There was a little treachery in the smile.

Zhou Meilan didn't care.

Chapter 143 141, Qi Guodong

Saturday morning, all right.

Exams are over, the school has a holiday, there is no trouble of early self-study and make-up classes, and it is rare to get a good night's sleep in the dormitory.

Only at seven or eight o'clock.

Li Xia's mobile phone hanging in the drawer suddenly rang.

The remaining three girls in the room didn't move. Huang Yuanyuan even buried her head in the quilt, trying to sleep off the annoying ringtone.

But the bell didn't mean to stop for a moment, it rang again and again, it was extremely noisy, and it didn't mean to stop at all.

In the end, it was too noisy, so Chen Mujie woke up Huang Yuanyuan on the other end, and signaled the girl to wake up the young lady who was still sleeping in the same bed.

"Huh?" The eldest lady shook her long hair that was messed up because of the tossing in the night, and Meng Li woke up dimly, only then did she realize the noise that filled the entire dormitory.

Immediately stretched himself, hurriedly dressed, and jumped out of bed.

The body is still trembling.

After all, there is no air conditioner in this old school building, and there is only a quilt that can keep the children warm in the cold dormitory.

"Who is it? It's really troublesome..." Li Xia couldn't help muttering and complaining while looking through the drawers, his mobile phone number has never been leaked out, and it should be difficult to find similar mobile phone scams or sales.Even in normal times, I have very few friends, and most of them are students. Boss Li is the type who likes to sleep in. It is impossible for him to call himself at such a time.

On the screen, however, a string of unfamiliar numbers showed that the caller was not an acquaintance like Boss Li or Huang Bian Chengzi.

Who on earth is it?

Startled, the eldest lady subconsciously clicked on the phone.

On the other end of the phone, a blue voice of a slightly indifferent young man suddenly drifted over. ,

"Hello, is this Lixia?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he reported the young lady's personal information.

There is a bit of contempt and impatience in the words, just like those big-name first-line stars treat their fans with the same attitude.

Very perfunctory, but also very proud.

Li Xia was dumbfounded.

I vaguely remember that in my previous life, when I went to Venus to submit articles and received my editor in charge, he was also such an arrogant man who looked down on me.

Realizing this, the eldest lady was stunned for a moment, her expression became a little serious, she walked lightly to the corridor, and then closed the door, before talking to the microphone: "It's me, may I ask who you are?"

They didn't seem to be too lazy to talk nonsense, they just cut to the chase and said, "From today onwards, I will be your editor in charge. My surname is Qi, and my name is Qi Guodong. I am the editor of this platform. Let's take care of each other."

The inside and outside of the words are a bit vague, Li Xia's head is at a loss.

"Platform? Which platform?"

Hearing such a question, the other party clicked his tongue lightly, looking a little impatient.

But still explained.

"Shui Mu Nian Hua."

Shuimunianhua is the publication name of Shuimu Forum Magazine, and the two unsigned novels were contributed by Lixia to the other party's platform.

Speaking of it, Chow Yun-fat's identity seems to be known only by Lu Xu within the platform, after all, this is something he specially ordered.

It's not that Li Xia wants to hide anything, it's just a very simple truth. Chow Yun-fat's pseudonym is too domineering. If the senior management knows something about it, they might hold him, show off in front of the media, or advertise .

At that time, it will be difficult to explain to myself or to juvenile literature.

As for the new book that was submitted to the other party, "Dawn and Twilight".

In fact, it is just a random nonsense of an unknown name, he is a pure newcomer, and no one in the platform knows his details.

Although two or three works have created certain waves, in the final analysis, it is just a short film, with no beginning and no end. Even if I barely wrote an ending, the few sloppy trends still did not leave much in the hearts of the audience. impression.

Going back and forth will also annoy the editor, and some will look down on the author who finished it in a hurry.

Isn't it just an unfinished author, what is there to pay attention to?

In the eyes of most editors, the most unwelcome group of people are those authors who do not update their recommendations on the Internet, or who cancel their updates in a hurry.Although this kind of people can't say anything on the surface, it's safe to be on the internal blacklist.

For example, Li Xia in the previous life, because of the unstable update, has not been very angry with the Venus star.

In addition, the results were not satisfactory. Although the contract was reluctantly signed later, the editor-in-chief seemed to have evaporated.I couldn't find anyone for half a year.

Don't talk about recommending it, just ask a question on Penguin, and the other party doesn't like to talk to me.

Very helpless.

But she never thought that in this life, the young lady who has achieved great success would still have the opportunity to experience this kind of differential treatment.

"Your work has passed the review. You should have the original manuscript, right? I'm here to inform you that it can be copied to the backstage."

The editor paused, and after explaining the matter, he said another digression.

"I also want to remind you that although you are Lu Xu's friend and you were introduced to our Shuimu platform through him, there are some things that must be clarified."

"what's up."

"For example, the recommendations and promotions on our site are based on real talents and knowledge, not your internal relationship on the platform. Then, the editing company will definitely value your work. If you want to obtain the right to adapt, you will not work hard or If the writing quality is not good, it is still impossible to get a chance."

It seems that when Lu Xu recommended his work, he also specifically mentioned the adaptation rights he wanted in the company, which made the editor Qi talk a little more.

It's just that maybe the identity of the editor-in-chief's eldest son really has little momentum, and Li Xia's deliberate concealment of his identity has caused the opposite effect.

"Also, judging from the manuscript I reviewed for you, your novel is indeed not qualified for publishing an adaptation in terms of quality."

Editor Qi spoke a little bluntly, but he didn't have the slightest sympathy, so he commented directly.

Li Xia smiled.

This attitude is really similar to the editor in charge of Venus in the previous life.

The same nostrils are turned to the sky, and the same look down on their own works, which is a qualitative sentence.

You can't do it at all, you are on the street.

After all, in the eyes of the other party, being anonymous is really not a deterrent, is it?

To be honest, this "Dawn and Twilight" can be regarded as my own originality. In terms of story plot, it is indeed not as good as "Dream".

After all, he is a veritable great writer.

But no matter how you say it, I have written books for so many years, and I have accumulated a lot of knowledge. No matter how bad the original is, it is at least a lot better than works on such small platforms.

This sentence is not qualified, it is a bit lame.

Not to mention anything else, didn't I also achieve good results with my half-replicated and half-original "In the Name of Flowers"?

Regardless of whether it caused a sensation in the Internet literary world, it did occupy the top three positions in the Shuimu Forum for a long time, and it caused a storm.

As for the issue of internal adaptation rights.

Only the top five works on the ranking list are eligible to apply.

Isn't it a bit inexplicable that the editors are beating him up now?

"Really? Okay, I get it, I will work hard to improve." My mind was full of chaos, but my mouth said it very quietly.

The eldest lady smiled, she didn't care at all, she was neither humble nor overbearing, she was not discouraged or annoyed by the blow at all, she just nodded lightly.

This calm attitude made Editor Qi a little surprised.

In my impression, children in this grade are mostly at a level that is full of bottles, and their nostrils are blown up when they have a small grade. If someone dares to come out and criticize them, they may have a big fight with dissatisfaction.

But this girl's ethereal voice doesn't seem to be agitated at all?

It's rather strange.

She wouldn't be so stupid that she didn't realize that she was hurting her, right?

"Then just copy your manuscript to the back end of the Internet. You should have the website of our Shuimu Forum, right? If not, check it online. I will approve your manuscript before noon tomorrow, and it can be published at that time." gone."

If it were the editor on Chengzi's side, he might have to rush to help make arrangements.

But this editor Qi didn't seem to have such a leisurely heart.I just explained a few words casually, and let the eldest lady handle it by herself.

As a physical book, Shuimu Nianhua operates a similar web platform on the Internet, which is the Shuimu Forum that used to be used for posting.

However, the nature of profit is completely different from ordinary APP.

Most of the works in the forum are also free, and will not be charged like ordinary online writing platforms.

As for the popular works in those physical books, generally speaking, they are not allowed to be published on the platform for free reading, but are directly published in physical books to attract people and improve performance.

Now that Li Xia's manuscripts are distributed on the free Internet terminal, it means that the platform has already tacitly accepted that her works have no commercial value, and this is only used as an addition to attract people on the Internet.

If you are a newcomer, this approach may make the other party more discouraged.

But the eldest lady realized it, she just nodded helplessly, and didn't say anything more.

"Okay, then I'll publish it."

Hastily hung up the phone, and the eldest lady turned back to the dormitory.

Still as quiet as ever.

Huang Yuanyuan snored so loudly that she couldn't sleep at the two tables next door, her eyes were slightly closed, but her eyebrows were already wrinkled into a Sichuan shape.

"It's the pig humming..."

Even in his dream, Zhang Chuyu was complaining lightly.

Li Xia was a little dumb.

She turned on the phone lightly, dug out the manuscript for Lu Xu, sorted it out a bit, and after there were no obvious language barriers, she logged in to the webpage and published the manuscript to the backstage.

Well, the internet speed inside the school is hard to describe in words. In addition, 10 years later, wifi hotspots have not been popularized yet. My old phone, which seems to be advanced but has been with me for two years, naturally does not have such trendy functions.

After nearly half an hour of fiddling, it seemed that Li Xia's "Dawn and Twilight" was not reviewed there, and he obviously started to worry, so he made two more phone calls.

"Hurry up and upload, and the number of words for the manuscript fee will be calculated immediately. If you don't want to get money this month, don't worry."

Even text messages sent out such alarmist talk.

Li Xia whistled lightly, pretending he didn't see it.

In all fairness, the Shuimu Forum is just a small platform, with a small number of people, and a slightly famous author can't stand up to any storms in the market.

And the manuscript fee inside, those ranking masters who break the sky every month, are only about two thousand.

It's really... barren and shabby.

Even if I came back from rebirth, no matter how poor I was, I wouldn't be able to mess myself up just because of this little money, right?

He simply dropped the work in his hand and went out to have a meal. It was almost eleven o'clock when he came back.

Only then did Li Xia slowly put up the manuscript that he had prepared a long time ago.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong, the eldest lady waved her hand and called the elder cousin.

"Hi boss."

The string of numbers on the caller ID made the eldest cousin put on a respectful face when he answered the phone.

"Don't say so many useless things, I only give you half an hour to drive here, and I'll find someone for you." Li Xia leaned on the phone receiver and said carelessly.

144 Chapter 142, come out to eat

In the center of Yecheng City, due to the leadership of Naxi Street and County Magistrate Lu, in recent years, it has vigorously introduced foreign investment and investment, which has made the originally poor and dilapidated county town better and better, and there is a vague tendency to connect with international metropolises.

Whether it is advanced level, transportation, or other aspects such as food, clothing, housing, transportation, etc., it has completely surpassed Sanhuai and Longhao next door.

Speaking of which, as a brother in distress, Long Hao, who was considered superior at first, was completely lonely all of a sudden. From the original three brothers in Xizhe to the second place, he became a veritable crane tail.

Although Yecheng, which has been developed right now, is still far behind the developed city of Shangjun next week in terms of urban planning.

However, it has come step by step in the past two years, which is naturally seen by many entrepreneurs.

It is also because of this reason that some merchants with a vision for development have launched their own operations in the center of Yecheng City, leading to the most crowded intersection area, where various merchants are dazzled and dizzying.

Of course, there is no small reason why Boss Li's West Street interfered with it.
