Reborn Almighty Scholar

Chapter 67 The Uninvited Guest

That night, Ma Xiaolong came to Jincheng overnight. Anyway, he has ten houses here, so he is not afraid that he will have no place to sleep.

As soon as he walked out of the station, he took out this year's new Motorola cover phone, reported to his family that he was safe, and then talked on the phone with Zhu Sha for a while.The cost of cross-regional mobile phone communication is extremely expensive, that is, he is not short of money, and ordinary people will feel distressed to death after chatting for 10 minutes.

After hanging up the phone, Ma Xiaolong contacted the editor-in-chief of the publishing house, saying that he would go to the publishing house early tomorrow morning and ask him to prepare the one thousand novels and comics to be signed.

When the editor-in-chief learned that Ma Xiaolong was coming, he insisted on inviting him to dinner, but he happened to be a little hungry, so he agreed.

I didn't go to any well-known restaurants, just an ordinary small restaurant.

Huaxia cuisine is basically hidden in the streets and alleys. It may not be very hygienic, but it is economical and affordable, and the taste is good.

"Mr. Xiaolong, I haven't seen you for a few months, and you're handsome again." The editor-in-chief at that time has been promoted to editor-in-chief, and the current editor-in-chief is a 26-year-old young man who just got promoted, but I have met many times in the past few years, and we are very familiar with each other. very familiar.

"It should be taller again!" Ma Xiaolong stroked his small crew cut: "I can't compare to how handsome I was before."

"Hahaha..." The editor-in-chief laughed: "Mr. Xiaolong is still so funny, I have to have a good meal with Mr. Xiaolong today, and I have to let you take care of me in the future!"

"Look at what you said, you're the editor-in-chief, and it's too late for me to flatter you!"

There is no need to eat more in the evening, I ordered four dishes casually, plus drinks.

Ma Xiaolong is only thirteen, and the editor-in-chief has to consider his age if he wants to drink, and drinks are the most suitable.

There is not much to talk about between the editor and the author. Apart from the works, there is basically nothing to talk about, and there is a bit of a generation gap between the editor-in-chief and Ma Xiaolong, who are more than ten years old!
Halfway through the meal, the editor-in-chief suddenly said something: "Mr. Xiaolong, your book "Sword Art Online" has been favored by a bookseller from RB. I want the exclusive Japanese copyright. What do you mean?"

"Oh?" Ma Xiaolong was a little surprised: "My book hasn't been published yet! How did he see it?"

"We have business dealings with that side." The editor-in-chief explained: "Although "Legend of Sword and Fairy" was not released there because of the subject matter, it still caused a great sensation in China and Southeast Asia. He just came here recently. Negotiating business in China, after reading Teacher Xiaolong’s new book, he expressed that he wants the Japanese copyright, do you want to meet him?”

"It's okay to meet, as long as the price is right, it's okay to give him the exclusive Japanese copyright." Ma Xiaolong said.

Whose money is not earned?Little RB's money is going to make a lot of money.

The editor-in-chief smiled and said, "Don't worry, we'll personally check it out for you. If he dares to give less, we'll be the first to say no."

Ma Xiaolong picked up Jianlibao: "Take one."

"..."

……

Early the next morning, Ma Xiaolong came to the publishing house, plunged into the pile of books, and wrote his specially practiced signature on the title page of the book.

A thousand names, three thousand characters, handwriting also takes a lot of work!

After working for two hours, I finally signed a thousand books.It's okay, with his 30 points of physical strength, there is no pressure.

"Mr. Xiaolong, you have worked hard." A young female employee handed over a glass of water, her eyes were a little shy, and her attitude was a little enthusiastic.

"..." Sister, I'm only thirteen, don't beat me up.

At the critical moment, the editor-in-chief came over: "Is Mr. Xiaolong finished with his work? Mr. Kojima is here."

Ichiro Kojima, RB's bookseller.

Ma Xiaolong nodded and got up to meet him.

Half an hour later, the conversation fell apart.

Kojima Ichiro used the reason that Ma Xiaolong was not well-known in RB, and desperately lowered the price. Ma Xiaolong definitely could not accept it, but considering what the other party said was not unreasonable, he proposed an agreement to share different proportions according to the sales volume. He thought Kojima Ichiro would definitely I agreed, but I didn't expect to be rejected.

There is no way to talk about this, Ma Xiaolong will not be used to RB, turned to the editor-in-chief and said: "I don't want to see this person in the future, and I will not sell the copyright of any work to him."

After speaking, he shook his hands and left the meeting room.

It doesn’t matter if the talk breaks down, anyway, he has the basic disk in China and Southeast Asia, and the international popularity of “Sword Art Online” in the previous life will enter the European and American markets sooner or later. By then, it will bring the general trend, and see if the little RB will not kneel and beg him to buy the copyright !
The editor-in-chief didn't expect Ichiro Kojima to be so disgusting. If he didn't have enough power, he would have thrown this little RB out.

Kojima Ichiro was very calm. He thought it was just Ma Xiaolong's negotiating method. He has been in the mall for so many years. What kind of method has he not seen?Throw the table and leave?It's too immature.

However, this "SAO" is an unbelievable masterpiece. The imagination is too rich, and the characters are also very brilliant. It is very suitable for the reading taste of RB young people. I believe that after obtaining the exclusive Japanese copyright, it will definitely bring me great wealth. .

Ichiro Kojima was having a sweet dream and thought he could continue talking the next day, but the editor-in-chief informed him: "Mr. Xiaolong has gone home and said that he doesn't want to see Mr. Kojima again. There is nothing we can do. Please forgive Mr. Kojima." .”

Ga! ?

Kojima Ichiro was dumbfounded.

He seemed to see a golden mountain disappearing into the sea, so that he could never touch it again.

A few days later, "Sword Art Online" was released simultaneously in China and Southeast Asia, triggering sales that were even hotter than "Legend of Sword and Fairy".

Before "Sword of the Immortal Sword", there had already been works of celestial beings such as "Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan", so although the sales of "Sword of the Immortal Sword" were booming, there was not much groundbreaking.

However, "Sword Art Online" is completely different. In this era when computers were just emerging and dial-up Internet access was just emerging, the virtual online game worldview built by "Sword Art Online" is simply a groundbreaking work, and the settings that cannot be exited are increasing. In addition, this era is making great strides towards the world of Internet technology, and everyone is full of yearning for the Internet, so the "Sword Art Online" that came into being instantly detonated the entire Asia, and even began to move towards Europe and the United States. spread.

In the past year, "Sword Art Online" landed in the European and American markets, and within a very short period of time seized the number one position in the sales list, causing a huge sensation and the attention of the world's media.

At the same time, the author of "Xiaolong" has also become the focus of the world's media, but Mr. Xiaolong has always refused to go out, making these foreign reporters very helpless.

In this era when the Harry boy flying on a broomstick had not yet appeared, "Sword Art Online" created a world-record-like sales volume in just one year, and Ma Xiaolong's hand counting money was about to cramp.

At this time, Kojima Ichiro regretted that he couldn't sleep the whole night, because "Sword Art Online" really entered RB with a big trend, and was robbed of the exclusive Japanese copyright by other libraries, and then instantly detonated the RB sales list, and triggered The huge frenzy of "Sword Art Online" has earned a lot of money from the library of Japanese copyrights, and the president is happy from ear to ear all day long.

Thinking that all these benefits should be his own, but others snatched them all, Kojima Ichiro regretted that he couldn't afford it, and he retired from the position of president not long after, and returned to the countryside to retire.

This is a later story, so I won't show it for the time being.

Let’s say that after Ma Xiaolong threw the table and left, he immediately went to the station to buy a ticket, and took the earliest train home.

Because Jincheng is not the starting station, all you can buy is standing tickets, and there are more and more people coming up at the next stations, and there are also laborers carrying heavy burdens getting on the bus. The crowd is crowded, not to mention how uncomfortable it is.

Ma Xiaolong thinks it is time to buy a car. He can't drive it now, so he can let his father drive it.

Dad took the driver's license test two years ago, but he never bought a car. He used to think it was unnecessary, but now he is squeezed into a small corner by a bunch of people. He thinks it is very necessary, very necessary.

When I got home in the afternoon, I went to take a shower first, and browsed through today's various documents in the study.

It's okay, generally stable, but there is one thing that aroused his interest. Someone from Microsoft came to buy his company.

　Ask for a recommendation ticket.
