Chu Li held up her cell phone and rushed back to the bedroom, calling "Zhechuan" all the way. At this time, the man was leaning against the crib, holding a notebook and reading emails. Chu Li stood on tiptoe, put her hands around his neck, and nudged his neck with the tip of her nose.
"What do you want to do now?" Feeling the warm and moist breath spraying on the back of her neck, the man put down his notebook, turned around, hugged her firmly, and put one arm around her waist.
Chu Li has now completely mastered the way to act coquettishly with her husband. She stood on tiptoe, stepped on the back of his feet, and rubbed his chin with the tip of her nose: "Husband, Liang Chonglang wronged me. He felt that I was the one who planned the discovery of "The Last Whale of the Pacific" from beginning to end... Come on, I don't know a shitty Turkish, I can only use a little bit of PS, I don't know how to edit videos or embed text at all, how could it be me! I take care of our son under your nose every day, and he is so well-behaved that he has become a baby!"
Zhuchuan reached out and grabbed the two thin arms that were tightening around his neck, and lowered his eyes: "Oh, so? What do you want to say?"
Chu Li stood on tiptoe and pecked the man on the lips: "I feel so wronged."
Zhuo Chuan sneered, and the color in his eyes became darker. Instead of anger, there was a hint of teasing... He bent down and chased Chu Li's lips, biting her lower lip: "You feel wronged, what should I do?"
Chu Li rolled her eyes in her sockets and licked the man's lips flatteringly with the tip of her tongue: "...Can I fuck him?"
Zhuchuan said "Oh" again: "What if I say no?"
Chu Li raised an eyebrow, stepped on the back of Zhuchuan's foot, and increased the force of the foot, squeezing it.
Zhuo Chuan sneered: "Then why are you asking such a question? Why are you coming to me to show off your goodness..."
"Isn't this your book? I have to tell you what happened in the end. I will take action after you have communicated with Mr. Herman and found a good buyer," Chu Li twisted her waist in the man's arms, winked at him, and said shyly, "I am on your side, and you have to be on my side too - I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing to completely tear Yuanyue Society apart. You don't want such a good book like "The Last Whale in the Pacific" to become Mr. Herman's next "Sky Tracks Carved by Dragons"... This book is so important to you, we have to make it a good one, right?"
Chu Li’s words made Zhuchuan stunned.
I was so angry just now that I was thinking about how to make trouble for Yuanyue Society.
Being reminded by Chu Li at this moment, Zhuochuan found that it seemed to be the case: Herman didn't know about this yet. If he knew, it would definitely not be possible for Yuanyue Society to just apologize or pretend to be dead and let it go. What he wanted was definitely not to see this version of the book appear again.
Regardless of whether Yuanyue Publishing House is willing to recall the 450,000 books that have already been sold, there are still 550,000 books that have just been printed and bound in the printing factory. Let’s not talk about how much loss will be caused by recalling the 450,000 books. If the 550,000 books that have not yet been sold are also in their hands, Yuanyue Publishing House may really have to pawn their underwear for the loss.
Based on the original price of 55 yuan per book, the printing cost alone is 10 million yuan.
Ten million!
And the expected profits that were sacrificed, in the eyes of the greedy boss of Yuanyueshe, rounded off to as much as 100 million (……).
In the face of such a huge accident, the choice of Yuanyue Society is definitely to crash and kill people every day, waiting for the readers to slowly make a fuss on their own. When the fuss is enough, they will pretend that nothing happened, push an editor out to apologize, end it, and continue selling books.
……………………It’s not like we haven’t done this before.
But if they really succeed in doing so, then it will be just as Chu Li said, "The Last Whale of the Pacific" will become the second "Trails in the Sky Carved by Dragons". No matter what this means to Herman, this is definitely not the situation that Hirokawa wants to see.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that Yuanyue Society must die.
After being reminded by Chu Li, the man's eyes changed rapidly. After thinking seriously for a while, just as she hoped, he decisively joined the camp she hoped he would be in. He raised his hand and patted her butt: "Go ahead, don't give me face, beat me to death."
…
Then I went to the first ceremony.
After a year of recuperation, she still hasn't entered into combat mode so quickly. She took a look at this [Say to Yuanyue Society] and has been @Yuanyue Society since she posted the Weibo, hoping that Yuanyue Society will give a response... Chu Li took a deep breath: These naive kids don't even know that Yuanyue Society is very capable of being a shrinking old turtle, and they actually expect that by posting a few Weibo posts, Yuanyue Society will give up the printing fee of one million books and the huge compensation, and compensate them according to their conscience?
The idea is good.
The way is wrong.
These young people need a military advisor.
Chu Li pondered for a while, because he was not sure about the operator of this Weibo, so he opened his own Weibo account and sent a private message to the [Say to Yuanyue Society], fanning the flames and trying to get close to him -
[To buy fans, please add Q7758520: Here is a wave of submissions. I am the former editor of Yuanyueshe. As for the editor of this matter, Ahxian, I know the inside story.
Because she herself is also an author (the one who wrote "Give You a Feather of Red"), when she worked at Yuanyue Publishing House, she liked to give advice to authors and did not listen to their opinions. She once caused an author to change his writing style drastically and become her own, and other authors accused her of looking down on others.
...But I think this can also explain why even though Teacher Herman was so opposed to "The Sky Tracks Carved by Dragons", she still insisted on mentioning this matter. 】
After the first gift was delivered, there was an unexpected reaction immediately.
[Speaking to Yuanyue Society: Oh my God?! Is this "Axian" actually "Xiandao"? I've also watched "Give You a Feather of Red"?!
This news is explosive!
Although I kind of believe what you said, we can't spread it without any evidence. What if the information is wrong? It will be disadvantageous to our rights protection!
For example, do you have any evidence that someone had reminded them of Mr. Herman's personal sensitivity before? If they had really been reminded, then they knew they were wrong and made a mistake, which was really excessive. 】
Chu Li: "..."
Damn it, if the other party doesn’t believe me, how can it be okay?
...But on the other hand, this is a rational rights defender, not a chuunibyou who fights for the sake of fighting.
Chu Li carefully analyzed the other party's reply. The other party was obviously in a state of "I want to believe what you said but I dare not believe it". Chu Li glanced at his own Weibo account, which looked like a zombie account selling fans... So he silently slapped himself: It was because you were afraid of being hunted down by the readers of Zhaochuan before that you didn't get a Yuanyueshe work account certification!
………………Forget it, just treat this as a warm-up exercise.
Chu Li thought about it, turned around and went to find Yu Yao. Like Chu Li, Yu Yao did not sign any "Industry Confidentiality Clauses" like Lao Miao when he left, so he was a free speech person... Chu Li asked Yu Yao indirectly about his opinion on Yuanyue Society's move. As expected, everyone had their own person to flirt with - no one knew what kind of whispers Suo Heng had said to Yu Yao, but now Yu Yao was very angry about Liang Chonglang kicking Suo Heng off the autograph booth!
When Chu Li paused and asked Yu Yao "Do you want to deal with them?" Yu Yao replied with one word without hesitation: Do it!
The two quickly reached a consensus and twisted it into a hemp rope.
As for why Chu Li found Yu Yao - of course it was because Yu Yao had a Weibo account with the certification of a Yuanyue Society staff member. Now Yu Yao's Weibo certification is "former editor-in-chief of Yuanyue Society's "Moonlight" magazine", which coincides with Chu Li's previous introduction to the "Tell Yuanyue Society".
So Chu Li successfully got Yu Yao's Weibo account.
Then go find that [Tell it to Yuanyue Society]——
【Yu Yao: I changed to a larger size, do you believe it now? 】
[Yu Yao: This is not my account, it belongs to my former boss. But I can use this account to talk to you, which also explains my identity, right? I am also the former editor-in-chief of Moonlight magazine.]
【To Yuanyue Society: …………………………66666666666666 Oh my god! 】
[Said to Yuanyueshe: This time I believe it, ahhh, my God, you are the editor of Moonlight magazine! ]
【Yu Yao: “Former” editor.】
【Yu Yao: To be honest, I was the one who negotiated for the book "The Last Whales of the Pacific". I personally went to Istanbul that year just to get this book.
But later, because I couldn't stand the fact that Yuanyue Publishing always ignored the dignity of authors and the rights of readers and treated everyone's intentions as shit, I resigned before the book was completed...
Oh, by the way, I was also the one who reminded Yuanyue Publishing House thousands of times before leaving that Hermann's works must not be associated with "Trails in the Sky Carved by Dragons". After all, I knew the powerful relationship between them. How could I dare to go to Turkey to meet Mr. Hermann in person before some basic information was prepared?
There is no Chinese translation of "Trails in the Sky Carved by Dragons". Given that the three characters "Herman" are a natural international IP in themselves, how could there be no Chinese translation - there must be something wrong when something is not right!
...Unfortunately, no one listened to me.
If I had known that this book would turn out like this, I probably shouldn’t have resigned early. 】
Chu Li typed the above words without blushing or feeling nervous.
After Zhuochuan coaxed his son to sleep, he came out of the room and saw this scene. He lay on the sofa and watched Chuli say confidently, "How can I dare to go to Turkey to meet Mr. Herman in person before I have prepared some basic information?" The man thought of her confused look after listening to his popular science lectures that night in Istanbul. He sneered and commented sincerely, "Shameless."
Chu Li: “Hehehe.”
Zhu Chuan reached out and pinched her earlobe: "Why are you using Yu Yao's ID?"
Chu Li: "She didn't trust me when she used my account. My account is not authenticated and my identity is unknown."
Zhuo Chuan: "You should use my number, then she will believe it."
Chu Li: "...Wow, after receiving a seven-digit copyright fee, Mr. Chu Chuan personally tore up his own book in order to cancel his contract with Yuanyue Publishing House and switch to Xindun Publishing House to earn a second wave of royalties? Do you want to be on the front page of tomorrow's news?"
Zhuchuan: “…”
Pushing away Zhuchuan's head, signaling him to stop giving bad ideas and just shut up and play dead, Chu Li continued the conversation with the rights defender. At this time, the other party believed what she said, and the play was well done -
【Speaking to Yuanyueshe: Surprisingly... there is so much information, I really don't know what to say. 】
【To Yuanyue Publishing House: From what you said, it seems that Yuanyue Publishing House has disrespected authors and ignored readers’ rights more than once or twice?】
【Yu Yao: Well, you probably don’t know. It’s an old trick of Yuanyue Publishing House to refuse to respond and play dead to the end. You can check the cover binding error of Suo Heng’s “Little God” published by Yuanyue Publishing House. What they did at that time was——
"He played dead to the end, refused to pay compensation, and later pushed an editor to take the blame as an explanation."
This is Yuanyue Society. It is useless for you to defend your rights like this now. Yuanyue Society will definitely ignore you.
They are so familiar with the trick of pretending to be dead. I am very surprised that if you want to protect your rights, why don't you contact Mr. Herman? I remember that he has an official Weibo account. Although he himself cannot read Chinese, his assistant can read it. 】
[Said to Yuanyue Publishing House: ... Actually, we have thought about contacting Mr. Herman, but after thinking about it, we don’t want this incident to affect Mr. Herman, nor do we want him to have a bad impression of China. ]
Chu Li: "..."
What the other party said can be said to be a very standard fan mentality: If there is any problem, we will deal with it, don't bother us.
Chu Li completely understood this mentality, however... Chu Li rolled her eyes. If she didn't let Herman know about this, he would be even more angry when something happened later, right?
Moreover, what Herman holds in his hand is probably the sharpest dragon-slaying sword. At the critical moment, when he wants to chop Yuanyue Society into pieces and feed it to the dogs, how can he leave this sword unused?
——The author is a weapon in the editor’s hands.
【Yu Yao: But if this matter is not resolved, and Yuanyue Society is allowed to continue to deceive people... when the matter is done and everything is settled, Mr. Herman will probably suffer even greater harm.】
【Yu Yao: None of us want to see "The Last Whale of the Pacific" become the second "Sky Tracks Written by Dragons". Mr. Herman has been deceived by this in the past. I have no doubt that I am deeply disgusted by this! 】
【Yu Yao: If you, as fans, and I, as the person who was once responsible for this book, cannot do anything for Mr. Herman, then who else can stand up and defend his rights?】
【Yu Yao: Our ultimate goal is to have Yuanyue Publishing House recall all books, destroy them, and return us a world-class new work without any blemish——
At least I personally hope that "The Last Whale of the Pacific" can be the pinnacle of Herman's series of works! 】
Enlighten them with emotions and move them with reason.
Here, Zhu Chuan, who was standing behind the sofa as a doorman, watched Chu Li typing away with his head down. The more he watched, the more he felt something was wrong. He pondered for a moment and said slowly, "Did you just lie to me in the same way?"
Chu Li paused while typing, raised his head, and said seriously: "...This is truly inspiring."
Zhuo Chuan reached out and pinched her face: "You emotional liar."
Chu Li's face was grabbed by him, and his mouth was split open: "Speak nicely, isn't this for you? Do you want to be blacklisted by Mr. Herman? Don't you have any sense of which team to stand on?"
Zhuo Chuan let go of her tender little face and rubbed it for her: "...Okay, okay."
During the conversation between the two, Chu Li was anxiously waiting for the other party's response. This time, the other party did not reply to her immediately, obviously weighing the importance of the matter -
Finally.
Ten minutes passed.
The sound of private messages on Weibo has begun to rise——
【Say to Yuanyue Society: Okay, in this battle, we will not let Yuanyue Society play dead, we must defend our rights to the end! 】
【To Yuanyue Society: So what should we do next? We listen to you.】
Looking at the phone, Chu Li raised the corners of his lips: The first wave of comrades have successfully arrived at the battlefield, and the clarion call of war has officially been sounded!
