Rebirth of the courtyard, the start is 80s

Chapter 201 I'm reading novels at home while others are doing promotions outside
"Looking for the Qin Dynasty, Chapter 130, Daughter Corps."

"Ahem... oh, sorry, my throat is a little dry, but that doesn't count, let's start again, umm."

Immediately afterwards, Cao Zhiqiang cleared his throat, closed his eyes again, and continued to read quickly in standard Mandarin:
"Welcome by nearly a hundred girls paying attention, Xiang Shaolong and Mr. Changping followed Yingying's fans and entered the hall."

"Xiang Shaolong's body shape can be called the most perfect in the present age. He is dressed in a plain and elegant samurai uniform, but there is a small piece of eye-catching stain on the shoulder. The lead model is walking across the catwalk, catching everyone's attention."

"Today, there was someone who was rough on him. Seeing that he is Xiang Shaolong who has touched the hearts of all the women in Xianyang City, he was dumbfounded."

"Ying Ying walked to her seat, the stunning beauty sitting with her..."

Yes, what Cao Zhiqiang is doing now is the reverse engineering of audio novels.

Because the "Buy One Get One Free" version of "Shattered Void" and "The Farthest Distance in the World" is currently on the market.

As a time traveler, Cao Zhiqiang knows that the smell of wine is also afraid of deep alleys, and publicity is more important than anything else.

So from the moment the two bundled books were officially put on sale at Xinhua Bookstore, Cao Zhiqiang simply dispatched almost everyone in the publishing house to ensure the smooth sale of the novel.

The function of sending them out is to go to various Xinhua bookstores in the name of employees of the publishing house, to help supervise and record the sales of books at various outlets, and to help promote and promote their own books.

For example, bring a lot of cheap gifts such as pencils, erasers, balloons, etc., and then hold promotional activities such as buying books and giving gifts at various Xinhua Bookstores, and buying books to participate in lucky draws.

The situation is similar to that of later generations of manufacturers who send people to supermarkets to help market their products.

This also caused the publishing house to be very deserted now, and Cao Zhiqiang didn't have many people available at the moment.

In view of this, Cao Zhiqiang simply did not go to work in the publishing house, and worked directly at home.

Anyway, both at home and the publishing house have telephones, so just call if you have something to do, and save him running back and forth.

As for no one to help him record the novel, this is actually not a problem at all.

In fact, among the current people in the publishing house, whether it is the few guys who are obviously coming to retire, or other newcomers who are really capable of work, they are not born as stenographers, and their shorthand skills are very limited.

If they were asked to record on the spot, they would definitely not be able to keep up with my speed of reading novels. If they did so reluctantly, it would definitely seriously slow down my speed of reading novels. Cao Zhiqiang couldn't bear this.

What's more, the novels that Cao Zhiqiang reads are often too evocative. If there are outsiders present, Cao Zhiqiang will often feel embarrassed to read them in person.

Therefore, due to various objective and subjective reasons, after the actual operation of Cao Zhiqiang’s audio novel reverse engineering, it was not Cao Zhiqiang who read to people, but Cao Zhiqiang who was alone in the office and read the novel to the tape recorder.

The current specific process is that Cao Zhiqiang first reads and records novels to a portable tape recorder behind closed doors.

After he finished recording a tape, he handed it over to his responsible editors and asked them to rewrite it based on the recording.

Different novels are handed over to different editorial teams, and different editorial teams are responsible for transcribing the novels in text.

As for those editorial teams, they have to do sales promotion during the day, and they have to go back to light the lamp and stay up late listening to tapes and writing novels at night...

Well, that's pretty aggressive.

Not to mention, in this way, the recovery efficiency of the novel has improved a lot in an instant, and it feels faster than Cao Zhiqiang's typing speed in his previous life.

Although none of the subordinates knew shorthand, two or three people gathered together to listen to the tape recorder, and then wrote out the contents of the tape recorder, the speed was not slow.

And after such a transfer of the tape recorder, I didn't listen to Cao Zhiqiang's novel in person, which also avoided a lot of embarrassment.

For example, "Looking for the Qin Dynasty" that Cao Zhiqiang is currently talking about, this is the original version without deletions, and the eclectic descriptions in it are wonderful.

Of course Cao Zhiqiang could delete these contents, but the workload would be too much, and it would take a lot of thinking.

So Cao Zhiqiang's method is to swallow the jujube whole, and read it out according to the information in his mind.

Anyway, they are system subtitles invisible to others, and the font size can be large or small, so there is no difficulty in reading the subtitles.

Because there are so many sex scenes, it would be a bit embarrassing if someone was present to listen to Cao Zhiqiang's novel.

But through such a transfer of the tape, it would be much better if you don’t see yourself listening to the tape.

This situation is similar to the difference between going to a live concert and listening to a record at home.

Of course, the original version produced in this way will not be directly published in China.

In fact, the original novel restored in this way has to be polished by the editorial team first, so that the novel looks smoother and smoother, and there are no typos.

After that, the polished novel will be sent to people like Yu Deli and Zhou Huai'en for review, so that they can remove those "inappropriate" or "too exciting" fragments, and add some appropriate descriptions.

That is to say, without destroying the highlights of the original plot as much as possible, remove the "too violent" or "too evocative" descriptions, and make a popular version, or an inland version.

This inland edition, if it is determined that there is no problem, can be edited and published as a book, or serialized in a magazine that will appear later.

As for the uncut original version, I will try to find a way to register the copyright in Xiangjiang overseas, and then distribute it overseas.

This "finding a way" is not what Yu Deli and others can do, but through Cao Zhiqiang, the general manager.

And Cao Zhiqiang's method is also simple, that is to use Lou Xiao'e's help.

Not now, of course, but later.

However, Cao Zhiqiang believes that Lou Xiao'e will definitely do him a small favor out of love and profit.

In addition, in order to facilitate copyright issues in the future, when Cao Zhiqiang read the novel, he deliberately added a time before each recording, as if writing a diary.

For example, he has to say the time of year, month, day and day, and then the original manuscript written based on his recording content must also add the date of writing and the name of the editor in charge.

This is done to preserve evidence.

Because Cao Zhiqiang remembers that although there is no copyright law in China, there will always be one in the future.

At that time, these original tapes and manuscripts with specific dates and times will be the best evidence to prove that Cao Zhiqiang is the original creator.

In addition, when Cao Zhiqiang becomes famous in the future, these gadgets can also become valuable souvenirs, and they may be immortalized forever.

So, from the very beginning, Cao Zhiqiang attached great importance to these original tapes and manuscripts, and the level of protection is quite high.

That is to say, there is no CD technology in China now.

If there is, he must transcribe it into a CD as soon as possible, so that the preservation time can be longer.

……

"On the way back home, Xiang Shaolong felt that dream and reality in this era were indistinguishable again."

"Remembering that I have changed from a downcast on the street to the chief celebrity around Qin Shihuang, and I have formed a rivalry with Lu Buwei, who has power over the Qin Dynasty, and now I have exhausted my bargaining chips, and started to fight against the eternally famous Tian Dan. The struggle between life and death can't help but be full of emotions."

"Fate is like an invisible hand, guiding him to create history in a way that is in perfect harmony with the facts in the history books."

"But there is no such person as Xiang Shaolong in the history books, how should this account be settled? What will happen to him? He can't help but get confused."

"Okay! This chapter ends here, next, is the next chapter, and the title of the next chapter is..."

Just after reading this, the phone on the desk in the study suddenly rang.

This sudden call interrupted Cao Zhiqiang's study and work.

Cao Zhiqiang, who was forced to stop working, first looked at the phone that was still ringing non-stop, and did not answer the phone immediately, but continued: "Crack! Pause first, I will answer the phone!"

After saying this, Cao Zhiqiang turned off the recording button of the tape recorder, temporarily ending the recording.
