Chapter 14 Suddenly Fire
Su Xiaozhou is quite good at playing. Her rational use of her appearance should attract a lot of popularity for "Fighting Break the Sky".
Lu Changming also had similar ideas. Of course, he did not want to attract traffic for "Three Body" but wanted to gain some male god value.
There are no good things.
However, Lu Changming had never played Douying and didn't know how to operate. He was not in a hurry, thinking about letting Su Xiaozhou shoot himself in the future.
After packing up the dishes, Lu Changming turned on the computer, logged into the World Tree website, and saw the situation of "The Three-Body Problem".
He was a little surprised when he saw this, because the number of clicks on "Three-Body Problem" exceeded 10,000 and there were hundreds of comments, which was rare in the World Tree website with a low popularity.
Lu Changming was busy reading the comments, almost all of them were positive.
"It's so exciting that I don't want to do it anymore - a frustration from AI developers of artificial intelligence."
"It was so shocking after reading Wei Xi's big comment, but the ending was too sad."
"I agree with Chang Ye Weixi's view that "Three-Body Problem" will be popular. This is the pinnacle of domestic science fiction literature. If it is not popular, I will eat it!"
…………
Most of the comments mentioned a person: The long night is not hopeful.
Lu Changming suddenly thought of Lin Weixi. As a literary girl, Lin Weixi is also passionate about science fiction literature and has published his own works, perhaps having a certain popularity in the circle.
He flipped through the comments and locked in a forum called "Science Fiction World", where many readers came from.
Lu Changming directly searched the Science Fiction World Forum.
This is a forum with more than 500,000 members, mainly aimed at science fiction fans, providing communication, writing, and writing services.
Today's hot post has been topped off, with the title: A work that may shock the domestic science fiction literature community.
This title is exaggerated and not everyone dares to take it.
Lu Changming clicked and saw that the poster was "Chang Ye Weixi", and his avatar was a book that was opened, which was very stylish.
This Changye Weixi is also an administrator of the forum.
She introduced the Three-Body Problem in detail in her post and listed three major advantages.
First, portraying human beings extremely exquisitely.
Second, it has changed the perspective of human beings looking at the universe.
Third, it broadens the readers' horizons.
Lu Changming nodded secretly, what is professional? This is called professional.
He had already thought that Chang Ye Weixi must be Lin Weixi. She probably discovered that "The Three-Body Problem" was published online, so she came to help promote it.
Looking at the reply again, it was as many as 1,000 floors, which was really amazing.
"Weixi is here, take a photo in the front row!"
"Weixi is such a strong recommendation, a must-read!"
"I envy the author of "The Three-Body Problem". I remember Wei Xi only recommended Vanal's "Silent Universe" by "Isn't it?"
I have to say that Lin Weixi is very popular in the Science Fiction World Forum.
After thinking about it, Lu Changming sent Lin Weixi a WeChat message: "Student Lin, thank you."
"No thanks, I just don't want the "Three-Body Problem" to be covered in dust, it has nothing to do with you."
Still, it's cold.
Lu Changming didn't care either, so he opened the World Tree website again and started interacting with readers.
Not long after, he received a call.
When I picked it up, there was a strange voice opposite me: "Is it Mr. Changming? I am the editor of World Tree. I will find yours based on the number you left in the background."
Editor of the World Tree?
Lu Changming smiled: "It's me, is there anything wrong?"
"Mr. Changming, after discussions from our editorial department, we decided to officially sign the "Three-Body Problem". I wonder what your intended price is?"
This is quite direct and very anxious.
Lu Changming knew in his heart that although he published "Three-Body Problem" on the World Tree website, he did not officially sign the contract, and all copyrights are still in his hands.
"The Three-Body Problem" suddenly became popular in the science fiction circle, attracting the attention of the editorial department.
The editorial department is here to sign the contract quickly.
"I don't ask for a high price, but I hope to hold the copyright of publishing, adaptation, and film and television copyright in my own hands." Lu Changming also acted directly. He was not arrogant or greedy for money, but afraid.
I am afraid that the Three-Body Problem will be destroyed by capitalists.
In the future, "The Three-Body Problem" will become popular across the Internet. Maybe some big prizes will be won, which will attract the jealousy of many capitalists.
If the copyright is not in your own hands, the World Tree will sell it casually for money, can the Three-Body Problem be safe?
"This...is probably inappropriate. We sign a contract and sign a copyright. The copyright is the most basic. Our magazine is just going to publish." The editor was a little confused. Isn't the other party a newbie? Why did he ask for treatment from the master at the beginning?
"What about the adaptation and film and television copyright?"
"It's too early to say this now. "The Three-Body Problem" is currently in the stage of electronic serialization, and even magazine serialization has not been carried out." The editor said softly and wanted Lu Changming to be a newbie.
"Then sign the contract for electronic serialization first." Lu Changming is not a fool, because he knew that "The Three-Body Problem" had a lesson.
In the parallel world, the copyright of "Three-Body Problem" was sold at a low price, and later it was changed to a junk movie, and it was stopped even after it was released.
Lu Changming must not let "The Three-Body Problem" follow the old path, and even if it doesn't make money, it must keep the copyright.
Money really doesn't matter, there are rich women and sisters anyway.
"Your editorial department can discuss it slowly, and I can sell the copyright to you, but I hope to hold the copyright of adaptation and film and television in my own hands." Lu Changming said nothing more.
The editor had no choice but to hang up first.
Suhang, World Tree Magazine.
This is a magazine with a history of decades. It is located on the thirteenth floor of the book building. It has a total area of more than 300 square meters and has multiple departments.
At this moment, several editors in the editorial department were talking about it, sometimes frowning and sometimes anxious, obviously a little annoyed.
The editor-in-chief who called Lu Changming just now was also present. His name was Jiang Dong, and he was a veteran editor-in-chief.
"The popularity of "Three-Body Problem" is getting higher and higher. I contacted my friend from the Science Fiction World Forum. He said that the post was the most popular post in recent years, and it was definitely not something that Chang Ye Weixi's influence could reach." Jiang Dong took a sip of water, feeling a little happy and depressed.
World Tree Magazine and Science Fiction World Forum are in a cooperative relationship. Both are bigwigs in the science fiction literature and often communicate with each other.
"The Three-Body Problem is indeed extraordinary. Even if the book is not popular, the laws of the dark forests must be popular. We can make a fortune by just adding fuel to the fire." Another editor analyzed.
"The law of the dark forest is too artistic. It is not boring. It can hit the hearts of readers." A female editor said with dark circles. She had finished reading "The Three-Body Problem" in one breath, but she was still unsatisfied.
At this moment, the door opened and an old man wearing gold-rimmed glasses walked in. He was in his sixties, but he was in good spirits, and his steps were firm while walking, and he was very scholarly.
"Editor-in-Chief." Everyone hurriedly said hello.
"I heard that this hit product has been released?" The old man was named Liu Changqian, who is the editor-in-chief of World Tree Magazine and is well-known in the publishing industry.
If there are any major events in the literary world, they will basically invite him.
"Yes, we have probably read that book. It's not simple. Both the plot and the writing skills are first-class. The most important thing is the brand new theory and setting of the universe, which is eye-catching and creepy." Jiang Dong responded, "I just called the author to request the signing, but he refused to release the adaptation and film and television copyrights. Our practice is to sign it as soon as you sign."
"Then sign the electronic copyright and the magazine serial copyright first. As for adaptation and film and television, it's too early. Maybe this book will be a flash in the pan." Liu Changqian directly ordered, with a calm expression.
As a big shot in the publishing industry, he has never seen any storms?
A work that suddenly appears may suddenly become silent, and maybe it will be silent next month?
The adaptation and film and television copyright are really too far away.
This is a common problem for newcomers. If you write a pseudonym, you fantasize about thanking your parents at the Nobel Prize in Literature.
"I understand." Jiang Dong nodded, "Editor-in-Chief, do you want to read "The Three-Body Problem"? We have integrated the content and can post it on your phone."
"Next time, I will go to the capital to participate in a Writers Association event tomorrow. You can decide for yourself. If you are very popular, please push "The Three-Body Problem" quickly. Don't let it cool down if you put it on." Liu Changqian waved his hand, completely in a business tone.
"yes."
Dongyang City Literary District.
Lu Changming exercised on the balcony and received another call from the editor of World Tree, and they agreed to sign part of the contract first.
This is actually not uncommon. Many bigwigs in the traditional literary circle hold their own copyrights or have the right to decide, so it is impossible to sign them as soon as they are signed.
But a newcomer like Lu Changming has no influence, so the editorial department will naturally not treat him well. He signs a lot at a time, and buys vegetables like a lot, which is large and cheap. [This book is also (smile)]
After chatting with the editor for a few words, Lu Changming died - as long as the adaptation and film and television copyright is in his own hands, how can the World Tree do whatever it takes.
As soon as he hung up the phone, Su Xiaozhou rushed out in a hurry and laughed loudly: "Haha, I'm obviously angry!"
She held up her cell phone to show Lu Changming. The above was the shaking shadow she had just taken. In just one hour, she actually gave 50,000 likes and more than 3,000 comments.
"Damn, is it alive? My grandfather is in peace."
"Is it so cute, is it a female writer? The title of "Fighting Break the Sky" is very novel and interesting when you hear it, so go and read it now!"
"Come on Qiqi, I will give you my living expenses right away!"
Su Xiaozhou is indeed popular again, it’s good to be beautiful.
"Obviously, many people have gone to watch "Fighting Break the Sky" and call me the Lord of the Traffic in the future!" Su Xiaozhou was so happy that he twisted his waist and sang the song: "Is this the excuse for you to break up? If you want to do it again..."
Lu Changming nodded. When many male netizens saw that the female writer had written a book, they immediately rushed to read it. "Fighting Break the Sky" must have been very popular.
Just as my "Three-Body Problem" became popular, and together with "Fighting Break the Sky", the style of the writing and style are blooming.
Chapter completed!
