Rebirth of the Great Era 1993

Du Shuangling, who Zou Qingzhu said was very generous, was getting on the train in Shao City at this time.

We didn’t arrive at CUHK until 10 a.m. the next day.

Dudong and Ai Qing are very protective of their two daughters and have to escort them every time, and this time is no exception.

Dad, Mom, drink tea.

Zhang Xuan didn't sleep much last night, so he slept for 2 hours this morning. He was very sleepy at the moment.

Dudong knew that he would meet foreign friends in the afternoon and hurriedly urged him to go to bed.

Zhang Xuan did not refuse, but found an opportunity to give the jade bracelet to Ai Qing:

Mom, I bought this when I was shopping in Shanghai. I don't know if you like it or not.

Ai Qing took the box with a smile on his face, opened it, put it on his hand, turned his wrist, and immediately praised it with a smile on his face: It looks good!

As long as it looks good, Zhang Xuan is also happy in his heart.

Ai Qing said happily: You go to bed first, I will wake you up for lunch later.

good.

bedroom.

As soon as the door closed, Zhang Xuan hugged Du Shuangling and put his head on her face and neck to greedily take advantage of her.

Du Shuangling looked at him tenderly and liked him very much.

After a while, Zhang Xuan restrained his desire and took out two red boxes from the bedside table.

Du Shuangling asked in surprise: Both of them are for me?

Yes, open it and take a look. Zhang Xuan said.

Yes. Du Shuangling opened it as instructed, her eyebrows raised slightly in the next second, and her brows were filled with joy.

Zhang Xuan asked: Does it look good?

Du Shuangling kissed him and said, My dear, your vision is getting better and better.

Zhang Xuan held her waist: Which one do you like?

Both of them look good, I like them both.

With that said, Du Shuangling took out the happy four-leaf clover gold earrings and gave them to him: Put them on for me.

The old man had done this kind of thing a lot in his previous life. After wearing it, he was given a one-stop service as a gift.

Feeling the moisture at her earlobes, Du Shuangling's whole body entered a tingling and trance state.

After a long time, she hugged him with a smile on her face and asked, My dear, aren't you going to sleep?

Du Shuangling's cheeks fluttered and she murmured softly for the first time.

Because there was someone in the living room outside, the two hugged each other for a while and finally separated.

Zhang Xuan sleeps.

Du Shuangling left the bedroom and went into the kitchen to help.

Seeing her come in, Zou Qingzhu joked: Shuangling, your neck is allergic.

Hearing this, Wen Hui, who was washing vegetables, subconsciously looked at Du Shuangling. After slowly scanning her lips and neck, her eyes stopped at her chest.

Du Shuangling was startled and ran back to her bedroom. I thought it had just been plowed once, would there be any marks?

Wen Hui smiled and said, You are bluffing Shuang Ling like this, be careful she will retaliate against you in the future.

Zou Qingzhu smiled obsequiously, his mouth closed with joy.

It's after two o'clock in the afternoon.

Tao Ge came, along with 9 people from Penguin Press.

Li Mei was very efficient and rented a floor in a hotel outside Zhongda University for this group of people to live.

Today is the first day of school. When the blond and blue-eyed group walked into the CUHK, they caused quite a stir.

When they learned the identity of this group of people and the purpose of their visit, it caused a stir.

Fortunately, the old student of CUHK had already surrendered to this young great writer.

But the freshmen who come to CUHK to report are different, and the parents of the new students who accompany them are different.

For a time, a legend was circulating in every freshman reporting office and every freshman dormitory.

Always ask when meeting: Did you hear that our senior is publishing a new book?

When meeting, he will reply: I heard about it, it's really amazing!

The campus of CUHK is like this, and the outside world of CUHK is no less generous.

The media reporters in Yangcheng were like dogs with noses. They caught wind of the situation and more than 30 people came in a short time.

Fortunately, Principal Gao was very helpful and sent people in advance to block these long guns and cannons outside the school and told them:

Now is the critical moment of March's creation. No one can be seen and no one can be disturbed.

Even so, the major evening newspapers in Yangcheng still published a news on the front page that day: World-class Writer: The Road to Conquest in March.

The news reports were bombastic and filled with pride and national pride.

There was even a media outlet that used the term Western coming to North Korea.

There was an uproar outside, but Zhang Xuan ignored it.

Tao Ge and everyone from Penguin Press ignored it.

On the other hand, Du Dudong and Ai Qing were very excited. What does this mean?

This represents prestige!

This means respect!

The couple has lived for decades, and this is the first time they have been so excited.

Even when I bought Santana, I didn't feel this way.

At this moment, Du Dudong remembered the time when he gave Ai Qing laxatives.

I felt very proud, secretly thinking that I had made the right move.

Nowadays, the Du family no longer lives in their own reputation, but in the bright halo of their young son-in-law.

But the Du family was happy.

Especially Du Jingling and Wu Ruiguo, who work at Xiangya Hospital, have the deepest experience.

Because of Zhang Xuan, the couple was extremely popular in the hospital.

In the past, minor quarrels between colleagues were kept away from the two of them, and the leader also paid special attention to the two of them.

Every time at this time, Du Jingling would happily worry: What should we do if Shuangling and Zhang Xuan separate in the future?

Wu Ruiguo comforted: I think your worries are completely unnecessary. It's not like you haven't seen the relationship between Zhang Xuan and Shuang Ling before, so there is no possibility of breaking up.

Du Jingling spoke in a low voice: I'm not worried about the two actors. I'm worried that Zhang Xuan is too good and some women will pounce on him regardless.

Unexpectedly, Wu Ruiguo thought for a while and then said: Actually, there is no need to worry about this. In this society, any good man will attract some women.

When the topic reached this point, the couple looked at each other and wisely stopped discussing it any further.

But Du Jingling couldn't help but think of one thing: Shuangling told her before the college entrance examination that a girl was pursuing Zhang Xuan, which made her feel a sense of crisis.

study.

Daniel, the editor-in-chief of Penguin Publishing, is now eager to have three accompanying translators start translating the first 100,000 words of the text.

He will grade the quality of the book based on these 100,000 words.

Then decide how to word it, how to provide suggestions to the publisher, and what level of resource channels the publisher should use?

It is indeed a global super publishing giant!

The three translators from Penguin Publishing House are very good. They have been engaged in the novel translation industry for many years. Their rich experience and professionalism are beyond Zhang Xuan's imagination. It's not comparable to Jasmine from the capital.

Every time there is a disagreement in translation, as long as Zhang Xuan points out the words, people can immediately find the words and expressions that match Zhang Xuan, which makes the old man very comfortable and worry-free.

Of course, the most important thing is to save time.

Three days later, Daniel excitedly gave Zhang Xuan a big hug:

SanYue, you are a super genius! You are a global star! I will be your most loyal reader from now on! This book is great!

Damn it! This foreigner's belly is too big and he looks miserable.

Zhang Xuan replied humbly: Thank you for your compliment. There will be more exciting things to come.

Daniel patted him hard on the shoulder: I'm looking forward to it, I'm looking forward to it!

In fact, Zhang Xuan was completely expecting the foreigner to be so excited.

Due to the previous two epic works The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, it has successfully opened up a broad audience in Europe and the United States.

Fantasy in Europe and the United States is like martial arts in the East. They are both genes that are spread in the bones.

Therefore, it is completely conceivable that Song of Ice and Fire can get Daniel's excitement all at once.

That afternoon, Daniel reported the situation to Penguin Press: Nice!

Simply nice expresses everything.

After receiving such high praise, the big machine of Penguin Publishing in the UK immediately started operating and launched global publicity.

afternoon.

Tao Ge opened the door and walked in.

Zhang Xuan looked up at her and continued writing.

Tao Ge sat across from me elegantly, Sister, I just came from the hotel and will sign a publishing contract tonight.

Zhang Xuan said yes.

Tao Ge continued: Penguin Press hopes to sign a long-term contract with you.

Zhang Xuanxiao asked: Are they afraid that I will run away from behind?

Tao Ge explained: “Originally there was no such concern, but they rated the book very highly.”

At this point, Tao Ge stared at him with a strange expression: You might not believe it if I tell you.

My sister even has the illusion that they like this book more than The Wind-up Girl.

Zhang Xuan said: I believe it.

Tao Ge was in disbelief: Do you believe it? Didn't you say that it would be difficult for this book to surpass The Wind-Up Girl in terms of height and sales?

Zhang Xuan told her: 'Clockwork Girl' is pure science fiction. 'A Song of Ice and Fire' is strictly a fantasy, and the genres are very different. It is understandable that Daniel's attitude is different.

Tao Ge thought for a few seconds and understood.

Then she asked: Then do you agree to sign a long-term contract?

Zhang Xuan asked, Do I still have a choice?

Tao Ge said seriously: I really have no choice. I have read the Penguin Press agreement. It is very sincere and we are not aggrieved. After all, the couple is still the original couple. It is good for everyone to continue to cooperate for a long time.

Zhang Xuan agrees with this statement. Only a stupid person would leave such a powerful publishing house unused.

After talking about this matter, Tao Ge talked about another thing.

She said: I talked to Rowling and she is willing to open a studio with you.

Zhang Xuan asked: How willing are you? Have you ever deceived others?

Tao Ge smiled and said, Sister, is this kind of person in your heart?

Zhang Xuan said: I simply feel that coaxing is the last resort and the lowest means.

Tao Ge nodded: Don't worry, melons that have been forced since ancient times are not sweet. I understand this truth.

Zhang Xuan asked: Have you been in contact with Warner Pictures?

Tao Ge said: We got in touch, and the first meeting ended on bad terms.

Zhang Xuan was surprised: Breaking up on bad terms?

Tao Ge said, I did it on purpose.

Hearing the elegant meaning of Xian, Zhang Xuan understood clearly: For better chips?

Tao Ge replied: Of course.

Zhang Xuan asked: When will we meet next?

Tao Ge replied: I have discussed this matter with Luo Lin and let it dry out first before talking about it.

Now that the influence of Harry Potter is increasing day by day, we are not in a hurry. The longer we delay, the better it will be for us.

Zhang Xuan thought it was reasonable and asked: How many copies of the second Harry Potter volume have been sold?

Tao Ge looked at him without speaking.

Zhang Xuan fainted, Say quickly, don't get excited.

Tao Ge said, Call me sister.

Ha! Zhang Xuan laughed: Have you agreed to be serious with me?

Tao Ge put his right hand on the table and tilted his chin: If you are not serious, I will kiss you as soon as you enter the door.

Zhang Xuan glanced sideways: It's not like you've never been kissed before?

Tao Ge said: It was precisely because of the kiss that I lost my fig leaf.

Zhang Xuan rolled his eyes: How much?

Tao Ge laughed and said to Yan Yan: In August, the first volume of Harry Potter sold more than 14 million copies, and the second volume sold more than 23 million copies.

Although he had long known that Harry Potter was very powerful and had transcended the limits of the universe, he was still a little confused by the fact that there were tens of millions of copies at every turn.

I couldn't help but ask: How much?

Tao Ge said: A total of 46.44 million pounds, converted into RMB 557 million.

Zhang Xuan paused for a moment, then let out a heavy breath: In terms of pounds, am I also a billionaire now?

Tao Ge said: From July 20 to now, a total of 15.52 million copies have been sold in 44 days, bringing you 66.734 million pounds.

Congratulations to you, sister. Even if you are in the West, you are a veritable billionaire.

Hearing the sound of money, Zhang Xuan was very happy, but then he sighed:

I now owe the bank more than 2 billion. If you include the capital, it will be close to 4 billion.

The start-up capital of the three commercial complexes is almost 4 billion.

Hey, I'm so fucking rich, but I'm still a pauper.

Tao Ge smiled and said: Don't worry about the money from the bank. It's an interest-free loan anyway. It won't be a problem if you pay it back in ten or eight years.

Besides, being able to owe so much money is a skill and a big deal. With my sister here, the bank won't do anything to you, so what are you afraid of?

This is the truth, with this thigh around, he is really not afraid at all.

In the evening, Zhang Xuan officially signed an agreement with Penguin Publishing House.

It is confirmed that all seven volumes of A Song of Ice and Fire will be published by Penguin Press.

Penguin Publishing also reciprocates the favor, providing the top-notch royalties in the publishing industry at 20%.

Don’t underestimate this 20%. Looking at the world, there are only a few writers who can achieve this step.

Even clockwork girls only have 18%,

Imagine if the seven volumes of A Song of Ice and Fire sold 100 million copies worldwide, how much money could 2% make?

£56 million!

This is the net worth of a millionaire!

After the signing ceremony, both parties had a hearty meal in a Western restaurant.

Back at the rental house, Ai Qing, who was lying on the bed, had not recovered yet. She turned sideways and said, I feel like this is all a dream.

The same goes for Du Dudong. After returning from the banquet, his mood was ups and downs.

He leaned against the bedside, smoking and sighing: It's a pity that Wangcheng died too early and could not enjoy the blessing of his son.
