Chapter 178 Greed Chapter
"Ton ton ton..."

After chatting with Editor-in-Chief Lou, Ji Zhuo picked up the water glass and took a sip of his drink.

Looking at the mobile phone again, some hot searches on social platforms.

I searched the circle, and indeed I found the trending search for 'dog author wins', which is attached to the end of the trending search on social platforms, and it won't go up or down for a while.

Click in and see that most of the comments below are from his readers.

Like the first article with the highest comment,
"What is the Europa Science Fiction Award?"

Reply below.

"Secondary awards #funny."

"It's the best science fiction award in Europa. But it's not as good as the two famous awards. It's about the same as the Galaxy Award in our country?"

Then there are the other comments.

"Fuck, the author of the dog won the award? The author of the dog is still floating. Previously, it took half a month to open a new book. Why don't we wait for an extra half a month now?"

"Everyone is a reader of classics, so support me!"

"...The author of the dog has won the award, so he has to accept the award, and if he receives the award, the release of the new book will be delayed... Fuck, is the author of the dog's new book delayed again?"

"Fuck, it's true, this dog author's new book must be delayed for a few more days, rounding up to half a month?"

these comments,
Seeing Jizhuo...,
What a group of his good readers, no wonder Editor-in-Chief Lou’s comments below are quite interesting,

Not very interesting.

Then... Ji Zhuo silently liked these comments.

……

"30 per second: Ji Zhuo, are you going to accept the award?"

"30 per second: Is there another dinner after receiving this award?

Clumsy and uncommon: It's not the Nobel Prize, there is a high probability that it won't be there... Besides, I won't go.

30 per second: When will Ji Zhuoli win the Nobel?

Clumsy and uncommon: ...

30 per second: Just kidding.

30 per second: The gold content of the Nobel Prize in Literature is average, we don’t bother to take it, right, dog author!
Clumsy and uncommon:..."

Looking at the comments of a group of sand sculpture readers under the hot search,
It seems that Yun Qingmu, who also noticed this, sent a message.

After chatting briefly with Yun Qingmu, Ji Zhuo looked away again.

Ton Ton drank the drink in the cup and shouted,

"Boss, check out!"

……

"Boom... Shibian."

"Please help to send the first draft of the characters to the 'Dog Author' to see if you have any comments."

Pioneer Film and Television Media, in the office building.

The humble little screenwriter Shi Chengxian is still at his desk, polishing his script in front of the computer.

Hearing a sudden knock on the door, I was startled.
Looking up, there is a man standing at the door,

There are thick dark circles in both eyes, and the complexion on his face is as if he is about to become a fairy.
After speaking, he yawned and held a cup of espresso in one hand.

It's from the anime production team.

"Ah, okay, I'll forward it right now. But you guys are too tough, can you handle it like this?"

Screenwriter Shi couldn't help but raised his head and said something.

"I can't live without it. Ever since the news of the anime adaptation of 'The Shepherd Boy Xunxian' spread, readers and viewers have been urging me every day. In addition to 'The Shepherd Boy Xunxian', there is also the second season of Mortal Cultivation Anime."

"But our boss is okay, the money is enough, and my sudden death also died in the company."

While talking, the person who came picked up the coffee in his hand and poured the whole cup in one gulp.

"And the shepherd boy Xunxian's writing is really good. If you don't do it well, the artistic conception of the original text will not be reflected at all. If it falls into our hands, our reputation will really be ruined."

The animation production team of Pioneer Film and Television Media, these people,

After the successful adaptation of the anime of the first season of "Mortal Cultivation of Immortals",

Not only did they not relax, but it was the previous success that made these people feel as if they had been beaten to death.

Except for a period of time off when Mortal Cultivation had just finished, during this period of time the animation production for "Shepherd Boy Searching for Immortals" was really exciting.

There are many reasons here,

The excitement and sense of accomplishment of Mortal Cultivation Animation and the success of this group of experts who have been poached from various companies to form a new animation production team,
After the success of Mortal Cultivation Anime, Pioneer Film and Television Media gave a very high bonus,

There are also people in these animation production teams who like the works of the dog author.

"...Editor Shi, please tell the author of the dog, I will go back here first."

"Row."

Watching the animation production team walk back with an empty coffee cup,

Screenwriter Shi couldn't help but turned around and yawned himself, and then forwarded the file sent to him by the animation production team to Ji Zhuo.

……

"Editor Shi: Mr. Ji, the animation production team has finalized some character drafts and some small clips and scene diagrams in Shepherd Boy Xunxian. Can Mr. Ji take a look at it?

Edited by Shi: The first draft of the characters and scenes in "The Shepherd Boy Searching for Immortals".rar. "

Ji Zhuo, who had just returned to his residence after dinner, received a compressed file from the screenwriter of Pioneer Film and Television.

During this period of time, he was busy with new books, and he rarely paid attention to the progress of the animation production of "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals".

No one urged the script, so Ji Zhuo naturally wouldn't ask about the progress.

Now, upon receiving the message, Ji Zhuo didn't download the file first and opened it.

Instead, he turned on the computer, found a few scripts that he had written, and sent them to screenwriter Shi.

"Clumsy and Uncommon: Scripts for Episodes 3-5 of "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals"."

It's nothing... It's just that although the other person didn't mention it, I just greeted you with your creditor on the road,
Guilt ah.

"Editor Shi: Mr. Ji, don't worry too much about the script. The animation production team is not progressing too fast here, just polish the script slowly. Mr. Ji, do you think the characters in the anime are suitable for you?

Clumsy and Uncommon: Hmm...let me take a look first. "

Ji Zhuo downloaded the file, decompressed it and looked at it,
There are some pictures of the characters marked with each character.

The shepherd boy, the old cow, and some important supporting roles and scenes in "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals",
For example, the first city that the shepherd boy and the old cow arrived at, and the hillside grassland in the first act.

The painting style of the whole scene and characters is quite in line with the original, healing, warm, calm,
It's like the rain in the evening, like the wind after the rain, it makes people feel peaceful.

The other thing is the details of these pictures... some scenes and characters are really detailed,

If the animation is produced in the future, the picture will be so fine... It can only be said that the animation production team of Pioneer Film and Television is really capable.

Ji Zhuo looked at the circle, and he can only look at it from the perspective of the original author and the audience.
He liked it very much.

"Clumsy and Uncommon: Pretty good. I like the style."

"Editor Shi: OK, I will pass it on to the animation production team."

……

After a while.

Pioneer Film and Television Media animation production team.

"Comrades, the author of the dog has approved the characters and painting style of our version. Please work harder, and we will strive to launch the animation of Shepherd Boy Xunxian as soon as possible."

"I didn't say anything, I just did it!"

……

"Aha..."

The publisher of Dark Chen Cang's works has been selected,

Ji Zhuo becomes more regular every day,

I also took the time to print out the contract sent by Burt Publishing House,

After confirming that the contract is correct, sign it and send it over.

In addition, every day is to get up at noon, code words in the afternoon, and eat in the evening.

Sometimes I have dinner with Yun Qingmu, and sometimes I just eat something downstairs after typing,

Sometimes when I come back from the outside of the community, I can occasionally meet that little fat pier,

Ji Zhuo also chatted with that little chubby, although sometimes when talking about the author of the dog, the little chubby spoke a little irritatingly,

But it's also fun to talk about at other times.

It's morning again,
The sunlight outside has cast through the gaps in the curtains and reflected on the bed in the bedroom,
Ji Zhuo yawned, got up from the bed, and touched his phone,

Sleepy-eyed, I went to the sink to wash up, and checked the news by the way,
Ji Zhuo lost all sleepiness and was completely awake.

Then I threw the phone aside and started today's codeword.

The sun is shining outside the window,

The sound of birds chirping is not noisy through the windows and the branches and leaves in the community.

The air conditioner is on, and the subtle sound is like the background noise of the environment, in exchange for some coolness.

Ji Zhuo sat in front of the computer,

Open the coding software,
On the codeword software, there are several chapters added to this new book, which is dark and old.
Each chapter is almost tens of thousands of words, and each tells the story of an ordinary person.

this time,
Ji Zhuo has already written the chapter of 'greed',
It is also the last chapter of the "Seven Sins".

The protagonist of this greedy chapter is called Pawedi, a homeless man in a country in American California.

This is a polarized country. At the same time, gangs in the country are mixed and powerful, causing chaos.

Pawedi was born in a low-class family.

His father is a gangster, serving a gang in the city where he lives, with all kinds of poisons.

He is currently a princess in a nightclub, and once hooked up with his father, he was born,
However, his parents were not married.

Paviti, who lives in such a family, will naturally not be much better. He just dropped out of elementary school in the community school.

Even the elementary school is so chaotic, the students in it are not interested in studying at all,

Paviti just got into a bad habit in school and didn't learn any knowledge,

When he was a teenager, his father was shot dead by the local police on the spot for delivering goods to gangs.

As for his mother, anyway, he hadn't seen her for a long time, and it might not be certain where she died.

But even so, before becoming a homeless man, Paviti actually had a decent job,

A fast food restaurant clerk in a slum area.

And the reason why the boss here hired him was also because he was born taller than others,

And here is a slum area, except for the normal gangsters who charge protection fees and cleaning fees.

There are also some very hungry desperadoes.

It is said that he became a fast food clerk, but in fact he seldom does the work of a clerk, he just stays in the store more with a gun,

To deter some customers who occasionally think carefully, as for the gangsters here, they are just like the public security police in the rich area, charging fees as usual, and everyone here is used to it.

But the turning point happened,
The local gang members took a fancy to the business of the fast food restaurant,

Ask the fast food restaurant owner to vacate the fast food restaurant and give only a small portion of the money.

The owner of the fast food restaurant disagreed, and had a quarrel with the gangsters for this.

And the confidence of the fast food restaurant owner lies in another gangster in this area.

At that time, Paviti actually persuaded the boss to give up the fast food restaurant,
But the boss disagreed, and said to find another gangster, let the damn gangster learn a lesson,
Then after the boss left the fast food restaurant,
He was shot dead just one street away from the fast food restaurant.

For this reason, Paviti also lost his job and became a homeless man.
Many years have passed by now.

Occasionally Paviti also robbed at gunpoint,

But Paviti always thought of himself as a good person.

Yes, he always thought so, even when the gun was pointed at a passerby in an alley,
He also always left enough money to survive and get home, and he never fired a gun.

It is against this background that the story unfolds,

The story of this chapter begins on Christmas Eve.

On the day before Christmas Eve,
The homeless Pawidi lost one more important thing - a gun he hadn't used in a long time,
On Christmas Eve, he only had half a piece of bread that was about to freeze hard and his thin clothes.

He didn't even have anything more to wrap around him to keep warm,
He went to the church in the poor area first, but unfortunately he was late.

Although the church will provide some beds to these homeless people every day and provide them with food at night,
Today is Christmas Eve, maybe there will be an apple.

But beds are limited.

And most of the homeless people who can enter the church were waiting at the door of the church last night,
And last night, Paviti looked for the gun he had lost all night.

So unfortunately, he was not able to enter the church that day,
Even Paviti said he could lie on the church floor, just wishing there was some shelter from the wind—it was cold enough in the country on Christmas Eve.

But the nuns and priests of the church just looked at him with kind and compassionate eyes,
Pray for him and say God will take care of him.

But Pawidi didn't want prayers and blessings, he just wanted some hot water, food that would fill his stomach, a place where he could sleep through the night without leading him to meet God,
But sadly, not here.

The priest was already angry, and Paviti had no choice but to leave.

In fact, he should have had many places to go at night,
For example, fast food restaurants open all night, such as 24-hour convenience stores,
But these places don't allow homeless people to enter unless he has a gun.

It's just a pity he lost his gun,
And he has been a homeless man for so long, and his body, which has become so weak, obviously cannot threaten anyone.

"...The sun is already slanting westward, and it is about to be blocked by the church building in front of us. The sun gradually loses its temperature, and the afterglow of the setting sun is gradually eroded by the night, accompanied by the chill in the evening."

"Damn it, the wind is blowing, and the cold wind is blowing on Paweiti's face, and Paweiti keeps cursing in his heart, walking back and forth on the street in front of the church, and at this time They haven’t gone home for Christmas Eve, and most of the people who are still on the street, like Paviti, are walking back and forth on the street quickly, just to absorb the last trace of heat from the evening sunset.”

"...But the setting sun still went down after all, lost the last ray of light, and the air seemed to become much cooler all of a sudden, Paviti looked at the place where the setting sun last appeared, followed by a biting cold wind, It made him shiver uncontrollably, and then hurriedly, and quickened his pace, walking back and forth in front of this church even faster."

"He needs to keep going back and forth like this until tomorrow when the sun rises on the other side again because of the thin clothes on him and the cold temperature around him."

"Damn it, damn it...how can it be windy tonight! Damn it..."

"Paweidi kept swearing, the cold wind never blew even once, and it would take away the little body heat from his body."

"Pawei Ti folded his arms and walked back and forth quickly."

"At this moment, a drunkard staggered out of the nearby fast food restaurant, still smelling of alcohol, and carrying two bags of things in one hand."

"People walking up and down the street cast unfriendly glances, but when they saw the gun in the other hand of the drunkard, they turned their heads again, and they didn't even dare to look again."

"Who knows if this alcoholic, obviously a gang member, suddenly got into the mood and shot these homeless people and watched them scurry like rats out of a hole."

"It's the same with Paviti. He lowered his head and walked back and forth quickly without looking at that person."

"But that person... walked towards Paviti."
