Chapter 344 The spring breeze in February is like scissors
“Really?!” Lu Yao and his wife were surprised and happy after hearing this.
Fang Minghua took out two more contracts from his briefcase and handed them to Lu Yao: "This is the contract. After you sign it, I will send it back for you."
Lu Yao looked at it carefully. Linda also chipped in, 380 yuan of income from purchasing the adaptation rights?
Not much.
But at this price now, there is nothing we can do.
It can solve an urgent need. The treatment of Lu Yao's disease costs a lot of money. What's more important is to have a good diet, including lean meat, eggs, and milk.
These things are not cheap. .
Besides, if Lu Yao eats it, why not give it to his daughter?
How can the father eat alone when his daughter is also growing?
Alas.
Of course, it is not easy for Linda to tell Fang Minghua these private matters, as her husband is very concerned about face.
Of course Fang Minghua didn't know what Linda was thinking. He said to Lu Yao and his wife: "This is an opportunity, Brother Lu, your book "The Ordinary World" is going to be popular soon! Look, Come on, you are more popular than that "Life" book!"
Of course the couple is very happy.
Fang Minghua chatted for a while and then left, smiling and saying that he would still write when he went back.
After seeing Fang Minghua off, Lu Yao sighed deeply.
It is better than a wife to know her husband. Linda knew what her husband was thinking.
"Why, are you still thinking about your own novel?"
"Yeah. Hey."
Although he believed in Fang Minghua and had the ability to help him write this novel Three parts, but who wouldn’t want to complete this masterpiece by themselves?
"Lu Yao, the most important thing for you now is to recover from your illness." Linda said softly: "When you recover from your illness, can you write something else? Do you only want to write this one?"
"What should you write about? ?" Lu Yao's eyes showed confusion.
This book "The Ordinary World" seems to have exhausted all his energy and energy, and he feels that he will never be able to write anything in the future!
"Don't be impatient. If you can't think of it now, you will definitely think of it in the future! And it will be better than "The Ordinary World"!" Linda encouraged her husband.
“I hope so”
"Okay, stop thinking about it, it's time to take medicine." Linda took out a few bottles of medicine from the cabinet.
Fang Minghua returned home and called Zhao Hongjun again, telling him that CCTV was going to record and broadcast "The Ordinary World".
Zhao Hongjun is naturally very happy.
"Minghua, we can prepare to print more of these two books. How many are we going to print this time?"
Fang Minghua pondered for a while after listening: "I guess the radio station is the fastest. It will take three or four months to broadcast this book. You can decide on your own time. As for the printing quantity, it will be 1 million copies each! ”
"Oh my god, you are preparing to play big. Okay! Just do as you say. I will start preparing for this when I go to work tomorrow. Minghua, hurry up and write the third part. Wait for the first and second parts to become a big hit. At that time, the third part will continue!”
Oh, now you are urging me to write this book again?
The spring breeze in February is like scissors.
The two babies are already one month old. Before the Chinese New Year, Minghua held a full moon banquet at the May Day Restaurant, and the babies also had their own official names.
This name came from the fact that my mother went to the famous Wanshou Eight Immortals Palace in Dongguan, Shidu, Xijing, and found an old man to calculate the child's birth date.
The boy's name is Fang Le, the girl's name is Fang Rui, their nickname is Lele Ruirui, and the boy is the eldest.
Today is the weekend, and Fang Minghua and his wife returned to their father-in-law’s house with their two children in their arms.
The weather is nice today, the sun is warm, especially sitting in the yard and basking in the sun is a very comfortable thing. Mother-in-law Zhou Yunjuan officially retired last winter. She had nothing to do all day and was very happy to hold her grandchildren.
Today, the mother-in-law hugged one and Song Tangtang’s sister-in-law hugged the other. They were sitting in the yard playing with the children.
Song Tangtang sat on the edge and read quietly, while Fang Minghua and his uncle Song Yuemin sat on a bamboo chair and chatted.
The evaluation of new military ranks in the army is now in full swing. Although the ranks have not yet been publicly awarded, many people know the level they will be awarded.
Song Yuemin will be awarded the rank of colonel as he wished, which makes him very happy.
According to the relevant regulations of the army, if I am awarded the rank of senior colonel in the future, I will not have to go back to my hometown!
He couldn't bear to take off this new military uniform.
Song Yuemin is a political cadre, and his army is in Lishan, not far from the city, so he usually comes on weekends.
The two of them chatted without a word.
"Minghua, I heard from Tangtang that you are helping Lu Yao write the third part of "The Ordinary World"?" Song Yuemin asked casually.
"Yes, Lu Yao is seriously ill and will probably not be able to create for a long time, so he asked me to help him finish it and fulfill his wish." Fang Minghua told the truth.
“Tangtang said sales were not good.”
"That was before. This book was going to be recorded and broadcast into a radio drama by CCTV, and it would become very popular soon." Fang Minghua was quite confident.
"So what if it becomes popular? This book is very poorly written, not as good as the "Life" he wrote!"
The person who answered the conversation was mother-in-law Zhou Yunjuan, who hugged her granddaughter and said to her Fang Minghua said: "Minghua, you should have refused in the first place!"
The implication is: you will be scolded and your reputation will be ruined!
Before Fang Minghua answered, Song Tangtang, who was reading a book, raised his head and retorted: "Mom, you are wrong! This book may not be comparable to "Life" in terms of literature, but it does not mean that His social influence is more important. I dare say that this book will definitely become a phenomenal work and inspire a generation of people!”
"Tangtang, as you said, one or two books have been published, why don't readers admit it?" Zhou Yunjuan's tone was slightly sarcastic.
“That’s because the literary world is now full of self-righteous people like you, Mom, who control the right to speak!”
“Tangtang, you said that about Mom?!” Zhou Yunjuan Somewhat angry.
"Mom, I don't mean anything else, but your attitude towards literature! Too theoretical, too Westernized!"
Seeing the two women quarreling, Fang Minghua and Song Yuemin looked at each other. After a glance, they all shut up knowingly.
Fang Minghua was helpless.
Other mothers and daughters quarrel mostly over trivial matters at home, but for them, it’s actually about literature!
Is it worth it?
Life is not all about literature, right?
Fortunately, the quarrel between the two woke up the sleeping baby, who opened his mouth and started crying. The two women quickly shut up and coaxed the baby.
Regardless of other people's opinions on his help in writing the third part of "The Ordinary World", Fang Minghua still wrote it very seriously. He was faithful to the original work and also made some changes. For example, although He Xiulian suffered from lung disease, she was eventually cured. .
Throughout February and March, Fang Minghua spent his spare time coding. He completed the first draft of the nearly 300,000-word third part in two months. The next step was to revise it word by word. After completing it, hand it to Lu Yao and listen to his opinion.
But what Fang Minghua didn't expect was that before he had finished revising the third part of "The Ordinary World", he received an invitation from the Luyuan Academy, asking him to go to Yanjing to teach the Luyuan Academy's workshop.
