage" itself is also very good, and the sales performance should be good.
It's a coincidence that doesn't work: Editor-in-Chief Qian praised it absurdly. "
Ji Zhuo yawned and touched the phone.
Is this going on sale?He hasn't finished his tour around the magic capital yet.
There seems to be a chain bookstore opposite the hotel building. I don’t know if there is any goods there. Why don’t you go and have a look?
Thoughts ran through his mind, but Ji Zhuo politely replied to Editor Qian's message.
Who knew that Editor-in-Chief Qian was quite serious about this.
"Editor-in-Chief Qian: It's not an absurd praise. I took the time to finish reading Mr. Bugong's work two days ago. It's really well written.
Editor-in-Chief Qian: I watched it all afternoon, and when I finished, I found that it was already dark.
Editor-in-chief Qian: And the ending is really unconventional. Although I feel a little regretful, this kind of regret happens to be reasonable.Let this regret bring a perfect sublimation to the whole book. "
This boast... Ji Zhuo felt a little numb,
If he didn't interrupt, Ji Zhuo felt that the editor-in-chief Qian would be able to say a lot of post-reading thoughts and recommended words.
"It's a coincidence that doesn't work: Editor Qian is too polite...
Editor-in-chief Qian: You are not being polite...
Editor-in-Chief Qian: Well, Mr. Ji doesn’t need to be too modest, “The Bird in a Cage” is pretty good. "
It seemed that he also felt that it was a bit too much to keep talking like this, so Editor-in-Chief Qian stopped it and didn't continue talking.
"Big coincidence: um..."
"It's a big coincidence: the channel of the store, does Huade Bookstore have it? I happen to have one here."
After sending the message, Ji Zhuo still got up from the bed and glanced outside the hotel. The chain bookstore opposite the hotel was indeed called this name.
"Editor-in-Chief Qian: Hmm... because the publisher's performance has not been very good in the past two years... some offline channels are a little bit less... most of the channels for this release are online.
Editor-in-chief Qian: Huade Bookstore has some stock in stock, but I don’t know if Mr. Bugong has stock in your place.
Editor-in-Chief Qian: Shall I send you a few collector's editions to the address you sent the contract to, Mr. Bugong?
It's a coincidence: um... OK. "
After chatting with Editor-in-Chief,
Ji Zhuo changed his clothes anyway, washed up and went out.
He still planned to go downstairs to the bookstore opposite to see if there were no books for him.
If so, see how the sales are going.
um, right?
It seems that when the promise book was officially released, it also told Yun Qingmu.
……
"Clumsy and Uncommon: The Book Is Officially Released.
30 per second: Is it on sale...Is it going online and selling through various channels? "
Ji Zhuo walked out of the hotel and walked towards the bookstore opposite.
After sending a message to Yun Qingmu, Yun Qingmu replied quickly.
But Yun Qingmu's news...how did she know it was a physical book?
I seem to have talked to the editor,
My good fellow, if you can leak the news like this, I'm afraid there is an inner ghost.
Sure enough, it was right to keep the title of the new book secret from everyone, otherwise it would have been leaked.
"Clumsy and uncommon: Hmm.
30 per second: the title of the book. "
Ji Zhuo glanced at the new news, and immediately closed the Penguin chat.
What did Yun Qingmu say just now?
Hey, I'm really sorry, I'm in a hurry, I didn't see it.
Let's talk about it after seeing it in two days.
"...Welcome, what book do you want to read?"
This chain bookstore is not small,
There is a lot of space inside, and there are rows of bookshelves densely packed with books.
Although there are divisions, it is still troublesome for Ji Zhuo to find "The Bird in a Cage" by himself.
So...he asked the clerk in the bookstore directly,
"Excuse me, is there "The Bird in the Cage" here? It's a science fiction novel written by an author named Bugong."
Ji Zhuo asked with a blushing heartbeat as usual,
The young man picking up books from the pile of books next to him seemed to have raised his head and glanced at Ji Zhuo after hearing Ji Zhuo's words, and then went on looking for books again.
"The Caged Bird? Science fiction?"
"I seem to have a little impression, wait a minute, let me check."
The clerk raised his head, thought for a while, and seemed to have a little impression,
So I lowered my head and rummaged through the storage slip on the computer.
"...Okay, I found it, it's on the bookshelf in the science fiction section over there, in the third row and the fourth shelf from top to bottom."
"This book just arrived yesterday. There are only ten copies in our store. If you don't ask me, I can't remember it... Hey, which is the new work of a famous sci-fi author?"
The clerk found the place where the "Bird in a Cage" book was placed, raised his head and said to Ji Zhuo.
At the same time, it may be because someone came to buy this very small book, so he also asked about the situation.
"...Well, that's it."
Famous sci-fi masters... Is 'Clumsy and Uncommon' a famous sci-fi master?
Although I posted "Seven Days of Hell" in the reality category, many readers seem to think it is science fiction.
Well, it also won a sci-fi award.
Ji Zhuo pondered,
After thanking the clerk, I followed the direction the clerk gave me.
I found the science fiction section of the bookstore, the row of bookshelves with "The Bird in the Cage",
A few copies of "The Bird in the Cage" are sandwiched between a pile of books, and a profile can be exposed,
And what kind of book is next to the bird in the cage, it is the kind of book that hunts for the unsolved mysteries of the world.
It's such a good position...
Some of the several copies of "The Bird in the Cage" have been removed from the plastic packaging.
It can be regarded as a book for book buyers to try in bookstores.
Ji Zhuo took out the "Bird in a Cage" without any hassle,
Turned over and took a look.
Hmm... the cover of the book is still good,
It's a somewhat dark and depressing picture,
In the middle of the picture is the back of Dao's figure, and the silhouette of a bird stands on the back.
The upper part of the picture is a pitch-black night, which is very depressing, as if it is pressed on top of the figure.
In the lower part of the picture, there are a few stray ants crawling towards the edge of the book.
The font of the title of the book is divided into upper and lower. The word 'cage' is made up of some tiny ants, while the remaining two characters are made up of some tiny reptile-like figures.
From the strokes and details on the cover of this book, it can be seen that Huating Science Fiction Publishing House spent money.
paused,
When he opened the title page, Ji Zhuo saw the brief introduction of "The Bird in the Cage".
After a pause, Ji Zhuo turned down a few more pages,
Well, the printed paper doesn't feel very thin to the touch, and the fonts are printed clearly.
Looks like it cost money too...
Turning the book upside down again, Ji Zhuo looked at the price of the entire book.
Retail price: 38.8 yuan.
This price is not cheap for a novel with only 30 words.
"...Dude, what do you think of this novel?"
At this time, the young man I met at the bookstore cashier earlier,
At the moment, I was looking for books along the bookshelf, and found it here, looking at the "Bird in a Cage" in Ji Zhuo's hand, he seemed a little interested, and asked,
Then these words made Ji Zhuo a little silent.
(End of this chapter)
After this episode, about two-thirds of the entire length of the bird in the cage has passed.
Editor-in-Chief Qian continued to read the last few chapters carefully.
until the finale,
The finale ends with a sentence from the protagonist, which reflects the content of the beginning and the introduction of the book.
"...caged bird, when will you know that your greatest value is not to be watched by others, but to fly freely."
"The book is over."
Seeing the last three words 'complete book',
Editor Qian, who had been immersed in the world of this book, raised his head again and let out a long breath.
Only then did he realize that the lights in the office were already a little bright. Looking out the window, it turned out that he had been reading all afternoon, and it was already evening outside the window.
"call……"
"It's a really good book."
Editor-in-Chief Qian only felt that some plots in the book could not stop reverberating in his mind, and his scalp felt numb when he thought about some plots.
He hasn't seen such a good science fiction novel for a long time, at least it's the first time in several years that he has seen it in his publishing house.
After another long breath, Editor-in-Chief Qian became a little excited again.
It was a good science fiction novel, and he was thrilled that such an excellent science fiction novel would be published by his publishing house.
"...the first printing is only [-] copies, isn't it a bit small..."
At this moment, the book has not been put on sale yet, but Editor-in-Chief Qian is already thinking about reprinting.
……
"...Sir, here is your room card, welcome to check in."
And right now, Ji Zhuo, who packed up his things and went on a trip, has arrived at Gusu, the first stop of the trip, not far from the magical capital.
Ji Zhuo traveled slowly, and now he has arrived at the hotel he booked on the way.
When we arrived at the room, it was an antique room,
Outside the wooden window, there is a gurgling stream, and there is a quaint arch bridge across the stream not far away.
Just as the night is approaching, when the lanterns come on, the lights are reflected on the water surface, and the water surface is slightly rippling, which is quite beautiful.
Ji Zhuo threw the luggage aside, opened the window, and collapsed on the sofa under the window,
I didn't want to move anymore, and let the faint bustle outside the house blow through the window, accompanied by some steamy wind, blowing into the house.
Well, comfortable...
……
"...Explore again! Damn, I don't believe it anymore, the dog author really didn't write a new book?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"According to the frequency of the author of the dog, 100% opened a trumpet to release a new book!"
"Brothers and friends, unite! Let the dog writers see our strength!"
"...I know an author, and I can ask him to ask for help."
"...Well... I know the editor of Shiyue. Maybe I can ask."
In the small group pulled,

Ji Zhuo turned his head and sneezed to the side,
Turning around again, the owner of the food stall said aloud,
"Boss, give me this too."
"Okay. Wait a minute."
Ji Zhuo, who had been paralyzed on the hotel sofa for a while, was quarreled again by his grunting stomach.
Hearing that the front desk of the hotel said that there was a snack street nearby, I touched it.
Turning his head, Ji Zhuo glanced at the snack street,
On both sides of the snack street, there are many kinds of snack stalls, shops, authentic stinky tofu and milk tea shops in Xingcheng, and skewer shops.
How should I put it, the streets are very lively, but it is not the time of the holiday season,
Lively but not crowded, it can be said to be lively just right.
"Handsome, what you want is ready."
"Thank you, the money has been scanned."

Ji Zhuo walked leisurely around the night market until he burped.

"...Ahem, pay attention, this is the book club of the human squid."
"Squid: It's okay, it's okay."
Squid didn't help this group of readers to ask about the title of Ji Zhuo's new book, but sent him a message in the group.
Looking at the discussions among these people in the group, Squid couldn't help thinking whether Ji Zhuo's new book has been published or not.

"Hiccup..."
I don't know if it's dinner or supper. I eat a little too much.
Ji Zhuo hiccupped, took another sip of Coke and suppressed it.
He raised his head and looked at the similar sky... Well, it's almost there, let's go back to the hotel.
……
"Ding dong..."
Three days later,
In three days, Ji Zhuo carried out this tour around the magic city thoroughly,

Ji Zhuo walked out of the hotel and walked towards the bookstore opposite.

But Yun Qingmu's news...how did she know it was a physical book?
I seem to have talked to the editor,
My good fellow, if you can leak the news like this, I'm afraid there is an inner ghost.
Sure enough, it was right to keep the title of the new book secret from everyone, otherwise it would have been leaked.
"Clumsy and uncommon: Hmm.

Famous sci-fi masters... Is 'Clumsy and Uncommon' a famous sci-fi master?
Although I posted "Seven Days of Hell" in the reality category, many readers seem to think it is science fiction.
Well, it also won a sci-fi award.
Ji Zhuo pondered,
After thanking the clerk, I followed the direction the clerk gave me.
I found the science fiction section of the bookstore, the row of bookshelves with "The Bird in the Cage",
A few copies of "The Bird in the Cage" are sandwiched between a pile of books, and a profile can be exposed,
And what kind of book is next to the bird in the cage, it is the kind of book that hunts for the unsolved mysteries of the world.
It's such a good position...
Some of the several copies of "The Bird in the Cage" have been removed from the plastic packaging.
It can be regarded as a book for book buyers to try in bookstores.
Ji Zhuo took out the "Bird in a Cage" without any hassle,
Turned over and took a look.
Hmm... the cover of the book is still good,
It's a somewhat dark and depressing picture,
In the middle of the picture is the back of Dao's figure, and the silhouette of a bird stands on the back.
The upper part of the picture is a pitch-black night, which is very depressing, as if it is pressed on top of the figure.
In the lower part of the picture, there are a few stray ants crawling towards the edge of the book.
The font of the title of the book is divided into upper and lower. The word 'cage' is made up of some tiny ants, while the remaining two characters are made up of some tiny reptile-like figures.
From the strokes and details on the cover of this book, it can be seen that Huating Science Fiction Publishing House spent money.
paused,
When he opened the title page, Ji Zhuo saw the brief introduction of "The Bird in the Cage".
After a pause, Ji Zhuo turned down a few more pages,
Well, the printed paper doesn't feel very thin to the touch, and the fonts are printed clearly.
Looks like it cost money too...
Turning the book upside down again, Ji Zhuo looked at the price of the entire book.
Retail price: 38.8 yuan.
This price is not cheap for a novel with only 30 words.
"...Dude, what do you think of this novel?"
At this time, the young man I met at the bookstore cashier earlier,
At the moment, I was looking for books along the bookshelf, and found it here, looking at the "Bird in a Cage" in Ji Zhuo's hand, he seemed a little interested, and asked,
Then these words made Ji Zhuo a little silent.
