Chapter 199

"No," Wang Jian said to himself, pressing his hand on his temple, "you... Let me slow down first."

A moment later, he raised his head and looked incredulously at Tom and the young editor behind him.

"Did you really rewrite Stephen King's work?"

The young editor looked at the serious president and general manager, swallowed his mouth and nodded slowly.

"In the reply email, I attached the" xiaobaiwen writing guide " Wang Jian felt that his voice trembled a little.

The young editor whispered "Hmm" for a while, and his face was as pale as ashes.

Lying trough!!!

For a moment, Wang Jian didn't know what to say.

He is now in a state of mind, which is quite broken.

Since the publication of the last few days in 1975, which publishing house has rejected Stephen King's contribution?

Only the former Red Empire State Press, on the ground of nationality, politely refused once.

Now, of course, we need to add a website.

And guiding Stephen King how to write...

that's something that even Nobel Prize winners dare not do.

This TM is the only glory of the website!

Wang Jian really wants to hold the young editor in front of him and ask him in a loud voice: "how can you be so excellent?"

After a while, the young editor raised his head to consider whether to dismiss him.

Tom looked at Wang Jian's expression, and with the tacit understanding of his long-term cooperation, he probably guessed what he thought.

Tom hesitated for a moment, or to persuade: "Wang, now there are a lot of manuscripts on the website, editors inevitably have work mistakes."

"What's more, the editor has also unearthed many popular novels, among which I'm really a wizard is in the top ten of the paid list."

"I think he should be given another chance."

"I'm a great mage"?

Wang Jian turns on his computer and looks at the pay list.

The cumulative payment for this book has exceeded US $4 million.

Well, this young white editor, at least, has made a profit of $2 million for the website.

He pondered for a while and reprimanded, "in the future, we should consider various factors in our work. We can't just rigidly follow the review standard."

Hearing this, the young editor was relieved. He quickly admitted his mistake, "yes, president."

"I remember."

Wang Jian waved and asked the editor to go out to work, while he sat in his office chair thinking about how to deal with it.

"Wang," Tom whispered, "Stephen King has a contract with us, and legally his" fog "has to be published on the website."

"Why, if Stephen King doesn't publish on the website, are you going to sue him?" Wang Jianbai gave Tom a look.

"This matter spreads, is simply sends the black material to the entity book publishing house."

"The most famous American writer was rejected by the website," Wang said with a sigh. "It's not Stephen King who's disgraced. Is it us?"

"What about that?" Tom thought about it for a moment, and thought it was ridiculous enough.

Wang Jian thought for a moment and sighed, "I'll call Mr. Stephen King first to find out."

He picked up the phone and couldn't dial the number for a long time.

It doesn't matter to be sneered at by this famous writer. Wang Jian felt that he could bear it.

But what if I hear something bad?

You know, many famous writers are very proud.

And Stephen King is old and has a history of heart disease.

"If the most famous writer in the United States is angry with the editor of his website..." Wang Jian shakes his head and shakes this terrible idea out of his mind.

After half a day of mental construction, he took a deep breath and pressed Stephen King's phone number.

After the two electronic tones of "Du, Du", the phone was picked up.

"Hello, Stephen King," a low baritone said. "This number is... Wang Jian?"

Fortunately, fortunately...

the biggest farce in American literature did not appear because of its own website.

Wang Jian quickly changed his tone and said with a very apologetic attitude: "sorry, Mr. Stephen King, the editor of the website made a major mistake."

"Confuse your manuscript with others' manuscript."

"If you don't mind, we'll publish" fog "on the website and arrange the best recommendation places."

"Wang, I thought about it." Stephen King's voice said, "I may have fallen into the usual creative inertia of writers."Huh?

Wang Jian is worried. Is this to give up serial novels on the website?

Although the worst situation did not appear, but also missed the opportunity to let the website appear in the eyes of traditional writers!

Wang JianZheng was ready to persuade him, so he heard Stephen King say, "before I wrote a certain type of work, I would summarize the characteristics of that type of work."

"Then try to highlight this part in your own book."

"Before contributing to" fog ", I only saw that there was no limit on the number of words in online novels, and the author had a great degree of freedom."

"But after receiving the rejection, especially after seeing the" xiaobaiwen writing guide ", I realized what the core of online novels was."

For a moment, Wang Jian was a little confused by this turning point and asked casually, "what is it?"

"Ha ha," Stephen King said with a smile, "it's to let readers take the lead and experience a cool life that they can't experience in real life under various settings."

"What do you mean?" Wang Jian still didn't quite understand.

Stephen King's firm voice said, "fog is no longer just an expansion, but a major change."

"Something heavy is no longer the main content, but the setting of the environment."

"Its theme will be similar to the last version of the count of Monte Cristo."

"But..." Wang Jian hesitated for a moment and asked, "such a big change is close to re creating a novel."

"The particularity of online serialization..."

"is to keep updating every day." Stephen King said with a smile, "it took me six days to create the flash, despite the complicated preparatory work."

"Not every writer. It's George Martin."

"Can I post the news that Mr. Stephen King is going to publish his works on the website on twitter?" Wang Jian couldn't wait to ask.

"Well..." Stephen King pondered, "it should be."

"After all, I have a complete outline, a detailed outline."

Then, he joked, "there's also" xiaobaiwen writing guide ". It's so straightforward."

Wang Jian was a little embarrassed to hang up the phone and fell into a short meditation.

"What's Stephen King's" Mists "like under the guidance of xiaobaiwen

"And... Will American popular literature be affected?"

"How about Wang?" Tom looked at Wang Jian and asked nervously.

Wang Jian's attention returned to the office.

He took a sip of coffee and said, "inform Jack Dorsey, famous writer Stephen King, that his work is going to be published on the website."

"Let's use this topic full of artistic nature to launch twitter and stir up the last wave of heat!"
