Chapter 32: Los Angeles and New York
According to Dave, his "Song of Ice and Fire" basically does not have to worry about a decline in sales for a long time to come.
Because the credibility of the list is very high, many readers who want to buy books also like to buy some novels based on the books listed on the list and read them home.
in disguised form, it can be regarded as an advertisement for the author.
In addition, the conditions for entering the list are extremely harsh, and the censorship is also very strict. Therefore, the content and stories of the novels on the list can be guaranteed to be wonderful, and readers do not have to worry about being fooled.
So the influence of this list is very large, and it also has credibility, at least in the United States.
After Dave told Kim Hyun-tae about this, there was nothing else. Kim Hyun-tae therefore left Dave’s office and took her daughter back to Laura. After taking her daughter to the parking lot and picking up his car, Kim Hyun-tae drove away from the publishing house.
As usual, the little guy sits in his "eggshell" baby carrier, looks curiously at the pedestrians and shops on the street through the car window, and makes strange sounds of "Wow! Wow!" from time to time to express that he sees'very Amazing' scene.
Kim Hyun-tae was in a good mood at this time. Both "William's Fairy Tales" and "Lord of the Rings" were handed over to the publishing house. In a short period of time, they could be sold as books to bring their own income. At the same time, the current "Song of Ice and Fire" also entered The best-selling list, which brings sales guarantee for a period of time in the future.
So, how could Kim Hyun Tae be unhappy.
More importantly, his own copyright share has increased to 20%. As long as the sales of "Lord of the Rings" and "William's Fairy Tales" are not worse than "Song of Ice and Fire", it means that the money I can get can far exceed "Bing and Fire". The benefits of "Song of Fire".
Thinking about it, Kim Hyun-tae couldn't help but laughed out ‘hehe’, causing the little guy sitting behind to look curiously at his father.
Seeing her daughter looking curiously in the rearview mirror, Kim Hyun-tae held back a smile, then turned on the car CD and played pure music for her daughter, diverting her attention.
At this time, it was almost noon, and there was not a lot of traffic on the highway from Los Angeles to Monica, far from what it was like in the morning.
Therefore, Kim Hyun-tae drove up very quickly on this road. After 20 minutes, he entered the Santa Monica City area. Then Kim Hyun-tae drove off the highway and onto the fork road leading to the beach community.
When passing through this time and space, when the nation’s largest supermarket chain [Geer], Kim Hyun-tae took his daughter to the supermarket to buy some food and things for Halloween, then he continued to drive home.
With a car, it’s different. Kim Hyun-tae can buy a lot of things at once, and he doesn’t have to think about buying a little bit every time.
Of course, this has something to do with Kim Hyun Tae’s economic improvement.
At the supermarket, Kim Hyun-tae bought a few boxes of high-end steaks, some seasonings, fruits and vegetables, skimmed milk and other foods. He also bought pumpkin lanterns, scarecrows, vampire masks, Halloween costumes for children and adults, and dozens of Pack of sweets.
Parked the car at his door, Kim Hyun-tae got out of the car and took his daughter out of the car. Then he opened the door and put her daughter in the living room. Then, he started to move everything from the trunk of the car into the house.
My daughter is very well-behaved, sitting quietly in her ‘Dan’er’ baby carrier, watching her father go in and out busy.
After everything was settled, Kim Hyun-tae liberated his daughter from the "egg shell" and let the little guy play by himself.
After went down, the little guy crawled all the way to the wall, then used his little hand to support the wall and stood up little by little, and then started to walk towards the backyard.
In the past two months, the little guy has developed very fast, his teeth have grown a lot, and he has started to walk.
Although the road is not stable, the little guy is holding on to some borrowed things, and there is no problem walking by himself.
Jin Xiantai took a look and knew that his daughter wanted to go to the back garden to play.
After all, where is the back garden, the little guy can hold on to the small wooden door of the garden and push those people who pass by the garden door. This is what the little guy likes to do most.
After all, she is not afraid of life at all. She likes to tease anyone, as if they are familiar with her.
Kim Hyun Tae put all the food he bought in the refrigerator, leaving behind a roll of cornmeal for children aged 1 to 2, and a box of steaks to be cooked for himself and his daughter at noon, and he walked to his daughter's side.
Kim Hyun Tae didn't pick up his daughter, because he knew that at this time, the little guy would have to practice walking by himself, so he just opened the door to the back garden and ignored it.
Anyway, there are no edges and corners, so don't worry about her daughter bumping into something. Besides, although Jin Xiantai spoils her daughter, he won't raise her too much.
Seeing his father opened the door, the little guy was obviously very happy.
"Babaao!"
Well, this is what my father meant, and Kim Hyun-tae understands it.
Although my daughter can simply express her meaning now, sometimes she can speak very clearly, but sometimes she is not so clear.
Therefore, it is necessary for Kim Hyun-tae, who is the father, to work **** the expression of his daughter.
"Oh, it's good for Dad to open the door for you, what if you don't open the door?"
Jin Xiantai teased the little guy.
The little guy with his head tilted thought for a while, and then responded to his father.
"Bad!", the word is very clear.
Okay, what else can Kim Hyun Tae say.
I checked the time and it was 5 past 11 o'clock. It was obviously a little early to make lunch at this time, so Jin Xiantai picked up the laptop from the living room and accompanied his daughter to the backyard. Her daughter went to the small wooden door in the garden as usual. Looking out of the wooden door, there is no one passing by to make her poke.
It’s just that the little guy chose the wrong time. There are very few people on the beach at this time. Basically everyone goes to work and goes to school, so the little guy can’t see a few people.
Finally, the little guy had to give up this hobby and interest, and staggered to the other side of the garden, picked up the toys placed there and played with it.
In the entire backyard, besides stacking a large number of children's toys bought by Jin Xiantai, he even placed a large plastic slide for his daughter's entertainment.
I have to say that Kim Hyun-tae, who has money, is really good for her daughter.
While Jin Xiantai himself held the laptop, walked to the recliner under the porch of the backyard and lay on it, enjoying the warm sea breeze under the shady porch. It was a pleasant time.
Kim Hyun Tae turned on the computer and started to get online.
Linked to the Internet, opened the web page, and entered the words [National Novel Sales Ranking], and searched for the web page he needed.
Click, open the link, and find the ranking list for 2015. After a closer look, Kim Hyun-tae found that his novel ranks really low.
This issue of the list lists a total of 200 best-selling novels, and his own "A Song of Ice and Fire" ranks 198th, which is basically the bottom.
But think about what Dave said, his novel has only been sold for less than two months, and it has been on the list, so this is also a good result, isn't it?
Indeed, Jin Xiantai’s royalty share has only been taken for one month. This month’s sales will not be settled until the end of the month, and then he will receive the second month’s royalty share.
Even so, in less than two months, his "A Song of Ice and Fire" entered the 2015 bestseller list. What is his dissatisfaction.
If this momentum is maintained, and his "A Song of Ice and Fire" will be on the bestseller list again next year, it will definitely not be in this position.
closed the webpage, Kim Hyun-tae opened a video website, selected a few funny videos and looked at it with joy.
Looking at a few strange and funny selfies from Texas in the video, Jin Xiantai couldn't help but curl up, and at the same time he admired a few fat Texas guys who are so good at playing.
Now, Kim Hyun Tae's life has begun to stabilize, and economic conditions have also greatly improved. Basically, he and his daughter are on the right track.
As long as he doesn't kill himself, this kind of stable and peaceful leisure life has been maintained like this, there is nothing wrong.
Relative to the leisurely and peaceful life of Kim Hyun Tae and his daughter, who are beginning to prosper, a certain woman's life is beginning to become difficult.

vomit!
In the luxurious bathroom, Annie's face is pale and she keeps retching. Her life is not easy these days.
Manually given in July? Jing, it has been more than three months now, so now she has begun to have pregnancy reactions.
The old butler Nord stood aside, with a concerned look on his face, a maid possessed and raised her hand and gently patted Anne's back, hoping to relieve her pain.
"Do women have to go through such a painful cycle during pregnancy? I regret it now~www.wuxiaspot.com~ After the vomiting gradually disappeared, Annie finally recovered some of her energy. At this time, she was supported by the maid. He stood up, and then bitterly expressed his feelings to the old butler Nord.
Regarding what Annie said, Nord of course knew that this could not be taken seriously.
The state of pregnancy for more than three months, although regret can be resolved, but Annie did not show this meaning at all, indicating that she is just talking about it casually, once she can't take it seriously.
It's just that Annie was so tortured by her pregnancy reaction, that's why she said that.
"Miss, your pregnancy reaction is more severe than that of ordinary people, but this is also normal. Some women's physiques will have such a situation when they are pregnant, and some women may not even react at all."
When the old bachelor of Nord didn't know how to answer the young lady's words, the maid who helped Annie relieved him.
This maid is a person who has given birth to children, so she is more experienced in this area.
Annie looked at the maid after hearing the words, and then asked in an uncertain tone: "Is this true?" Then she said with an envious look: "I really envy those who don't respond during pregnancy."
The maid looked at Annie with a smile and nodded: "Of course it is true. I am the mother of three children, so I know quite well about this."
Wow!
The experience of the mother of three children is of course not comparable to that of Annie.
"So did you have a big reaction during pregnancy?" Annie asked curiously~www.wuxiaspot.com~Book friends are welcome to visit and read. The latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all at ~www.wuxiaspot. com~ mobile phone users please go to read.
