Chapter 17 Invitation from the publisher

Summer, early morning.

Chen Heyu put on sportswear and went to the playground alone. He stretched his muscles and did some warm-up exercises. Ten minutes later, he started exercising along the plastic track.

There is no shortage of running students on the university's track. Most of them are girls, with a few boys here and there. It seems that girls have stricter requirements on their bodies.

The five-kilometer run took fifteen minutes. This was also the result of his control. Previously, he met Zhang Qingshan in No. 2 Middle School who wanted him to learn physical education. In order to avoid this trouble again, he would slow down every time he ran.

After passing by the cafeteria, I ate a bowl of wontons and a basket of steamed buns, then walked to the dormitory.

"Dark Blue, give me more!"

After adding "0.1" energy to your physique, you can instantly recover your physical strength and stride forward.

【Super God System】

[Name: Chen Heyu]

[Physique: 22.6 (human average 8, peak 10)]

[Spirit: 28.8 (human average 8, peak 10)]

[Skill: Guitar LV5 (53/1600)]

【Energy: 10.9】

His physique is already twice that of the peak human body. He can feel that his strength and agility are beginning to be different from ordinary people. He can lift a 200 kilogram barbell with one hand, and he can easily capture the movements of insects flying in the air.

, pinch it with your fingers.

The spirit is close to three times the peak of human beings, the memory is getting stronger and stronger, and the understanding is more terrifying. You can master an obscure mathematics textbook 100% just by reading it once.

On the way back to the dormitory, he left another message for Zhang Kai on TT, asking him to help find a broadband installer, otherwise he would have to go to the Internet cafe for the update of "Shadow Sky" today.

After opening the door, as expected, the three of them were still sleeping soundly.

Picking up the computer, he planned to go to the library to code. Two days before the start of school, he signed up and got familiar with the campus environment. For him, he might as well code a few more lines. After all, the monthly manuscript fee of hundreds of thousands is not worth it in this era.

, it is a small three-bedroom apartment in Lucheng.

"Hello, are you Mr. Heyu?"

"Hello, I am, who are you?"

"Hello Heyu, I am a staff member of Daoguo Publishing House. I would like to communicate with you about the publication of the book "Want to See You"?"

"Oh, is it the publishing house that signed Han Han?"

On the way to the library, Chen Heyu received a call from the publishing house and heard that it was Daoguo Publishing House. He became interested. After all, it was a large publishing house with best-selling novelists such as Anne Babe.

"Yes, I would like to know, do you still have the copyright of the book "Want to See You"?"

There was a male voice on the phone, he sounded less than thirty years old, and his words were polite.

"Still, what are your conditions?"

Chen Heyu was too lazy to beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

"The first printing is 20,000 copies, and the royalties will be 8%." The other person replied.

"I want 10% royalties." Chen Heyu thought for a while and then added: "This is my minimum requirement. If it is lower than this requirement, there is no need to negotiate."

"Sorry, Mr. Heyu, you may not know much about the publishing house. Generally, the contract for a newcomer is 6% royalties. Even Han Han's first book only has 8% royalties." The male voice on the phone explained.

"In addition to this book, I also wrote an online novel called "Shading the Sky". You can read it and then give me an answer." Chen Heyu wants to use the fame of "Shading the Sky" to expand his negotiating power.

.

"Okay, Mr. Heyu, I'll give you your feedback first, and I'll contact you later."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Heyu continued to walk towards the library. He was still confident about whether he could get the 10% royalty. Last month, "Zha Tian" took the first place in the bestseller and monthly ticket lists at the same time, showing great commercial value.

Emerge.

As long as the other party is not blind, they will agree to his request.

The huge library was deserted. He found a seat by the window, poured a cup of hot tea, then opened his laptop and started typing.

The keyboard clicked, and his fingers jumped quickly and flexibly. He finished writing 10,000 words in an hour. As his physical fitness increased, his typing speed became faster and faster. He basically wrote for 3 hours a day, and updated 10,000 words on a working day.

There are still 20,000 words left to save the manuscript.

When there are large rewards or official events, he will be given an additional update of 30,000 words, which will make readers excited and make the writers call him a scab and a dog!

At about 11 o'clock, Daoguo called again.

"Mr. Heyu, we are willing to give you a 10% royalty and a first printing of 50,000 copies, but there is one requirement."

"With the help of "Shading the Sky" to promote?"

"Mr. Heyu is a smart man. You will also benefit from the superimposed popularity of the two books."

"no problem."

Chen Heyu didn't mind. He used "two" different pen names at that time, just out of fun, and had no intention of being a boss behind the scenes. He still understood the principle that cooperation would benefit both sides.

After the general direction is agreed upon, the rest of the matter becomes relatively simple. You leave an email address for the other party to send the contract documents.

If the book "Want to See You" wants to make money, it can only rely on the physical book and future film and television copyrights. The manuscript fee from "Hua Huo" magazine, which is 30,000 yuan after serialization, is not as good as that of "Zhidao".

A fraction of the day.

After finalizing the publication matter, Chen Heyu was in a good mood. After putting away his computer, he planned to go to Lucheng University for a walk and visit Luo Wenwen.

I went back to the dormitory, no one was there, put down the computer, and went out directly.

Both HKUST and Luda University are in the same university town. It only takes ten minutes to walk there. In this era, there are no online ride-hailing or shared bicycles. If you want to take a taxi, you have to stand on the side of the road and stop it with your hands.

Harry Potter: Go to your school at noon and give you something.

The small bottle cap that no one has unscrewed: Okay, okay, do you want to call Li Xue?

Luo Wenwen and Li Xue were in the same major and were assigned to the same class, but they were not in the same dormitory.

Harry Potter: Don’t you want to spend time with me? Thurs.jpg

The small bottle cap that no one unscrewed: ...wouldn’t it be better if we didn’t call her?

Harry Potter: It's settled, I'll wait for you at the east gate of the school.

Chen Heyu put away his mobile phone, smiled, and walked north along Fenglin Road towards Luda University. Because it was the beginning of the semester, most of the roads were filled with school buses. There were six or seven universities around this university town, so he walked all the way to the restaurant.

There are so many Internet cafes, so many KTVs, and so many hotels.

Thinking of his experiences in his previous life, he smiled knowingly.

The love story with Luo Wenwen is neither earth-shattering nor spectacular, just an ordinary college romance and an unforgettable cinnabar mole.

The east gate of Luda University is lined with lush purple bamboo forests on the left and right sides. Looking from a distance, a girl wearing a long aqua skirt is standing in the shade of the tree, her little head looking to the left and right from time to time.

It wasn't until a boy appeared in his eyes that he showed a surprised expression, jumped up and waved to him.

Her long, milky white legs are particularly charming in the sun.

"Ha Yu!"

Chen Heyu walked towards the girl, never letting her sneak away from him in this life.
