Chapter 30 A Lot of Money(1/2)
When Zhang Ruolin sent her new book "Home" to Sister Duan again, Sister Duan took a look and was surprised to find that the whole book seemed to have become thicker again, compared to the previous one.
She opened the file with some expectations and started browsing the new book curiously. She had just started working not long after she lowered her head. When she raised her head again, it was already seven o'clock in the evening.
Duan Qinglian was so hungry that she was in a very happy mood. She was very sure that Zhang Ruolin's book would be sold out.
Those who open a publishing house most hope to have countless excellent publications, which is a source of wealth, and those who print are not books, but money.
When I turned to the end of the book, there was a column of thanks. Professor Zhou Haifeng was among them. There was also a man named Li Cai. It is said that he helped Zhang Ruolin collect detailed information.
Of course, Duan Qinglian also had a share, and raised the shortcomings of the book at the beginning.
Duan Qinglian thinks that Zhang Ruolin is very good at leaving her name on such a good book.
At least, when she writes a book, few people in China can refuse as long as she speaks.
The date for publishing this book was finalized.
Zhang Ruolin’s new book does not require much publicity. She has a well-known reputation and has many book fans throughout China. As long as she releases news that she has new works, the owners of major bookstores in China will rush to order goods, for fear of buying less.
Zhang Ruolin sold 300,000 books for the first book, and 600,000 books for the second book, and now it is the third book.
The theme of this book is not very popular among young people today, and the sales should be much smaller, but it is enough for the publishing house to make money.
Those four martial arts novels have made the publishing house profitable.
In Duan Qinglian's view, Zhang Ruolin is just a hen who can lay golden eggs.
No, it was a diamond egg.
For her, writing a book is as easy as drinking water.
However, this is a matter of talent, and Duan Qinlian feels a little envious at most.
They are all in their forties.
Zhang Ruolin has been busy with the exam these days, so what are she busy with?
Of course it is her new book problem.
As a woman with menstruation and a woman with the ability to have children, as all ordinary people think, she can cry, make unreasonable fuss, and read romance novels.
Her new book is a romance novel.
Xu Fengjiao urged her to write about this for a long time, but she had never been in the mood to write about it. After learning that Qin Bing's matter had been resolved, she began to prepare.
The name of the new book is "First Intimate Contact". Fortunately, this book already has a title. If it is written in Zhang Ruolin's style, the title will definitely be unbearable - "Online Love".
The reason for writing this book is, first, the original author wrote very well, and the book is very popular among netizens. It can be called a classic. Another reason is that you can promote tt by the way.
Or, the last reason is the most important.
If you have too many classic love novels, you just don’t adapt to this society.
Anyway, "First Intimate Contact" involves online dating, which is very trendy, isn't it?
After this book became popular, I believe that TT's users will increase a lot, and they are looking for their own gangster Cai or Qingwu Feiyang online.
The tragic love story of the pirate Cai and Qingwu Feiyang is actually very old-fashioned. From acquaintance to love, to separation and death, it is exactly the same as the love story of Aunt Qiong Yao... However, because it is used to use nn, it became popular.
But when you come to this world, you don’t need nn, you have to use tt.
If Lao Ma also traveled through time, Zhang Ruolin would probably not even have the qualifications to drink soup. She would wrap her breasts, cut her hair, and sing "The Female Prince Consort", which would be her only way out.
Two chapters were uploaded, and the originally deserted book review area suddenly became lively. I guess there were many people squatting on the spot.
Zhang Ruolin followed the old rules and uploaded them and left.
The book review area has the care of the deputy moderator.
Don’t think that after Zhang Ruolin closed the page, she went back to watch some soap operas, etc., she was still studying very seriously.
There are many classics circulating in China today. Zhang Ruolin goes to the library to bring a few books back when she has nothing to do. She is one of the people who borrow books from Donghai University most frequently. Every time she goes to the library, the administrator there will greet her.
In the middle of the night, Zhang Ruolin became a little tired.
As soon as I got into the quilt, I lay for a while, and was about to fall asleep in a daze, but the phone rang.
"Who is it?" Zhang Ruolin shouted loudly.
He has heavy eyelids and wants to sleep.
What phone call is made in the middle of the night? Do you say no during the day?
"Is it Miss Zhang Ruolin?"
Miss?
Zhang Ruolin is in a bad mood and really wants to scold her: Your whole family is a lady.
However, the voice from the phone said that the other party was a woman and was not very old.
OK, Zhang Ruolin expresses forgiveness to her.
But is it because I am so lonely when I call her in the middle of the night?
Will you consult her about how to solve the problem of "lost, emptiness, and cold"?
"It's me"
"Do you have time now?"
"Let's say a long story short, I'm going to sleep," Zhang Ruolin continued lying on the bed, "Of course, if you talk about things that can arouse my interest, it's a different matter."
Zhang Ruolin felt that the woman's voice was very familiar, but she just couldn't remember it.
"I'm sorry, I forgot that it's late at night now"
jet lag?
"Are you Catherine?" Zhang Ruolin blurted out.
"I didn't expect you to remember me, Master Zhang"
It can be heard that Catherine is in a very happy mood. Being able to remember Zhang Ruolin proves that she is still charming.
"That's of course, who made you the most beautiful American I've ever met?"
Of course, Zhang Ruolin will not forget Katherine, this blonde beauty who has eaten her tofu.
I touched the back of Zhang Ruolin's hand last year, but now I still feel itchy when I think about it.
"Thank you for your praise. Since it's already midnight, I'll just say a long story short. Your book sells well in Europe and America. Our company plans to send you money recently."
“How many copies have you sold?”
"One Thousand Three Hundred and 800,000 volumes"
"Are you sure" Zhang Ruolin feels that the world is a little crazy.
Although the fairy tales she wrote were written by Western writers, it is natural that they are welcomed, but they should not be so outrageous.
"Ruolin's Fairy Tale" sold only 300,000 copies in the country.
"Why, are you very happy to hear this news?"
"I kind of doubt I'm dreaming"
Zhang Ruolin said in the novel.
"Yes, do you know what the company's senior executives react after getting this sales? What did those media say?"
"They doubted whether the data was counted wrong. After they counted it, the whole of the United States and Europe caused a sensation."
"Is that amazing?"
"You can't imagine it," Katherine said in a somewhat admirable tone, "You have already made the front page of the US Daily, and even the news of the arrest of the eldest son of the leader of the Middle East Al Qaeda is below."
Zhang Ruolin didn't know what to say.
"Then how much money did I earn?"
"You even said money?" Catherine said with some depression. "Don't you care about how famous you are?"
"Be famous?" Zhang Ruolin said angrily, "Can that thing be eaten?"
Catherine, who was far away in the United States, leaned against the office chair, turned around and sighed in her heart: Is this the difference between Eastern culture and Western culture?
She had to admit that there was a cultural gap between her and Zhang Ruolin.
As a Chinese, he actually has more money than an American.
Fortunately, the media didn't know about the conversation between the two, otherwise she would have said she was embarrassed and left abroad.
"Okay, you've made about 130 million yuan"
"It's not wrong, isn't it a bit too much?"
"That's right, this is a company's repeated statistics, or after taxes. It's not wrong. Do you think it's too much?" Catherine asked with a smile, "If you think it's too much, I can help you."
"No, I'll do it myself."
If you don’t take money, that’s a fool.
Although the money is a bit too much, if Zhang Ruolin really wants to spend money, it is not enough.
To be continued...
