Chapter 343
A small editor in the traditional literature department heard the movement outside and came out and took a look.

But he was seeing Bai Yue roaring in the sky.

He asked in surprise: "Editor-in-chief Bai? Are you..."

The anger on Bai Yue's face did not disappear, and he threw the book in his hand into the arms of the editor: "Look at what you have done!"

The editor quickly caught it, took a look at it, and asked nervously, "Is there a problem with the printing quality of "The Legend of Condor Heroes"?"

"Print quality? Is this a print quality issue?"

Bai Yue's whole body trembled with anger. He pointed at the innocent editor and exclaimed: "The book of Meow Stars is very controversial. Don't you editors know about it?"

The editor said helplessly: "Chief editor Bai, we really don't know!"

Bai Yue didn't wrinkle when he heard the words: "I don't know?"

"Editor Hao said that in order to ensure that the important plot of the new book is not leaked in advance, he has never let us check the original manuscript."

The editor explained the whole story, and finally added: "The proofreading work was done by Editor-in-Chief Hao and Deputy Editor-in-Chief Liu himself."

Bai Yue Hou's molars creaked.

This old Hao!
Why didn't I realize how powerful he was before?
To actually cook mature rice for the sake of raw rice, forcibly concealed from everyone.

Bai Yue said angrily: "This old boy really didn't let you see the original manuscript? Then show me now! If you don't have the electronic manuscript, go to the warehouse to get the book for me!"

When he was about to leave, Bai Yue suddenly turned around and asked the editor who was angry, "Where's your Deputy Editor-in-Chief Liu? Ask him to come to my office."

……

Bai Yue waited in the office for a few minutes, the more he thought about it, the more angry he felt, only to feel that his heart was bleeding!

Suddenly, someone knocked on his office door.

"Come in!"

Bai Yue shouted sternly.

I saw that the person who came in was Xiao Liu, the deputy editor-in-chief of the Traditional Literature Department.

Xiao Liu looked calmer, and politely said to Bai Yue, "Chief Editor Bai, are you looking for me?"

Bai Yue's impression of Xiao Liu is still very good.

But this time, he was also an accomplice with Lao Hao, so he can't be forgiven lightly!
Bai Yue took a deep breath and calmed down before asking, "Did you and Lao Hao proofread the original draft of "The Return of the Condor Heroes"?"

Xiao Liu said modestly: "It's mainly Director Hao's credit."

Bai Yue was almost enraged when he heard this.

He slammed the table and stood up: "Why am I complimenting you? Are you still humble?"

Xiao Liu was jumped by the sudden violent Bai Yue, and asked in surprise: "Uh...Isn't it?"

"It's a fart!"

Bai Yue angrily tapped the tabletop with his knuckles, "Let me ask you, what happened to Zhen Zhibing?"

Xiao Liu suddenly said: "You mean the plot of 'Dragon Knight'?"

"'Dragon Rider'? How am I riding your face! Are the proper nouns sorted out?"

Bai Yue got even more angry!
Dragon knight?
Are you so good at spelling words?

Is it summed up like this?
Did you know that this word literally stabs loyal martial arts readers in the chest?

Bai Yue covered his chest, only to feel that his whole body was not well.

After this incident is resolved, I don't know if I will have the opportunity to see the cardiovascular medicine department...

"Old Hao is in a hurry for quick success. After all, after so many years in the traditional literature department, it is understandable that he finally caught an opportunity to rise."

Bai Yue tried his best to control his emotions, pointed at Xiao Liu and said, "How can you, Xiao Liu, be so smart and not understand the problem?"

"..."

Xiao Liu was silent and didn't know how to explain it.

He knew everything, and what he said at the moment was wrong.

Xiao Liu didn't say a word, in Bai Yue's eyes, it was a naked silent confrontation!

Bai Yue's anger, which had been suppressed a little bit just now, rose again in an instant: "This 'Dragon Knight'... bah... How did you make readers accept this kind of plot? We have a full 400 million copies in stock now! If readers are attracted The riot completely ruined the word-of-mouth of this book, can you bear this responsibility? Huh?"

Seeing that Bai was getting more and more excited, Xiao Liu hurriedly interjected and explained, "I already contacted Meow Stars when I got the original version."

Bai Yue asked almost word by word, "Then why don't you change it?!"

Xiao Liu hesitated for two seconds, then simply offered the original words: "Meow Xingren said...he won't change a word!"

Bai Yue's fingers hung in the air for a long time, and finally he said a half sentence from his mouth: "This is so special..."

The author has full ownership of the work.

Including the integrity of text and punctuation!
If the author does not agree to the revision, the publisher cannot change a word of it.

You can not publish, but you have no right to modify my work!

This is also the guaranteed support given to writers by the writers' union.

If the publisher modifies the content of the work without permission, the writers' union will take action and make extremely severe penalties.

Therefore, in the face of such an arrogant author, the publishing house is also full of helplessness.

Xiao Liu carefully put a brand new first volume on the desk and said, "Actually, editor-in-chief, if you look back, it's not that bad."

Bai Yue, who hung his fingers for a long time, finally shed the last bit of persistence in his heart.

He felt like he was ten years older for a moment.

Slowly sat down at the position of the editor-in-chief, and after a long silence, he said helplessly: "Hey...it's already come to this point, all 400 million copies have been printed, and our publishing house can't afford this kind of news without publishing it." loss……"

He raised his eyes to look at Xiao Liu one last time, and said, "Go to Lao Hao's house to find him, make all the preparations, and notify the people in the security room that the security guards will be on duty 24 hours a day for the next few days."

Xiao Liu nodded and agreed: "Okay, then Editor-in-Chief Bai, I'll go to Director Hao to discuss countermeasures first."

Bai Yue waved at Xiao Liu impatiently, and said weakly, "Get out, get out!"

After Xiao Liu left, Bai Yue couldn't help but turn his attention to the brand new first volume.

To see or not to see?
this is a problem……

……

When Xiao Liu passed by the Traditional Literature Department, he stretched his head and glanced at the situation inside.

I saw that the other editors all had complex expressions on their faces.

And they are holding one or two copies of "The Condor Heroes" in their hands, and they are quickly flipping through them, and the more they flip through, the more anxious they look.

Xiao Liu quickly retracted his head and walked out of the bookstore with the same brisk pace as Hao Jiansheng.

Just a few minutes after he left, an editor couldn't help but covered his forehead and said with a broken face: "My perfect fairy goddess Rong'er has actually become a scheming middle-aged woman, I can't accept this. Collapsing characters!!!"

Someone next to him immediately answered, "It's okay to say this, but it's not a degenerate setting. The two books have different stances. From the standpoint of Guo Jing and Huang Rong, Rong'er is naturally a elf-like character, but you stand From Yang Guo's point of view, if you don't write it like this, it's really breaking the character."

The editor who spoke first shook his head and said, "I'd rather say it, but the readers may not understand."

At this time, a pained editor couldn't help but interject: "The readers' incomprehension of Rong'er is only temporary. After they accept this setting, they can still understand. It's the part of the little dragon girl."

Just as he finished speaking, an editor next to him suddenly let out a mournful howl!

"Ah!!! How dare! How dare meow stars write like this!"

I saw that the editor was like a madman, jumping and jumping in the aisle with the book in his hand.

That kind of distressed appearance is simply sad to see, and tears to hear...

He finally raised his head in disbelief, looked around the other people in shock, and asked in a trembling voice, "My little dragon girl, who is as pure and flawless as the white moonlight in my heart, was actually sullied by a stinky Taoist priest?!"

"Another runaway..."

The editor who was beaten by Bai Yue in vain shook his head and sighed, "Just now, Mr. Bai probably got beaten like this."

The editor who was quick to read couldn't help frowning and said, "No wonder Mr. Bai wants us to look at it. This... We editors can't bear to read this book. How can readers accept it? What if..."

After flipping through the editors of the next few volumes in advance, he said contemptuously, "This is unbearable? There are still ruthless ones behind!"

"and also?"

This exclamation came out from the mouths of three or four editors at the same time.

They couldn't believe that the author handed a blade to the reader, and he didn't stab to death once, and it even came with a knife? ! !
The editor explained: "I read the last content ahead of time. The protagonist Yang Guo had one arm chopped off and became a one-armed hero..."

"A hand was... chopped off? Yang Guo?!"

The editor who was on the verge of collapsing after seeing Xiao Longnu was insulted couldn't believe his ears: "Damn it! Meow stars are nothing but meows, aren't they?"

Someone next to him thought about it and said in surprise: "First, it subverted Huang Rong's image, then Xiao Longnv lost her virginity, and finally Yang Guo's hand was chopped off. Is Meow Star going crazy? Even if he doesn't care about the sales of his works , does he not consider the reader's feelings at all?"

An old editor said: "If he cared about this, he wouldn't write like this! Anyway, the cat is very mysterious, and no one knows who he is. If this kind of thing is done, it will be done, and no one can do anything about him. But……"

Someone next to him saw that he had lost half of his words, and asked, "But what?"

The old editor slowly said with a strange expression: "But readers can find our bookstore if they can't find meow stars!"

"Fuck! In the end, we actually fought against everything?"

The editors are completely panicked!
The old editor was still relatively calm at the critical moment: "Don't panic, don't you still have editor-in-chief Hao and editor-in-chief Liu on top? Now editor-in-chief Bai also knows this situation, and there is still more time before the publication of the book. In a few days, I can always have a comprehensive plan. But... our bookstore is afraid to hire a professional crisis public relations company to deal with it!"

The editors were dumbfounded.

Do you want to be so close to the enemy?
Would you like a professional crisis public relations firm?

This is a method that will only be used at the time of life and death!

Although there are some doubts about the old editor's statement.

But for the prospect of "The Legend of Condor Heroes", almost everyone has a consensus in their hearts!
I am afraid that in the first few days of publishing the book, they will face the dilemma of plummeting sales...

The traditional literature department's dream of turning over is afraid that it will become a dream bubble!

And now "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is the time of the fire.

The first sale of "God Sculpture" is bound to be hot.

The more popular the first sale, the larger the audience of readers affected, and the stronger the subsequent backlash!

With such a chain reaction, no one could have imagined how crazy it would end up being.

"It's not as bad as you think."

At this time, the editor who had read the following text in advance said: "I roughly scanned the whole book. Although I didn't study every paragraph carefully, I still understand the general situation. In the end, it's generally... acceptable!"

Immediately after the remarks, the editor said speechlessly: "You can still accept this, your heart is really big!"

The editor thought about it for a while and then said with a weird expression: "There are indeed a few very sadistic scenes in the book, which may be more heart-wrenching at first, but at the end you will find that these are not deliberately disgusting by cats. The reader's plot."

"It's not deliberate enough? Why can't you write, you have to make people so bad?"

Seeing the expressions of disbelief in everyone else, the editor didn't know how to describe his feelings for a while.

Although he jumped to watch it, he basically browsed the big plot.

When he saw Yang Guo and Xiao Longnv reunited, he still felt pain in his heart, but he was also a little happy and relieved.

When he saw that Xiao Longnv was about to get married, he would still get angry for Yang Guo.

Of course, seeing that Yang Guo was poisoned by the love flower, Xiaolongnv made a 16-year agreement to keep him alive.

At that moment, my heart was full of nostalgia and touch.

The reason why he has been able to tell other people's spoilers calmly is because he doesn't know when, the resentment in his heart for the black hand of the cat has drifted away with the wind.

In the end, what lingered in my heart was a sense of happiness after the shock.

Perhaps there are not so many unforgettable twists and turns before, nor will there be such a joy that touches the soul at the end.

He picked up the four books on the desk and said to the people who were still angry: "Trust me, after reading it, you will feel completely different."

After he finished speaking, he left the office gracefully.

He wanted to find a quiet place to read the entire book carefully.

Only some shocked people were left in the office.

Suddenly, I don't know whose hand, slowly stretched out to the "incomparably poisonous" book...

……

On the first day of December, long-awaited readers lined up in front of the bookstore early.

The huge banner hanging over the door explains their purpose!

The sequel to "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Condor Heroes" officially came out.

"coming!"

The eager readers in the front row saw the figure of the staff walking towards this side through the crack of the rolling shutter door.

"Brush!"

As the rolling shutter door opened, the staff who opened the door inside and the four security guards standing on both sides were revealed.

"Don't crowd! Please come in in an orderly manner!"

In the face of the readers eager to rush into the bookstore, they all look like they are facing a formidable enemy! ! !

Equally trembling, there are also a group of editors quietly waiting in the editorial department.

Silence is the only theme in the traditional literature department of Jincheng Book Company at this moment.

As if it was a sin for anyone to pant loudly!
