Su Jing took red sandalwood roots, bamboo and stone pictures, and ambergris to the Wanbao Auction House with Shen Hong and others and signed a contract.
Nothing will happen to Su Jing after that. The disadvantage of sending it to the auction house is that the commission will be deducted. The advantage is that you don’t have to worry about anything. In order to get a bigger share, the auction house will naturally spare no effort to sell it at a good price, so Su Jing doesn’t need to worry about it. .
After returning home, Su Jing first sent a text message to Wu Min, and then sent the sperm whale photo to Wu Min's mailbox.
At Nature Magazine, Wu Min was sitting in the office. After receiving Su Jing's text message, he learned that Su Jing had sent photos, but he was not very interested. Although Su Jing's home is at the beach, the probability of photographing precious marine life is very low. Many people have lived by the sea all their lives, but have never seen many rare marine creatures. However, since Su Jing sent it, he still clicked on it on his computer to take a look.
Opening the photo album, Wu Min's originally calm eyes suddenly shrank.
Then, he quickly double-clicked the left button to enlarge a photo, took a look, then rubbed his eyes vigorously, and then looked at it for nearly ten seconds before he finally believed his eyes, and his body was shaking slightly with excitement.
This photo shows a sperm whale about to bite a squid. A layman might think this photo is ordinary, but Wu Min is deeply aware of how precious this photo is. Although the shooting technique is not very clever, as long as it is still clear, it is of great value. If you can take such a photo, it is amazing. Often the opportunity passes in a blink of an eye, and there is no time to consider too many shooting techniques.
"I'll choke you." A male colleague happened to walk by with a cup of coffee. He accidentally glanced at Wu Min's computer screen and spit out a sip of coffee.
"Aqiang, what's wrong with you?" growled a female colleague who had coffee sprayed on her desk and a few drops of coffee splashed on her body.
"That's right, why are you so nervous?" Wu Min quickly turned off the photo and said calmly.
"Wu Min, did I read that photo correctly? It couldn't have been photoshopped, right?" Aqiang couldn't believe it. How could a sperm whale be photographed hunting a giant squid in the deep sea? How could it appear on Wu Min's computer
"Guess." Wu Min was extremely excited at the moment and had no intention of paying attention to Aqiang. She took her laptop and hid in the toilet.
"Aqiang, what did you see on Wu Min's computer just now?" The female colleague who had just been sprayed with coffee noticed that Wu Min was a bit mysterious, and couldn't help but ask Aqiang with a look of curiosity.
"The scene of a sperm whale catching a squid." Aqiang said.
"Really?" The female colleague was surprised.
"Are you mistaken? Sperm whales prey on squid. Aren't they always in the deep sea? It's usually about 800 meters deep. Occasionally it's shallower, but it's at least 300 meters deep. How can it be so easy to photograph? On Wu Min's computer , it should just be a scene of a sperm whale biting a squid and floating to the surface, someone has published it a long time ago." said a male colleague sitting next door.
"That's really a photo of the capture process. The sperm whale was about to bite the squid, but it didn't bite it yet." Aqiang argued.
Colleagues expressed disbelief. As a photographer and editor of a nature magazine, I know a lot about many creatures, and I am no stranger to the famous sperm whale. We all know how rare it is to see a sperm whale catching a squid. They did not take this matter seriously and were busy with their own affairs.
In the toilet, Wu Min turned on the computer and continued to browse the photo album sent by Su Jing. He was shocked to find that this set of photos included the entire process of a sperm whale chasing, biting, and swallowing a squid. The pursuit of the squid seemed to span a long distance. I really don’t know. How did you catch up and follow and shoot
Wu Min called Su Jing and said excitedly: "Su Jing, where did you get these photos?"
Su Jing smiled: "Didn't I tell you that my home is at the beach and I took this photo while I was diving in the sea."
Wu Min gave Su Jing a thumbs up from the air. He could actually take a photo of a sperm whale feeding on a squid after diving into the water. This was incredible. How many photographers and researchers could not take a single photo despite all their efforts. Ah, he actually filmed the whole process.
Wu Min couldn't help but ask: "How deep did you dive to take the photo?"
Su Jing was afraid that there were loopholes in what she said, so she simply said: "I didn't pay attention to how deep I dived. Have you seen all those photos? Are they useful?"
Wu Min said excitedly: "It's very useful. It's so useful."
Su Jing smiled and said: "Then you can use it. The photographer will just sign it with your name, but you have to give me the money."
Wu Min said: "Of course the money is for you, but can it really be published under my name? Do you know that such photos may be collected by various newspapers, magazines, and collections, which means that the photographer can also become famous in one fell swoop. .”
Su Jing said: "I'm not a photographer, I don't care about this."
Wu Min was silent for a moment and said, "Then I'll thank you first and treat you to a big dinner another day."
Wu Min felt a little ashamed. Before that, she had looked down on Su Jing's photos. Now Su Jing has given the signature rights to the photos to herself. No matter how stupid she is, she knows that Su Jing is taking care of herself. The signature rights of these photos can be said to be It is of great significance and may be a turning point in his career.
After Wu Min talked to Su Jing on the phone, he took his computer and went directly to the editor's office except for the bathroom.
After a while, Wu Min and the editor-in-chief came out of the office together.
The editor-in-chief's face was full of surprise and he said, "I want to announce something to you. The theme and photos of the next issue of the marine life column have been selected. In addition, congratulations to Wu Min for officially becoming a full-time official from today. In the future, he will not have any secretarial work. Looking for him."
A female colleague asked: "Editor-in-Chief, what topic have you chosen?"
The editor smiled and said: "The hunting process of sperm whales."
The whole place was in an uproar, with disbelief on every face.
As the person who alarmed the entire Nature Magazine, Su Jing was leisurely feeding the pets at the moment. She should be able to earn ten million at this time. The pressure on her body was relieved a lot. In the future, she can do whatever she wants with the money she earns. .
"Chi Chi Chi"
Su Jing suddenly heard a cry and couldn't help but be stunned. The cry was not like the cry of any of her pets, and it was not converted into human speech, which meant that the blood was not dripped with the Ten Thousand Beasts Card. .
Su Jing looked around and saw a red fox standing in the corner. It must have been attracted by the meat of the monster. What surprised Su Jing was that there were three long scars on it. It looked like it was scratched by claws. Half of its body was stained red with blood. How did it get here with such serious injuries? You need to know the front yard. There are dogs in the backyard. When foreign creatures come in, they will definitely be caught by the dogs and taken to Su Jing.
Moreover, the fox's fur color looked very bright, and its eyes were very bright and smart. It was as if it had evolved after eating Warcraft meat, but Su Jing was sure that she had never fed such a red fox.
Su Jing stared at the red fox for a while, then thought about adopting it, and threw a small piece of Warcraft meat over. The other pets wanted to grab it, but Su Jing stopped them with her eyes. They all looked at it greedily, but they couldn't. Don't dare to move.
The red fox glanced at Su Jing warily, then walked up, sniffed the monster meat, bit a little bit, then grabbed a small piece of monster meat, turned around and ran away, quickly climbed over the wall of the gate and disappeared.
Su Jing was dumbfounded. This was the first time she saw an animal resist the temptation of monster meat and hold something in its mouth that it would not eat.
After Su Jing fed her pets, she cooked the monster meat for herself. After eating, she exercised her mental strength. She continued practicing until twelve o'clock in the evening before going to bed. At three or four o'clock in the morning, a long-lost loud noise woke Su Jing up. .
Su Jing's eyes suddenly opened, she slapped the bed board with her palm, jumped up, and ran quickly to the backyard.
