This hearty lunch was eaten until about two o'clock in the afternoon.

Liu Zixia and Lang Wenxing personally sent the guests who came to participate in the ribbon-cutting ceremony to the door of the company.

Liu Zixia's friends, the four mentors of the new voice, and the seven brothers of the running man......

and other celebrities have also left, leaving only Liu Zixia's brothers in the same bedroom and their girlfriends, as well as the editor-in-chief of Yihua Publishing House, Gao Zhuo, who specially Liu Zixia came down.

As the deputy general manager of the studio, Su Nuo acted as a guide and led a few girls around.

Gao Zhuo followed Liu Zixia into the office.

As soon as he sat down, Gao Zhuo complained: "I said Brother Liu, you are not authentic!"

Liu Zixia made a pot of tea for Gao Zhuo and said with a smile: "Why am I not authentic?"

"Your book "Journey to the West" has already gone crazy on the Internet! According to incomplete statistics, at least tens of millions of people are watching it. If you don't contact me directly to publish such a good work, why do you want to go through the Internet?"

Gao Zhuo's face was full of incomprehension: "And do you lack the little money of electronic copyright now?"

Others may not know how much money Liu Zixia made with "Yueyue's Goodnight Story", but can Gao Zhuo not know?

With Liu Zixia's worth, the little profit obtained from the electronic sale of copyrights is really not less.

"Aren't you the editor-in-chief of the children's department?" Liu Zixia wondered: "My "Journey to the West" is a long mythological novel, but it is not a children's book, even if I look for you, what can I do?"

"Don't you know?" Gao Zhuo was stunned for a moment and said, "Haha, that's right, I was only promoted recently! Xiaotong and they don't know yet!"

"What do you mean?" Liu Zixia said with a smile: "Could it be that you have become the president of Yihua Publishing House?"

Gao Zhuo said with a smile: "Brother Liu, you look up to me too much! I have been working hard for half my life before I finally got to the editor-in-chief, and it is estimated that I will work in the position of editor-in-chief until I retire." ”

"Editor-in-chief?" Liu Zixia said with a smile: "Then I want to congratulate Brother Gao on his promotion and salary increase." ”

"If you want to say thank you, it should be me thank you. ”

Gao Zhuo waved his hand again and again, "If it weren't for the east wind of "Yueyue's Good Night Story", the position of editor-in-chief might not be anyone's." ”

"Brother Gao, you are too modest!"

Liu Zixia shook his head, "The president of Yihua Publishing House is not a fool, if you don't have the ability, he will definitely not let you be the editor-in-chief." ”

"Yes, whatever words come into your mouth, you can speak comfortably. ”

Gao Zhuo took a sip of tea and said, "Okay, let's get down to business!" I have taken a fancy to your "Journey to the West", and I want to publish it for you, so you can give me a word." ”

Liu Zixia touched his chin and thought for a while before he said, "I can't give you an accurate answer to this, I need to update it for a few more days and see if I talk about it." ”

"Don't!"

When Gao Zhuo heard this, he immediately became anxious, "Are you afraid that the price given to you by our publishing house is not high? Can't you see our sincerity from "Yueyue's Goodnight Story"? "Journey to the West" is still at the price of "Yueyue's Goodnight Story", how about it?"

"To be honest, quite a few publishing houses have contacted me through the editors of the digital Chinese network, hoping to get the simplified and traditional Chinese copyright of this "Journey to the West". ”

Liu Zixia explained: "Whether it is the digital price or the copyright share, they are higher than "Yueyue's Good Night Story", I have never been able to make up my mind before, and even want to hold a auction, the highest price wins." ”

Liu Zixia is not trying to deceive Gao Zhuo, there are indeed many well-known Chinese publishing houses that have contacted him and want to publish this novel.

Don't look at the serialization of "Journey to the West", not even half of it, but judging from the potential of "Journey to the West" and the current popularity, it is a matter of time before it becomes popular all over the world.

Therefore, these well-known publishing houses in China are all like cats that smell fishy, and they surround them.

"It's higher than the price of "Yueyue's Good Night Story"?" Gao Zhuo smashed his lips and frowned.

"The Goodnight Story of the Moon" only has a 15-year simplified Chinese publishing copyright, which is 300 words per 1,000 words, plus 30% of the after-sales share, while a 15-year traditional Chinese publishing copyright is 500 per thousand words, plus 40% of the after-sales share.

The price offered by those publishers is even higher than this, which is indeed a bit unexpected by Gao Zhuo.

Moreover, if Liu Zixia really has a bidding, there are so many top publishing houses in the country, and there is nothing to do with their Yihua Publishing House!

Therefore, we must not give up this opportunity, and we must take "Journey to the West"!

After being silent for about 5 minutes, Gao Zhuo raised his head and asked, "Zixia, it's not the first time we've worked together, so you can give me a solid account, how much do you want?"

"I'm fair. Liu Zixia restored the nature of a female businessman, "The same is a 15-year publishing copyright, 500 simplified thousand words, 40% of the after-sales share, 700 traditional thousand words, 45% of the after-sales share!"

robbed, Liu Zixia is blatantly beating local tyrants and dividing the land!

The price of "this ......" scared Gao Zhuo a little, and the price was slightly higher!

"It doesn't matter, even if I don't choose Yihua Publishing House, we are still good friends. Seeing Gao Zhuo's embarrassment, Liu Zixia simply added another fire, "If there is still a chance to cooperate in the future, let's ...... again"

"I want it!" Liu Zixia was interrupted by Gao Zhuo before he could finish speaking, "I accept your price, but before publishing, I need your cooperation to publicize it." ”

Liu Zixia nodded and said, "As long as I don't show up and reveal my identity, I will cooperate with all your publicity." ”

"Okay, happy cooperation!" Gao Zhuo stretched out his hand to Liu Zixia.

Liu Zixia shook it lightly and said with a smile: "Happy cooperation!"

......

Coincidentally, just after Liu Zixia and Gao Zhuo of Yihua Publishing House had just negotiated the publication, in the office hall of the editor of the digital Chinese network, because "Journey to the West" also made a noise.

Since that afternoon, Orange signed "Journey to the West", as "Journey to the West" has become popular on the Internet, all the editors have been discussing this novel every day.

"Hey, the novel "Journey to the West" is really well written, who signed it?"

"Banyang, your Xianxia group is famous this time. ”

"It won't be durian again, right? Hey, that's not good, the same category of novels is randomly assigned to the same group of editors......"

In the editorial hall of the digital Chinese network, all the editors were curious about who signed this novel.

They have been guessing for many days, but no matter how much they think about it, the editor who signed "Journey to the West" is quite calm and has never shown his head.

There is no way, there are several authors under whose editor, this is all a secret, only the editor in charge of the contract and the editor-in-chief of the company know, and even the editor-in-chief of each group does not know.

Everyone's performance at the end of the month is just a summary of the data and a table.

Although it is possible to guess which best-selling novel was signed by whom, it is a secret that the editor himself does not say it.

There are few like durian, and they talk about how many small gods, middle gods, and big gods they have under their hands all day long, and they can't wait for everyone in the world to know how powerful he is.

"It's a meeting, it's a meeting!"

At this time, the editors-in-chief of their respective editorial groups began to beckon their editors to go to the conference room for a meeting.

In the editing conference room of the digital Chinese website, the editor-in-chief Tangerine sat in the main seat, with a laptop in front of him.

On her left and right, there are boys' channels and girls' channels, followed by the most popular fantasy group, urban group, game competition group, historical military group, and finally the Xianxia group.

"Alright, let's start the meeting. Tangerine tapped lightly on the table, "Three months ago, our company hired a new batch of intern editors, this batch of editors has a total of 14 people, according to the situation of your editorial group, they have been assigned, and now the time has come, presumably the intern editors should be very nervous." ”

At this point, Tangerine chuckled:

"Under the contract, seven intern editors will leave the company. Girls' channel, green basket, jasmine, boys' channel, lychee, mango, peach, watermelon...... After a while, you can go to the finance department to settle your salary and bonuses, and from tomorrow onwards, you won't have to go to work. ”

This time, the editor retention is not based on the performance ranking of the intern editors on the whole site, but according to the performance ranking of each group of intern editors.

And each group is assigned two editors, and whoever has a good performance stays, it's as simple as that.

Hearing Tangerine's words, the editors-in-chief of each group frowned.

"Editor-in-chief, why don't you rank according to the performance of the whole site this time?"

The editor-in-chief of the fantasy group, Wanyue, said, "You also know that our fantasy group has always been the busiest, and according to the performance ranking of the whole site in the first two months, they can all stay, so that our fantasy group can also be more relaxed." ”

"Yes, editor-in-chief. ”

Banyang, the editor-in-chief of the Xianxia Group, was a little red in his chubby face, "In the past two months, durian has always been the first in the performance ranking of intern editors, even according to the performance of each group, what is left should be durian, not orange?"

Night Star, the editor-in-chief of the costume romance group, also said with some dissatisfaction: "Editor-in-chief, this is not fair, there are few editors of our girls' channel, Green Basket and Jasmine, who are also at the top of the editorial ranking of the whole site, why should you quit them?"

The editors-in-chief of the editorial teams all expressed their wishes, and without exception, they were all confused and dissatisfied.

There was a lot of hype in the conference room, and both the editors-in-chief of each group and the editors under them were all talking.

Especially durian, who has been the number one performer among intern editors for the past two months, in addition to his gloomy face, there is anger in his eyes that is difficult to hide.

He couldn't figure out how the editor-in-chief wanted to leave the orange instead of himself?

Knock knock!

Knocking on the table heavily, Tangerine's face suddenly became gloomy, and she reprimanded: "What are you arguing about, what are you arguing about? Is it really a vegetable market in the company conference room? If you are willing to have a meeting, you will stay, if you are not willing to have a meeting, give me a meal as soon as possible!"
