Lisko’s American Life

Chapter 70: New book "The Little Prince"

With the surprise of being recognized by his mentor, Li Ke lay on the bed after a long absence, and fell asleep with the familiar fragrance on the quilt.

Lisko brought his laptop with him when he came out. During the few days at his tutor's house, he also calmed down and slowly finished the rest of the book "The Little Prince". Of course, he still showed it to his tutor as soon as possible. .

Bermaner is used to printing out manuscripts on manuscript paper, but he feels that there is no texture on electronic devices. Lisko has been studying with him for so long, and he must have known this quirk. He also printed it on a printer and gave it to him.

The full text of "The Little Prince" has 295,000 words, and the print is also a thick stack. Berman is quietly savoring in the study with golden eyes, and Lisko is sitting on the side waiting for his evaluation.

"I always thought I was rich and had a unique flower in the world; in fact, what I had was just an ordinary rose. An ordinary rose..."

"If it were me, if I had fifty-three minutes to use freely, then I would leisurely walk towards a clear spring."

"Old houses, stars and deserts—something invisible gives them beauty..."

Bermaner was flipping through the pages, and from time to time he saw some sentences that made him very surprised.

Bermaner also thinks Lisko's book is very good. He likes Lisko's ideas very much. The book "Wheat Field" has made him famous among students. This book is aimed at the category of children. No parent will refuse to do so. A book that teaches children to yearn for truth, goodness and beauty.

He put down the manuscript in his hand and looked at some of the young and excessive disciples in front of him. Jealousy would really spring up in his heart.

"Okay, very good." Berman calmed down and unabashedly expressed his amazement.

Lisko's book reveals acerbic satire and criticism of some ugly social phenomena. Berman also has some concerns about whether it will be reflected on politicians, but he is quickly relieved that there is any sin in literati writing, and he can still block it.

Childhood is an era of longing for miracles, pursuing warmth, and full of dreams. In contrast, adults are lifeless, **** for power, and superficial in vanity. "Adults should follow the example of children." Lisko chooses a child's perspective to see the world, and uses the child's innocence, curiosity, and desire to know more about the world to tell stories to adults, especially to those adults who are "innocent", let them borrow The imagination of the little prince temporarily forgets the desires that belong to the adult world, flies back to childhood, reflects on real life, and discovers the true meaning of life.

After reading it, Berman is really full of praise. This book may not win an award, but it is definitely a book that can make it into the top five best-selling books.

patted Lisko on the shoulder,

"You are beyond my expectations."

The tender moment passed, Lisko said goodbye to the reluctant Mary and everyone, and made a promise to "will definitely come back in the future". Lisko left the castle under everyone's attention.

Back at the hotel, Lisko quickly contacted his agent. Lu Bo kept calling him for the past few days. Lisko knew that his tutor didn't like seeing these literary agents very much. Knowing that it is unavoidable for an agent to take care of chores in today's society, I still don't like seeing these people, so I have to arrange for Lubo to wait for him to return to the hotel to discuss.

"Hey, Lubo."

"Li, I've been waiting for you for several days, are you in the hotel now?" Lu Bo's tone was eager.

"Yes, I just came back," Lisko shrugged embarrassedly. The original plan was to come back in two days, but he couldn't stand Mary's strong retention, so he had to stay for a few more days, and Lubo also waited for a long time.

I told him the room number, and soon I heard a knock on the door.

Lisko got up and opened the door, "Lubo."

He reached out and patted Lubo's belly.

"Finally see you," Lu Bo's tone was full of resentment. He originally negotiated a copyright contract in the UK. He heard that Lisko finally came out of the ranch and hurried back. Unexpectedly, he still waited here for several days. .

As for rushing into the manor to meet, Lu Bo thought about Bermaner's unkind look, and his heart sank.

"How's the copyright transaction going?" Lisko watched him sit on the sofa with difficulty. Lubo has been getting fatter and fatter in recent years, and the hardcover and customized shirts can't restrain his growing belly.

"Very good, Li, your works are still very popular in the copyright market. The main reason is that your works are excellent. I never go to clients, but a lot of clients come looking for us."

Lu Bo took a sip of water with some pride in his tone.

Then he explained to Lisko the latest company news.

"We have received news that many institutions have submitted the book "Wheat Field" to Sweden, and the specific results of UU Reading www.uukanshu.com can only be waited for. After all, we cannot reach this award. The awards have been swept away by us, and our company has specially ordered a few trophy racks."

Lisko usually doesn't like to collect these trophies, so they were taken by Lu Bo and placed at the entrance of the company. Everyone who enters the company will be attracted by the rows of trophies.

Lubaugh also often brings rookie writers who have just signed to visit here.

"Here is the honor that our company's shareholder Lisko, the writer, has won for three books. You will also succeed in the future."

Live like a success master.

Lisko flipped through the report. After the book "Wheat Field" was listed as a recommended reading book for middle school students in the United States, some stagnant sales began to soar again. Publishers in other English-speaking countries have also received good news. The current book is also listed below the document. All earnings.

"The total sales share is 170 million, and the copyright income is 90 million."

Lisko is still very satisfied with the result. This time his income has increased a lot compared to the previous two books. After all, Lisko's popularity has been increasing.

After returning the document, Lisko still recognized Lu Bo's work.

"This is my latest book, which looks at the world from a child's point of view, and you can show it to Langdon and talk about the increased share."

As soon as Lu Bo heard the new book, he immediately showed a speed that was not in line with his body. He bounced off the sofa, and as a result, he flipped through the printed manuscript a few times.

Lu Bo read it carefully for a while. Although he is not a literary connoisseur, he has been an agent all year round and has his own taste. After reading it, Lu Bo knew that this book would definitely be better than all Lisko's books. A big sell, because this time the target is kids.
