"What am I doing at 22?"

This was the first question that came to mind in the soul of everyone present, but the answer to this question made them feel ashamed.Even at the age of 22, the sons of some media reporters who are present are older. Think about what your son has done when he grows up, and think about how he has not only achieved fame in the domestic literary circles in China, but also gained fame and fortune. Thinking of this...

Many people secretly made up their minds to "teach" their sons a lesson after returning home!

Or try the Eastern book on educating sons that "a filial son is born with a stick".

As more and more Chinese students studying abroad are gaining fame in foreign universities, foreigners have really seen the "education" from the East, but all the students who can stay abroad are those who have the halo of being a master. Kind of like, before entering the school, he had already received a full scholarship, and after entering the school, he beat foreign friends in all kinds of fancy ways. These foreign friends who felt very good about themselves once became self-doubting.

For a time, the reputation of the oriental education method as "a genius comes from a stick" spread like wildfire.

Host: "Then let us give the warmest applause to welcome the protagonist of our global press conference today, Li Chungang, a writer from Huaguo, to appear on the stage!!!"

clap clap clap-

I have to say that the foreign media reporters are still very face-saving. The applause for Li Chungang's appearance was obviously much louder than that for Caitlin's appearance, and all the machine directions on the scene were aimed at the one from the backcourt for the first time. The only sip on the front desk.

Concentrating on holding your breath, place your right index finger at a height of [-] centimeters above the camera shutter, waiting quietly for the moment when the protagonist steps onto the stage.

"Whoo~"

It sounds like an occasion like a press conference. Li Chungang dare not say that he is experienced in many battles, but he has quite a lot of experience and experience in China. He has also seen the press conference of his new book and drama. Quite a few, but it’s really the first time that Random House has hosted an event on such a global scale.

It would be a lie to say that you are not nervous!

Taking a deep breath, before stepping onto the stage, he quickly went through the entire process of today's global signing conference in his brain, as well as some slightly tricky questions on the previous list of questions, and finally double-checked his own After dressing without any flaws, he stepped out with a confident smile.

This step will also mean that he has entered the eyes of readers all over the world.

clack clack...

The shutter was pressed crazily as if there was no need for money. Countless flashlights made the scene full of daytime. Even Li Chungang's eyes could not adapt to the intensity of flashlights at that moment, and subconsciously narrowed his eyes slightly .

Although the host had already introduced today's master to all the media reporters present, when Li Chungang appeared on the stage, they found that they were still limited by their imagination.

As for the domestic media reporters, except for the professional photographer who was still frantically capturing Li Chungang’s figure according to the shutter of the camera, the rest of them were already in the shock that they couldn’t help themselves the second he appeared on the stage. I guessed countless famous writers in China, but I still didn't expect it to be Li Chungang.

It may be the first time for some reporters who have been stationed abroad to see Li Chungang in person for the first time, but for the domestic media reporters, this face and figure should not be too familiar!

Because the other party has become a god in the Internet literature circles like a shooting star last year, and since then, the topic has become more and more close. Some celebrities and Internet celebrities dream of wanting the last hot search on him, as if As usual, a piece of big news will come out every once in a while.

Over time, it can be said that as long as there is no Internet access at home, there is no one in China who does not know the three words "Li Chungang".

The only difference lies in the degree of understanding.

In the eyes of the vast majority of people, the name Li Chungang is not as resounding as the pen name "Zhi Chun Zhi Gang", because this pen name has almost reached the "No. "Height.

As readers grow older, the requirements for online works will naturally rise.

In the past, even if it was a simple brainless Xiaobai Shuang article, readers could read it with relish for at least a day and a night without closing their eyes, but it is no longer possible now. The work must adapt to the trend and must have an excellent brain. Hole, compared to the brainless coolness or the relaxed and pleasant rhythm, it is more interesting to watch.

Many new works of great masters no longer adapt to the changes in the market, and have fallen one after another.

This phenomenon is no exception even for the former five supreme gods.

For example, as early as last year, Yaoyang has already been criticized by readers for new books and old books, as if they "copy and paste" the plot of the story, falling into a routine.

For example, Prisoner, with the acquisition of Huayu Novel.com, the update volume of old books is not as good as before, so that many readers have broken their hearts and switched to other camps.

Even the five supreme gods of the past were like this, not to mention some of the great god authors in the early years of the rapid development of online literature. However, talented people have emerged from generation to generation and have led the way for hundreds of years. Prominent young authors occupy high points, such as Zhichun Zhigang, monks going to brothels, eagles eating chicken cubs, etc.

"It's actually Li Chungang, this almost didn't break my glasses!"

"This is not literature, let alone science!"

"Actually, the moment I saw Li Chungang walking out, I suddenly realized that it was not surprising that it was him."

"One thing to say, I'm still chasing and updating his book "The Sword Comes" every day."

Obviously, many of the domestic media reporters present included readers and fans of Li Chungang. What's more, it was actually a small "mistake" by their media reporters. You must know that when the Golden Bookmark Awards ended, some domestic media It has been reported that Random House will cooperate with Li Chungang.

If you saw this report, you might have already guessed it...

If you can see these words, it proves that the content is correct!

Please feel free to use it.

Thank you preserved eggs~

Chapter 533 Demon Name Ring

The scene of the global signing conference.

Li Chungang's gorgeous appearance brought the already high scene atmosphere to another peak in an instant. All the media reporters and friends stared at the young man who had just appeared on the stage with bright eyes, almost unable to hold the questions they wanted to ask in their stomachs.

However, the question-and-answer session for media reporters was put at the end.

So here comes the key, now that the identity of the co-authors has been exposed, shouldn't it be time to reveal the works that will be published and sold globally after hiding them for so long!

Host: "Let us invite Mr. Li Chungang to announce the new book for you."

These are all pre-arranged procedures, and Li Chungang is not at all stage frightened when he hears the words: "There is a saying in China: Actions are always more convincing than words! What I can tell you is...

This is a brand new world, where there are countless unheard of races;

There are grievances and hatreds between various races, and there are stories of all races uniting and swearing to the death against darkness for freedom;

There is a heroic performance of one man and one cavalry with unparalleled combat power, and there is also an epic picture scroll of countless legion melees;

All the wonderful things are in "The Lord of the Rings", satisfying all your fantasies about western magic! "

In order to match his introduction, before the lingering sound of the word "thinking" was over, behind Li Chungang and Caitlin, a huge canvas fell down with a "bang", and on this canvas was a special A map of Middle-earth printed by someone.

You thought this was it! ?

The previous canvas with the overall map of Middle-earth only lasted for less than a minute, and the next picture fell immediately, and this time the content was about the human settings among the various races, such as those with beautiful appearances. The elves, the dwarfs who are no taller than the waist of a normal person, and the half-orcs with blue faces and fangs.

As Li Chungang said when he introduced the book "The Lord of the Rings" just now, the first canvas first showed a brand new world, and the second canvas showed an unheard of race, as if to prove that his introduction was not in the To deceive the reader in general, the third canvas is a veritable painting.

A painting depicting the epic battle of the Battle of the Five Armies.

To be honest, there are actually quite a few battles that can be called "epic" in the entire "Lord of the Rings", but for Li Chungang, who personally felt the charm of this book, it left him the deepest impression This is the scene.

One moment he was able to fall into internal fighting for the treasure, but the next moment he was able to let go of his prejudices and sincerely cooperate with the outside world after facing the orcs on the stage!

The most important thing is that this painting was made by him. It can be said that it is the best expression of his own painting skills after exchanging the series of painting skills. Only this painting depicting an epic battle can be called the pinnacle.

There are too many commendable things in the book "Lord of the Rings". The most important introduction, coupled with the "assists" of a few pictures, is more than enough to arouse the curiosity of countless readers around the world.

……

The media reporters in the audience only hated themselves for not exercising on weekdays, the speed of pressing the shutter was still slow, and there were still fewer personnel coming to the scene. If there were two photographers, why would it be like this? In order to clearly capture the contents of those canvases just now, I suddenly missed Li Chungang, who was the focus of the audience at the time of shooting.

The photographer thought he should be the busiest one in the audience.

Who knows that the partner next to the two-two combination is the one who yearns for the shadow clone technique the most. From the second of the global signing conference held by Random House... the pen held in the right hand has not stopped I'm making records, and the front is better. There are not many things worth recording, but there is really not much "dry stuff" before and after Li Chungang's appearance.

After the global press conference, you can watch the video content and then write a report.

Yes, that's true, but if you do...

congratulations!The industry of media reporters is really not suitable for you!

You must know what the core of the news is on the word "new", not "wen". You must know that there must be some colleagues who can come to the scene, not to mention one hundred, seventy or eighty, wait for you to watch the video playback Write out the news release and submit it. It is estimated that your colleagues have already broadcast the news content to the whole world.

Readers have already learned the detailed information through the latest reports of your colleagues, so your report will lose the word "new", and naturally you will lose a large number of original readers.

Unless your report contains some "exclusive content" that other media does not have, otherwise, when your second-hand news report comes out, readers who have already understood the ins and outs of the whole thing will not read you.

Compared with the traditional news media, the Internet media, which has gradually become the main media of the moment, shows their convenience at this time.

There is no need to wait until the end of the entire press conference. From the identity of the author to the information of the work, this is already enough information. The reporters from the Internet media together with the content captured by the photographer in front, plus The key content recorded by the partner is packaged and sent back to the company by email.

Then there will be a special copywriter in the company to compile a brand new news report based on these contents in the shortest time, and upload it to the homepage of its own news website as soon as it is completed, and put it on the top of the homepage without saying a word. At the same time, when it's over, it will send a background push to the users, so as to ensure that more users can know the news.

Needless to say, in fact, the identity of the co-author is not a big secret in China. This is also due to the fact that the number of readers and fans of Li Chungang is too large, and there are almost no "gaps" in this spread.

Now that this news is reported, it is more about some content of the new book "Lord of the Rings", in order to seize the first-hand news as soon as possible!

But these are not the things that Li Chungang needs to care about. What he should care about now is...

After signing the contract in front of him, how to deal with the tricky questions from the journalists in the following question and answer session.

The two contracts placed in front of him and Caitlin were handed over by someone they trusted.

Before the press conference, the two parties repeatedly confirmed that there were no loopholes and traps in the contract and kept each other. At the same time, in order to ensure that the contract would not be transferred before signing, the two people responsible for keeping the two contracts obtained the contract. From that moment on, he never left the opponent's field of vision.

Chapter 534

Party A: Penguin Random House (Katelyn)

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

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

Speaking of this pen name, Ms. Caitlin once suggested whether he should recreate an English pen name suitable for the overseas market, or simply use his own life to go into battle like most foreign writers, and add "Zhi Chun Zhi Gang" "If these four pseudonyms, which seem to have profound meanings in Chinese, want to be translated into English, it is somewhat embarrassing for the translator.

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

"So I don't think there is any need to change the pen name. When you publish it, you can just print it in Chinese characters."

At that time, Random House, who was eager to reach a cooperation agreement, agreed based on the principle of respecting the author's own wishes, and just as Li Chungang said, being a pseudonym does not actually affect the quality and sales of a book Yes, and maybe the antique and quaint Chinese pen name 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 contracts with each other, and in front of all the media reporters at the scene, their right hands were tightly held together with the air.

"Happy cooperation!"

"necessary!"

Moderator: "Next, all media reporters and friends present will have 10 minutes to ask questions. The object of the question can be our president Caitlin, or our author Mr. Li Chungang. In addition, I would like to remind everyone to pay attention to asking questions. It’s a question of scale, and questions about race and religion are out of the question.”

coming!

The long-awaited reporter questioning 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 if they were even a second behind their colleagues, so they raised their hands in an instant.

Looking at the arms raised up under the stage, Li Chungang couldn't help but feel a little emotional: "If the students in the audience raised their hands to answer the questions in class, there would be such a scene, how wonderful is this teacher?" There is a sense of accomplishment!"

It's a pity that in this country, except for the "open class" that is more like a deliberate show at times, this kind of scene can be said to be basically cut off.Students who are the master type don't bother to answer low-level questions of this level; good students can answer but don't answer, and don't take the initiative to raise their hands until they are drawn; poor students who don't know how to do it will definitely dodge their eyes at the first time I wish the teacher could not see me; only that scumbag...

You wake him up from his sleep first and then talk.

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

The Associated Press reporter who was named by the host stood up from his seat with a flattered expression on his 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 number one commercial publisher, is friendly and lasting. It's not uncommon for the news media to be the first to ask a question, so it's no surprise.

While waiting for the staff to hand the microphone to him, the Associated Press reporter quickly opened his notepad and turned to a blank page ready to record at any time. As for the question he wanted to ask... that should not have been in the in the head!

"Mr. Li Chungang, what do you think of the well-known mystery novelist Keppel Ron who called you a 'clown' on Twitter half an hour ago, and threatened that your work would be published 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 little confused, because he was okay with the fact that Keppel Ron had openly declared war on him on Twitter half an hour ago. I said I didn’t know anything about it, but if I think about it, I should be living the process with the staff in the backstage of the venue.

And if my memory is not wrong, the question asked by the Associated Press reporter in front of me is different from the question they agreed on at the beginning. It is not difficult to see that this question was also improvised by the other party.

Of course, it does not mean that this question is so tricky and difficult to answer. On the contrary, Li Chungang thinks it is somewhat unbelievable. Originally, according to his and Caitlin's plan, even if Keppel Ron did not take the initiative to initiate a provocation, he will make arrangements in advance When a good reporter asks a question, he will always be the one who initiates the war.

It's just that Keppel Ron is one step ahead on Twitter now.

But that's good, at least he doesn't have to be the one who provokes others, and he can use Kepel Ron to make a fuss with peace of mind. If the other party wants to jump into the trap stupidly, he can't blame others.

Keppel Ron is a real backer!

"We fight! (from Captain America 3)"

"I will use my strength to prove who is the 'clown'!"

clap clap-

Li Chungang responded domineeringly in both Chinese and English. I have to say that the appetite of all the domestic media reporters present may be due to the consistent modesty of the Chinese people, so that this is the first time they have seen someone face provocations in the international arena. The response was so overbearing and arrogant.

"it is good!"

Someone even couldn't help shouting excitedly on the spot.
