Chapter 71 A new fairy tale short story!
Although Yu Mian thought about it for a long time, he finally felt that he might not be playing fair.
He just wanted to give all Star Beast readers equal love!
And what's wrong with that?
However, regarding the serialization of animal science short stories and the selection of the next article, Yu Mian still planned to calm down and think about it.
After all, he did not expect the response to be so good at first, and even so many Star Beast readers expected him to write a whole series about the animal world.
[Yu: I will prepare for a while, and I will give you a reply after I make a final decision. Besides, isn't the submission for "Star Beast World" full again? I think the articles in the new issue are also very well written. 】
In fact, since "The King of Tianshan - Snow Leopard" broke the convention of popular science articles about star beasts, and for the first time popularized relevant knowledge from the perspective of the protagonist becoming a star beast and approaching the star beast world, it has indeed opened up a new trend.
In particular, the editor-in-chief Wellington no longer sticks to the identity of the contributor, but only decides whether to accept the article based on the quality of the article itself.
Therefore, in the new issue of the star beast special issue, several rather novel and interesting star beast articles and essays were published, and the popular science knowledge was also quite interesting.
So Yu Mian finally asked the editor Shakes to convey his intention of not publishing new articles for the time being.
Although Star Beast World regrets this, it can still understand it. They said that as long as Mr. Fish Soup Noodles has new manuscripts, they can publish them at any time, and the royalties will be given according to special levels.
Moreover, compared with the behavior of the furry guys trying to compete for manuscripts, many magazines have also contacted Yu Mian, vying to introduce their own magazine characteristics, hoping that Yu Mian, the author, will take a look at them.
What if they get a work by Mr. Fish Soup Noodles, maybe it will be a new round of explosion?
[Crispy Shark: Regarding these magazines that took the initiative to contact, I have also compiled a list for you, and there is a brief introduction to the magazine at the end, which may help you understand faster. ]
The next second, Shax sent a file attachment, and Yu Mian was shocked by the huge list after clicking to open it.
[Fish: No way, this is a bit too much?]
If I really want to write an animal series, I am afraid I can write until the end of time, not to mention the commissions for these magazines with different themes?
[Crispy Shark: Well, of course you can just take a look. I have listed the ones with better reputation and quality, or those with higher importance, in the front.] What
Shax didn't say is that the editor-in-chief is a little nervous about when Mr. Yu Tangmian's new book will be published on the World Online, and once tried to hint to himself not to let Mr. Yu Tangmian devote too much energy to short stories.
After all, since the completion of "Contract Marriage" and "Eternal Night Rose", and "Reborn Star Soldier King" is mainly sold in single volumes on a regular basis, the traffic of the World APP is indeed not as explosive as before.
[Yu: Okay, I'll take a look, but I may not be able to write it, after all, the new book manuscript is still in preparation.]
Fortunately, Yu Mian's reply reduced the pressure on Shakes from the editor-in-chief and deputy editor of the Huanyu editorial department.
"Teacher Yu Tangmian said that the new book is already in preparation, and the next focus will definitely be on the long series, but publishing short articles will make the pen name more popular, and there will definitely be more readers coming to Huanyu to read books in the future."
"Okay, that's what you said..."
In fact, the deputy editor also knew that it was the author's freedom to write whatever article Teacher Yu Tangmian wanted to write, but it was a bit nervous to see his own author surrounded by so many magazines.
"Should we give Mr. Fish Soup Noodles a higher share of the new book contract? That way you don't have to worry too much about Mr. Fish Soup Noodles being poached."
Shax looked through the author data in the background and asked at the right time.
The authors of Huanyu have different levels, so naturally there are different contract levels. According to the data of their own authors, this time they can directly change from the bronze contract of newcomers to the diamond level.
"Well, let's raise it to a higher level, but can the contract time be longer?"
The deputy editor naturally cooperated with this.
Even now, looking back at Shax's behavior as a new editor who tried his best to save the situation and sign Mr. Fish Soup Noodles, the deputy editor can only sigh that this may all be arranged by fate.
It was precisely because of his attitude of trying to smooth things over that Shax, a new editor who had been disappointed with the company, instinctively became closer to and trusted Yu Mian more than the company Huanyu and Mr. Yutangmian.
"Alas, although it is indeed a pity, Mr. Yutangmian said he would not go to the carnival, and Shax really did not persuade him at all."
The deputy editor sighed with his hands behind his back, and was still very sorry that Mr. Yutangmian could not attend the Huanyu Author Carnival.
"But don't you think that Shax is more like a personal editor of Yutangmian, not considering the interests and perspective of the company at all?"
Editor Lei, who came in with materials, looked at Shax who had just left with a silly smile, and couldn't help but beat the deputy editor.
"Well... Lei, although I know you still have some opinions about Shax, I still hope you can change your mindset."
However, the deputy editor who used to like to smooth things over, this time, he talked to Lei seriously.
Lei:?
"Although on the surface, Shax is not acting in the interests of the company... but people are all kind-hearted. If the relationship between Mr. Fish Soup Noodles and the editor is harmonious enough, isn't it indirectly the best outcome for our world?"
The deputy editor's slow words made Lei blush as he left the office.
Damn, Shax, this kid, is really a fool with good luck!
However, the deputy editor who watched Lei leave didn't say that he was stupid enough to offend Mr. Fish Soup Noodles, otherwise, those readers alone would tear him apart on the spot.
Although Shax was a bit stupid sometimes, is being too smart a good thing?
If he wasn't a "stupid", he probably wouldn't have used up his only quota and gambled with a bunch of old editors for an author he had no confidence in...
Yu Mian flipped through the magazine materials in his hand, but he didn't know about these things in Universal Company.
"Star Sea Boy"?
Because after Yu Mian flipped through it for a long time, his eyes finally fell on this magazine.
In addition to the fact that the conditions offered by this magazine were quite sincere, the biggest reason was probably that this was a magazine for teenagers and children.
Yu Mian has recently seen Huo Yan holding "Star Beast World" and reading it in the study room. During the chat, she found out that this little guy actually doesn't dislike reading...
"It's mainly because it's too boring. My brain is really not enough!"
Huo Yan has been a poor student in Chinese class for a long time.
"If I can be like Da Xi and Graydo in "Star Beast World", I will definitely read it every day! And this issue of "Star Beast World" is also very good. My cousin said it's very good!"
Huo Yan, who was holding his homework, couldn't help but squeeze next to Yu Mian and chattered about what happened in school.
It was when Yu Mian got the new issue of "Star Beast World" from Huo Yan that she found that this Star Beast science magazine has really changed its style.
It has become more easy to understand. Of course, the professionalism has not decreased. It's just that the magazine itself has been divided into very reasonable sections. The interesting star beast stories in the front are very attractive to children.
However, "Star Beast World" itself is not a special children's reading material. It only temporarily assumed this responsibility.
"That is, if there is a good story, you will also like to read it?"
Yu Mian recalled the magazine's commission inquiry and asked Huo Yan, and immediately got Huo Yan's very serious nod.
"Of course! I also like Mr. Fish Noodle's "Star Soldier King" very much! Everyone in our school now wants to be a super tough guy like Lin Mu!!"
After Huo Yan's rambling, Yu Mian found that the literary development model before the interstellar world actually had a blank to a certain extent, that is, children's reading.
Many of them are almost preachy, so it is not surprising that children are difficult to attract.
Otherwise, these little guys would not be so obsessed with "Reborn Star Soldier King", which is not a children's adventure story.
Love stories like "Agreement Marriage" and "Eternal Night Rose" are more suitable for older readers.
Especially since there is a car in his "Eternal Night Rose"...
"No, you can't read this yet!"
So when Huo Yan found out that Huo Ting actually bought a complete set of Mr. Fish Noodles' books and put them on the bookshelf, his eyes lit up and he wanted to open it curiously, but the next second he was stopped by Yu Mian with a flushed face.
"Ah? Why, my cousin also said that I can't read it. Why do you two say exactly the same thing? Did you secretly collude in private?"
Huo Yan looked at him with disappointment and pity.
"Your brother also said that you can't read this book?"
Hearing this, Yu Mian's eyes widened a little.
"Yes, my cousin said that I'm not old enough yet."
"..."
Yu Mian's weird face became more and more angry.
Could it be that Huo Ting also secretly read "Eternal Night Rose" in private! ?
So he knew that he couldn't show the cars in the extra chapter to children?
Then his previous note commented that Yu Tangmian was a bold and new author. Could this "new" have a hidden meaning? ?
[Have you read all the books on the bookshelf? ]
[Yes, I have. - Huo]
So after a conversation, when Yu Mian got this confirmation note, he felt so embarrassed that he was fuming.
Help... I thought Huo Ting would never touch it, why did this guy flip through it! ?
It seems that Huo Ting noticed Yu Mian's unwillingness to resist giving books and his interest in novels to a certain extent, so he would buy a batch of new novels and put them in the study from time to time.
Although in the office, when Secretary Hals saw the pile of books with colorful covers, he felt that his young master's symptoms were getting worse.
It was fine that he bought skin care products before, but now he has started buying these romance novels! ?
If he hadn't taken them all home in the end, Hals would have almost suspected that the young master had some mysterious friend.
"But are you really going to read these by yourself..."
Hals couldn't help but ask after enduring for a long time.
"These? These are not available for the time being."
Huo Ting took a look at these new novels and didn't explain much to Hals.
"These are not available for the time being?"
"Well, but I've finished reading these."
And these books are clearly the complete works of Fish Soup Noodle Teacher.
Ever since Huo Ting learned from Huo Yan that the man in the study also liked Mr. Fish Noodles' book very much, he would unconsciously open the book and read a few pages.
After all, Huo Yan's words were still echoing in his ears.
"He likes to tell me stories, and he also told me that when Gredo left, he actually liked and was reluctant to leave Da Xi, so he finally returned the mirror to Da Xi because he thought that when he saw the mirror in the future, he would be reminded of Da Xi's departure... Woohoo, I think this explanation makes sense..."
Although Huo Yan's nagging words were always meaningless, Huo Ting could indeed imagine from Huo Yan's excited narration that the man in the study was holding a book and carefully explaining the plot in front of Huo Yan.
Are you particularly close to children?
And I really like reading.
"What houses are for sale in the central city recently? Not too far from the old house, the nearby environment should be quiet and safe, and it is best to be close to the water. You can make a list and send it over."
"Yes, got it."
Just as Secretary Hals was about to leave with a choked expression on his face, he unexpectedly received the latest instructions.
"Close to the water? The most beautiful water scenic area in the central city is the Starry Sky Lake."
As the name suggests, Starry Sky Lake is not very special during the day, but once night falls, the lake will appear colorful and dazzling lights and shadows like the starry sky, and occasionally you can even see shooting stars passing by.
In addition to the scenic areas open to the public, there are also many private residences with very good privacy by the lake.
It's just that the price is really high, and most of the residents of the private houses are of very special status.
"And there are hot springs inside. Didn't the old man like to go there to fish and soak in hot springs?"
"Hot springs?"
Although Huo Ting didn't know that there were such things in the Starry Sky Lake, regarding what Secretary Hals mentioned.
"Yes, the hot springs in the scenic area have always been famous!"
If it is a hydrophilic species, will it like hot springs?
Huo Ting looked thoughtfully at the area where the Starry Sky River was located on the map.
And just after the furry auction on the Star Network finally came to an end, an extremely strange thing happened in the auction warehouse.
"Stop——! What are you doing!?"
When a group of staff opened the warehouse and prepared to take out the "Daxi and Gredo", they were collectively shocked to find a girl in a white dress struggling to carry the oil painting and move it.
When Belle heard the noise outside the warehouse, she wanted to turn around and run away in panic, but she found that the warehouse had been locked.
So she was caught in the end!
#The protagonist of the supernatural event! #This news also made the headlines again, and the popularity of this auction from beginning to end reached a new peak again at the end.
[What!? ? The thief was found? ! Is it true? He was going to secretly take the painting away before picking it up? ]
[Damn it! This is too much. How could he take away our "Daxi and Gredo"? This is very immoral behavior! ]
[It's too courageous. It must be severely condemned...]
However, when the hot discussion on the Internet was exposed with the on-site footage of the "suspect", everyone's attitude was instantly paused.
After all, the girl in the picture was wearing a white skirt, hiding behind the painting "Daxi and Gredo" with an aggrieved and panicked look, as if she would be bullied by the strong security guards around her in the next second.
The white skirt was stained with dirt on the ground and looked a little shabby.
[Ah, this... this person doesn't look like a thief? Are you sure you didn't catch the wrong person? Q///Q looks pretty! ! ]
[Yes, she looks so innocent, and can her thin shoulders carry such a large painting? I'm asking you! ]
[Strange, she looks a little familiar, I think I know this girl... ? (P.S. I definitely don’t want to chat you up.)
And after one of the people said “she looks familiar”, countless interstellar netizens soon said that they seemed to have seen this girl before!?
It was not until the Frakton Gallery released another canvas that had become blank that this rare interstellar “paranormal event” made it to the headlines of the morning news and became something that countless people talked about with relish.
Because this girl actually ran out of the painting!
After all, the previous painting "Girl Looking at the Morning Star" has always been a popular work of the Frakton Gallery, and it was not until this time that it was also auctioned and placed in the warehouse with a group of exhibits.
Doesn’t this count as the exhibit trying to steal the exhibits!?
"In fact, this is indeed a very rare and special species. It has been absorbed in various ancient paintings and has been praised by people, thus gaining spiritual nourishment, so it has been hidden in this painting in the Frakton Gallery."
The expert who was invited to explain the principle to the vast number of interstellar people and avoid panic was Lu Wei. However,
because Lu Wei himself concealed his identity as a Zerg, In the process of interpreting this, he rarely showed his sharp tongue.
He just calmly combined what he had read in books about this special race in the past, and explained it in ancient books in response to the reporter's questions.
Although this still made countless interstellar residents eat melons with relish.
Oh my God, it turns out that such a special species was recorded in ancient books?
[If I praise her, will she gain spiritual nourishment? ]
[I am willing to praise her, why would I touch the derivative oil painting of Mr. Fish Soup Noodle? ]
[Could it be that same-sex attraction? Was this the same person who made me cry when I read Mr. Fish Soup Noodle's book before? ? Then I fell in love with Gredo and Daxi in the painting! ? ]
And among the various speculations on the Internet, some of them did accidentally guess a little truth.
"I don't want to be separated... I like Daxi and Graydo very much."
Everyone in the gallery was at a loss for a moment. They didn't know what to do with the girl in the painting, and she was finally temporarily placed in the lounge next to the warehouse.
The relevant security and police did arrive.
But when asked about the reason, Belle held her own frame a little nervously, and it took her a long time to explain this sentence.
In fact, she was staying in the Frakton Gallery just fine. But she
didn't expect to be sent to the warehouse for auction this time.
Belle, who had no common sense, instinctively wanted to take her favorite "companion" away from the warehouse to avoid the fate of being auctioned, but she didn't expect to be caught red-handed.
"This, this is simply a perfect news headline!"
Regardless of what the police thought, the reporters present were recording their news headlines quickly with shining eyes.
The scene in front of them was definitely a collection of several traffic kings.
The absolutely beautiful girl in the painting! The animal novel by the fish soup noodle teacher!! The oil painting of the master sold at a sky-high price!!!
"Then how should this be defined? In a sense... well, it's not considered sneaking into the warehouse. The person was in the warehouse, and the work didn't have time to be taken out of the warehouse..."
The federal police who arrived at the scene were helpless.
"Maybe we should contact the buyer?"
An was also a little troubled by this.
After all, who would have thought that the source of the supernatural incident was actually a collection in his own gallery.
However, this painting had never been included in the auction plan before, and it was always placed in the display cabinet as a fixed exhibit in the gallery.
The mysterious buyer from Juli Group finally said that he didn't care, and maybe he should ask the fish noodle teacher what he thought.
He also said that he bought the painting just to donate the money to the relevant snow leopard protection organization, and as for the painting, he once considered giving it to the author of the fish noodle soup teacher himself.
He felt that the fish noodle teacher who could write Daxi and Gredo was the best person to own this painting.
When this reply was made public, it set off a huge wave on the Internet.
[What? Just to protect the snow leopard, you are planning to take a picture of the painting and give it to the author. What courage and skill! ? You, the boss of Juli Group, are not actually a snow leopard! ? I really have doubts...]
[Okay, if other people buy this issue of "Star Beast World", it can be sold for 30 star coins, but if it is a snow leopard reader, then it must be doubled! ! ]
[But Mr. Fish Soup Noodles never shows up. There is no Mr. Fish Soup Noodles on the list of this year's Universal Carnival. Will he really come forward to accept this painting? ]
"Ah? How come the final decision falls to me?"
Yu Mian, who was called out from the air and became the focus of the entire Star Network, was a little caught off guard when looking at the girl in the painting in the news photo.
This is really the most peculiar interstellar reader I have ever met.
Although, if it weren't for her book, wouldn't the girl in the painting have sneaked out to read the novel and not been discovered?
Living in a painting and being noticed and praised doesn't sound offensive or destructive, does it?
"But this is really interesting."
Yu Mian read the background information about "The Girl Who Sees the Morning Star" in the news, and thought of the commissioned work for "Star Sea Boy", and suddenly had a bold idea.
If this painting is used as an illustration with a story, can the other party also collect the mental power triggered by the readers' praise?
Moreover, since the release of many of Mr. Yu Tangmian's works, his popularity has soared and he has indeed received some small opinions from female readers.
[That is, why are the protagonists in Mr. Yu Tangmian's books all boys! We girls also want a protagonist~】
