Chapter 187 Being so busy is not the life I want
Lu Wu: "Recently, a novel called "The Old Man and the Sea" has become popular in the circle of friends. It seems that not talking about it is not enough to show my superior literary quality. I took time to read it, and frankly, I don't like it very much. The writing and artistic conception of this book is very good, and it is quite popular. However, its words and sentences are too translated, and it is also written about foreign people and things. Writers of the great country should focus on We are describing our own customs, and our own national character. Only the national is the world.”
When Duan Xiaochen took the time out of his busy schedule to tell him about it, he said indignantly: "The book is good enough, what's wrong with writing about foreign countries? He really cares about it. It's a pity that I liked his books very much before! Really the older I get. The more I hate it, the more I like to point fingers."
Du Caige didn't really take it to heart, because Lu Wu's remarks, although criticized him, also implied an admission: If the grade of the book you wrote is not good enough, I, Lu Wu, disdain to comment.
I feel sorry for you precisely because you wrote so well, you should have written like that, not like this. If only you could write it that way.
To criticize you is to look down on you.
That's pretty much what it means.
Du Caige smiled and changed the subject: "Are you going to go to the next city? Is your body still enough?"
Duan Xiaochen yawned and said lazily, "Oh, what if you can't bear it? You came to give my mother a massage?"
"I can't take Juanzi's job, she won't be happy."
"Speaking of Juanzi, she really fell ill yesterday, with a fever of 39 degrees. There are so many things I have to do myself, and the assistant I hired temporarily can't help at all. Hey, I'm tired like a dog."
"Don't talk nonsense," Du Caige criticized her, "dogs are not as tired as you."
"...Good heart. Can't you say something nice to comfort me?" Duan Xiaochen acted coquettishly.
Du Caige had goosebumps all over his body.
This woman with the sound of nature, her coquettish voice can make a man succumb to the bones.
It's hard to imagine what it would be like to hear her sing in a low voice while applauding her for love.
Will it change from half an hour to half a minute?
Du Caige shook his head vigorously, smashing out the thoughts that were easy to 404.
"But I haven't been able to comfort people very much. Well then, when the summer vacation is over and your concert tour is over, I will knock Du Ranqi unconscious and mail it to you, so that she can accompany your sisters."
"It sounds good, then it's a deal," Duan Xiaochen smiled, "Actually, I still have something to worry about. Do you have time to listen to me?"
Du Caige looked at the newly created document on the desktop.
"Prologue The Legend of Nanshao"
"In the south of Daxia, among thousands of mountains and rivers, with hookahs, there used to be a beautiful kingdom."
"This kingdom, people call it Nanshao."
This is the beginning of the novel version of Legend of Sword and Fairy.
It's been a morning, and there are only such braille words. It's not that Du Caige forgot, but that he is not satisfied with the beginning.
I've been thinking about how to modify it.
In fact, he didn't want to be interrupted.
But... hey, I owe her.
"You say, I listen."
"That's it..." Duan Xiaochen said a lot.
Rory is wordy, over and over again.
Fortunately, her voice is nice and not annoying.
As for the content... The main reason is that in order for her newly established company to gain a firm foothold, she expects the support of Zitian and Donglai Entertainment, and is even willing to exchange shares for support.
Ouyang Jin has been working on this.
And Zitian had already negotiated it, and is currently hitting the power to win Donglai.
In order to show her love to Dongnae, she even resisted the pressure and invited Dongnae Entertainment's artist group "BabyFace" on the first stop of the tour.
However, the attitude of the boss of Dongnae Entertainment has always been very ambiguous, and he dragged on and refused to make a clear statement.
And now Zitian's boss seems to want to change his mind.
Man, there is nothing good.
Du Caige didn't know why she was talking, but she would sum up this sentence. There seems to be a problem with this logic?
He asked his doubts directly.
"Because, men don't have a good thing in the first place. When a woman proposes to get married, the scumbag just drags it on without making a clear statement. In short, there is no good thing." Duan Xiaochen said angrily.
"..."
Don't bother with logical problems with women. "Then what are you going to do next?"
Duan Xiaochen's voice was very distressed: "I don't know either. If a new entertainment company does not get the acquiescence and support of one or two of the seven majors, it will be difficult to gain a foothold. There are no resources, no star artists, and no echelon trainees. , without a good team of agents...it's hard."
Du Caige thought for a while and suggested, "You can try to change your thinking. Now it's 2008. You can try to use Internet thinking to do the entertainment industry."
"How to do it?"
It was Du Caige's turn to worry. In the past, except when he was shooting movies, he was always the type of "fingers that don't touch the sun and spring water". He didn't understand the daily management and operation of entertainment companies at all, and he was not interested in learning about them.
Some people will say that if you have never eaten pork, have you never seen a pig run?
I saw it, but I saw it absent-mindedly and didn't pay attention to it seriously.
"Are you seriously considering it? Did you decide to start a company with me?" Duan Xiaochen's voice softened.
Du Caige was horrified.
Yeah, what's the matter with me? I haven't decided to get involved yet, why do I think so enthusiastically.
However, having said that, when it comes to running a company, that Yan Yingzhen should have more experience, why don't you ask her next time? Although she is an Internet company, she has never been in the entertainment industry, but now she wants to use Internet thinking to make an entertainment company.
If you ask her, you might get some interesting opinions.
"I have to think about it again." Du Caige said.
Duan Xiaochen was busy again soon. After hanging up the phone, Du Caige began to think hard, thinking seriously about how to write the beginning of the Legend of Sword and Fairy in a more online novel, more in line with the golden three chapters principle.
As for Chu's version, it's actually not bad for physical publishing.
Just found a little inspiration when my phone vibrated like crazy.
The train of thought was interrupted, Du Caige picked up the phone in annoyance, just wanted to press it off, but found that the caller ID was "Quan".
He quickly swiped to connect. "Mr. Chen Quan, hello!"
Chen Quan's gentle voice with a warm smile made people feel that the whole world has become warm tones: "Hello, Xiao Du, how was your May Day holiday?"
"I'm fine, I just can't wait to consult with you."
"When are you free? It's the old rule," Chen Quan said. "Agree on a time, and I'll leave it to you every week from now on."
When it comes to time, Du Caige is a little worried.
He has faced a lot of things these days.
"Fairy Tale" will be released tomorrow. Although he doesn't have to go to publicity, Huayu still hopes that he will accept one or two exclusive interviews. Du Caige also feels that it is necessary to help Xiaojiang Chong to boost sales and achieve the friendship of his friends.
At the same time, at the earliest tomorrow, at the latest the day after tomorrow, Liu Zifei will bring the special effects of "The Depths of a Hundred Flowers", and he will complete the final fine-cutting and dubbing.
The work is heavy and time consuming, and it must be done as soon as possible, otherwise the registration deadline will be missed.
Then this afternoon, I made an appointment with the people from Xinya Publishing House, although the manuscript of "Zhu Xian" was handed over to them for proofreading before May Day.
But Du Caige took the time to make some adjustments to the finale in the past few days, and he wanted to give them the latest version. At the same time, the other party also said that there were still some details to discuss with him.
For this meeting, Du Caige originally made an appointment with Fan Yuhong to meet and chat this afternoon before the May Day, but it could only be postponed to the evening.
In addition, the sister-in-law had to go there and promised Du Shuang that she would send money to the sister-in-law.
Then in a few days, he agreed to attend the writing training class of the founding Chinese website, and he was going to meet with several great writers such as "Fireworks Die Sadly".
And Yu Yu also said that he wanted to visit him and ask some questions about music.
In addition to this, there is the daily codeword work.
Thinking of this, Du Caige felt like his head was going to explode.
I just want to be a quiet salted fish!
I don't even want to talk about love, I just want to have some time to watch dramas, follow shows, read books, and listen to songs.
But I made sacrifices, I didn't even find a woman, but I didn't even have time to watch dramas, follow fandoms, read books, and listen to songs. This... This is not the life I want!
Why is my schedule so full!
Du Caige, who was full of inner cows, was caught in the difficulty of choosing, and simply said: "Mr. Chen Quan, otherwise, you can see when you are free, and I will definitely free up my time."
"That's it, that's fine," Chen Quan said softly, "then this afternoon, between 4:00 and 5:00, or between 5:00 and 6:00, which time do you want to choose? I'm ready, how about you?"
Emmmm... Du Caige doesn't plan to go back when he says it.
Although the time will be relatively short, after dealing with the new shoot publishing house, it should be too late to rush to consult.
"Then between 5 and 6, Mr. Chen Quan. Also, please send me the address, I have forgotten."
"Okay, let's talk then."
After hanging up the phone, a text message came in soon, with the detailed address of Chen Quan's psychological counseling studio, which was located in a middle-to-high-end residential area.
Du Caige guessed that this teacher Chen Quan probably separated half of his home as a psychological counseling room.
For this afternoon's consultation, Du Caige was full of expectations and a little nervous.
Don't know what to expect?
He didn't even bother to change the beginning of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", so he simply retouched the end of "Zhu Xian".
After seeing that the time was almost up, I copied the novel into a USB flash drive and drove to meet the people from New Sprout Publishing House.
By the time he raised his hand and knocked on Chen Quan's door near 5 o'clock in the afternoon, he was so tired that he didn't want to say anything.
