Chapter 1036 1038 [Comparison of people, maddened to death]
After the summer vacation, Xiang Nan and Ling Xiangqian only went out to play together for a day, and then they started their study career again.
"Cissy, your grades are already very good now, I think it's okay to relax for a few days." Xiang Nan persuaded with a smile, "Don't push yourself too hard."
"I relax, but others don't relax." Ling Xiangqian waved her hand and said, "Look, just this summer vacation, I don't know how many students have enrolled in cram schools, or are madly doing test papers at home."
Xiang Nan was taken aback, then nodded.
Holidays are indeed the best opportunity for many students to overtake on corners. While others are playing, TA is studying hard. The so-called hard work and talent, hard work will naturally pay off.
Although Ling Xiangqian ranks first in the rankings all the year round, she can easily be stabbed and knocked down if she is not careful.
After all, people have the phenomenon of memory decline. Like Xiang Nan, after studying once, it takes about three months to half a year before he completely forgets it.
For ordinary people, if they don’t memorize for a week, most of the knowledge will be forgotten, so they must repeat the memorization and practice to maintain their abilities.
If Ling Xiangqian doesn't study for half a month, even if she has been ranked first in the annual list before, there is a high probability that she will be surpassed. So, she made the right choice.
…
During the summer vacation, not everyone is as self-disciplined as they are.
Many students are still busy surfing the Internet, playing games, sleeping late, reading idle books... During this summer vacation, the sales of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" and "Tomb Raider Notes" have increased again.
The popularity of Roborie's book has made the two novels more and more famous. Both books have tens of thousands of fans on Baidu Tieba, and there are thousands of new posts updated every day.
In addition, there are also a large number of Robozaka novel websites, which have also uploaded this novel, and the hit rate has reached a million levels. You can see how hot it is.
It's just that "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" only produced two parts. At the end of "Longling Miku", Hu Bayi, Wang Kaixuan, and Shirley Yang had red spots on their bodies, and after they were cursed with ghost holes, they never appeared again. sequel.
How the Mojin trio went to southern Yunnan to rob and offer the king's tomb, whether they could find the Muchen Bead, and how to get rid of the curse on their bodies... But many Mojin fans are looking forward to it.
Although "Tomb Raider Notes" only released "Seven Star Lu Palace", the structure of the magnificent worldview has already been established, and countless foreshadowings have been laid.
Such as who stole the inlaid gold silk, what exactly does 02200059 mean, what is the origin of the oil bottle, and who is the blood corpse in the coffin... This also makes readers full of curiosity.
It’s just that Xiang Nan stopped the serialization of these two novels one after another. It has been half a year since he started writing again, and many readers scolded his eunuch, saying that he just digs holes and doesn’t care about burying them.
But even so, it still does not prevent more and more readers from entering the pit, and they are looking forward to Xiang Nan's sequel.
Jingu Legend magazine has received many letters, emails, and messages, hoping they can urge Xiang Nan to resume serialization.
The strong appeal of the readers has also made the major publishing houses pay more and more attention to the two novels "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" and "Tomb Raider Notes".
…
library.
Xiang Nan is writing "Di Renjie: The Nether Taoist".
"Di Renjie" series, he has now written the third volume. The first two are "Tongtian Empire" and "Dragon King of Shendu".
Because of its novel themes, exciting stories, and suspense, it was very popular among readers after it was released. So there are three series in a row.
As for the "Old Stories of Wulin" series, I have finished writing "Archer Liu Baiyuan" and "Taoist He Bi'an", and now I am writing the third "Barrier Liu Anran".
Just then, his cell phone vibrated twice.
Xiang Nan was taken aback for a moment, took out his mobile phone and saw it was an unfamiliar number.
He hesitated for a moment, then hung up the phone.
These days, publishers often come to him, hoping to get the publishing rights of novels.
But to be honest, Xiang Nan didn't want to sell.
The main reason is to worry about the reaction of the family, after all, Chu Guoqiang and his wife are really philistines.
I can get into a fight over a few cents, but if they find out that I might earn millions, or even tens of millions, I don’t know how they will react.
For the poor, windfall is often not a good thing.
Like many foreign lottery winners, after winning huge prizes, they ate and drank recklessly, spent all their money in a few years, and also got into a bad habit, and their lives were even worse than not winning the lottery forward.
There are countless such examples, so Xiang Nan naturally has to guard against them.
Therefore, he plans to wait until his eighteenth birthday next year before publishing a book. At that time, he can directly sign a contract with the publishing house without going through his home, and make a fortune silently.
Then, transfer the money to the family in small pens, instead of dropping millions from the sky. Even a non-greedy person would be dizzy seeing so much money, not to mention Chu Tiankuo's parents love money so much.
…
But just as Xiang Nan hung up the phone, the phone vibrated again, startling Ling Xiangqian.
Xiang Nan had no choice but to smile at Ling Xiangqian, and then went out with his mobile phone, "Hey, who is it?"
"Hello, is this Mr. Chu Tiankuo? I'm Chen Dong, the deputy general manager of Broadcom Culture Company. I read your novel "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" and thought it was very good. I intend to publish it.
Look, do you have time, I want to have a good chat with you. "Over the phone, a male voice said enthusiastically.
"No need, I don't want to sell the copyright for the time being. Don't contact me again, goodbye!" Xiang Nan said bluntly, and hung up the phone directly.
But not long after hanging up, the call came in again.
Xiang Nan saw that it was still the same number, and couldn't help getting angry, "Don't call me anymore, I told you I don't want to sell."
"Mr. Chu, please listen to our terms first, we are really sincere." Chen Dong said on the phone.
"I don't want to hear, and I don't want to talk, don't bother me anymore." Xiang Nan cursed, then hung up the phone and turned off the phone.
At this point, he really misses his smartphone. An unfamiliar number filter can solve most of his troubles. It's a pity that we have to wait another five or six years before the advent of smartphones. I really miss it!
…
"Tiankuo, what happened, who did you argue with?" Ling Xiangqian asked curiously.
"It's a cultural company again. They want to buy the copyright of my novel, but they can't get rid of it. It's really annoying!" Xiang Nan said angrily.
Ling Xiangqian heard this, but couldn't laugh or cry.
How many students are eager to post and publish their own articles. However, Xiang Nan regarded those publishing houses and cultural companies as flies and mosquitoes, and hated them endlessly.
This is really comparing people to people, and it's maddening!
