Chapter 453
The old man is still full of stubborn temper. After the last time he drew a lot of criticism on Robb’s child, he didn’t expect the kindergarten to sell out. He always felt that he had to come up with something decent, otherwise he felt a little slapped in the face, so he eagerly wanted to write a book of his own, and took out a quill on the spot: “I’ll write here, Once it’s finished, I’ll go to your printer to print it.”
Robb showed his support with a smile, then stood behind Elder and watched him write…
Title: “Overgrown with Darkness” Pine Forest”.
The old man is full of emotion, and he wrote it word by word. Robb read it carefully, don’t say, this old man’s literary level is really good, the writing is so beautiful, and every sentence can be beautiful. Out of the picture, but…the price of such beauty is that there is no plot.
He has written thousands of words and is still writing scenes! Repeatedly depicting the beauty of the forest.
Robb: “…”
After writing 5,000 words on the scene, the old man finally let the hero appear, a melancholy middle-aged elf who lived more than 400 years Year-old, with a whole body of sang, a guy with an extremely awkward personality. As soon as he appeared on the stage, he watched everything around him from the perspective of a middle-aged elf. He felt a leaf, a tree, and a small Bird has sentiment… He is full of sentiment about everything in this world.
He shua shua shua understood more than 10,000 words.
Robb: “…”
The old man raised his head and chuckled: “What? My book is profound! It deeply analyzes a poet’s understanding of the forest. love, hate, awe, and sentimentality.”
Robb covered his face: “Old man, what about the plot?”
“What?” Haven’t you seen the title of my book? “Forest Overgrown with Black Pine”, this is the theme of my article, this book is about the perception of the forest, the deep feelings for the forest, what kind of plot do you want? Simply no It needs a plot.”
Robb: “…”
This is very embarrassing, Robb has a “flapping” word brewing in his throat, but he doesn’t know whether to say it or not. After thinking about it carefully, forget it, don’t say anything about other people’s books, even if you are telling the truth, some people can’t bear it.
Elder himself was very satisfied, and continued to write frantically for a while. Don’t look at his old arms and legs, but he was really fast in writing. He actually wrote 20,000 words by hand that day, which made Robb admire inexplicably. ,too strong! As far as Robb knows, there is an author named Infinite Change on a certain novel website. He is already a very diligent guy. He can write more than 10,000 words a day at most. He still uses keyboard typing, not handwriting.
Elder Elder’s writing speed is simply proud of the pigeons.
So, a few days later, the Elf Elder came to Robb with a thick book of “Forest Overgrown with Black Pine”: “hehe, Great Druid, my literary work is finally finished. , I’m sure, this is a good book that everyone has read.”
Robb had no choice but to say: “Well, it’s a good book, and it will definitely sell well.”
p>
The elf Elder said: “I’m going to go to your printing house now and print five thousand copies first, what do you think?”
“Five thousand?” Robb was startled: ” Hey, Old Mister, you should be more stable. Look at my Man painting. The first batch was only printed with 500 copies to test the water. Your print will cost 5,000 copies, will it be too much? , if you can’t sell it, you will lose a lot.”
“Look at what you said.” Elf Elder said: “Didn’t you sell almost 8,000 copies of your Man painting in the end? This book is thought-provoking. It is a book with soul. No matter how you look at it, it is better than your Man painting book. Since you can sell 8,000 copies, it is trivial for me to sell 10,000 copies. My first batch It is already very cautious to print only 5,000 copies.”
After finishing speaking, the old man turned around gracefully and walked towards the printing factory, saying to the elf guard behind him, “Go. Bring all the money from my family and give it all to the printing house to print books!”
Robb: “…”
Well, this is the first time for the old man and the newcomer Just like writing online novels, I don’t take Wubai seriously when I open my mouth. What Third Young Master potatoes are, they are all chickens. I will be invincible in the whole world as soon as I write a book. For such a person, persuasion is ineffective, and they can only send a song.
Robb waved to the old man’s back and sang: “Maybe I will turn around after hitting the south wall, maybe I will give up when I see the Yellow River, maybe I have to go all the way to the dark. …”
The old man turned his head and said strangely: “What are you singing there in Chinese? I don’t understand.”
Robb said: “I’m here Sing a song of blessing.”
“so that’s how it is.” The old man went happily.
Robb covered his face…
A few days later, the first engraving for printing “hard paper” was successfully made. It is small and the strips are very thin, because it is written with a quill pen, so many lines can be printed on one page.
It is impossible to print this kind of characters on rice paper, because the ink on rice paper is easy to spread. If you print this kind of small characters, if the ink spreads to the side, the whole character will be smeared.
The hard paper developed by the wizard alchemist and the rabbit craftsman is different. The ink on this paper will not spread, and it can print small characters on it without sticking. The quality is extremely high. , of course, the cost is also so high.
Elder Elder printed 5,000 copies of “Forest Overgrown with Black Pines” with higher-cost paper, shua shua shua, the paper mill and the printing mill both made a lot of money, and the workers were happy sky.
But well…
Elder himself is not so happy!
His great work “Forest Overgrown with Black Pines”, which he did his best, suffered a tragic crash. Although the whole elves were dispatched and tried their best to help him sell, they only sold the trifling Hundreds of copies, and his first edition printed a full 5,000 copies, with more than 4,000 backlogged at home.
This wave of blood loss cost the elf Elder the coffin that he finally saved up. In the end, only a few nobles and literary youths shouted hello, and the family A mountain of books…
What went wrong?
After a deep review and frantic research, Elder Elf came to the conclusion that this year’s readers are too naive! His book can only be seen by Old Bai.
Chapter 636 Why not go through the Transmission Gate?
A few days later, in the evening…
Robb sat in front of the crystal ball and looked at the young lady Wang, who was opposite the crystal ball.
The usually majestic queen has a sand sculpture face today. While flipping through the book in his hand, he patted the table, laughed heartily: “This… what kind of sand sculpture Man painting is this… No way, I’m dying of laughter, it’s too sand sculpture… A hero who is interested, the bald head will become stronger. …hahaha…”
Robb: “Hello!”
As soon as he opened his mouth to protest, he saw the queen suddenly put away her smile and changed back to a picture. Serious face: “No monsters have hit you recently, so you started doing this kind of unfathomable mystery? How busy are you?”
Robb spreads his hands: “Even if the monsters hit me, so do I It’s unfathomable mystery stuff.”
It’s well-founded and convincing, and the young lady Wang has nothing to complain about.
She took out another book from the side, it was “Forest Overgrown with Black Pines”, which was beautifully packaged and higher-grade paper, and opened it gently: “Actually, I prefer this book, However, I also heard that this book simply cannot be sold, and the Cotton family did not dare to buy more. They only brought 200 copies to the road of light, and the 200 copies have not been sold out. And yours Man’s painting book is not only selling well in West Wind, but also in Bright Road.”
She concluded: “It seems that this Elf Elder made the same mistake as I did when I made the movie.”
Robb said with a smile: “Yo, do you already know what mistakes you made in making movies?”
“Out of the crowd.”
Queen She stopped after only four words. She is not a person who likes to criticize herself in front of other people. If it wasn’t for Robb, she wouldn’t even bother to say these four words. It is good to know.
Hearing that the Queen has such a realization, Robb was happy: “Actually, Yangchun Baixue and the parents are both art, profound, meaningful and straightforward. They are also art, but art is a different form of expression. That’s all, it’s boring to force a competition. We just need to know exactly what kind of readership we are facing when we create art, and that’s fine. I really respect the Elder Elf. A person who pursues art wholeheartedly, the only mistake he makes is to make a mistake in the positioning and audience of his literature and art, so he just printed a few more books.”
The queen said: “I still I thought you were going to mock him because he used to mock your toddler painting.”
Robb laughed: “no no no, I won’t mock him, because I also feel that this Man painting It’s children’s paintings.”
Queen: “…”
“Before the invention of cardboard, I could only do this kind of children’s paintings.” Robb said: “Because I am very I know that the conditions at that time can only be done with this thing, but now that I have cardboard, I may be able to turn the Man drawing drawn by the child into a very beautiful Man drawing. Would you like to send a serious painter to me and help me I’m ghostwriting a beautiful One Punch Man.”
“I don’t want it.” The Queen said solemnly: “My artist wants to serve me, and I plan to start publishing a book.”
“Yo!” Robb wondered: “You want to publish too? Do you want to use an artist? Are you planning to publish a book?”
The queen shook her head and said, “I found this kind of cheap The paper is very suitable for doing some knowledge promotion that is beneficial to the country, so I plan to make some important manufacturing techniques into atlases, and then distribute them to various cities. Let those remote cities also pass through Books get knowledge. I even thought about the first batch of pictures to be passed out, the production method and diagram of the waterwheel, the production method and diagram of the rail minecart system, and the diagram of the method of sugar beet and sugar…”
