Revive it!Wenhao Press
Chapter 4 004
On the other end of the phone, Gongqianjian didn't speak immediately.He took off his glasses and rubbed his sore eyes.
Ken Gongqian is a pragmatic person. Although he has seen high school student creators, he even has a high school student manga artist under him.But even though he knows that many high school students can become excellent creators, he doesn't think that a layman of high school age can run a publishing house well.
What was said on the phone was not a lie.Gongqianjian was also a reader of magazines issued by Hoshinosha in the past. He didn't want to see Hoshinosha, which was once a brilliant star, disappear, so he called.
But even so, the firm tone of the girl on the other end of the phone reached his ears bit by bit.He could tell that Hualichun would never change his mind for a while.
"I understand." Gongqian Jian changed his words, "If you need help in the future, you can contact me. My email address is..."
Hualichun quickly entered Gongqianjian's contact information on the phone, thanked him, and ended the call.
She looked at the email address on her phone and felt a little emotional.
This is the first industry senior she knows.
Just then, a new email notification popped up on the phone.
It was Tomioka Yoshiyuki's reply email, asking Hualichun to find him in the teacher's office during the lunch break of school tomorrow to discuss scholarship issues.
Seeing Yoshiyuki Tomioka's reply, Jun Huali breathed a sigh of relief.
——If you apply for more scholarships and extend your part-time working hours, you may be able to support the publishing house until you find a signed writer.
Just like Gongqianjian's reminder, without contracted writers, it is impossible to run a publishing house.The current top priority is to find writers who are willing to sign with Hoshinosha.
In the golden age of the past, Hoshinosha naturally had no shortage of writers to sign contracts.However, no one cares about Hoshinosha today. Although it has a glorious history in the past, it is now and then.
If the current Hoshinosha wants to find contracted writers, I am afraid that they can only try their luck among groups such as unknown newcomers, sentimental parties who have read Hoshinosha's publications in the past, and part-time game creators.
It cannot be ruled out that there will be future masters among these people, but relatively speaking, the probability is too low, and it is too difficult to select excellent writers from them.For Huali Jun, who has to revive Hoshinosha within two years, this is not the choice she wants.
If the goal is to be number one in the industry, then since we are looking for it, we must find the best writer.
But how can she make the best writers willing to come to Hoshinosha when she has nothing at present?
Hualichun sits on the office chair and thinks quietly, her eyebrows knit together.And from the time she sent emails and made phone calls, Dazai Inu, who was brought home by her, sat quietly beside her, staring intently at her with iris-colored eyes.
Hualichun didn't notice Dazai Inu.She thought for a while, then her eyes fell on her schoolbag again.
"Revival!She hasn't figured out the mechanism of the game "Wen Hao Publishing House", and she has only drawn a card once so far.There is no way to start with the current situation, so I simply open the game again to see if I can find any breakthrough.
Thinking of this, Hualichun took out the handheld from her schoolbag and restarted the game.
Finally I have time to study "Let's Revive!"Wen Hao Publishing House" game.This time, Hualichun looked at all the functions in the game that he could understand.
The main line of the game is to revive Hoshinosha.This coincides with her purpose.This game simply exists for her next plan.But in the game, the revival of Hoshinosha was refined into a clearer goal.
To return to the top and once again become the number one publishing house in the industry, Hualichun must achieve the following four results within two years:
1. Won the highest award of the Classical Art and Literature Award
2. Won the highest prize of the New Arts and Literature Award
3. Magazine's annual sales volume No. [-]
4. The annual sales volume of published books is the first
Among them, the third and fourth objectives must be achieved at the same time.That is to say, if the magazine and the published book have won the first place in total sales respectively, but the time of ranking the first does not coincide, it will not be recognized.
Hualichun realized that the first two achievements represent the recognition of the quality of the work, and the latter two achievements represent the recognition of the commerciality of the work.To put it bluntly, it is necessary to create a masterpiece that is popular and popular.But the more literary the work, the higher the threshold for readers, and the more difficult it is to be well received and popular.
In addition to the main task of reviving Hoshinosha, there is also a library of redeemable items in the game.All items in the inventory are exchanged for money.
But at present, a large number of items in the item library are locked, and the only items that can be exchanged are ordinary items such as office supplies and daily necessities, and her current deposit is far from enough to exchange them. After deciding to take over Hoshinosha, even the next Quarterly tuition fees have become a problem.
Hualichun remembered that when she opened the game in the afternoon, there were three card-drawing opportunities in total, but she only drew one hint card and had two more card-drawing opportunities.
She found the card drawing function and clicked on it again. Seeing the reminder of the remaining two chances, she casually clicked on the card drawing option.
A card fell from the sky.Looking at this scene, Hualichun couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva.
...Shouldn't she be asked to fish for some weird things again?
But soon, the cards on the screen slowly landed, but they were not the previous reminder cards.
[Congratulations, you have drawn an item card]
The card was flipped open, and what was displayed on the back was a cute can shape with simple pixels.There is also a picture of a red crab on the can.
【Get Canned Crab Meat × 1】
"Can you still get this kind of thing?" Hualichun moved away the handheld in front of her in a daze, and saw a can of crab meat suddenly appearing on the desk in front of her.
She froze for a moment, and smoked one last time.But this time it was still an item card, and the thing drawn was a bandage.
After putting down the handset that had run out of lottery draws for the day, Hualichun looked at the cans and bandages on the table, feeling a little speechless.
But it also reminded her that it was time for dinner.
Hualichun has been living a poor life.Now, with the freshly baked bread sent by Kamado Tanjiro, and the canned crab meat (it looks like it should be edible), she feels that this meal is already quite satisfactory.
She had never eaten crabmeat before.
But before eating, Hualichun still opened the bag of dog food and put it in front of Dazai Dog, then sat down by himself, took out a piece of bread from the bag, and opened the can of crab meat with a "snap".
As soon as the can was opened, Hualichun couldn't help but startled, and subconsciously sniffed it.
There was a fresh and fragrant smell coming out of the can, and the snow-white crab leg meat inside the can was neatly stacked, looking full of weight.
And at this moment, the Dazai dog on the side looked at the bag of dog food with disgust, then raised his dog's leg, and kicked the dog food over with a nonchalant kick.
There was a crackling sound, and grains of dog food spilled all over the floor.Hualichun was taken aback, and watched the dog with its head held high, walking in front of her majestically and gracefully.
Then, as soon as Dazai Inu lowered his head, his mouth was buried in the canned crab meat.
blah blah blah...
"..." Hualichun was stunned.
This dog's heart is dead, but his mouth is not dead.He can still eat crabs in his mouth, which is very scary!
But watching Dazai dog eat crabs like no one else, Hualichun came back to his senses and sighed.
How can you compare with a dog!Gougou is just hungry, so he has no bad thoughts.
She secretly raised her hand to stroke the Dazai dog's hair, but found something sticky in the dog's hair.
——It was the sand on the river bank, occasionally mixed with pieces of dried aquatic plants.
Because of the diving, Dazai Inu's hair became a bit dirty, and the bandages wrapped around the dog had to be replaced because they were soaked in water.
Hualichun squatted beside Dazai Dog, waiting patiently for him to eat the last piece of crab meat.Then she picked up Dazai Dog and lifted him up like an elder baboon lifting Simba.
Dazai Inu's body was suspended in the air suddenly, and a trace of astonishment flashed in the dog's eyes.
Hualichun moved the dog Dazai into the small bathroom next to it.Fortunately, this bathroom also has a shower head, which can solve the washing problem.But the first person to try the shower head was not Hua Lichun, but Reservoir Dog.
Hualichun began to adjust the water temperature of the nozzle.Even though Dazai Inu was put aside, he seemed to have accepted his fate of having to take a bath next time. Instead of panicking, he seemed calm.
Hualichun couldn't help but look back at the dog sitting beside him, thinking that the dog seemed to have become a spirit.
Soon, the water temperature has been adjusted.Hualichun put the nozzle aside, looked at the dirty bandages on Dazai Dog, and took out the scissors.
"Take off the bandage first."
The scissors avoided the sand-colored hair, and cut along the edge of the dirty bandage.After he piled all the shredded bandages aside, Hualichun saw the strange large and small wounds on Dazai Dog hidden under the bandages and thick fine hair.
Did he have so many injuries when he was a very beautiful dog when his hair was dry?
Dazaigou didn't seem to care much, but Hualichun looked at Dazaigou, feeling very uncomfortable.
A wild dog like this must have had a hard time wandering outside in the wind and rain.
Although this dog is a bit abnormal, looking at him, Hualichun felt as if he saw himself alone.
Like a stray dog, she is also a marginalized person in this society.For more than ten years, she has always longed for warm food and a stable roof.
She is this dog, this dog is her, and the wound on this dog is her Hualichun's wound! (Nalanga tone)
Although she still doesn't understand why the game prompts her to retrieve the dog, Hualichun asks herself, if she just met a dog in the water by chance, she should also save the dog.
Because saving the dog was like saving herself.
Hualichun picked up the shower head, poured warm water on the dog's body, wet the thick layer of hair, squeezed out the shower gel and scrubbed him.
Gouzi sat on the spot obediently, letting Hualichun wash his body, he was too obedient.
"No matter what, we will support each other in the future and work hard to survive. Don't do things like diving." She whispered to herself, remembering the dog's name, and added, "Please teach me more , Dazai."
"However, if Fuxing Publishing House's plan fails, we might all be living on the streets in the future." Hua Lichun then muttered involuntarily.
The first step in revitalizing Hoshinosha is to issue the first issue of the magazine.
With "Renaissance!With the help of Wenhao Publishing House, the content of the published magazine has also been simplified a lot.No editing, no printing house, no warehouse, just use the game to make magazines.
But in order to produce an issue of "Monthly Literature", there is one condition that is indispensable, that is, there must be at least one featured article.
The rest of the corner content and typesetting in the magazine can be automatically filled by the game, but the content and the most important published articles must be produced by themselves.
If you don't solve the problem of the article, you can't even take the first step.
—— Hualichun's thoughts were interrupted at this moment.
That was because the wet Dazai Inu instinctively shook his head, and quickly shook the water and bubbles on his fur, splashing Hualichun all over his face.
"..." Hualichun couldn't help showing a cracked expression.
***
midnight.
Hualichun, who was sleeping, felt a little thirsty, so she sat up in a daze, rubbed her eyes, and wanted to get water to drink.
There was a rhythmic and fast knocking sound in my ears.There seems to be a little bit of light coming through.
Hualichun's entire face was wrinkled together by the glare of light in the darkness.She unconsciously looked towards the direction of the light, then her sleepy eyes gradually widened, and finally widened.
The computer on the desk was turned on at some unknown time, and writing software was displayed on the screen.And the dog she picked up walked onto the office chair at some point, tapping on the computer keyboard with a pair of paws as if fascinated.
Hualichun rubbed her eyes, suspecting that she was dreaming.However, the handheld next to the pillow suddenly played cheerful reminder music.
