Chapter 49: Send Me Money

After Hu Yidao returned to the office, he sat there with a sad brow.

He was thinking about how to tell Xiaobei that the phone call was not easy to make when it came to the matter of manuscript fees.

Although he thinks that Xiaobei's book is good, PK will definitely not lose, and the manuscript fee will definitely increase.

But, no matter what, he obviously promised a good thing, and suddenly wants to regret it now, and his credibility is completely gone.

What to do?

He was distressed, and at this time, Xiao Li, a female subordinate in his department, walked to his office in a hurry.

As soon as he walked in, he complained loudly: "Brother Hu, why did Mr. Ye suddenly ask to change the content of the magazine, now our magazine is finally getting a little better, and it is time to strike while the iron is hot." However, it's better now, don't say anything, you have to change the content inside, and the sales in the next period will drop sharply, who will be responsible. ”

Xiao Li is very similar to his temper, and he speaks straightforwardly, and it doesn't take long for him to explain the truth of the matter.

It turned out that Xiao Li was just about to arrange the content of the next issue of the magazine, when Mr. Ye's secretary suddenly came over, and the secretary didn't say anything, so he directly ordered Xiao Li arrogantly, asking her to remove Xiao Bei's novel in the next issue.

This caught Xiao Li off guard, and it was difficult to refute it directly, so he came to complain to Hu Yidao.

Hu Yidao was also speechless after hearing this.

He knew about it, because he had just promised it personally.

Originally, he was going to announce it at the meeting tomorrow, but he didn't expect President Ye to be so urgent.

"But fortunately, the novel that Mr. Ye asked to replace is also good, it was written by Mr. Huang Longyu, and the quality must be acceptable, but I didn't expect Mr. Huang to not serialize novels in magazines for many years, and this time he suddenly made an exception. ”

"However, isn't it a little bad for us to do this, Xiaobei's "Dragon Babu" serialized has received a good response, which has contributed to the sales of our magazine. Moreover, will readers have an opinion on such a change in content?"

Xiao Li didn't notice Hu Yidao's face, and he kept talking there.

"What do you say? The author of the next novel, Mr. Ye, said that it was Huang Longyu?"

Hu Yidao was taken aback when he heard Xiao Li say this, and hurriedly asked.

Xiao Li's reaction to Hu Yidao was a little strange, but he still said: "Yes, it is said that Mr. Huang's novel can give us a chapter in the afternoon, let us arrange it better, I didn't come to discuss it with Brother Hu." ”

"Damn. ”

Hu Yidao understood what was going on, and he scolded angrily.

Xiao Li looked inexplicable, and was about to ask, but Hu Yidao ignored her, directly picked up the mobile phone on the desk and rushed out of the office.

Hu Yidao kept blaming himself on the road, why didn't he think of this just now?

I only worry about the manuscript fee and forget the most important thing.

Since Mr. Ye proposed that VIPs compete with Xiaobei PK, the most important key point is the competitive candidate.

Xiaobei's novel is certainly good, and even excellent.

However, compared to Huanglongyu, it is a little worse.

It's not that the quality of Xiaobei's books is not as good as Huang Longyu's, Xiaobei's novels may be better than Huang Longyu's.

However, Huang Longyu, as a veteran martial arts novelist, already has a high status in the hearts of readers, and the quality of the book itself is definitely not bad, in comparison, he naturally has a great advantage.

This Huang Longyu is also, he is a dignified six-star artist writer, and he actually lowered his face to compete with an intern artist, and he doesn't want his old face for decades.

He must have held a grudge because of his appreciation of the promotional slogan of Xiaobei's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", as well as the poems that Xiaobei would scold him that night.

Hu Yidao is now the real worry, Xiaobei may lose.

Hu Yidao angrily trotted to Ye Liang's office, and it happened that there was someone inside, so he waited patiently outside for a while.

As soon as the man departed, he went in without knocking.

"Mr. Ye, it's too much for you to do this, you actually asked Mr. Huang to write a novel to PK with Xiaobei, this is outrageous, the two of them are not at the same level at all, this is not fair at all. ”

Hu Yidao was so angry that when he spoke, he didn't care that Ye Liang was his boss.

Regarding Hu Yidao's impoliteness, Ye Liang didn't care.

He was not in a hurry, put down the documents in his hand first, and seemed to have expected that Hu Yidao would have such an overreaction, and said confidently: "What's unfair, Huang Longyu is a six-star artist, and the remuneration he gets is about 1,000 signatures, and you give Xiaobei so much, since his manuscript fee is as high as that of a six-star artist, then he should also show the strength he wants." ”

Ye Liang's words were the words he had prepared a long time ago, and they were said seamlessly.

"You ......" Hu Yidao had nothing to say for a while.

"Since you think Xiaobei's novel is not good, then let the manuscript fee be reduced, this time it will be reduced by two-thirds, then I will talk to Huang Longyu, and I will not hesitate to serialize it. Ye Liang said.

"No way. Hu Yidao flatly refused.

"Then you can only let Huang Longyu come out. ”

The two of them were tugging back and forth in the office until Ye Liang went out for a meeting, but there was still no result.

Hu Yidao walked out of the office, very depressed, he understood that this time the PK competition between Xiaobei and Huang Longyu was inevitable.

He walked to a corner, rubbed his sore head, resolutely picked up his mobile phone, and called Xiaobei to explain the matter.

The sooner you say something, the better, otherwise there will be misunderstandings and more trouble.

He decided that if Xiaobei really lost, then he would make up for the lost manuscript fee, and the recent bonus plus the continuation should be enough, and if it really doesn't work, he will borrow some more.

At this time, Wu Xiaotian was writing some ideas about online live broadcast on the computer.

This time is different from the one given to Qin Cheng last time, this time it is more specific and detailed.

The company he and Wei Ran opened has been registered, and now they officially need a complete planning plan.

He wrote this plan with the memory of his previous life and the experience of doing live game broadcasts on TV stations during this time.

was distressed by a live broadcast content, and Hu Yidao's call came.

"Hey, Brother Hu. ”

Wu Xiaotian left his seat, walked outside the office, picked up the phone, and greeted him first.

"Hey, Xiaobei, Brother Xiaobei, are you busy?"

When Hu Yidao heard Wu Xiaotian's voice, he completely lost the excitement of the first few phone calls, and replaced it with a spit.

Wu Xiaotian also heard it, he also felt a little strange, and asked: "Brother Hu, is there something wrong with you over there? Is the manuscript of the novel "Tianlong Babu" used up? Don't worry, I will write it to you when I go back tonight." ”

As soon as Hu Yidao heard Wu Xiaotian's words, he became even more uncomfortable.

However, he knows that long pain is better than short pain.

So, he made Ye Liang's proposal, his difficulties, and the ins and outs of the matter clear.

Wu Xiaotian was stunned for a long time after hearing this.

To say that he doesn't have an opinion on Hu Yidao is false.

However, after thinking about it, this matter is indeed not something that Hu Yidao can stop, and he can understand Hu Yidao's difficulties in his position.

Moreover, Mr. Ye of the Legend Publishing House, his request is to compete with Huang Longyu for PK?

This, he is not afraid, using this to calculate him, Ye Liang will only move stones at his feet.

What about Huang Longyu's novels? What about six-star artists and writers? In the end, it is the content of the novels that determines sales.

The last "Legend of the Condor Heroes" was serialized on the forum and sold well in the entity, which made Wu Xiaotian know that the readers' tastes in this world are similar to those on the earth.

Huang Longyu's novel is good, but compared to Master Jin Yong's, he still checked more than that.

The manuscript fee will be increased by half, and that is 1500 signatures.

Well, it just so happens that the company is short of money when it starts to operate, which is clearly the rhythm of sending money to me.

Wu Xiaotian listened to Hu Yidao's nervous panting on the other side of the phone, and knew that he was also unhappy in his heart.

So, he smiled and said, "Brother Hu, I agree with this proposal, you Mr. Ye are too good, this is obviously sending me money." ”
