It can be said that a lot of effort has been put into it, and no one can find any fault with it. It can only be described as a stunning feat.
But Wei Na still frowned.
Because this book is really a bit light.
He remembered that Ernst's manuscripts were not that heavy, but why did the book become lighter after adding a book cover and using enough good paper and ink?
Also, isn't it a bit thin?
And this book title...
Wei Na read the title of the book with some confusion.
""The Chronicles of the Kingdoms of Ess - Four Ancient Civilizations Chapter (Preface)"?"
"Governor Wei, what does this preface mean?"
It means only the basic worldview settings and framework.
Wei Yanwu really wanted to answer so straightforwardly, and at the same time, he asked those unlucky guys like Adams (Grandpa Shi Huaiya), Lin Gerui, and Oel Peters (Beisong's father) to come over and kowtow to him one by one. Apologize to the brain cells that have been burned to death these days!
You guys are so fucking brave. I took China, Adams took ancient Egypt, Lin Gerui took ancient India, and Oel took ancient Mesopotamia.
The manuscripts of the specific contents of the four ancient civilizations were all taken away, so that the manuscript sent by Ernst only contained a basic setting of Erth's world view, a preface, and an unfinished chapter.
If these things are to be published, why not just find a poor student in school and ask him to publish his answer sheet?
Anyway, it is the same effect, there is nothing to see except a solution and a colon!
But there was no way, those few people were as if they were in a daze, and no one was willing to return a share first. Even that guy Adams lay on the hospital bed and had a hard time with Wei Yanwu: "You can take it if you want it, and I will take it too." There are only a few days left to live. Governor Wei Yanwu is so cold and ruthless and wants to deprive a dying old man of his last preferences. I will never spread this matter!"
There really is no one who treats me as a human being.
What can Wei Yanwu do?Wei Yanwu could only explain:
"That's it, Miss Wei Na, don't be impatient."
“The editor-in-chief told me that Chronicle of the Kingdoms of Erth really has the potential to become a hit, but its world view setting is so complicated and cumbersome, and there are many differences from Terra. Therefore, in order to prevent some unknown A patient man lowered the reputation of this book, and in order to maximize commercial purposes, he decided to publish the entire manuscript in batches. In this way, the "Preface" first whetted people's appetite and gave people time to understand the world of Erth , then "China" aroused people's interest in one breath, then "Mesopotamia", "India", and finally "Egypt" at the end, showing us another legendary story written by Mr. Ernst. , a historical story with a Sargonian flavor!”
Wei Yanwu's meaning was not difficult to understand, and it sounded somewhat reasonable, but Wei Na always felt that something was wrong.
Although it is true that she has not been involved in this field much, can anyone watch it with so much interest just because of the simple setting?
She obviously didn’t know that there was such a thing as a “setting book” in another world, and that it was selling like hotcakes.
Since Wei Yanwu opened his mouth and gave such a reasonable explanation, she could only temporarily agree with his statement and asked expectantly:
"I see. I'm really grateful to Governor Wei and the editor-in-chief. How long will it take for the remaining chapters to be published?"
"It's coming, it's coming." Wei Yanwu said with a smile.
Did you create a new folder?As built.
At this moment, they don't know that the "Chronicles of the Kingdoms of Esth (Preface)" released because of this minor incident will be called the origin of canon collections in later generations, attracting countless writers to come up with all kinds of weird ideas. Second creation.
Chapter 94 He is a genius, but it’s a pity that geniuses don’t write jokes
Vina is not a fool either.
Wei Yanwu's attitude is suspicious. As a carrier, she has certainly read Ernst's manuscript.
She had to admit that those manuscripts were indeed very interesting. Just talking about the various stories, changes in civilization and grand narratives in them, as well as the comments and comments from the "narrator" interspersed from time to time, these The manuscript is definitely a classic.
But no matter how classic something is, some people will disagree with it, and a large part of those who do agree will not agree with it all. It is difficult to agree with everyone. This is a simple and clear truth.
Weena could even guess why Ernst specifically asked her to come to Longmen to publish this manuscript, because among the four ancient civilizations, in addition to China, which is based on the country of Yan, there are three remaining countries, two of which have basically No prototype can be found, and the only remaining kingdom is Sargon!
Where is Sargon?
In that piece of yellow sand, the value of books may not be as good as the paper used to wipe your buttocks. At least the latter can make you look cleaner, while the former makes you look uncomfortable when you use it to wipe your buttocks. You are worried about whether your anus will become dirty. Remarkable.
Therefore, it is actually a very clever move to choose the place of publication in Longmen of the Yan Kingdom, because Dayan is one of the few Terran countries that can find a sense of identity in the Four Ancient Civilizations Chapter.The people of Dayan are also one of the few countries who may be familiar with those ancient customs.
Generally speaking, their reading threshold will be relatively low.
Therefore, Weina could understand Wei Yanwu's point about releasing the world view settings first, but he said that those dry text settings without story background could also become popular, which she found a bit strange.
At least when Wei Na herself saw the relevant settings of "Us", she was far from the level of "can't put it down". At most, she could be regarded as "interested".
So she decided to check it out for herself.
In any city in a country where consumerism is prevalent, bookstores are definitely not a popular place.Slow-paced reading is far less effective than a few short videos or one or two mini-games to relieve stress. People’s first goal is to survive and reproduce, followed by satisfying their appetites, and finally pursuing spiritual needs.
But Wei Na did see what Wei Yanwu said, the scene of the bookstore being full.
Could it be that I'm overthinking it? "Us" did sell well. Wei Yanwu didn't lie?
She was just about to get closer and ask someone who had bought the book to inquire about the situation, when she saw a purple-haired Zalak figure in a black leather skirt walking towards the bookstore not far away.
She immediately recognized the man's identity.
The daughter of the Longmen Rat King, Lin Yuxia!
Wei Na and Lin Yuxia met at a dinner party where Wei Yanwu was sitting at the table. At that time, she came with the Rat King, who was known as the "underground master of Longmen".The reason for her coming is also very simple.
Recently, her father has been eating out all the time, and he has been treating guests to Governor Wei, who usually spends a lot of money. This makes Lin Yuxia's mother, who knows Wei Yanwu's temper, find it strange.
When asked, Wei Yanwu's reason for the treat was even "to keep in touch with the old brothers", which made her mother even more incredible.
What, is this because the sun has risen to the west and there is only one moon left, or is Longmen going to war with someone again?
After some thought, Lin Yuxia's mother sent Lin Yuxia to go to the banquet with the Rat King to prevent Wei Yanwu from causing any trouble at the banquet.
After going back and forth so many times, it was difficult for Lin Yuxia and Wei Na not to notice each other, the newcomers at the banquet.
Seeing Lin Yuxia walking towards the bookstore, Wei Na immediately greeted her and said hello:
"Ms. Lin, long time no see. Are you here to buy books too?"
"We just met at the banquet last night, right?"
Lin Yuxia muttered that Wei Yanwu had been treating guests to dinner so frequently recently that she felt that her weight had increased a bit. She was worried when she was called out to do something again. When she heard Wei Na's words, she naturally shook her head.
"Not entirely. I'm mainly here to deliver the manuscript to the editor of this publishing house."
Linquan Publishing House is a subsidiary of Adams Schweizer Group, and its headquarters is located in Longmen. The lower five floors of this small building are filled with bookstores and supporting cafes, while the fifth floors and above are the publishing house's editorial department.
After hearing this, Wei Na became interested:
"Manuscript? Does Miss Lin also write books?"
"I didn't write it. My mother asked me to help."
It was not a confidential matter, so Lin Yuxia casually said,
"Governor Wei recently received a manuscript of a novel, and my father also took part of it. As a result, he suddenly became mysterious. Not only did he not do any serious work for several days. He often went with Governor Wei at night. Stay up all night in Uncle Adams' hospital."
"A few days ago, Governor Wei came to urge me to write the manuscript, but they chatted in the study for a long time, and finally ended in vain for some reason. It was not until today that my father heard that the first part of this manuscript had been published, so he handed over the manuscript in his hand. After partially deleting it, take it out and send it over.”
Wei Na frowned as she listened.
Governor Wei received the manuscript?
Published today?
Why does it sound so familiar to me?
"Is the manuscript you are talking about "Us"?"
Lin Yuxia was stunned and nodded: "You know too? Could it be that you also watch "Earth"?"
She immediately explained as if she had found a comrade: "Actually, I also secretly read it for a while while my father was away. This book is indeed interesting, but I want to tell you quietly that there were a lot of troubles in getting it published today. "
"I heard that both my father and Uncle Oel felt that the book could not be published because there were some things in it that, although written in a simple way, might have a negative impact."
Wei Na was confused: "Why? I must have read part of this book. Aren't the stories in it quite educational?"
Lin Yuxia replied seriously: "It is a good thing to have educational significance, but what if something really happens to education?"
Wei Na's CPU sputtered for a while, in awe.
As expected of the Rat King's daughter, what you said is quite mysterious.
But the focus of her attention is obviously not here. After all, "Us (Preface)" has indeed been published, which shows that at the end of the secret meeting between Wei Yanwu, Lin Gerui, Adams, and O'Er, Wei Yanwu and Adams finally Convinced the other two.
But the crux of the question is - since part of Ernst's manuscript is with you, is the rest of the manuscript also with the other three people?
"Then I don't know, but it should be true, otherwise my father wouldn't say every night that he spent the night at Uncle Adams' house today."
Obviously, these four Gantry giants have formed a small organization like a reading seminar, and the address of the organization was chosen at Adams' home.
As for why I chose where to go instead of Wei Yanwu's house, it might be because Adams has to be moved here and there every night, and he might have to carry the coffin one night. Isn't it too troublesome?
"Anyway, I'm here to deliver this abridged version of the manuscript. If the remaining manuscript is still in the hands of others, it is estimated that it will be reviewed and deleted during this time and sent here."
What Lin Yuxia didn't know was that only Ouel's copy had not yet been sent to the publishing house. The remaining ones, Wei Yanwu and Adams, who were the first to get the manuscript, had already completed the preliminary review and revision of the manuscript content and made copies. The document has already been sent to the publishing house.
Reviewing and deletion are the characteristics of Dayan audio and video book publications, which must be tasted.
What's more, as Lin Yuxia said, there are a lot of "unharmonious" contents in the book, but this book is also full of educational significance. What if it really teaches something?
Rather than causing "Us" to be banned due to this, it would be better to delete it early.
The deletion may not sound good, but we can use the traditional spirit of Dayan and use the Spring and Autumn style of writing.
Wei Na nodded understandingly.
Ernst has also greeted her on this point. Now it seems that the Prime Minister has a long-term vision and has a clear understanding of Dayan that far exceeds his own.
Reminiscent of my life in Longmen during this period, and my personal understanding of Longmen’s customs, Wei Yanwu’s philosophy of life.
In some aspects, he is quite similar to Ernst's views.
No, considering the causal relationship, it should be said that Ernst is a pure Great Yan person lurking in Kjerag?
Missing Xierag's toothy snow leopard for a moment, Wei Na nodded towards Lin Yuxia, turned around, and prepared to return to Wei Yanwu Governor's Mansion.
The issue of setting the worldview first was not a big problem, and the deletion of the manuscript was something Ernst had already informed and approved, but Wei Yanwu had truly deceived her.
Although it is not a big deal, after all, the publication of books itself is a long-term thing. In many cases, it takes decades or hundreds of years after the author's death for a good book to attract public attention and praise. What a diplomat should do.
You have to ask Wei Yanwu to blast some gold coins hard!
