Chapter 1051 Excited Sonoko Machida
In the middle of the night, Qin Heqing came to Machida Sonoko's home with a laptop.
"You really wrote it." Sonoko Machida, who was wearing a white silk one-piece nightdress, sighed in amazement as she looked at the laptop in front of her and the content of the novel displayed on the computer.
"Anyway, I'm idle because I'm idle, so I wrote it." Qin Heqing, who sat watching TV and took a bite of an apple from time to time, replied casually.
"Then I'd like to take a good look at what you wrote." Machida Sonoko said with great interest.
"I'm sure you won't be disappointed."
"Not always."
Then he ignored him and concentrated on reading the first volume of Qin Heqing's first masterpiece.
And the speed is very fast, in about 20 minutes, I have read all the contents of the first volume.
"That's right. There's nothing wrong with the overall story, and there's nothing worth noting or avoiding. As far as publishing is concerned, it still meets the requirements." Machida Sonoko pulled the content back to the original position, and said to herself Qin Heqing said.
"So, it can be published?" Qin Heqing confirmed happily.
"At least the basics are fine. But as to whether it can really be published, it depends on the follow-up second review. But it shouldn't be a big problem. So before that, let me, a senior editor, review the content of your story again. " Machida Sonoko chuckled.
"Haven't you already seen it?" Qin Heqing asked in surprise.
"I've read it, but it's just a rough look. The main purpose is to look at your story structure, and to review to see if there is any content that needs special attention and avoidance. As for the writing and character description, or commercial value This part is what I want to pay attention to this time. If you are bored, watch TV or play games, and I will tell you if I can publish after I finish watching." Machida Sonoko took out his senior editor's fan, Looking at Qin Heqing, he said with a smile.
"Okay, let's see." What Qin Heqing could say was that he shrugged his shoulders and compromised.
Then he turned his attention to the TV. It seemed that there were more and more variety shows on TV, with supernatural content as the core, to pass the rest of the time.
...
Until I don't know how long it has passed.
"Okay, I'm done." Machida Sonoko put down the laptop and said.
"How is it?" Qin Heqing asked with a little expectation.
"No problem, it can be published." Sonoko Machida gave Qin Heqing a thumbs-up and said, "So if you have no problem, go to the company with me tomorrow with your computer, type out the manuscript, and go through the internal procedures. If it goes well, the publishing contract will be signed the day after tomorrow at the latest, and your new book will be put on the shelves in half a month, and then officially launched."
"Of course, this refers to the general process and does not require special publicity and targeted activities."
"Then what if it is released in a special way?" Qin Heqing asked curiously.
"Then see if there are any festivals recently, and if so, choose the festival day for the official sale."
"Like Christmas?"
"Um."
"And what if there isn't one?"
"Then we can only conduct pre-sales. Use resources to advertise in newspapers, media, and the Internet to increase popularity and public awareness, and then choose a suitable day to sell." Then he paused and added Dao, "However, this method is generally aimed at all kinds of newcomers to reward the author's debut works, or the publicity method used by people who have a certain reputation. It’s nothing more than posting announcements and posting advertisements inside the bookstore. So I don’t recommend that you distribute books in the way of pure newcomers.”
"Then sister Yuanzi means..." Qin Heqing said thoughtfully.
"Take a special announcement. After all, you are not an ordinary person—it doesn't mean that you are a priest, it means that you have also been on TV before, and you are the main character CV of a certain variety show. Influential celebrities, if you do it right, you can use the artist's cross-border gimmick to operate it, increase your popularity and freshness among the readers, and maybe you can get some unexpected gains." Then there was a pause, and it was bad again. He smiled and said, "For example, you can use TV Asahi's channels and the like."
"Is it necessary to be so exaggerated?" Qin Heqing said speechlessly.
It's not that he wants to fight for something as a writer, it's just a whim and he wants to write his Chronicle of the Warring States Period as a souvenir. It's such a big deal, it makes him feel a little stressed.
"Yes! Why not. After all, this is your first book (Qin Heqing: it may be the last book)...Even if it is the last book, it is necessary to promote it! You can't write it with effort , just to fill the library warehouse? I don't agree." Machida Sonoko retorted unceremoniously.
"...Okay, then do as you say, anyway, I don't know much about it." Qin Heqing said helplessly.
"Leave it to me!" Machida Sonoko promised, patting her chest full of energy.
Then the two discussed some writing matters, and Machida Sonoko could no longer suppress her inner thoughts, and ran back to the house to formulate the publication and publicity plan of Qin Heqing's first work "Imagawa Yoshimoto's Ambition" for tomorrow. And the next few days work to start preparations.
...
There was no more trouble overnight, and the time came to the next day in a blink of an eye.
morning.
After washing and eating, the two of them went to the Immortal River Library where she worked in the car of Machida Sonoko with their laptops as they had agreed yesterday. After printing out the manuscript and handing it over to the other party, Qin Heqing knew what was going on. After leaving the Immortal River library, he was free again.
"Phew, it's no wonder Shi Yu has such a headache when facing Sister Yuan Zi. Sure enough, it's not without reason." Qin Heqing, who felt reborn, said with a sigh.
Who would have thought that she would be so persistent when she was busy with work?
Anyway, Qin Heqing was caught off guard by her, and had to devote some energy to dealing with the novel.
"It seems that writing books cannot be stopped."
Then he didn't stay outside any longer, and returned to the clubhouse by means of transportation.
"This is..." Qin Heqing looked at the strange woman who appeared in his office and asked suspiciously.
She is not very old, she looks about 20 years old, her clothes are very simple, and she can even be said to be a little malnourished? His face is pale and blood is rarely seen. In addition, he has an open mind that can calm the world, giving people a feeling of pity for me, and even a feeling that he is easy to bully.
But Qin Heqing searched the memories in his mind, but failed to find out her identity information.
So I can be sure that this is a woman I don't know, or even have never seen.
