Chapter 113: An invitation to pretend to be a man, a model?
At this moment, Zeng Xiaoxian once again saw the contemptuous and disgusted look of the receptionist.
"Ahem, what's wrong with him?"
"Teacher Li Mo, this guy has been lingering in front of our magazine for the whole morning, squatting from time to time. I suspect he is a voyeur."
"Can you speak a little louder? Who do you think is the voyeur?"
Zeng Xiaoxian couldn't hold back after hearing the ridicule. He was about to argue with the other party. Fortunately, Li Mo stopped Zeng Xiaoxian in time, thus avoiding a conflict.
"Ahem, calm down. This is what I mean. Can you do me a favor and cancel my book order? Then, next time I publish a new book, I can give you a signed copy for free."
"No problem, since it's Teacher Li Mo's request, I will definitely help, unlike some perverts."
After hearing Li Mo's promise, the girl at the front desk agreed immediately, but her eyes and words towards Zeng Xiaoxian were full of the word "pervert".
Zeng Xiaoxian was extremely angry, but he had no way to deal with the other party and could only accept the matter.
Li Mo, who originally thought that things might be very troublesome, saw the receptionist ask Zeng Xiaoxian for her phone number directly, and after a few simple operations on the computer, she had finished her work.
"Okay, it's done."
"Is this the end? So soon?"
"We are a quality magazine company, and we only distribute magazines to some truly successful men. Not everyone has the conditions to subscribe to our magazines. You are the first (man) to actively cancel the subscription."
Hearing the other party deliberately emphasize the word "man", Zeng Xiaoxian suddenly felt as if his chest was hit hard. Even Li Mo could only pat the other party on the shoulder. After all, this kind of thing really can't be explained. Everyone has their own opinions.
Li Mo didn't have the habit of having a lot of collections at home like Lin Wanyu did. Li Mo really didn't have the ability to find faults in the content of other people's magazines.
"By the way, beautiful lady, what's your name?"
"Teacher Li Mo, just call me Emily"
"Okay, Emily, I just want to ask, you said my autographed books are sold for thousands of dollars each, why are they so expensive?"
At this time, Li Mo interrupted Emily's ridicule and asked her curiously why the price of her book had soared so fast.
"Teacher Li Mo, don't you know it yourself?"
"Me? Know what?"
Seeing that Li Mo really seemed to be unaware, Emily took out her phone, searched for a hot search information and put it directly in front of Li Mo. Li Mo picked up the phone and looked at it carefully.
(Mr. Liao, the president of the National Calligraphy Association, said that Li Mo's calligraphy is innovative and his characters are worth collecting. His level has reached that of a master. In a few decades, as long as Li Mo writes well, he will definitely be a master of calligraphy.)
Li Mo was shocked when he saw the article above. Moreover, this was news on the hot search. Although it was once the top five hot search news, it was still a hot search. For Li Mo who traveled through time, he already knew very well what these so-called hot searches were. They were nothing more than fabricated by various brokerage companies.
In other words, they wanted to create some hot events, and then there would be a large number of water armies, constantly rushing traffic and brushing comments. However, Li Mo knew very well that this would never happen with things related to him, and Li Mo was too lazy to bother.
With this news, plus Li Mo's autographed book and the price, Li Mo finally understood why the price of a book was hyped up to thousands of yuan.
To put it bluntly, someone is deliberately taking advantage of this incident to make a profit. They first buy up these signed books at a low price. For some ordinary book fans, they care more about the content rather than the signature.
A book that costs less than 300 yuan is bought back for or yuan, and then the price of the book is raised by using this video, and finally the book is sold out little by little to earn the high difference in the middle. One thousand yuan is just the beginning, and the difference may continue to increase in the future. Some people may even sell the book for yuan because of regret, and later regret spending yuan to buy it back.
"Xiao Mo, you are amazing. Your calligraphy is so good."
"Why are you so high? You are being used as a tool to make money, and you are still happy?"
"what?"
"Okay, let's go first."
"Wait a minute, you are Teacher Li Mo, right?"
Just when Li Mo was about to pull Zeng Xiaoxian away, a figure suddenly stopped Li Mo's steps. Li Mo turned around and saw a middle-aged man with glasses staring at him with narrowed eyes.
"you are?"
"Oh, I'm Rong Li, the president of this newspaper. Are you free? Can I chat with you?"
When Li Mo heard this, he immediately refused. The main reason was that he couldn't think of anything to talk about with the other party.
"Sorry, we are busy now, so we won't bother you any more."
"It's just a chat. I am willing to provide both of you with a lifetime free VIP edition of men's magazines."
Li Mo didn't take the other party's offer seriously. Just as he was about to look for it, Zeng Xiaoxian grabbed his arm.
"Zeng Xiao Xian!"
"Xiao Mo, I promise this is the last time. Just listen to me. I'll ask Lisa for leave for you tonight, and I'll take care of any losses. How about that?"
"Okay, this is the last time."
After hearing this, Li Mo hesitated for a moment and finally agreed. The two of them talked in private, and the other party didn't hear it.
"Okay, let's go to the cafe downstairs. I'm thirsty."
"I have freshly ground Blue Mountain coffee here, please..."
Seeing Rong Li's enthusiasm, Li Mo no longer objected and went to his office to discuss the matter in detail. At first, Li Mo thought that the other party was interested in his book The Three-Body Problem and wanted to take the opportunity to talk about the second part of The Three-Body Problem. However, the fact was that the other party's purpose was not the Three-Body Problem at all, but Li Mo himself.
"Teacher Li Mo, I personally admire you very much. Your appearance and figure are in line with our purpose of pretending to be a man. I have always wanted to get in touch with you, but your studio does not accept it. I just happened to get in touch with you. Don't worry, you can set the remuneration as you like."
“Sorry, I’m really not interested.”
Not to mention that Li Mo himself has no interest in being a model, even if he is really interested, he would not be a cover model.
"Teacher Li Mo, if you have any concerns or time requirements, we can try our best to meet them. I sincerely hope to have a chance to cooperate with you, and of course, this gentleman next to you is also welcome."
