Rebirth As a Writer In Britain

Chapter 30: Editor Zela's Delusion

So, Lavin called Editor Zela over.

"Vice President Lavin, are you looking for me?" Zela didn't dare to hesitate after hearing Lavin's call, and immediately went to his office.

"Dear Zella, I also tried to talk to Kevin. But the result was the same as yours, and he was rejected by the other party. I think we must come up with a wonderful work and let this young man know about it. He is not the only one who can write in the world." LaVine also expressed his thoughts without concealment.

"I didn't expect President Lavine to agree with me. I think Augustine's "Sounds of Nature under the Moon" is quite good, and his father was a well-known writer. Augustine himself also inherited his Father's talent," Zela said.

"Well, my thoughts are the same as yours. I've read "Sounds of Nature under the Moon" too, and it's pretty good. Our first printing can also produce 100,000 copies like "Jane Eyre". But I I heard that "Jane Eyre" may be printed and listed again next week, and I don't know how their secondary sales will be? If the secondary sales are good, it proves that "Jane Eyre" is indeed as good as it says on the website Wonderful." LaVine wondered.

"President Lavin, don't worry, I think the first sales of "Jane Eyre" are so hot, it's all because Kevin won the literary championship, and the publisher's promotion. There are not many authentic works like this. Content, I believe its secondary sales will definitely rush. You know that Jennings was like this back then." Zela said confidently.

The Jennings that Zela said was once a "genius" in the British literature field. The publication of the first poetry collection set the best record in sales of poetry collections in the past five years. At that time, the whole of the UK thought that Jennings's second sale would be even more popular, and it was very hopeful that he would become the number one poetry seller in the world.

It's a pity that after people famously bought his poetry collection, they regretted it one after another. It was found that his poems were not as beautiful as they were advertised before publication, and some works were even suspected of plagiarism. Numerous negative news also surfaced the scandal of his sales hype, and the second sale of poetry collections has also been shelved.

"Zera means that Kevin's current situation is similar to that of Jennings back then. These sales and the news on Twitter are all hype by the publisher?" LaVine seemed to understand something and asked directly.

"Dear Vice President Lavin, I think it should be. Otherwise, do you think Twitter will be so popular? Of course, unless Shakespeare exists in the world at this moment." Zela explained.

In Zela's heart, she always thought that Kevin's "Jane Eyre" was so popular in its first printing. It's just because of the hype caused by the navy hired by the publisher. Not the real strength.

And now Kevin has offended Lavin again. As the vice president, it is tantamount to offending Dehai Publishing House. A rookie, even if Kevin is really capable, it will be difficult to get along.

Therefore, Zela has reason to believe that he was not wrong at the beginning, and such an arrogant author will not go far on the road of literature.

Lavin thought for a moment, then nodded, feeling that what Zela said made some sense.

"Well, you will be in charge of Augustine's work. I hope this work can save face for our Dehai Publishing House and beat "Jane Eyre"." Lavin ordered.

"Don't worry, Vice President Lavin. I am confident that this work will become an annual bestseller." Zela's face is still full of confidence.

After Zela came out of Lavin's office, he immediately called Augustine and invited him to Dehai Publishing House.

When Augustine heard Zela say it was about the new book, he hurried over from school immediately without saying a word.

"Dear editor Zela, hello. I am very glad to see your beautiful face again today, just like the morning sun giving people good hope."

"Really? He is really a talented kid. As far as you said just now, he is no worse than Kevin. Everything he has now is just because he won the London Literary Competition. If it were you, he would definitely surpass him." When Zela heard Augustine's praise, she also had a smile on her face.

Zela's words touched Augustine a lot, because he also thought so in his heart. He saw that Kevin's "Jane Eyre" sold so well for the first time because of his name and the hype of the publisher. rather than strength. After all, he and Kevin have been in the same class for so long, so he understands Kevin's ability very well.

Therefore, Augustine said confidently: "Thank you, editor Zela, for your appreciation. Oh, editor Zela asked me to talk about "Sounds of Nature Under the Moon"?"

"Yes, Vice President Lavin also talked to me just now, saying that your "Sounds of Nature under the Moon" is very good and can become a bestseller in the UK this year. I know you must be looking forward to this matter, so, immediately Informing you to come," Zela said.

Augustine was very happy when he heard the news. After all, Zela meant that Dehai Publishing House would package and promote his "Sounds of Nature under the Moon". This is something every writer dreams of.

"That's really thanks to editor Zela and Dehai Publishing House. Please rest assured that I am confident that "Sounds of Nature under the Moon" has the ability to become one of the best-selling books this year." Augustine has always been confident since he was a child, and now he is confident more obvious.

"That's good. In fact, our meaning is also very obvious, that is, your grades are better than Kevin's "Jane Eyre". You must know that Kevin's "Jane Eyre" has caused a lot of discussion on Twitter." Zela told Augustine the truth.

"Editor Zela, don't worry. Kevin and I are in the same class. Over the years, I know his literary level very well. In the past, he couldn't write a summary of activities well, and I don't know what's wrong now, but he can I have won the literature contest." Augustine said.

"Oh, there is such a thing. That's a hell." Zela was also surprised.

But when Zela heard this, she was even more sure that her judgment was correct. Kevin's literary level may not be that outstanding, otherwise no one would have known about it before.

Thinking of this, she and Augustine are more confident that "Sounds of Nature Under the Moon" will surpass "Jane Eyre" this time and become one of the best-selling books this year.

"Augustin, your father is also famous in the literary world. You can ask him to help you promote and promote it. Maybe this will benefit your sales a lot," Zela reminded.

"It's natural, my father agreed to it a long time ago." Augustine said. "That's good, then we will sign a contract later, and then start our big plan. Oh, congratulations, Mr. Augustine, you are a great writer in the future, and your achievements will surpass your father." Zela explain.

Augustine has the packaging and promotion of Dehai Publishing House this time. He believes that his works will also be made into movies like his father's, and then he will become a famous screenwriter himself. (Papaya feels that I have very few recommendations and rewards.
