Mr.
Lu Xun once said: "Once life is regular, time will pass very quickly." ” Okay, it's not what Lu Xun said.
But Mu Ming does feel this way.
Wake up every morning and go for breakfast; Then during the day, if there is a class, I will go to class, and if there is no class, I will follow my brother and sister to make a film; At night, I play games, read books, and go to bed when I feel sleepy.
Then repeat the process the next day.
Occasionally, when I think about it, I will also care about the sales of "Soul Ferry".
"Soul Ferry" counted the pre-sale, and the sales on the first day were nearly 200,000; In less than two weeks, the sales exceeded half a million; One month after its official release, sales exceeded one million.
This kind of sales speed, even if it is placed on some famous fiction authors, is remarkable.
But after reaching the level of million sales, the sales rate gradually slowed down.
The initial sales of 500,000 only took more than ten days; It can go from one million to one and a half million, but it took more than two months.
Lin Caiwen told Mu Ming that according to their expectations for the glory of the year, there should be no problem with sales exceeding two million, but it is difficult to say how long it will take.
Mu Ming still attaches great importance to this issue, after all, the original contract stipulated that if the sales volume exceeded two million, he could get 12% of the royalty share.
Now he has a maximum of 10% progressive contracts, and the royalties are more than 3 million.
If you can get 12 percent, this number can be increased by another 70 percent.
Lin Caiwen has no complaints about this contract, first, this is the original contract; Second, although Mu Ming's share is higher, the biggest beneficiary is still their glorious years.
In fact, if the sales of "Soul Ferry" can really reach two million, Lin Caiwen would like to thank Mu Ming.
After all, being able to run a book with two million sales is too much of a boost to the reputation of a newly established publishing house.
Just like recently, because of the successful operation of "Soul Ferry", the brand of Glory Year has also gained some popularity in the industry.
Relying on the momentum of rapid rise and Lin Caiwen's style of not being short of money, Guangcai successfully cut off an excellent work from the hands of Yangtze River Literature and Art - "The Language of Floating Creatures" by Suo Luo Shuangshu.
Mu Ming is very happy that he has a new project in the prime of glory, because in this way, Lin Caiwen finally has no time to urge him every day when to write "Soul Ferry 2".
After a long time, Mu Ming picked out twelve of the best stories from the plots of the three seasons and wrote "Soul Ferry", and the ghost knew when he could come up with twelve new stories of the same quality.
Mu Ming hasn't figured out what she's going to write about her second book, but it won't be the second part of "Soul Ferry" anyway.
As for the seemingly unfinished button he left at the end of the last story, he has no plans to fill the hole for the time being.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it has turned from the scorching summer to the crisp autumn.
"Eleven" had a seven-day vacation, and Mu's mother originally wanted Mu Ming to go back, but at that time, Mu Ming was indulging in the study of filming and editing, and she was too lazy to squeeze back and forth during this kind of vacation, so she stayed at school.
When the child is at home, he dislikes it in every way, and he always misses the child when he is gone, and most parents in the world are like this.
Mu's mother is the same, her son, who has been raising her for nearly 20 years, suddenly left home, and there is a tendency to play off-road more and more, and she suddenly wants to make three calls a day.
Mu Ming couldn't resist Mu's mother, and she was indeed a little homesick, so she promised that she would go back before the end of October.
Mu Ming is October 31's birthday, at least she can still ensure that her eighteenth birthday is spent at home.
In fact, Mu Ming himself doesn't have any yearning for his birthday, especially when he was reborn because of an accident on his birthday night, so he is a little resistant to celebrating his birthday now.
But after all, it was a coming-of-age ceremony, and it was the first birthday after growing up and leaving home, so he still fulfilled Mu's mother's little wish and returned home on the 30th.
"On such an important day as my eighteenth birthday, don't you plan to give me any gifts?"
Just returned from celebrating her birthday at her grandparents' house, Mu Ming said to Mu's mother and Mu's father as she entered the door.
"Uh-huh, I can give you a warm hug."
Mu's mother joked. “…… Forget about hugging, I've received this gift too many times since I was a child.
When Mu Ming was in kindergarten, Mu's mother used this to deceive him, think about it carefully, he really hasn't received a few serious birthday gifts since he was a child.
"Haha!"
Mu's mother chuckled, patted Mu Ming's shoulder and said, "Although I didn't prepare a gift for you, your father prepared a gift for you a long time ago."
As he spoke, he deliberately glanced at Father Mu.
"Really?"
Mu Ming looked at the two who looked at each other and smiled suspiciously, and then looked at Mu Dad with a little expectation: "Dad, do you really have a gift?"
"Compared with Mu's mother, who takes off the thread from time to time, Mu's father is still very trustworthy.
Father Mu nodded, his face was a little strange, he pursed his lips, as if he hesitated for a moment, before he spoke: "From today onwards, you will be eighteen years old."
There was no mention of gifts, but rather a sigh.
"Yes, eighteen."

There was a light smile on the corner of Mu Ming's mouth: "I'm an adult." ” "It's an adult!"
Dad Mu said: "You have been very good since you were a child, and the only problem is that you are lazy."
Your mother and I have been worried about you, afraid that you won't think about your future.
Fortunately, since the college entrance examination, you have changed a lot and grown up a lot, and now you have your own ideas and future plans. ” Mu Ming was a little confused, what did Dad Mu mean by this.
Father Mu saw Mu Ming's puzzlement, and said seriously: "So my mother and I have decided, from now on we will let go, and your future is up to you."
As long as you don't regret it in the future, we support you. ” Looking at Mu Ming, who was a little sluggish in the amount of information she received, Dad Mu continued: "Didn't you say before that you wanted to learn directing?
With that, Dad Mu took out a note from his pocket and handed it to Mu Ming.
"It's a call from a director, and he's going to have a new project to shoot in a while, and you can go and learn from it."
Mu Ming took the note in a daze, and only a mobile phone number was written on it.
After being silent for a long time, Mu Ming raised her head and said, "Why did I never know that you still have a relationship in the entertainment industry!"
” "I don't have anything to do with the entertainment industry."
Dad Mu shook his head: "I just happened to know Mr.
Yang of Jingbei Guangcai, and she said that they just had a project to open recently, and I got this phone number from her." ” "But I have to tell you in advance, I can only provide you with this opportunity, and how well you can learn can only depend on yourself, understand?"
"I know, don't worry, Dad, I love you to death."
Mu Ming said excitedly, and then asked curiously: "By the way, what is the name of this director, and what kind of scene are you going to film?"
” Father Mu thought for a while, and said hesitantly: "The director's surname is Cao, and he seems to be quite famous."
As for the play?
It's a modern drama, what is it called......
'Streak Era'. ” "Naked ......
Ben era?
Mu Ming had a painful expression on her face: "Dad, are you sure this is a serious director?"
"Wow - this kind of name, no matter how you think about it, it's easy to associate it with the kind of little movie that is done by two or three people.
"Don't listen to your father's nonsense, it's called "The Age of Naked Marriage".
Mu's mother rolled her eyes angrily at Mu's father.
"The Age of Naked Marriage!"
Mu Ming's heart slammed suddenly, and then jumped rapidly.
Mu Ming, who was just a freshman in her previous life, was still an Internet addicted teenager who was addicted to games, and she was not interested in TV dramas or anything like that.
But even so, it does not prevent Mu Ming from knowing how popular this drama was back then.
Huading Award Top 10 TV Dramas of the Year, Top 10 TV Dramas of the Year at the National Drama Festival, and nominated for Best TV Series at the Magnolia Awards......
As the leading actors of this drama, Wen Zhang and Yao Di, one is among the first-class students, and the other has also become the most well-known post-80s flower.
Of course, the closer story of these two will be a later story.
In short, Mu Ming remembered that during the broadcast of this drama, there was basically no discussion about the drama in the same period.
And the most important point is that the director and leading actor of this drama later collaborated on a movie - "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love", a representative work that opened the Chinese film market and won a high box office at a small cost.
I don't know if I will have the opportunity to participate in this movie at that time.
"Ahem!"
Father Mu looked at Mu Ming, who was thinking about it, coughed and woke him up, and instructed: "Say it first, I don't care what you learn."
But if you fail in the final grades, you'd better think for yourself what the results will be. ” "Didn't you just say that you want to let go of my future?"
"Let go and let go, and you still have to take care of what should be managed." “…… OK, you're the biggest, you're happy. ”
