Chapter 46

Wall arrived at the doraca teahouse five minutes earlier than Kevin, and he had already made a reservation.

"Oh my God, you are much younger than in the picture. I can't believe that those mature writing styles come from your childish appearance." Wall said in surprise.

"Thank you, Mr. wall. Before that, many people said the same thing. " Kevin said.

Yes, whether it's Ernie or Hudson or raven. When they see Kevin's real person, they all sigh like this. After all, Kevin's looks are far from his writing style.

"Ha ha, it's no surprise. The articles you write are more like those written by an old man who has gone through the world, such as meditation on a broom and on affectation." Wall said.

When wall finished, he immediately called the waiter and gave Kevin a menu to order whatever he liked.

English people drink morning tea, generally want a pot of warm tea, and then eat some snacks, biscuits and chips and so on. Kevin has been used to it since he was born here. So he just ordered two snacks and biscuits and left the rest to wall.

Wall's purpose this time is just to meet Kevin. It's not about eating. So he just ordered some at will, and then gave it to the waiter to take it down.

It took about ten minutes for the waiter to bring the two order items to the table.

"Kevin, have you ever thought about writing with a magazine or a newspaper? That's the kind of thing you write in a column? "

Wall said when everyone was about to eat.

"I haven't really thought about that, but if I can, it's a good choice." Kevin said.

Kevin, a columnist, has heard this name countless times in his previous life. He once dreamed that he would become a columnist one day, and then write every day to earn a lot of money. But at that time, his contributions were not published in any magazine or newspaper, let alone a column for him.

Now listening to wall's reminder, he suddenly feels that this is also a good choice. After all, I have too many works of British writers on earth in my mind, especially short prose poems and so on. These are classics. I can't put them down if I write one. So he doesn't want to waste it.

"Really? Have you ever thought of writing a column in our time magazine? Can we have a special column for you? As long as you like. " Wall said.

This idea was thought about by Wall last night. Since the last time on affectation made time's sales soar, he felt that Kevin was a talented and marketable writer. If he can set up a column in time, it will be a good thing for time. He believes his colleagues will support him.

"This..."

Kevin did not expect that wall would suddenly come up with this move. His hesitation was not because he was afraid that he could not write well, but because he was thinking about whether he should agree to wall's invitation.

Wall saw Kevin's hesitation, he immediately said“ Mr. Kevin, if you have any requirements, please feel free to raise them. I think I will try my best to satisfy you? Is it about contribution fee? Please rest assured that I will give you the highest treatment of contribution fee. "

"No, no, it's not about the fee. It's just that I have a request. " Kevin explained.

"What requirements? Mr. Kevin, please. You know, we in England don't like to beat around the bush. " Asked wall.

"That's what I wrote for my column. You can't change a word. It has to be published according to my full text. If you can do it, I think I'd like to write a column in your time magazine Kevin said.

Kevin made this request because he was worried that the classic articles he had written would be changed by the editor of the other party and would lose the charm of the article itself. You should know that these articles can stand the test in Britain on earth, so there will not be too many problems.

"Is that all?" Wall continued.

"Yes,

This is the only one. As for the contribution fee, Mr. wall, you can do as you like. I don't think you will treat me too harshly Kevin said frankly.

"That's great. There is no problem at all. I can promise you that we will not revise a word of your article and publish it in the original Wall said excitedly.

Since reading "meditation on a broom" and "on hypocrisy", wall has reason to believe that Kevin's articles can be completely free from revision. Therefore, he did not hesitate and made a promise immediately.

"Well, that's good. I can write to you any time. " Kevin said with a slight smile.

Wall's idea had been agreed with the leaders above before he came here. Since the sales volume of these issues of time magazine has soared with the efforts of wall, they fully respect the idea that wall wants to ask Kevin to write a column.

Kevin has agreed to wall's request, which makes him very happy. He thought Kevin would hesitate for a few days or think for a while, but he didn't expect things to go so smoothly. It was hard to suppress the joy on his face.

"Thank you, dear Kevin. I think the name of our column is" Kevin talking about life ". How about it?" Wall advises.

"No, Mr. wall, I think it's too monotonous to talk about life simply. Can we call it" Kevin talking about things " Kevin thought for a moment, then said.

"What did Kevin say?"

"Yes, about love, about ideals, about life, about men and women, about many things. Because I'm not sure what type of articles I write in each issue, so that I can represent all of them. " Kevin explained.

As soon as wall heard it, he thought it was very good. As soon as he hit it off, he decided to call it "Kevin talking".

"Well, the name of this column is" Kevin talks about things. ". Ha ha Wall said with a smile.

According to the current publishing situation of time magazine, they only publish once a week, which means Kevin has to write an article for Time magazine every week.

Of course, this is not difficult for him, as long as there is time, even an hour to write an article is not a problem. Not to mention a week. Finally, the two agreed that the time of this column should be half a year. If Kevin doesn't want to write after half a year, he can make a decision at any time. Of course, if time thinks that Kevin's column has no market six months later, it can also make a decision not to renew his contract with Kevin. Anyway, at that time, both sides had the right to choose, which was good for both sides.

After the two reached an oral agreement, Kevin officially gained another identity, that is, a columnist. It's also an identity that I always wanted. Now it's so easy. This book has been supported by many friends recently, which makes papaya very moved and happy. Thank you very much. No one is easy in this era. So I really appreciate it. Although there are many shortcomings in this book, papaya has been working hard to improve. Really, I worked very hard to write again. Thank you. I wish you all the best.
