"Tony, I kind of regret asking you to write that book for me!" Maxi suddenly said to Tangning when the two were drinking.
"What's wrong? You think my writing is not good?" Tangning asked with a smile.
Maxi waved her hands quickly and said: "That's not the case, and on the contrary, it's because Tony you wrote so well that it caused trouble to me!"
"Troubled? What trouble?" Tang Ning asked in confusion.
"Maybe it's because Tony you write so well, or maybe it's because some people think my experience is very interesting, so after Tony your article "Resurrected Soldier" was published, people often came to my home to talk to me.
The experience of losing my memory, especially a doctor named Dave, it is obvious that he really wants to understand what happened to my amnesia and recovery of memory, but I really don’t want to understand now, anyway, I am almost
He's so annoyed!" Maxi complained.
After hearing what was going on, Tangning burst into laughter and said, "Paul, in my opinion, this should be considered your celebrity effect!"
"But the problem is that I don't want to be such a celebrity! What I want most now is that no one will bother me!" Maxi replied with a wry smile.
Tangning advised: "Actually, Paul, you don't have to worry too much. After the heat of this matter has passed, no one will bother you." Then she added: "Well, it's hard to say that about Dr. Dave.
After all, he is not just joining in the fun, but wants to do medical research."
"Well, helping the doctor is considered a good deed!" Maxi said helplessly, then changed the subject and asked: "By the way, Tony, how are you preparing for your election?"
"It's not bad. Apart from writing your article "The Soldier Resurrected from the Dead", I've been busy with this recently!" Tang Ning replied casually.
"Can I choose it?" Maxi asked.
Tangning shook her head and replied, "I don't know about that. After all, we are just a small party!"
As soon as he got home after returning from Maxi's house, Heidi came over and said to him: "Deanna has been waiting for you for a long time!"
"Deanna? What is she doing here? Shouldn't she be taking care of her coffee shop at this time?" Tangning asked in surprise.
Heidi shook her head and replied: "I don't know, but the look on her expression doesn't seem to be a good thing!"
"Okay, I'll go ask." Tang Ning replied casually.
When they arrived at the living room, Deanna asked Tangning with a sullen face, "Teacher, why did you write like this?" She said and handed over a copy of "City Newspaper."
Tangning picked it up casually and saw that it was "Crazy Oil Painting", and then replied in confusion: "What did I write?"
"See for yourself!" Deanna said coldly.
Tangning patiently took a look and was immediately confused, because the "Crazy Oil Painting" serialized in this issue of the newspaper was completely inconsistent with her outline. Her original plan was to expose the scam, but now she just couldn't let it go.
No wonder Deanna is so angry.
So Tangning immediately replied: "I'm sorry, Deanna, I don't know what's going on. Because I've been too busy recently, so I only wrote the beginning of this "Crazy Oil Painting" and then continued
I gave the outline to a ghostwriting friend, but the plot of this issue is completely inconsistent with my outline. Let’s go and ask Melissa what’s going on now!”
After hearing what Tang Ning said, Deanna's expression softened slightly, and then she followed Tang Ning to Melissa's house in a carriage, but she was not at home. She was said to have gone to the newspaper office, and Tang Ning happened to be going to the newspaper office as well. After all, she still had to modify the plot.
Through newspapers.
When she arrived at the newspaper office, Tangning was surprised to find that Melissa was arguing with Levine, and the content of the argument was related to this issue of "Crazy Oil Painting". Melissa asked: "Editor, why is this issue of "Crazy Oil Painting"
"The content is different from what I sent you?"
"You don't need to worry about this. Didn't I pay you all the royalties?" Levin replied with a cold face.
"I wrote the novel not just for the royalties, but also to expose this scam. And when you did this, did you ever think about Mr. Tangning?"
Before Melissa could finish her words, Tangning loudly said, "That's right, Levin, what's going on here?"
At this time, the two people who were arguing realized that Tang Ning and Deanna had walked in. Melissa quickly explained to Tang Ning: "Mr. Tang Ning, today's issue of "Crazy Oil Painting" was not written by me. I followed your outline exactly.
written."
"I know Melissa, this has nothing to do with you!" Tangning reassured, then looked directly at Levin without saying a word.
Seeing Tangning like this, Levin stood up helplessly and said, "Tony, can I talk to you alone?"
Tangning thought for a moment, then nodded and agreed, "Okay." Then she turned to the two of them and said, "Melissa, Deanna, please go out and wait for me!"
After the two of them went out, Tangning asked Levin, "Levin, can you talk now?"
Levin poured Tangning a cup of coffee, and then said softly: "Tony, I originally planned to tell you yesterday, but I didn't expect that there were too many things in the past two days, and I didn't make time for it."
"Then tell me now!" Tangning said solemnly.
Levin nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, yes, yes, don't I have to tell you now? In fact, this matter is very simple. Someone paid a large sum of money to modify the ending of "Crazy Oil Painting". I
I know Tony that you are busy lately and you definitely don’t have time, so I asked Sloan to write a paragraph."
"Who gave you the money?" Tangning asked with a frown.
"Don't worry about this Tony, but don't worry, I've already prepared your share for you!" He said, taking out a wad of money from the drawer and handing it over.
Tangning glanced at it and found that there were hundreds of dollars, but she did not take it. Instead, she asked, "Levin, you changed the ending of "Crazy Oil Painting" just for the money?"
Levine replied disapprovingly: "Yes, I did the math and found that the money is much more than the normal plot, so why should you let go of the money you got?"
"But have you forgotten the purpose of my writing "Crazy Oil Painting"?" Tangning asked while suppressing her anger.
PS: I was visiting Longkong today and found out that Canghai actually used a trumpet account to open a book "I Want to Quit the Jianghu at the Beginning" at the starting point. Unfortunately, it has been blocked.
In fact, I am not surprised by this ending. After all, the danger of writing a Hong Kong underworld novel at the starting point is too great. What makes me depressed is that I found out too late. In fact, I quite like Cang Hai's "Rebirth: Prosperity", and I also wrote a semi-fanfic
