Return to Hong Kong Island for a Century

Chapter 30 Yudan Cong (First update, please collect, read, and vote)

"Well, we didn't think of this. Novels are novels. If we give a formal answer, I don't know how big a storm it will cause." Editor-in-Chief Luo looked at Li Songgao, who could actually think of this.

The newspaper company just thought that answering questions would help with newspaper sales and ignored this point.

"Then, Mr. Li, do you have any difficulties? The place where you live is not very safe. We two disguised ourselves and changed several places before coming to you. I'm afraid you don't know that the New Evening News has good sales, which makes many people jealous. Some newspaper owners are gangsters themselves." After listening to Li Song, Editor-in-Chief Luo felt that what Li Song said was right.

"It's really a bit difficult. I want to find a place to open a company, but Uncle Luo also knows that when doing things in Hong Kong Island, all aspects need to be taken care of. He comes to ask for money as soon as I set up the stall." Li Song felt that if Editor-in-Chief Luo had come a few days earlier, he would have borrowed money from him, but he didn't need it now.

"Start a company?" Editor-in-Chief Luo asked curiously.

"Well, it's a trading company, doing some business." Li Song gave an ambiguous answer.

"That's no problem. I'll introduce Li Xiaoyou to a place to start a company." Editor-in-Chief Luo nodded, probably guessing that Li Song wanted to do business in the mainland.

"Little friend Li, you were born to write. Writing 20,000 words a day is nothing special, but for so many days in a row, and even writing two books at once, you are not only talented, but also very hardworking. I have ever met a young person."

"As for the words of some great writers, don't take them to heart. In fact, this great writer is dissatisfied with my evaluation. I am sorry for causing you trouble." Editor-in-Chief Luo spoke again.

"It's okay. It proves my excellence when someone comes out to find fault with me. However, as an old senior, it's okay to give suggestions, but personal attacks on me..." Li Song shook his head.

"In fact, this great writer's stance is somewhat different from that of our New Evening News. Never mind..." Chief Editor Luo shook his head, unable to say some words.

"So I will reply to him tomorrow with this: I never curse people, because I am not cursing people!" Li Song said with a smile.

"Okay!" Editor-in-Chief Luo nodded.

Then Chief Editor Luo talked to Li Song about some subsequent plots, and found that Li Song's thinking was simply invincible. The main subsequent plots were also arranged and waiting to be filled in.

Editor-in-Chief Luo also revealed some of the preparations of the newspaper. They are about to publish the first single volume of Ghost Blows Out the Light. It would be best to publish the book now while the popularity is high. Anyway, Li Song writes fast, and the single volume novels have tens of thousands of words or even more than 200,000 words.

Twenty-eight thousand words are serialized every week, which means 12 words a month and 24 words in two months.

The New Evening News plans to publish a single volume of about 200,000 words.

After publishing one book and selling it for two months, Li Song published another two-month serialized book. He felt so good about making money.

At noon, Li Song went downstairs to buy roast pork, roast goose, etc. to entertain the two of them.

Then the way they addressed each other changed. Li Song called Liu Jiale "Brother Le" and Editor-in-Chief Luo "Uncle Xun". Liu Jiale and Editor-in-Chief Luo called Li Song "A Song".

After finishing their meal, they drank some tea and then said goodbye.

As for moving, Li Song decided not to move for the time being. Uncle Xun said that he would be able to negotiate the copyright of TV series and movies after next week, and the TV station would not miss such popularity.

At that time, most of the scripts for movies and TV series in Hong Kong were improvised, and the same was true for adaptations.

After sending the two away, Li Song continued writing. After two hours, Li Song was getting up to stretch his body when he heard the doorbell.

"Alin?" Li Song saw Alin. Alin was dressed differently from yesterday. She was wearing a sports suit and looked more youthful and beautiful. She was dressed a little more maturely yesterday.

"Wait a minute, let me put on some clothes." Li Song said. He had worn a vest for exercise, so he put on his clothes and put the manuscript of his novel in the drawer of his desk.

"Brother Song, are you hiding something from me?" After Arlene came in and sat down, she stared at Li Song with her charming eyes wide open. Li Song was pouring coffee for Arlene. Hearing this, he asked curiously, "Why do you say that?"

"Those two people yesterday were obviously looking for trouble with us. Why did they really admit their mistakes when you said they were wrong?" Arlene widened her eyes and paid close attention to Li Song's subtle expression.

"I met that leader once before." Li Song said while making coffee.

"When I applied for my ID card, I found a lawyer and then invited this lawyer to dinner. The leader seemed to know the lawyer, but I didn't understand Cantonese at the time, so I don't know what the relationship between them was." Li Song didn't know why, but he subconsciously concealed it. It was mainly because he felt that he had to explain a lot and say a lot, so he decided to forget it.

"Is that true?" Arlene was a little skeptical.

But then he thought again, Li Song had just arrived in Hong Kong Island not long ago. Even if he wanted to mix in society and become a gangster, it was impossible for him to make a small leader of the other side in the society afraid to take action.

Then the only possibility is what Li Song said.

"Hmph, I didn't sleep well last night. I didn't go to bed until early this morning and haven't eaten yet." Arlene snorted.

"I'll treat you to a meal." Li Song said quickly after hearing this.

Arlene still thought Li Song had grown up, but in fact, Li Song felt that he had deceived Arlene and treated her to a meal as an apology.

"I want to eat steak." Arlene said.

"Eat steak. I want to eat it too." Li Song nodded. He really wanted to eat it, but the tea restaurant and the roast meat restaurant downstairs were enough for him to eat.

"Let's go!"

"Wait for me to change clothes." Li Song said quickly.

The two did not go to a hotel like the Mandarin Oriental, but instead went to a better Western restaurant.

Medium rare steak, paired with red wine.

Speaking of which, Li Song is like a wild boar who can't eat fine bran. He really can't get used to this kind of dull red wine. There is still the aroma of oak and other astringent feelings. Of course, maybe it's because the wine is not good.

In fact, Alin regretted it after she said she wanted to eat Western food. Today was Christmas and she was afraid of being misunderstood by Li Song. But when she saw that Li Song didn't seem to care, she felt relieved.

"Hey, isn't this Alin?" Li Song was eating when he suddenly heard someone speak.

I saw two people walking towards me from a distance, a man and a woman, both of them were young. The man had a middle part in his hair and wore a suit and trousers, while the woman had wavy hair and lipstick, and she looked mature.

There weren't many people eating in the restaurant at the moment, but as soon as the man opened his mouth, others looked over.

"You said you were going to accompany your family, but then forget it. It's wrong for you to lie. Hey!" Although the young man was talking to Arlene, he glanced at Li Song with an unhappy look.

"Yudancong, what are you going to do?" Alin asked unhappily.

"My name is not Yudan Cong..." The man was a little defensive and argued loudly.

"Waiter..." Li Song called out "waiter" in English and pointed at the man.
