"You are the most confident Chinese writer I have ever seen!"

In foreign countries' accustomed impressions of China, most people from China are relatively modest. Even if they are confident, they are self-confidence through actions, unlike Li Chungang, who starts from sitting in the conference room at the beginning. Every move, every word and deed is revealing his flying self-confidence.

Especially when he pointed his index finger at his head just now.

That kind of indomitable demeanor is almost beyond the level of self-confidence. This is not an action and demeanor that ordinary writers can easily make. Because this kind of action is matched with such words, if you can't do it, you'll be stupid [beep——]!

Yet they told Random House with three thumb-thick volumes of The Lord of the Rings and a map of Middle-earth nearly the size of a conference table.

I!

Li · is so confident · Chungang!

It's not a vain name!

As a publishing industry, Random House is also deeply influenced by capital, but it has its own set of unique "operating rules", which is the so-called work first, as long as your work is good enough, excellent enough, and touching enough, then Many problems will naturally no longer be problems.

Everyone sitting in the conference room is very clear that both sides attach great importance to this cooperation opportunity.

Li Chungang and the others planned to use Random House's reputation and channel as the world's No. 1 commercial publisher to help him take the first step from China to go overseas and go as far as possible; Caitlin's request was even simpler. , as long as the work is good enough to suppress Osvid in the next competition and successfully ascend the throne of the president.

Caitlin is carefully reading the book "The Lord of the Rings" in her hand.

Thompson is carefully reading the book "The Lord of the Rings" in his hand.

This is a great opportunity for them to learn more about The Lord of the Rings. They were only deeply attracted by its content before, but it does not mean that they have no doubts after reading the entire first content. On the contrary, it is worthwhile. There are too many places to raise doubts.

Now this thick, hand-bound book in front of them is the perfect solution to their problem.

Coupled with a map that can show the whole picture of Middle-earth, the veins of the leaf named "The Lord of the Rings" have never been so clearly displayed in front of them, plus the outline and various settings also make I have a rough idea of ​​where the storyline will go next.

five minutes.

ten minutes.

......

half an hour.

Don't look at the thickness of the left and right thumbs, but the inside is not all pure text content, there are many such as "Dwarf Family Relationship Tree Diagram", "Interracial Relationship Connection Diagram", "Character Setting Information Card", etc. , Most of these things are used to assist the author to be more adequate when writing, so as not to write and write because of some small problems.

Don't underestimate this small book "The Book of the Lord of the Rings", you must know that this is Li Chungang from five or six books, spent two or three days and nights focusing on it before he finally managed to catch up Done before leaving for the US.

On the contrary, it is the map of Middle-earth. The original "sketches" are indeed in his hands, but later they were handed over to professionals to refer to the sketches for retouching and processing. A shocking, full-scale map of Middle-earth that is unique to the real world map.

Caitlin let out a sigh of relief.

Thompson was relieved.

The rest of the people have a strong sense of joy in the village.

These are all useful information that Lin Meng captured from the other party's face during careful observation. Combined with the high standards of Random House's reception of their group, you must know that this is the era of global informationization, and I have never seen a pig run. If you haven’t eaten pork yet, you can naturally know from some sources how Random House normally invites writers to come to headquarters.

Although she couldn't accurately judge the reason for the other party's concealment, this did not give up Lin Meng's conclusion that Random House or Caitlin, the vice president in front of her, valued the book "The Lord of the Rings" very much, and at the same time very valued this book. a collaboration.

As long as this basic judgment is made, then there will be more room for maneuvering in the negotiations between the two parties on the specific conditions of cooperation!

Thinking of this...

Lin Meng, who had a serious expression and barely said a word from the beginning to the end except to say hello, showed a smile for the first time. As long as she was sure of the other party's strong willingness to cooperate, she would have enough confidence to gain the upper hand in the negotiation with the other party. other side.

"Get the upper hand in the cooperation negotiation with Random House or even completely suppress the other party!"

This is something that many cooperative companies or writers would not dare to think about. You must know that others are always crying and begging to cooperate with Random House, and then publish their works to the world. Whether they make money or not is already another matter. The thing is, the most important thing is to become famous all over the world. After you become famous, whether it is to continue to cooperate or make money, it is not easy.

"Then before we get to the main topic, as usual, there is a question that needs to be confirmed!" Caitlin put her hands on the conference table, leaned forward slightly, and finally stared straight at Li Chungang, as if she had to use her eyes. Thoroughly see through this young and talented young man in front of him.

"Speaking."

"Mr. Li, are you the original author of The Lord of the Rings, and do you own the publishing rights?"

You must know that this question is basically a question that all publishers in the world will ask, and it is also the most important question~www.readwn.com~ You must know that if Li Chungang is not the original author of this novel, the publishing copyright is not in his hands. So why do they need to continue talking about wasting time?

"I can definitely answer you, Ms. Caitlin, I wrote The Lord of the Rings, and I own the publishing rights!"

"good!"

After Catelyn got a positive answer, she let out a sigh of excitement. Things went smoothly beyond her expectations. Not only did she successfully meet the author, she even learned that the book "The Lord of the Rings" is far better than the book. The content they saw in the first part was better, and they were still a little uneasy about whether they could compete with Kepel Ron in the ring.

Now it seems--

It's her who is a little worried!

The advantage of Kepel Ron is that after two years of hard work, he has become a world-renowned mystery novelist, but the disadvantage is precisely here. Although there are many readers who love mystery novels in the world, it is more Readers of this Dungeons and Dragons style Western fantasy novel are not worth mentioning.

Another way to describe it is the world of difference between the fantasy channel and the suspense channel!
