Wait until dawn, after breakfast, Lu Cheng called a "Black Tiger Spring Comprehensive Agency Service Company".
In less than an hour, someone from the agency came to Qingquan Villa.
A young manager came, wearing a suit and leather shoes, with meticulously combed hair, and a smile on his face. He said, "Mr. Lu, my name is Zhang Ji. I am happy to serve you."
Lu Cheng said: "I invited you here because I want you to register a company as my agent."
Zhang Ji smiled and said: "Registering a company is easy to say, but the steps are a bit complicated. You only need to sign the authorization agreement, provide your identity document and funds, and I will handle the rest for you."
Lu Cheng added: "In addition, I would like to trouble you again to help me find a manager to manage a start-up company. The requirements are not high, it can be a college student who has just graduated, preferably a female, and can do Internet marketing."<
/p>
"It's easy to say, I'll help you get it done within a month. What is the name of the company you want to register?"
"Xianshentang."
"How much is the registered capital?"
"One hundred million yuan."
"Hey, let's put it this way, the company is not small!"
"Don't let others look down upon you." In fact, the registered capital can be any amount, but others can check this amount. If your registered capital is too small, it will be considered that you are a skinny company and it is difficult to trust the company's products.
After Lu Cheng reached an agreement with Zhang Ji, he signed a licensing agreement and sent him away.
Jiang Qiuyun has completed the first draft of "Clouds Rise from the Sky Mountain", which has a total of 3.2 million words. To her, it is almost a "short story". Next, she will carefully revise it and strive to compress it to less than 2.5 million words. This is
It is a very arduous job. Most internet writers only like creative creations and do not like careful revisions. Especially, this is a history major. Simply revising it yourself is not enough. You have to ask others to review the manuscript, and you also need to check it again.
Historical annals to ensure the authenticity of key information.
During this period, Lu Cheng cannot remain idle. He is naturally the first reader and must put forward his own opinions and views.
Those friends who participated in the weekend literary salon were naturally the second batch of readers. Jiang Qiuyun invited senior brothers and sisters to try out the reading, provide opinions, and then revise it.
Two senior brothers and one senior sister, both with Ph.D.s in the Department of Literature, come to Qingquan Villa every weekend for good food and drinks, and are embarrassed to refuse Jiang Qiuyun's request for help.
Moreover, this is not over yet. There is a third group of readers coming next. They are Jiang Qiuyun’s mentor Xu Mingze and her father Jiang Fangsheng. Both of them are writers and ancient writing experts, plus a professor from the History Department of Qilu University.
Professor Zhang Hong, an expert of this level serving as a reviewer, can be regarded as Jiang Qiuyun’s great blessing.
It only took Jiang Qiuyun more than a month to write the book, but the revision process lasted a long time. It is estimated that it will take four or five months to complete, because several major experts are very busy and may not be able to provide feedback in time. After all, it is a book of more than 3 million words.
, can be read in the hands of young readers in one or two days, but for those who carefully review the manuscript, it will take at least ten days and a half to read it carefully. Just reading it is not enough, you have to read it one by one.
Analyze and put forward different opinions.
These professors are all time-tested people. They do not simply give general opinions, but open the document on the computer and start the modification software
Make detailed footnotes for each line and paragraph. This is a serious revision attitude...
In order to express her gratitude, Jiang Qiuyun gave each of her mentors Xu Mingze and Professor Zhang Hong a spiritual Daishan jade ornament. These Daishan jade ornaments were dug out from the ground of Taohua Valley by Lu Cheng and carved by Minghu Jade Workshop.
It is made into a beautiful ornament. Because it is rich in spiritual energy, playing with it regularly will help you maintain your health.
As a mentor, Xu Mingze happily accepted the gift and called Jiang Qiuyun over for careful guidance.
Professor Zhang Hong was a little surprised. He liked jade ornaments very much, so he quietly invited a friend who was proficient in jade trading to come to his home and let him see how much this purple-red jade was worth.
As a result, the friend couldn't put it down after seeing it, and said in an envious tone: "This is Daishan red sandalwood jade. It is very rare, and it is very pure, bright and shiny, and big. It weighs a pound, right?"
The value of money cannot be measured. Gold is valuable, but jade is priceless. It depends on how much you like it."
Zhang Hong was so happy that he not only revised it carefully, but also recommended it to two old friends, one of whom was Zhang Baiyu, a judge of the Mao Dun Literature Award.
Zhang Hong and Zhang Baiyu are from the same family and are cousins. They are both descendants of the Zhang family in Tongcheng. Their ancestor was Zhang Tingyu, the only Han minister in the entire Qing Dynasty who was worthy of enjoying the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
Zhang Ying, Zhang Tingyu, and Zhang Ruo'ao, three generations of their ancestors, served in the inner court, and were favored by the three emperors of Kang, Yong, and Qian.
The Zhang family, adhering to the ancestral precepts, has a prosperous literary style. Coupled with the prolific family in Tongcheng, Zhang Baiyu was influenced by it and loved to create when he was young. Later he became a nationally famous writer and the deputy director of the Mao Dun Literary Award jury.
.
Zhang Hong will recommend to Zhang Baiyu: "Cousin, please read this book when you have time. It has not been finalized and is being revised. The author Jiang Qiuyun is half of my disciples. She has written 8 books and five films have been filmed.
She has starred in movies and TV series, and is currently the leading female writer in the literary world. I wonder if your first prize has opened your eyes to consider being an online writer?"
Zhang Baiyu said: "Jiang Qiuyun? You mean Yun Ji? I am no stranger to her. She was among the top few in the last selection of the top prize. Now her reputation is getting more and more famous. As long as she continues to work hard, she has a good chance of winning the top prize.
Hope."
"Cousin, please try your best to help her fight for it!"
"I'll read the article first and then talk." These people cherish their feathers. If the article is good, they can help. If the article is not good enough, they will definitely not recommend it.
For a literary award like this, there are 15-18 judges, and not one person can always keep his word. But having someone help recommend it is better than having no connection at all.
Jiang Qiuyun's original intention was not to build a relationship. She had no idea that Zhang Hong would take the initiative to help.
A person's reputation is accumulated bit by bit. An author who has written eight books is different from a new author who has just debuted.
She doesn’t have to win the Mao Prize. Jin Yong and Qiong Yao have not won the Mao Prize. Are they inferior to the Mao Prize winners? Everyone has a title in their hearts. Whether they are true writers or not cannot be determined by a Mao Prize.
of.
Looking back, it has been close to 50 years since the Mao Prize was founded in 1981. By 2030, there have been almost 50 works. Among them, there are books like "White Deer Plain" that are well-known to everyone, but there are also many books that have very little impact and almost no one.
I personally know that the winner of the top prize is just like that. As a litterateur within the system, with the passage of time, he disappears in the long river of history._&
