Chapter 20: Calls You Don't Want to Make
Black Tea was excited, and her strong body swayed slightly with a high-pitched voice.
"The company has given you so many resources, opened channels for you, made sound, did promotion, and talked about cooperation for you, we don't mind if you don't want to attend the fan meeting that the company will do for you, but this time, can't you consider the company's ideas?
"Now the market environment is not good, you can make a little money, you can sell the copyright, just be responsible for collecting money, what do you care if he shoots well or not? If the shooting is not good, the audience will scold Dawan, and will not come to scold you. You're not the one who filmed, you just sign it and wait at home for the money to arrive. Why take it so seriously?"
According to the company's point of view, what Black Tea said is not wrong at all, the person who filmed it is not them, and if the shooting is bad, the audience will not be counted on Qidian and Lao Ying.
After listening to it, Lao Ying still disagreed with the company's decision.
At this point, the black tea sighed slightly and told the truth.
"In the past, we were a leading company, but now, we're losing more than 30 percent of our readers, we're losing 40 percent of our traffic, and we're losing 20 percent of our authors. Corporate profits have fallen by 25 percent, and if it continues, the day of layoffs is not far off. ”
"Lao Ying, if it is sold to Dawan, it will become a blockbuster news in the industry, everyone will know that Qidian can make achievements, it can give low-level writers a good way out, and there are excellent works that can be put on the screen. ”
The words were sincere, without the slightest adulteration, and the gloomy expression on his face showed the heaviness in his heart.
Does the company need that extra money?
Very much needed.
They urgently need money to do more promotion, urgently need money to optimize the APP, and recruit more talents to help enterprises tide over the difficulties.
Dawan's single negotiation is completed, and the starting point and the author's copyright fee will be divided in half, and the company will have more than 10 million more liquidity.
Ying Zeyu was silent.
Indeed, the company spent a lot of thought for him.
The marketing and promotion of the book took a lot of effort from the company. Wouldn't it seem too cruel to refuse the company this time?
He didn't dare to look at the black tea, the eyes that lost their brilliance, the arrogance and self-confidence that disappeared from his body, said it all.
In the past, Qidian Company was very famous, and the people who worked in Qidian had a confident and powerful aura.
Now the employees in the company have lost their previous self-confidence, and they are burdened with heavy and endless pressure.
"I'll think about it. ”
Lao Ying lay helplessly on the lazy sofa, thinking about something.
Black Tea stood up excitedly and hurriedly thanked him.
"Thank you. I believe that Qidian and we will be better. The current difficulties are only temporary. ”
Ying Zeyu's words gave him confidence, and he also explained to the general manager after he went back.
As long as there is money, Qidian will definitely get better and better.
The black tea left, Ying Zeyu stared at the phone, a string of phone numbers that he hadn't dialed for a long time, and dialed it......
The voice on the other end of the phone contains vicissitudes, I haven't seen him for a long time, he should be a lot older.
During this time, Gu Xiaoni worked hard and did not miss any opportunity to perform in front of her boss.
took the initiative to do cleaning and express delivery, which made the boss feel the sincerity of her stay.
Without the life of codewords, she has the energy and time at her disposal.
The boss is very satisfied with her current state and does not plan to fire her for the time being.
When she got home in the evening, Gu Xiaoni began to read the book, and prepared the outline of the new book by the way.
Opening the backstage, Gu Xiaoni found that her speed was really too fast, and she had written two books in one year.
What should I write about the new book? Gu Xiaoni made a difficulty.
Let's just write reality into a novel!
Real things are always interesting and vivid to write.
After thinking about it for a long time, Gu Xiaoni decided on the new title of the book "The God of Online Literature is in My Home".
Following the outline template in the document, she began to write and draw in a notebook to prepare an outline for the new book.
Three days after the black tea returned, the head of the IP department of Xingli Film and Television and the head of the IP department of Dawan Pictures informed Qidian Company that Dawan Pictures withdrew from the acquisition of the copyright of the TV series, and Xingli Film and Television would purchase the copyright of "Adventure House Adventure" with 15 million plus 15% of sales (including sponsorship), and Dawan Film and Television would purchase the film copyright of "Adventure House Adventure" at a price of 10 million plus 25% of sales (excluding sponsorship).
This price change surprised the top management of Qidian.
They asked Dawan Pictures why they withdrew from the competition, and the person in charge of Dawan replied that the chairman sent a message asking them to terminate the deal.
As for the reason for the sudden suspension of the chairman, no one knows.
Seeing that Dawan withdrew, the senior management of Qidian had no choice but to sell the copyright to Xingli.
Before filming, Xingli Film and Television had a meeting with Qidian Company to determine the filming matters.
According to the unwritten rules of the industry, Qidian needs to send a team of screenwriters to write the script.
In the screenwriting team, there will be the author of the original work and the editor sent by the company.
They work together to write a script for the director to shoot.
