Chapter 98: The Rise of Great Powers (Subscription Requested!)
"Hello, would you please provide us with your address now?"
The female voice on the phone was soft, with a soft glutinous Jiangnan flavor, and expressed her intention simply and clearly: "We at Xinchang Publishing House feel that your works have great potential and want to sign a traditional publishing contract with you......
Li Qing was not moved by the sincerity of the other party, but asked strangely: "I don't seem to have submitted my manuscript to your publishing house in Taiwan......
"That's ......"
The other party explained with a smile: "Yawen Publishing House has business dealings with our publishing house, and your work is strictly forbidden to be published in the mainland because it does not comply with the regulations of the recent mainland publishing authorities, and is mixed with superstition, feudalism and other information. However, although the way out of simplified Chinese publishing has been eliminated, our traditional Chinese publishing is not www.biquge.info, and you can rest assured that your work fully complies with the relevant regulations of our Taiwan publishing house......"
Yawen Publishing House is indeed one of the publishers that Li Qing has submitted to before.
Li Qing didn't speak, he didn't have doubts about the other party's words, since the other party said it thoroughly, he naturally wouldn't hide anything from him in this matter.
It's just that there is inevitably a trace of disappointment in my heart.
He made great efforts to delete the erotic passages in "The Quest for Qin" that did not conform to the regulations of the General Administration of Publication of the Mainland, and personally revised and added every sentence and paragraph as appropriate, just to make it more in line with the regulations of the mainland publishing house and the aesthetics of the authorities, but he never expected that in the end, he would still be busy in vain.
I'm a little frustrated......
As for traditional Chinese publishing, Li Qing is not particularly impressed, although it seems that the traditional Chinese market is thriving, and the quotation is also very high, but Li Qing knows that in the next ten years, the sales volume of traditional Chinese publishing will gradually decline.
Judging from the present, letting Taiwanese people remember "The Story of Seeking Qin" is completely less real and precious than letting the young people of the mainland remember "The Story of Searching for Qin".
The huge market of 1.4 billion people in the future is no joke.
Although it is in the third world, in this huge market, it can give birth to Sina Weibo, which is comparable to Facebook and Twitter, QQ, an instant messaging software that crushes MSN, Alibaba, a global shopping site that is more powerful than eBay, and Huawei Electronics, which is called Apple and Samsung......
Countless examples can prove that as long as you please the mainland market, you are currying favor with the future, which is much more cost-effective than investing in Taiwan and Hong Kong, which are now known as the four economic tigers of Asia!
More than ten years later, mainlanders are a generation with feelings. They will retain deep nostalgia for things that have crossed their childhood and youth, such as robot cats, such as Journey to the West, such as Mr. Jin Yong's works, such as Stephen Chow's movies.
The additional value of those that are related to these things is naturally immeasurable, and it is no exaggeration to call it a gold-absorbing weapon.
If the current mainlanders can remember "Xun Qin", then many years later, "Xun Qin" can become a gold-absorbing machine!
Li Qing would rather ask for less royalties than let "Xun Qin Ji" be published and promoted in traditional Chinese in the mainland market.
But God doesn't make it beautiful......
Simplified publishing is impossible, so now, we can only publish in traditional Chinese first.
After thinking about it, Li Qing told the other party his address, and after agreeing on the agreed place, Li Qing was ready to clean it, and after having a meal, he went to talk to the editor of Xinchang Publishing House about the cooperation process.
It's just that today's mobile phones seem to be particularly busy.
As soon as he took a shower and walked out of the bathroom, Li Qing found that his mobile phone was ringing non-stop.
"Which one?" Li Qing wondered.
"Hello!" a young female voice said politely, "May I ask if the old man 'Qinglian Sword Immortal' is here? We are staff members of the Hong Kong Culture Publishing House, and we would like to exchange our publishing intentions with Mr. Qinglian Sword Immortal about the work "Searching for Qin". ”
Hong Kong Culture Press?
Li Qing paused, and asked with a somewhat surprised expression, "Where did you get my manuscript?"
"Again, your manuscript?"
Cai Afen on the other side was stunned, then reacted immediately, and said in surprise: "Ah! Are you the Qinglian Sword Immortal? That's right, because the manuscript of "The Legend of Qin" could not pass the review of the General Administration of Publication of the Mainland, so the Tang Dynasty Publishing House recommended this novel to our Hong Kong Culture Publishing House......
Immediately, Cai Afen said excitedly: "You are Mr. Qinglian Sword Immortal, right? I didn't expect your voice to be so young! Hello sir, my name is Cai Afen, I am a staff member of the Hong Kong Culture Publishing House, I am your loyal reader, our team has arrived at Guangdong Airport, where are you now? We can start some discussions on the masterpiece "Searching for Qin", and in terms of price, we will definitely satisfy you!"
Li Qing was thoughtful.
Although the mainland has been restricted, it seems that this book has been recognized by many publishers, and has been recommended to publishers in Hong Kong and Taiwan, which shows that the quality of the novel "Seeking Qin" can still stand the test of history!
If nothing else, it is estimated that Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam and other places will also rush to negotiate contracts in the future......
Thinking of this, Li Qing smiled, from the point of view of vested interests, it seems that it is not published in the mainland, and it is barely acceptable to the past at present.
After informing Cai Afen of his location, Li Qing hung up the phone.
After lunch, estimating the time for Jinling to fly to the capital and Yuezhou to the capital, Li Qing waited for the next trip and began to prepare the military songs to be performed by the troops on Chinese New Year's Eve.
He thought about it slightly, and when he thought of the country, he couldn't help but think of the rise of a great power.
When I think of the army, I can't help but think of the Predator who gallops on the battlefield.
Li Qing suddenly felt that there was a song that seemed to be quite appropriate at this time.
He flipped through the lyrics book and found that the song had not yet been written, and he was immediately refreshed.
Picking up the score, Li Qing wrote the lyrics in the lyric book according to his memory while composing the music.
"The wolf smoke rises, the rivers and mountains look north, the dragon flag rolls, the horse grows neighing, and the sword qi is like frost"
"The heart is like the water of the Yellow River, and in the past 20 years, who can resist ......" (to be continued.) )
