The subsequent manuscript of "Living" is about 95,000 words, divided into three parts.
Each channel looks like about 30,000 words.
The first episode was not finished reading Chen Xiaomi so quickly, so Zouping could only wait anxiously.
Seeing that the other party was bored, Li Heng took the initiative to chat with him.
There is no limit on chat content, including astronomy, geography, economic and current affairs, including literature, wherever you talk, the topic has never stopped.
I don’t know if I don’t know this. Zou Ping felt something was wrong when he talked about it, and he became more and more impressed by Li Heng’s profound knowledge.
Knowledge is something, and it cannot be temporarily fooled and filled.
He couldn't help but wonder, how 17 years old was the other party?
Why did Li Heng's words, deeds, speech and temperament, and his forward-looking attitude towards many things make him think that the other party is an old scholar who talks happily?
Why does an ordinary chat make you feel a lot of pressure?
Will you feel ashamed of yourself?
Gradually, Zou Ping fully understood why Li Heng could write a masterpiece like "Living"?
Zou Ping, who usually thinks he is half a cultured person, feels insignificant at this moment. Compared to Li Heng who can be easily picked up, he is like a newborn child, which is really childish and ridiculous.
Zou Ping's posture became lower and lower, and he became less confident in chatting.
Chen Xiaomi, who was keenly aware of this, looked up at him, then looked at Li Heng, and slowly fell into deep thought: Could this be the real Li Heng? Didn’t you show it before?
She also secretly listened to the content of the two of them just now, but the wise and kind Li Heng had a great impact on her.
She thought to herself: It turns out that this bastard is really a versatile person.
In addition to being able to coax women and talk, he also acts kind-hearted and looks decent when pretending to be gentle. No wonder Zijin still cares about him now.
Zou Ping carefully asked a question about Chen Xiaomi being criticized: "Teacher Li, how many books have you read except for textbooks?"
Yo!
He even called the teacher politely, he was very good at doing things.
Wang Runwen and Chen Xiaomi were also concerned about this issue and looked up at him.
Li Heng recalled, half truth and half hypothesis: "The specific number of secretary is not clear, but I have loved to read the hundreds or thousands of books from my father since I was a child."
He is telling the truth. He has really read the books that Comrade Li Jianguo regards as a treasure since he was a child.
But these are all things that happened in the previous life. At best, there are more than a hundred books I have read in this life, and they are all read in order to avoid labor during the winter and summer vacations.
It is called "hobby for learning".
In fact, Tian Rune knew his little thoughts very clearly, but she had the idea of ​​favoring boys over girls, and her son was her lifeblood, so she was not willing to break it.
Hundreds and thousands of books? Zou Ping was a little surprised and couldn't help but speak: "I'll ask, "I'm uncle..."
Li Heng understood it: "My old father used to be engaged in education."
Oh, so that's the case, so many things can be explained.
This time, unlike facing Chen Xiaomi alone, he also generously told the story of the second uncle in his hometown. He told them that this is the source of his inspiration.
Chen Xiaomi came from the same place as him and was very familiar with the second uncle of the Li family. After careful recollection, and then compared it with the stories in the book, hey! I really found that there were shadows of the second uncle in many places, but life was only artistically processed.
At this point, she believed it.
She was sure that this book was really written by Li Heng.
I am sure that Li Heng is talented and has a strong literary talent.
As she thought about it, for a moment, she didn't know whether it was envy, sourness, or a little regretful. The combination of various complex emotions was mixed, and it was a mixture of flavors.
Half an hour later, Chen Xiaomi's first manuscript appeared in Zouping's hands.
As Zouping couldn't wait to enter the state of reading, Li Heng was no longer idle and took out the Chinese paper from his schoolbag and started to do the questions.
His actions made both editors dizzy.
During this period, Chen Xiaomi saw that the head of the test paper was marked with Capital No. 4 Middle School, and immediately realized that Zijin must have tried to send it to him.
At around 1:30 pm, Chen Xiaomi and Zou Ping finished reading the remaining manuscripts of "Alive".
Li Heng observed for a while, and when he saw that both of them were still immersed in the book, he realized.
He packed the test papers at the right time and asked Zou Ping with a correct attitude: "Editor Zou, will the follow-up part still be satisfactory?"
Faced with such a literary masterpiece that can touch the soul, Zou Ping, as a senior editor, was sloppy and raised his head sincerely and said:
"Okay! Apart from "good", I can't find any other words to describe its greatness."
Li Heng nodded comfortably and spoke directly: "It's good. Since both of you are very satisfied, I won't be vain anymore.
Editor Chen and Editor Zou came here from thousands of miles away, so they should be prepared. I want to hear how much manuscript fees can you bid for?"
Here comes!
I talked about money again.
Hearing this, the English teacher who had been accompanying him turned his head.
In her heart, this student has many attractive highlights, but he is obsessed with money, which really destroys the romantic beauty of literature.
Just as Zouping was thinking about the right price, Chen Xiaomi looked at the other party and had already spoken first:
"The second half of "Living" is more exciting than the first 40,000 words, and far exceeds my expectations. On behalf of "People's Literature", I can give the industry's highest royalty standard of 30 yuan, with a thousand words of 30 yuan."
Since the country resumed the royalty fee policy, the royalty fee has increased several times in the past decade. Until now, the manuscript fee for normal new writers is 12 yuan, a thousand words.
And as Chen Xiaomi said, Thousand Words 30 has reached the top.
Even the top writers in China cannot exceed this number of royalties.
The reason why Chen Xiaomi raised the royalties to the highest level in one go was actually that she had no choice.
It is also the last and only way.
She knew that Li Heng didn't like him and had a big prejudice against him. She could still allow herself to be here and not drive her away. The purpose was to use her to raise the price.
As he wished, Chen Xiaomi, who saw through his thoughts, directly capped the top of the board in one breath.
There is no room for Zouping to bargain.
She wanted to see if she was so sincere and blocked all the roads before her competitors spoke. Will Li Heng hand over "Living" to herself under the same conditions?
She is in the general!
Use his niece Chen Zijin to general Li Heng’s army!
You can have opinions about me, you can ridicule and mock me in words, and I have endured all this.
After all, I have done the same thing, after all, I have made mistakes first. Therefore, as a mature social person and a person who pursues career, Chen Xiaomi accepted it with humiliation for his past mistakes.
However, public is public, private is private, and the grudges and hatreds of the two are private. The publication matters we are negotiating now are public.
If Li Heng is not distinguished between public and private, if Li Heng handed over "Alive" to the other party when he was 30 yuan in a thousand words.
Then she had nothing to say.
Then she will carry her bag and leave!
Then she will use her lifelong efforts to mobilize all the people of the Chen family to stop Zijin from being with him.
Not only Li Heng holds grudges, but also as a woman, she also holds grudges, and has always been.
In fact, to put it bluntly, she was just betting that Li Heng did not forget Zi Jin and still cared about Zi Jin.
This is also the only possibility and chance she has left.
Sure enough, Chen Xiaomi's momentum of speaking out the kingly bombing caught Zou Ping off guard.
He was hesitating just now whether to play all the cards in one go? He didn't expect that the other party was more straightforward than himself!
This made Zou Ping'an, who was one step behind, very upset.
Li Heng looked at Chen Xiaomi and thought to himself that this woman could bend and stretch. In order to achieve something, she could tolerate what ordinary people could not tolerate, and she was also considered a powerful character.
