When he saw Wu An's news, Lin Bao was preparing to open a stall.

"Okay, thank you. ”

Lin Bao replied, looked up, and looked at the time, it was already half past one.

I promised that the students would open the store half an hour earlier so that they would not delay their class time.

"Master, have you noticed that there are a lot fewer people in the store today? ”

Cao Zige, who had been playing the guitar for more than an hour and resting while wiping his sweat, said suddenly.

"Is it missing?"

Lin Bao usually patronizes the kebabs with his head down, and basically cares little about the customers in the store.

He looked up and found that it was indeed that although the store was still almost full today, it was obviously much worse than the previous two days.

"I heard that a thousand paper cranes have recently released a very good original song?"

Yu Qin passed by, heard it, and said.

Cao Zige nodded: "Well, in the song collection contest held by Qianjihe recently, I heard that there was a student from Lin University who wrote a song of the same name, and the quality was very high. Today, it seems that it is the time for the award to be announced, and the student of Lin University will also sing that song live. ”

"Tut, I didn't expect that Lin University, an agricultural university, also has music creation masters. ”

Yu Qin said, "Didn't the magic sound participate?"

Cao Zige said: "There are many seniors and seniors who participated, and some wrote very well. However, I really can't suppress that song, it's too strong!"

"Is it so powerful?"

Yu Qin was a little puzzled, "Junior brother, you have heard it, how about your song "Ten Miles of Spring Breeze"?"

"I haven't heard of it either. ”

Cao Zige shook his head, "But the two songs can't be regarded as one style, and it's not good to compare them." Qianjihe contacted Mr. Qian before and showed him the song, and Mr. Qian said that it was very good, it was a popular lyrical style. Compared with folk songs, it is more favored by the mainstream of the pop music industry now. ”

"Hey, it's a pity, a good song was robbed by the people of a thousand paper cranes. ”

Yu Qin was a little regretful, "If you can get our store, and then let the boss of Bao'er check it, you will definitely be able to bring the popularity of the barbecue restaurant again." ”

She glanced at Boss Bao'er, who was grilling skewers next to her and didn't have the slightest expression of worry because of the strength of her opponent.

"It was written specifically for a thousand paper cranes, and it was given to us, but it was promoted to others......"

Cao Zige smiled a little helplessly, and then said, "But I want to hear that song, and I was praised by Teacher Qian." In the afternoon, there may be a live recorded video in the evening. Tsk, I was able to write such a high-quality song, it's very strong!"

Yu Qin was disdainful: "That's because you didn't make a move, if you do, how can you have their share?"

Cao Zige shook his head: "Senior sister, the masters are in the folk, even outside the conservatory, there are still many powerful people." ”

Both of them subconsciously looked at Lin Bao, who was sprinkling spices and brushing chili oil on the skewers next to them.

Tsk, the master is indeed in the folk, and he also has chili oil.

......

When it was almost three o'clock, Lin Bao saw a message on his phone to add friends, and the appendix information was: "Editor-in-chief of 18 groups of Yinhe.com." ”

After adding it, soon, the other party sent a message: "Hello, I'm Zhang Ye, the editor-in-chief of Yinhe.com, and I'm looking for you to talk to you about the contract for your "Actor's Self-cultivation". ”

"Hello. Lin Bao replied.

"Regarding the contract agreement, the editor in charge of the website should have talked to you yesterday. ”

Zhang Ye sent a message, "300 thousand words is the price set by the previous website copyright colleagues, but I think they actually set it a little low." As the direct person in charge of your book, I also have some power to raise the price. Therefore, after getting the news of the editor-in-charge last night, I chatted with Mr. He of the company to help you raise the copyright to 450 thousand words, which is a signing standard that some website platinum gods may not be able to get. ”

In fact, this time, after evaluating Lin Bao's book, the company's senior management gave a price of 450 thousand words.

And Zhang Ye pressed the price to 300 words per thousand, not because he wanted to make a profit from it, but because he hoped to save the company a sum of money this time to calm down the above unhappiness about the unsigned key book.

Moreover, he himself analyzed it in detail.

First of all, this author is not, as Vogel said, a teacher in the industry. He is just an ordinary person, and when he posts his anthology on the company's website, he naturally wants to promote his works through a platform with strong display such as online literature websites.

After all, in the domestic publishing market, unless you have a good name or a relationship, ordinary people, no matter how well the content is written, the publisher will not bird you.

Moreover, although there is Vogel's previous publicity, in fact, this book has been a bit of a topic recently, and its popularity has been declining rapidly. The general audience, watching the excitement, must not be interested in opening such a book. Those academics in the domestic industry are even more scornful of such things.

In fact, at present, the value of the book is not as good as Vogel boasted at the press conference.

Therefore, in Zhang Ye's initial opinion, the price of 300 thousand words was enough to satisfy the other party. Even if you reach more than one million words and a manuscript fee of 300,000 yuan, even some traditional writers will be tempted!

It's just that what he didn't expect was that the other party actually refused.

Zhang Ye guessed that there may have been other websites or publishers who had contacted the author, and just in case, something went wrong, so he directly threw out the thousand-word 450 given by the company.

However, he did not say that he had lowered the price before, but said that he had helped raise the price. In this way, first, it gives the author a preset to trust himself, and at the same time, it also implies that this is also the maximum price that the website can give.

After sending the message, Zhang Ye waited for the other party's reply, and soon, he saw the other party's polite refusal: "Thank you Teacher Zhang Ye for your kindness, and thank you very much for helping to fight for the interests of this book." However, I don't have the idea of signing a contract at the moment, so I'm sorry. ”

Zhang Ye frowned and sent a message: "Is there an editor from other websites who has contacted you? ”

"No, I really don't have the idea of signing for the time being. ”

In fact, you must know that the website is very sincere in giving such a high price. Believe me, after this village, there will be no such shop. ”

“...... I'm sorry Mr. Zhang Ye, it's really not for this reason. ”

"Oh well. If you have an idea of signing a contract, please contact me. ”

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Zhang Ye. ”

......

Boom!

In the office, Zhang Ye directly threw the contract in his hand on the desk: "The whole thing is a white-eyed wolf! I got the benefits of publicity from the website, and the book is a little hot, I really think I'm very awesome?"

He didn't believe that Lin Bao really didn't have the idea of signing a contract, it seemed that the other party completely wanted to sell at a price.

However, Zhang Ye knew that the other party was asking for his own hardship.

It is precisely because of the popularity of Vogel's help in publicity, coupled with Voge's evaluation, that the website will give such a high price, which is completely taking advantage of it.

The other party is still not satisfied?

If this period of time passes, even if Vogel helps recommend it again, Yinhe.com will definitely not come up with such a high contract again. When the time comes, there will be times when he cries.

However, this is not what Zhang Ye cares about, what he cares about is that now that the high-level has taken down this task, if he doesn't complete it, what will the above think of him?

"What a big hassle......"

Now looking at the title of the book "Actor's Self-cultivation", Zhang Ye feels a burst of irritability.

The garbage is not a book that many people read, and it is a clean day to cause trouble.

"Wait. ”

A question occurred to him.

Since this book is about going the publishing route, why not throw the pot at the publishing department?

Besides, this book shouldn't be something that their online content department should worry about, so why should they worry about it?

This troublesome matter, let's just say that the other party wants to go in the direction of publishing, so I want to talk to the publishing department, just throw it at them, and let them have a headache!

Thinking of this, Zhang Ye felt a lot more comfortable and began to report to his superiors.
