The Great Era of Rebirth: 1993

   Chapter 472, Clockwork Girl Becomes Popular 1 (Subscribe!)

   On the way back, everyone separated.

  Lilith and Xie Qi followed Liao Yun to the market to buy vegetables.

   Zhang Xuan and Tao Ge discussed the issue of publishing while walking.

   Passing by a video store, Zhang Xuan became interested temporarily and went in for a stroll.

   After looking for it, he was a little disappointed that he couldn't find the movie of the same name of "Exodus".

   Tao Ge asked: "What are you looking for?"

   Zhang Xuan replied: "Exodus."

   Tao Ge said: "This is a very early movie, do you still watch it?"

   Zhang Xuan told her: "I think of something."

   Tao Ge said, "Come with me, my sister will take you to a place."

   Zhang Xuan nodded and stopped a taxi with her.

   After more than ten minutes, the two entered a large video store.

  Tao Ge introduced: "This is almost the largest video store in London. If it is not here, it is estimated that I will not be able to find it."

   Tao Ge explained his intention to the store manager, and finally asked, "Is there any?"

   The store manager recalled: "I don't remember very well, but it was there in the past, but I don't know if it's sold out later?

  Please wait a moment, I'll look for you. "

   Having said that, the manager went to the deepest part of the shop.

   After a good search, the manager found 3 discs from a corner after a few minutes:

   "Thank goodness God take care of you, and 3 more discs."

   Zhang Xuan didn't even think about it, he wanted it all.

When    returned to the apartment, the three of Lilith had not returned.

  Tao Ge said: "The wind and the hidden 10 million payment I received for you last time. I didn't bring the check. I will give it to you next time when I return to China."

   Zhang Xuan said yes.

  Tao Ge poured two cups of tea, one for Zhang Xuan and one for her to drink.

   She asked: "Liao Yun suddenly came to block the door this time, are you panicking?"

   Zhang Xuan looked into her eyes: "You seem to be waiting to see a play?"

  Tao Ge lifted Erlang's legs and said without hesitation: "Life is so boring, of course you should watch it if you have a play."

   Zhang Xuan gave her a white look: "I'm so sorry for disappointing you."

  Tao Ge teased: "I'm not disappointed. Liao Yun was obviously prepared to block the door this time. I'm just wondering how you will end up in the future?

  You ate someone's daughter, and you have to say no later, unless you marry Lilith. "

   Zhang Xuan took a sip of tea. He also had a headache about this problem.

  Tao Ge leaned over and asked, "Tell me the truth, don't Mi Jian, Shuangling and Lilith really want all three?"

   Zhang Xuan held the teacup in both hands: "Who do you think I can put down?"

   Tao Ge was stunned for a while, then giggled.

   Zhang Xuan was speechless: "Can't you pay attention to your image in front of me?

   A person who is so intelligent and elegant in front of people, how can he come to me? "

   Heisi's long legs swayed and swayed gently, Tao Ge didn't care: "I have no image in front of you for a long time, why should I live so tired?"

   After that, she asked again: "I'm really worried for you, you have to choose someone to marry in the future, right?"

   Zhang Xuan ignored her.

   He drank the tea in one breath, put the cup on the coffee table, got up and went into the study.

   Seeing that Tao Ge was about to follow up, Zhang Xuan frowned: "Can't you avoid suspicion? It won't look good when Lilith comes back."

  Tao Ge was disdainful, "Why avoid suspicion?"

   Zhang Xuan said, "What's the difference between men and women?"

  Tao Ge tilted his head: "Just don't think about me!"

   Zhang Xuan is helpless: "I want to write, I need a quiet environment."

   Hearing that he was going to write, Tao Ge stopped teasing him this time, and turned on the TV.

   Zhang Xuan said: "Turn down your voice."

  Tao Ge glanced at his back and really lowered his voice.

   After a while, the three of Lilith came back with large and small bags of vegetables.

   Knowing that Zhang Xuan was writing, several people consciously did not bother him.

   An hour later, Liao Yun took off her apron and said to Lilith, "Tingting, go and call Zhang Xuan for dinner."

  Lilith walked to the door of the study, quietly opened the crack of the door, and looked inside.

   Then closed the door softly again: "He is writing, don't disturb him for now."

   Then Lilith said, "I'll go get a bowl and leave some food for him."

   Hearing this, Tao Ge and Xie Qi looked at Liao Yun in unison, trying to hold back their laughter.

  Liao Yun's face is calm, but her heart is already bad. In the past 21 years, Tingting has never been so concerned about herself and her father.

   At this moment, Liao Yun was very heartbroken.

   Heartbroken at the same time, I felt that my decision was the right one. Fortunately, I didn't take the risk to forcefully interfere with my daughter's feelings.

   Do you think she doesn't want to interfere?

  No, Liao Yun really wants to intervene!

   Especially when she came back from Shangcun, especially when she learned that Zhang Xuan and Du Shuangling were dating, especially when Ruan Xiuqin showed her satisfaction with Du Shuangling, Liao Yun, a mother, was very angry.

   On that day, she held back her emotions and left the village with a smile, the former town she left.

The moment    left Qianzhen, Liao Yun, whose heart was scratched like a knife, wanted to call Zhang Xuan and scold him, and even wanted to give him two slaps.

  The emotional Liao Yun is Xiaodu's affectionate mother.

   Liao Yun, who can calm down, is a woman who considers all aspects of the overall situation.

   The acquaintance Mo Ruomu, Liao Yun who knew her daughter's temperament, returned to Shao City, she locked herself in her study for a long time, and listed several options on paper.

   Then weighed the pros and cons of various options, and finally she chose to endure.

   Actually, Liao Yun was very depressed when she made this decision.

   As long as she had the slightest chance to persuade Tingting to come back, she would not choose this way.

   She knew that her daughter's age was the most rebellious time, the time when she yearned for love the most, and she couldn't persuade her to return.

   She also knew that if she tried to persuade her forcibly, the mother and daughter would definitely fall out, and in the end they would fight with each other. This was the result that Liao Yun did not want to see.

   Around three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Xuan came out and went to the small toilet.

   Lilith on the sofa greeted him and asked, "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat some food first, the food will be warmed for you."

   Zhang Xuan glanced at the other three women on the sofa who were looking at him, and nodded: "Just a little hungry."

   "Go to the toilet, I'll serve you a meal." Lilith strode to the kitchen.

   Zhang Xuan glanced at Liao Yun again, and went into the bathroom without making a sound.

   He now has a feeling that Liao Yun is observing himself all the time.

  …

  After dinner, the four daughters went for a walk outside to digest food.

   Zhang Xuan entered the study and continued to write.

   Although I have written more than 6000 words today, I have not changed it yet.

  According to his past experience, it takes about one to two hours to revise three times.

  After 8 pm, Lilith came back, drinking coffee, watching TV, chatting, waiting in the living room...

  Tao Ge, Xie Qi and Lilith are all anxiously waiting for the call from the publishing house.

   They want to know the sales figures for Clockwork Girls in the UK today.

  Liao Yun has been watching TV calmly, acting indifferently. Just ears pricked up, listening intently to Tao Ge's guesses about today's data.

  Tao Ge said: "As long as there are 18,000 copies today, I will be satisfied."

  Xie Qi guessed: "I'm a little bolder, I guess 20,000 copies."

  Lilith said firmly: "It will not be less than 25,000 copies."

  Xie Qi was surprised: "So confident?"

  Lilith hooked her mouth: "When has he disappointed anyone?"

  Xie Qi smiled and said: "You are a typical love house and Wu. You must know that Harry Potter did not sell so well in the beginning."

  Lilith insisted: "Harry Potter's publishing house is not good, and the early publicity is not strong.

   This is Penguin Press! And I have read the two books three times, and the quality is incomparable. "

  Xie Qi told her: "Many things do not sell better if they are of better quality, but depends on the strength of publicity and market fit."

  Waiting anxiously outside, Zhang Xuan didn’t even know.

   After revising the "human world", he began to write letters.

   wrote a letter to Wen Hui and told her about her thoughts on "Exodus". The tune has been set, and it depends on her playing technique.

  Zhang Xuan put forward several views based on Maxim's performance characteristics.

The content of the    letter is not much, about 300 words.

After writing   , Zhang Xuan read it twice, then put the letter aside.

   His current mentality is no longer the mentality he had at GoodMAN yesterday. At that time, he was a little excited when he first remembered it, but now he has calmed down and looked at it very lightly.

  The reason why a pianist is a pianist depends on his personal playing style. Whether Wen Hui can succeed or not is not something he can control.

   I can only give an idea, the key is whether Wen Hui has been inspired?

   And I only know this idea, and I can't do anything else. My level is too low and I can't help too much.

   "Dangdangdangdangdangdangdangdangdangdangdangdangdangdang..."

   At 9 o'clock in the evening, just as the others were anxiously waiting, the Nokia that Tao Ge had placed on the coffee table suddenly rang.

The    ringtone is so kind and rhythmic.

   The four fell silent for a moment.

   Liao Yun got up and turned the TV to silent.

  Tao Ge picked up the phone: "hello...really?...thanku..."

   The call was not long, it only took about two minutes.

   Just as soon as the call ended, Tao Ge, who had been showing his demeanor just now, was so excited that he couldn't breathe.

   Seeing Tao Ge staring at him and not speaking, Xie Qi became anxious, leaned forward and asked, "How much?"

   Lilith's fingers wrapped around her, and she was so nervous.

  Tao Ge took a deep breath, eased his excitement, put down the phone, and said leisurely: "43,000 volumes."

  Xie Qi pia stood up, "How much?"

  Tao Ge sat up straight: "Penguin Publishing House just told me that Clockwork Girl sold 43,000 copies in the UK today, setting a record!"

   Liao Yun looked sideways and looked at Tao Ge without saying a word.

  Lilith was very quiet, very quiet, then suddenly stood up and ran straight to the study.

  Liao Yun glanced at Lilith, then her eyelids drooped, wondering what was going on in her mind?

   This time, regardless of whether Zhang Xuan wrote or not, Lilith, who was so excited, rushed in in one breath, bent over and kissed her, and said excitedly:

   "Husband, 43,000 copies! 43,000 copies!"

   Zhang Xuan put down the book and was shocked: "Sales data in the UK?"

  Lilith lay in his arms, "Mmmmm, one day's sales data."

   Zhang Xuan's eyes were round, and he was a little unconfident: "So many?"

  Lilith saw his expression and thought it was cute, then she wrapped her hands around his neck and took the initiative to send her fragrant lips.

   Zhang Xuan was blocked and struggled and said, "Don't...the door, the door is not..."

  Lilith stepped up her efforts, no matter what…

5 minutes later.

   Zhang Xuan shouted in a low voice: "You are crazy, you dare to do this when the door is not closed?"

  Lilith smiled and pressed her chest close to him, "They won't come."

   Zhang Xuan was really scared: "If you see it, it will have a bad impact."

  Lilith looked charming: "Is it exciting?"

   Zhang Xuan Muran, who felt guilty about Liao Yun, was really **** exciting, but he was really afraid of being seen.

   They are all people with heads and faces, and they all need face.

  Lilith grabbed his right hand, put it in her clothes, and said coquettishly, "I'm very happy now, I need you to comfort me."

   Zhang Xuan: "..."

  Lilith kissed him again, provoking him: "So afraid of things?"

   Zhang Xuan sighed: "Go and close the door."

   Lilith said defiantly: "No! It's not so fun to close the door."

   Zhang Xuan frowned, and said in a bad mood, "How about we go to the sofa?"

  Lilith twisted her enchanting figure, got up and closed the door.

  10 minutes later, Lilith's eyes were full of water, she bit his earlobe and muttered: "Hubby~, I'm budding~"

   Hearing this whistling call, the old man shuddered, "Your mother is outside, don't make trouble."

   "Husband~!"

   Zhang Xuan shivered for a while, and got up in a hurry, away from her origin.

  Lilith bit her lower lip tightly and looked at him resentfully.

   Zhang Xuan ignored the crazy woman and paced back and forth until the abnormality in his body subsided before he opened the door and walked out.

   Seeing him come out, Tao Ge looked at his watch meaningfully.

   Tao Ge asked him, "You know?"

  Zhang Xuan sat down next to Tao Ge, humming.

   Tao Ge asked again, "How do you feel?"

   Facing the three pairs of eyes, Zhang Xuan said calmly: "Fortunately, this result is somewhat unexpected, but it is only the first day.

   After all, Penguin Publishing has been promoting it for so long, and the outbreak on the first day is understandable.

  The real result depends on the continuation of the later. "

   After more than 20 minutes of happiness, Tao Ge is also in a sensible state at this moment: "Yes, it is really commendable that you can keep this calm.

   We also analyzed just now that the Clockwork Girl broke out on the first day, which can only prove that the propaganda is in place and that your identity has been recognized by the British, which is a very good momentum.

  The next step is to see if the story can be accepted by them, and to see the word of mouth, this is the fundamental.

  The results after three days, the results after one week, and the results after half a month are more valuable for reference. "

   Zhang Xuan has written three books and is no stranger to these.

   This evening, several people on the sofa deliberately emphasized calmness and calmness, but they were still happy.

   At Lilith's suggestion, Liao Yun and Xie Qi went to the kitchen to cook a few dishes and drink a little to celebrate.

   After three rounds of wine, Liao Yun raised her glass and said to Zhang Xuan, "It's good. Auntie witnessed a miracle tonight. I wish you a great new book."

   "Thank you, Auntie!" Zhang Xuan sincerely thanked him, touched a cup, and drank it in one gulp.

  Tao Ge raised his glass and said, "When you asked me to help you run "Clockwork Girl", I was reluctant and skeptical. I hope your results will get better and better in the future, and I will let my sister slap her face for a lifetime."

   Zhang Xuan hurriedly touched one: "It's serious, you must slap the face for a lifetime."

  Tao Ge lifted his eyelids, raised his head and sighed dryly.

  It's Xie Qi's turn.

  I saw her say: "I like this job very much, I like watching you conquer the British, it's fun, come on! Go over them!"

   Zhang Xuan was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Xie Qi, who usually pays attention to her words and deeds, still had such a side in her bones.

   Yes, very oriental! Yes, very Chinese!

  Lilith got up and finally respected him, "May you stand on top of the world!"

   Zhang Xuan got up and looked at each other for a few seconds before doing it together.

   This night, the old man who opened his heart to drink with Tao Ge, Lilith, and Xie Qi was a little drunk.

After   8 bottles of beer, he returned to the bedroom groggy.

  Tao Ge was drunk and was the first to get drunk.

   Xie Qi did not give up too much, and was also drunk.

   helped the two people who were slumped on the sofa back to the bedroom, Liao Yun said to Lilith, "Sleep with mom tonight."

  Lilith pouted: "Mom, he finally came here."

  Liao Yun ignored it, walked into the bedroom and said, "You all drank alcohol, it's easy to get into trouble."

  Although Lilith is usually daring, but when she heard her mother say this mercilessly, her face suddenly turned red and she couldn't hang herself, and hugged Liao Yun fiercely and hypocritically.

   Liao Yun was shaken to make her look crooked, she patted her daughter's forehead, and said angrily and funny:

   "Mom has raised you for more than 20 years, but this is the first time I see you being shy. I thought you really didn't know how high the sky is."

  Lilith flattered and said, "No way, I just have a good life, my parents love me."

   Liao Yun sat on the bed: "Sleep with mom tonight."

   Hearing this, Lilith released her immediately, threw herself on the bed, and muttered, "I'll be with you tonight, and I'll be with him tomorrow night."

   Liao Yun suddenly became angry.

   This night, Zhang Xuan slept soundly after drinking. Close your eyes, no matter what happens outside the window.

   Zhang Xuan slept comfortably, but he was crazy busy outside!

  Penguin Press.

  I saw the bald editor-in-chief suddenly ask Jack: "Jack, is there any news from Japan, how much is Japan?"

  Jack replied: "There is news, 15023 volumes."

   "How much is Korea?"

   "Volume 8811."

  The bald editor-in-chief scolded: "What? That's it? Isn't it called the Four Little Dragons of Asia? That's it? No wonder Korea is always inferior to Japan!"

"Singapore?"

   "Volume 6009."
