House Dad’s Literary Life Chapter 50

Chapter 50 – Broken Qiang Zi

“Almost finished?”

“When will the book be finished?”

“Have you finished it all?”

The SNS jumped crazily and there was a series of questions. Qiang Zi’s excited look could be perceived through the screen.

After thinking about the development of the plot, Yang Yi typed on the keyboard: “Next week or so.”

Qiang Zi felt his heart twitching… It’s finish by next week? What the heck is this? So soon, no matter it’s Boss Hu’s side, or his homepage cover recommendation, it is too late to apply and arrange!

“Can’t you write more?” Asked Qiang Zi weakly.

“No.” The same simple and despairing reply.

Qiang Zi counted. Yang Yi’s novel has about 300,000 to 500,000 characters.

Qiang Zi’s head was a little dizzy, but he still knows his priorities. He organized his words and continued to ask, “Yang Yi, what are you going to write about your next book? Will you still write military novels?”

Being asked this question, Yang Yi actually hasn’t made any plans for his new book.

However, if there’s no plans, just think of one now!

“Maybe about the army. I have a general idea.” Yang Yi replied.

For example, “Drawing Sword” that he had considered before, and which he very much liked in his previous life, especially the novel version (uncensored). He was not very interested in the army or the war, but Li Yunlong’s character was too pleasing. As an assassin with a chivalrous heart, Yang Yi particularly admired Li Yunlong’s bravery and fearlessness to the enemy, how he treats his brothers with a sincere heart, and his strong tenderness to his lover.

The novel is also more than 450,000 words. Moreover, the chapter breaks are better than “Soldier Assault”. After all, “Drawing Sword” pioneered commercial military novels, and is better adapted to people’s reading than TV dramas in all aspects.

However, it has more problems than “Soldier Assault”. After all, this world’s history is different from Yang Yi’s previous life. The trend has not changed, but the details are very different. If Yang Yi wants to “carry” this novel over, he himself had to study this world’s modern history and war history, and then adapt the story according to the history of this world.

It’s a lot of work!

However, a little challenge is interesting!

Yang Yi felt that his literary accomplishment was not bad. To adapt a popular work in his previous life into his own work, and then make the people of this world also crazy about it, that would be a great sense of achievement!

Yang Yi had a lot of ideas in his mind, but Qiang Zi didn’t know that Yang Yi had just come up with it. When he saw the reply from SNS, he was very happy and quickly typed: “Then I would like to ask you, Yang Yi, no matter what, to publish your work on our website!”

“?” Yang Yi returned a puzzled expression.

“If you choose our website to continue to publish your work, then I will arrange more recommended positions for you, so that your works can be well promoted. Although the company does not have its own channels for physical publication, it will also help you get in touch. This can also increase your income!”

However, if Qiang Zi didn’t mentioned these things, after finishing the book, Yang Yi will definitely continue to publish his new works on the Qiyue Chinese Website. He doesn’t have that much time to wrestle with the problem of changing boss.

But Yang Yi was not a fool. He gave Chen Yijie a concession before, because he received Grandpa Hu’s favor!

But at other times, Yang Yi is not a selfless guy. He will not give up his own interests easily. Otherwise, why should he “collect” commission when dealing with corrupt officials and acting for heaven?

When Qiang Zi was anxious to get him to stay, Yang Yi realized that he was not dispensable, or perhaps a fragrant steamed bun! (TN: No idea on what steamed bun represent here.)

What’s the situation?

Yang Yi soon found the answer. In fact, it was on his book review area. It was so late, and there were people who wanted Yang Yi to go to the Iron Blood Network! As it happened, many editors have gotten off work, and the speed of deleting posts has slowed down…

By the way, Yang Yi also glanced at the posts that sprayed him. (TN: Sprayed – give bad/negative comments, swearing, and unreasonable accusations.)

Some people scolded his literary talent? Called this story bullsh*t, called the protagonist loser, and even called the author is S13? Why are there so many sprays in the internet? And also blindly looked for Yang Yi? (TN: S13 = SB. As for the meaning of SB, clicked here: and looked for SB)

Yang Yi’s eyes were cold. However, he just kept this matter in his mind, and then slowly settle this account later! There will always be a day to make them “comfortable”!

“That’s all? What better terms do you have?” Yang Yi’s reply came only after a long time.

Qiang Zi was stupefied. He didn’t know how to reply for a while.

But Yang Yi’s second sentence came, and it made him almost jumped up: “It seems that someone asked me to go to the Iron Blood Network? What about the Iron Blood Network?”

“Don’t go!”

“Why?”

Qiang Zi held it for a long time before he replied, “Because the Iron Blood Network can’t give you enough readers!”

This is actually not wrong. After all, Qiyue Chinese Website is the largest literary website in the country. It has a wide variety of columns, and a huge library, so that its audience has been maintained in the industry’s highest scale, even accounting for half of the country is not an overstatement!

And Iron Blood Network, because it was too specialized, will always attract only a handful of military enthusiasts and veterans.

However, Yang Yi was silent.

Qiang Zi was also poor at expressing, much less mention what conditions to give Yang Yi. He suddenly had an inspiration and replied: “Yang Yi, is it convenient for you to leave your address? I think it’s more convenient to talk about it face to face. You can talk about whatever conditions you feel are right!”

After a while, Yang Yi sent his address, and also attached his contact information. This made Qiang Zi finally relieved. As long as he can see the real person, Qiang Zi felt that there was hope to make Yang Yi stay!

Even if Qiang Zi doesn’t have this ability, Qiyue Chinese Website still has experts who are good at negotiation!

However, the relationship with the author still has to be maintained. Qiang Zi drank a large mouthful of coffee that has already turned cold, refreshed himself, and was ready to continue to deepen his relationship with Yang Yi: “Yang Yi, there is a question that I’m curious about. At the beginning. Xu Sanduo fell off the bridge. Later, did he die?”

However, it was as if his words were like a stone that had been dropped into the sea again. Just like his previous private message, there was no reply…

“Yang Yi, are you still there?”

“Hello?”

“???”

“……”

Where did Yang Yi go?

Turning back the time a few minutes ago, Yang Yi had just finished sending his address, when very coincidentally, the phone rang!

Yang Yi thought it was the editor who saw his number calling. When he picked it up, he didn’t even look who it was. “Hello?”

His tone was still very casual, and a little indifferent.

“Hello, surnamed Yang. What are you doing?” Mo Fei asked coldly. The Scorpio iceberg big sister seems to be in a terrible mode of suspicion again. (TN: Explanation of Scorpio at the end of chapter)

Why is he so indifferent to my calls?

He didn’t sound like that yesterday!

Call him, care about him… his daughter, and he’s still angry and unhappy? (TN: Angry and unhappy: Raw was “throwing his face”)

The fire spread all of a sudden.

Yang Yi was confused by Mo Fei’s tone of voice. What was the situation? Did she eat some gunpowder?

However, Yang Yi has improved since then. After reading some books about parenting, he has learned a valuable skill!

______

TN: Scorpio female personality is sensitive, indifferent, extreme, and her personality is introverted and conservative. She is good at disguising herself and revenge her heart. The reaction is sharp and the reflex nerves are developed.
