Rebirth As a Writer In Britain

Chapter 237: Sold the Swedish version

The Royal Poetry Publishing House accounted for most of the manuscript fees this time, so naturally they won't let themselves suffer. www.geiliwx.com At this time, President Geraf expressed his request as a representative.

"Thank you for your value on the Swedish market of "The Collection of All Beings". We decided after negotiation. His Swedish version must cost £2 million for a buyout." Jeraf said.

The £2 million buyout fee is considered a fairly satisfactory price, after all, Kevin now has the status of British Poet Laureate. This status has attracted a lot of sales. Therefore, after careful consideration, the Swedish Translation Publishing House decided to buy it.

"As for your request to buy out "The Collection of All Beings" for £2 million, we think it is acceptable. After all, "The Collection of All Beings" is indeed a very good collection of poems. So, if there are no other questions, I think we will tomorrow You can sign a contract. After the contract comes into effect, we will publish this work in Sweden." The other party said.

"Okay, let's wait and see." Geraf said happily.

Therefore, after a little bit of small talk, the two parties also bid farewell to each other. After all, the Swedish Translation Publishing House has to go back to prepare tomorrow's contract, and Kevin also followed Geraf and Louis back to the Royal Poetry Publishing House.

"Kevin, you are amazing. I didn't expect "The Collection of All Beings" to go out of the foreign market so easily." After returning to the Royal Poetry Publishing House, Louis said to Kevin.

This work contains all the representative poetry works of the great British writers on the earth. The comprehensiveness of its market has long been expected by Kevin. Therefore, Kevin is just happy, not too surprised. Only this time, although they sold 2 million pounds, according to their share contract. Kevin didn't get much.

Kevin also learned from this matter. When signing a new book with a publisher in the future, the manuscript fee for foreign copyrights must be divided into 50-50. otherwise. That is simply too sorry for myself, sorry for these classics on earth.

"Okay. Louis. You've spoken types of compliments to me countless times. Maybe we don't need to be so polite between us."

"Haha, is it? My goodness, your talent makes me not stingy with any compliments." Louis said with a smile.

The signed version of the 1,000 copies has not yet been fully completed, so Kevin plans to use the little time left today to sign a few more copies. After drinking a few sips of tea with Louis and chatting for a while, he went to the room and signed it seriously.

It wasn't until 6 o'clock in the evening that Kevin walked out of the Royal Poetry Press. Louis was moved by Kevin's dedication, so he stayed in the lobby and waited for him. By the way, he invited him to dinner.

Kevin has been busy for a long time, and after coming back to take a shower, he intends to go out to London's night market and take a break. After all, after writing the book, he left more for himself to interact with readers on Twitter and participate in this or that banquet.

Kevin walked slowly to the Prince's Square outside the Prince Hotel. The squares in the UK are different from the squares in China. Although it is very lively at night, it is rare to see the aunt's square dance and the like. Relatively speaking, there is a lot less garbage. The ground also appears relatively clean.

"Hi! Mr. Kevin, what a coincidence, I met you here." At this time, a palm was slapped on Kevin's shoulder.

Kevin heard the voice and turned and looked at it. I found it was the old man who came to London this afternoon to look for his Swedish Translation Publishing House. The old man's name is Latis. Therefore, Kevin respectfully calls him Mr. Latis.

"It turned out to be Mr. Latis, I'm glad to see you here. This is really a beautiful accident." Kevin said with a smile.

"Haha, Mr. Kevin is so talented in speaking. Oh, since we met here, if you don't mind, sit down and have a supper together." Latis said.

It is not the first time Latis has come to London. He came to London for further studies when he was young. So for London, he still has some vague memories. This time I took advantage of the opportunity of a business trip. He came to the Prince's Square to have supper alone, and recalled some of the memories of studying here.

"Of course. My stomach just happened to be a little hungry. So, as the host, I will invite you to taste the British food." Kevin said sincerely.

"Excellent. Thank you for the invitation of the host." Latis said happily.

So the two sat down in a late-night snack stall near Prince's Square. Latis has read Kevin’s Collection of All Beings several times. As a publisher, he certainly knows the perfection of this collection of poems. So, he likes this work so much. Because of his love, he decided to bring it to the Swedish market this time.

Latis has always been curious about how rich his inner thoughts should be for someone who can write such excellent poems as "The Collection of All Beings". So, taking this opportunity, he also plans to have a good chat with Kevin.

"Mr. Kevin, I'm full of curiosity about you. Can you tell me that you have been in contact with poetry since childhood, and have been writing poetry since childhood?" After each ordering food, Latis turned his curiosity into questions directly To Kevin.

"No, no, no, respectable Mr. Latis~www.NovelMTL.com~ If I tell you that I have been writing poetry for less than a year, would you believe it?" Kevin immediately shook his head and said.

"What, less than half a year of writing poetry? Naturally, I won't believe it. After all, your "Collection of All Beings" is so excellent, without a certain accumulation of talents. You can't write it." Latis said immediately.

"But that's true, dear Mr. Latis, I don't want to lie to you. I did write poetry for less than a year. Of course, poetry has long been in my mind, even if I don't write poetry, but I always They all have a poetic heart. This is why I write faster than ordinary people."

Kevin once again stated his "poetic heart" theory. When talking to David Lee last time, he mentioned this theory many times. This time, he also intends to use this "poetic heart" theory to fool the past.

This theory can amaze the famous poetry critic David Lidu, and Latis, as a publisher, naturally does the same. When he heard Kevin's theory of "poetic heart", he already deeply felt the difference of this young poet laureate. (To be continued)
