What should I do if the system forces me to copy books?

Yanjing International Airport.

This is the first time that Li Chungang is "fully armed" like a star to hide himself. The standard three-piece set of cap, sunglasses, and mask all came in handy. Fortunately, he found that he was not "alone" when he walked out of the exit. It's not uncommon to see people with similar costumes like this in the airport where there are many people coming and going.

And coincidentally...

When he walked out of the exit, he saw a large group of young girls waiting outside the exit. Most of them were holding idol signs in their hands. The words on it read "Kun" Kun", this makes it impossible for Li Chungang, who is completely blank in the field of domestic young male idols, to guess who it is. With his shallow knowledge, he can also recognize some newly debuted girl groups. As for the man, all I can say is sorry.

"It's been a long time."

"No, it's just arrived not long ago."

Seeing the slim and graceful He Miao standing next to the Audi, lowering his head and fiddling with his mobile phone, Li Chungang quietly approached her side with a smirk on the corner of his mouth, and only opened his mouth after putting his left face close to her right cheek.

boo——

He Miao's thin lips, which turned her head, were printed on Li Chungang's left face so naturally, leaving a light lip mark.

It is said that a new marriage is better than a new marriage. Although the two have not yet officially obtained a marriage certificate, they have already lived together. It is not like a new marriage is better than a new marriage. Usually, even if they spend most of the week in school, at least weekends can still be "tired" Together, unlike this trip to the United States, where we have been separated for nearly two weeks, the relationship will naturally heat up, which can be seen from the fact that she specially put on makeup.

on the way home.

"I didn't expect that you would choose to return to China at this moment of turmoil."

"What's the matter, I think it will be enough after a few more days of excitement, not to mention that I didn't intend to bully the readers, but they had too much brains and made a wrong association, thinking it was the book "Lord of the Mysteries" The new book is out, so can you blame me."

"..."

Although they are abroad, Li Chungang and Lin Meng are paying attention to some "turmoil" in China every day. Most of the netizens are talking about his cooperation with Random House this time, and The new work "Lord of the Rings" is about to be published all over the world. Only the readers and book friends in their own nests suddenly turned their guns and condemned "the most pure and the best" after learning the truth.

[The old thief Chungang is not a son of man, he is making fun of us book friends! 】

[You meow actually told me that it was "The Lord of the Rings", not "Lord of the Mysteries", do you know that I slapped my chest in front of my friends and swore that it would definitely be "The Lord of the Rings", and it turned out!In the end, you show me this!Do you know that my face is still swollen for the third day! 】

[Bah~ Good old thief of Chungang. 】

【Analyze as fierce as a tiger together, and see the result of two hundred and five! 】

[I have lost more face in the past few days than I have lost in the whole year of 2021! 】

[In order to denounce the excessive behavior of the old thief Chungang, I decided...not to subscribe to today's update, and save it for tomorrow. 】

【…】

Li Chungang said that he was also very wronged when this "black dragon" happened. He didn't know that readers and book friends would mistake the news posted on his Weibo for "Lord of the Mysteries".

The "condemnation" of book lovers on the Internet was extremely hot. They expressed strong resistance to Li Chungang's behavior of intentionally showing off and causing misunderstandings. It's not that you can't be tolerant and forgiving if you let it out!

Not to mention the readers and book friends, the small group of editors on the Fantasy Classification Channel of Longteng Chinese Network are eagerly looking forward to when Zhichun Zhigang's new book "Lord of the Mysteries" will be released, such as fantasy, city, etc. Not to mention that channels like history, sci-fi, games, and light novels are all well-off and prosperous every year. Pity the children of these unpopular channels such as fantasy and suspense.

The editors of popular channels are counting year-end bonuses and year-end bonuses every year until their hands cramp.

The editors of unpopular channels watch the year-end awards and year-end dividends every year and cry.

"It's all trivial. When the next part of "The Lord of the Rings" is finished, during the summer vacation, I plan to work hard to finish "Full-time Master" in one go, and then open a new hole in "Lord of the Mysteries". As for now...let the readers make a fuss first, it's better to urge new books than to urge new ones every day!"

Li Chungang thinks it is also good to find some topics that can divert attention from readers and fans, at least to save them from always urging updates in various fancy ways.

This fan's "fancy reminder" has already made the news. I saw a news on the daily headlines before that a certain online article author did not update, and some fans found the author's details. After the residence address, I ran across the province and put him under house arrest. I didn't do anything, and stood behind the author for the rest of the day except for sleeping time, forcing the code to be updated.

Although I don't know whether this news is true or not, it all shows a problem, that is, writing is risky, and you need to be cautious when writing a book!

Before Li Chungang returned home, his text messages and WeChat messages became busy. To sum it up, they were basically asking about his new book "Lord of the Rings".But I returned home after patting my ass, Lin Meng and Qin Jingtian and other members of the team can't help it, there are still some specific "hand tails" that need to be resolved with Random House, and it is estimated that it will take about a week time to return home.

at the same time.

In the chairman's office of Manjinghua Publishing Company Headquarters in Yanjing, Dong Sicheng looked at all the collected information about Li Chungang's new book "The Lord of the Rings" sent by his subordinates on the computer screen, and fell into deep thought.

To be honest, he can say that he is very optimistic about the book "Lord of the Rings" after reading the content. It's just that Manjinghua Company seems to be unparalleled in the country if it wants wind and rain, but it ignores the huge China's overseas market is nothing at all.

As the chairman of Manjinghua Publishing Company, he wanted to persuade Li Chungang to hand over "The Lord of the Rings" to him for publishing and operation, but as Li Chungang's friend, he couldn't do it no matter what.

In fact, fantasy was quite popular in the early years, but now fantasy is popular!

Whether it is in the field of the Internet or the field of physical books, more and more people read fantasy.

Elements such as magic, wizards, grudges, knights, and lords are all slightly outdated, so how does Li Chungang use these outdated elements to revitalize them?

"I really look forward to the expressions of people from abroad after reading this book. I think they will be as shocked as I was when I read it... right!"

The corners of Dong Sicheng's mouth raised slightly, he no longer thought about these things that had become a settlement, but began to think about the things that he would be busy with next.

Chapter 541 The Teacher's Favorite Kind of Student

Xinlang News: [Li Chungang's world premiere of a new fantasy book, titled "Lord of the Rings"! 】

Phoenix News: [The well-known web writer Zhichun Zhigang announced that the new book "The Lord of the Rings" will be released globally in June, and the three volumes will be released simultaneously. 】

China New Youth Network: [Li Chungang's new book "The Lord of the Rings" intends to create a new magical world! 】

The Paper: [Your long-awaited book title finally appeared, and Li Chungang announced the title of the new book for the first time at the global press conference. 】

Such news immediately began to flash the screen, which made Yin Yingzhe, who has always been unimpressed with literary works, whether traditional or online, startled.

What's going on with this network background? Isn't it as simple as an author announcing the title of a book at a press conference?

How to make the whole world seem to be celebrating and feel honored!

Whatever it's called.

Anyway, no matter what, I won’t go to see it!

Yin Yingzhe sneered silently in his heart, "It's clear that there are studios or big companies playing viral marketing behind it! Such a young billionaire is still made by writing novels. He just wants to trick us into writing books." , I’d better go to Dubai to pick up trash.”

As a loyal two-dimensional boy, what he likes are fresh and exciting love stories, and what he likes is passionate harem stories. He really has no interest in purely textual content like reading books.

The discussion on "The Lord of the Rings" on Weibo is not normal, but overwhelming, which makes Yin Yingzhe really upset.

Simply turn off the Weibo client, and then enter the post bar to see what the veterans are talking about.

With the rise of various social software and the gradual departure of great gods, Tieba, a place with tens of millions of active users, has become more and more lifeless, looking like a strong man in his twilight years.

However, he couldn't help but roll his eyes when he entered the first recommended post on the Tieba client.

[What do you think Li Chungang's new book "The Lord of the Rings" will achieve in the world? 】

The recommended post from Diba has already received more than 30 replies, but Yin Yingzhe does not intend to join in the fun. What does it matter to you people how many copies other people's new books can sell? Isn't it delicious to play games and chase after this time?

"Can't be provoked, can't I hide?"

Yin Yingzhe felt that he might not be compatible with Li Chungang. He was just surfing the Internet once when he had nothing to do, "knowing all the world's affairs without leaving the house", but the screen was flooded with this name or content related to this name everywhere.

He didn't believe that he could meet this guy when he went to watch an anime.

It just so happens that today is Friday, which is the weekly update time for "Five-Equivalent Flower Marriage".

As a big member of a well-known video website starting with the second English letter, he can watch the episode that was just updated in advance, without having to wait until the next week.

He likes this story very much. The five heroines have their own strengths and weaknesses. Since they were caught by their classmate Amway in school, they have been chasing the first season, and now they are chasing the second season.

"It's finally updated, but the barrage seems a bit thin, so I should check it out later."

Seeing his favorite content being played on the computer screen, Yin Yingzhe inexplicably felt a sense of peace of mind.

—

After returning to China, Li Chungang stayed at home and rested for two days, doing nothing at home. The main thing was that he needed to overcome the jet lag and re-adapt to China.

"Old Ban~ Do I go to you or the director for this vacation?"

"Emmm... It is reasonable to say that the approver was signed by the director at the beginning, and the director should also be asked to sell the leave, but unfortunately, the director just happened to be assigned to study, and I haven't seen anyone this week."

"so……"

"So you should come to me to sell your vacation for you."

"Got it!"

He was able to take a vacation for more than half a month. It is estimated that Li Chungang is the only scorpion shit in the whole Tsinghua University.The many students who are struggling in the sea of ​​​​study can't wait to spend all their time on their studies. The top students are busy planning to take the IELTS and TOEFL exams and prepare to go abroad for further studies to continue their postgraduate entrance examinations and doctoral exams. The soil in which living things survive!

After returning to daily life in China, Li Chungang became very low-key. He stayed at school honestly from one to five days a week, obediently attending classes during the day, but the other students were really in class, and he brought his own notebook. The computer concentrates on its own "job".

At the beginning, the students in the class would curiously look around him from time to time during the recess, but they found that the documents on the computer screen were full of dense English words like ants marching, some simple words They can still understand it, but they can't understand some uncommon and professional-level ones.

Li Chungang's handwriting speed is already fast, and the content exists in memory, so often students have just read the beginning of the previous paragraph, and he has already completed the content of the next paragraph. You will find a sad fact——

Their reading speed is not as fast as others' writing speed!

At the beginning, the teacher in charge of the class was also curious and asked about the situation. When he learned that he was writing the next two parts of "The Lord of the Rings" and knew that it would be completed within a month, he subconsciously let him create in class. the behavior of.

Appearing in the classroom is a manifestation of respecting the teacher.

That being the case, the teachers in charge of the class have nothing to dissatisfy, so they open the door of convenience!

What's more, those who can be teachers in the School of Liberal Arts of Tsinghua University have either had the experience of publishing literary works, or once had the dream of wanting to publish literary works, but when they were young, they were completely incomparable with the current Li Chungang.

Seeing that Li Chungang's new work "The Lord of the Rings" is about to be released globally, these teachers can't help much in content creation, but they can give them a little convenience within the scope of their duties, so that they can create in class with peace of mind. What's wrong.

A week passed without knowing it.

The second part of "The Lord of the Rings" The Two Towers was also successfully completed on schedule, mainly because Li Chungang needed to complete the content of both Chinese and English versions at the same time. As for the next translation of the English version into other languages, it is Random House. The job of a professional translator is over, and what he can guarantee is to keep the Chinese and English versions as "authentic" as possible.

It's just that Lin Meng and his team, who originally expected to come back a few days after he returned to China, have no intention of returning to China until today, which Li Chungang did not expect.

But that's okay, since Lin Meng and the others are still in New York, he directly packaged and sent the completed Chinese and English versions of "The Lord of the Rings II: The Two Towers" to Lin Meng's work mailbox, and left a message on WeChat to remind him in time Hand it over to Random House as soon as it is received.

Chapter 542 Copyright Protection

Li Chungang: "The Chinese and English versions of the second part of "The Lord of the Rings II: The Two Towers" have been sent to your email address. After you receive it, remember to send it to Random House for review as soon as possible. I will continue to finish it after a day or two of rest. Everything that follows. /Silly smile/Silly smile/Silly smile"

Lin Meng: "I'm sorry! This time I'm negligent."

Li Chungang: "???"

Regarding the content of Lin Meng's reply, Li Chungang felt that the message he sent was not on the same channel at all. He just sent the email, why did he suddenly resign from his duty? Where did it go wrong.

"Dereliction of duty? What do you mean?"

"It's about the copyright registration of the book "The Lord of the Rings." Lin Meng took the initiative to explain, "The homework we did in advance is far from enough. I didn't expect that foreign literary copyrights also need to be registered, just like All kinds of scripts also need to be registered for copyright.

Originally, we had already booked our flight tickets three days ago and were ready to return home. As a result, Xiao Jiang suddenly informed us that "The Lord of the Rings" had not yet been copyright registered in the International Copyright Center, so we should hurry to make up for it.

Thanks to Xiao Jiang's timely notification, we have successfully registered the copyright of the name "Lord of the Rings"! "

Now it was Li Chungang's turn to be surprised!

Because he has never cared about this matter at all, or it may be because he has been influenced by the domestic Internet environment, and he has never heard of the term "copyright registration" when creating so many works in China, which caused this A fatal mistake.

Fortunately, this guy Jiang Qingyu reminded him in time, and with the "Random House" as a backing under the big tree, everyone mistakenly thought that they had completed the copyright of "Lord of the Rings" The registration caused Lin Meng and the others to find out that they hadn't been maliciously registered when they were in a hurry to prepare the materials and go to the Copyright Center to register the copyright.

I can't imagine how nervous and panicked Lin Meng and his team were when they came to the copyright center, let alone how lucky and moved they felt when they learned that the copyright hadn't been preempted. exaggerate.

Every time I think about it...

Lin Meng felt ashamed of her dereliction of duty, but at the same time felt happy for her luck this time.

It is not too late.

Eating a sting grows wisdom.

Lin Meng, who was lucky enough to escape, returned to the Hilton Hotel where they stayed, immediately called everyone in the team to her room, checked herself in front of everyone, and in the next second All the tickets that have been booked will be refunded without exception.

"Everyone give me a good study of all knowledge about copyright registration tonight, and it won't be too late for us to go 'home' after we are sure everything is safe!"

"it is good!"

"Mr. Lin, this time it was my negligence. As the head of the company's legal department, I thought I was familiar with the laws of the United States, but in the end I only missed this copyright law." After a long silence, Qin Jingtian took the initiative to take the blame for Lin Meng. In fact, as the legal person in charge of this trip to the United States, he was negligent in overseas copyright laws, which is really unreasonable.

Lin Meng lightly shook her head in relief: "There is no need to say who is responsible, as long as the next step is to check for omissions and make up for the vacancies!"

……

After listening to Lin Meng's account of the entire cause and effect of "dereliction of duty", Li Chungang also shouted luck. This is probably the so-called blind spot of thinking. He has never paid attention to this aspect of information in China, and it is also due to Huaguo's protection of personal copyrights. The measures are in place enough that he never worries about this aspect.
