The reason why Teacher Ke suddenly changed his mind and refused to sign it on Li Ye's "Land" was because last night, Wen Leyu gave her a manuscript of a new novel.

When Wen Leyu wanted to learn to write novels with Li Ye, Li Ye chose the "co-creation" model for real-time teaching, and asked Wen Leyu to provide the story background and character materials of the new novel.

Of course, the material was provided by Teacher Ke, and on the day after the material was provided, Teacher Ke wrote it himself.

She wants to try her own abilities and whether she can write a novel like "The Hidden".

Teacher Ke also has her own pride and is not a layman in literary writing. She believes that with Li Ye's "Louching" as a reference, she can write some tricks no matter how hard she does.

Teacher Ke’s writing is quite smooth. After all, he was a college student in the 1960s and had published literary works. He was absolutely fine in his writing skills.

Moreover, among the materials she prepared, many of the stories about the prototypes of the characters were told by the elderly at home. Now they are narrated in words, and they are just interpreted.

Teacher Ke wrote more and more smoothly, and soon wrote a good start.

After reading it carefully several times, she was a little confident and proud, and planned to let Li Ye see it in a few days and "learn each other".

Let’s create together! Of course, we must work together.

But unfortunately, before Teacher Ke had time to give the manuscript to Li Ye, Wen Leyu brought Li Ye's manuscript.

After reading it, Teacher Ke sat down for another night just like when he saw the manuscript of "Luxing".

People will die, and goods will be thrown away.

The same character materials, the same story background, and the works written are completely different.

If you have to make a comparison, Teacher Ke’s story is like a pot of salted water stewed, which lacks flavor and can barely relieve hunger.

However, the story written by Li Ye is a stir-fried meal with meat and vegetables, with a combination of color, fragrance, flavor and nutrition.

The various ingredients and cooking techniques that are lacking are all private goods added by Li Ye himself.

Teacher Ke’s story is actually a “accounting novel” with beautiful words and dull plots, while Li Ye’s story is a literary novel with a full plot.

When it was getting brighter outside the window, Teacher Ke smiled mockingly.

She finally understood how imprudent and self-esteem was when she asked for a cooperative signature.

Li Ye doesn't need her help at all, and her help will only cause trouble.

Although Teacher Ke really had no choice at that time, and even if it was a straw, was this really a tenable reason?

And looking at the manuscript in hand, Teacher Ke could feel that Li Ye was really helping her.

This novel, temporarily called "The Fighting War", is a "high-end customized article" that meets Teacher Ke's wishes everywhere.

Although it is just the beginning, those soldiers who shed their blood for the sake of light were described by Li Ye in a variety of techniques, which made people leave a deep impression on him at a glance.

And this is very important.

When the book is written, Teacher Ke will show it to some people. As long as they have an impression, their forgotten husband will definitely be recalled again.

It can be said that Teacher Ke never explained to Li Ye what she needed, but Li Ye accurately gave her what she wanted most.

Treating others with sincerity is mutual.

Teacher Ke immediately made a decision and wanted to apologize to Li Ye.

She showed Dong Yuejin her previous works and then admitted that her shortcomings were a disguised improvement of Li Ye's literary level.

After all, Li Ye is still too young and is easily despised.

In front of Li Ye’s parents, Teacher Ke did not feel embarrassed, or even felt that it was just right.

Teacher Ke is watching his daughter’s changes. What may not happen to Li Ye in the future, but you must not let your parents talk!

.

"I wish you two a cup, congratulations to you for raising a good son and a good grandson."

Teacher Ke picked up the wine glass and formally toasted Li Zhongfa and Li Kaijian.

"Where is there, the child is still young, we want to ask Teacher Ke to teach you more!"

Li Zhongfa and Li Kaijian were also people on the scene. They were not restrained at the moment, and they were drinking and chatting, and the atmosphere in the private room was very harmonious and warm.

Moreover, because of Teacher Ke's intervention, everyone finally made up for some questions and explained them automatically.

Li Ye is still young, and writing spy war articles like "Luxing" is somewhat convincing.

But now Teacher Ke is standing by the side, but by chance, he has made up for this flaw. Everyone is serious. Teacher Ke told many stories and laid the foundation for Li Ye.

After a while, Li Ye looked at Dong Yuejin's face gradually blushing and sweating, and knew that his alcohol tolerance was average. If he was drunk, he would not be able to talk about it.

When talking at the dinner table, it is better to be between "slightly drunk" and "drunk", because when you are drunk, you don't want to talk, and don't say it when you are sober.

So Li Ye found an opportunity and interjected and asked: "Editor Dong, have you ever told you about royalties when you come this time?"

Editor Dong was prepared and said with confidence: "Of course, I said that the quality of your novel is still good. I helped you get a 5 yuan royalty for a thousand words. This is already very high among new authors."

“5 yuan?”

Li Ye was obviously a little disappointed. The national regulations were 3-10 yuan for a thousand words. A newcomer could get 5 yuan for a thousand words for the first time writing a book, which seemed to be not low.

But books like "The Hidden" only cost 5 yuan for a thousand words, which is really not high.

Li Ye pondered for a few seconds and asked again: "Editor Dong, how much is the royalty set? What is the percentage?"

"Royalty?" Dong Yuejin was stunned and asked Li Ye: "What royalty?"

Li Ye was also stunned by the question. He thought for a while and said, "It's just printing the royalties. Didn't Guo Jia restore the royalties in 1980?"

Dong Yuejin looked embarrassed and said, "I really don't know this."

Li Ye frowned. He didn't know whether Dong Yuejin was really unclear or was pretending to be stupid to him.

Because when he wrote online articles in his previous life, he envied the high royalties of those great gods, and he accidentally read the content of the royalties for planting flowers.

Royalties were introduced into this land in the 1920s. Hu Shi and others lived very well in the imperial capital where "living in the capital is not easy" by relying on royalties.

In 1980, Guo Jia restored the royalties that had been interrupted for a long time and formulated a royalty ratio of "5% basic royalties for 10,000 copies". Later, it increased repeatedly, and even Han X received a 20% royalty.

But what Li Ye didn't know was that Guo Jia's regulations were regulations, but the real implementation of this policy that was beneficial to the author was after "Shuo Ye" emerged.

But Li Ye didn't know this now, and he thought he remembered it wrong.

So Li Ye asked tentatively: "Then Editor Dong, the manuscript fee standard set in 80 years is 3-10 yuan per thousand words for original works, and 2-7 yuan per thousand words for translation manuscript fee?"

Dong Yuejin was also embarrassed and nodded and said, "Yes, this is right, but I will verify the copy of the printing and the company."

That's right. For a moment, Li Ye felt a little uncomfortable and the smile on his face became obviously cold.

In fact, Dong Yuejin was also in a difficult situation. Although "The Hidden" is indeed a rare and good work, it cannot level the status gap between the publisher and the author before seeing the results.

When dealing with newcomer authors like Li Ye, Dong Yuejin is already a very kind and very tolerant editor.

In this era, there are many people like Feng Bo from Dahe Publishing House.

When Li Zhongfa and Li Kaijian heard this, they felt uncomfortable. It turned out that the maximum was 10 yuan and the minimum was 3 yuan. You only gave my grandson 5 yuan, and they cut the subsequent income?

Li Zhongfa immediately laughed and raised his glass to persuade him to drink: "Come on, Editor Dong, let's have a drink. Children like to be serious. Don't take it to heart. We are not greedy for that little money to write books, right?"

Li Kaijian, who was a retired scout, had quietly taken back Li Ye's novel manuscripts and put them in his bag with the effort of drinking.

[I want to buy my son’s baby for more than 1,000 yuan? Is it a lot of money?]

Hao Jian’s macan business is surprisingly prosperous. Two days ago, Jin Peng came to report it and estimated that the profit share of this batch of recent batches may be as high as 3,000 yuan.

Therefore, the Li family attaches different importance to money than before.

Dong Yuejin was drunk by the two masters of the Li family. He took the bag in a daze and wanted to find out the contract and confirm the publication with Li Ye. Then he realized that the manuscript that he had not finished reading just now was gone.

This is like watching a drama that has been cut off in the middle of the power and network, and it is bothering and uncomfortable without going up or down.

However, this also reminds Dong Yuejin in disguise that even a senior editor can be so arrogant by this novel. What would it be if ordinary readers read it?

It can be said that Li Ye's second half of the manuscript far exceeded Dong Yuejin's expectations, and also made him make up his mind.

["Louching" is a good book, and you must definitely win it!]

He took out the contract and smiled and said to everyone: "We have drunk and eaten, so we should talk about some serious business! This is the publishing contract for "The Hidden" by the club. Li Ye, take a look."

"Oh, why are you in a hurry?" Li Kaijian grabbed Dong Yuejin and said affectionately: "Editor Dong finally had a clean water, so he would have to let us entertain him for a few days. We have to continue drinking tonight."

Dong Yuejin smashed it, smashed it, knowing that this matter was going to be in trouble.

However, he is also a responsible person and immediately expressed his opinion: "You can't drink any more wine, and drinking more will delay your work.

I'll call the company to report later and try to get higher royalties. Do you think it's okay?"

Li Kaijian was stunned for a moment, and put his arms around Editor Dong's shoulder and patted hard, saying, "Old Dong, you are a fragile and quick person. No matter what, I've made this friend."

...

Dong Yue entered and left the hotel, insisted on refusing Li Kaijian's continued hospitality, and went to the post office to make a phone call.

The phone call process was not very smooth, and the publishing house had a lot of opinions and claimed that "there is no such precedent."

Later, after Dong Yuejin said that "Dahe Publishing House intends to intervene", the editor-in-chief said to him: "If you are willing to take all the responsibilities, then just do whatever you want."

This sentence is very important. If Dong Yuejin insists on making an exception, unless the novel "Luxing" is very popular, Dong Yuejin's future work future will be affected.

Dong Yuejin was depressed and walked around the county town twice, and the more he thought about it, the more he became more and more accustomed.

At this time, the alcohol was coming, and it was almost five o'clock in the afternoon, so I had to plan to stay in first and then talk to Li Ye after careful consideration tomorrow.

He walked into the Qingshui County Guesthouse and saw a young man in front of the counter. While checking in, he asked how to get to the county No. 2 Middle School, and asked the children in the repeater class how old they were usually in their age.

Dong Yuejin became interested and leaned over to look at the other party's letter of introduction. Although myopia was a little difficult to see clearly, there were three words "Publishing House" in the big red chapter.

【Damn it, the monster has seen a ghost.】

Dong Yuejin was shocked and woke up from alcohol.

He quietly retreated, left the guesthouse door, and ran towards the county No. 2 Middle School.
Chapter completed!
