"The weather in the south is really too cold, even colder than in the north."

"Aren't you also from the south? You can't adapt to the weather in the south?" Chen Yao closed the door, turned around and returned to the sofa to sit down.

Luo Kun smiled and said, "I was transferred by the company to Beijing as editor-in-chief."

"Congratulations to Lao Luo, you've been promoted." Chen Yao opened the packaging box and took out a pineapple bread.

Luo Kun said sincerely with his eyes: "It's all your benefit from your boss."

Chen Yao published five science fiction novels at Jinchao Publishing House. The book became popular and won the Hugo Award. Jinchao Publishing House became famous because of this.

In the past, Luo Kun was just an ordinary editor in charge of the publishing house, and then he was promoted to the editor-in-chief, and now he has become the editor-in-chief.

I have lived in the capital for a long time and have adapted to the climate in the north. Now I am a little unaccustomed to the weather in the south.

He kept wiping his palms, as if it was very cold, Chen Yao picked up the remote control and turned on the air conditioner.

Luo Kun took a sip of milk tea and said, "There is heating in the north, but not in the south. It is really comfortable for me to stay indoors in the capital, but it is not possible in the south.

With the same temperature, the weather in the south is much colder than in the north."

The south is wet and cold weather, and the north is dry and cold. The same temperature is 5 degrees Celsius. The south is really colder than the north.

There is more moisture in the air, which makes it easier to take away the heat from the human body. Today, the cooling down in Shenzhen and the summer rains can freeze people to numb their fingers.

When the air conditioner is turned on, it feels a little more comfortable.

Luo Kun couldn't wait to ask, "Have you written it? Show me."

Chen Yao put the printed manuscript in front of him, titled "The Empire of the Yuan Universe".

The master must be a masterpiece. Luo Kun opened the book and read the introduction, and probably knew what he wrote.

Chen Yao asked him: "Has anyone ever written this kind of subject?"

"Yes." Luo Kun said: "But there has not been a genre. Perhaps, you can bring a trend."

The themes of real and virtual worlds have appeared abroad for a long time, but they have never been very popular. However, with Chen Yao's current fame and superb constitutive power, he can really establish a sect.

“Is it right to publish at your own expense?”

"right."

I have published five physical books, and they all have their own expenses. The disadvantage is that they have to pay for the cost of counting, printing, etc.

The advantage is that 100% of the copyright belongs to you, and the income generated by book sales, film and television, and comic adaptations are all your own.

Luo Kun asked about the number of words and published books of his book, and then calculated various fees on the computer, which cost about 3.5 million.

"3.5 million?" Chen Yao said in surprise: "Has the price increased?"

"Hehe." Luo Kun smiled: "The publishing house's physical books business is not easy to do. Understand it. 3.5 million is nothing to you, right?"

Chen Yao shrugged and expressed his no objection. Luo Kun printed out an agreement and handed it in front of him. He signed an agreement first and signed the formal contract another day.

Chen Yao carefully read each clause, and then signed his name on it.

The book release this time will be very different from the past.

In the past, it was first released in the country, and after it became popular, it was then released overseas versions.

Nowadays, Chen Yao is quite famous overseas, and the domestic and overseas versions will be released at the same time.

Jinchao Publishing House has been working with overseas publishers, such as Amazon, so global synchronization is fine.

Chen Yao put down his signature pen: "When is expected to be available for sale?"

Luo Kun responded: "It's okay about December 11th."

This time, it was carefully considered. December 10th is the day when Chen Yao received the award. Taking advantage of the popularity of Nobel, he promoted a wave of book sales climax.

Without further ado, Luo Kun stood up and said goodbye and went back to the company to be busy.

"Brother, are you ready to set off, right?" Lin Yuhan walked out of the bedroom.

Chen Yao said: "Depart tomorrow and take a plane to Stockholm."

"Bring me with me!" Lin Yuhan was full of expectations. Every time Chen Yao went abroad, she would go with her.

"are you free?"

"I am an online novel writer and can work anywhere."

"But you have to take care of Li Mengmeng."

Lin Yuhan: “…”

I almost forgot that Li Mengmeng was studying in China. If both of them went abroad, who would take care of her?

In the afternoon, Chen Yao drove to Phoenix Primary School. The little girl came over to pick her up after school.

The security guard at the door recognized him and did not intercept him. Chen Yao walked into the campus and found the little girl's class.

The bell rang just now, and the elementary school students carrying their schoolbags rushed out of the classroom like a rush.

The little girl sitting in the front row was packing her books and putting it in her schoolbag. When she saw Chen Yao coming, she was very happy and immediately got up and ran over.

"Mr. Chen, are we meeting again?" Teacher Wu walked towards him with a smile.

I met last time, but Teacher Wu did not recognize him at that time.

Chen Yao smiled and said, "Do you know who I am?"

"It may be that I had a bad sleep that day." Teacher Wu pushed his black-framed glasses: "You are the Nobel Prize-scientist Mr. Chen Yao."

Chen Yao smiled and touched the little girl's head: "Is she good at studying in school?"

"It's great." Teacher Wu said: "I have always been a top student, and I've remained the first in the whole grade. I'm still an excellent sports student."

"Yeah?"

"Yes, Li Mengmeng is tall, and she is very strong in running and swimming, and even boys can't catch up with her."

After saying the last sentence, Teacher Wu laughed.

"By the way." She suddenly remembered something: "The school is going to organize a winter camp. Is Li Mengmeng going to participate?"

Chen Yao asked Li Mengmeng: "Do you want to go?"

"think."

"How many days?"

"Seven days."

It just so happened that I was going abroad and I didn’t have time to take care of her. It was also nice to let her attend a winter camp.

Chen Yao nodded: "Join."

Teacher Wu handed over a form, Chen Yao took a look on it, and then signed his name.

After signing, Chen Yao was about to put down the signing pen, suddenly, Teacher Wu handed over another small notebook with a blank one.

"What?" Chen Yao looked puzzled.

Teacher Wu whispered: "Great scientist, give me a signature."

This Chinese teacher is not very old, only about 25 years old, and she also has her own idol.

"Are you my fan?"

"No, I never admire anyone."

"Oh, then I won't sign it."

“…”

Seeing that he was leaving, Teacher Wu said, "Yes, I am your fan, haha!"

"That's right. If you like it, say it boldly." Chen Yao signed his name on it.

“…”

Teacher Wu discovered that this great scientist was not as arrogant as he imagined, but was a bit superb.

Chen Yao put down his signature pen: "I'm going abroad these days, I'm going to trouble you, Teacher Wu."
