Rebirth of Entertainment All-rounder

The next morning, Lu Li did not go to class after his morning exercise. Instead, he took the bus to the city, and then took a taxi to the "friend" tea house that Zhao Wenkui mentioned.

When he arrived at the place, Lu Li called the other party and soon saw a middle-aged man wearing glasses and a suit who was somewhat elegant coming out of the "Friend" teahouse and looking around.

Lu Li greeted him and asked, "Are you Editor Zhao from Huaxin Publishing House?"

Hearing the voice, the middle-aged man looked at Lu Li, with a bit of curiosity, and said, "Yes, I guess you are the recently famous Lu Li. I kept you waiting for a long time."

When Lu Li heard this, he quickly waved his hand: "It's not that famous, and I just arrived."

"Okay, let's not be polite here, let's go in." After hearing Lu Li's words, Zhao Wenkui put his arm around Lu Li's shoulders and said with a mouthful of Beijing movies.

Lu Li saw the other party's behavior and knew that this was a lover who looked elegant but was actually a bit bold, so he couldn't help but feel a little more favorable to him.

Zhao Wenkui had already booked a private room, so he led Lu Li directly to the private room and sat down. A waiter brought a cup and made Lu Li a cup of tea.

"Come on, have a taste. This is the signature tea of ​​'Friend' Tea House. It is only available here and cannot be drunk elsewhere." After Lu Li sat down, Zhao Wenkui did not get straight to the point and talk about signing the contract. Instead, he invited Lu Li

Drink tea.

Lu Li smiled slightly when he heard this, picked up the tea cup in front of him and took a sip. He felt a cool feeling slowly penetrate into his throat. He squinted his eyes and enjoyed it for a while before praising: "Good tea!"

Hearing Lu Li's praise, Zhao Wenkui's eyes lit up, he looked at Lu Li and asked, "Why, my little brother is so good at this?"

Seeing Zhao Wenkui like this, Lu Li didn't know that Zhao Wenkui was a tea drinker, so he said, "That's not true, but I know a little bit about him."

"Oh, I'm not afraid of little brother's jokes. I'm not interested in tobacco or alcohol at all. I just want to drink some tea." Zhao Wenkui showed a little disappointment on his face. After finishing speaking, he picked up the tea cup in front of him and took a sip.

Squint your eyes and enjoy.

Seeing this, Lu Li didn't rush him and took another sip of tea.

After Zhao Wenkui opened his eyes again, he looked at Lu Li with an apologetic look and said, "I'm sorry, I got off topic when I talked about what I like. I called you here today to sign a contract. Come, take a look at the contract."

As he spoke, Zhao Wenkui handed over a contract that had been prepared.

Lu Li took the contract and opened it to read. In fact, Lu Li was most annoyed by contracts because he couldn't understand them and there were so many clauses. Lu Li had already experienced this when he signed a contract with Lang Di last time.

With experience this time, Lu Li only looked at a few key points. After seeing that there were no problems, he finally looked at the royalty income in detail, then nodded and said, "There is nothing wrong with the contract."

Hearing what Lu Li said, Zhao Wenkui also smiled: "Then let's sign it now."

Lu Li naturally had no objection. After signing all the places where he was supposed to sign, he handed it to Zhao Wenkui.

After taking it, Zhao Wenkui saw that there was no problem, so he said: "Actually, I should treat my little brother to dinner today, but the publishing house still has many things to do, and I guess there won't be much time. This..."

When Lu Li heard what the other party said, he quickly interrupted: "It's nothing. There will be many opportunities for cooperation in the future. There are many opportunities. If the manuscript fee comes down another day, I will ask Editor Zhao."

"Okay, let's decide now. I have to rush back to the publishing house as soon as possible to finalize the first printing of "The Condor" and strive to publish "The Condor" as soon as possible." Zhao Wenkui quickly took over the conversation after hearing this.

"Okay, Editor Zhao, you are busy, let's take our leave now." Lu Li also hoped that the previous content of "The Condor Shooting" could be published as soon as possible and be seen by more people.

The two had a pleasant conversation and walked outside together.

"By the way, the publishing house originally planned to hold a book signing, but since our publishing house has only published some traditional literature books in the past, we have no experience in this area, so we haven't made a decision yet. I don't know about you.

Do you have such a wish?" To Lu Li's surprise, they had already left the "Friends" teahouse, and Zhao Wenkui suddenly stopped and said this to Lu Li.

Lu Li was really stunned when he heard this. You didn't mention this matter at all when you just signed the contract, and now you're talking about it after the talks are over. I'm just waiting for you to open your mouth and want to hold a book signing.

Of course, Lu Li didn't show anything on the surface, but asked doubtfully: "Well, I didn't know you had such an idea, so I didn't think about it. Of course, I would prefer it if there could be a book signing event."

I'm happy, this can also improve my reputation."

After listening to Lu Li's words, Zhao Wenkui said: "Actually, the main reason why I didn't mention this matter is that our publishing house has never held such an event before. Just like publishing online novels this time can be said to be a test of the water. If it sells well, we will do it in the future."

More online novels will be published in succession.”

When Lu Li heard what the other party said, he also remembered what Gu Feng had said that the books previously published by this publishing house were all traditional literature books.

After a pause, Zhao Wenkui patted Lu Li on the shoulder and said, "Since you have the idea of ​​holding a book signing, I will try my best to help you implement it when I get back. I will contact you after the decision is made."

After saying that, the two of them said goodbye and went back.

What Lu Li didn't expect was that he received a call from Zhao Wenkui again the next day, saying that the first printing quantity of "The Condor Shooting" had been determined, and he decided to print 50,000 copies first to test the water, and if the sales were good, he would continue to print more copies.

.

50,000 may seem like a small number for the national market, but it is actually quite a lot. After all, with the advent of the e-reading era, the sales of physical books are getting lower year by year, so Huaxin Publishing House can give "Shooting the Condor"

》The first printing of 50,000 is already very risky.

In fact, Huaxin Publishing House has no choice. The current sales of traditional literature books are really poor. If they don’t find a way out, they may soon decline. After all, Huaxin Publishing House is not the only major publishing house in China, and competition is still huge.

of.

In recent years, with the development of online literature, many online novels published by relatively small-name publishers have sold a lot of books, and some have even been among the top ten in the sales list for several years in a row.

At this time, Huaxin Publishing House finally couldn't sit still and began to enter the literary world. The first one it fell in love with was Lu Li's "The Condor". Because although "The Condor" was updated online first, it is difficult to read other books.

The literary content is relatively strong, and the results are very good. It is a very suitable book for Huaxin Publishing House to publish.

That's why Huaxin Publishing House hit it off with Lu Li. Not only did it give Lu Li a very generous royalty treatment, but the first printing volume was also very impressive.

Because "The Condor Shooting" was about to be published, Lu Li also learned about the situation of physical books, so he knew that the first printing volume of the other party was very good, and he was very satisfied with the other party's approach. Although Lu Li, who had experienced it in his previous life, knew that "

"Shooting the Condor", this kind of printing quantity is far from enough, but now Lu Li will naturally not foolishly say that the quantity printed is small, the facts will naturally prove everything.

"By the way, the book signing event has been finalized. The initial decision is that on January 1st, New Year's Day, the first volume of "The Condor" will also be on the shelves in bookstores across the country. You have to adjust the time.

Okay." After talking about some publishing issues, Zhao Wenkui said to Lu Li.

Lu Li didn't expect that what he just talked about yesterday would be confirmed today. It seems that Zhao Wenkui is a very anxious person.

"Okay, New Year's Day is the holiday and I don't have to go to school. Just contact me when the time comes." Lu Li replied without any objection after hearing this.

In the evening, Lu Li also released a single chapter related to the work "The Condor", saying that "The Condor" will be published soon, with the release date initially scheduled for January 1st, and a book signing will be held, but the location has yet to be determined.

I will keep you informed at any time, and I hope you all can support me when the time comes.

Liu Xiaowen and other book fans also learned the news that Lu Li was going to hold a book signing event, and started to get busy. This book signing event was a big challenge for the new Lu League. But if it is held well,

Then it will be a very good opportunity for the future development of the Lu League and the gathering of people's hearts.

Soon, Liu Xiaowen posted a registration post in the book review area of ​​"The Condor" as the leader of the Lu League:

I'm glad to hear that Lu Lida's "The Condor" will be published soon, and it's confirmed that a book signing will be held. The time for the book signing is tentatively scheduled for January 1st. Although the location has not yet been determined, it is most likely to be in Huajing City. I hope there will be conditions and time on New Year's Day.

The coming members of the Chinese mainland alliance all signed up here to determine the number of people. When the time came, Mosquito and Lu Lida were on hand to welcome the heroes from all walks of life.

After posting, Liu Xiaowen directly refined the post and pinned it to the top of the post, and soon there were a lot of replies.

"Sign up, not to mention anything else, just to see Lu Lida." Ruilai stretched out his palms.

"Sign up. Actually, I want to see the alliance leader more than Lu Li. After all, I've seen photos of Lu Li, but I haven't seen the rumored beautiful alliance leader." Fenghuaxueyue.

"Sign up, I won't say that I'm here to see the beautiful leader. In addition, there is a pervert upstairs, and the identification is complete." Harry Potter.

"Sign up, Lu Li wants to see it, and so does the beautiful leader." There are really a lot of fish.

…

Huahai Jiaotong University, Liu Xiaowen sat in front of the computer, looked at the responses from these people, ignored some of the words, and carefully counted the people who wanted to participate. As the days passed, the number of people signing up became more and more

By the 31st, the number of people counted by Liu Xiaowen had reached more than 5,000.

Although not all those who signed up can come, it can be seen that Lu Li's popularity is very high. Of course, the popularity of Mosquito, the beautiful leader of the alliance, cannot be overshadowed.

After Lu Li felt that time was tight, the number of daily updates increased from two to three, and "The Condor Shooting" was almost finished.
