Quick travel to save a miserable life
Chapter 495 The Only Daughter 23
Lin Hui previously had more than [-] yuan in hand, most of which was invested in the stock market, leaving only a small amount for pocket money.
Later, with the [-] yuan that Lin's mother gave her, she also bought several stocks that she liked. After more than a year of tumbling, the stocks that she had spent more than [-] yuan to buy were now worth more than one million. .
But value is value, and it's impossible to really sell them all for money, otherwise how will you live on in the future.
After all, the income of a translator is not very stable, and only [-] to [-] yuan is received one after another in a year. This is because of her high level of translation and fast work speed.
But such a small amount of money is barely enough to pay the nanny's salary, and it is definitely not enough to support the children.
Nowadays, Father Lin and Mother Lin are usually responsible for the daily food and drink at home. Lin Hui is responsible for most of the children's expenses, including clothes, diapers and other odds and ends and the salary of the nanny. But in fact, Father Lin and Mother Lin also buy things for the children. At that time, they were not sure what to buy. When they saw something they thought was suitable for their children, they bought it back.
Although those things may not be useful, they are what the old man wants after all. After Lin Hui realized that she said it twice was of no use, she stopped stopping him and just let them go. This was also their intention for their grandson.
Just when Lin Hui was thinking about how to find another way to make money, such an unexpected amount of money fell on her head.
Lin Hui had previously translated two children's picture books for the publishing house. She felt that although the content was good, it was not suitable for China's national conditions, so she tried to draw a few pictures according to her own ideas and sent them to the publishing house. I thought I got a response.
The publishing house happened to be working on a series of picture books suitable for young children. It had been planned for a long time, but most of the picture books selected were foreign. The editor always felt that something was not appropriate, but there were really no very suitable theme picture books in China, so I could only That’s it.
Now that I have seen Lin Hui's works, I feel that her paintings are good. After showing them to the editor-in-chief, he said they were OK and asked her to perfect the picture book stories according to the themes required by the publisher and put them in this series of readers. .
The original person had studied painting before, from elementary school to high school, and did not stop until the first half semester of high school became very stressful.
Although she did not pursue the path of being an art student, she has always liked painting and photography, but in recent years she has not been in the mood to pick up a paintbrush anymore.
Lin Hui followed the story line provided by the publisher, coupled with her own divergent thinking, and drew the entire story completely and sent it.
Because it is a children's book, the length is naturally not too long. It only took four or five days of hard work to complete it. She did not think that it would definitely be successful, just because she is a mother, and for this kind of book Children are naturally interested in reading books that are educational and inspiring for young children and want to participate in them.
Unexpectedly, the picture book story drawn by Lin Hui was finally selected and was about to be published in a series of books. What followed was a negotiation between the editor and Lin Hui about royalties.
Because he was introduced to me by a friend, the price given was quite reasonable. The final fee for a booklet was [-].
For a newcomer, this price is not low. For Lin Hui, who had no hope of being selected, this is a windfall.
Although it would take a while for the money to be received, it opened up a new idea for Lin Hui to make money, which was to draw illustrations and become a painter.
Although she is not very accomplished in painting, she can barely rank among the second-rate painters. In addition, she has rich experience and a lot of insights, so she often has many ideas that others cannot touch, which makes her works unique. A refreshing feeling.
So, through the introduction of the editor of the publishing house, Lin Hui began to take on the work of illustrating some upcoming books.
However, due to the gradual popularization of the Internet, the glorious era of paper media is no longer the past, and online reading has begun to rise. Now several major portals that will be brilliant in the future have appeared, and they have opened their own flagship columns.
Nowadays, what is popular among young people is reading news online, starting a blog, becoming a blogger, visiting Tieba, and posting posts. These contents have become important adjustments in some people's lives.
Of course, according to today's market conditions, a computer with ordinary configurations costs several thousand yuan, and Internet fees are not cheap. There are still only a few people who can freely access the Internet. Most people still obtain information through newspapers, magazines and television.
For adults, it is natural to have whatever they want and watch whatever they want, but for children, there are not so many choices.
The only books they can read are books that their parents have allowed to buy, and other messy books cannot reach them.
Lin Hui mainly does illustrations for children's and young people's books. She already has some experience in these, and she seems much more comfortable doing them again.
Because she has to take care of her children and has many chores, she can't draw as fast, but she can draw more than a dozen paintings in a week, which is quite a lot.
Gradually, Lin Huihua's works gradually attracted the attention of some editors and colleagues, and he began to gain some fame. He often received many jobs from other editors or authors.
Although the overall remuneration for these jobs was actually not much, Lin Hui gradually found fun in it after drawing like this again and again, and became more and more happy with it.
She also opened a blog online, and after obtaining the consent of the author and editor, she posted her drawings on the Internet, which attracted more people's attention. Even the literary works she illustrated were also More people are informed.
To this end, she also bought a well-equipped digital tablet and connected it to the computer. When she had time, she drew some of her daily insights into works and uploaded them to her blog.
Of course, the portrayal of her son Cheng Yuan is indispensable.
In her works, Cheng Yuan is a chubby baby, cute and lively, not only has cute movements, but also has a hilarious narration that makes people laugh after reading it.
Sometimes Lin’s father and mother will also enter her paintings. They are the images of grandfathers and grandmothers with white hair and white beards, which are also quite amusing existences.
Lin Hui now picked up painting again and contributed articles to magazines and other authors. The two elders knew it, but what they didn't know was that their daughter would also draw their whole family into the painting.
One day when Lin Hui was drawing, Cheng Yuan suddenly cried. She was anxious to check on her child. A picture she was drawing on the computer was seen by Lin's mother who came in to get diapers.
At that time, she was only paying attention to her children and had no time to pay attention to all these things. After several people worked together to clean Cheng Yuan and put it away, Mother Lin had time to come over and take a closer look at the computer.
