"What if the system forces me to copy books( to find the latest chapter!

Client: Penguin Random House (Caitlin)

Party B: Li Chungang (pen name: Zhichun Zhigang)

After receiving a nod from Qin Jingtian, the head of the company's legal department, indicating that there was no problem with the contract, Li Chungang happily signed his name and pseudonym on Party B at the end of the last page of the contract.

When it comes to this pseudonym, Ms. Caitlin once suggested that he should start a new English pseudonym that is suitable for overseas markets, or simply use his own name to go into battle like most foreign writers, plus "Zhichunzhigang". "If these four pseudonyms, which seem meaningful in Chinese, want to be translated into English, it will be a bit embarrassing for translators.

"I want my readers to enjoy my work, not me as an author."

"So I don't think there is a need to change the pseudonym. When you publish it, you can print it directly in the Chinese font."

At that time, Random House, which was eager to reach a cooperation agreement, agreed on the principle of respecting the author's own wishes, and as Li Chungang said, as a pseudonym, it does not affect the quality and sales of a book. Yes, and maybe the quaint and quaint Chinese pseudonym is easier for readers to remember.

Just like when a contract is signed between the leaders of the country.

Li Chungang and Caitlin also stood up and exchanged the signed contract, and in front of all the media reporters on the scene, their right hand tightly clasped the air.

"Happy cooperation!"

"necessary!"

Moderator: "The media reporters and friends who are present will have ten minutes to ask questions. The questioning object can be our president Caitlin, or our author Mr. Li Chungang. In addition, I would like to remind everyone to pay attention to questions. The scale of the problem, and the question of race and religious beliefs, don’t speak up.”

coming!

The much-anticipated reporter Q&A session is finally here!

As soon as the host's voice fell, the media reporters below were afraid that they would not be able to grab the opportunity to ask questions even a second later than their peers, and raised their hands in an instant.

Looking at the arms that were raised in unison at the bottom of the stage, Li Chungang couldn't help but feel a little emotional: "If the teachers in class ask questions, the students in the audience who raise their hands to answer the questions can have such a scene, how many teachers should this be? It's a sense of achievement!"

It is a pity that in this country, except for the "open class" which is more like a deliberate show sometimes, this kind of scene can be said to be basically cut off. A student of the Xueba type is disdainful of answering low-level questions of this level; a good student can answer or not, and he does not take the initiative to raise his hand until he is picked up; for a poor student, he must dodge his eyes for the first time. I wish the teacher could not see me; only the scumbag...

Let's wake him up from his sleep first.

Moderator: "A reporter from the Associated Press (AP)."

The Associated Press reporter named by the host stood up from his seat with a flat face. As the largest news agency in the United States and one of the international news agencies, the cooperative relationship with Random House, the world's largest commercial publishing house, is friendly and lasting. It's not uncommon for the news outlet to be the first to ask a question, so there's no fuss about it.

While waiting for the staff to pass the microphone to him, the reporter from the Associated Press quickly opened his notepad, turned to a blank page, and was ready to record at any time. As for the questions he wanted to ask... that's not It should have been in my head by now!

"Mr. Li Chungang, what do you think about the famous mystery novelist Kepel Ron who called you a 'clown' on Twitter half an hour ago, and threatened that your work will be published and sold on the same day as his new book. What about failure?"

"..."

After hearing the Associated Press reporter's question, Li Chungang's first reaction was a bit dazed, because he was ok with Kepel Ron's blatant provocation on Twitter half an hour ago. It is said that I did not know it, but I recalled that I was still living the process with the staff in the backstage of the venue at that time.

And if his memory is not wrong, the question of the Associated Press reporter in front of him is different from the one they agreed to at the beginning.

Of course, it doesn't mean how tricky and difficult to answer this question. On the contrary, Li Chungang thinks it's a bit incredible. According to his and Caitlin's plan, even if Kepel Ron did not take the initiative to provoke, he will arrange it in advance. When a good reporter asks questions, he will always be the one who took the initiative to provoke the war.

It's just that Kepel Ron is just a step ahead on Twitter now.

But that's fine, at least he doesn't have to be the one who provokes others, he can use Kepel Ron to make a fuss with peace of mind, and the other party foolishly wants to jump into the trap himself, no one can blame others.

Keepel Ron is a real jerk!

"Wefight! (from Captain America 3

"I will use my strength to prove ~www.readwn.com~ who is the 'clown'!"

clap clap-

Li Chungang responded with domineering in both Chinese and English. I have to say that I have to say that I have to have the appetite of all the domestic media reporters present. Maybe it is the humble expression of the Chinese people, so that it is the first time that they have seen someone face a challenge internationally. The response was so overbearing and indomitable.

"good!"

Some people even shouted excitedly on the spot.

Fortunately, it was in Mandarin, not everyone present could understand it.

Regardless of whether he is satisfied or not, Li Chungang's answer to this question has ended, and while expressing his attitude, he will also set up the opposing position with Kepper Ron. Naturally, there will be media reporters taking advantage of the situation to play the topic, no matter what. Whether it is to step on him, a new and tender author who is not afraid of being a newcomer to the global stage, or to support the well-known mystery novelist Keipel Ron who has proven himself, as long as the topic can be hyped, then their purpose will be successful. It's done!

Moderator: "The next question is for a reporter from Reuters."

"Thank you host."

Compared with the reporter from the Associated Press who temporarily changed the question, the reporter from Reuters seemed to be quite normal. As agreed with Random House in advance, he asked Li Chungang about the inspiration and background of the creation of "The Lord of the Rings". problem.

Next...

Globally influential media reporters such as Gaul News Agency, CCTV News, Xinhua News Agency, and News of the World have all received questions from the host.

It's just that the subjects of their questions were, without exception, Li Chungang, who was full of topics. In contrast, Caitlin next to him seemed to have a sense of being left out.
