After the papers were approved, the two-and-a-half-month summer vacation in the kindergarten began.
The little dragon cubs in the first grade have gone home for vacation, but the little dragon cubs in the second grade are still in the nursery.
The summer vacation is very long, but there are no special festivals during the period. The little dragon cubs are on vacation, that is, they go home and stay. They don’t need to go out to visit relatives and friends like the Dragon God Festival.
Rhine's father, Lance, may stay in Mercury to work in the future because of his employer, and Rhine also goes to the nursery during the holidays.
Lu Yuan's parents bought a small apartment near the kindergarten. Lu Yuan stayed in the residential area next to the kindergarten during the summer vacation this year, but Lu Yuan's parents would only come here every Saturday and Sunday, so during the holiday The little fat man eats, sleeps, and is still in the nursery.
Therefore, although the nursery school is closed, there are still two little dragon cubs who have been on vacation and run to the nursery every day.
Xingfei's diary has been corrected and reviewed, the declaration form has been approved, and the book number is matched, and he is waiting for the illustration.
Because the illustrations were rushed, Yan Tan stayed at the Imperial City Star to catch up with the paintings first. During the training camp, he also drew a lot of pictures of the nursery school, most of which were not sent out in time, and several of them actually matched the scenes in the diary. He painted five pictures in a hurry, and took time to color-block to make a cover.
Some half-page illustrations are provided by the art team.
Hai Wei's team completed the review overnight, and sent it to the agreed printing factory to print out the sample book. Hai Wei was very satisfied and asked the printing factory to continue printing, and by the way, sent a few copies to the nursery school.
When Shen Mian got the physical book, he immediately brought it to the little dragon cubs.
Before the correction of the whole book, Xingfei filled in a few short stories by himself, and filled in a small poem at the beginning. Although the book is not thick, it has a good texture.
When Xingfei got the book, the little dragon cubs all gathered around, and Lu Yuan exclaimed, "It's so beautiful."
The cover of the sample book is blue-pink, the blue is the sky, the pink is the sea, the color saturation is low, and a large number of two-color bubbles are depicted at the collision of the colors, which is very dreamy.
The title of the book is "A Handful of Miscellaneous Things," and the rounded font is lounging on the cover.
On the cover, Yan Tan pondered the illustration for ten minutes, and then spent five minutes painting it in contrasting colors, but the fonts were professional fonts.
Opening the cover, a small poem titled "Hot Snow" is written on the inner page of the print. Turning further inside, the main text of the catalogue, a total of eight full-page illustrations and six half-page illustrations, are exquisite and weighty.
Qin Yi dozed off holding Xing Fei's big tail, and when he heard the little dragon cub speak, he opened his eyes and looked at the book in Xing Fei's hand.
Shen Mian took the water cup He Xing brought and drank some water.
He Xing picked up one: "Has the sample book come out?"
Shen Mian: "Come out, I'll give you eight books for child care."
He Xing sat next to Shen Mian: "I remember that this book has been tested in Wenxing's "Mysterious Garden" for five articles, and the editor there said that the response was very good, and this magazine will have Xingfei's column. Will it officially go on sale this week?"
"Mysterious Garden" is a youth periodical magazine for dragons between the ages of ten and sixteen. It can be said that it is the most classic and most famous and selling periodical in the hands of Wenxing Publishing House. It has always been in charge of Hai Wei.
"A Handful of Miscellaneous Things" first appeared in each issue of "Mysterious Garden". A total of five trial reading diaries were released, which caused a lot of discussion. The editorial department also received a lot of feedback, and even some readers deliberately entered the "Mysterious Garden" for this diary, urging the editorial department to quickly publish the entire "A Handful of Miscellaneous Things".
The first edition of Wenxing Magazine plans to print 500,000 copies. Although the physical book industry in the empire is not bad, it is difficult for physical books to reach the hundreds of millions of clicks and subscriptions for e-books in the current technologically developed world.
Shen Mian nodded: "Yes."
Xingfei loved his first book, but couldn't help but care about Yantan: "The physical book has been printed, when will Brother Yantan and Brother Livia come over?"
Shen Mian received a message from Yantan in the morning: "I will be here this afternoon, tell us not to pick it up, but to give us a surprise."
Rhine tilted his head, and the little dragon cub thought that Yantan was surprised that Livia was coming: "But we all know that Livia is coming, will we pretend to be surprised by Livia?"
Neither Rhine nor Lu Yuan had contact with Li Weiya in real life, but they had spoken to Li Weiya several times and knew that he was a scholar like Ji An Xingfei.
The two scumbags huddled together silently. In this final exam, although the two little dragon cubs have made progress, the other little dragon cubs are also making progress.
The difference is huge.
Jie'an was peeling the nuts, "It shouldn't be, Yantan said that Livia was coming. Maybe he prepared other surprises. Let's prepare some gifts for Yantan."
Shen Mian looked at Zhinao: "They'll be there in two hours, and we'll know when the time comes. I'm going to prepare afternoon tea, and they're here just in time to eat something."
He Xing tried to stick with the dean into the kitchen, but was dragged by the little dragon cubs.
He Xing: "???"
Jie'an was smashing nuts, and his tail flicked: "Uncle, come and help us smash nuts. We're going to bake a big nut cake for Yantan."
He Xing: "… "
Shen Mian thought that Yantan's surprise was an inspiration from the training camp, or an oversized painting. At four o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Mian received the doorbell of the nursery school and looked at the oversized surprise.
His Royal Highness wearing a mask hugged Livia and waved at Shenmian: "Good afternoon, Xiaomianmian."
Li Weiya has been loved and loved all the way. Facing Dean Shen's slightly shocked expression, he slowly lowered his head.
His Majesty the Emperor had Yantan hanging on his body. The heartless little black dragon cub's eyes fell directly on Shen Mian. When he saw Dean Shen, he spread his wings and flew straight towards him. The wind that blew up messed up His Majesty's hair on the top of his head. .
His Majesty the Emperor stood there calmly and nodded to President Shen.
He Xing: "… "
He Dalong grabbed the little black dragon who flew over: "Do you call this a surprise?"
The little black dragon wagged his tail: "Yeah!"
…
Due to Shen Mian and He Xing's love for Xingfei, they did not promote it on readers or Maoyan platforms. As for the normal publicity of "A Handful of Miscellaneous Things" by the publishing house, they chose to acquiesce.
What the book can bring in the end depends on the quality of the content, influenced by the publisher's publicity.
Shen Mian and He Xing published books for Xingfei, including Xingfei himself, just to leave a memory for themselves, not to sell how many books to make money.
For this matter, the little girl deliberately asked Shen Mian and He Xing to whisper a few days before the pre-sale.
Xing Fei nestled in Shen Mian's arms. She held the sample booklet of "A Handful of Miscellaneous Things" and whispered, "President, you shouldn't promote "A Handful of Miscellaneous Things" during the pre-sale period, okay?"
Shen Mian didn't want to push the little dragon cub to the public because of himself: "Of course, if you like, I can say nothing. But this way, the number of this book may be very small at the beginning."
There are countless examples of an author who earns a book bonus for a lifetime. They have earned both fame and enough money to enjoy a lifetime by relying on their famous works. Although Xingfei is young, she may not know exactly what this book will bring her.
Whether the external environment will break through the small environment created by Shen Mian, and then affect Xingfei, this is not something that Shen Mian can eliminate if he wants to.
For a precocious little girl like Xing Fei, it is more beneficial for her to be frank and clear about all the situation than to hide those praises and even compliments.
Xingfei touched the cover of the sample book: "I don't care. I just want to share my story, as the dean said, maybe after a long time, no dragon remembers me, but occasionally I remember that I have seen a very interesting story. Interesting story. I hope this book will enter the dragon cub's heart with its own content."
"It's an excellent book," Shen Mian lowered her head and kissed the top of the little girl's hair, and said softly, "I'm also honored to be mentioned because of my little dragon cub."
When I can stand behind you, it is the proudest moment of a dean.
On the 27th of this month, "A Handful of Miscellaneous Things" began pre-sale.
