"I have poor self-control. Is it because of the game?"
Li Qing laughed at himself: "What should we do if there is flooding? Block or drain? I don't think this should be something that game companies need to consider."
Li Qing patted Jia Cunrui on the shoulder: "Just go ahead and do it."
Jia Cunrui originally thought that Li Qing would reprimand him, but he did not expect to receive support. This cheered him up and nodded: "I will definitely live up to your expectations."
After Jia Cunrui left, Ke Zhenhui timidly walked into Li Qing's office.
"Boss, the phantom search engine has been successfully developed. Do you think it will be launched online at a suitable time..." Ke Zhenhui said timidly.
There was no way he could do it. Six months ago, he promised that the search engine would be launched on time in three or four months. But now, half a year later, he came to report. This made him a little frightened, fearing that he would be scolded by the big boss.
"Oh, then let's arrange to go online in the next two days." Li Qing said without raising his head.
Ke Zhenhui was a little shocked and stammered: "Don't you say something?"
Li Qing raised his head and looked at Ke Zhenhui curiously: "Do I need to say something? Do you still need my encouragement?"
"No no no."
Ke Zhenhui said awkwardly: "It's just too unexpected. I originally thought you would scold me."
"If scolding was useful, I would have spoken long ago." Li Qing put the document in his hand aside and said with a smile, "Okay, go ahead and do your work. If you need my help after going online, just ask."
"Don't dare, don't dare, how can I trouble you, boss..."
Ke Zhenhui left feeling flattered, and his gratitude to his boss was like a torrential river...
Li Qing came to his senses and continued to type on the keyboard in front of the computer.
I just got a call from Bloomsbury Publishing House in the UK, urging me to publish the third volume of "Harry Potter", "The Prisoner of Azkaban".
Today, Li Qing plans to officially complete the third volume and send it to the publisher via email.
In addition, during the phone call, he also accepted Bloomsbury's invitation and prepared to travel to the UK and the United States to participate in his book launch.
This is the first time Li Qing has accepted an invitation from Bloomsbury Publishing House. He had been rejected several times before due to his busy schedule.
And now, after a lapse of several months, the influence of "Harry Potter" is increasing day by day internationally. Not only is the UK filled with a large number of "Harry Potter fans", but even the entire North America has fallen.
In the United States, Italy, Germany, Japan and other places, countless Harry Potter fans are looking forward to the arrival of different versions of "Harry Potter".
Li Qing felt that under this background, the time was ripe, so that he would not have to wait for a foreign publishing house to hold a book signing event and end up in the embarrassing situation of having few people available...
This time, Bloomsbury Publishing will publish Narcissus, the third volume in the Harry Potter series, "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" globally.
At the same time, "American Scholars Press" will also publish the first American version of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone". This is cooperation in the United States that was obtained through communication with Bloomsbury Press.
square.
In the US version of the book "Harry Potter", according to the agreement, Li Qing will still receive a 20% royalty rate.
English is divided into British English and American English. The two languages are basically the same, but there are big differences in customs and usage. Coupled with cultural differences and social surprises, in order to take care of American readers, it naturally needs to be divided into two.
to distinguish between versions.
In addition to the United States, "Harry Potter" language versions in Japan, Italy, Germany and other languages have also found local partners and have been put into production one after another.
It is foreseeable that in the near future, "Harry Potter" will be completely popular all over the world.
In fact, Li Qing expressed considerable surprise at being able to publish "Harry Potter" in the United States.
You know, because of the "Three-Body Problem", I was blacklisted by the US authorities.
In the American online community, all the words about "The Three-Body Problem" have been deleted, and the relevant information about the name Li Qing shows that "no such person has been found."
Li Qing once submitted "Harry Potter" to major publishing houses in the United States, but was rejected without exception. Later, it was by chance that he signed a contract with Bloomsbury Publishing House.
But this publishing house is affiliated to the United Kingdom.
This shows that the ban on oneself actually exists in the United States.
But now, the ban seems to have been lifted?
You know, "American Scholars Press" is the largest children's book publisher in the United States and even the world, and its company registration location is in the United States...
Maybe the United States still doesn't know that Leesin is the author of "The Three-Body Problem"?
Li Qing didn't believe that the United States would not pay attention to this, so he personally asked Barry, the editor-in-chief of Bloomsbury Publishing House, about this matter on the phone.
Barry's answer made Li Qing suddenly realize.
It turns out that with the arrival of the new millennium, the quadrennial election in the United States is approaching. Two months later, in January 2000, the preselection of the US President will begin.
In order to be re-elected, the current President Kennedy is engaged in busy election planning and has no time to deal with trivial matters.
In addition, "Harry Potter" is the general trend, and it is a big IP that is surrounded by countless readers and sought after by countless Hollywood film and television production companies. In order not to offend these citizens who hold votes, Kennedy relaxed his words about the past of Qinglian Sword Fairy.
Only then can those things disappear like smoke.
The most important thing is that Li Qing now holds many titles such as "China's Olympic Bid Ambassador and United Nations Peace Ambassador"...
After thinking about this, Li Qing felt very comfortable and immediately agreed to Barry's request to travel to the United Kingdom and the United States to participate in the third part of "Harry Potter" and the American version of "Harry Potter"
Book signing event for the first part.
The third part of "Harry Potter", "Prisoner of Azkaban", has been completely finished. All Li Qing has to do now is to check for typos and individual grammatical errors. After a while, he finished sorting it out and sent the email to
Bally.
Obviously, half a world away in London, England, people from Bloomsbury Publishing had received the news in advance and were waiting in front of their computers.
As soon as the email was sent, Li Qing's phone rang, and Barry excitedly reported to Li Qing the news of receiving the email.
After hanging up the phone, Li Qing pondered for a moment, then took out the key, stood up, opened a set of safes behind him, and took out a stack of thick A4 papers.
If you look carefully, you will see that everything on it is densely packed with musical notations and lyrics.
"What song should I choose?"
Li Qing stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the lyrics sheet in his hand, flipping through page after page, not knowing what to do.
He is preparing songs for his second album,
An album can contain up to three to fifteen songs, and the A4 paper in Li Qing's hand must be more than twenty...
Every song is written by his own hand.
Every song is one that the music world is flocking to.
Each song can instantly make an unknown grassroots singer famous.
But now, Li Qing has these precious treasures, but he is full of tangles and is trapped in a difficult choice...
Oh, maybe, this is what is called being in the midst of blessings and not knowing the blessings!——
