I really don't want to be a novelist

Chapter 165 What an Old Man

"Well, the author of the dog changed gender today? With so many updates, is this still the short monster?"

This is the first comment that Ji Zhuoshou waited in front of the computer,
Seeing that Ji Zhuo's mood is a bit complicated,

And then the second comment,

"Upstairs, don't be surprised, it's because the book is finished, otherwise you think the dog author can do more? Impossible."

Good guy, the mood is more complicated.

want to say something,

But Ji Zhuo had nothing to say.

So he buttoned up the computer and got up to go out.

I didn't think so before,

At this moment, after finishing typing and updating, I feel that Wuzang Temple is already rebelling, and my stomach is rumbling.

……

"Grass growing in the canyon: "Night Tour Fengdu City" is the finale, and the author of the dog has updated six chapters today."

"Zeng Canghai: I know.

Grass growing in the canyon: Damn it, "Night Tour Fengdu City" has come to an end!
Zeng Canghai: Damn it! "Night Tour Fengdu City" has come to an end +1"

In the reader group, some Sand Sculpture readers with familiar names are chatting.

Someone sent out a red envelope of 'End of Sprinkling Flowers', which attracted a lot of readers.

Ji Zhuo, who was on his way out for dinner, also touched one.

"Little Black House: It's over and I've been raising flowers for three days, and I can finally watch it, woo woo woo!
The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea: You have only raised them for three days, and I have raised them for... a full four days.Hey, the dog author's book can't be kept, I can't help it.

I'm a mortal: I'll just say one thing, I haven't watched the finale yet, so please don't spoil me.

Xiaoheiwu: Didn’t you see it?Ah, I get it. I get it.

Xiaoheiwu: Let me tell you, the finale is Zhang Cheng, isn't it...

I'm mortal: shit, shut up, I can't see.

Tip: Xiaoheiwu was banned by the administrator for half an hour. "

These sand sculpture netizens are the source of happiness,
Ji Zhuo watched with relish,

But right now most of the readers don't have time to chat in the group,
Instead, they all slipped to read novels.

follow closely,

Someone sent Ji Zhuo a private chat message.

There are editor-in-chief Qian and editor-in-chief Tao from Huating Publishing House and Modu Publishing House,

With the pen and ink of non-ink novels,

There is also the editor-in-chief of the editorial team of Shiyue.com, who has not been seen for a long time.

And Yun Qingmu.

For example, the news that "A Night Tour in Fengdu City" was finished completely blasted all these people out.

The two chief editors of Huating Publishing House and Modu Publishing House,

Naturally, it's a rehash of the past,
I haven't discussed the publication of "Night Tour Fengdu City" before,

Now that "Night Tour in Fengdu City" is finished, it is natural to talk about it again.

"Editor Qian: Mr. Bugong, congratulations on the completion of your new work. You have created another excellent novel."

"Editor Tao: Mr. Ji, congratulations on the completion of your "Night Tour in Fengdu City". I have also read the finale. It is really well written."

As expected of old friends, the contents of the messages they sent were similar.

Ji Zhuo also replied two similar messages to the two,

"Clumsy and uncommon: Editor Qian, is it about the publication of "Night Tour Fengdu City"? Editor Tao also contacted me, here I..."

"Editor Qian: That old man, I knew it, and he likes to take advantage of the fire. The book here is just finished, so I rushed to find it. It's obvious that our publishing house has a good cooperation with you, Mr. Bugong, but you want to come out and cut it! "

"Editor Qian: Mr. Bugong, don't worry, you don't have to make trouble, I'll tell the old man about it!"

……

"Clumsy and uncommon: Editor Tao, it's... Editor Qian also contacted me, and here I am..."

"Editor Tao: Don't worry, I understand. I knew that old bastard came to embarrass you again, Mr. Ji. It's just that you have collaborated with Mr. Ji on a book. It is obvious that our publishing house has cooperated well with Mr. Ji. Yes, he just wanted to intervene. Don't worry, Mr. Ji, if you can't get rid of your feelings, I'll talk to that old bastard."

Ok……

Then you two discuss it first.

Come to me after discussing it.

Looking at the news that the two editors cooperated,
Ji Zhuo didn't come back either.

For him, it doesn't matter which publishing house he chooses,

The main reason is that it is inappropriate to reject any one of them. After all, they are old partners, and the conditions are very generous, and they are respected enough. It is better to let the two of them discuss it by themselves.

Then Ji Zhuo went on,
After seeing the message from the editor-in-chief of the editorial group of Shiyue.com,

At first I thought it was because of the completion of "Night Tour in Fengdu City" to congratulate,
It turned out not to be.

"Editor-in-chief: Mr. Ji, I'm sorry to bother you. Congratulations on the completion of "Night Tour in Fengdu City", and also congratulations to Mr. Ji on your "Bird in a Cage" selling overseas."

"Clumsy and uncommon: Thank you, what's the matter with the editor-in-chief?

Editor-in-Chief of Shiyue: Then I’ll cut to the chase.It's Mr. Ji, your "Bird in a Cage" has been released overseas... the copyright of the electronic version is still in your hands, right? "

"Clumsy and uncommon: In my hands, what does the editor-in-chief mean?"

I remember that when "Bird in a Cage" was first released, Shiyue asked about the electronic copyright of "Bird in a Cage".

Want to spend some royalties to put the electronic version of "The Caged Bird" on the first reading website.

But at that time, out of respect for the publishing house and the problems of the system,
Ji Zhuo didn't agree, now is it going to bring up the old matter again?

"Shiyue Editor-in-Chief: That's...Recently, Shiyue.com is planning to prepare an international website for Shiyue's novels, targeting the overseas online novel market...need some excellent works to open up the situation.

Editor-in-chief: Mr. Ji, your "Bird in a Cage" is a big seller overseas, and as a science fiction novel, it doesn't have a big cultural threshold..."

It means that Ji Zhuo's "Bird in a Cage" has the ability to attract readers overseas,

"Editor-in-Chief Shiyue: We want to pay some licensing fees, or share of electronic sales, to obtain the authorization of the electronic version of "The Bird in the Cage."

The words of the editor-in-chief of Shiyue.com made Ji Zhuo pause.
Strictly speaking, the electronic copyright of "The Bird in the Cage" is actually in his own hands, whether domestic or foreign.

To whom is his freedom to license the electronic copyright,

But now that "The Caged Bird" has just started to be released overseas, if Ji Zhuo agrees to authorize it,
It will inevitably affect the sales of physical books, although it may not affect Ji Zhuo's own income,

But for the cooperative publishing house, it is really not authentic, and even a little immoral.

After thinking about it, Ji Zhuo shook his head, told the truth about the situation, and chose to refuse.

"Clumsy and uncommon: I'm sorry, editor-in-chief, the overseas publication of "Bird in a Cage" has just started, so if you authorize it now...

Clumsy and uncommon: I believe Shiyue.com will definitely give me a satisfactory price, but..."

The editor-in-chief of Shiyue.com obviously understood what Ji Zhuo said.
I didn't force it anymore,
"Editor-in-Chief of Shiyue: Mr. Ji is a sincere gentleman, and it must be a pleasure working with you.

Editor-in-Chief of Shiyue: It’s okay, if it’s inconvenient now, after a period of time, after the overseas sales of “The Bird in a Cage” stabilizes, we can talk about the licensing of the electronic version.

Clumsy and extraordinary: Thank you. "

After chatting with the editor-in-chief of Shiyue.com,

Ji Zhuo looked down further,

Only the editor pen ink and Yun Qingmu's messages were left,

There's nothing left in the news.

Congratulations on finishing his novel,
By the way, I casually asked about his new book,
Ji Zhuo naturally replied, 'I'm getting ready, I'm getting ready'

Then the chat is over.

As for Yun Qingmu,
After reading the ending of the novel, I want to have dinner with Ji Zhuo,
Maybe, probably, I also want to pay attention to Ji Zhuo's new writing,

It is best to know the name and type of the new book from his mouth in advance like this book.

Ji Zhuo thought for a while,
He raised his head and glanced at the restaurant he had already walked to,
Send the name of the restaurant to Yun Qingmu.

……

"...Ji Zhuo, do you have any plans for a new book?"

After having enough water and food, Yun Qingmu still showed her fox tail.
