009 cover plan
On the last day of June, Ye Fan came home from school and walked into the door. He saw that Zhang Yang had arrived and was chatting with his grandparents.
Seeing Ye Fan coming back, Zhang Yang smiled and called Ye Fan over. Seeing this, Ye Fan guessed that Zhang Yang should have come with the contract, so he walked over and asked, "Uncle, here you are here, will you bring me good news today?"
"You are right. I'm bringing you a contract today." Zhang Yang said while opening the bag beside him. "The contract has been completed, but I thought about waiting for the sample of the novel. Today, I happened to come out, so I took it over and let you see it together." Without saying a word, he took out two contracts and several books from the bag.
When the two old men saw that they had something to talk about, they didn't bother and went into the house to watch TV together.
Ye Fan said with a clear expression on his face: "Oh? No wonder, then I want to take a good look." As he said that, he looked at the contract first, checked it with his past experience, and found that there was no problem.
Ye Fan put the two contracts aside and waited for his parents to come back to sign together. After all, he needed a guardian to sign together. Then he picked up the sample "Embroidered Chun Dao" and looked at it.
Sample 32 are printed, and according to the content of the novel, there are four volumes: "Embroidered Spring Sword Rain", "Embroidered Spring Sword Shura Battlefield", "Embroidered Spring Sword Remaining the Life of the Calamity", and "Embroidered Spring Sword Mountain and Sea of Fire" corresponding to a series of stories. This way the book is not thick, and it can be sold separately or in sets, which is convenient and flexible. Each book is priced at 10 yuan.
Ye Fan flipped through each of the books. There was basically no problem with the content printing. The only thing that I was not satisfied with was the cover. At this time, the cover of the book was still in the style of the 1990s, which was quite good in this era, but it was definitely uninnovative for Ye Fan. It even looked awkward, so he said to Zhang Yang: "Uncle, I have read this book, and it is basically OK. Is there any improvement in this cover?"
When Zhang Yang heard Ye Fan say this, he wondered: "This cover is good. It's all designed by the planning and publicity department. It's already a good-looking one in the publishing house. Why are you not satisfied? What do you think?"
Ye Fan replied: "I mean that if most books are like this now, they will not reflect the characteristics and differences of the "Embroidered Spring Sword" series. After all, I am a newcomer. If I want to sell books well, I must be unique."
"As for the idea..." Ye Fan was touching his chin and thinking, he heard a sound of playfulness coming. He glanced at the door and said, "It was not originally, but now it has it." After that, he rushed into the room in a hurry.
Zhang Yang was inexplicably made by Ye Fan. He heard the sound of playfulness disappear. He looked at the door and found that Cao Xin and Zeng Li were coming again. Just as he was looking here, he quickly greeted him.
"Uncle Yang, what's wrong with Xiaofan? Why did he run away when he saw us coming?" Cao Xin's face was happy, but when he saw Ye Fan's movements fell, Zeng Li said to him, "Hello, uncle."
"I don't know either. I was discussing things with Xiaofan just now." Zhang Yang said helplessly: "He seemed to suddenly think of something, so he ran into the room. Wait for him to come out and ask."
Upon hearing this, Cao Xin had to take Zeng Li to sit down at the table, waiting for Ye Fan to come out and see what was going on.
At this time, Ye Fan, who entered the house, found the small treasury and counted the money in it. There were more than a thousand yuan left. They had been saved up after so many years. I don’t know if it was enough. After knowing it, he put the small treasury and turned back to the yard.
When I saw the two girls, I was about to say hello when I heard Cao Xin say, "Xiaofan, why did you run away when you see us two? Are we so scary?"
Zeng Li also said: "Yes, Xiaofan, you run back to the house as soon as we come. Anyone who sees it will have ideas. If you have something to do, just tell Xiaoxin."
Seeing that the two women looked bad, Zhang Yang also had a look of watching the show, Ye Fan said depressedly: "I'm wronged. I was thinking about the problem with my uncle just now. When I saw you two, I thought of a solution. Why don't I want to see you? I still need your help."
Zeng Li said curiously: "Oh? What are we going to do?"
When Cao Xin heard this, she smiled again and said, "Really? If you want to say something reasonable, then I will forgive you."
So Ye Fan explained the causes and consequences and explained: "I didn't think of any way to cover the cover, but when I saw you coming, I thought of changing the cover."
Cao Xin shrank back and said with a vigilant look on her face: "What do you want to change the cover? Let's make a statement first, I have no money."
When Ye Fan heard Cao Xin's words, he looked dark, and Zhang Yang and Zeng Li laughed at the side.
"Who wants your money, Xiaocai is a fan of it." Ye Fan said angrily: "I mean I want to take photos, to be precise, costume photos. We play the characters in the book, and then take photos to make the cover of the book. I just entered the house to see how much money I had and whether it was enough to take photos at that time."
Zhang Yang suddenly said, "So that's it. Xiaofan, you have this idea. You haven't had such a cover before, but is it feasible?"
Ye Fan said: "This method is definitely feasible. Take a few more sets of costume photos and make exquisite covers. Are you worried about me, and are you worried about the appearance of Sister Xin and Sister Li?"
Zhang Yang looked at the two girls and nodded.
Cao Xin felt relieved when she heard this, and said happily: "Really, take photos or costume photos? If that's the case, I'll help you."
Zeng Li also said excitedly: "I have seen a girl in our school take photos, which are really good. I want to take photos for a long time. When will we go to take photos at Xiaofan?"
After seeing the two women agree, Ye Fan calmly said: "No hurry. First, we must determine the role we play, and also find a photography museum that is suitable for the role costumes. I have someone to choose the characters. Jiang Asheng, Chen Lian, Zhou Miaotong, Hokage and Ding Baiying, choose 4 roles, which correspond to 4 books. Who do you want to play?"
Zeng Li asked, "Xiaofan, who do you want to play?" Ye Fan thought for a while: 'After all, there is only one Jianyu. If you act it yourself in the future, Chen Lian will definitely be more suitable. First, deepen the impression of the people's people'. So he replied, "I want to play Chen Lian."
Cao Xin heard this and said, "Then I will discuss it with Sister Li."
Ye Fan looked at the two girls who were discussing quietly and thought: 'In the book, I set it up to be in love with Hokage in the plot of Shura Battlefield. Zhou Miaotong and Hokage are sisters. In this timeline, it is more reasonable to pretend to like Zhou Miaotong in the back to protect her. Sister Xin can play Zhou Miaotong, is Sister Li playing Ding Baiying or Hokage? I feel that Ding Baiying is more charming. There is no way. In the movie, it is not said that it is in vain. That sword is too handsome.'
Seeing that the two women gradually agreed, Ye Fan came back to his senses and asked, "How was the decision?"
Cao Xin said: "I am going to pretend to be Zhou Miaotong, and I happen to be my sister."
Ye Fan nodded after hearing this, then looked at Zeng Li and found that Zeng Li's face turned pink.
Zeng Li said with a pink face, "I'm going to pretend to be Hokage." After that, he didn't go to see Ye Fan, while Cao Xin was smiling secretly from the side.
Ye Fanze was a little surprised and suddenly understood something. He didn't say anything if he wanted Zeng Li to pretend to be Ding Baiying, so he could only nod.
Zhang Yang looked at Ye Fan and Zeng Li, and said thoughtfully: "Xiao Fan, since that's the case, then that's it. You guys have finished filming and take it to me. I'll go back to tell the club later, don't rush to print the novel."
Cao Xin suddenly thought about something and asked Ye Fan: "By the way, Xiao Fan, we are all settled. What should I do if the remaining one is there? Who should I find to dress up?"
Ye Fan said with a mysterious look on his face when he heard this: "Don't worry, I already have someone to choose Jiang Asheng, you will know in a while."
Cao Xin curled her lips disdainfully: "Tsk, pretend to be a ghost." Zeng Li also looked curious.
Zhang Yang remained silent and probably had guessed who it was.
Everyone was chatting for a while and then they heard another movement from the door. After Ye Fan heard the sound, he said to Cao Xin: "Listen, Jiang Asheng is here." As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Ye Chu walking in.
Cao Xin and Zeng Li suddenly realized and gave Ye Fan a thumbs up.
When Ye Chu saw this scene, he looked puzzled.
At this time, I heard Wu Chuchu calling everyone to eat. Well, Zhang Yang successfully got another meal.
During the meal, Ye Fan told Ye Chu that Long Qumei was about to be a show of Jiang Asheng and took photos together. Ye Chu agreed immediately.
After dinner, Zhang Yang said goodbye and went home, and Ye Chu went back to the house to do his homework. Cao Xin took Ye Fan and Zeng Li for a walk.
On Friday night, the passenger flow on the commercial street increased a lot compared to usual. Cao Xin and Zeng Li walked in front and chatted happily, Ye Fan walked behind and looked at the backs of the two women, feeling this warm moment.
When smartphones become popular in the future, and Ye Fan and Zeng Li become celebrities, it will not be so easy to go shopping or take a walk.
Ye Fan saw the two of them suddenly stop. He saw Cao Xin turn around and ask, "Xiao Fan, have you written songs recently?" Zeng Li also looked over with anticipation.
Ye Fan walked forward slowly, and said with a puzzled look on his face: "Why did you suddenly ask this?"
When Ye Fan walked up and saw a street singer standing on the roadside in front of him, singing on the guitar, he understood.
Ye Fan said helplessly: "Just take a walk, what songs should you sing? Stop making trouble, go."
Cao Xin did not accept it, so she ran up and said a few words to the singer, then ran back and said to Ye Fan, "I have already agreed to you that you can use his guitar, so you can sing one. As a sister, I haven't heard you sing well. If I really haven't, just sing the previous song. I don't dislike you, hehe."
Ye Fan understood that the two of them were having fun, so he asked, "I can't play guitar now, how can I use it? I'm talking about how embarrassing this person is, forget it." After that, he was about to leave.
Zeng Li suddenly grabbed Ye Fan's neck and said, "Xiao Fan, I want to listen to your singing too, so you can try it."
Ye Fan was about to refuse, but when he saw Zeng Li even used the method of acting cute. His lips moved, and after thinking about it, he finally walked over.
Seeing this scene, Cao Xin curled her lips speechlessly and said, "I'm more important than sister." What did she think of again? She smiled and said something in Zeng Li's ears. Zeng Li's face turned red and she reached out to scratch Cao Xin's body and started playing. Passers-by looked at the two beautiful girls following Ye Fan, and couldn't help but envy her.
Ye Fan took the singer's guitar and asked for simple rhythms and operations. While familiarizing himself with the rhythm, he thought about the songs he wrote before, which songs were suitable for simple playing.
"I have it." Ye Fan's eyes lit up suddenly and he said to Zeng Li and Cao Xin: "I'm ready to sing, come here."
Cao Xin and Zeng Li stopped fighting after hearing this and walked quickly to Ye Fan.
Seeing this, Ye Fan started his performance, "Ding~Ding~Ding~Ding..." The crisp and rhythmic sound of playing slowly followed by the clear singing of the boy: "On this day, I began to look up at the stars and find that the stars are not far away, and the dream is not far away. As long as you tiptoe, I believe that there are a pair of hands that gently hold me to you... I will no longer be confused or shy, open my arms, fly higher and farther with you, and start looking up at the stars, feel like love, the time and space of love, and find the most brilliant highlights in life..."
When Ye Fan's singing ended, there were warm applause coming from around him. Ye Fan realized that there were already many people around him, and someone was already shouting about a song. The singers next to him were envious.
Seeing that the situation was wrong, Ye Fan quickly returned the guitar to the singer and thanked him: "Thank you for your guitar, and thank you everyone, thank you everyone."
After saying that, he pulled Zeng Li and Cao Xin and ran out until he found that there were no enthusiastic audiences behind him. He let go of the two of them and sighed in relief and complained: "Now, sing a song to make such a big fun. You are happy. I am regarded as a lively center and watch it. What if anyone takes a fancy to my beauty and goes forward to force the handsome man."
"Hahahaha, don't worry," Cao Xin said with a smile: "They all want to sing another song, how can you be willing to catch you? If you really catch you, don't worry, we will help you call 110."
Zeng Li looked at Ye Fan deeply and said with admiration: "I didn't even notice that there were so many people around me. I was shocked when I clapped. By the way, Xiaofan, what's the name of your song? It's so inspirational. Is it a new song?"
"The song is called "Looking up at the Starry Sky", which is a new song. I'm going to sing after learning the guitar. Now I'm going to be on the shelves. My sisters are satisfied." Ye Fan rolled his eyes and continued, "I'm still a child. I'm scared. You don't want to comfort me. I'm so miserable."
Cao Xin and Zeng Li were amused by these words, and Cao Xinze said with a domineering look on his face: "Let's go, my sister will buy you candied haws, it's enough to comfort you." Zeng Lize said: "Xiao Fan is so smart and talented. One is not enough. You have to buy two to comfort you."
Ye Fan said speechlessly: "Is this a comfort to me or you two want to eat candied haws? Hurry up and buy them. After buying them, it's not too early to go home." After that, he walked home.
Suddenly Ye Fan thought of something and asked Cao Xin: "By the way, sister, what did you say to that singer? He is willing to lend me the guitar. Isn't it usually asking for money?"
Cao Xin said proudly: "I told him that my brother sang better than you. If you don't believe it, lend you the guitar to sing. If you don't sing well, you pay. If you sing well, you can use it for free. If you break it, just ask you to compensate you." After that, he giggled with Zeng Li.
When Ye Fan heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he was unable to complain, so he could only sigh to the sky: "I met my sister."
Seeing this, the two laughed and screamed.
-------------------
There are still a few chapters to lay the foundation for the plot in the middle of the university. Then, the pricing and sales data of books from that era were not found, so the author could only make the decisions by himself with some approximate data. I hope readers will forgive me. Anyone with the recommendation votes can help vote for a recommendation vote. Thank you.
Chapter completed!
