Chapter 131, tens of millions of manuscript fees

It's an important day in March.

The manuscript fee for Ye Kai's three books is about to be distributed.

The sales of Langya Bang did not exceed that of Xianjian, which is a pity for Zhou Kaiwen. He can see from this film that Ye Kai's control of pen power has improved linearly.

But most lovers of traditional books don't really like this one.

So Ye Kai's specific readers are still those fans, only they will not care about any story genre, and buy this book purely to support Ye Kai.

And Ye Kai didn't know what was going on, he didn't participate in all the publicity, and it didn't matter how much money he made. Not a single book has been written since this travelogue was issued.

The assistant walked into the office with the document and said to Zhou Kaiwen, "Editor-in-chief, Mr. Ye's three-month share has been checked again, is it sent to him now?"

"Send it. ”

Ye Kai is not one of those ordinary authors, it is better not to default on manuscript fees, especially in a special period like this.

The total manuscript fee in these three months is as high as more than 9 million, the most important of which are Langya Bang and the travelogue that unexpectedly became popular in the photography circle, and the popularity of Xianjian has dropped.

The assistant nodded and walked towards the finance room.

Zhou Kaiwen rubbed his temples, according to Ye Kai's writing speed, it is impossible to write at all now. Do you want to work with other publishers? Someone is poaching me?

His hand stopped suddenly.

They only give Ye Kai 12 percent in royalties, while most best-selling authors are more than 15 percent. It is very likely that Ye Kai gave up Rip culture because of this.

No, Ye Kai can't give it to other publishers.

Their publishing house can be called a top-notch author by Ye Kai alone, if Ye Kai also leaves Rip, it can really be said to be a street company, and there may be a herd effect.

The little author may feel that the great gods are gone, is this company going to be cold?

Zhou Kaiwen suddenly made up his mind to make the conditions for Ye Kai's renewal a little more generous.

Add money to him!

At this time, Ye Kai happened to get off the plane in Rongcheng.

The arrival of March drove away the cold winter that had raged in China for many months, and the sun began to radiate warmth in China again, and it is not difficult to see some fashion-conscious women in the airport, wearing stockings and net stockings walking in the airport hall.

Ye Kai was carrying a travel bag, holding a 26-inch suitcase in his hand, and an extremely handsome surfboard on the suitcase, and he looked like he had just returned from abroad.

Although wearing a cap and a mask, the exposed eyes and strong figure still attract the attention of a large number of beautiful women, not to mention that the girls are not lustful, they just hide deeper than you.

While waiting for the taxi, Ye Kai heard someone talking to him.

"Handsome man, where are you going? I have a car to drop you off. ”

Hearing the voice, Ye Kai looked towards his right.

The person who spoke, of course, was a girl with short, silky blond hair and a gleaming white baseball cap. He was wearing a white plush jacket that was not buttoned up, and he could see the slender waist exposed by the cropped underwear.

She must have just returned from out of town, also with a suitcase.

"No need. Ye Kai said, stepping into a taxi that had just driven over.

The girl behind her was still shouting, "Let me send you, can I add a friend?"

Ye Kai didn't care that he had a mask, smiled at the girl and said, "If you have a fate, next time." ”

Closing the door, Ye Kai shouted, "Master, go to a better hotel nearby." ”

"Yes. ”

The familiar Sichuan dialect and the streets are becoming familiar. On the road from the city to Shuangliu Airport, Ye Kai couldn't remember how many times he walked, but he had the same feeling every time.

The mobile phone rang, and it was the arrival message of ICBC.

"Tsk, so much. ”

The manuscript fee of nearly 10 million is the embodiment of Ye Kai's traffic in the previous months. A good book and Ye Kai, who was a little hot at the time, would sell so many copies in three months.

Although Ye Kai was happy, he was far less excited than the 300,000 sent by the system, and he didn't even have the mood of getting 4 million before.

Many rich people are quite right, when you have more money, it's just a number.

After all, as long as the money earned is enough to sustain a living. If you don't pursue luxury, no matter how much you spend it, you won't be able to use up 100,000 yuan a month, and Ye Kai will have 30,000 yuan as long as he changes cities.

Click on WeChat, a large number of messages with a special prompt sound, almost make WeChat stuck.

Ye Kai hadn't been on WeChat for a week, and he found the WeChat account of Rip Culture from it, and sure enough, he had contacted himself many times.

(Ye Dada is not here, have you had a new book recently?)

(We are calculating your manuscript fee in March, about more than eight million, congratulations to Ye Dada)

(............ )

The most recent one was just posted (big, our editor-in-chief Zhou wants to ask you to have dinner together, when do you think you have time?)

Editor-in-Chief Zhou? Doesn't he have my WeChat?

Ye Kai replied, "The manuscript fee has been received, it's hard work." ”

Then I found Zhou Kaiwen in WeChat, he sent more messages, because it was a private WeChat, he sold all kinds of miserably in the chat with Ye Kai, and it looked extremely bleak.

It seemed that Ye Kai would die immediately if he didn't contact him again.

Thinking of being polite when he first saw him, he couldn't imagine that someone like him would sell miserably in front of him, this contrast made Ye Kai feel that this person was quite real.

Finger pressed on the screen and said, "I have returned to China, I should stay in Rongcheng for a while, you have worked hard in the past few months, it should be me to invite you, when to come to Rongcheng, I will invite you to dinner." ”

Zhou Kaiwen's heart tightened when he received Ye Kai's news.

I actually took the initiative to invite myself to dinner, and I didn't say a word for half a month, is it a casual meal? That royalty is not insured, do you want to apply for more before going to Rongcheng?

Ye Kai looked at the balance on his phone, thought about it, and said, "Master, change places and go to the sales department of Tuanjin Garden." ”

Tuanjin Garden is the name of a community, not far from Wuhou Temple, which is actually where Ye Kai used to work.

North Island Imaging is a small studio located in Area B of Cluster Garden. In fact, Beidao Imaging doesn't even have a business license, so what kind of business license do more than a dozen people's personal studios need?

Isn't that a waste of money?

But Ye Kai likes the house here very much, both the orientation and the light are excellent, and he has done everything he can as a commercial house.

There is an artificial river inside the community, and the river meanders through the entire community, dividing the Tuanjin Garden into two areas.

Zone B is where Kitajima Imaging is located, although the environment is good, but the composition is not rigorous, there are many studios, Internet cafes, bars and restaurants in the building.

Area A has stronger security facilities, a larger housing area, and a better service system, but the housing prices are not cheap, and Area B will cost more than 30,000 square meters, and Ye Kai in Area A is not clear.

Ye Kai is going to come over and take a look, and if he can buy a house, he will buy a set here.

It's not that I don't have money, so I can't live with my parents all the time, and what if Saoirse comes in the future? Got it like a bum.

When Ye Kai walked into the sales department, a group of sales ladies didn't react immediately.

But soon, a girl ran to Ye Kai's side and asked, "Hello." ”

"Hello. Ye Kai replied, "I want to see the houses in Area A, whether they have been finely decorated and have not lived in anyone's houses." ”

"Yes, of course. ”

The sales lady smiled like a flower, trotted to find someone to get the key, and said, "Sir, do you have a car?"

"I didn't. ”

She went to borrow a car again, enthusiastically took Ye Kai away to sell the building, looked at Ye Kai carrying so many things, and asked, "I'll help you get the suitcase." ”

"No, I'm not tired. ”

This thing is very light to Ye Kai, and he doesn't feel the force at all, but he is just a little unaccustomed to it. Of course, holding things in his hands is not as comfortable as empty-handed, but Ye Kai also doesn't want others to help him carry things.

Do unto others as you would have them do to you.

Although she is a girl, she drives unexpectedly steadily.

On the way, in addition to introducing the house, he didn't ask Ye Kai any other questions, which made Ye Kai feel more comfortable and relaxed.

With the increase of talent, the improvement of appearance is the most obvious. Because the face and body are the first thing that others can feel when they see you.

After all, it's the first time we've met, and no matter how much you have the connotation, you can't see it with your eyes. At most, it can be said that there is some temperament, but the appearance is not enough, and the temperament is useless.

But this damn appearance makes Ye Kai miserable, there are often people who talk to each other in different ways, and when he goes to the bar at night, he has to pull Di Nan or others, and he doesn't dare to go to the bar alone.

If someone is guaranteed to learn from Saoirsa, they will get Ye Kai drunk first.

About fifteen minutes later, the sales lady stopped the car.

"This is Area A of Tuanjin Garden, Mr. ”

"Don't be expensive, surnamed Ye. ”

"Okay, Mr. Ye, we have 1234 types of houses, may I ask what type of houses you would like to see first. Now we have the best selling house under 90 square meters......"

She introduced all four types of apartments.

"Let's take a look at the three-house first. Ye Kai said.

The two houses are too small for him, Ye Kai likes to read very much, and hopes to have a separate study of his own. Forget about the small study, he wants to transform the bedroom into a study.

"Okay, there is a three-bedroom house here, and it is the well-decorated house that Mr. Ye wants to see. ”

Area A is very green, and as the name of this neighborhood is, a beautiful garden. I just didn't know that there weren't many bugs in the summer.

There should be no need to think about this problem, and there should be regular pest control in places with such high housing prices.

Take the elevator to the ninth floor.

The corridors are in the shape of a line, about five or six meters long, and there is an anti-theft door at the end.

Is there one floor and two units in one unit?

The sales lady opened the security door on the right, which was not very luxuriously decorated, and it was a very common European minimalist style. In general, Ye Kai is very satisfied, the original study can be used as a studio, processing photos and work.

The three-bay room faces south, and the area for the living room and dining room is also large.

That's it.
