"Sister Nuan, if you believe in my professional ability, I think it's better for you to follow brother Feng's advice. He also wants to maximize your interests and set up his own studio. He can get more royalties than he can earn by signing a contract with Tang. Although you are Tang's boss, you don't need this money, but you can be a boss and a member of others Workers always have more initiative than workers, don't they? "

"I know the truth, but I'm worried..." Su Nuan glanced at Tang Yifeng. "If I didn't win the Hugo prize, it would be all right. But if I did, I would go back and find out that you proposed to terminate the contract with me. Would the board of shareholders question your motives?"

"No, before the Hugo Award was announced, even if they doubted my motivation, there was no evidence, and the full copyright of dimension reduction was still in Tang's hands. As long as the copyright of dimension reduction was not lost, they would not say anything. After all, the winner of the award was dimension reduction. Currently, this work is also of real market value, and you are still a This is the only finished book for new writers. No one can guarantee that your later works will always be so popular. So it's a pity to lose your contract, but it's not enough for them to oppose me. "

"Then you are so confident in me that my future works can achieve the same height as dimension reduction?"

"Of course, don't forget that I'm the closest person to you. In order to write a good sentence, a plot, how much work you have to do and how much information you need to check, I have witnessed it with my own eyes. Such a hardworking person can't succeed even without talent. Moreover, the existence of dimension reduction also proves that you have much talent in writing than other people."

Su looked at Tang Yifeng's shining eyes, which were filled with trust and pride. She bit her lips, and finally nodded with determination, "OK, I'll listen to you."

Tang Yifeng reached out and patted Su Nuan on the back of his hand. "Just concentrate on your writing. I will help you arrange the staffing of the studio. Tang Yun is also watching the external contact work. You don't need to spend extra time on the operation of the studio. At the end of each month, the financial department will write a report on the financial situation of the operation of the studio and send it to you. You just need to Take a day or a half to look at the report. "

"Well, I see!"

Since Tang Yifeng said so, Su Nuan was relieved. So it seems that no matter whether she signed a contract with Tang or opened her own studio, the content of the work has not changed.

Seeing that the studio has reached a consensus, Tang Yun points to the invitation letter in front of Su Nuan and asks, "sister Nuan, do you go to this award party?"

Su looked down at the time and place above his eyes. The time of the award ceremony was set to be a week later. "If you go, how long do you need to stay there?"

"Plus the time spent on the road, it will take four days."

"Four days? So long? " Su wennuan looked down and thought, then looked up to Tang Yun. "Is it a rule that you have to attend? Will it affect the final result if you don't participate? "

"I don't think so. If the author can't attend the party, he can let the representative attend the party."

"In this case, I won't go. I need to hurry up to write the script. I can't leave for such a long time. If I can, can you go for me, ah Yun?"

"Me?!" Tang Yun pointed to himself with a surprised face. "Sister warm, you have to be careful. As far as I get the news, this award is basically yours, and Hugo Award is the top honor in the science fiction circle of the whole Europe, America and even the whole world. As the first Chinese female writer to win Hugo Award, once you appear in the party, it will be one night It's very helpful for your future career development to become a household name. "

"I understand these principles, but my own character is not that good at making public appearances, and I don't want to let so many people know that I am the author who should be hidden behind the story. There's no need to be a public figure, at least I'm not prepared for this kind of thinking now. Moreover, I always feel that an author is known by too many people. This It will weaken the characters he wrote, and also affect the readers' understanding of the story and the characters. "

Su says her real ideas, so over the years, many of the authors who signed up with her have gone to Weibo plus V certification. Even when the live broadcast is booming, she has opened a channel for live broadcast on the reading end. However, no matter how many people come to persuade her to increase her exposure in this way, so as to increase her subscription, she is unmoved.

It's the arrogance of the literati. It's her indomitable. She hopes that readers will like her because they like her stories and the characters in her stories, not because they like her.

The latter, in her view, is a kind of contempt for her story and the characters in the story, which comes from the author himself, and as the writer of the story, she is not allowed to do so.Tang Yun took a close look at Su Nuan's expression on his face. "Well, since sister Nuan's mind has been decided, I'll go to the party for you. By the way, after winning the award, no matter whether it's foreign media or domestic media, they will interview many questions about you. Sister Nuan, do you want me to convey them to these media and readers?"

"There's nothing to say, so please help me to thank them for their support and love. As for the questions about my works, you can answer them from your professional perspective. If it involves privacy, try not to answer them. I hope to weaken my sense of existence in front of the public as much as possible."

"Weaken the sense of being?!" Tang Yun didn't expect that Su Nuan would have such a requirement. Su Nuan's achievement at this age is also considered to be a young achiever. Shouldn't young achievers have high spirits and hope that the whole world likes her?

"Yes, it's enough for readers to know that I am the author of this book. They don't need to know who I am and what I usually look like."

"However, once the list of winners of Hugo Award is published, there must be many journalists who want to interview you. At this time, increasing the exposure will be of great benefit to you and the future development of the studio. Does sister Nuan want to give the benefits that are easy to get to others?"

"After all, the benefits obtained by this way are not a long-term plan. As an author and a screenwriter, we still need to talk about the works. Ah Yun, it's hard for you. Try to block it as much as possible. Besides, I'm very busy with my work recently, and I really don't have time to deal with it."

In the process of Su Nuan's talking with Tang Yun, Tang Yifeng didn't interrupt until Su Nuan clearly said what she thought, and then he looked at Tang Yun. "Tang Yun, you can do it according to the meaning of warmth. Warm is right. It will be a long time in the future. It's the real power to use the works well."

Tang Yun looks at Su Nuan and Tang Yifeng. He sighs helplessly, "well, since you both choose this, what can I say? Only respect your decision. "

With that, she looked down at the time on her watch, picked up her chopsticks and swept the last bit of rice in the bowl into her mouth. Then she received all the documents on the desk into her briefcase. When everything was done, she later carried her briefcase, picked up her coat and put it aside, ready to go out.

"Brother Feng, sister Nuan, I also asked a foreign publisher in the afternoon to talk about the foreign copyright issue of your follow-up story of dimensionality reduction. Now it's almost time to go first. You eat slowly."

With that, she went out of the room. Sun yuannuan looked at Tang Yun's figure from the bamboo curtain and raised a faint smile. "Ah Yun is really interesting. I think maybe we can make friends."

Tang Yifeng brings a chopstick of soup and baby dishes to Su wennuan's bowl. "Tang Yun is a girl I've grown up with. Apart from being a kid, she's a little better. She can't pick out any other problems. She was chosen as your agent at the beginning, and I think you two can get along well. Now you like her so much, which shows me The choice was right. "

"Your eyes are always good, and where can you go wrong!" Su Nuan laughs and praises Tang Yifeng. "By the way, a Yun just said to talk about the international copyright behind dimension reduction, but didn't you just say that the full copyright of dimension reduction is in Tang?"

"The full copyright of dimension reduction is true in Tang family, but this refers to the part that you have published at present. As for the part that has not been published, the copyright is still in your own hands, or in your studio's hands. Now Tang family's project department hasn't found you, but when the award of Hugo Award is announced, I think they should come to you."

"Ah ~" Su Nuan sighed in embarrassment and looked at Tang Yifeng. "You don't want to tell me earlier about this. There will be a project meeting in the afternoon. What attitude do you think I should get along with them? Originally, I wanted to be a colleague, but now I don't know if I'm a colleague. Besides, if I'm familiar with them, then I'll have a question about the follow-up copyright , they came to talk to me directly. How can I answer that? If it is only related to my own interests, it doesn't matter how I deal with it, but after all, there are 30% of a Yun's draw! "

Looking at Su warm's sad expression, Tang Yifeng grins.

Su warm turned his head and stared at Tang Yifeng. He stretched out his hand and twisted it on his waist. "What are you laughing at?"
