Chapter 625: Driving CrazyEdit
The plane took off with some bumps and flew towards the northwest direction. After Zhang Chu turned off his phone, he no longer felt sleepy. .
What happened today brought him a great shock, and now he regrets it. Why didn’t you write this book earlier?
If he had written it earlier, perhaps his popularity would be very different now!
However, Zhang Chu smiled self-deprecatingly. The fact that this book "The Da Vinci Code" is now based on his own readers.
If you start writing from scratch, you may have to wait for a long time before readers will find out that this book is excellent because of its excellent quality. You can't get the current high prepaid royalties and royalty tax rates.
The light shone down from the top of his head. Zhang Chu had already unfolded his sleeping equipment, but now he decided to take out the iPad and connect it to the wireless, and take advantage of this time to find out all the pictures needed for the illustration version.
It is obviously a bit heavy to bring a laptop when you come to travel. An iPad is a good choice. Not only is it easy to use, the battery power is still very long-lasting.
Zhang Chu chose a comfortable position to lean on the back of the chair. He first clicked on the email Blair sent to himself, which contained the official website of the museum or the internal management website address, username and password, so that it would make it easier for him to find it.
The Louvre, the French National Library, the Royal Observatory of Greenwich, and the London Archives Society are all famous professional websites. Zhang Chu must choose the right pictures from this professional institution and put them in the right place!
The vast pictures give him a feeling of meeting magnificent historical and artistic miracles. The Louvre was obviously the first choice, because from Mona Lisa to the last supper they all appeared here.
After saving these high-definition pictures, Zhang Chu made a serial number so that he could insert the pictures into the document at that time. This serial number is a mark.
The Vitruvians, the Church of St. Sulpis, the Roseline, the Virgin of the Rock, the Braune Forest, and even the Zurich Savings Bank, the Roslin Church, which Yang Xuan regarded as the Templar Church, etc.
If you can call the name, you can search directly in the picture library. If you can't call the name, you can only search slowly according to the classification. This is an extremely huge project!
As for mirrored text, he plans to find a software to input it later. This mirrored text can also be made into a picture form for readers to understand.
When Zhang Chu raised his head and pinched his neck, which was a little sore, he turned his head and looked at the view outside the window. The lights had changed from brightly lit to black. I don’t know where he is now!
Finding pictures is not an easy task. Zhang Chu feels that his eyes are going to be blind, and sometimes he can't tell the difference between several pictures.
Fortunately, he was instructive in searching and clarifying his goals, and it took him two or three hours to find a small part.
"There are things to pass the time when taking the train or waiting for the plane in the next few days."
Zhang Chu said to himself. After carefully remembering the progress, he put the iPad down, then put the back of the chair, wrapped it in a blanket and started to sleep.
It also takes 10 hours to fly directly from Yanjing to Istanbul. Due to the time difference and the rotation of the earth, the plane arrived at about 3 o'clock in the morning, so he had to hurry up and make up for his sleep!
The advantage of first-class cabin is that you can sleep in bed without having to sit all the way, and your butt and thighs can be numb.
Humans are strange creatures. The more they want to sleep, the more they can’t sleep!
After turning around, Zhang Chu simply entered the Savior system. He wanted to see the long-lost system.
"Is the reputation worth 150 million? This is a big increase!"
He could see that the number representing reputation value was still increasing continuously, at a very fast speed.
This time, it was entirely due to Random House's help to raise huge topics and attention around the world, because this time the news mainly focused on the writer Zhang Chu, and "The Da Vinci Code" was the second.
All media reported on the writers, because everything is unknown and there is no way to report it!
Now Zhang Chu uses reputation values at a speed far less than the speed at which he generates it. Apart from using the system to view novels from his previous life, he has no other uses.
Many of the system stores are pranks, and these things are not available.
Today he discovered another function of the system, which is a real private cinema!
He can see movies on the earth through the off-site help function. These movies appear in his mind, and the audio-visual effect is very awesome.
If you can use a system so salty, there may not be anyone else!
If the Savior System could beat people, Zhang Chu, the uninspiring host, would have been beaten up by a long time ago, and he should have learned from other time travelers.
Zhang Chu happily chose the film "Blade Runner 2049". The wasteland aesthetics and chronic poetry in the film helped him find his drowsy sleepiness in a moment.
Just when he was sleeping, the rest of the world had no time to rest, and they worked overtime.
October 6 is just a global press conference, and the specific launch date is October 10, so Nanhai Publishing Company must launch the hardcover and paperback novels!
As for the illustration version, it is considered a collection series, so there is no need to worry at all.
Fortunately, Zhang Chu had said before that the cover of the novel is Mona Lisa, and this painting is the most suitable for the title of the novel.
The review editors are reviewing common sense errors, spelling errors, policy errors, etc. when they stay up all night.
If you are an ordinary author, the editor will find the most favorable market selling point based on the content and let the author adjust the text!
For example, deleting content, in which direction is the text direction to be modified, directory frame classification, etc.
The content must be based on the fact that it does not involve sensitive words and does not violate the publication regulations, and then the modification suggestions will be sent to the author. After the modification is completed, the proofreading work will be carried out again.
But that is just an ordinary author. When the editor faces a famous author, he only has suggestions.
What the review editor needs to do when facing the manuscript submitted by the author is to find out the errors in logic, units, charts, regions, allusion citations, document source, etc.
But now the review editors of Nanhai Publishing Company want to cry, don’t bully people like this!
What Zhang Chu wrote is something they rarely come into contact with. The interpretation of Mona Lisa's portrait alone is enough to make these editors dumbfounded.
But there are more things beyond their ability and knowledge behind them. How to review this?
Not to mention the knowledge of religion, history, geography and art, they have never been to various churches. I don’t know if the description is accurate or whether it is in this place!
As for the mysterious symbols and the continuous riddle codes in Zhang Chu's novels, these review editors are even more crazy.
The Fibonacci sequence is completely in line with the golden section of Vitruvians, Mona Lisa's androgynous...
Novels with religion as the theme have been numerous since ancient times, and most of them are far-fetched fictional stories.
But "The Da Vinci Code" says boldly on the title page that "the content of this work is accurate." As a novel, such a claim is rare.
So this caused trouble for the editors. In order to reduce the loopholes and errors in the novel, they had to stay up late to make full use of Qiandu and Google search, and even recorded the problems one by one, preparing to find experts and scholars.
Zhang Chu gave a very good demonstration of how to drive crazy review editors!
