Lisko's American life
Chapter 71 New Book "The Little Prince"
With the surprise of being recognized by his instructor, Liske lay on the bed after a long absence, and fell asleep with the familiar fragrance on the bedding.
Lisko brought his laptop when he came out. During the few days at the tutor’s house, he calmly and slowly completed the rest of the book "The Little Prince". Of course, he showed it to the tutor as soon as possible. .
Berman is accustomed to printing out manuscripts on manuscript paper, but he doesn't find it texture on electronic equipment.Li Sike has been studying with him for so long, and he must have known this quirk. He also printed it with a printer and gave it to him.
The full text of "The Little Prince" is 295,000 words, and it is a thick stack when printed. Berman is quietly savoring in the study with gold eyes, while Lisko sits aside and waits for his evaluation.
"I always thought I was rich and had a flower that was unique in the world; in fact, all I had was an ordinary rose. An ordinary rose..."
"If it were me, if I had fifty-three minutes to use freely, then I would walk leisurely towards a clear spring."
"Ancient houses, stars, and deserts-what gives them beauty is something invisible..."
As Berman read it, from time to time he saw some sentences that made him very surprised.
Lisko’s book, Berman, also feels very good. He likes Lisko’s ideas very much. The book "Ryefield" has made him famous among students. This book aims at the category of children. No parent would refuse it. A book that teaches children to yearn for truth, goodness and beauty.
He put down the manuscript in his hand and looked at some young and overly disciples in front of him. There would really be jealousy in his heart, and it felt as if all the culture of the world was possessed by him.
"Okay, very good." Berman calmed his mood and spoke out his amazement unabashedly.
Liske’s book reveals a sharp satire and criticism of some ugly phenomena in society. Berman also has some concerns about whether it will be mapped to politicians, but he quickly relieved that there is something wrong with literati writing, he can still block it.
Childhood is a time of looking forward to miracles, pursuing warmth, and full of dreams. In contrast, adults are lifeless, powerful, and superficial."Adults should follow the example of children."Li Ske chose a child’s perspective to see the world, using the child’s innocence, curiosity, and desire to learn more about the world to tell the adult stories, especially to those "childlike" adults, let them borrow The little prince’s imagination temporarily forgets the desires that belong to the adult world, flies back to his childhood, reflects on real life, and discovers the true meaning of life.
Berman is really full of praise after reading it. This book may not get an award, but it is definitely one of the top five best-selling works instinctively.
Patted Lisko on the shoulder,
"You are beyond my expectation."
After the warmth moment passed, Li Scotia bid farewell to the reluctant Mary and everyone, and made the promise of "I will definitely come back frequently in the future." Li Scot left the castle under everyone's attention.
After returning to the hotel, Lisko quickly contacted his agent. Lubo kept calling him these days. Lisko knew that his mentor was not waiting to see these literary agents. He felt that they were all vampires lying on writers. Knowing that it is inevitable to have an agent taking care of chores in society nowadays, I still don't like seeing these people, so I had to arrange for Lubo to wait for him to return to the hotel to discuss.
"Hey, Rubo."
"Li, I've been waiting for you for several days, are you in the hotel now?" Lubo's tone was eager.
"Yes, I just came back," Lisko shrugged embarrassedly. The original plan was to come back in two days, but she couldn't stand Mary's strong retention, so she had to stay a few more days, and Lubo waited a long time.
I told him the room number and soon heard a knock on the door.
Lisko got up and opened the door. "Rubo."
He reached out and patted Lubo's belly.
"I finally saw you," Rubo's tone was full of resentment. He was originally negotiating a copyright contract in the UK. He heard that Lisko finally came out of the ranch and hurried back. He didn't expect to wait here for several days. .
As for rushing into the manor to meet, Lubo thought about Berman's unkind look, and he was frustrated.
"How about copyright transactions recently?" Lisko watched him sitting on the sofa with difficulty. Lu Bo was getting fatter and fatter in recent years, and the hardcover custom shirts were a bit too restrictive to his growing belly.
"Very well, Li, your work is still very popular in the copyright market. The main reason is that it is outstanding. I never go to customers. Many customers come to find us."
Rubo drank a sip of water, with some pride in his tone.
Then I told Li Sike about the recent company developments.
"We have received news that many organizations have already submitted the book "Rye Field" to Sweden. The specific results can only be waited for. After all, we cannot enter this award. At present, the literary awards in Britain, America and Europe have been swept away by us. The company has specially ordered several trophy racks urgently."
Li Ske usually doesn't like to collect these trophies, so they are all taken by Lubo to put them at the entrance of the company. Everyone who enters the company will be attracted by the rows of trophies.
Lubo often brings newbie writers who have just signed to pay respects here.
"Here is the honor of our company's shareholder Lisko, the author of three books, and you will succeed in the future."
Live like a master of success.
Lisko flipped through the report and found that after the book "Rye Field" was listed as a recommended reading book for middle school students in the United States, some of the stagnant sales began to soar again. Other English-speaking publishing houses have been sending good news. The current book is also listed under the file. All gains.
"The total sales share is 170 million, and the copyright income is 90 million."
Li Sike is still very satisfied with this result. This time his income has increased a lot over the previous two books. After all, Li Sike’s popularity has been rising.
After returning the document, Lisko recognized Lubo's work.
"This is a new book I wrote recently. It looks at the world from a children's point of view. You can take it to Langdon and talk about it again."
When Lu Bo listened to the new book, he immediately showed a speed that was incompatible with his body, bounced from the sofa, and flipped through the printed manuscript a few times.
Lu Bo looked carefully for a while. Although he is not a literary connoisseur, he has been an agent for many years and has his own taste level. Lu Bo looked at it and knew that this book would definitely be better than all Lisko's books. It's a big hit, because the goal this time is children.
