Become famous another day

Chapter 255 Vacation

It’s the National Day holiday soon.

During the seven-day holiday, many classmates made appointments to go out together, take a trip or something.

Lu Yanhe doesn't have this time, he will start recording "Young Days" on October 3rd.

This is also the last recording. When this recording is completed, "Young Days" will be completed.

Before that, Lu Yanhe still had to talk to Yemai.com and Jiangyin Publishing House about the rest of "Jump Up".

Chen Siqi came back on the night of September 30th.

Lu Yanhe went to the airport to pick her up.

Because he was afraid of being photographed, Lu Yanhe didn't even get out of the car and waited for her in the airport parking lot.

He borrowed the car from Chen Ziyan. He couldn't drive, so he borrowed a driver from Chen Ziyan.

The first reaction of both people was to be angry.

Lu Yanhe was dark.

Chen Siqi is also black.

But Lu Yanhe is a bit darker.

Chen Siqi laughed and asked, "Why are you so dark? Didn't you wear sunscreen during military training?"

"No." Lu Yanhe shook his head, "There is a drama later. I want to play a guard, and I need such an image, so I didn't play it."

"It looks more heroic when it's dark." Chen Siqi looked at Lu Yanhe's face and said seriously.

Lu Yanhe nodded, "I also think he is more handsome than before."

"You weren't so narcissistic before." Chen Siqi complained immediately.

Lu Yanhe smiled and touched his nose.

Chen Siqi: "Don't touch your nose all the time, it looks very silly."

Lu Yanhe put down his hand and asked, "How are you doing at Jiangguang University?"

Chen Siqi: "It's good. As long as I stay away from Liu Wei'an, I'll be fine."

Lu Yanhe asked: "Do they know you are back?"

"I know." Chen Siqi said, "Two people expressed strong opposition to my unwillingness to go home to stay, but my attitude is very firm. If the objection is invalid, I will stay in the hotel."

"Aren't you going to go back to live again?" Lu Yanhe asked in surprise.

"Since we have decided to be independent, why do we have to force ourselves?" Chen Siqi said, "I earned hundreds of thousands from just one copy of "Jump Up", which is more than enough to support me for a few years. They can no longer try to control me by controlling me. economic artery to threaten me."

Lu Yanhe also laughed when he saw Chen Siqi's cheerful look.

Chen Siqi has been resistant to Liu Wei'an for a long time, and this is the first time Lu Yanhe has seen Chen Siqi mention her in such a wanton tone.

"Jump Up" gave Chen Siqi confidence.

Lu Yanhe is very happy that "Jump Up" can bring such confidence to Chen Siqi.

Chen Siqi said: “After the success of the first issue, it was much easier for us to invite manuscripts than before. In the past few days, I have sent invitation letters to several writers and teachers, and they all responded to us enthusiastically. Willing to contribute to us.”

Lu Yanhe was also very happy when he heard Chen Siqi say this.

Chen Siqi: "In the future, I still want to invite one or two public figures to write articles around our theme in each issue. What do you think?"

"Okay, but I don't know many artists, and the number of people I can invite later is also limited." Lu Yanhe said, "I may be like you later, and I can only invite people to see who is willing."

Chen Siqi nodded and said: "Well, our self-media is also planning to open an interview column to interview celebrities from all walks of life. Among them, entertainers in the entertainment industry are a very important part. I will also use this method to send invitations to them. of."

Lu Yanhe was a little surprised, "Is the media account of "Jump Up" planning to do an interview column?"

"Yes." Chen Siqi nodded, "This is also a very important channel to expand the influence of "Jump Up". If we only rely on one issue to accumulate readers, it will be difficult for this book to be sold to markets other than our target. The crowd saw that most of the publicity targets of Jiangyin Publishing House and Yemai.com had been covered in the first issue of publicity, but there were still many potential readers who might not even know about this book, or Even if you have heard of it but have not read it, through interviews with celebrities in various fields, through their popularity and influence, "Jump Up" can be known to their followers."

Chen Siqi's idea is certainly correct. However, interviewing is not a very simple matter.

Lu Yanhe asked: "Who are you going to invite to do the interview?"

"I originally wanted us to be responsible, but we have no experience, so I plan to invite well-known journalists to lead us in this section." Chen Siqi said, "They will lead us to do two or three issues. Let’s start doing it ourselves again.”

Lu Yanhe was originally a little worried whether Chen Siqi had overestimated his ability by doing this - interviews are not just about randomly asking the other party a few questions, but when he saw Chen Siqi's fighting spirit, he put his worries aside. .

Lu Yanhe knew Chen Siqi, Linyu, and Xu Zijun. No matter who they were, they were all hard-working people with strong learning abilities. Lu Yanhe had full confidence in them, as long as they wanted to do something well. , it will definitely be done well.

Of course, this kind of trust is somewhat idealistic, but idealism doesn't matter.

Lu Yanhe wanted to write the book "Jump Up", firstly because he liked it, and secondly because of Chen Siqi.

All he had to do was support Chen Siqi's idea.

Chen Siqi has always been a person who works hard to implement whatever ideas he has.

She has fully proven this beyond any doubt.
-

October 1st, National Day.

When Li Zhibai got up from bed at ten o'clock in the morning as usual, he yawned and walked out of the room with his slippers on. He saw Yan Liang sitting in front of the TV, looking at the screen and writing something seriously. .

"What are you doing?" Li Zhibai asked.

Yan Liang said: "Watch the movie and take notes. The school assigned us homework, requiring us to submit a movie-watching experience every week and find a movie to analyze and study the performances in it."

"Uh..." Li Zhibai opened his mouth, "Okay, it seems that I have also written such an assignment."

"You copied it from the Internet." Yan Liang said immediately, "I remember, I watched you copy it."

Li Zhibai: "..."

He immediately turned around and asked, "Where's Lao Lu?"

"He went out early in the morning." Yan Liang said, "Chen Siqi came back from Jiangguang."

"Haha, you're such a shameless bitch. He ran away as soon as his girlfriend came back." Li Zhibai snorted coldly, "Then he won't come back for lunch, then?"

"Well, I also want to go out for lunch." Yan Liang said.

"Ah? Where are you going to eat?" Li Zhibai asked immediately, "Just leave me alone?"

Yan Liang said: "My classmates have made an appointment to have dinner together at noon. Do you want to go with me? If you want to go, they will definitely welcome you."

When Li Zhibai heard this, a look of resistance immediately appeared on his face, "Forget it, I'll eat the whole bunch of people myself."

Yan Liang nodded and continued watching the movie, taking notes from time to time.

Li Zhibai brushed his teeth, washed his face, looked at his own bird's nest in the mirror, thought for a while, pulled it twice with his hands, smoothed it a little, and walked out of the bathroom with satisfaction.

Forget it, go home today.

With this thought in mind, he took the car keys and went out first.

"I'm going home." Li Zhibai said to Yan Liang.

"Then will you come back tonight?" Yan Liang asked.

"It depends on the situation. We'll talk about it later." Li Zhibai waved his hand and left.

He drove off, but luckily the road was blocked.

After driving for a long time, I didn't even drive a kilometer.

During the holiday, all the students nearby came out and there were so many people.

The traffic jam made Li Zhibai angry. He was getting annoyed when he suddenly saw a familiar figure walking past on the zebra crossing in front of him.

Li Zhibai's eyes immediately widened.

Officer Qiuling? !

Since they moved, they rarely see Officer Qiuling.

In the past, we would meet by chance from time to time, or arrange a barbecue or Malatang near the community, but now it is difficult.

Why is she here?

Li Zhibai's eyes followed Qiu Ling, and then he saw Qiu Ling walking in front of a tall and thin boy.

At first glance, the boy looked like a freshman who had just entered school. His face was green and dark, which must have come from military training.

When the boy saw Qiu Ling, he smiled shyly.

Although Qiuling only reached his chin, she acted like a big sister and patted him on the shoulder.

This action is so intimate!

Li Zhibai felt unhappy immediately.

"Beep--" The car behind honked.

Li Zhibai came to his senses and found that he could go ahead.

He drove forward impatiently until Qiu Ling and the boy were no longer in sight.
-

Ten minutes later, Li Zhibai ran back here wearing sunglasses.

He parked the car in front and ran back.

He didn't know what was going on, but the scene just now hooked his heart like a hook, making him think about coming back for a visit, and then he came back.

However, Qiuling and the boy were no longer where they were.

Li Zhibai turned around and looked around for a long time, but couldn't find it and couldn't help feeling a little discouraged.

Then, he was recognized, and he was surrounded by students. After being recognized, other people gathered around him, asking for autographs and photos. The number of people became more and more, and it almost caused a congestion incident.

Seeing that there were more and more people, Li Zhibai couldn't go on like this anymore, so he could only forcefully say "Sorry" while pushing aside the crowd and trying to find a way to leave.

In the chaos, Qiu Ling suddenly appeared.

She suddenly appeared from the crowd in front and met Li Zhibai's eyes.

Li Zhibai's eyes showed surprise.

Unfortunately, his sunglasses blocked his surprise.

Qiu Ling showed the strength of a bodyguard, "I'm sorry, please give way. Li Zhibai has other work arrangements later, please give way!"

She completely disguised herself as Li Zhibai's bodyguard and took Li Zhibai away from the crowded street and to a restaurant.

Li Zhibai lowered his head and followed Qiu Ling in.

Qiuling communicated with the waiter for a few words, and the waiter immediately nodded and arranged a private room for them.

Qiu Ling asked Li Zhibai to go in first.

"What about you?"

"I have someone sitting outside. I'll call him in." Qiu Ling said.

When Li Zhibai heard this, the boy with the shy smile appeared in his mind.

"Isn't he your boyfriend?" Li Zhibai asked.

Qiuling: "What nonsense are you talking about? A child I sponsored has been admitted to college this year. I'm here to see him."

"Oh." Li Zhibai's tone suddenly became lighter, "So that's it." Qiu Ling gave him a strange look, "What's your reaction?"

Li Zhibai chuckled, shook his head, and said, "There's no reaction. You go and call him. I'll go in and wait for you."

After Li Zhibai finished speaking, the corner of his mouth curled up and he entered the private room first.

Qiu Ling only found it incredible.

But Li Zhibai has always been a bit strange, and Qiu Ling has gotten used to it.

After a while, Qiu Ling came in with the boy.

"Liu Ao." Qiu Ling introduced Li Zhibai.

Li Zhibai looked at the boy named Liu Ao, nodded, smiled, and stretched out his hand, "I am Li Zhibai."

Liu Ao didn't know why, but he was a little nervous. He quickly wiped his hands on himself before reaching over and shaking hands with Li Zhibai.

"Hello, my name is Liu Ao."

Qiu Ling: "Sit down, we meet by chance, let's have lunch together."

Li Zhibai immediately smiled and nodded, "Okay, whatever you want, I'll treat you."

"You dare to pay the bill and give it a try." Qiu Ling immediately glared at Li Zhibai, "I'm here to treat Liu Ao to dinner today. You are just a freeloader. Pay attention to your position today and don't grab the order."

Li Zhibai clicked his tongue and said, "Okay, then I'll still take advantage of Liu Ao."

Liu Ao shook his head in embarrassment.
-

In another private room of this restaurant, four people, Lu Yanhe, Chen Siqi, Xu Xiaoyin and Xin Zixin, were sitting at a table.

Food was also served on the table, and several people were chatting while eating.

"The physical book is indeed selling very well, and it is expected that 30,000 copies will be sold this month." Xu Xiaoyin said, "Jiang Yuqian's article was widely spread online and helped the book to do a lot of publicity. Now Many channels are asking us about when the next issue will be released."

Lu Yanhe still adopted a silent posture and left the entire situation to Chen Siqi.

"We plan to launch it on the 15th of every month." Chen Siqi said, "So the expected release time of the second phase is November 15th."

"Huh? It's a bit tight at that time." Xu Xiaoyin said immediately.

"Well, however, because we are producing the second and third issues at the same time, there are a lot of requests for submissions, and the submission speed will be faster than the first issue." Chen Siqi said, "According to our expectations, we can still catch up with this Published on time.”

Xu Xiaoyin nodded and said: "The first issue of "Jump Out" had an ISBN. Starting from the second issue, a serial number will be given to this series. It is actually a magazine. Otherwise, you will need to apply for an ISBN after publishing an issue. , it’s also very troublesome.”

"I have to leave it to you for publishing matters." Chen Siqi said, "I had a serious communication with Yan He. Regarding what to do with "Jump Out" next, first of all, our cooperation model and sharing model can be based on the previous No changes will be made, but we hope to increase the production cost of each issue to 200,000 yuan."

"Two hundred thousand yuan?" Xin Zixing also showed surprise. Before she came, she had thought that Lu Yanhe and the others would want to increase the production budget, but she did not expect that they would double it in one go.

"This includes the salary of our editorial team. When producing the first issue, almost all of the 100,000 yuan was spent on manuscript fees and design fees." Chen Siqi said, "In the future, our goal is to make "Jump Up" To create a high-quality magazine and theme book, we must invite the best writers and publish the highest-level manuscripts. This also means that we must pay the highest standard of manuscript fees. Only in this way will others be willing to pay us Only if you provide contributions for a long time will you be willing to give us the best manuscripts.”

"One issue of 200,000 yuan will be 2.4 million in one year." Xin Zixing said, "Based on the sales of the first issue, the production cost is not high, but how should we bear the production cost? Xiao Yin, what’s your attitude towards Jiang Yin?”

Xu Xiaoyin said: "How about each of our two families contributes half?"

When the first issue was published, Jiangyin Publishing House was not actually responsible for the bulk of the production funds. The bulk was provided by Yemai.com.

However, the publication of the first physical book made Jiangyin Publishing House a huge profit - far beyond their expectations - in their expectations, a company that was the first to launch physical books for free electronic reading could only rely on The fan effect has sold 30,000 to 50,000 copies. Who would have thought that now they are all aiming for 100,000 copies. Although they don’t know whether this book has a long-tail effect and whether it can continue to sell, but now These sales have already brought considerable profits to the publishing house, not to mention the publicity and promotion it has brought to Liujiazhen and Mingyin.

Xin Zixing was surprised by the attitude of Jiangyin Publishing House. She did not expect that the publishing house that had always been stingy about Sosou would suddenly agree to be responsible for half of it.

But Xin Zixing quickly realized that this only shows that the benefits this book brings to the publishing house are far higher than the production cost.

In fact, as partners, they have nothing against them.

The production of such a book was outsourced to the team of Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi. They didn't worry about anything and just waited for the finished product to be released. The two of them are actually distributors, one is responsible for online channels, and the other is responsible for online channels. If you go through channels, you can make sure profits without losing any money, so why wouldn't you want to?

Lu Yanhe originally thought that Xin Zixing and Xu Xiaoyin would bargain, but unexpectedly, in a few words, a few people settled the matter.

Just as Chen Siqi said, they will definitely agree.

Is the production cost of 200,000 yuan per issue high for a magazine?

In the golden age of print media, it was certainly not high, but in an era like this, it was very high.

In particular, both Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi refused to place any advertisements on this book, rejecting a large portion of their income.
-

Lu Yanhe came out to use the restroom and met Li Zhi who also came out to use the restroom.

"I'll go." The two people walked in and out, almost bumping into each other, and then recognized each other at the same time.

Two people who have to wear masks even when going to the toilet look different.

"Why are you here?"

"Why are you here?"

The two people said in unison.

Lu Yanhe explained: "I will eat here with others at noon."

"Me too," Li Zhibai said, "Just Qiuling, and a student she sponsored."

Lu Yanhe exclaimed, "That's quite a coincidence."

"Do you want to go say hello to Qiu Ling?" Li Zhibai asked, "It's rare to see her now. She asked about you just now."

"Okay." Lu Yanhe nodded, "Then wait for me."

After Lu Yanhe went to the bathroom, he and Li Zhibai went to their place.

Qiu Ling was stunned.

Li Zhibai just went to the bathroom, why did he suddenly bring back Lu Yanhe?

Does he have a random door and can go anywhere he wants?

Lu Yanhe explained briefly.

"It turns out it's such a coincidence." Qiuling said, "Have you finished talking about the matter?"

Lu Yanhe nodded, "Almost."

"But his girlfriend is still over there." Li Zhibai immediately added.

"Girlfriend?!" Qiu Ling immediately widened her eyes and looked at Lu Yanhe in surprise, "You have a girlfriend?"

Lu Yanhe smiled shyly and said, "That's right."

Qiuling: "If you pay, you pay. If you don't, you don't. How can you still say it counts? Don't engage in ambiguous affairs with me. I hate boys hanging on to girls the most."

Li Zhibai helped Lu Yanhe explain, "Their situation is a bit complicated. They are not hanging, and they can't tell who is hanging whom."

Qiu Ling's eyes widened and she looked at Lu Yanhe in disbelief.

"You are not being hung up by others, are you? Lu Yanhe, don't be a licking dog or a backup tire."

Lu Yanhe couldn't laugh or cry. He wanted to explain but didn't know where to start.

Li Zhibai waved his hand and said, "The more you talk, the more outrageous you are. That's not the case."

Qiu Ling: "If it weren't for you and your work partner, I would want to see what kind of girl she is right now."

"Oh, a classmate from high school." When Li Zhibai said this, he suddenly remembered something and looked at Liu Ao, "Remember to keep it a secret."

Liu Ao nodded.

Qiu Ling: "Don't worry, Xiaoao is a kid I watched grow up, and he keeps his mouth shut."

Liu Ao lowered his head and smiled sheepishly.

Li Zhibai felt a little unhappy when he saw Qiu Ling's unconditional trust in Liu Ao.

Even though... he knew intellectually that this unhappiness was not justified at all. In terms of time of acquaintance, they had only known each other longer.

Lu Yanhe said: "Then I'll go back there first, Sister Qiuling."

"Yeah, let's go." Qiu Ling nodded with a smile.

After Lu Yanhe left, Qiu Ling said: "It's really amazing to see Xiao Lu step by step until he is today. It's really amazing. He was only a freshman and he has already started to be the editor-in-chief. Moreover, he has done an impressive job. I bought a book and read it. It’s halfway through, and you can tell it’s a book that was written with great care.”

Li Zhibai: "Then, have you read the article I wrote?"

Qiuling nodded and said, "I read it, but I didn't expect you to be quite talented and be able to write such a story."

"Of course." Li Zhibai said, "I grew up listening to a lot of stories when I was a child. It is extremely easy for me to make up a story."

Li Zhibai looked proud, and even wanted to raise his tail.

Qiu Ling suddenly sighed: "Li Zhibai."

"What?" Li Zhibai looked at her.

"If you can be a little more mature, you might be more popular with girls." Qiu Ling said with a smile, "There should be many girls who are just attracted by your appearance now, but after getting along with you for a while, Then you will find that you are actually a primary school student, right?"

"What?!" Li Zhibai felt as if a lightning struck him.
-

"Why did you go to the bathroom for so long?" Chen Siqi asked in a low voice in Lu Yanhe's ear.

Lu Yanhe explained: "I just met Li Zhibai. He and Officer Qiu were eating next door."

Chen Siqi looked at Lu Yanhe in surprise and asked, "Is it such a coincidence?"

"Ah."

The follow-up production of "Jump Up" has been negotiated. Xin Zixing said: "I finally got a holiday, so I left first. I also made an appointment with someone in the afternoon."

"I'm leaving too." Xu Xiaoyin said, "Bye."

"Bye." Lu Yanhe sent them off.

Xu Xiaoyin said: "Don't send us off. It would be bad if someone recognizes you. See you next time."

"Ah."

As soon as they were sent away, Lu Yanhe sat down again.

Chen Siqi said: "Are you busy this afternoon?"

"No." Lu Yanhe shook his head, "I'm going to start recording "Young Days" for the last time the day after tomorrow. I'll be fine today and tomorrow."

Chen Siqi said: "Then you go to the movies with me. There is a movie I want to watch on National Day."

"what movie?"

"'The Honest Man'." Chen Siqi said, "I am going to write a review of this movie on the media account of "Jump Up"."

Lu Yanhe nodded and said yes.

He took out his mobile phone, searched for the movie, and looked at nearby movie theaters.

"The latest one is just half an hour away. If you walk there, it will take about ten minutes." Lu Yanhe said.

"Well, let's go." Chen Siqi said.

Lu Yanhe put on his mask and hat again, and put his sunglasses in his pocket.

Lu Yanhe was indeed a little nervous when walking with Chen Siqi in public, because he was worried about being photographed again and making hot searches.

If Lu Yanhe kept it secret before because Chen Siqi was unwilling to confirm the relationship, now Lu Yanhe himself is not willing to make it public.

He still doesn't know what will happen to him in the future. The secrets about himself have not been solved yet. He doesn't want to involve Chen Siqi at this time. (End of chapter)
