Chapter 51 The afterlife is terrifying

At this time, the blue bird was really anxious, originally he thought that March refused to publish it centrally because he really didn't have time, but now it seems that March didn't want to publish a short story in the supernatural world, so he quickly called March again.

After receiving the call from the Jade Bird, Zhang Xiaoqiang was speechless: "The Blue Bird is big, didn't I tell you everything? The high school entrance examination is about to begin, and I am now in the midst of intense review, and I really don't have time to write." ”

"It's only half a month to write an article, how can you not have time? March, tell me honestly, is it a folk ghost story looking for you, they are very good at digging up authors, how much money did they give you?"

"No one poached me, I just didn't want to write it. ”

"No matter how much the folk ghost story gives you, we will give you double, I admit, two thousand words is too little, shall we increase the price immediately?"

Zhang Xiaoqiang sighed: "To tell you the truth, I didn't go to any magazine, but I don't want to publish it in the supernatural world, I want to find a publishing house to publish it myself." ”

"Why? You know, although you are still quite famous, but not famous, because you have not published many works, if you go to the publishing house yourself, it is impossible for people to take care of you, if you publish through our supernatural world, it will be different, at least we can give you a guarantee, 100,000 yuan, are you still too little?"

Of course, if Liaozhai is filmed into a film and television drama in the later stage, I don't know how many 100,000 are waiting for him.

The supernatural world doesn't know the value of Liaozhai, so Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't classify the blue bird as an insatiable kind of person, but changed his words and said: "The blue bird is big, if you want me to agree to the centralized publication, it's very simple, I don't want any of the 100,000 yuan, but after publication, no matter how much benefit Liao Zhai produces, I want to share it with your magazine, do you think this is okay?"

"This ......" Blue Bird hesitated: "I need to ask the general manager for instructions, and I will give you an answer in a moment." ”

More than ten minutes later, the blue bird's phone called again, but it was another man who spoke, and he smiled heartily: "Hello March, I am the general manager of the supernatural world, my name is Wang Kunming, you can call me Lao Wang! Haha, I didn't expect that the little brother in March was still a student, and it was really terrifying to be able to write such a wonderful supernatural story." ”

"I call you brother, you don't mind. ”

"Hehe, is there anything wrong with Mr. Wang?" After hearing Wang Kunming's words, Zhang Xiaoqiang smiled.

"I heard that you are not satisfied with the price offered by the blue bird, brother, otherwise, you offer a price, and we will discuss it. ”

"I've already told Jade Bird about this, if you publish my articles intensively, I don't want a penny, I only need 50% of the profits. ”

"In March, you must be joking, you may not know that we publish your article intensively, and there is a risk of failure,

Give you 100,000 manuscript fees, that's because you have brought sales to our supernatural world, you see that you have only written a few articles now, although the response is very good, but no one dares to guarantee that what you write in the future will not be popular. So we're going to give you the manuscript fee now, so to speak, a venture capital. ”

"Just now the blue bird told me, do you want to find a publishing house by yourself? Haha, my brother, you are really joking, do you know how much financial resources it takes for a publishing house to publish a book? What if you can't get back the money you put out? ”

"Mr. Wang, since that's the case, forget it. ”

As he spoke, Zhang Xiaoqiang was about to hang up the phone.

"Don't! March, listen to me, I absolutely didn't mean to lie to you, and I gave you a centralized publication, all because you wrote these short stories well and responded well, but no one can say whether there will be a market after centralized publication. ”

"What you mean is that if you gamble again, and then bet on whether there is a market after centralized publication, if there is a market, you will make a lot of money, if there is no market, then your early investment, as well as the 100,000 manuscript fee given to me, will be in vain. ”

Hearing Zhang Xiaoqiang say this, Wang Kunming was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but say: "March, sometimes I really doubt your age, and whether you are a student or not, even this may be guessed." ”

"I'm not guessing, I'm analyzing. ”

"Since you have analyzed it, then I will confess to you, you are right, we are planning to do this, if you agree, I am willing to add another 50,000 to you. ”

"Mr. Wang, let me make it clear to you, even if you give me one million, I won't agree, because I know how much the story I write is worth, and it will be made into a film and television drama in the future, and it will be a big production, the protagonists are all first-line stars, and the movies made will win various awards. ”

Wang Kunming couldn't help but smile: "You are so confident." ”

"Of course. ”

"March, it's a good thing for people to have confidence, but sometimes you must not be arrogant, to tell you, if you publish it intensively, I am very optimistic, but you said that it was filmed into a film and television drama and won awards, I don't believe it at all, I feel that this is a fantasy. ”

"Mr. Wang, since you don't believe it, then I have nothing to say, let's wait and see!"

After Zhang Xiaoqiang finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

On the other end, listening to the blind sound coming from the earpiece, Wang Kunming sighed.

The blue bird next to him hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How is it, did he agree in March?"

Wang Kunming shook his head: "I have increased the price to 150,000 for him, but he still hasn't agreed, he said that his story will be remade into a film and television drama in the future, Blue Bird, do you think it's possible?"

"Mr. Wang, now is not the time to discuss this, the current situation is that not only did March not agree, but also did not give me the manuscript for the next issue!"

Wang Kunming smiled bitterly: "He won't give us a manuscript in the future." ”

"Ahh

"As you said before, he wanted to find a publishing house to publish these short stories he wrote, and if it weren't for us, he wouldn't have thought about finding a publishing house at all. ”

"Mr. Wang, if there is no March, the sales of our supernatural world are likely to fall!"

"What's the solution, isn't the next issue not typeset yet? Stop all publicity for March, and issue a notice in the magazine, saying that the supernatural writers will no longer write for us in March, and we are actively discussing with March......

"There's no need for that. ”

"Why is it not necessary, have you forgotten the lessons of folk ghost tales?"

The blue bird suddenly realized: "Knowing Mr. Wang, I'll do it immediately." ”
