Chapter 539: Weapons of Literary Scholars
"Brother, I always feel that you look a little familiar. It seems to be that who... Hiss! That who is coming, I suddenly can't remember what I said."
"Hey! This is a bit uncomfortable."
"Husband, you must have misunderstood someone. How do you know someone who came back from New York, USA?"
"..."
This is a direct flight from New York, USA to Yanjing, China.
At this time, more than 90% of the seats in the economy class on this flight were Chinese nationals, and Li Chungang was one of them.
—
According to Lin Meng's idea, let Li Chungang stay in New York for one or two more days, then let his secretary Liu Siqian book a comfortable first-class ticket and then go back slowly, instead of being crowded with so many people in the narrow economy class . I don’t mean to look down on the economy class by saying this, but it’s out of consideration for Li Chungang’s personal safety. You must know that with the end of Random House’s global signing conference in the past few days, the word “Li Chungang” Reports can be said to be overwhelming all over the world.
The cover photo most used by media reporters is still Li Chungang turning his body at fifteen degrees, shaking hands with Caitlin, vice president of Random House with one hand, and holding the photo of signing the contract with the other.
In addition to the three words "Li Chungang", the new work "The Lord of the Rings" which is highly praised by Random House is the most anticipated.
in just a few days.
The "Most Anticipated List of Overseas Literary Works" in foreign countries has not even occupied a place in the original list, and it suddenly entered the list and soared to the seventh place. Some people may feel a little pity that they did not enter the top three, let alone top the list, but if you know what works are ranked in the top ten of this list, they will not think so.
And Caitlin's plan was quite effective.
At least because of the fact that Keppel Ron created contradictory and contradictory hype topics, and even gave Li Chungang and the others a feeling of explosive effect.
Just as there is Weibo in China, there is Twitter in foreign countries.
In fact, Li Chungang had never been in touch with Twitter before, and the first contact was to complete the account registration with the help of Jiang Qingyu. At this time, there was only one follower in his account. The man is Keppel Ron this guy.
When he saw the content of the original text posted by Keppel Ron on Twitter, Li Chungang felt that the Associated Press reporter who asked the question was somewhat polite. You must know that no matter the words used in the original text of this guy,
Or the whole tone and attitude can be called extremely bad, even...
Some of the words used are all insinuating their own racial discrimination!
For example, "Li Chungang, the clown, go back to Asia and eat bananas."
People who don’t know why it seems that it’s no big deal to go back to Asia to eat bananas, and they often eat bananas on weekdays, but if these people know that Asians or Chinese people in some overseas countries and regions will be called by racial discrimination people "Yellow monkey", perhaps these people will no longer think so!
But in the United States, a federal country where everything is about the word "freedom", the freedom of speech on the Internet is like a wild horse running wild, not to mention a single word in the many tweets sent by Keppel Ron There is no positive racial discrimination, even if there are people who don't raise officials and don't investigate, who has so much free time to take care of these shitty things, ZF officials can't wait to spend every minute and every second to curry favor with those capitalists to get more for themselves oil and water.
This is the "powerfulness" of literary authors.
Ordinary people use weapons to hurt others, but the weapon of literary authors is "words", using words can hurt people invisibly!
At the beginning, Li Chungang used his newly registered Twitter account to go to Kepel Ron's comments in resentment, wanting to "match up" with him in person, but unfortunately, he posted three times in three days, and the comments were all wrong There was no news like a stone sinking into the ocean.
Only now did he realize what it was like for those readers to comment on his Weibo feed on weekdays.
"If there is nothing else, I will go home first."
"Mr. Li Chungang, is there any place where our hospitality is not good enough that you are so anxious to return to China?"
"I have nothing to dissatisfy with eating and lodging in a five-star hotel, but after staying here for three or four days, I found that it is meaningless for me to stay here. I might as well go back to China."
"But……"
Jiang Qingyu felt a little embarrassed by Li Chungang's request, because Caitlin gave him an order to keep the other party in New York as much as possible. It has only been less than four days, so it may be a bit difficult to cross. Moreover, the last few days were the busiest time for Random House. Not only the people on Caitlin's side, but even the people on Oswald's side had to act because they felt threatened.
According to the results of Caitlin’s discussion with her subordinates, it is best for Li Chungang to stay in New York and continue to complete the creation of the next content of "Lord of the Rings", and then they can correct errors, review manuscripts, etc. as soon as the creation is completed. Work.
"Let me tell the truth, staying in New York is actually not convenient for me to create the follow-up content of "The Lord of the Rings". Some outlines and details, as well as various plot settings are all saved in my computer at home. Without them, it is very difficult for me to rely on memory alone, I don't care, I'm not worried that if the time can't catch up..."
"Okay, then I'll report to President Caitlin first." Jiang Qingyu agreed with a bitter face.
Li Chungang has already talked about this, this level, he is a small editor of Random House, and he is the kind of intern, how dare he say anything, if he is annoyed, he ran to Caitlin to say a little bit My own fault, the opportunity to become a regular at the end of the internship period is probably "frozen"!
"Go ahead boldly, just say what I said!"
After speaking, Li Chungang patted Jiang Qingyu on the shoulder very caringly.
After Jiang Qingyu left his hotel room, he turned around and opened the laptop in front of him, and clicked on the game called "PUBG" and the Chinese name "Jedi Survival". One of the few pleasures I discovered during my time in the United States.
The main reason is that it is not like the game environment of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds in China, which is called a fight between gods and Ragnarok because of the plug-in. A rookie like him who is the leader of the game can only say that he has no game experience at all! On the contrary, it was only after he came to the United States that he realized that the game environment in foreign countries is very clean. The most important thing is that foreign players are still addicted to food, even at his level, they can play here with gusto.
