In the story, Edward Cullen heroically saves the beautiful girl again and again, and the back-and-forth affection between the two is exciting.
Especially in Port Angel, he learned that vampire Edward Cullen had the ability to "read minds", but Isabella Swan was unable to read by him. This is why he paid attention to Isabella Swan.
Swan reasons.
At that moment, the truth of those "pink mysteries" was finally revealed.
And as Isabella Swan continued to search, and with the appearance of another ethnic group, the Quileute tribe, she finally realized the identity of Edward Cullen little by little.
The two met in the jungle, and finally Isabella Swann, under the guidance of Edward Cullen, revealed his identity as a vampire!
Why Edward Cullen became a vampire and how many years he lived - these stories are also revealed bit by bit!
The two confirmed their relationship and went to school openly, arm in arm, becoming the focus of the whole school's attention.
Then the two went to the mountains on the Forks border, and Isabella Swan finally saw Edward Cullen in the sun.
This is what it says in the book, perfect like a sculpture, using all the perfect words imaginable to describe it.
At this moment, even Susan Miller, an "elderly girl" in her early forties who was called an "old witch" by the editor below, couldn't help but feel pink in her heart, which seemed to be sealed with cement.
Bubbles.
The story comes when Edward Cullen takes Isabella Swan to visit the Cullen family.
The Cullen family also made Susan Miller realize that there is a story in it!
As the plot progresses and a sudden accident occurs in the small town of Fox, the novel has finally reached its middle and late stages.
The foreshadowing that was laid earlier, that is, the first external plot conflict appeared.
She has read countless novels, but when Susan Miller saw a mysterious vampire appear and commit a crime, she couldn't help but become tense. She knew that this must be related to the subsequent plot, and it was also related to
The relationship between the male and female protagonists.
Sure enough, when Isabella Swann met the Cullen family for the second time, the culprit who caused casualties in the town and the strange way of death appeared, and they targeted the heroine. One of the vampires was also hunting
As long as he targets her, he will definitely eat her. The heroine was protected by the Cullen family and left, but the crisis has come.
A thrilling escape was undoubtedly a drama about a hero saving a beauty, but Susan Miller watched it with relish.
In the end, the heroine was saved and almost died, and the story ended here.
But a wonderful and mysterious world has taken root in Susan Miller's heart.
She knows that this is definitely just the beginning of this series, not the end. There are many elements still waiting to be revealed.
The female vampire named Victoria, the Quileute named Jacob, if there are no accidents, these should be werewolves.
"A human + vampire + werewolf love triangle story?"
Regardless of whether it is.
Susan Miller has been completely impressed by this fresh love story packed with magical elements.
Why is it called fresh?
Because this story, from the beginning to the end, except for a few rare kisses, there are not many indescribable words and pictures about a certain aspect. This is rare in the current film and television market and novels.
I didn’t use a certain word to attract attention.
The first thing she did after reading "Twilight 1" was to contact the author of the novel.
She eagerly wanted to know when "Twilight 2" would be published, and she eagerly wanted to know the follow-up plot.
Susan Miller finally understood why the editor below had red eyes - he stayed up late.
She thought, "This novel will definitely make waves, and it may not be able to be sold in men's circles. But don't forget that women are also an extremely large audience for novels, and even crazier!
The release of "Twilight 1" will satisfy these women's wild imagination about love, and they will definitely fall in love with this story of a lover who spans life and death!"
I stayed up until midnight to finish watching "Twilight 1".
As the editor-in-chief of the entertainment editorial department, there is no need to hold a meeting to discuss publishing matters before publishing a novel.
Susan Miller has the authority to publish three to five novels each year, printing 500,000 copies.
As soon as she arrived at the company, Susan Miller called the number of the author named Stephanie Xia.
The call was dialed.
Because she had stayed up for a few days and was getting older, Susan Miller's voice was slightly hoarse.
"Hello, are you Ms. Stephanie Xia? I am Susan Miller, editor-in-chief of Stic Entertainment Editorial Department."
"Hello, Ms. Susan, my name is Stephanie Xia."
Xia Yu's American pronunciation is very standard, but her voice is nice and young. When she hears it, she even sounds like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl.
This made Susan Miller couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "Excuse me, are you an adult?"
Because if she is still a minor, the actual person to contact should be Stephanie Xia’s parents, who are the legal guardians?
"I have reached adulthood, even over twenty-six years old, and I am fully capable of acting responsibly. Please rest assured, Ms. Susan."
At this moment, Susan Miller breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "I'm sorry to bother you. I'm making this call mainly because I want to communicate with Ms. Stephanie Xia about the publication of "Twilight".
Are you free now?"
Xia Yu smiled slightly, "Of course!"
The communication between Susan Miller and Xia Yu didn't take long and was full of useful information.
Xia Yu also tried his best to gain greater rights for the publication of "Twilight 1" during this phone call, such as publishing royalties. Generally speaking, royalties for newcomers in the industry range from 5% to 10%.
interval.
Xia Yu finally got 15% - there were two reasons why he was able to get such a high royalty.
The first reason is that "Twilight 1" went through the "green channel" of the publishing house, which means that this book is either supported by someone behind it. The second reason is that the number of novels published by Stic Publishing House has reached more than 300,000 copies.
The above writers contributed.
Since it is not the latter, this means that Stephanie Xia is not an ordinary writer.
Of course, the most important thing Susan Miller is willing to make concessions is the quality of "Twilight 1".
Susan Miller is very optimistic about this novel. And she also learned from Xia Yu that "Twilight 2" has been completed.
The prerequisite for the 15% royalties is naturally that Stic Publishing House will be chosen for the publication of "Twilight 2".
After the discussion was finally completed, the two also added each other's email addresses. Susan Miller sent a specific contract via email.
The content of the contract is roughly as follows: 500,000 copies of the first issue of "Twilight 1" will be printed, the price will be $5, and the royalties will be 15%.
Because stic Publishing House is headquartered in Washington, the signing time and location were finally agreed upon - Susan Miller went to Los Angeles in person to sign the contract with "Stephanie Xia".
Putting down the phone, Susan Miller called her assistant, "Book me the nearest flight from Washington to Los Angeles!"
The assistant was very surprised, 'The editor-in-chief seems to have not been on a business trip for several years?'
At the same time, I had a small meeting with the deputy editor below, "I'm on a business trip today, I'll probably come back tomorrow, and work as normal the day after tomorrow. I'm sorry, I have to put all the 'green channel' review tasks on you. Come back,
Invite you to dinner."
Her whole person is filled with "tenderness", and the deputy editor looks a little creepy. Is she in love? Is the iron tree blooming?
'But Susan is not a person who takes time off from work, dating, or, in other words, business or private matters?'
It wasn't until we talked about "Twilight 1" that the deputy editor realized, 'So, it's because of this book?'
When Susan Miller stepped out of Stic Publishing House, the review and grading of "Twilight 1" immediately caused an uproar in the Stic Entertainment editorial department. "S-level? New author, new book, first issue printed."
Five hundred thousand copies?”
"Is Susan crazy? Or does this book really have such charm!?"
The last time was in the "Deep Sea Series" three years ago.
The editor who had read this novel, his eyes were no longer red, but he was very excited and said,
"You can take a look at this novel. It's really beautiful - Edward Cullen is so handsome!"
No matter what happens to the Stic Entertainment editorial department, Susan Miller has already embarked on a flight from Washington on the eastern coast to Los Angeles on the western coast.
Being vigorous and resolute is engraved on this workaholic who is nearly forty years old, single and has only work in his life.
And when she stepped into the "Bankrupt Sisters Film and Television Company" and saw this low-level film and television company that she had never heard of, Susan Miller was a little stunned - the person who received her was a girl with an oriental appearance, who must be very...
pretty?
Susan Miller has seen a lot of oriental girls, of all ages, and occasionally watches some oriental fairy tales and martial arts movies and TV series. But what really makes Susan Miller think is that they are good-looking.
It is very rare to cross the race!
Until just last month, the popular "Black Moon Project · 1" was released, the oriental girl from the ancient oriental country's saint was too beautiful to be ordinary. She felt that maybe in the past few decades, this generation of oriental girls
One of the most beautiful people, right?
At that time, she paid special attention to the Instagram account of "The Saint of the Ancient Country", called Chengyun? Then she sighed that Chengyun's daily attire - with exquisite makeup, was not inferior to Eva Peron at all.
And when the oriental girl appeared in front of her, Susan Miller realized that there was someone else who was just as beautiful.
And this pretty one looked familiar to her. When had she ever praised the beauty of other oriental girls?
These two oriental girls are both beautiful, and they are beautiful in different directions.
She couldn't help but ask.
"You are so good-looking, and I think you look familiar. Oh, I'm sorry, this is definitely not a chat. My orientation is normal, but I really think you look familiar. Where should I have seen you? Or
An oriental artist who looks similar to you?"
"Also, the voice is a bit familiar. I wonder if we know each other?"
Susan Miller rarely "struck up" conversations with people so eloquently. She was really surprised by the temperament and appearance of the girl in front of her, "You work as a receptionist in this film and television company? Which university are you from?
Foreign students? Ancient Eastern countries?"
Within a month since the release of "Black Moon Project 1", some people in Europe and America have automatically adopted this new title for the country of China - "The Ancient Oriental Country!"
"Does it look familiar?" Xia Yu smiled slightly and did not answer. Instead, he answered another question, "Receptionist? Maybe?"
At present, Bankrupt Sisters Film and Television Company has indeed not recruited a suitable receptionist. She is both the boss and the receptionist——
Nothing seems wrong?
Along the way to the third floor of Bankrupt Sisters Film and Television Company, a fat lady in her early fifties was already sitting in the conference room.
Susan Miller said hello, but when she saw Xia Yu sitting directly at the main seat in the conference room, she looked confused.
Until Xia Yu stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, Ms. Susan, formally introduced, I am Stephanie Xia."
Susan Miller was stunned and asked, "Aren't you the receptionist of this film and television company?"
"The company has just started and there is no reception. I will act as a receptionist." Xia Yu shrugged and smiled, "I don't think Ms. Susan will feel that I and our company don't pay enough attention to our cooperation, right?"
"Of course not!"
Susan had also calmed down and had a slightly thicker smile on her face. 'Are you kidding me? The author personally received and entertained me. Isn't that enough attention?'
Yet Susan Miller is still a little shocked.
"No wonder I felt that the voice was familiar just now, but I thought - the author of "Twilight" should be a beautiful native girl, at least a white girl. It's not my discrimination, it's just that this is too disturbing
People are surprised!”
Susan Miller asked, "Are you Chinese? Mixed race? In "Twilight", was Isabella Swan based on yourself?"
"Chinese." Xia Yu smiled and patiently explained her confusion, "Not a mixed race, not a prototype, just a sudden inspiration?"
Xia Yu also introduced, "This is our company's legal counsel, Ms. Laura."
And when the signing of the contract gradually went into depth and Xia Yu's identity was revealed, or in other words, when Susan Miller saw the copyright certification of "Twilight 1", "Stephanie Xia"
The label is a pen name, and the real name is "Xia Yu".
An idea flashed in her mind, "I really...should have seen you before? This name is very familiar to me!"
Susan Miller really couldn't hold it back. On such a formal occasion, she turned on her phone and said.
"Excuse me for being rude, but I think if I don't figure this out, it's going to bother me for a long time!"
"I think I should have met you on some occasion this year, or even in the second half of the year, a very grand occasion!"
"If my memory has not been tampered with, oh, I mean, if there is no mistake - because you look so familiar to me!"
As she spoke, she started flipping through her phone.
