my doctor husband

Chapter 35

"The deposit is only [-]?" It's really not what it used to be, and Liang Hongming's net worth has also increased.

"If the sales volume is good, it can be far more than this number."

Seeing that Liang Hongming was silent for a while, Xu Xiyuan quickly took out the contract and asked him to sign it.Liang Hongming rolled up his sleeves, solemnly signed his name on the contract, and said, "It's settled, you have to publicize it well, and strive to distribute [-] copies."

"No problem, you just need to cooperate with me. Then I won't bother you. I'll come to you when the manuscript is almost done." Seeing that the work was done, Xu Xiyuan smiled like a flower.

"Okay, worry about it."

"We have to strike while the iron is hot, and I deal with it as quickly as possible."

Liang Hongming took it over, looked at it and said, "The manuscript is here, I have to revise it carefully."

"No, just take a look. We have to hurry up and get the book out immediately, and this cover." Xu Xiyuan took out the cover design sample again, but Liang Hongming didn't even read it, and put it together with the manuscript.

"Mr. Liang, this time you have to go out yourself and let old Mr. Liu Yilun write a few words of recommendation." She continued to order.

"I'm afraid this is not very good?" Liang Hongming was a little uncertain.

"Elder Liu supported you even when you appeared on TV, and the publication of books is definitely more supportive. And let me tell you, once Mr. Liu recommends it to you, the sales will be at least [-] more copies."

"Let me try it. It doesn't count what I said to Mr. Liu." Liang Hongming was a little absent-minded.

"With a student like you, it's an honor to Mr. Liu. He won't disagree."

Liang Hongming became a little impatient: "Okay, okay, I'll go find him later." He stood up and tidied his clothes, took the manuscript and the cover, and walked outside. When he went out, he stumbled. Almost hit the door and stumbled out.

Xu Xiyuan looked at the distraught Liang Hongming, and said eccentrically, "Man, once he becomes famous, he gets dizzy and can't find his way out!"

Liang Hongming came to Liu Yilun's home, Liu Yilun didn't say anything to him, and invited him to play chess.

After playing for more than ten minutes, Liu Yilun suddenly said: "I watched what you said on TV. Although some of your views are open to question, the style is lively and the audience likes it. Overall, it's not bad."

Liang Hongming was overjoyed, and took the opportunity to present the manuscript and cover: "Mr. Liu, a publishing house wants to publish a book for this lecture, and I want you to write a recommendation."

"No hurry, finish this game first." Liu Yilun's tone was always so calm.

Liang Hongming had no choice but to be patient, but his eyes were always fixed on the clock on the wall.

Seeing these changes in Liang Hongming's details, Liu Yilun suddenly swept away the chess pieces: "You are playing chess now, every move is aggressive, it seems that you have a plan in mind, but in fact you are just eager for quick success...I hope you can realize this yourself, pressure pressure Your temper."

Liang Hongming was a little embarrassed and kept silent.

Liu Yilun picked up the manuscript on the table and asked, "How should I write your recommendation?"

Liang Hongming broke out in a cold sweat.

"I read what you said from the beginning to the end. There is no problem with telling stories, but you can't be too frivolous. For example, when you talk about Su Shi and Chaoyun, it's out of place. It's his life emotion, it's a tragedy, but you made it Isn't this the opposite of Yingying Yanyan's love story?" Although Liu Yilun's tone was not harsh, every sentence touched Liang Hongming's heart.

Liang Hongming hurriedly explained: "The audience loves to hear this."

"There are so many things the audience loves to hear, pornography, violence, black-bellied schemes, do you have to talk about these?!"

Liang Hongming was speechless.

Liu Yilun picked up his cover again and looked at it: "Well, master of Chinese studies! What a joke! Can you wear such a big hat on your head?! Let me tell you, after Mr. Qian Zhongshu died, there is no master today, master Where? They're all in the coffin!"

Liang Hongming was shocked. He opened the cover and saw that it really read: Chinese New Talent, Huicheng Cultural Celebrity, Future Chinese Master Liang Hongming's super popular works.

Liang Hongming hurriedly explained: "Teacher, this, this is not written by me, it was randomly added by the publishing house..."

Liu Yilun pushed away the manuscript and said angrily: "No matter who added it, it is your responsibility to blame it on you!"

Liang Hongming was too frightened to make a sound.

Liu Yilun said: "Liang Hongming, I've told you many times that young people can't help being flamboyant, which is normal, but you should understand the principle of sticking to the golden mean and going too far!"

Liang Hongming angrily tore off the cover: "Teacher, I was wrong, I was wrong. I have been a little dizzy for a while, I can't publish the book, I can't publish it! I have to calm down."

Liu Yilun didn't say a word.

Soon, Liang Hongming came to Xu Xiyuan's office again. She was very angry. Liang Hongming looked cautious and uneasy.

Xu Xiyuan said: "Mr. Liang, you have tricked me this time, and it's not easy."

Liang Hongming said: "Editor Xu, I'm sorry, I really can't publish this book."

"We don't steal, we don't rob, and it's not a pirated version. We have said well, why can't we suddenly release it?" Xu Xiyuan was very puzzled by this.

Liang Hongming knocked his head and said: "I didn't want to go out myself. I went to Mr. Liu to write a recommendation. Fortunately, Mr. Liu woke me up. Going on TV is enough publicity. I want to publish another book. The academic world can't scold me to death. Editor Xu, I'm sorry, I let you work for nothing."

"It's not a waste of time. It's all real money. For your book, I have already invested tens of thousands of yuan. You don't know. The machines in the printing factory are printing these two days. You can't tell now. Well, all my money was wasted."

"Anyway, I was the one who broke the contract first, and I will compensate you for the loss. Is that okay?"

"You pay? All right, give me 5 yuan, and let's forget about it."

"Fifty thousand? Is there that much money?"

"5 yuan, this is damages. I haven't asked you for liquidated damages yet."

"Too much, I don't have that much money for you."

"Then continue to publish the book. If Liu Yilun doesn't recommend it, he won't recommend it. I'll find someone else to recommend it."

"No, the book must not be published now. I don't have that much money to compensate you. I will give you 3 yuan. If you want it, you can take it. If you don't want it, you can go to court and sue me."

"Playing a rogue with me? You are a big doctor, playing a rogue?"

"It's not a rascal, it's helplessness. If I'm a rascal, I won't give you a penny."

"Mr. Liang, you can pay me [-] yuan, that's fine, but the copyright of this book must still be in my hands. If I don't sell it, I can't let others take advantage of it."

"You can hold it if you think it is useful."

Liang Hongming left in despair.

Back home, Zou Qin was watching TV.Liang Hongming wanted money to compensate the publisher for the loss, Zou Qin stood up in surprise and anger: "What? Pay her? Why?"

"She has invested a lot of money, but the book will not be published, and the loss cannot be borne by the family alone." Liang Hongming was also very helpless, and he was unreasonable first.

"After co-authoring, we didn't get a penny, and we had to pay 3 yuan. Why didn't we publish it?" Zou Qin couldn't accept it anyway.

"Honey, no matter what, you have to give me the money today, you must." Thinking of the teacher's gaze, Liang Hongming could only beg her.

"I won't give it, I want the money to earn it myself, this is my money." Zou Qin ignored him at all.

"I can't explain it to you. Give me the money. I earned the money. I can spend it as I want." Seeing that the soft ones were not good enough, Liang Hongming had no choice but to be tough.He opened the cabinet and found the passbook, and Zou Qin went up to grab it from him.

Liang Hong said softly: "Honey, listen to me, this book is going to be published, and it can't be published now. Now that I show my face on TV, many teachers in the department are not happy, especially Zhang Zhiye. You don't know, Xu Xiyuan If you want to package me, the whole thing is full of deceptive things, and you say that I am a rookie master of Chinese studies. How can I wear this hat? Once the book is published, my image will be ruined. I have to keep a low profile, not now Coming out doesn't mean never going out, there will be opportunities in the future, right? We have to take a long-term view, and we can't lose the big because of the small."

Zou Qin was still very reluctant: "Do you really want to pay? It's tens of thousands of dollars. If I had known earlier, I might as well have spent it."

"Make it up, feel at ease if you lose, my wife, don't worry, if you spend 30 today, I will definitely earn you 300 or [-] million in the future."

"Liang Hongming, you have to remember that this money is a loan from me, and you have to pay me back."

"Repay, double repay."

In the evening, when Liang Hongming and Zou Qin were having dinner at home, Liang's father called.

"Dad." Liang Hongming recognized his father's voice.

"Hongming, I saw your advertisement for Huicheng Daqu. This wine is very popular now. During the Chinese New Year, bring me two bottles to taste." Father Liang's voice was full of pride.

"Advertising? I haven't done any commercials before?" Liang Hongming had no impression of what kind of advert it was.

"Obviously it's you, your mother and I saw it for real, we can't be wrong." Father Liang's tone was very certain.

"Come on, I have to see what's going on." Liang Hongming put down the phone, turned on the computer, and searched for Daqu advertisements in Huicheng.A Youku video popped up a video box, in which Liang Hongming was talking eloquently, next to a picture of a bottle of wine, the voice was not Liang Hongming's at all.

The advertisement sound is: Huicheng Daqu, the best wine, the most cultured wine, the favorite wine of Liang Hongming, a cultural celebrity in Huicheng, take a sip, and miss it for a lifetime.

Liang Hongming was furious: "They are too courageous."

Zou Qin also looked at it, and said: "People are really afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. You have a roll call, and everything depends on you."
