Chapter Five Hundred and Twentieth All in the Mind

"What should I do if the system forces me to copy books ()" Find the latest chapter!

"Master Chungang, Mr. Lin, let me introduce you. This is Ms. Caitlin, the vice president of our Random House. President, this is Mr. Li Chungang, the author of "The Lord of the Rings."

"Nudhao! Nihao!"

"Hi, President Caitlin."

Jiang Qingyu, as the person in charge of reception, naturally serves as a "bridge" to quickly introduce each other's identities to both parties, but when time is limited, it is natural to choose the most important status first and start introducing. Naturally, Random House It's Caitlin, the vice president, and it's enough for Li Chungang to introduce the two of them.

After learning about the identity of Li Chungang, the author of "The Lord of the Rings" and that he is from Huaguo, Caitlin even took the time to learn a few words of Mandarin in order to greet him personally this time, but the effect...is not as good as Don't open this mouth.

It’s just that every foreigner who has learned Mandarin will have a kind of self-confidence. They can’t hear their pronunciation mistakes, and they think that they are learning according to the people who taught them. Makes people laugh.

Fortunately, Li Chungang and the others have all undergone professional training, and they can usually hold back their laughter, unless it is really too funny!

"Let's go in first."

It is not a problem for so many people to stand at the entrance of the headquarters of Random House and be watched like monkeys. Under the active guidance of Jiang Qingyu, a group of people entered the company and went to the prepared meeting. On the way to the office, I also deliberately passed by their office.

After reading it, you will feel-

In fact, there is nothing too special about Random House!

Just like the headquarters of most domestic novel website companies, the office area is a separate desk, equipped with a computer, and then editors work on it to handle daily work. It is nothing more than a larger office space and a larger number of employees. A little, and there are a little more hurried figures walking around.

The simple visit, to be honest, dispelled the tension that the title of the world's No. 1 commercial publishing house brought to Li Chungang and his group.

It doesn't matter whether you are the number one in the world, or even the number one in the galaxy, as long as the author of the work is me and the copyright is in my hands, then you will always be the one who is invincible!

—

People from both sides sat opposite each other on both sides of the meeting room.

Compared with Li Chungang and his small team of 8 people, the number of people at Random House is relatively small, including Vice President Caitlin, Secretary Peggy, and their old friend Thompson. There are only 5 people.

But after all, they are playing at home and have home court advantage. Even if the number is slightly smaller, it cannot be underestimated.

It’s just that Li Chungang and the others are a bit confused. The reason why only 5 people came to Random House is not that they think it’s unnecessary to have the home court advantage, but that they don’t want to be too fanciful and be overwhelmed by too many people from the beginning. Knowing the inside story, the most important thing is to guard against two old opponents.

"First of all, I would like to thank Mr. Li Chungang and everyone for being invited to our Random House. You don't know, when I read "The Lord of the Rings" for the first time, I was completely attracted by the content of the book. After finishing it, I was even more amazed, especially the unrestrained imagination, the epic and magnificent scenes, and the unheard-of races such as dwarves, elves, orcs, etc..."

This is the first time that Li Chungang has heard a foreigner praise someone in English with his own ears. This Biliba! It’s a lot of words. I’m afraid he used all the words that can be used as a compliment.

If it were another young man who didn't have social reading, he would probably be inflated after such a bragging.

"Ms. Caitlin praised."

Everyone carried the bridal sedan chairs, and it was not easy for Li Chungang to speak politely on the scene.

"I heard from Thompson that there are three volumes of The Lord of the Rings, and the one submitted to us is only the first one.

I wonder if Mr. Li has already conceived the next content? Caitlin still couldn't hold back and asked the answer she wanted to know most urgently.

Because this is related to how the two parties will cooperate in the future.

If only the first book of The Lord of the Rings was the case;

If the "Lord of the Rings" is complete in three parts, it is another completely different situation.

heard the words.

Li Chungang didn't answer directly, but pointed to his head with his right index finger, and then calmly said: "The follow-up content is here!"

"you mean……"

"What I mean is that everything that follows The Lord of the Rings is in my head, and I can create it in a short period of time as long as I want to."

"Mr. Li, are you serious?"

They have never experienced Li Chungang's ability to update hundreds of thousands of words a day. According to these foreigners, it takes a long time for normal writers to prepare and conceive when they want to complete their creations. It's a long time before everything is done before starting to write.

And someone like Li Chungang...

Writing a book is as easy and simple as drinking water. This is the first time I have encountered it, and it is only natural to have doubts!

"Sister, please show Ms. Caitlin our preparations."

"Okay." Lin Meng and the others had expected that foreigners would not be able to understand Li Chungang's way of writing books before they set off for the United States, so they made preparations in advance.

"The Book of The Lord of the Rings"*3

This is what Li Chungang summed up from the pile of books related to the setting of the book "Lord of the Rings" since he gathered and set off.

If you just read the first part of "The Lord of the Rings", there may still be many places in the fog, then no matter who it is, just read this book by the way, which is also written by Li Chungang. ", you can see the bright moon through the clouds and mist, and fully understand all the settings.

There's even a folded full map of "Middle-earth."

The map was hand-painted by Li Chungang himself, and there was no need for that, so only one copy was prepared. On the contrary, "The Book of Lord of the Rings" specially prepared three copies for Caitlin and Thompson.

"this!"

"Is this a world map!?"

"OMG!"

When the map folded into the size of a tofu block was unfolded and completely covered the entire conference table, the five representatives of Random House were stunned, because everything displayed on the map was completely clear. From large and small scattered mountains, to the confluence of rivers in the southeast, north and west, as well as the geographical locations of various forces and major races, etc...

It is impossible for ordinary people to draw such an extraordinary world map!
