Chapter 547 Black Fish House
Professor Wen saw Ning Jing and smiled, "Jingjing, I'm really sorry for not getting up this morning and being a little late. I'm really sorry for having you come to see me."
Professor Wen apologized twice. The first one was that he did not come to school today and did not ask for leave, so he asked Ning Jing to come and apologize to him.
There is a second apology. It is because yesterday he visited all three other publishing houses in Kyoto except Guangda, but was unsuccessful.
Professor Wen felt very disappointed about this, Guangda!
I really don't want to cooperate with Everbright. At worst, I can just give up his position as deputy editor-in-chief.
Why should I care about these things when I’m old? As long as the children can use the new textbooks, everything is fine.
However, this is just Professor Wen's idea, and he needs to discuss it with other teachers in the office. After all, this is their hard work, and everyone has put in a lot of effort for this set of advanced mathematics textbooks.
Professor Wen and Ning Jing returned to school together, but Professor Wen looked very worried on the way.
At noon, Professor Wen called the other five teachers and Ning Jing in the office.
After talking about what happened yesterday, the other five teachers in the office felt really lost.
I didn't expect this to happen.
Everyone was silent, only Ning Jing felt that it was meaningless. She was just looking forward to when Qiao Bensi's publishing house would be established so that she could give them a surprise.
At this time, the phone in the office rang.
Zhang Yang, who was closest, picked up the phone and said, "Hello, Qinghua University."
The silent atmosphere in the office was interrupted, and everyone looked at Zhang Yang at the same time, wondering who was calling.
Zhang Yang was a little angry when he heard the voice inside, but he finally said politely, "I can't make the decision on this. We need to discuss it."
Zhang Yang, although he is a very quiet person, has no idea what tact is. Why is he so tactful today?
After Zhang Yang hung up the phone, he said with a grim expression, "It was a call from Everbright Publishing House."
Zhang Yang saw that his colleagues wanted to hear what was said, so he had no choice but to tell them the content of the call.
It turned out that Everbright Publishing House knew that Professor Wen had gone to another publishing house yesterday and was rejected, so they called now just to make their presence felt.
At the same time, it was explained that their Everbright Publishing House could print all the books they wanted before school started in September, but the editor-in-chief's name needed to be ordered from their publishing house.
And because the book publishing time is urgent and requires a lot of effort and money, their publishing house requires that the content be provided free of charge.
Zhang Yang was a little angry when he said this. He originally wanted to use the money from this publication to buy his sister a better environment and go abroad to have a look. He heard that the medical level abroad is very high.
Didn't expect it?
Professor Wen doesn't really care about intellectual property rights in publishing. The only thing he cares about is the authorship. This set of books has already been written and typeset by Ning Jing, so there's no need for revisions. Even the deputy editor-in-chief was a bit reluctant, and now he's even asked to be the editor-in-chief.
Even Professor Wen, who has a calm temper, was angered.
Zhang Yang added, "Zuiyou Guangda Publishing House wants to invite us to Black Fish Restaurant for dinner and discuss publishing matters."
Professor Wen also wanted to contact Everbright to see if there was any room for maneuver.
Only Ning Jing felt that it didn't matter, because nothing would succeed anyway. This showed her confidence in Qiao Bensi.
