Chapter 656 655 "The Romantic History of Wang Er"
"Then you are planning to establish a joint venture with the state-owned publishing house?" Fang Minghua asked.
"Yes! Last week, under the recommendation of a friend, I met with President Liang Xiangfeng of the Electronic Industry Publishing House and discussed the establishment of a joint venture company funded by both parties to jointly publish foreign books on advanced computer fields. He was very interested in I am also very interested and willing to continue negotiating on this issue."
At this point, Sun Lizhe paused: "Minghua, you are also a shareholder of the company. Naturally, we need to ask for your opinion on such a large project. So I called you and came to Yanjing to discuss it together."
"I have no objection." Fang Minghua said with a smile: "I said, I'm just investing, not about the actual operation. Not bad.”
"Then it's settled! I'll go to President Liang to discuss it in detail in two days and finalize this project as soon as possible," Sun Lizhe said.
Private publishing companies and state-owned publishing companies jointly fund the establishment of new publishing companies. Sun Lizhe is not the first person to do this.
Both parties jointly contributed funds and it was listed under the name of the state-owned publishing house. This way, the book number of the state-owned publishing house was used in an upright manner and certain policy risks were avoided.
But in order not to violate relevant national regulations, the state-owned publishing house must hold at least 51% of the shares in the new joint venture! In other words, it must be controlled by a state-owned publishing house.
This model of holding state-owned publishing houses and specific operations of private enterprises will also face some problems, such as serious restrictions on the state-owned management system, the financial accounting of both parties cannot be connected, asset evaluation is difficult, and it is easy to communicate between management and shareholders. Conflicts arise, etc.
There are pros and cons, it depends on how you look at it.
However, Fang Minghua still likes the current model of Shengshi Books. Although buying a book number is a bit troublesome and has certain policy risks, it is free and there is no "mother-in-law" on it.
Of course, Sun Lizhe must have his reasons for being willing to do this.
After staying at Sun Lizhe's house for a while, the two went out together to meet Shi Tiiesheng.
Shi Tiesheng still lives on Yonghegong Street. The two rushed to see that there were almost no changes in the courtyard, and there was still a low kitchen built in the courtyard.
Shi Tiiesheng was the only one at home. When he saw the two coming, he smiled on his face and was busy pouring tea for them in his wheelchair. Fang Minghua and the others did not stop him.
Although Shi Tiesheng still lives in an old house of 70 square meters, the furnishings inside have changed a lot compared to the previous two years. The furniture is all new. There is a brand-new color TV on the high and low cabinets, and there is a TV next to it. refrigerator.
Just the year before last, Shi Tiesheng's essay "Me and the Temple of Earth" won the first World Chinese Literature Award, with a bonus of 100,000 yuan.
With these 100,000 yuan, my life suddenly became much richer, so I successively purchased some household appliances to make my life richer.
Seven years ago, with the support of Fang Minghua, Shi Tiesheng went to the hospital for medical treatment in time and curbed the malignant development of nephritis. Although he still needs to take medicine every day and go to the hospital for check-ups every once in a while, his condition is finally improving. It was under control and did not develop to the point of uremia.
However, friends who had a close relationship with Shi Tiiesheng never talked about his illness in front of him and treated him as a normal person, just like the two of them just watched him pushing a wheelchair and making tea without taking the initiative to help.
In Shi Tiesheng's words: "I can do things that I can do myself, so that I feel that I am not a useless person."
The three of them chatted about literature, and Shi Tiesheng was very happy. Because a collection of his essays "Me and the Temple of Earth" was published by Shengshi Books.
This collection of essays is an excellent collection of essays he has published, including "My Distant Qingping Bay", "Grandma's Star", "Me and the Temple of Earth" and "When I Was Twenty-one" "Remembering in Autumn" and so on were published as specially selected essays in "Buhuhu Series".
This is the third collection of essays after Shengshi Books launched the "Buhu Series - Special Selection of Prose", after Fang Minghua's "Fragments of Civilization" and Yu Qiuyu's "Cultural Journey". With the help of "Me and Me" "Temple of Earth" won the World Literature Award, and Shengshi Books launched this collection of essays. It sold well in the market, which of course also brought Shi Tiesheng a lot of income.
A few people were chatting when footsteps came from outside the door again. It turned out to be Shi Tiiesheng's wife Chen Ximi coming back from get off work.
Now that Chen Ximi is no longer a teacher, she has been transferred to Huaxia Publishing House as an editor. The job is relatively easy. She doesn’t have to correct homework when she comes back, and has more time to take care of her husband.
Seeing Fang Minghua and Sun Lijian arriving, Chen Ximi greeted them warmly: "Minghua, Lijian, don't leave for a while, just stay here for dinner."
" Let me tell you, the noodles made with sago are absolutely amazing, and they are even more delicious than those made by the old Yanjing people!" Shi Tiesheng immediately praised his wife.
Chen Ximi looked at her husband tenderly and said, "I won't be making noodles with soybean paste today. Minghua is here. Let's make the fried noodles that we old Qin people love the most! I don't know if you are used to it, Li Jian." Are you used to it?"
Chen Ximi said and looked at Sun Lijian.
"You forgot, I went to Qinbei with Tie Sheng to join the queue. I'm used to eating mutton dip, potato rub, and fried noodles!" Sun Lijian replied with a smile: "This I haven’t eaten in years, but what you said aroused my greed.”
“Then you should eat more today.”
Chen Ximi changed her coat and went. Busy in the kitchen, mixing, kneading, and rolling dough, this is not difficult at all for her, a daughter-in-law from Qin Province.
Three men were chatting in the small living room, and she was busy in the kitchen alone. An hour later, the fragrant noodles were brought out.
Everyone was not polite, each picked up a bowl and started eating.
"Minghua, how does it taste?" Chen Ximi asked.
"Well, not bad, not bad sago. In the past few years since you married in Yanjing, you have not lost your craftsmanship. The oily noodles you make are amazing! They are better than those made by my wife." Fang Minghua said.
Several people laughed after hearing this.
Chen Ximi also served herself a bowl. After taking a few bites, something suddenly occurred to her: "Minghua, someone recommended a book to our publishing house. We all thought it was well written, but the content was a bit sensitive. The leaders dare not publish it.”
“I heard from Tie Sheng that you have a good relationship with the boss of Shengshi Book Company. Do you think they dare to publish this book?”
“Oh, What book?" Fang Minghua suddenly became interested.
"Wait a minute, I'll get it for you." Chen Ximi put down the bowls and chopsticks and turned around and entered the bedroom. Within two minutes, he came out and took a book and handed it to Fang Minghua, and explained:
“This is written by a writer from Yanjing. It was published in Xiangjiang and I want to publish it in the mainland.”
Fang Minghua said oh, took the book and looked at it, his eyes widened immediately.
On the cover of the book are written a few traditional Chinese characters: "The Romantic History of Wang Er"!
There is a line of small words next to it: The Fourth of the Fengyue Series!
