howling breath

"B&B customers thought it was a marketing campaign that we would spend money on interacting with - now Lin Lang's Weibo has almost 3000 fans, and the latest post about "Chunsheng Inn" has more than [-] comments. The number of readings on the account is [-] plus - in fact, our promotional rhythm has just started! I didn't see you two giving out dog food before, but now I see that you two have really saved us a lot of cost - even if it is Spending money to copy event marketing may not be able to achieve this effect!"

"The thirty-eight thousand that was thrown in isn't considered money?"

"That's different, that's heating. The seeds must first germinate, and then fertilization makes sense."

"This metaphor is quite vivid—what about the readers? How about the feedback?" Lin Lang was concerned about this.

"Of course it has rave reviews!" Chen Ni flicked his phone to find a screenshot of the comment for Lin Lang.

"It's okay, I'll look for it myself." Lin Lang said, "I'll transfer the money to your public account—give me the account number."

Chen Ni sent the official account number to Lin Lang with his mobile phone: "Although my brother will settle the accounts clearly, we will charge you 3000 for just one click!"

Lin Lang looked at Chen Ni.

But Lin Lang looked at it for a second, and Chen Ni repeatedly argued: "It's not that I don't want to take advantage of you! The main reason is that the client has added an additional 3000 budget to warm up the 'Chunxi Road Love', we will order it." The media has already made a profit! The [-] you received is the result of us pointing the media to make you a free writer, Lin! Besides, you are not the only one who is popular, but a couple who are popular, and we point to Mr. Tang, the major shareholder of the media. What about the share—although I don’t know what he can do if he becomes popular! Besides, if you have any extra advantage, leave it to Tang Yushu to take advantage of it at night!”

Chen Ni said that the whole office burst into laughter.

Lin Lang was angry and funny, and took Tang Yushu to "beat up" Chen Ni.

The "well-known writer" here and the two "company executives" frolicked together like kindergarten children, and a colleague on the other end suddenly exclaimed: "Brother Lin Lang, do you know Zhao Yanyan? ——Wen Wenxue The beautiful writer whom I highly praised."

"I don't know!" Tang Yushu answered for Lin Lang, because he remembered hearing Lin Lang say: Zhao Yanyan used Lin Lang as a gunman.

Lin Lang looked at Tang Yushu, who had a clear love and hatred, and smiled, and asked the colleague: "Well, I know each other, what's the matter?"

"She also reposted 'Chunxi Road Unrequited Love', but we didn't look for her when we added resources—she's almost at the star level now, how can we afford this money!"

Lin Lang was stunned: "What did she say?"

"She said that you look much better in person than the photos - I agree with this! In addition, she sighed with emotion, 'Lin Lang has finally made it through!', and called on her fans to pay attention to you - she said that you wrote Things look great!"

This sudden situation made Lin Lang feel distressed for a moment.

Although she was used as a gunman, but...Lin Lang admitted that it was "a last resort" when he was "willing to fight and willing to suffer" when he was in distress.As for her also moved the mind of "Fengyue Inn" - usually it is nothing more than Lin Lang agreeing if he is willing or not - but this time, in order to bring down "Wen Wen" and "[Huarongyuexia]", I have already made Zhao Yanyan into the game as an important pawn.

But at this juncture, Zhao Yanyan stood up to help her... This made Lin Lang suddenly at a loss.

Chen Ni and the others didn't know about Lin Lang's "game"—this matter was somewhat dangerous, and Lin Lang didn't want anyone to be involved.But Chen Ni knew that "Zhao Yanyan used Lin Lang as a gunman".He understood that Lin Lang was distressed, and as a person outside the incident, he tried to analyze Zhao Yanyan's motives: "One possibility is that she has no heart and a generous nature; the other possibility is that she has a very deep city. , I want to use this trick to win over you at this time, so that you can be pulled to her side, so that nothing will be revealed one day. Specifically, you have been in contact with her, you can judge for yourself. "

The colleague was at a loss: "What did Zhao Yanyan do? What happened?"

Lin Lang didn't answer, but just thought for a long time, but it was still like being knocked out of a well-planned situation by mistake, and he couldn't think of a solution—continue to follow the original pace, and treat Zhao Yanyan as Wen Wen's target together. Kill?Or let her go?

Lin Lang once met Zhao Yanyan once - she is also a girl who is more beautiful than in the photo.

Lin Lang remembered that she was not the same as the "quiet and gentle" image in the photo at that time. She sucked on the cigarette holder and smiled at Lin Lang with a big grin. The factory girl supports the family. Who knew it would become popular so suddenly? Now the brokerage company wants to publish a book for me, and I have to ask you to write it—I also think it’s unfair to you. But don’t blame me—the money I gave you Whatever it is, I am thinking about how much I can earn. Anyway, I don’t want to go back to the factory to work in this life—you know? There is a crack in the door of the women’s bathhouse in our factory, and it’s the factory director It was dug out—you said, is it disgusting?”

"Yes. Don't go back." Lin Lang avoided the smell of cigarettes in her mouth.

In order to bring down "Wen Wen" and "[Huarongyuexia]", by the way, Zhao Yanyan, who was "not worthy of the name", was dragged from the altar-it was not wronged her, but Lin Lang remembered that "the girl on the door of the women's bathhouse the seam", Lin Lang really couldn't do it.

Lin Lang didn't like Zhao Yanyan, but he couldn't hate her either.

After transferring 3000 to Dianjiang for interaction, Lin Lang decided to go downstairs to buy milk tea for all the staff in Dianjiang's office.

When he walked into the elevator, [Huarong Yuexia], who hadn't received a reply from Lin Lang all afternoon, called Lin Lang.

Lin Lang looked at the name of the note, and didn't dare to answer it for a moment——[Huarong Yuexia] must have read his latest Weibo post.There are two messages in that Weibo, both of which may make [Huarong Yuexia] aware of something: one is "something happened that day and I was scared" - pointing out that I still have hatred for him; It is ""Spring Inn".

I dare not answer because I am afraid that [Hua Rong Yue Xia] will have a showdown with me first.

Sulfur, toner, and fire nitrate have all been loaded, but the fuse... Lin Lang still wants to wait for the most suitable time to re-ignite.

After thinking for so long, the call has been disconnected.

Lin Lang thought for a while, but he still had the courage to call back: "The phone was placed elsewhere just now."

"Oh! My Lin Meinan!"—he opened his head in a cheerful tone, which made Lin Lang breathe a sigh of relief—"I was so anxious that you didn't answer my phone! Do you have enuresis? Did I scare you that day? it's your turn?"

"Yes." Lin Lang tried to put on a smile, but even though he thought he was a highly skilled "acting school", he couldn't mobilize his emotions at this moment because of the memory of his own pain, and finally he only replied lightly: "Yes. scared."

"You kid—I'll just say you're still young! Hey, I'm just a little familiar, so don't worry about it!"

"Don't worry about it. Don't worry about it, I won't take the initiative to ask you to cooperate." If you can't keep up with your emotions, then use words to make up.

Hearing what Lin Lang said, [Hua Rong Yue Xia] also breathed a sigh of relief: "That's fine! I thought you were angry for not answering my phone call!"

"Where can it be?"

"Hey! I said you are the Duoai Inn - do you plan to open an inn in the future? I see that you have collaborated with a hotel brand on another "Chunsheng Inn"? What are you writing? Wen Wenlai will publish it for you, think about it?"

Lin Lang's half-suspended heart fell to the ground - obviously this opportunist only knew that the author of "Chunsheng Inn" also had "traffic" now, but he didn't actually read this novel.However, Lin Lang is considerate: Even if [Huarong Yuexia] briefly read the first few chapters of "Chunsheng Inn", he still cannot recognize that this is "Fengyue Inn" - because the narrative line was urgently revised by Lin Lang, and The protagonist's name has also been changed.

"sure."

"Well, let's talk about this in detail later!"

After confirming that Lin Lang had a "good relationship" with him, he hung up.

Chen Ni has always been meticulous and thoughtful in his work - the reason why the three publishing companies who came to inquire and have not responded is because they plan to wait for the client's promotional rhythm to finish.

Sure enough, the brand has been promoting the novel with their pockets, and "Chunsheng Inn" has been released for a long time, and has accumulated a good reputation; these companies secretly observing "Chunsheng Inn" are all Come up with a royalty offer.The highest one set out such a condition - "3 copies of the first printing, 10 points of royalties."

The author's remuneration for book publishing is calculated as follows: Assuming that a book is priced at 30 yuan, "10 points of royalties" means that the author of each book can earn 3 yuan, and "3 prints" means that the total can be 9 yuan. Get 7 yuan, deduct personal income tax, and get about [-] yuan in the hands of the author with a fraction.

This condition is almost the treatment that can only be enjoyed by "A+ level" writers in the market at present - Tang Yushu couldn't help giving a thumbs up to his good brother after hearing this, but Lin Lang didn't think so much about Chen Ni's "thoughtfulness" care.

He went through the details of the three publishing companies, and found that two of them belonged directly or indirectly to the Wen Wen Department—this monopoly was so big that it didn't even realize that "The Lakeside" was signed by its own label. "Fenghua Xueyue" and "Spring Inn" are basically the same book.

Excluding the two Wenwen companies, the remaining one had the lowest price increase, but Lin Lang asked Chen Ni for the contact information of this company.

Lin Lang responded to Chen Ni's confusion in this way: "The popularity of 'Chunxi Road Unrequited Love' will pass within three months, but publishing is my lifelong career. I am more concerned about whether there is a "next time", so the first printing volume does not have to be so high. Anyway, if it is really easy to sell, don't put more pressure on the publishing company. Become a 'slow-selling author'." - Lin Lang didn't say a word about "I want to use Wenwen".

After hearing this, Chen Ni couldn't help giving his good brother a thumbs up.

Tang Yushu was puzzled: "If you want to praise you, praise Lin Lang!"

Chen Ni explained: "I want to praise you! I admire you! My silly brother, what kind of superb tricks did you hide to catch him?"

Lin Lang smiled to see the two of them fight together.

After the editor of this publishing company got Lin Lang's contact information, he said straight to the point that he was short-sighted: "Our company really can't compete with the big companies in terms of remuneration. It is also because I like "Chunsheng Inn" very much because of my own selfishness, so I worked very hard. Fight for this novel. I also have a lot of ideas in the production of the book!"

She talks a lot about book decorating.Some Lin Lang agreed and some disagreed, but at least she could hear her enthusiasm for this novel.

In the end, Lin Lang said straightforwardly: "I won't raise the royalties with you, but I need to add my studio's LOGO to the producer."

The editor who won the contract was extremely happy: "No problem!"

So "Xinmeng Culture" has its first "book case" of its own company.

The second "book case" of "New Dream Culture" is a comic book by the "once well-known" cartoonist Lu Li.

The first Lin Lang chooses to issue it jointly with a company with professional qualifications.

However, Lin Lang chose to release the second book with "New Dream Culture" with Film University Publishing House.After an internal discussion in the editorial department, I got Shen Ye's guarantee that "the ISBN will be available in early December", taking into account the delivery cycle of the printing factory, as well as the distribution of goods through the offline channels of the Film University Publishing House and the old professor's " There are all kinds of treasures and everything." Sun Tzu's online channel distribution cycle, so Lin Lang decided to set a date for the Spring Festival listing.

Today is the Anniversary of the Film and Television University, and the campus is full of people, many alumni who now have qualifications in the industry come back to play.The West District of the school even set up a "Creative Bazaar" to provide students with design class assignments, paintings, scripts, etc. - an event that has been held frequently by the Film and Television University for many years.

It was very interesting, but Lin Lang stopped his heart and stayed in the editorial department of "New Movie" to work with Qin Qing and Shen Ye.

When it was close to noon, Shen Ye suddenly exclaimed: "Lin Lang, didn't you say you got Lu Li's copyright authorization?"

"Yes." Someone spoke up, so Lin Lang stopped clumsily manipulating the fingers of PS.

"But... I just received a private message from the backstage, claiming to be Lu Li's manager. He said he would send a lawyer's letter to "New Movie" and asked me to provide my email address."

Qin Qing was also stunned: "Ah? I'm about to finish the cover of his booklet..."

Shen Ye added: "The manuscript and the application for the book number have already been handed over to the Film University Publishing House..."

"Give him the email—mine." Lin Lang smiled nonchalantly.

Shen Ye couldn't understand Lin Lang's motives, so he only put a embarrassed look on his face, trying to wait for Lin Lang to explain more.

But Lin Lang didn't explain anything, just said: "The lawyer's letter from their company will soon be invalid."

Then the boy buried himself in his work again.

Self-studying PS is really difficult, but I don't know when it started, Lin Lang is very willing to challenge all the difficult things.

After finishing the last picture, Lin Lang saved it in the desktop folder.

There are 3 folders on the desktop——[Screenshot of the discussion post about Gu Meishang’s plagiarism], [About the comparison chart of "The Wind, Flowers, Snow and Moon by the Lake" plagiarizing "Spring Inn"], [Xinmeng Culture Official Account, Weibo Visual Design] .

Lin Lang sent the first two packages to his mobile phone for backup via QQ, then uploaded them to his mailbox and sent them to Chen Ni.

Then I clicked on the chat history between myself and [Huarong Yuexia], and reconfirmed the content of every conversation I had with him - leaving no trace.

So he turned off the computer, bid farewell to Shen Ye and Qin Qing, and Lin Lang left the editorial office.

When getting off the elevator, Lin Lang called Tang Yushu.

"where are you?"

"I'm in the dormitory building. Have you finished your work? Do you want to eat? Hey...it's only 3 pm, it's too early to eat. Then I'll take you to the south gate? Or do you I plan to go back to the dormitory to rest—anyway, I can make any arrangements."

"I think……"

Can't think of any arrangement.

It's just that I want to see you and be next to you before taking the lead...

Because Tang Yushu, you are my light.
