The car giant started by marrying the daughter of the king

Chapter 58 Send money to your door
"Jiang Hui, you're quite punctual when you get off work."

When Jiang Hui just returned to the gate of the clinic's dormitory building, Ge Suhong was already waiting there.

"Editor Ge, why didn't you go up and sit down first?"

Jiang Hui was not surprised by Ge Suhong's arrival today.

The first issue of "Desire" has been released, so it is normal for her to come here today to ask for the manuscript of the second issue.

She seemed to be holding a few magazines in her hands, most likely sample issues provided by People's Literature.

"The last time I went to your house with Team Leader Cui, I felt that your wife had already done everything she could to chat with us, so I won't embarrass her today."

"I was afraid that I would put her under too much pressure, and then I would go and persuade her. If I can't get the manuscript back on time, then Team Leader Cui will not forgive me."

Ge Suhong made a joke and handed the package to Jiang Hui, saying, "These are three sample issues and a letter with the payment slip."

"Normally it should be mailed to you, but since I'm coming over today, I just brought it here."

Jiang Hui's mood immediately improved when he heard the payment slip.

He was not polite at all. He opened the envelope directly, took out the remittance slip and took a look at it.

The remuneration is 5 yuan per thousand words, and 40,000 words is exactly 200 yuan.

For him now, it is not a lot, but it is definitely not a small amount.

After all, his salary is only 55 yuan a month.

"Thank you for your hard work today. Please wait here for a while. I'll go upstairs to get the manuscript, and then we can go have a meal nearby?"

Although Zhu Lin must have prepared dinner at home, he still had to express his gratitude.

However, Ge Suhong had no plans to go up today, so naturally she would not accept Jiang Hui's invitation.

"I can't wait to read your masterpiece. I'll save the meal for next time."

"The song 'Desire' you wrote this time has become a big hit. I guess your wife will have a lot to say to you when we get home later."

Since Ge Suhong said so, Jiang Hui didn't bother to be polite anymore.

Anyway, there will be plenty of opportunities to eat in the future, so there is no rush to eat now.

Jiang Hui quickly brought the manuscript down. "There are six chapters and about 60,000 words in total. You can decide whether to continue with 40,000 words or publish all of them. I have no objection."

Originally Jiang Hui wanted to finish writing "Desire" as soon as possible, but now it seems that there is not enough time.

The BJ212 project team has too much to do.

Even when you return home, sometimes you can't help but think about various arrangements.

"If I send them all at once, will there be any problem with submitting them next time?"

Ge Suhong was really worried that Jiang Hui would not be able to submit his manuscript one day, which would be embarrassing.

The most feared thing about a serialized novel is that it will be discontinued.

"No problem, but if your magazine sales improve, remember to increase my royalties."

Jiang Hui said half-jokingly.

Others may be embarrassed to discuss money, but he is not.

Although the current standards for remuneration are there, it is impossible to pay an additional particularly high fee.

But the standard is 2 to 7 yuan per thousand words, and Jiang Hui is currently getting 5 yuan per thousand words, so he must at least get the salary of 7 yuan per thousand words, right?

This is what he should take, there is no need to be polite.

Otherwise, when writing "Desire", could it be that it was just to generate energy for love?

"We have our own rules regarding royalties, but I will try to get as much as I can for you."

"Next time you come over, remember to collect your manuscript revision subsidy." Although Ge Suhong was not used to discussing royalties with the author, she really took Jiang Hui's words to heart.

So far, Jiang Hui is probably the author with the greatest potential she has discovered.

Whether she can make further progress in the editorial team in the future is closely related to Jiang Hui's future contributions.

After parting with Ge Suhong, Jiang Hui did not linger at the door.

It was such a hot day and I was already sweating after riding my bike back.

You have to go back and take a shower quickly.

However, thinking about how inconvenient it was to take a shower, he became more determined to buy a courtyard house nearby.

"My mother called me today to ask me about your novel writing."

"You are now completely famous."

Just now when Jiang Hui went back to get the manuscript paper, Zhu Lin didn't have time to talk to him more.

Now that Ge Suhong has left, I will naturally have a chance to speak.

"These reputations are false. They are mainly to prevent people from doubting where our money comes from when they see us spending money lavishly in the future."

"My main focus now is on the BJ212 upgrade project."

"When this project is successful, I will have a firm foothold in the Capital Automobile Factory."

"In the future, whether you develop in the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant or jump out and do something on your own, it will be much more convenient."

Jiang Hui didn't tell Zhu Lin much about going out on his own in the future.

After all, this idea was too unbelievable in 1978.

The streets were filled with educated youth returning to the city, who were unable to find suitable jobs, and many parents in their forties were forced to retire early to make room for their children.

That’s right, in this era children can take over directly.

The three generations of XX people in later generations were not without reason.

It’s better to give Zhu Lin some information in advance. Even if she doesn’t take it seriously for the time being, it will be easier for her to accept it in the future.

"Writers are very popular nowadays. You were able to write a novel as popular as Desire. It would be a pity if you don't write any more in the future."

Zhu Lin's words definitely expressed the thoughts of many people.

If Ge Suhong were here, she would definitely applaud with her hands and feet.

"Whether it's a pity or not depends on the situation."

"If the time is right and I have new ideas, I can consider other creations in the future."

Jiang Hui chatted with Zhu Lin for a while and then went to take a shower.

After using soap to wash off the sticky dirt on my body, I finally felt refreshed.

In later generations, Jiang Hui rarely took cold water baths, but after returning to this era, taking cold water baths in summer has become a habit.

"Why don't we go back to my parents' place this weekend? Mom hasn't seen us for a while."

After taking a shower, Zhu Lin helped to serve the meal, and the two chatted while eating.

After a busy day, I can finally relax completely.

"Sure. Now many things in the project team are slowly getting on track. I don't need to keep an eye on them every weekend."

Accompanied by the various sounds of pots and pans colliding outside and the voices of neighbors calling their children back for dinner, the two of them finished their meal, walked downstairs for a while in tacit understanding, and then came back to rest.

I don’t do any special exercise on weekdays, so it’s natural for me to do more exercise at night.
