Rebirth of Rural Literary Life

Chapter 521 Xiangjiang Version "Heroes"

Yu Xiangming knew that if they didn't accept this deal, Lin Yanan would definitely find another hotel. She had a choice, so they didn't have much room to negotiate the price.

But if his own restaurant wants to take over this business, it will inevitably increase its manpower, and even rebuild the back kitchen. He estimated based on his past experience that the back kitchen needs at least four people, and someone has to deliver meals to the crew. To recruit five more people, you have to buy a delivery vehicle.

This devotion made Yu Xiangming hesitant. Seeing that his wife didn't speak, he knew that she was also hesitating.

"Yanan, it's okay for our restaurant to provide meals for the film crew, but you have to ensure that there is always a film crew. We have invested a lot in this business."

Lin Yanan was a little surprised, it seemed that Liu Hongmei's family was her husband's head.

"Brother-in-law, I can't give you this guarantee, but we can sign a contract to limit your hotel to be the exclusive supplier of our film and television city. Sign the contract once a year, what do you think?"

Lin Yanan felt that she was very sincere in naming the exclusive supplier. Now that she is Party A, it is impossible to make too many concessions to Liu Hongmei and his wife.

Seeing Lin Yanan's expression, Liu Hongmei and his wife knew that this matter was not easy to talk about. The couple ran upstairs and muttered for a while, and finally agreed.

After signing the contract, the couple began to prepare intensively. Liu Hongmei tried to find someone to re-arrange the back kitchen, while her husband Yu Xiangming returned to the factory where he used to work.

He is going to poach people, and now that he has made up his mind, he will burn the boat, just like he opened a restaurant before.

He found his former apprentice and offered him twice as much salary as working in the factory, thus prying a mature chef from the factory.

As a result, two kitchen assistants in the factory heard the news, and they also came over. The double salary made them excited.

Ever since, Yu Xiangming recruited these two people as well, and half of the back kitchen staff in the factory were poached.

So soon there were rumors in the factory that Yu Xiangming went to Hantun to open a restaurant to make a fortune, and poached all the people in the canteen in the factory, and the salary was several times higher than that in the factory.

In this way, Hantun reappeared in the mouths of some ordinary people in Pingxian County in a way that could not be achieved, and became a place where making a fortune is like picking up money, so that more people with dreams of getting rich poured into the small village of Hantun.

When He Ping was idle at home, the enterprise was not idle. Professor Guo Wenxing from Jinkela decided to expand outward after taking stock of the development of the feed factory in the first half of this year.

Unlike chicken farms and pig farms, Professor Guo Wenxing locked Jin Kela's first stop out of Liao Province in Nanhe Province, a province in the Central Plains, which is also a major agricultural province in China.

In addition to the fact that Wei Feng went to Bao'an to open a pig farm, Hantun's team-run enterprises have all achieved their staged goals of going out of Liaoning Province.

Jiang Yongan, who was far away in Yangzhou, called He Ping after three months and reported the good news.

The first volume of "Heroes" went on sale in Xiangjiang, and 20 copies were sold in one month.

We must know that Xiangjiang is different from the mainland, with a population of only a few million. It is really rare to sell 20 copies in a month.

As for the reason why "Aspirations of Heroes" became an instant hit, it was mainly because Mr. Jin Yong, the owner of Hong Kong newspaper "Ming Pao", a master of martial arts novels, published a comment in the newspaper: "Annals of Heroes", a journey of counting heroes, has an ups and downs. The sound, after reading it, my heart is full of excitement, and I really have to spit it out quickly.

Later, the editor of Xiangjiang "Ming Pao" commented: This work is a masterpiece of martial arts novels since Mr. Jin Yong sealed the pen.

Speaking of "Ming Pao", it was jointly funded by Mr. Jin Yong and Mr. Shen Baoxin and founded in 1959. It publishes one page a day.In the early days of the publication, Shen Baoxin was in charge of the business, Jin Yong was in charge of editorial affairs, and Pan Yuesheng was their assistant.

Ni Kuang once said: "Ming Pao's survival depends entirely on Jin Yong's martial arts novels."

In Xiangjiang at that time, Jin Yong's martial arts novels were serialized in the "Business Daily" and already had a large number of readers.Many people started to pay attention to "Ming Pao" in order to watch Jin Yong's martial arts.Slowly Jin Yong's martial arts novels laid a solid foundation for "Ming Pao", coupled with Shen Bao's new management methods, "Ming Pao"'s advertising business rose steadily.

After 20 years of development, "Ming Pao" has become a major newspaper with a daily sales of [-] copies, and is one of the most important newspapers in the Hong Kong media circle.

Benefiting from Mr. Jin Yong's martial arts novels, most readers of "Ming Pao" are obsessed with martial arts novels.

Since Mr. Jin Yong's last martial arts novel "The Deer and Cauldron" was completed in 1972, although newcomers and new works have been emerging in the world of martial arts novels in Hong Kong, the decline of martial arts novels is already inevitable.

Especially in the 80s, the saying that martial arts novels are on the decline is rampant.

Movies, TV dramas, games, animation, audiences originally belonging to martial arts novels are constantly diverted by other forms of entertainment, and the silence of this literary form seems inevitable.

At this moment, a martial arts novel from the mainland on the other side suddenly appeared, and was highly praised by the martial arts giant Mr. Jin Yong. How could fans of martial arts novels not be curious about this novel.

Numerous fans of martial arts novels flock to bookstores, wanting to read the martial arts novels that Mr. Jin Yong is full of praise.

This situation directly led to the fact that the first volume of the [-] copies of "Heroes" originally printed by Universal Publishing House was sold out in just one week, and the publishing house had to rush to print [-] copies. Days sold out again.

Until Jiang Yongan called He Ping, the first volume of the Xiangjiang version of "Heroes" was sold again with 30 copies, and it is expected to be sold out in October.

Jiang Yongan told He Ping on the phone that he had already discussed with Liang Yuejin, and taking advantage of the good situation now, he would hurry up and release the second volume of "Heroes" and the first volume of "A Walk in the Body" that Cha Haisheng independently completed. The release is also on the agenda.

Since Universal Publishing House was handed over to Jiang Yong'an in the middle of the year, He Ping didn't ask any more questions.

After some discussion, the two of them decided to move the "Heroes", which had already been released to the fifth volume in China, to Xiangjiang. After all, Xiangjiang is the place where modern martial arts novels emerged, and it is also the place where the atmosphere of martial arts novels is the strongest.

Facts have proved that the choice of the two is very correct.

Relying on its strong strength, "Heroes" quickly broke into a world belonging to Universal Publishing House in Xiangjiang Book Market. If the publication of subsequent books can be so smooth, then within three years, Universal Publishing House will Become the mainstay of Xiangjiang publishing industry.

The news that Jiang Yongan brought to He Ping made him a little excited. He didn't expect that "Heroes" after the magic reform of the Three Swordsmen of Beijing University would be so strongly sought after by Xiangjiang readers.
