I really don't want to be a novelist

Chapter 402 Editor-in-chief Lou speaks much harder

"Baby, what are you looking at?"

Capital New District.in the room.

The man told the story of "Kite" to his precious daughter as usual today. The updated content of "Kite" today,

After finishing speaking, I saw my daughter sitting on a small stool, propping her chin, raising her head, looking out of the window all the time, thinking.

"Hmm... am I watching sparrows?"

"Did you see that?"

"No."

The little girl shook her head,
"Father, what did you say there are sparrows? Can the sparrows take me up? After the sparrows take me to fly, can I let them take me wherever I want?"

So the little girl was thinking about this,

The man couldn't help laughing when he heard that,

But before he could speak, he saw his little girl sitting on the stool and sighing.

"...But I am heavier than a kite, so much heavier, how many sparrows are needed to fly me up."

While speaking, the little girl sighed again.

The man held back and almost laughed out loud.

But immediately after, the little girl turned her head and asked the man again.

"Dad... do you think you can always tell me stories in the future?"

After asking this question, the man froze suddenly, and the original smile on his face also froze.

The little girl will grow up and be busy with more things, learn, grow up, and even form her own family.

But he will gradually relax as he gets older, but at that time, can he still tell his daughter any stories?

The man is a little uncomfortable.

He couldn't help but think about the comments about "Kite" again, whether the kite that broke its string and flew away was the 'paper kite' or the 'child'.

"Of course, as long as you are willing to listen, Dad will tell you all the time. Why do you ask such a question?"

The man paused, then rubbed his daughter's hair with a smile,

"...Then, when the author is not updated, is it okay?"

The little girl's eyes were bright, and she looked at her father expectantly.

It turns out that what my precious girl meant,
The man looked at his daughter and couldn't help but smile again, the sadness that suddenly surged in his heart was diluted a bit.

"I'm afraid this won't work."

"That's it... well, I don't know when this author will be able to write more."

The little girl sighed again, seeing her daughter's sudden adult appearance, the man couldn't help laughing again.

……

"...Dad, I remember when I was young, you didn't tell me any stories."

"Why didn't I tell you? You used to follow me behind, and when we were enjoying the cool downstairs, I told you from time to time. That's right, the children around came to listen."

"You can pull it off, Dad, you are telling horror stories, which scares the kid next door to wake up from nightmares at night, crying on the bed, and other parents come to the door."

"That's because you haven't heard enough. You listened so much, and I didn't see you too scared..."

in the noodle shop,
The owner of the noodle restaurant finished telling his son about the update of "Kite" today,

After the two of them paused for a while, they bickered here while packing up the noodle shop and preparing to go home.

"...Why didn't you frighten me? I shrank back in fright. If I hadn't repeatedly ordered you not to speak, you would still have continued to speak!"

"mom!"

The noodle shop owner's wife came over from outside the noodle shop at this time, and seemed to have heard what the two of them said, and said angrily.

The owner of the noodle shop laughed straight away, and the boy, a half-grown child, felt that he couldn't save face, so he yelled.

"Hey, that little man, you should listen to this kind of stories, like when I was young, my father, my grandpa told me all these ghost stories, so scared that I would shrink into bed at night, I didn’t dare to stick my feet or head out of the bed, for fear that a hand would suddenly come out and grab my ankle.”

"Bah, bah, bah... what are you talking about at night?"

The wife said angrily.

The noodle shop owner laughed again,

"... Besides, when you were young, you are not very old now. If you want to hear a story, you can do it anytime. I can tell you."

"Forget it, it's not very good."

"I still despise it."

"Okay, you two hurry up and go, you are still dawdling here, dawdling, noodle shop doesn't have to open tomorrow? You don't have to go to school tomorrow?"

The wife of the noodle shop owner interrupted the quarrel between the father and the father,

"It's late at night, and you haven't come back yet. I thought you two went fooling around somewhere, but you stayed in the noodle shop and didn't go home."

"Did you see, your mother is so stubborn. She is obviously worried that the two of us will come over to see again, and she is not forgiving."

"Tell me!"

……

Magic City, inside the house.

tonight,

Ji Zhuo slept soundly, it has nothing to do with readers' evaluation of "Kite",
It's just tiring.

Woke up early, and after typing and updating the words, I went back and forth to Yucheng to sign the authorization contract for the adaptation of "Seven Days of Hell".
When I came back, I buried my head in signing the book again.

In the middle of the night, I was so sleepy that I could hardly keep my eyes open.

Ji Zhuo went back to bed and fell asleep, sleeping soundly.

……

"Ding dong... ding dong..."

After a night, Ji Zhuo slept until noon the next day.

When the mobile phone's notification sounded for the first time, Ji Zhuo just turned over,

When the second sound came, he just pulled up the quilt and covered his ears.

In the end, when the news rang out from time to time, Ji Zhuo yawned and got up from the bed.

"Gollum..."

At the sink, Ji Zhuo washed and brushed his teeth, looking at the mobile phone placed against the wall.

Messages from several contacts are displayed on the phone.

One of the messages from Editor-in-Chief Lou was the earliest,
It was probably sent in the early morning, but Ji Zhuo didn't hear it at all.

"Editor-in-Chief Lou: Mr. Ji, the sales volume of "The Shepherd Boy in Search of Immortals" has exceeded 400 million.

Editor-in-Chief Lou: The translation and pre-publication work of your other works have basically been prepared.

Editor-in-Chief Lou: Delwin Press is going to continue to publish overseas editions of your other works. "

After adding some restrictive clauses and shortening the authorization period, Delwin Publishing House obtained the overseas publishing authorization for basically all works published by Ji Zhuo in China.

The first to be published was "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals".
Now it seems that the publishing work of other books is also ready,
Prepare to continue publishing in turn as planned.

"Editor-in-Chief Lou: The next thing we plan to publish overseas is "Star Dream", which you just finished, Mr. Ji.

Editor-in-Chief Lou: In view of the overseas publication of your work "Star Dream", Delwin Publishing House will continue to increase investment in publicity resources for your work in the near future.

Editor-in-Chief Lou: ...Well, there is something that I may need to trouble you, Mr. Ji.

Editor-in-Chief Lou: It's the autograph book for the overseas edition of "Star Dream"..."

Regarding what Editor-in-Chief Lou said earlier, Ji Zhuo had no opinion at all.

After all, this was all agreed before, and now it is only proceeding as expected.

But for the signing of the book, no matter how long it takes, Ji Zhuo's hands feel a little sore when he hears it.

And on the other side,
Delwin Press, in the office,
Editor-in-Chief Lou was still facing the computer, yawning non-stop.

Last night, she wanted to watch "The Ordinary and the Great" for a while before the takeaway,
After the takeaway came, I thought it was time to eat, so I took a look.

After I finished eating, I thought about it, and after watching it for a while, I packed up the takeaway box and went back.

Finally... Editor-in-Chief Lou successfully finished reading "The Ordinary and the Great".

It’s just that the employees who arrived early in the morning found that Editor-in-Chief Lou came very early today—in fact, Editor-in-Chief Lou didn’t leave strictly speaking.

I just lay down on the sofa in the office and slept for a while in the morning.

"Clumsy and extraordinary: how much?"

Ok?
Seeing the message that popped up suddenly on the computer screen, I saw that Mr. Ji had replied to the message.

Editor-in-Chief Lou became energetic all at once.
