Reborn to be a scholar and a copywriter to buy a house nationwide

Chapter 55
"Then why don't we contact [Mouse] directly to ask him for a manuscript, so that it will be published in our publishing house, which will be more helpful to our reputation."

Peng Huan's eyes lit up when he heard this, it's a good idea.

"Try to contact, can you contact the author."

"I seem to have heard that the author named [Mouse] is very mysterious."

"If it doesn't work, you should contact the author's editor in private. It seems that he is the only one who has seen the author, and the relationship should be good."

After listening to the president's words, Xu Chang stood up and said, "Okay! I'll contact you right away."

An hour later, Zhao Liang received a call from the director of Huaxia Publishing House himself.

"Hello, I am the director of the distribution department of Huaxia Publishing House. My name is Xu Chang. Are you Mr. Zhao Liang?"

"Hello, I am! Is there anything you can do for me?" Zhao Liang thought in his heart, this call might be to publish "Tomb Raider Notes 2".

"That's right, we want to publish "Tomb Raider Notes 2", and we had a great time working together on the first one."

Zhao Liang thought, as expected, he really came here for this book.

Zhao Liang said: "That's it. The author has explained in advance that the publication will be divided into [-] points. Can you agree?"

Xu Chang agreed immediately: "No problem, this division is acceptable to our publishing house."

Before Xu Chang made this call, the president had guessed that the percentage of share would be increased.

It is also estimated that it will cost fifteen points, and I can directly agree to it with a special confession.

Because other publishing houses may hold a meeting to discuss it after hearing it. What they want is to agree in advance and sign the contract directly.

This surprised Zhao Liang. After hearing that the share was negotiated, other magazines gave a reply. As expected of Huaxia Publishing House, it is courageous.

"Then when will your publisher come over and sign the contract?"

"I'll arrange for someone to come over in the afternoon."

"The matter is over, I still have one thing to ask Editor Zhao for help?"

Zhao Liang was confused by what he said, what can he do to help?

"Director Xu, please tell me."

"That's right, our publishing house wants to ask the author [Mouse] for a novel to be published after "Tomb Raiders Notes 2" is off the shelves."

"We haven't been able to contact the author himself. We have no choice but to ask Editor Zhao for help. Can you tell me the author's number, or help pass it on?"

"Okay, I can promise you that I will definitely convey it to you, but I don't know if I am willing or not. What price are you willing to pay?"

"400 million, plus a [-]-point share, we want novels about youth campuses."

"Editor Zhao, help me pass it on."

"We are very sincere about the draft."

"Okay, I'll give you an answer tomorrow at the latest." After hearing this, Zhao Liang felt that he was very sincere, and the price was good.

After hanging up the phone, I checked the time, and it was not yet Sun Chao's rest time.

Zhao Liang felt that Sun Chao should be very busy now!
Now that the book is finished, it's not like before. I skipped classes to see how much I earned, which should be the reason for the college entrance examination soon.

If Sun Chao knew that Zhao Liang thought so, he would have a look on his face, brother, I am doing voluntary labor now, do you know that I am delaying myself, paying attention to my little money.

Sun Chao received a call from Zhao Liang at noon.

"Is there a lot of rewards today?"

After Sun Chao came out of the shower, he habitually picked up his phone and saw Zhao Liang's missed call.Just broadcast it.

"Brother! Can't it be something else if I make a phone call? You've lost money." Now that Zhao Liang and Sun Chao are getting better at each other, they speak more casually.

"Then you big editor is so busy, can you have time to call and chat with me?" Sun Chao teased.

"There is something, but it's not a reward!"

"Then tell me, boss, and listen, little one." Sun Chao said funny.

"No kidding, it's like this, Huaxia Publishing House couldn't find you, they found me. They wanted to ask you to book a novel, a youth campus novel of the "Why Shengxiaomo" type."

"The other party bid 400 million plus [-] points!"

Zhao Liang went on to say: "They also signed the publishing rights of "Tomb Raider Notes 2". I also followed your suggestion and quoted [-] points of share. The other party agreed very straightforwardly."

"There are also other publishing houses who have contacted me, but they all reply that they will reply after discussing it. Only Huaxia Publishing House is the most straightforward and directly agreed."

"Look at your time. After all, you are in the most important year now. If you can't do it, you won't take it."

After Zhao Liang finished speaking, Sun Chao asked, "When are they going to ask for it?"

"In two months, they want to publish it after "Tomb Raider Notes 2"."

"But do you have time to write? You are now a senior in high school."

"I wrote it when I found time, and I already have an idea in my mind."

"It's not that you don't know my grades. I finished my second year of high school, and I'm still in school. I just cherish the few high school life."

Zhao Liang couldn't help but admire Sun Chao's IQ. There are several high school seniors who can be so relaxed. Only his sister, who has good grades, spends all day studying at night.

"Then I'll call Huaxia Publishing House."

"Row!"

After hanging up the phone, Sun Chao was counting the time.

It’s mid-December now, so I’ll take the time to write some if I have time, and if I can’t, I’ll spend a few days during the winter vacation to write, so I have enough time.

What I have to do now is to think about which one to write. I will be free and fine. Sun Chao recalled in his mind the popular youth campus novels in his previous life.

Sun Chao wanted to write a sweet campus novel.

It's sweeter again, still in high school, with a work plot.

correct!

"To Our Simple Little Beauty"

The original author is Zhao Qianqian, published in September 22, the full text is about [-] words.

It tells the story of Chen Xiaoxi, a silly and energetic girl who has been chasing after her childhood sweetheart Jiang Chen since she was a student. The schoolmaster Jiang Chen is unmoved by Chen Xiaoxi who is chasing after her fiercely. After graduating from university, they each embarked on their own career paths.

Chen Xiaoxi chose the manga she liked, and Jiang Chen became a doctor.

After years of emotional precipitation, Jiang Chen chose to face his heart directly, and finally came together.

Started to sprinkle dog food like crazy.

Sun Chao was still thinking, how can he write [-] words in one night by taking a vacation with the teacher at night.

On Zhao Liang's side, after calling Sun Chao, he stayed where he was for a while.

He was thinking about whether he should tell the editor-in-chief about it. After thinking about it for a while, he still planned to say it. After all, he is still receiving a starting salary.

Absolutely, go to the editor-in-chief's office.

Knocked on the door, walked in, looked at the editor-in-chief's face, it was okay, there was a smile, and I was in a good mood today.

Zhao Liang said: "Huaxia Publishing House, I want to contact Sun Chao to make an appointment for a manuscript, and they called me."

Zhao Liang never finished speaking, he wanted to test whether the editor-in-chief would be angry.

Unexpectedly, the editor-in-chief laughed instead.

Said: "The editor-in-chief received a call from the president of Huaxia Publishing House, saying that he asked Sun Chao to make an appointment for a manuscript. I'll see when you come to me."

Zhao Liang broke out in a cold sweat, each of them was a thousand-year-old fox, fortunately he didn't have any careful thoughts, otherwise there would be no scum left.

"Go and call the author. It would be best if you can help me get a manuscript, so that Huaxia Publishing House still owes us a favor."

Zhao Liang heard what the editor-in-chief said, and he was glad that he didn't say everything just now.

"That's fine, the editor-in-chief, I'll go out first."

"Wait a minute, let me tell you something."

When Zhao Liang heard this, he immediately regained his energy. He had a premonition that the news was related to him.

"Editor, tell me."

"That's right. The higher-ups are still discussing promoting you to the position of deputy editor-in-chief. The original deputy editor-in-chief, Lao Huang, should also retire, so make way for the newcomer."

Zhao Liang was overjoyed after hearing this, and an unconscious expression appeared on his face.

The editor-in-chief poured cold water on it again and said, "But!"

When Sun Chao heard it, his heart skipped a beat. He was afraid of But, and the editor-in-chief continued, "But your qualifications are too low. Many old editors are waiting for this opportunity."

"If you want to sit in this position, it depends on whether your two books can reach a higher level."

The editor-in-chief changed his tone and said with a smile: "I rarely see newcomers who are as lucky as you, but luck is not for everyone. Hold a thigh and make a good relationship with Sun Chao. As long as His books have always been at this level, and you will rise to the top when you start."

Zhao Liang was very happy to hear that, and he also felt that he was very lucky.

"Good editor-in-chief, I will maintain a good relationship with Sun Chao."

The editor-in-chief heard what Zhao Liang said, and said, "I also have selfish intentions. If you work hard, I may be able to change my position because of your promotion."

"Good editor, I will do a good job"

"Then go out and get busy."

Walking out of the office, Zhao Liang was still in a state of surprise that he had the chance to be the deputy editor in less than a year since he came to the starting point.

Zhao Liang was still pleasantly surprised, but Sun Chao's plan was in vain.

The idea is beautiful, but in the end it lost to reality.

In the evening, the class teacher did not approve Sun Chao's leave, but arranged a task for him.

Come out!
Sun Chao complained wildly in his heart, how could it be so coincidental.

In the following days, Sun Chao no longer had a time code word.

Time passed day by day, and finally ushered in the winter vacation.There are two days left before the final exam. After the exam, this semester is considered to be over.

During this time, Sun Chao was too busy to take care of other things. He continued to play basketball with Fatty Wang Bin at noon. In addition to the evening self-study class, he had to use his brains during the day to give the students papers.

Because the teachers found that Sun Chaoyue's questions were particularly tricky, which was very helpful for students to expand their questions.

In this way, Sun Chao came to the winter vacation in this kind of life in the last month of the last semester of senior high school.

During this period of time, the fat man has lost at least twenty catties, and now he is not so thin. This is why the fat man is very tired, but he can persist.

But "To Our Simple Little Beauty" is still just a name.

The night before the final exam.

dorm room
It was almost eleven o'clock, but most of the dormitories in the third year of high school were still lit with candles.

But Sun Chao had already fallen asleep, and the other roommates were still staying up all night fighting.
