"Huh? Did the Human Guide magazine change its layout? It looks quite attractive!"
"Well, to be honest, it's just a change of name, nothing has changed in terms of content, that's not... okay, is this a serialized novel? A science fiction novel? What the hell is 'The Three-Body Problem'?"
"I have to say, this 'Three-Body Problem' seems to be very good at first glance. It explores the future and the universe. This author is amazing!"
"Not bad, not bad, this Three-Body Problem is really well written, it's so good to read, it's so well written!"
"Give me the latest issue of the Human Guide magazine, the one that published the science fiction serial 'The Three-Body Problem'..."
"Give me a copy too! Oh my god, it was so hard to get one. I ran three blocks to get one!"
"No, the author's name is... Kafe Zui Cha. His sci-fi novel 'The Three-Body Problem' is so good. It's so explosive!"
"..."
With the latest issue of "Human Guide" magazine on sale.
In a short time, they were sold out in the streets and alleys.
Many book stall and newsstand owners called the Human Guide magazine to request more print runs.
Editors including Ge Ling and Li Dongbao were dumbfounded and stunned.
"Wuhu! Wow, it turns out that a high-quality author can support a magazine company. Mayor Qi's debut work "The Three-Body Problem" was so explosive that it became a masterpiece and a hit!"
Li Dongbao was amazed.
With a joyful smile on her face, Ge Ling raised her hand and snapped her fingers, then spoke to the other editors.
"Everyone, everyone, since there is market demand, why are we hesitating? Let's go full steam ahead and print more!"
The other editors also expressed their admiration for Ge Ling.
"Ge Ling, you still have a way. This time, you saved our Human Guide magazine!"
"Hey, Lao Yu, can we make some room? Let our editor-in-chief Ge Ling move into the editor-in-chief's office?"
"That's right, Ge Ling deserves to be the editor-in-chief. This is real strength. I'm convinced!"
"..."
of course.
As she wished, Ge Ling was promoted to the position of editor-in-chief by other editors.
Ge Ling immediately contacted Qi Tongwei and informed him of the news that his science fiction novel "The Three-Body Problem" was on sale and was a huge hit.
"dududu~"
She dialed Qi Tongwei's number.
Not long after.
Qi Tongwei answered the phone, "Hello, this is the beautiful editor Ge! What can I do for you?"
Ge Ling laughed, "Mayor Qi, come on!"
"I am just an ordinary citizen. How dare I give instructions to you, the mayor and major general?"
"Well, of course, he is currently a powerful writer who has become popular with his book 'Guide to the World'!"
Qi Tongwei smiled slightly, "Miss Ge, what you said is..."
Ge Ling didn't keep the suspense but spoke frankly.
"It's like this. We have already published the first issue of your science fiction novel 'The Three-Body Problem'. The market feedback is very good. It has been sold out completely!"
"We are now working intensively to continue printing more copies. According to the current feedback, we estimate that we will need to double the usual number of copies!"
"Master writer Qi, this time it's all thanks to you. You've brought our Human Guide magazine back to life."
Qi Tongwei smiled in relief, "No, no~"
"It's a win-win cooperation. I should thank you and the Human Guide magazine for taking me in."
Ge Ling still had deep admiration for Qi Tongwei's humility.
"Mayor Qi, don't be so modest. Really, if it weren't for your debut novel, 'The Three-Body Problem', which became a hit in the market, our magazine would have been facing closure!"
"Anyway, congratulations, your book is going to be a hit."
"Trust me, I guarantee your royalties and will give you a surprise~"
Qi Tongwei was not surprised by either praise or criticism, or perhaps he had already realized it in his expectations.
Such a masterpiece, even if it is plagiarized and serialized in a magazine in advance, will definitely explode the market.
It will inevitably bring economic benefits to Qi Tongwei.
All this happening was nothing more than the result of Qi Tongwei's long-awaited idea.
So, it can be said that I am neither sad nor happy...
"Thank you, Miss Ge!"
“I hope that in the days ahead, we can have a pleasant cooperation, help my book sell well, and help the magazine grow and develop!”
Ge Ling agreed, "Okay, Mayor Qi, thank you for your trust and support for our magazine. We will continue to cooperate!"
"it is good!"
hang up the phone.
Qi Tongwei let out a long sigh and a knowing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
at this time.
Zhong Xiaoai, who was looking after four babies, looked at Qi Tongwei.
"Husband, what's wrong?"
Zhong Xiaoai asked curiously.
"What else... Miss Ge? You are so sly and happy, tell the truth!"
Qi Tongwei laughed heartily, "Wife, it's done!"
Zhong Xiaoai was confused, "Uh, what happened?"
Qi Tongwei walked up, held Zhong Xiaoai's hand tightly, and said with some excitement.
"As I told you before, I wrote the science fiction novel 'The Three-Body Problem' and submitted it to the 'Human Guide' magazine."
"The person who called me just now was Ge Ling, the editor of the magazine."
"She said my novel was a big hit. It was serialized in the first issue of the magazine and it sold like hot cakes!"
"Who knows, the royalties could be a huge sum of money!"
When Zhong Xiaoai heard this, her face was filled with surprise.
"Huh? Really?"
"Wow, man, that's great!"
Qi Tongwei grinned wickedly.
“That has to be awesome!”
"If it's not great, how can we have four babies in one pregnancy after a night of partying?"
Zhong Xiaoai punched Qi Tongwei several times with her fists, "Hateful!"
"You big bad husband, what are you thinking about!"
Qi Tongwei moved closer to Zhong Xiaoai, hugged her in his arms, and kissed her forehead deeply.
"Wife, isn't it?"
"Oh, I'm still in confinement after giving birth. You have to hold it in and wait a little longer!" Zhong Xiaoai said shyly.
Qi Tongwei pursed his lips and said, "That's right!"
"When you have recovered your strength and gradually recovered, hehe, you have to compensate me!"
Zhong Xiaoai rolled her eyes. "Pah, ah, ah, how do you compensate me?"
Qi Tongwei said, "Ugh," "Think about it, you've been pregnant for so many months, and we've been... a lot slower."
"Even though it burned a little before, it didn't quench my thirst and it wasn't satisfying!"
"Hehe, after you recover your energy from giving birth, we're going to continue partying all night, all night long... Shisanlang!"
Zhong Xiaoai couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"My stinky husband, you are just being mean and bullying me!"
"At present, I have been discharged from the hospital for a while and I am at home to recuperate after giving birth. You don't have to stay at home!"
"Let's go to Lincheng City!"
"As the mayor, you have been back for so long. Hundreds of thousands of people in Lincheng are still waiting for you to take charge of the overall situation and develop the economy!"
Qi Tongwei thought about it and said, "That's right!"
"Wife, I'll go back to Lincheng first, and then I'll go back to Jingzhou on the weekend to see you and the babies!"
Zhong Xiaoai nodded. "At present, you have just arrived in Lincheng City, so you should focus on your work."
"Wait until the baby is a few months old, and then we can move to Lincheng City. How about that?"
Qi Tongwei thought for a moment and said, "Okay, given the current situation, if we want to develop Lincheng, it may not be done in a short period of time."
"It's fine for you to take the babies to Lincheng. Our family lives in Lincheng."
"Once Lincheng is developed, we will consider moving to Jingzhou..."
Zhong Xiaoai nodded, "Yes, after all, you still have to get promoted. It's impossible for you to be the mayor of Lincheng City all your life."
Qi Tongwei thought to himself, I, Qi Tongwei, must "join the ministry"!
