Chapter 16 Correct Use of Signed Author Groups
Su Xi didn't know Cui Geng's psychological activities.
At this moment, she was tasting the snacks in front of her.
Spiced beef jerky, strawberry chocolate donuts.
The taste is really good, much better than what is sold outside.
After eating one piece, Su Xi wanted to get it, but she didn't get it.
“Huh?”
Su Xi opened her eyes and saw Cui Geng coming over at some point and took away the jerky and donuts.
"This is mine!"
She stared at the snacks she took away, determined to defend her snack status.
"This is the late-night snack I prepared for you, not for you to eat now."
Cui Geng shook his head and packed it in a glass lunch box, saying, "It's 10 o'clock in the evening to 60,000 or 70,000 in the morning. If you only eat one meal, you will definitely be hungry, so I'll make you some snacks to satisfy your hunger temporarily, especially beef jerky, which is very motivated after eating."
“…”
Su Xi looked at the other party taking it away, a little helpless, then changed the topic: "Have you agreed with Zhang Ning?"
"Yeah, the agreement is settled."
Cui Geng nodded, looked up at her, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Thank you sister."
Without the help of the other party, it is likely that it would not be possible for my own book to be written. It is not that the quality is not good, but that it involves a big author on the ceiling of the website, and the editor does not want to take this risk for a new book.
"Why do you thank me?"
Su Xi was a little surprised, then reacted and shrugged: "You cook for me every day, I can't give you no reward at all, right?"
“Cooking is just a trivial matter.”
Cui Geng shook his head. He didn't cook for Su Xi alone. He just cooked more when cooking for himself, and did not cost much.
"This is a trivial matter."
Su Xi said casually: "Don't think too much. If you really want to thank me, just try to write this book well, so that our efforts for the past month and a half will not be wasted, right?"
“I will work hard.”
Cui Geng said seriously.
Not only can the more than a month of hard work not be wasted, but more importantly, he does not want to disappoint the other party.
“What are you going to eat today?”
Cui Geng changed the topic: "After dinner, I'm going to write, I feel that I want to write very much now."
"Just thinking at the beginning."
Su Xi shook her head disapprovingly: "When I was very interested at the beginning, I wanted to write every day, but after a while I felt bored, typing became a very painful thing."
"Will this happen?"
Cui Geng was surprised: "How did the sister persist until now?"
"The royalties are the driving force."
Su Xi shrugged: "As long as the manuscript fee is enough, writing is a painful and happy thing. The process is very painful, but when I issued the manuscript fee, I felt that all my efforts were not in vain. In this way, I naturally have the motivation to continue writing."
Manuscript fees are the driving force for commercial writing.
This is also the reason why she started to show off her bad luck later on...
All financially free, the attractiveness of manuscript fees has been greatly reduced, and the manuscript fees earned by the new book are even less than the "finished payment" of the previous books, so naturally I won't take it too seriously.
It is because of the bottom line of conscience of a professional writer that she barely maintains daily updates, and does not update every week like some writers...
Of course, this realm is still too far away from Cui Geng, and it is not something worth showing off.
"Is the royalty fee?"
Cui Geng touched his chin and thought: "It sounds pretty good."
He has no need for royalties, his family is still wealthy, and his parents have given him pocket money and living expenses, and he does not limit his consumption and some hobbies. Therefore, although he has no money, he is not short of money...
The royalties are not very attractive to him.
However, it is quite interesting to think about how to make money by writing books by yourself, and it is also a good achievement.
“What to eat for dinner?”
Cui Geng asked.
"Home-cooked food is fine, I can do it, not picky about food."
Su Xi shook her head and shook her long ponytail.
She is really not very picky about food, and she likes to eat as long as it tastes good.
"Cola chicken wings, fried pork slices of oyster mushrooms, cold bean curd, rice."
Cui Geng thought for a while and asked, "Is this OK?"
"Yes, no problem."
Su Xi nodded repeatedly, making it seem like she was cooking.
"Then sister, go back and write quickly, and then ask you to have a meal after you finish it."
Cui Geng said.
"Okay!"
Su Xi agreed, then turned around and went back to write.
Before leaving, she wanted to take away the snacks "by the way", but Cui Geng held down her paws that were ready to move.
"Sister, be careful when typing. This is what you taught me."
Cui Geng looked at her seriously.
“…”
Su Xi was caught and died of a slight social life. She quickly retracted her claws and left in a hurry.
...
Dinner starts at 7:00 pm.
I had a little late today, but Su Xi didn't feel hungry because she ate a lot of snacks in the kitchen in advance. Unfortunately, I didn't grab a handful of beef jerky before being discovered...
“My favorite is Coke chicken wings.”
Su Xi put a piece of chicken wings in a bowl, then pressed her head to start.
“…”
Cui Geng glanced at her and said nothing.
Before, when I was hand-rolled noodles, braised chicken, spicy shredded pork, spicy pot, fish-flavored shredded pork, braised eggplant, sweet and sour pork ribs, sweet and sour tenderloin, spicy fish, Kung Pao chicken, garlic crayfish, sauce-flavored pork ribs, braised pork ribs stewed potatoes..., you also said so.
Cui Geng could clearly feel that as they spent this period of time together, the situation of the two getting along became more and more casual.
At the beginning, Su Xi was very polite to come over for dinner and could dress up simply. Now she doesn’t care about this anymore. She came straight in a hoodie, casual pants, and slippers.
This is a good time to get along.
Cui Geng felt that it was the case when getting along with good friends. It was too reserved and polite, and it would be meaningless.
"Ding Ding Ding."
At this moment, Cui Geng's cell phone suddenly rang.
He picked it up and took a look, and said, "Sister, Zhang Ning invited me to join the contracted author group. Is this useless?"
"It's useful for a newcomer like you."
Su Xi thought for a while and said, "If you encounter something you don't understand, you can consult the authors of Tiantianshui Group in the group. They have some knowledge of everything except writing articles. Of course, the premise is that you should not be like them, as this will make you not have enough time and energy to improve the plot."
"Besides writing?"
Cui Geng was a little surprised: "Don't they write articles?"
"Write it."
Su Xi shrugged: "Not only do they write articles, they are also very passionate and inspiring. They often say that they want to change their lives. As long as they can't write, they will write to death. Either they die young or have a good time at a young age. Then if you ask them how many words they write a day, they will tell you... two thousand a day."
Cui Geng:???
I heard the feeling before, and then... I finished the inspirational update for two thousand every day? What about the trouble?
"I'll give you some advice."
Su Xi said: "It's enough to block the contracted author group. If you have any questions, please untie it. Then grab a few active people and say a few big shots. They will answer your questions enthusiastically and continue to block them after asking... This is the correct usage of the author group."
"Understood."
Cui Geng suddenly realized, then clicked agree and entered a group chat called "Qihang Urban Group Group". Seeing that the group was chatting enthusiastically, he subconsciously clicked the group message setting to avoid disturbance.
If you block it... don't worry, he will understand it first.
When I returned to the group chat interface, I saw someone @welcome me, and at the same time said: "There are big guys joining the group again, the group status is -1".
Then there are a series of repeaters below.
Cui Geng wanted to say hello, but when he saw that their chat speed exceeded his reaction speed, he immediately lost interest in saying hello and blocked the group chat directly.
After pondering for a few seconds, he searched the group members and found a group member named "Western Wind". The other party's avatar was black and white, and it should be invisible or offline.
After hesitating, Cui Geng decided to apply to add a friend and planned to thank the other party.
After applying, there was no reply, Cui Geng didn't care. He put his phone aside and started eating.
If you don’t have a meal quickly… you will be finished by the sister opposite!!!
