I have to say that these days, Taiwan Publishing House is very sincere in paying royalties.
Sun Quan sent the contract, and as soon as the other party received the contract, they paid 4,500 in advance for the first episode. Qinghe, who contacted Sun Quan, told him that the publisher would definitely deposit a royalties, but for the sake of
To reassure the author, the deposit fee will start from the second episode, and the second payment will not be paid until he submits the manuscript for the third episode.
Sun Quan had no objection to this.
He tried to ask Qinghe if he could publish two or three episodes at a time?
After all, he now has a lot of manuscripts on hand, and the free chapters published on Qidian are more than 200,000 words. If all of them are published, he will naturally earn more.
But Qinghe told him: "Not for the time being! Our publishing house has the rules of our publishing house. Any new book will be slowly released one episode after another to test the market's response first. If it sells
Okay, after about two or three episodes, the publishing speed will be accelerated. By then, you can only publish two or three episodes a month!"
Sun Quan had no choice but to follow their rules.
Fortunately, they paid the royalties for the first episode in advance, which instantly relieved the pressure in his life.
He decided to buy two decent autumn clothes to treat himself.
The old clothes in the closet were all old, firstly, and secondly...the styles and colors, from his current point of view, were really childish.
On October 6, after having lunch at Tangtang Pickled Fish Restaurant, Sun Quan cycled to the pedestrian street a few miles away, where there were many good clothing stores.
There is nothing to say about this book. No 2b shop clerk looks down on him, and he has no intention of pretending to be 13. He just wants to buy two better autumn clothes, nothing more.
What needs to be mentioned is that - when he just walked into a jeans store and was about to choose a pair of jeans, he suddenly received a phone call.
Caller ID: Little Apple.
It was a cute girl who sat behind him in his senior year of high school. We had a good relationship back then, and they would send text messages to each other during holidays.
But the last time I had a phone call... it was a long time ago.
Sun Quan was surprised to see that it was her who called. He immediately put down the pants he had just picked up, answered the phone, and subconsciously took a few steps towards the door of the store.
"Hello? Little Apple? Why did you think of calling me today? It's so rare! Haha."
When the call was answered, Sun Quan was a little happy.
"Xiao Quanzi! Let me ask you! Are you still in M city now? Huh?"
The female voice on the phone was very brisk and of course very young.
Sun Quan smiled and said, "Well, yes! I'm still in M city, what's wrong? Do you want to come over to play? Don't worry! If you come over, I will definitely receive you! I will take you to eat delicious food!"
In my memory, she was a greedy girl.
"No! I just started my internship now! How can I have time to hang out with you? Later! Later! I will definitely go there to hang out when I have the opportunity. Hehe, even if you don't want to receive me then, you can't! You just
Do not worry!"
"Then why are you asking me if I'm still in City M? Don't tell me you're just asking for fun!"
Sun Quan was a little speechless.
"Hehe, no, no! It's not me who is coming this time, but there is a beautiful girl who is coming to your City M for internship. She is my cousin. I heard that she is coming to your place, and I just remembered that your university is in City M.
No! I just want you to help take care of her! Hehe, this is an advantage for you! If you have the ability to chase her, I have no objection! Hehe, I'm afraid she won't like you at all! How about it?
?Can you help me with this?"
"Your cousin? Ha, beautiful woman?"
Sun Quan curled his lips.
Little Apple is cute and not ugly, but she has a round face. Do you want him to believe that her cousin is a beautiful woman? Add double quotes and he will believe it.
"Huh? Xiao Quanzi! Why do you seem to not believe me when I hear this tone from you?"
Sun Quan: "Ah? No, no! I believe it! I believe it! I even believe every punctuation mark you say!"
"Put me down! I can already hear your tone!"
After a pause, Little Apple suddenly said: "Yuan Shuiqing! Yuan Shuiqing from our next class, don't tell me that you don't know! My cousin is her! Can you tell your conscience, is she a great beauty? Ah? Hmm?
"
Sun Quan: "..."
At this moment, a tall and graceful figure suddenly flashed in Sun Quan's mind, as well as an extremely beautiful face.
Yuan Shuiqing, of course he knows! Even if he has more than ten years of rebirth memories, he has not forgotten this girl.
This girl is so beautiful!
With a figure like a Victoria's Secret supermodel, she is the most beautiful girl he has ever seen in real life.
She should have been the most beautiful among the girls in the high school department of her school back then. If their high school department had selected the school beauty that year, I believe many people would have voted for Yuan Shuiqing.
He always remembered that there were always some handsome or not handsome boys passing by the window of the next class on purpose, and every time these guys passed by the window of the next class, their eyes would always look in the window intentionally or unintentionally.
Sun Quan himself was once one of them.
They deliberately passed by the window of the next class just to catch a glimpse of Yuan Shuiqing.
Because of Yuan Shuiqing's existence, the aesthetic standards of boys in their generation were raised.
Later, Sun Quan lived until 2019, and naturally saw many female celebrities on the Internet, many domestic and foreign!
But in his heart, he always felt that Yuan Shuiqing was the most beautiful.
Those who are as good looking as her, but not as good as her in figure, and whose figure can be compared to hers, will definitely be inferior in appearance. Even if there are occasionally those who can compare with Yuan Shuiqing in all aspects, because of preconceptions, Sun Quan is the most beautiful in his mind.
The woman is still Yuan Shuiqing.
He is not timid.
But he never dared to try to pursue Yuan Shuiqing. When he was in high school, he occasionally met her on the road and he didn't even dare to look directly into her eyes.
correct!
At this moment, he suddenly remembered that in his previous life, it seemed that at this time, Little Apple called him and asked him to help take care of her cousin Yuan Shuiqing.
At that time, Wu Jing had not broken up with him yet.
That time, he declined Little Apple's request.
Men all have self-esteem!
Maybe Yuan Shuiqing didn't know him, but Yuan Shuiqing was the goddess in his dreams. When Little Apple called him, it was when his new book was on the market and he was very unsatisfied.
His self-esteem did not allow him to appear in front of Yuan Shuiqing with a downcast image.
Speaking of it now, that was already more than ten years ago. It had been too long. In his previous life, he declined Little Apple and did not go to see Yuan Shuiqing, so his memory about this period is a bit blurry.
At this moment, he suddenly heard Yuan Shuiqing's name again, and he suddenly remembered the phone call that had been buried in his memory.
"How's it going? Do you agree?"
Little Apple asked on the phone.
Sun Quan pursed his lips, restrained his divergent thoughts, and a smile appeared on his face, "Of course it's no problem! Okay! Don't worry! City M is my base, and since she is your cousin, I will definitely take good care of her.
Yes! By the way, how can I find her? Did you give me her mobile phone number? Did you tell her about me?"
