Ren He put his cell phone back into his pocket with a smile on his face. To be honest, he was surprised that Zhou Wumeng was so fascinated by it, but it made Zhou Wumeng, a great literary figure, fascinated, and he became more confident in Kunlun.
Since Zhou Wumeng has been asking for more updates, his most important thing now is to write more about Kunlun. Anyway, Kunlun is not much different from serialized online novels. The Heavenly Punishment System only gives out tasks based on the royalties.
As a result, before I had written much all morning, Zhou Wumeng called again: "How much have you written?"
"5,000 words..." Ren He said, stunned for a moment.
"It doesn't matter, send it over first and I will review it for you," Zhou Wumeng said rationally and confidently.
If you want to read it, just say that you want to read it and help with the review... But Ren He still sent it to him... When Zhou Wumeng hung up the phone, he didn't forget to mention: "Hurry up and write the other ones, don't worry, your manuscript
Once it comes out, all copyright management and other matters will be left to Kyoto News, and I will never treat you badly."
Zhou Wumeng leaned back on the sofa and pondered. He didn't know why he suddenly had an impulse. Who didn't have a passionate dream of martial arts when he was young? He also had it. He even devoted a lot of effort to martial arts. However, domestic martial arts have not been seen for a long time.
Without the major works, his mind became cold.
By the way, this happened more than 20 years ago, right? At that time, he was a poor scholar and a small editor, but now he is the editor-in-chief of Kyoto Newspaper!
Zhou Wumeng walked outside the office and said to everyone: "I will adjust the layout tomorrow and change the entertainment section of the daily newspaper. I have a manuscript here, please put it in the layout."
Everyone was stunned, what kind of manuscript is so important? A young man stood up and said weakly: "Mr. Zhou... tomorrow will post about the upcoming release of Jiang Siyao's new album. Many people like to read this..."
"It's okay, why don't you just release an album? Do as I say," Zhou Wumeng said, then returned to the office and sent the manuscript to his subordinates.
A group of people gathered around a middle-aged editor: "Look, what is the manuscript that made Mr. Zhou even change the layout?"
When the middle-aged editor opened his mailbox, he was stunned for a moment: "Holy shit!"
"No way!"
"Martial arts novel!"
"Is it true or not, Mr. Zhou actually wants to change the entertainment version into a serialization of martial arts novels? Isn't this too exaggerated?"
The middle-aged editor stood up and coaxed people: "Go, go, go, all work, what a pile it is like here."
He sat down and began to review the manuscript. To be honest, he also wanted to know what kind of martial arts novel could allow Zhou Wumeng to make such an important decision. This was the Kyoto Daily News, and it had never serialized a novel before!
However, I heard that one of the most important modules of newspapers a few decades ago was novel serialization. Sometimes a slightly more exciting novel could increase newspaper sales.
But what time is it now, and the Kyoto Daily News is not an ordinary local newspaper, it is a representative...
However, just when the middle-aged editor began to review the manuscript, he fell into it instantly. This was very different from previous martial arts novels, and the method of plot advancement was very clever. The whole novel was majestic and truly reflected the greatness of the chivalrous man.
The feeling is coming!
At 10 o'clock in the evening, the middle-aged editor stretched himself, and the young editor on duty asked weakly: "Why are you leaving at this time today?"
"Oh, I'm fascinated by the novel..." As soon as he said it, the middle-aged editor was stunned for a moment. He said the wrong thing. He coughed twice quickly: "I'm reviewing the manuscript... Okay, please give it to the publishing department.
."
I wonder if Mr. Zhou has any further plot? The middle-aged editor thought about it while putting on his coat...
Ren He still didn't know that his original novel focusing on modern and ancient martial arts had been published by Zhou Wumeng in the Kyoto Daily News. Tomorrow, not only would countless people read Kunlun's martial arts novel, but it would also create a storm!
In the morning, countless newspapers were shipped out from the printing factory. When they were transported to various sales points, the dealer boss took them and read them first. When they saw the entertainment section, they were stunned: Why is there no entertainment section?
Already?
And at the top of the page where entertainment news should have been printed were two big characters "Kunlun"!
What is this? A martial arts novel? Why did the Kyoto Daily News start serializing martial arts novels? Isn’t it because there is no entertainment news to publish?
However, slowly, all of them became addicted to it. This martial arts novel was so different from the current ones! It was so good!
At this time, someone came into the bookstore to buy a newspaper: "Boss, give me a copy of the Kyoto Daily News!"
"Buy it quickly, young man. Do you want to bring two copies to your friends? Today's Kyoto Daily News has changed its edition. The entertainment section has been changed to martial arts novels. It's so good. I feel like it will be out of stock today!" the boss said excitedly.
"What novel is so good?" The young man who bought the newspaper stood in front of the counter, grabbed a newspaper, and turned to the entertainment section to read the novel the boss said. However, he couldn't move for a long time after reading it!
"Hey, hey, do you want to buy it?" the boss asked.
"Ah?" The young man woke up in surprise: "Buy, buy, buy! Come get 5 copies!" The young man took out 10 yuan and handed it to the boss.
"The price of the Kyoto Daily News has increased today," the boss said with a smile, "3 yuan a copy."
"When did it increase? Isn't it marked with a retail price of two yuan?"
"Don't look at it, I got the raise," the boss said cheerfully, "If you want it, no one wants it."
"Chengchengcheng, 3 yuan is 3 yuan, you are raising the price on the ground, boss, you are too shameless!" The young man muttered and took out another 5 yuan.
Just today, the Kyoto Daily News has been out of stock for the third time since its inception!
And unlike in the past, this time the Kyoto Daily News has reprinted it several times and still can't satisfy everyone's enthusiasm! Many people heard that the martial arts novels in the Kyoto Daily News today were very good, and they went to countless bookstores and newsstands, and they were all sold out!
They had no choice but to find a good friend to borrow it!
The middle-aged editor sat on the sofa in Zhou Wumeng's office with a look of emotion on his face: "Mr. Zhou, you are still awesome. When did we dare to think that our Kyoto Daily could have such sales? It has tripled!"
Zhou Wumeng laughed: "To be honest, I'm a little surprised. In fact, our culture is too lacking. There are too few things that people can use to entertain their spare time. Fortunately, I didn't put it in the modern and ancient martial arts.
!”
"Mr. Zhou, who is the author? We have to pay him the royalties, right? And... do you have a story behind it? Show it to me?" the middle-aged editor joked.
As a result, Zhou Wumeng looked melancholy: "I don't have any, that guy Ren He writes so slowly!"
In fact, the writing is not considered slow, but in the readers' minds, the author's updates are always few. What they want most is to read the entire novel in one go, and that will be enjoyable!
The middle-aged editor was stunned for a moment: "Ren He? The Ren He who wrote the Three Character Classic?! That junior high school student?"
