The Sweetness of the Seventies

Teacher Wu's words attracted the attention of other people in the office, and they all looked at He Tiantian.

"Haha, no matter how good the relatives are, they are just relatives. Just be polite and reciprocate. There is nothing special." He Tiantian said, without any pride or show off on his face.

"Teacher He, I heard that the TVs over there in Xiangjiang are good. Can you bring one to me sometime?" Teacher Wu said. She was getting married soon and wanted to buy a color TV, but it was not available in China for the time being.

He Tiantian was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "I won't go, and the TV is so heavy, who can move it here!"

"That's true." Teacher Wu smiled coquettishly, "By the way, I heard that the clothes there are good-looking. Did you buy all your clothes there?"

"No." He Tiantian replied, "They are all sent from abroad by my grandmother and mother."

"Ah?" Teacher Wu was stunned again, "Your grandmother and parents are abroad? Which country are they in?"

"America." He Tiantian replied.

"Oh, Teacher He, why don't you go abroad with me? I heard that there are high-rise buildings, people living in luxury, and cars running all over the place." Teacher Wu said enviously. If her parents were abroad, she would definitely go abroad.

"Haha." He Tiantian smiled, "Don't think so well of foreign countries. I have been to foreign countries. In addition to the material life there being better than at home, the moon is not rounder abroad than at home."

So the atmosphere in the office is divided into two groups. Some people say that overseas is better, and some people say that domestic is better. Our teacher He Tiantian is already ready to go to class.

The next day, Tang Ping'an came to the office and said to He Tiantian: "Teacher He, I can't think of a good pen name. Please think of one for me."

"Yeah?" He Tiantian was stunned, then smiled, "I'm afraid the pen name I came up with is not a good one."

"It's okay. I like whatever name Teacher He chooses." Tang Ping'an said, looking at He Tiantian expectantly.

He Tiantian thought for a while and said: "How about February Red? It is taken from the frost-leaf red in February flowers. Although the February flowers are beautiful, the maple leaves that have experienced wind and frost are even more beautiful and strong."

"February Red?" Tang Ping'an was thinking about his conscience and nodded, "Thank you, teacher, for using this name."

"Okay, I'll send it to you tomorrow." He Tiantian smiled and said, "Study hard and create hard. Opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared."

"Teacher, how much is the postage?" Tang Pingan asked. Teacher He had already helped him a lot, and he could not continue to spend Teacher He's money.

He Tiantian smiled and said: "The postage is not much, it is sent together with the things. Even if I don't submit the article, I will send things to my friends. It's just by the way. Don't think too much about it. When you publish it, give me a This signed book."

"Teacher He?" Tang Pingan was a little embarrassed.

"Okay, you can go back. While working hard, you should also pay attention to your health. It is best to get up every morning and go for a run. You are too weak." He Tiantian reminded that if you want to go far on the road of creation, you must You must have a good body and good living habits. "

"Well, I wrote it down, thank you Teacher He." Tang Ping'an said gratefully. Regardless of whether it will be published or not, he would thank Teacher He.

He Tiantian mailed the things to Xie Wanying, because Xie Wanying's mother-in-law owns a publishing house, and she also has shares in that publishing house. At the same time, Xie Wanying will also write something and publish it.

Instead of submitting this "Wind and Cloud" to those big publishing houses and newspapers and waiting to be selected among the many manuscripts, it is better to go through this way and maybe have more chances to get ahead.

He Tiantian also wrote a letter to Xie Wanying, asking her for help. If the novel is good, it will be treated equally and given the opportunity to publish it.

Tang Pingan has high hopes for the novel, and so does He Tiantian.

She hoped that her efforts would not be in vain, and that Tang Pingan's hard work would be rewarded.

He Tiantian's expectations and Tang Ping'an's hopes flew to Xiangjiang with this small parcel.

Although Xie Wanying teaches mathematics, she is also an artistic young woman at heart. Otherwise, she would not have asked her parents to name the shares of the publishing house as a dowry when she got married.

You must know that the Xie family has many businesses that make money, and publishing is just an industry with very little profit.

Xie Wanying received a letter from He Tiantian. After reading the letter, she realized that it was a novel written by one of her students recommended by He Tiantian.

"My dear, Tiantian is so enthusiastic. She is submitting articles to her students." Xie Wanying smiled. She usually exchanged letters with He Tiantian and had a good relationship.

Qian Zhigao smiled and said: "We are cooperating more and more with He Tiantian. Whether your husband and I can take our careers to the next level depends entirely on He Tiantian and Huo Yingjie, so my wife, please take a closer look. . If you are qualified to publish, please give He Tiantian some respect. It is rare for a teacher to value his students so much."

"If you don't tell me, I will do the same thing." Xie Wanying asked, "If it's not well written, she won't introduce it to me. This is a martial arts novel. I'll read it first. If it's good, I'll read it first. Serialized in the martial arts magazine under the publishing house."

"Okay, you can figure it out yourself." Qian Zhigao said, "I went to attend the family dinner at my parents' house with you a few days ago, and my father-in-law finally looked at me."

"Haha, I knew you would definitely get my father's approval." Xie Wanying said, "You are so good! So I never worry."

Qian Zhigao was even happier after hearing his wife's encouragement and affirmation.

Xie Wanying took the time to read this novel and was immediately amazed. After reading it in two days, she immediately requested that it be typed and serialized in a magazine owned by the publishing house.

Xie Wanying replied to He Tiantian and sent a generous new contract.

Seventy thousand words.

Because of He Tiantian's relationship, Xie Wanying's conditions were also very loose, but there was one thing: under the same conditions, she would have priority to sign a contract with her publisher for the next book.

He Tiantian was very happy when she got the contract. She read it up and down several times. It was very loose and fair.

I saw that the contract passed over was in traditional Chinese characters. Fortunately, the martial arts novels Tang Pingan had read before were all brought from Hong Kong, and they were all in traditional Chinese characters. This guy also likes to delve into research, so he writes novels in traditional Chinese without the hassle of converting between them.

Although simplified Chinese characters are promoted nowadays, many people still use traditional Chinese characters.

He Tiantian personally asked Tang Pingan to come to the office, took out the contract and said: "Tang Pingan, there is already news, this is the contract. If you think there is no problem, you can sign it, and then you will send out 100,000 manuscripts , you can get a royalties of 7,000 yuan. This is only for serialization. If it is published later, there will be subsequent royalties. The price will not be determined until the serialization is completed. "

"Ah?" Tang Ping'an was stunned, "Teacher, can the martial arts novel I wrote really be published?"

"Well!" He Tiantian nodded, "You have seen the contract, right? Of course it is true."
