Xueba Fengyun

Chapter 149

The two most criticized things about Gu Chongguang are: one is too money-worshipping, and the other is too hypocritical.In particular, Gu Chongguang's comment that only the inner ring of Dongfang City in China is considered a civilized society sent Gu Chongguang to the peak of media criticism back then, but Gu Chongguang still lived in his own way, anyway, his manuscript fee was enough to make him almost He has squandered his life, so he doesn't pay attention to others' evaluation of him.Gu Chongguang's way of living in a self-fantasy world is a very cool way of life for his fans. These fans who don't have much money are trying to save money to buy a certain luxury item that Gu Chongguang mentioned. .Liu Miao sometimes thinks that for those luxury goods, it is better to find Gu Chongguang than to find those actresses and movie kings for commercials.Except that Gu Chongguang's height is not enough for an idol, other aspects are simply more popular than any popular idol.

Liu Miao decided to let go of the fact that his elder brother didn't believe that he had an interview with Gu Chongguang.But Gu Chongguang really made a mistake, and I am afraid that he will be attacked by Gu Chongguang everywhere in the future.This news made Liu Miao a little disappointed, but the next day, Liu Miao got good news from Zhang Meiqing.

Zhang Meiqing came to Liu Miao with a contract that was all in English, "Nelson Soanes Publishing House in the UK saw your book "The Detective Sherlock Holmes" at the agency in China, and they were very impressed with your fictional British detective stories. Interested, I hope to win the agency rights of this book in Europe and the United States. The fee they offer is a ten-year agency contract and a buyout of 300 million pounds. According to the current exchange rate, you will be able to get nearly 2000 million in income .”

Although China in this life has not been reduced to the colonization of European and American cultures, Chinese culture has not flourished to dominate the world.The cultural blocks of the whole world are basically divided into: the Chinese cultural circle based on Chinese, including the entire East Asia, Southeast Asia and the west coast of the Pacific; the European and American cultural circle based on English, including Northern Europe, Western Europe and North America; Benchmark the Latinosphere of Southern Europe, the Balkans, and Latin America and the Caribbean.In addition to these three major cultural circles, there is also the Slavic cultural circle formed by Russia and Eastern Europe; the Green Church cultural circle formed by the Middle East and North Africa; and the Black African cultural circle formed in Southern Africa.Of course, to a certain extent, the Slavic cultural circle, the Latin cultural circle, and the European and American cultural circles are the same, because English is basically common in these three regions.

Therefore, Chinese has become the language with the largest number of users, while English has retained the most widely used language in the world.Therefore, for Chinese authors, when mainstream publishing houses in Europe and the United States are willing to publish English translations of their works, it is as worth celebrating as winning the Yanhuang Literature Award.In particular, Nelson Soanes Publishing House is still the top three publishing house in the UK. It is the dream of almost all contemporary authors to cooperate with such a publishing house.

Liu Miao has no doubt that there is a British publishing house to cooperate with him. Liu Miao knows better than anyone else what kind of work "The Cases of Sherlock Holmes" is.To put it bluntly, a fictional character like Sherlock Holmes has almost become a British national treasure.When Conan Doyle wrote Sherlock Holmes to death, the whole of Britain, including Doyle's mother, opposed it.It was under such great pressure that Conan Doyle had to arrange for Holmes to be resurrected.However, Nelson Soanes actually wanted to buy out such a potential book for 300 million pounds, so he underestimated himself too much.

Liu Miao said to Zhang Meiqing: "I don't accept buyouts, I only accept royalties, and I only give them the right to represent other English-speaking countries. If they want to represent other English-speaking countries, they must pay enough signing fees and at the same time give me a A complete marketing plan."

After listening to Liu Miao's statement, Zhang Meiqing couldn't help laughing bitterly.Zhang Meiqing bought the shares of Huadu Culture to a large extent for the publication of her novels, but later she also became interested in book publishing, so she also spent a lot of energy on it.Every cultural circle has its barriers. For example, Chinese novels in Japan and South Korea can be signed and published with royalties, because there are still many Japanese and Koreans who can understand Chinese culture.But without the East Asian and Southeast Asian markets, Europeans and Americans may not be able to appreciate the beauty of Chinese culture.Therefore, for local publishing houses, buyout is undoubtedly the safest way to distribute.Because if the publisher buys out the book, as long as one of the [-] books bought out by the publishing house can win the favor of the European and American markets, then all the agency costs will be earned back.

Similarly, Huaxia Publishing House is also a buyout agent for European and American novels.Unless European and American novels have received the blessing of the Nobel Prize, or Chinese novels have received the blessing of the Yanhuang Literature Award, then such an author may sign a royalty agency contract with a publishing company in another cultural circle.But since Liu Miao had agreed to such a condition, Zhang Meiqing had nothing to persuade her.After all, both of them are the bosses of the Youth Club, and Liu Miao is not just a signed author of the Youth Club.

"Yes, Sogo Studio will release our first magazine "Pure Fiction" on the beautiful day of June [-]st."

On the TV, Gu Chongguang spoke vigorously to many reporters in the audience.At the same time, he showed everyone the magazine logo and the cover of the first issue of "Pure Fiction", ""Pure Fiction" will become the best and most popular youth literature magazine in China and even the entire Chinese-speaking circle. As for Mr. Gong's "Singer" and Ms. Quan "Concrete Forest", I don't think there is any direct conflict between us. After all, there are many literary and literary magazines suitable for teenagers, and it is also helpful to cultivate the sentiments of teenagers."

Only now did Liu Miao know why Zhang Meiqing said that Gu Chongguang had the highest EQ among contemporary authors.Compared with Gong Yuxiang's arrogance and Quan Xuenai's noble and glamorous, Gu Chongguang is almost an ordinary person living in the mundane world.In particular, his flattery of the relevant departments has allowed him to run amok in the publishing industry, and every time he makes a cross-border attack, he can scratch the itch of some leaders, which is definitely not something ordinary people can do.

"Along with the release of the first issue of "Pure Fiction", our Sogo Publishing House will also launch the 'New Wave Literary Creation Contest'. All young people under the age of 30 can submit articles to us, and we will announce the top 64 in the first issue. The list and the outstanding works in it. In the future, we will eliminate half of the authors every month until the final winner. The winner will receive a prize of 100 million yuan and a publishing contract for a novel. At the same time, all the top eight authors will He will become a contracted author of our Sogo studio and enjoy a remuneration of thousands of words and thousands of yuan."

The news that Gu Chongguang released at the end attracted the attention of countless reporters.You know, there is only one Shuguang Cup in China's creative competition for young people, and now there is a new wave.Moreover, both Gu Chongguang and Gong Yuxiang were the first prize winners of the first Shuguang Cup, but later Gong Yuxiang maintained a good relationship with the Shuguang Cup organizing committee, but Gu Chongguang fell out with the Shuguang Cup.Now that Gu Chongguang has created a new wave, it is completely to grab the limelight of the Shuguang Cup.Especially after the Dawn Cup has been held for so many years, the universities that originally granted exceptional admissions all said that they can give priority to admission, but the New Wave has offered a real reward of one million yuan.Therefore, many reporters have speculated whether the Shuguang Cup will come to an end in a few years and be replaced by the New Wave.

After watching the interview with Gu Chongguang, Liu Miao said to Zhang Meiqing rather desolately: "The New Wave competition is enough for him to become the leader of youth literature in China within five years. At that time, let alone the Youth Club, Lian Gong Yuxiang Even Izumi Xuenai is not enough to carry his shoes. And once "Pure Fiction" is successful, he will launch three magazines, plus his series of books. I have to say, he will be our worst enemy .However, if there is no qualified opponent in this world, wouldn't it be lonely?"

Not to mention that Liu Miao felt a headache from the sudden appearance of Gu Chongguang, but the Ice and Fire Animation Festival that he and Tan Yaohua tossed up was reported on the provincial TV station in a grand manner.Originally, it was a surprise that such a school activity could be reported by the city TV station, but now it is favored by the provincial TV station, which makes people feel strange.However, when I thought about the influence of the Tan family in Jiangnan Province and the love affair between Liu Miao's mother and Jiangnan TV Station, I felt that it was a matter of course.

But for Tanzhou No. [-] Middle School, this is an extremely opportunity to show up.It is true that Tanzhou No. [-] Middle School is the oldest and most famous high school in Jiangnan Province, but the so-called four major high schools in the province put Baoqing No. [-] Middle School and three middle schools together, not to mention that there are other high schools in some places. The achievements in the field are also beyond the reach of Tanzhou No. [-] Middle School.Therefore, Tanzhou No. [-] Middle School also needs people to promote it, and it cannot be done by itself.Regarding Jiangnan TV's report, all the leaders in the school smiled for a while.Reminiscent of the Jinghu Literature and Art Club, which cannot be supported by the wall, the title of the top ten clubs finally fell to the Binghuo Comic Club.

As the biggest hero of Binghuo Comic Club, Liu Miao, the vice president, is naturally considered a strong candidate for the next president; Tan Yaohua should take over the position of vice president without accident.In this regard, the Ice Fire Comic Club is still clear about it.It is precisely because of the sensible people in the Binghuo Comics Club that Liu Miao felt that it might be a good choice to stay in the Binghuo Comics Club.

Just when Liu Miao settled down at Binghuo Comic Club, Wang Jingwen, a Chinese teacher who looks like the queen of the future, suddenly said in class, "I think everyone knows that the annual Hope Cup National Student Composition Contest will start soon." Therefore, Mr. Wang hopes that everyone can prepare their own composition manuscripts during this period of time, and then submit them to the competition when the competition starts. Everyone knows that such a competition, even if it is only the third prize in the province, is also beneficial to your future university. Admission will help. Although the Shuguang Cup in the early years claimed to have a gimmick of breaking the rules of the top ten famous schools, but as the Shuguang Cup competition became more and more rigid, the original breaking rules became the priority when admitting, so basically It becomes tasteless. Therefore, Mr. Wang still hopes that the award will focus on this kind of competition with national qualifications, instead of participating in some competitions such as the Shuguang Cup or the New Wave Essay Competition. Also, if everyone appreciates Mr. Wang If you are more confident in your ability, you can ask me to comment before submitting."

Teacher Wang's words suddenly hit Liu Miao's mind, because Liu Yan has been encouraging Liu Miao to get a good ranking in the Hope Cup composition competition.Although the Hope Cup Composition Competition gave people the impression of being rigid and old-fashioned, it was considered a national composition competition, so there were definitely a lot of people participating.
