Chapter 30: Halloween Eve

　　 Although there are always some minor disputes between Demi and his brother Jack, many of them show the kind of innocuous pranks and tenderness between brothers and sisters in a happy family, which makes Kim Hyun-tae very envious.
　　 And Nat’s family is also a typical American family. Demi and Jack brothers and sisters also represent the kind of interaction between brothers and sisters in most American families.
　　 Kim Hyun-tae is very envious of this.
　　 At least my family is not complete, which is a pity.
　　 Kim Hyun Tae, who returned home, did not go to the publishing house as he said, but stayed at home all day.
　　 What he said to his wife Anna at Nat's house was just an excuse. Kim Hyun-tae had no plans to meet Dave in the publishing house today.
　　 For the whole day, Kim Hyun Tae stayed at home, tinkering with his "Fairy Tales" piracy, and completed the whole "Fairy Tale of Brothers Grimm" selected by him in this day.
Not every fairy tale of "Brothers Grimm" is suitable for children. There are also some strange and dark stories. These stories need to be eliminated. Therefore, Jin Xiantai just selected some more suitable ones, which are not available in this parallel time and space. Fairy tales.
　　 In this way, Kim Hyun-tae was writing at home and he recovered some of the sequelae caused by the hangover last night. It was a whole day.
　　 My daughter is very happy to play alone, not at all making noise because she can't go out to play.
　　 When coaxing her daughter to sleep at night, the little guy made a fuss for a while, just clamoring for her mother, which made Kim Hyun Tae very sad.
　　 In the end, the little guy was coaxed to fall asleep by Kim Hyun Tae, which made Kim Hyun Tae breathe a sigh of relief.
　　 Although I am sorry for my daughter, Kim Hyun Tae is really helpless on this issue.
　　 First of all, his appearance is only 16 years old. Where would you ask him to find a suitable woman to be his wife?
　　 And just find a girlfriend, people are not willing to bring cocoa.
　　Moreover, the most important thing is that in Jin Xiantai's heart, there is no other woman's position at all, and he has never thought about accepting another woman into the lives of the father and daughter.
　　 After all, the current Kim Hyun-tae is still full of images of his wife, and he can't get rid of it.
　　 It is for this reason that Jin Xiantai feels that it is because of his own reasons that he cannot fulfill his daughter's need for Cocoa, so he feels very guilty.
　　 My daughter has grown up now, and she knows that she is arguing for her mother. Kim Hyun Tae feels very distressed for this.
　　 "Oh! This matter, let's take one step at a time." In the end, Jin Xiantai could only sigh secretly.
　　 When a person came to the living room, Kim Hyun-tae turned on the LCD TV, planning to watch the midnight show to kill time and improve his mood.
　　 It's a pity that the TV shows of each station are extremely boring soap operas, neither funny nor beautiful, which makes Kim Hyun Tae's mood even worse.
　　 Simply, Kim Hyun-tae played the game console, and did not wash up until 23:00 to sleep and rest.
　　 The next day, Kim Hyun-tae changed his daughter's clothes as usual, and did not get wet. After making breakfast for her daughter, he took her daughter to take the car and left home.
　　 Today, he really went to the publishing house.
　　 After all, I want to show Dave the new novel "The Lord of the Rings" and talk about the publication and the publication of the "William's Fairy Tales" he "created" within two days.
　　 These things are obviously very impolite to contact by phone or email. Only face-to-face interviews are more formal.
　　With the manuscripts of novels and fairy tales, Kim Hyun-tae drove his Audi A8, put his daughter in the back seat and drove all the way towards Los Angeles.
　　 On the highway from Monica to Los Angeles in the morning, there are densely packed cars. It can be seen that there are many people who live outside of Los Angeles but have to work in Los Angeles.
　　 Fortunately, time is not tight for Kim Hyun Tae, so I don’t care at all about the slow traffic caused by heavy traffic.
　　 opened the car CD and played soft and soothing pure music. Kim Hyun-tae drove the car forward slowly while enjoying it.
When the car passed a certain position on the expressway, Kim Hyun-tae was curious to find that in front of every shop in this commercial street, all kinds of alternative costumes and masks were placed, and there were also fun. Clown and pumpkin lantern.
　　 Oh, yes, it's almost Halloween!
　　 Kim Hyun Tae was confused at first, but he quickly remembered this.
　　 At the end of October, on the 31st, it is Halloween in the United States.
　　 On this day, every child will dress up eccentrically, and then knock on the door from door to door to get sweets, and they will also yell the slogan ‘trouble with no sugar’.
I came to the United States in this time and space with my daughter. It was Christmas Day on January 1st. Unfortunately, from that time on, I had been thinking about how to support his family. So until now, he has been thinking about how to support his family. I haven't done it. Basically, I didn't wash the car in the car wash or wash the dishes in the restaurant.
　　 Even with his daughter Coco, I have never experienced the festive atmosphere here.
　　 But now it’s different. My economic conditions have completely improved and I don’t have to worry about money anymore. Of course I can also spend a decent holiday with my daughter, right?
　　 Kim Hyun Tae, who feels that his daughter has lost a lot of money, decides to spend this Halloween with her daughter, so that the little guy can feel the fun Halloween atmosphere, and at the same time make the little guy happy.
　　 It’s actually very simple to talk about how to celebrate Halloween.
　　 is nothing more than decorating in your backyard and front door, such as placing a few pumpkin lanterns, some scarecrows, scary clowns and other gadgets, and don't forget to prepare a lot of candies.
　　 At that time, I had to dress myself and my children, and put on some weird and alternative costumes.
　　 On Halloween night, children will come and go in droves to get candy from everyone's house.
　　 And the Monica Beach community where I rented is also a community mainly composed of white residents. Obviously, I will definitely not miss a festival like Halloween.
Although there are not many families in the community, there are only 700 or 800 households, but considering that Americans do not have family planning, basically every family will have two or three children. Even if you exclude those unmarried single men and women, you have to The prepared sweets cannot be missing.
　　 But what does it mean to Kim Hyun Tae!
　　 He has money now and can buy a lot of sweets, so he won't disappoint those children.
　　 Besides, he can also dress up his daughter and take her out to get candy everywhere.
　　 It took about an hour before Kim Hyun-tae drove to the publishing house. Compared with the usual half-hour drive, Kim Hyun-tae spent twice as much time on the road due to poor morning peak expressway conditions.
When 　　 went out, Jin Xiantai checked the time, it was 8 o'clock in the morning.
　　 And now it's over 9 o'clock when I arrive at the publishing house.
　　 I parked the car in the parking lot of the publishing house. Kim Hyun-tae took his daughter from the elevator in the parking lot and went directly to the fifth floor of the publishing house to Dave’s office.
　　 Dave was not very busy today. When Kim Hyun-tae found him, Dave was sitting behind his desk and drinking coffee leisurely. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows on the side, he watched the hustle and bustle of people and cars on the street.
　　 Standing at the door, Kim Hyun-tae knocked on the open office door politely, instead of walking straight in.
　　 The knock on the door interrupted Dave who was leisurely tasting coffee, making him turn his head to see who the person was.
Dave’s secretary, Laura, took over the little guy in Kim Hyun Tae’s arms in a timely manner, and she started to take care of him like last time. The little guy also obviously likes to play with all kinds of women, so Coco’s attention was transferred to Laura. Here.
　　 Seeing that Dave saw him, Kim Hyun-tae walked into the office and said directly at the same time.
　　 "Last time we communicated on the phone, so I won't be too verbose. This is the manuscript of the first volume of the new novel "Lord of the Rings". You can read it first."
　　 Kim Hyun-tae walked to the sofa familiarly, then sat on the sofa, and placed the first manuscript of "Lord of the Rings" he had brought on the coffee table in front of him.
　　 Dave also got up from behind the desk at this time, walked to the opposite side of Kim Hyun Tae and sat down, then leaned forward slightly, reached out and picked up the "Lord of the Rings" manuscript on the coffee table and flipped through it.
　　 Although Mr. Dave's appearance is not very good, he has a very good vision as an executive of a publishing house.
　　 glanced through the manuscript of "Lord of the Rings", and he could basically conclude in his heart that this is a magical novel that can sell well.
Therefore, he raised his head and looked at Jin Xiantai seriously and said: "This is a novel that can be sold. How about it? Let us publish it by California Cultural Press. I can even give you more preferential royalties. Some, how about 20%?"
　　嚯!
　　 In the three-volume manuscript of the first novel "A Song of Ice and Fire", Dave gave himself only a 10% royalty share, but even so, he made himself a profit.
　　 Now the manuscript of "Lord of the Rings" he brought is only one volume, but Dave has offered a 20% royalty share, which is a big leap.
"Don't be surprised. Now you are a big seller of novels, so I can't treat you as a newcomer, and you have a lot of potential. I don't want to befriend a potential young writer like you. ."
　　 Dave gave an explanation, UU reading www.uukanshu. Although com makes sense, it is a bit far-fetched.
　　 To be honest, even if "A Song of Ice and Fire" is a big hit and Kim Hyun-tae has great potential, it's not worthy of Dave's treatment.
　　 You know, this is a blunt split of royalties and doubled it!
　　 But Jin Xiantai didn't bother to think about the factors, anyway, this is a good thing for him, isn't it?
　　 "I have no opinion. I accept the 20% share of royalties. "Lord of the Rings" can be handed over to the publisher for publishing, but it is only the publishing agency for English paper books."
　　 Kim Hyun Tae was still not faint, and reminded Dave a little.
Dave smiled and didn't care at all: "What our publisher wants is only the agency rights in the United States, the English version of the paper book publishing agency rights, this is no different from "A Song of Ice and Fire". "
　　 These words made Kim Hyun Tae relax, and everything went so smoothly, which made Kim Hyun Tae feel relaxed and happy from the bottom of his heart, and began to like dealing with Dave.
　　 Kim Hyun-tae, who was in a good mood, took out another manuscript and put it on the coffee table. This was his pirated "William's Fairy Tale" manuscript.
　　 Dave looked at Jin Xiantai curiously, and then looked at the manuscript on the coffee table.
"this is……?"
　　 Kim Hyun Tae said: "A fairy tale I created, can you help me see if it works, can it be published?"
　　, it’s not just a magical story, but there are also fairy tales. Your creative speed is too fast.
　　 Hearing Kim Hyun Tae's words, Dave's face suddenly showed a surprised expression.
