Her expression was originally not very serious, but it quickly became interested. Then, she quickly put away her contempt and became serious. In the end, her face was filled with excitement.
Sun Wukong, the Seventy-Two Transformations, the Somersault Cloud, Patriarch Bodhi, and other books were still lingering in her mind. It was obviously about the pirates and the navy, but why did she find it so novel?
"Does the East China Sea here really refer to our East China Sea? I've never heard of a country in the East Sea called the Aolai Kingdom, and a navy rear admiral called the Dragon King of the East Sea, Ao Guang.”Sona slowly came back to her senses and pointed at the manuscript.
"Of course not. Strictly speaking, this is a world similar to ours.”Qi Zhen shook his head.
"Fabricate?" Sona was taken aback." You mean the story inside was made up?”
"Yes."
Qi Zhen had actually discovered that in One Piece's world, the novels that were currently being published in newspapers were all adapted from stories that had happened in the past. There was almost no original work. For example, the popular One Piece Legend written by Master Rambo was based on One Piece Roger with some false adaptation. There were almost no stories like The Great Pirate's Treasure Hunt that had almost all the plot and characters.
Therefore, Qi Zhen was confident that this novel theme would definitely attract people, not to mention that it was modified from Journey to the West.
As expected, Sona's eyes lit up."I didn't expect that a novel that wasn't adapted from what happened and was completely original could be written so brilliantly. The system and weapons in it are also so interesting!”
"There are about 50,000 to 60,000 words here, right? The story seemed to have just begun. He was really curious about what happened after Sun Wukong got the Godly Sea Steadying Needle.”Sona flipped through the manuscript and clicked her tongue in admiration." Oh right. Who wrote this novel? Is it your master, the Mister Koshiro?”
"No, no, no." Guina shook her head." My father was a pure swordsman. He didn't write this novel. It's my junior brother, Qi Zhen." Guina looked at Qi Zhen.
"Your junior brother?" Sona looked at the boy in shock. Before she read the manuscript, she did not think that this manuscript was written by the two children. It was very likely that their family had something to do and had to ask them to help with the manuscript. After reading the manuscript, she felt that only a middle-aged master could write this novel with such wonderful ideas and rigorous system.
However, this girl named Guina, who had a serious expression on her face, told her that the author was actually a ten-year-old boy?
" This..." Sona looked at Qi Zhen in disbelief, and Qi Zhen smiled back at her.
"There's nothing to be doubtful about.”Qi Zhen smiled and said," To be honest, I don't have any intention of submitting it to you at the moment.”
"Why?" Hearing this, Sona immediately frowned and said nervously.
"It's very simple, because the current circulation of the Tulip News Agency is too low.”
Hearing this, Sona frowned slightly and said,""I admit that the circulation is low. But this doesn't seem to affect your collection of royalties?”
"Let more people see it to guarantee my contract price!" Qi Zhen waved his hand. Isn't it easier to improve?"
"So, the current Tulip News Agency is not suitable for me. I'm sorry." Qi Zhen put away the manuscript and patted Guina's shoulder, signaling them to leave.
Sona pursed her lips and thought of her newspaper company, which had not had a good article for a long time and its circulation was decreasing day by day. She made a decision in her heart.
"1000 Bailey for 1000 words."
However, just as Qi Zhen stood up, Sona's calm voice sounded.
"Hmm? What?" Qi Zhen's body stiffened.
Before he submitted the manuscript, he had already understood the rules of this industry. Newcomers usually only had a price of 500 to 1000 per thousand words. Very few of them had a price of more than 1000 Bailey per thousand words.
Before he submitted the manuscript, he had thought that 1000 words would be worth about 1000 Bailey.
1000 words for 1000 Bailey. Just this 50,000-word draft alone would earn him 50,000 Bailey.
However, Qi Zhen thought for a moment and shook his head. He said righteously," Thank you for your kindness, but money is just a material object. Guina, let's go…"
"2000 Bailey for a thousand words. And immediately pay the 50,000-word manuscript fee.”
Qi Zhen's movements were obviously slower.
He knew that as long as he nodded his head, he could earn 100,000 Bailey. 100,000 Bailey was equivalent to 1,000 points. It was enough for Qi Zhen to enter the lottery once or even activate the " Super Member " for a month.
However, Qi Zhen gritted his teeth and still did not agree. He said,"Thank you very much for your kindness. However, the circulation of your newspaper is really unsatisfactory. I'd better come back for tea another day. Also, I really don't value money!”
En, I really don't value money! Qi Zhen shouted in his heart again,
"Isn't that enough?" Sona took a deep look at Qi Zhen and said resolutely,"5000 Bailey for a thousand words!”
"Swoosh!"
Without hesitation, Qi Zhen returned to his seat and said with a smile,"I think the tea here is quite good, so I won't make it another day. Come, pour me another cup!”
5000 Bailey for a thousand words, let those circulation numbers go to hell!
Guina was stunned by Qi Zhen's actions, while Sona breathed a sigh of relief and smiled again.
"Then let's talk again!”
