Facts have proved that one can never take chances. If it is useful to improvise, wouldn't the effort be meaningless?
The next morning, Yun Miaoke stood in front of the lottery station, silently.
Of course I didn't win, not even a single number.
The feeling of hunger in her stomach made her more rational. There are no shortcuts in the world, so she should be down-to-earth and face reality!
Fortunately, there is always a road ahead. Just when she was desperate, a call from her editor gave her a glimmer of hope, telling her that her new book had been picked up by a publishing house last month and that she was likely to sign a contract for publication.
Yes, she writes books on the Internet. She doesn't dare to be called a writer, and at most she can only be called an Internet writer.
Affected by the environment in which she grew up, she liked to write since she was a child. Since she had no one to talk to, she could only vent her thoughts with pen and paper. When she was fourteen, she began to submit articles to magazines and published many articles one after another.
.
Later, as the Internet developed and Internet literature rose, she began to write novels on the Internet. In the beginning, she did not have much hope and never thought about making money from this. However, the environment was good, and her first
This book alone earned her tens of thousands, which was how she paid for her first college tuition. Coupled with student loans, she could have supported herself until graduation, but who knew that something like this would suddenly happen.
However, since she was a child, she has been accustomed to facing everything alone. No matter what kind of difficulties and dangers she faces, she is fearless and moves forward bravely. Because there is a saying that goes like this: If you are not strong, who will show your weakness?
?
The fate of the orphan determines her attitude when facing difficulties. She can only be strong, only strong.
"Keke, please sort out the outline again, and then send me a 200,000-word manuscript!"
"Two hundred thousand?" Yun Miaoke looked surprised, "In the past, instead of 30,000 to 50,000 words, a maximum of 100,000 words was enough?"
"Yes, but this time is special, because this book is not only being discussed for publication, but also for film and television rights. There is a film and television company who is very interested in your book and is in contact with the company. I am in charge of them.
I've talked to you and the other party is very sincere in cooperating with you, but now your word count is too few. They hope you can provide more content. The subject matter is basically fine. If there are no major problems with the character setting and plot, I think the success rate will be
Very high! So hurry up and send me the manuscript as soon as possible!"
"Okay, I get it! I will get it done as soon as possible and send it to your email!" Although she currently only has 50,000 words, which is far from 200,000, she still agreed because such an opportunity is really great.
It’s so rare, you must take advantage of it!
In recent years, online literature has developed rapidly, and many works have been successfully published in film and television, such as the familiar "The Legend of Zhen Huan" and "Why Sheng Xiao Mo", etc., which have been well received by readers and audiences.
As an online writer, everyone hopes that their works can be published or even filmed, and she is the same. She hopes to use such an opportunity to prove the value of her works, but she has never had the opportunity before, and she has never dared to hope for it.
, because there are too many talented people in this industry, she feels that she cannot reach the heights of others, so she has always maintained a humble and low-key attitude, writing her own small words peacefully, on the one hand, her hobbies, and on the other hand.
On the one hand, you can also earn some tuition and living expenses, that's it.
But she didn't expect that the opportunity would suddenly come to her. She was flattered, but at the same time she also felt very lucky that it was at this juncture, when she needed money the most!
So no matter what, she had to fight for it. Even if she didn't eat or drink for three days and three nights, she still had to get the manuscript out!
Maybe not every effort will succeed, but every success must be achieved through hard work!
"Meimei, I'm going to take three days off. Lend me your class notes later!" This is the first time in her life that she has skipped class, and these days are still very important professional courses, but there is no other way. She is now
Short on time and money!
"Keke, are you going to work again? Why is it so serious this time that you can't even attend class?" Pan Mei asked confused.
"It's not a part-time job, it's a job to catch up on manuscripts!" Yun Miaoke told his best classmate and colleague exactly what happened.
"Really? That's great! Congratulations, Coco!" Pan Mei also writes novels and knows how rare such an opportunity is.
"Thank you!" Yun Miaoke smiled slightly and said, "I'll leave it to you in the classroom first. I'll be 'retreating' for a few days and I'll contact you after I finish writing!"
"Well, come on, work hard!"
"I can do it, and so can you!" Yun Miaoke not only encouraged herself, but also encouraged her friends. Although she brought Pan Mei into this industry and debuted a little later than her, her writing skills are no worse than hers.
So she felt that Pan Mei would encounter such a good opportunity sooner or later and succeed.
After settling things at school, Yun Miaoke no longer had any worries. She returned to her residence alone and began to "retreat" to write her manuscript.
The place where she lives is very close to the school. It is a teacher's family building. The house belongs to Teacher Li, who used to take her professional classes. Last semester, Teacher Li went abroad to study, so he gave her the key and asked her to move in and help take care of the house.
Of course she has to help Teacher Li, and she likes this house very much because there are many books here. The bookshelves occupy an entire wall, covering everything from ancient to modern times, Chinese and foreign.
Teacher Li said that she can read any book on the bookshelf, and she has indeed benefited a lot. Those books also help her a lot in writing. Last month's new book was suddenly favored by publishers and film and television companies, which is enough to prove everything.
.
Three days, seventy-two hours, and 150,000 words. For a writer like her whose speed is only a little over a thousand words per hour, it is really a very difficult task, but she has no choice but to fight!
From day, to night, to day again... in a flash, three days passed just like that.
Yun Miaoke's appearance after "coming out of confinement" was already a bit miserable.
His originally thin body looked even thinner, as if he was malnourished and would collapse if the wind blew.
Her long straight hair accentuates her small, palm-sized face, which is pale and has more obvious dark circles under her eyes.
But she was in good spirits, but it only looked like the last gleam of light before the oil lamp dried up.
"Yun Miaoke, believe in yourself, you can do it!" He finished organizing the document and sent it to the editor.
Soon, there was a reply, but the situation changed.
"Keke, the other party doesn't want to read the electronic version. They require you to bring the printed manuscript and go to the film and television company to discuss it in person."
"Now?" Yun Miaoke was caught off guard.
"Yes! You must arrive before nine o'clock, and I will give you the address!"
Yun Miaoke looked at herself in the glasses and then looked at the time. Oh my god, it was too late for anything. She didn't even have time to wash up!
Forget it, that’s it!
A few minutes later, an unkempt girl stood out on the street.
She was almost running at a crazy speed, weaving through large and small traffic flows. Because of the morning rush hour, the driveway was almost reduced to a parking lot, so she could only jump off the bus and run.
"Mr. Zhong, there is a traffic jam ahead, should we go around?" the driver asked respectfully.
"Hmm." The man sitting in the leather seat at the back hummed softly, his voice so low that it made people shudder.
Then, the car accident happened in an instant.
With a "bang", Yun Miaoke's body shook, and the manuscript in her hand flew into the sky.
