I really don't want to be a novelist

Chapter 127 You know how to start reading novels, right?

"Editor-in-Chief Qian of Huating Publishing: Mr. Bugong, Shiyue Novels intends to put an electronic version of your work "Bird in a Cage" on the shelves. I want to sign a contract with you to obtain the authorization of the electronic version."

Ji Zhuo has been traveling for a few days, and now he is on the high-speed rail, on his way back to his residence in Shanghai.

The high-speed rail is not very quiet. From time to time, there are people chatting with children and babbling.
Ji Zhuo was in a good mood at first, but when he saw the news from Editor-in-Chief Qian, he fell silent.

Then there are question marks.

No,

My book is published directly, right?
I need a new vest, right?

Why did it have anything to do with Shiyue.com?
Ji Zhuo couldn't figure it out, his face was distorted with a mask of pain...

You, Huating Publishing House, still have contact with Shiyue.com, and do you still have cooperation?
I didn't see it before, could it be that the editors of Shiyue.com are in the vast sea of ​​books,

I fell in love with this book at a glance, so you want to put it on Shiyue.com?
Ji Zhuo couldn't figure it out, couldn't figure it out.

On the other side, Editor-in-Chief Qian seemed to be watching Ji Zhuo for a long time without replying.

He started to explain to Ji Zhuo again.

"Editor Qian: Mr. Bugong, Shiyue Novels.com is a website that serializes online novels. It is the largest website in the field of online novels, but they also include electronic versions of some excellent published works."

As if he was afraid that Ji Zhuo would not know how to start reading novels, Editor-in-Chief Qian said seriously.

"Editor Qian: They just want the electronic authorization of this novel, and put it on their website for readers of their website to watch...they also have paying readers on their website, so they will..."

"Big coincidence: Editor Qian...I went online..."

Seeing Editor-in-Chief Qian's words getting more and more outrageous, Ji Zhuo resisted the entanglement and replied this message first.

"Editor-in-Chief Qian: Oh...then Mr. Bugong, you should also know about Shiyue Internet Cafe.

It's a coincidence: Well... I know.

Editor-in-chief Qian: They have opened a new channel called 'Theatrical Channel'. The price of novels on this channel is higher than other online novels. They want Mr. Gong to authorize you to put the electronic version on their channel.

Editor-in-Chief Qian: They offered two types of contracts. One is to buy out the exclusive electronic copyright, allowing only one of their websites to put up the electronic version of "The Bird in the Cage." Selling the electronic version, according to Mr. Ji, [-]% for you, and [-]% for them...

It's a coincidence: Editor-in-Chief Qian...I also read novels online. "

I always feel that in the eyes of the editor-in-chief Qian, he seems to be an author who doesn't care about world affairs and concentrates on writing novels... But isn't there an ID number on the contract I signed?

I'm only in my twenties, so it makes me look like I'm in my [-]s and [-]s.

"Editor Qian: Oh, sorry, sorry..."

Editor-in-Chief Qian suddenly remembered Ji Zhuo's age, and felt a little embarrassed.

How can a man in his 40s explain online novel websites to a man in his 20s?

However, Ji Zhuo's mature writing style and genre of novels make it easy for people to overlook his age.

"Editor Qian: Then Mr. Bugong, do you think you want to authorize the serial copyright of the electronic version of Shiyue's novels?"

Looking at this message,

Ji Zhuo remained silent again.

Going to sign a contract with Shiyue.com, wouldn't it just 'get to the bottom' and 'tell the truth to the world'.

My vest just fell off, and I was directly exposed to everyone?

"Big coincidence: how about... let's take it easy.

Editor-in-chief Qian: Actually, I also agree with this opinion. Although authorizing the electronic version of Shiyue.com can increase the income of a channel, it will greatly affect the sales of physical books, especially when new books are still in the release stage. "

"Big coincidence:..."

How about I still agree?
"Editor Qian: Then I told Shiyue.com that we will talk about it after the new book sale period has passed?

It's a coincidence: um...

It’s a coincidence: Editor-in-Chief Qian, I would like to ask, why did Shiyue contact the publisher to authorize the electronic version of this book?Now the book sales are only a few hundred copies, right? "

This is what Ji Zhuo is most concerned about.

I have already started a small account, and I found a publishing house that is about to close down. How could I still collide with Shiyue.com?
Shi Yue and I have sins in our lives?
It can't be because Huating Publishing House is also in Shanghai, right?
"Editor-in-Chief Qian: It's because the publisher's situation has not been very good in the past two years, and some channels have not been opened up. In order not to delay your book, Mr. Bugong, I found some contacts and asked someone to find some promotional resources for this book. book promotion.

What a coincidence: ?
Editor-in-Chief Qian: Mr. Bugong of Magic City Publishing House, you know, they have a lot of cooperation with Shiyue. I am an old friend with the editor-in-chief of their publishing house. I entrust him to help Mr. Bugong. Your book is on their website. Recommended locations for publicity.

Editor-in-Chief Qian: Maybe their editors saw your work at this time, Mr. Bugong. Because your work is of high quality, they want to authorize the electronic version to be placed on their website. "

And blame me for writing too well, right?
Looking at these familiar names, Ji Zhuo felt a little numb.

You have such a powerful relationship, why didn't you use it before, it made the publishing house almost go bankrupt.

I don't want to, I don't want to know about Modu Publishing House.

Ji Zhuo was in a complicated mood.

I didn't expose it this time.

But why is it like this?
I can't avoid these website publishers, right?
Hey……

"Big coincidence: OK.

Editor-in-chief Qian: You don’t have to be polite, Mr. Bugong, it’s what our publishing house should do. "

"Big coincidence: Well, thank you."

I ended my communication with Editor-in-Chief Qian,

Ji Zhuo quickly switched his phone to the Shiyue Novel APP,
Then I saw the recommendation in the prominent position on the APP homepage.

"...Hey, young man, you also read novels."

The uncle next to Ji Zhuo wore glasses, glanced at Ji Zhuo's phone, and spoke with some interest.

"...I have also used this novel software."

Ji Zhuo looked at the phone, turned his head silently, and looked at the old man. Looking at the old man with great interest, he couldn't help asking,
"Grandpa, don't you also read the novels of 'Epoch Coincidence'?"

"Who is that? The author, I usually look for published novels on this website, and those online novels don't suit my taste."

Oh, that's fine.

Hearing the old man's words, Ji Zhuo heaved a sigh of relief.

But then, the uncle seemed to be interested, he adjusted his glasses,
Asked aloud again,

"But what kind of books did you say that author has written? Tell me, and I'll read it some other day."

Hearing this, Ji Zhu fell into silence.

After a long time, I said in the expectant eyes of the uncle,

"Those who write online novels are the ones who write very cool online novels, the ones that destroy the world at every turn. They are not suitable for you to read..."

After speaking, Ji Zhuo leaned back in the seat, facing forward, his eyes straightened.

……

"Zeng Canghai: Is there anyone else? Is there any news about the new book by the dog author?

Takeoff Wuhu: None, next.

Zeng Canghai: Hey..."

Among the readers, it has been almost a month, and Ji Zhuo's new book has not been published yet.

Naturally, the readership is quite deserted, only some loyal readers still mention the author's new book from time to time,

As for the rest...is the reader group used to discuss author books?

"Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea: Friends, brothers, I feel like I'm about to betray, I found a good novel on Shiyue.com.

The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea: It's still published, and it's finished!

Take off Wuhu: What is it called?
The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea: It's called "Bird in a Cage"...I feel sorry for the dog author!I think this author's book is better than the dog author's previous book! "
