I turned out to be top-notch!

Chapter 95 Pen Name
Late at night, in an office building on the outskirts of Peking.

On the floor where "Demon Fire" magazine is located, an office is brightly lit.

All the employees have gone off work, except for the editor-in-chief Hu Rui, who is still sitting in the office, staring at his round eyes, eating instant noodles and staring at the computer screen.

Finally, after reading the entire 20-word "Celebrating More Than Years", Hu Rui leaned back in front of his office chair and muttered blankly: "No more?"

His thoughts refocused.

Hu Rui's eyes were frighteningly bright.

"At first I thought it was martial arts, but I didn't expect it to be fictional history. I didn't expect a newcomer to be able to write a costumed conspiracy novel so well!"

"He's not a newbie, he's definitely an old bird!"

"Time travel, intrigue, suspense, love, family, friendship...there are so many elements in one novel!"

"There are not only struggles between father and son, direct descendants and concubines, but also the struggle between political power and family, emperor and ministers, dignitaries and common people..."

"I have written so many stories in just 20 words, but I feel that it is far from officially over. It will take at least 200 million words to end!"

"A novel of more than 200 million words..."

Thinking of this, Hu Rui hesitated. After all, the longest novels serialized in "Demon Fire" magazine only have about one million words, and most of them end at about three to four million words.

But the novel "Celebrating More Than Years" is at least 200 million words long!
But when he thinks of the vivid characters in Qing Yu Nian, such as the blind boy, the girl with chicken legs, the lovely grandmother, and the seemingly sinister and sinister Chen Pingping, Hu Rui feels itchy.

"Signed!"

……

In fact, Zhou Jixian is also equally itchy.

Early the next morning, Zhou Jixian got up and washed up with panda eyes. Last night he couldn't resist the temptation and secretly read the remaining [-] words of "Celebrating More Than Years".

As a result, I didn't fall asleep until almost four o'clock in the morning.

"Compared with similar themes, "Celebrating More Than Years" is definitely an ancient legend with complex plot and far-reaching scope."

Zhou Jixian was brushing his teeth while thinking about "Celebrating More Than Years": "Modern people travel to ancient times, and all they convey to that era is the concept of 'equality'..."

“This may be the most attractive shining point!”

After washing up, Zhou Jixian had breakfast. When he arrived at the company, he was warmly received by editor-in-chief Hu Rui.

After a chat, Zhou Jixian walked out of the editor-in-chief's office in confusion, took out his cell phone and called Zhou Dingran who was far away in Hengdian: "Dingran, do you have the contact information of your author friend?"

"what happened?"

"Editor-in-Chief Hu said that this movie will celebrate more than [-] years, and we have signed a contract with "Demon Fire"!"

"..."

Hengdian hotel, double bed room.

Zhou Dingran sat up suddenly, holding his cell phone and said in surprise: "Signed?"

"Yes, I signed it. This novel is indeed good and the plot is very attractive. "Demon Fire" is ready to be signed into the long-form serialization area."

"That's great! Wait a minute..."

Zhou Dingran's mind suddenly changed and he asked quickly: "My friend is abroad. In a short time, he may not go back to China alone to sign a contract..."

"It's okay. Yaohuo supports electronic signing. Just sign on the screen of your mobile phone."

"Do I need my real name?"

"Yes, in addition to the pen name, the ID number and personal name are also required. This is also convenient for remittance of manuscript fees, but you can rest assured that your friend, Yaohuo is also very famous in domestic magazines, and the author's information protection is very important. It's top-notch, and even I, the editor-in-chief, don't have the chance to know the author's personal information." Zhou Dingran scratched his head when he heard this.

He really wanted to claim the creative rights of this novel, but it wouldn't be appropriate for an idol singer like "Zhou Dingran" to suddenly write such a novel, right?Not to mention the public, Zhou Dingran himself didn’t believe it.

Definitely a ghostwriter!
If someone asked him to code on the spot, the secret would be revealed, and he wouldn't be able to code a single word.

Although I feel that this request is unlikely to occur, in the short term, I can hide it if I can.

It’s never too late to find the right opportunity to expose yourself.

Of course, if it is with Haijiao.com, the contract can be signed through Haijiao.com, a third party, so Zhou Dingran's personal information will not be leaked to the other party.

But now I am signing a contract with Demon Queen Magazine privately, which requires my ID number and name.

incomprehensible.

As for the pen name?
Zhou Dingran had already thought about it and asked him to bring an umbrella instead of a knife on a rainy night.

"By the way, Dingran, does your author friend have any remaining manuscripts?" Zhou Jixian asked again.

Zhou Dingran said: "It seems so, what's wrong?"

"Great, send it to me first to satisfy my craving."

"..."

……

Today is the third day in Hengdian. Zhou Dingran is still waiting in the hotel for news that the filming location of "Fireworks on Earth" will be moved.

At present, the crew has almost assembled various actors, and the filming has entered the formal process.

During the day, Zhou Dingran received a call from director Lu Tao, asking Zhou Dingran to go to the set to feel the atmosphere of the set. At the same time, a stylist and makeup artist, Zhang Qingqing, was arranged for Zhou Dingran.

Zhang Qingqing's name is very resounding in the industry. She is good at various types of makeup such as modern costumes. She was once the stylist and makeup artist for many top artists. Now that she is working alone, her reputation is even more impressive.

Although she is only in her early 30s, she has five or six apprentices under her, and her travel arrangements are comparable to those of A-list stars.

It was Lu Tao's own intention to assign Zhang Qingqing to Zhou Dingran. After all, Zhou Dingran is the main acting supporter of this drama, and the styling and makeup cannot be compromised.

What's more, Lu Tao also knew about Zhou Dingran's popularity on Douyin, so he thought of taking advantage of the situation to promote the show to mention Zhou Dingran more and film Zhou Dingran's life on the set.

Not to mention, when a video of Zhou Dingran’s life on the set was posted to Douyin by the crew, various data also increased sharply.

"Human Fireworks" also has an official promotional account on Douyin, but the daily daily routines posted by the crew on weekdays only have a few hundred likes at most, and even the videos of the male and female protagonists only have tens of thousands of likes.

But when Zhou Dingran's video appeared on the official account of "Human Fireworks", the number of clicks and likes increased almost exponentially.

The most typical one is the video of Zhou Dingran and Shen Qi's duel yesterday, which was edited and posted online. Now it has 79 likes.

You know, the number of fans of "Fireworks on Earth" is only [-] to [-]!

The crew also seemed to have found the traffic password in an instant, which prompted Lu Tao to recall Zhou Dingran in advance. Even if there was no role, he still wanted Zhou Dingran to stay in the crew.

After all, he signed a contract, and Zhou Dingran also has a certain professionalism. Even if he was photographed randomly, he did not get angry. He smiled and said hello to the camera from time to time.

In the evening, "Fireworks in the World" came to an end. Before Zhou Dingran left, he heard some news from the crew during the chat.

The first is that "Fireworks in the World" will go to Qiantang City tomorrow to officially enter the plot and speed up the filming progress.

The second is that the two agencies of Huang Junsheng and Shen Qi started the scandal hype mode to warm up the drama "Fireworks in the World".

The third is the fifth season of "The Masked Singer", which will premiere tonight.
