Chapter 3 The deal between Cui Geng and the neighbor
"A novelist?"
Cui Geng was a little surprised, and then suddenly realized: "I understand, no wonder you all work at night. I heard that writing novels requires inspiration, and usually there will be more inspiration at night, right?"
"right."
Su Xi nodded.
She didn't say anything. Many online writers typing all night may not be because they are more inspiring at night, but may also be...procrastination.
During the day, I read novels, watch TV shows, shop online, and play games. I feel it's too late at night, so I quickly write and treat the hungry readers.
Of course, Su Xi is definitely not such a person. It’s just because she can’t write it out.
"fine."
Cui Geng nodded: "I am quite interested in the novel author industry. I do not need to check in to work, nor do I have to compete in the workplace, and there is no competition in the workplace, infighting, etc. If I graduate from college and look for a job, I may choose to have a freelancer."
He is a person who likes freedom.
“In fact, freelancing is not as good as you think.”
Su Xi shook her head and said seriously: "Free career seems very free and you can arrange your time at will, but in many cases, you will often be busier than a normal career, more stressful, and have high self-control requirements. If you are interested in freelancing, it is recommended that you consider it carefully and not make decisions impulsively."
This is the experience of those who have experienced it.
"That's what I'm going to do now. What I need to do is to study hard and prepare for the college entrance examination."
Cui Geng smiled.
Su Xi was stunned and nodded subconsciously.
Yes, now, study is the most important thing for others. Topics such as work and career are still too far away from the other party.
“By the way.”
Cui Geng suddenly thought of something, hesitated for a while, and said, "Is Sister Su Xi usually busy?"
"Well enough."
Su Xi thought for a while and said, "I don't usually have much update volume and I'm not very busy. Is there anything I need to help?"
"That's right, I want to learn how to write novels."
Cui Geng said lightly: "I have an online writer I like very much. He is a full-time author, but the number of updates is always low, and I always say something like a card. I want to try it out if writing online writers is really so easy to write a card."
"Well……"
Su Xi frowned slightly: "It is normal for Karen to write online articles occasionally, but if Karen is available every day, that would be wrong. There are even fewer full-time authors, either they are not short of money or they are too lazy."
"It should be just too lazy, procrastination, and so on."
Cui Geng said seriously: "I want to learn how to write novels and then write about his fan. I want to write faster and better than him. He spends 2,400 yuan a day, and I will spend 6,800 yuan a day. It is best to have a total number of words that exceed him and slap him in the face."
"Hahahaha, you're so bad."
Su Xi was amused: "If you were slapped in the face like this, he would definitely not be able to continue slapping. As a big author, he still needs some face in the circle."
A full-time and sought after by such a person, he must be a big author who is at the top of the industry.
"I think so too."
Cui Geng nodded and looked at Su Xi: "So, I want to make a deal with Sister Su Xi."
“What deal?”
Su Xi was curious.
"I usually have dinner at about six o'clock, midnight snack at ten o'clock, and breakfast at six or seven o'clock in the morning. The time should be similar to yours."
Cui Geng said seriously: "I will be responsible for cooking for you in the future. If you teach me to write novels, this will not take up too much time for you, because I spend up to half an hour every day to study writing, and most of the time I still have to go to school and review. Let's chat for a while after having lunch every day. What do you think?"
“…”
Su Xi was a little embarrassed.
The two of them had a meal time, but the meaning was different.
She had breakfast at 6pm, lunch at 10pm, and dinner at 6am...a night owl.
but……
Feeling the deliciousness in his mouth, Su Xi thought the deal was quite cost-effective.
"Can."
Su Xi nodded: "But I want to explain it to you in advance. Although I am a novelist and have been writing for several years, it does not mean that I will teach others how to write. I can at most guide you, but whether you can write well depends on yourself."
This must be made clear in advance.
When writing novels, the talent for writing is far greater than hard work. Even those top skill masters cannot guarantee that they can teach authors at the level of "God-God". Even authors like Su Xi who have completely talented authors cannot guarantee that they can.
"I know."
Cui Geng nodded with a smile, then thought for a while, frowned and said, "But it will take a while. My exam scores have declined a little recently and I am under a lot of pressure. I have to improve my academic performance first, and then I can calm down and learn to write."
“This is for sure, learning is the most important thing.”
Su Xi completely agreed with his thoughts. After thinking about it, her eyes lit up: "Or, I will help you review your homework?"
Cui Geng doesn't know how to learn writing during this period, so she must be embarrassed to stay here every day. But... there is a friendly chef living opposite, and she doesn't want to go out for food or takeout every day. So Su Xi came up with a good idea. She could help the other party review her homework so that she could eat with peace of mind.
She felt that she was such a clever ghost!
"OK."
Cui Geng agreed happily: "Then start tomorrow. From now on, Sister Su Xi will help me tutor for an hour at 6 pm every day. Is this OK?"
"Why is it six o'clock in the afternoon?"
Su Xi was curious.
"Because my sister is resting during the day and has a lot of inspiration to write novels at night, I set the time to 6:00 pm. And I review my homework from about 6:00 to 9:00 every day, and I am ready to rest after watching a movie at night."
Cui Geng expressed his thoughts.
"……very nice."
Su Xi suddenly didn't know what to say. The other party was obviously several years younger than him, but he always thought about things more thoughtful and thoughtful than he thought.
After dinner.
Su Xi was hesitating whether to wash dishes, it would be fine if she had to eat and drink for free. If she wanted to ask the other party to help wash dishes, it would be a bit...
"I'll just wash the dishes."
Cui Geng saw her hesitation and said with a smile: "My sister should rarely go to the kitchen at home. I'll do this. One is also a brush, and two are also a brush."
As he said that, Cui Geng got up to clean up the chopsticks and took them to the kitchen.
When he walked to the kitchen door, he turned to look at Su Xi and smiled: "Sister, go back and write quickly. Now, you should be very inspiring."
"Oh well."
Su Xi was a little surprised and nodded subconsciously.
When she walked out the door, she realized her reaction, turned around and looked in the direction of the kitchen, and could hear the sound of water colliding with the plate, and felt a little strange. This boy, who was a few years younger than her... seemed particularly interesting.
