Two days later, Thompson took over the results of a random street survey sent by a trusted colleague in the United States via email. The core content of the entire survey can be said to be quite clear at a glance, but it is extremely important, and most of the rest are collected by hand. The reason for the purchase and some personal opinions on their Random House incidentally are just for reference.

See the big from the small, and get an overview from the point of view.

Although this general survey only represents one of the countless streets in the entire United States, this data is still of reference significance. When zoomed in to the entire United States, some particularly xenophobic continents and some continents where Chinese gather is balanced with each other, this ratio. Even if there are errors, it will not be too different.

The willingness to purchase rate of 34.7% does not reach the 70-75% purchase rate of books published by Random House, which is the most basic purchase rate, not even one-half. Inside Thompson frowned and looked solemn.

Even "Ghost Blowing Lamp", which was released in China for three consecutive months and won the sales championship of the month, could not break this "stalemate", which made Thompson feel that his future prospects were caught in a cloud of gloom, and he was caught off guard for a while. .

"Unpublished... work, I hope this book can be as wonderful as you say it is."

With a purchase rate of 34.7%, it is no surprise that if such a proposal is submitted to the Penguin Random House headquarters in the United States, you don’t have to think about it, you will be rejected mercilessly!

Thompson, who has no better choice now, can only hope for another book that is still confident and sworn in front of him, a book that is more suitable for publishing overseas and better than "Ghost Blowing the Lamp". I don't know why, Thompson There is no reason to have such a feeling.

Li Chungang had no idea of ​​sleeping with another married man.

So Luo Wen watched Li Chungang use it very quickly and smoothly in the hotel room, and after completing the rest of "The Lord of the Rings" with almost no smoothness, he left the hotel in shock and reluctance. .

The Shanghai branch of Penguin Random House is on Lujiazui. It is not far from Li Chungang's location, or not close, because there is a certain distance between the two, and the distance is full of busy roads. It will definitely take time.

Instead of letting Rowan take time to come over, he made an appointment to meet at the Shanghai branch of Random House.

Li Chungang returned the laptop to the hotel intact, and left the hotel with a freshly printed manuscript that smelled of ink.

The unfinished script of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" had to be temporarily stored in his Koukou mailbox for safety reasons, and things were also prioritized. In Li Chungang's view, the opportunity to cooperate with Random House to publish overseas must be more important this time. a little!

Sitting in a taxi, turning his head to watch the bustling Shanghai and people passing by and rushing along the road, Li Chungang showed a somewhat satisfied smile.

For such a long time, Li Chungang is very grateful to the [system] for "forcing" himself to become a writer. Looking back, he has accomplished a lot of his dreams while earning money that he could never imagine before. Now I want to come here. ......

pretty good!

People without far-reaching worries must have near-term concerns. How many authors have once conferred a **** on one book, but in the second book, they can only rely on their old books and sell their feelings, and see the godhead quickly fall day by day?

How many arrogances have disappeared in the future?

Li Chungang knows how much he weighs. The [Literature Encyclopedia System] is his golden finger. It is good to rely on it to step on the top of the mountain step by step, but if he loses the system one day, will he? He is the one who has become Jiang Lang's talents!

Therefore, Li Chungang has been formulating a long-term plan for his future that does not seek to be good, but seeks stability.

In this long-term plan, the choice of future residence occupies a very large proportion.

Pengcheng without his parents has become a sad place for Li Chungang. Other relatives did not contact him before, and there is no need to contact him after that.

Young people do not have so much consideration for the choice of future residence. The reasons are nothing more than luxury cars, many beautiful women, and rich nightlife. This is also the main reason why Li Chungang finally chose Shanghai instead of Yanjing.

If he was in his fifties or sixties, Li Chungang might consider buying a courtyard house in Yanjing, where he would walk the birds, walk the dog every day, and play mahjong, a national quintessence, with the old ladies and grandpas in the neighborhood.

"I don't know if Rowan said last time that he had finished watching the house."

In China, if you have a lot of money but no good investment direction, then investing in real estate in first-tier cities is a sure-fire investment.

Random House Shanghai branch.

"Mary, is anyone looking for me?"

"Ah, no, Thompson."

"Really, if someone comes to me, remember to notify me as soon as possible."

"OK."

The appointment time between Li Chungang and Luo Wen was around 10:15 in the morning.

When Li Chungang got out of the car, he happened to see Rowan who was getting off the Corolla behind the taxi he was riding~www.readwn.com~ The two looked at each other and looked at each other, perhaps a little surprised that they would get off. Such a coincidence.

This time, the waiting time is completely saved.

"Hello, we're looking for Mr. Thompson."

If you are in a Japanese company, their corporate culture will require employees to meticulously focus on work and business during working hours; if you are in a rice company, it is completely different. As long as the tasks can be completed on time and as required, the leaders will not mind. How you work during working hours.

Even if you open the web page to watch movies and watch dramas during work hours, turn on your mobile phone to brush Douyin, or enjoy snacks and drinks in the break.

So when the two entered the 16th floor where the Shanghai branch of Random House is located, they saw the scene in front of them: the lady at the front desk was comfortably doing nail care for herself during work hours, while sliding and placing it on the table from time to time. Douyin of mobile phone.

Seeing someone make a sound, she raised it to look at the two in front of her. Of course, the young lady at the front desk was paying more attention to Li Chungang, who was looking online. Thinking of Thompson's previous explanation, she immediately said, "Trouble you two, please wait a moment. , I'll let Mr. Thompson know."
