Rebirth 2003

Chapter 36



We can finally sign the contract!

Seeing the news sent by his editor, Lu Yang was stunned quietly for a few seconds, and then suddenly smiled silently.

That\'s right! I wrote a novel for ten years. Back in 2003, I wrote a new book. If I can\'t even sign the contract, it\'s bullshit! You might as well buy a piece of tofu and kill yourself!

Lu Yang said with a smile in his heart.

Then Lu Yang added his own contract editing pill according to the contract editing QQ number sent by Tiange.

There\'s nothing to talk about with the signing editor. She\'s just responsible for signing. Lu Yang knows the starting point contract. For a new author, there\'s basically no room for bargaining. Therefore, after adding the QQ number of meatball, there\'s not much nonsense. She directly asks for the electronic version of the contract and simply says a few words to meatball, even if it\'s finished.

The rest is to go to the printing room outside, print out two electronic copies of the contract, sign your name and pen name, and send it to the starting point headquarters in Shanghai.

When we finish the procedure at the starting point, we will send back a signed contract.

Lu Yang has been writing for ten years in his previous life. He has experienced this procedure many times and has long been familiar with it.

Lu Yang doesn\'t want to delay signing the contract. Every day he delays, he loses.

If the signed contract is sent to the starting point headquarters one day earlier, editors can arrange recommendation positions for their works one day earlier. If they can\'t send the starting point one day, there will be no recommendation from the website one day. For a new book, there is a great difference in the growth rate of popularity between a new book and a recommendation from the website.

Although "doomsday wasteland" temporarily ranks first in the new book list, which has a strong effect on attracting popularity, as mentioned above, the new book list at the starting point has time and word limit.

If you have been on the list for more than a month, or if the number of words exceeds 200000, you will be forcibly kicked out of the list of new books.

At that time, if there are website recommendations to keep up, the growth rate of popularity will not drop too much. Otherwise, doomsday wasteland will disappear in the vision of new readers. The effect will be much worse only by word-of-mouth from the previously attracted readers.

At that moment, Lu Yang saved the electronic contract just sent by the pill in his e-mail, then changed his shoes and went out to find the printing room to print the contract.

First go to the printing room to print, then sign, and then go to the post to send the contract.

In 2003, not a few years later, those everywhere express companies basically sent letters to the post office.

By the time he finished all this, Lu Yang had spent almost more than an hour.

Lu Yang remembers that Cao Xue didn\'t have classes this afternoon. Although he had his own classes, he encountered such a happy event today. It was a waste not to take the opportunity to push forward the relationship between himself and Cao Xue again.

At that moment, Lu Yang stood at the door of the post office, took out his mobile phone and dialed Cao Xue.

In other words, Lu Yang hasn\'t called Cao Xue since he communicated with her. He has always used his mobile phone to send text messages with her, but today is different, so Lu Yang dialed Cao Xue for the first time.

"Hello? Why do you call me at this time? Do you have no classes in the afternoon?"

After the phone was connected, Cao Xue\'s confused voice sounded.

Lu Yang smiled, opened his eyes and said in vernacular, "well, you don\'t have classes either? Come to my place later and celebrate with me!"

"Celebrate? No class to celebrate?"

On the phone, Cao Xue was more confused.

Lu Yang\'s smile became more obvious. He glanced at the passers-by in the street and said easily: "of course not! There is a happy event to celebrate, but I have no atmosphere alone, so you come with me! Don\'t refuse! I must come!"

These days, Lu Yang insisted on sending Cao Xue back to the dormitory after she went to the evening self-study every night, regardless of whether Cao Xue agreed or not. However, Cao Xue\'s vigilance has greatly increased after the last kiss stealing. These days, Lu Yang has never got the chance to kiss her again. Nevertheless, they went to the evening self-study together every night. After the evening self-study, they sent her back to the dormitory, The relationship between Lu Yang and her has made some progress.

At this time, Cao Xue heard that Lu Yang must ask her to go to his place, and said that there was a happy event and wanted her to celebrate with him. She couldn\'t help but hesitate.

Lu Yang is not a rookie in love. In this case, he won\'t give Cao Xue the chance to refuse. Seeing her hesitation, he smiled and said, "that\'s it! I\'ll buy vegetables now and show you my hand later. In half an hour, you go to the school gate and I\'ll show you where I live! That\'s it!"

With that, Lu Yang Hung up first.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Yang smiled and went to the nearby vegetable market to buy vegetables.

It\'s not a boast to give Cao Xuelu a hand. Lu Yang is still confident in making a few hard dishes.

Who can\'t cook a few dishes for a child born in the countryside?

……

Cao Xue\'s dormitory.

Cao Xue was stunned when she listened to the blind beep in her mobile phone.

She didn\'t expect Lu Yang to hang up her phone first. Originally, out of a girl\'s reserve, Lu Yang Hung up the phone before she wanted to refuse.

"What shall we do? Shall we go or not?"

Cao Xue frowned and talked to herself with some annoyance.

At this time, except Cao Xue, there was only one girl in the dormitory, the girl who created opportunities for Lu Yang and Cao Xue in the canteen last time.

This girl, named Zhou Jing, is Cao Xue\'s roommate.

In this dormitory, Zhou Jing and Cao Xue have the best relationship.

At this time, she was hanging clothes on the balcony. After hearing Cao Xue answer the phone, she said to herself in annoyance, so she smiled and said, "Cao Xue! What should I do? Did Lu Yang ask you where to go?"

Zhou Jing, Cao Xue\'s good friend, has long known about Lu Yang\'s pursuit of Cao Xue.

He often teases Cao Xue with Lu Yang.

At this time, Zhou Jing smiles and wants to tease Cao Xue. Friends always like to tease each other.

Cao Xue still frowned and said: "Yes! That guy just called me and asked me to wait for him at the school gate half an hour later. He said he would pick me up to his place to celebrate. What\'s the matter, Zhou Jing? Do I go or not? I wanted to refuse just now, but he was too overbearing! He hung up without waiting for me to answer. I was wondering whether to call him and tell him I wouldn\'t go Where is it? "

"Ha ha!"

When Zhou Jing heard that it was such a thing, she jokingly stopped her clothes, looked back at Cao Xue with a smile and said, "do you want to refuse? Cao Xue! It seems that this is his first appointment with you? Do you really want to refuse?"

With that, he smiled and looked at Cao Xue\'s expression with great interest. He felt that Cao Xue\'s worried expression was very interesting.

She hasn\'t been in love yet. In her heart, she envies Cao Xue. A boy chased her in the first semester of freshman year. Moreover, she also heard Cao Xue say that Lu Yang seems very talented. Just as a freshman, she wrote a novel and published it in Taiwan.

This story sounds like a legend to Zhou Jing. Among the people she knows, she has never heard of anyone who has written a novel, let alone published it in Taiwan.

Therefore, in her heart, Zhou Jing is very fond of Lu Yang.

Most girls at this age admire not money, fame or status, but the talent and appearance of boys.

In her heart, Zhou Jing hopes to see Cao Xue and Lu Yang come together.

Talent with beauty is always the most perfect love in the eyes of girls.

Although Zhou Jing\'s appearance is not as good as Cao Xue\'s, she is also quite beautiful. She naturally yearns for love in her heart.

Zhou Jing\'s words made Cao Xue frown tighter and more hesitant and worried.

Hesitated: "but... It\'s not good for me to go to his place alone? He\'s unruly. He kissed me secretly last time..."

Zhou Jing also knew this, so Cao Xue mentioned it without scruples at this time.

"Why don\'t... I\'ll go with you? Don\'t you wonder what Lu Yang\'s place is like?" Zhou Jing suddenly put forward a suggestion that brightened Cao Xue\'s eyes.
