Chapter 72 Piracy and Genuine

After saying this, Zheng Jia, who was relatively thin, was about to cry again. Tong Yao glared at Xu Nuo, and quickly interrupted to explain to everyone and comforted Zheng Jia.

"Don't be afraid, anyway, you have chosen to be a full-time writer. You will lose something if you have gains. This is normal. Besides, although your grades are poor, you have passed all the exams. We will graduate after this year. For you, it will have little impact on your grades, a little better or worse."

When Xu Nuo and Meng Xue heard that Zheng Jia chose to be a full-time writer, they really changed the subject and chatted around Zheng Jia for a long time. Meng Xue suddenly exclaimed.

"Ah! I'm just chatting and forgetting everything. Come on, look at the local specialties I bring to you!!!"

Everyone looked at Meng Xue curiously.

Her family is from a large southern city, so she can have a specialty.

Just as everyone's curious eyes were filled with curious eyes, Meng Xue took out a thick stack of books from her suitcase.

"Book?"

Seeing that it was a book, everyone became even more curious.

However, after reading the title of the book clearly, everyone raised their voices and started screaming!

"Southern sword, northern sword? Wow!!!"

"Tong Yao! It's your book!!!"

"It's published! It's really published!!!"

...

Everyone was jumping excitedly and shouting, including Tong Yao. This happiness came too suddenly. To compare, the happiness of getting the physical book would even be higher than the 80,000 yuan.

This book is a big eight-year-old book cover, with a white plastic cover and exquisitely made. It is painted with two protagonists in the book. One sword and one sword are fighting on the grassland. On it, it is four large characters, namely the south sword and the north sword, and a line of small characters are written next to the title of the book - written by Tong Yao!!!

Tong Yao picked up a book, stroked it carefully, and it took a long time to smile and open it.

This book was re-reviewed and typesetted by the publishing house, and the number of words was compressed to 450,000. The plot of Tong Yao's water was basically deleted.

Priced at 32.5! Meng Xue got a total of eight books!

"Come on, each of you two has one book! All the remaining six are for Tong Yao!"

"Give me?"

Tong Yao was stunned. At this time, Xu Nuo took one and asked.

"Don't you keep one?"

Meng Xue explained with a smile.

"I bought more than ten books, I left one at home, and gave some of my relatives a few. I told them that this was written by my roommate. Their eyes were wide open, and my sister-in-law was yelling to ask you, the writer, to sign her! Don't be so funny. As for giving you so much, I asked you to take it home, and to show your relatives and friends, so that they could also glar at them, hahaha..."

Xu Nuo nodded very much in agreement and agreed.

"Yes, yes, only after publishing things is qualified to be a writer. You have to take them back and brag, why don't you give me more evenness?"

Tong Yao smiled and nodded, carefully handed the five books into her suitcase, then took one and put it next to her pillow, and flipped it out while she was about to go to bed.

The copyright of this book has been sold for almost ten months. She is looking forward to seeing the real physical book every day, and her patience has long been exhausted. Unexpectedly, when she was least looking forward to it, the book suddenly came to her hands.

"Meng Xue, where did you buy this book? I'll give you the money."

Tong Yao was about to give money, and Meng Xue waved her hand with a smile.

"Don't, it hurts your feelings. Besides, I didn't spend money on this book. I asked my distant relative to buy it from the bend. People confiscated my money. Why do I have the nerve to collect your money?"

After Meng Xue finished speaking, she patted her forehead again and spoke with a smile.

"By the way, right, and there's something else, I almost forgot..."

Then she carried a bunch of books out of her suitcase.

"This is Zheng Jia's, look, "Three Thousand Years with Ghosts"!!!"

"ah?"

After hearing this, Zheng Jia and Tong Yao exclaimed at the same time.

"I...my? My book is published? This...I..."

Zheng Jia picked up the book and looked at it. The black cover was also a book with eight open spaces. The title of the book is "Three Thousand Years with Ghosts". The author is Zheng Jia. This is all right. After opening the content, I looked at it and the content inside was correct.

However, compared with Tong Yao's book, her book is printed too roughly.

The paper inside is blue and black, thin and poor, the book cover is completely black, and there is no pattern. Just the title and the author, the content inside is not typed, it is exactly what is posted on the website.

"Haha, are you curious? I'm also curious, but later I asked the boss who sold the book and finally figured it out."

"What the hell is going on? My book doesn't sell copyright at all...how could it be published?"

"The boss said, young people like to read the Internet now. If you like it, there will be a market. So some people secretly download good books from the Internet, bind and print them and sell them."

"Ah? Is this okay? Isn't this illegal?"

"So I'm selling this book secretly. I accidentally found it at a book stall selling books on the roadside. Each book costs 5 yuan, and it's cheaper if you want."

After Meng Xue explained to everyone, she picked up three books.

"Look, there are still one, two or three volumes. I probably read it, but the book has not been printed..."

puff!

Tong Yao was happy and joked.

"That's because Zheng Jia hasn't finished writing yet, haha..."

Although he knew it was a pirated copy, Zheng Jia was still very excited. He held three black books for a long time and couldn't bear to let go. Everyone knew that this was a very good thing. If you took this book to the village, you would definitely be able to brag for the rest of your life. The villagers can't tell the difference between the pirated copy and the authentic version.

"Sorry, I heard from the boss that your book is popular, and only seven books are left, and I will give you all."

Meng Xue scratched her head.

These seven books are not complete.

The first volume of three books, the second volume of one book, and the third volume of three books, has too many words, so when the pirates are bound, they divide it into three books.

Only about 1.3 million words were printed in these three books.

It is probably because Zheng Jia published only 1.3 million words at that time.

One black and one white, it is quite interesting to put the two books "Southern Sword and North Sword" and "Three Thousand Years of Ghost" together.

One is genuine, one is pirated.

One sold for 80,000 yuan, and the other sold for several thousand yuan per month and still continued to produce profits.

One of them has not been well published, while the other has not been sold, but the copyright of the other has been published by pirated merchants.

Two books are like two people, perhaps like the actual situation Zheng Jia and Tong Yao face at this moment, only they know the joy or sorrow, and only they can taste it themselves.

Zheng Jia received the seven books in her suitcase. As Meng Xue said, she did plan to take these books home next holiday and give them a good look to her grandfather and grandma, so that they can be happy and proud of themselves.

On September 3, 2005, Tong Yao's junior year career officially began.
Chapter completed!
