Chapter 0021: Finalized
After talking about the three plans, Zeng Wei asked Su Shaohua to contact his leader.
For Su Shaohua, Zeng Wei has some memories, he later seemed to be the president of the magazine "Ancient Legends", but that was a long time later, what is his identity in the magazine now, Zeng Wei doesn't know, but judging from his words and deeds, he is not a big leader who can make up his mind.
Su Shaohua stood up, Zeng Wei thought he would ask where to call, but saw him take out a "big brick" from the briefcase he was carrying, which made Zeng Wei's eyes light up.
Since the world's first real mobile phone was born in New York in 1973, mobile phones have been on the road to slimming, but in the eyes of later generations, its image of the first 20 years is just a "big brick".
The mobile phone, which is close to the modern shape, was born in 1987. It still weighs about 750 grams, which is nothing short of terrifying compared to today's phones, which only weigh 60 grams.
Since then, the slimming of mobile phones has become more and more rapid, but in the eyes of Zeng Wei, a reborn person in later generations, it is still a big brick.
Motorola was the first to enter the Chinese mobile phone market, and it once monopolized the Chinese mobile phone market with an absolute advantage. Most of the mobile phones in this era of digital mobile phones are products of Motorola. I remember watching the Hong Kong and Taiwan movies of the year, there were many big bosses on it, and there was a person with a mobile phone by his side, which could even be used as a weapon on necessary occasions.
At this moment, the Motorola 3200 that Su Shaohua is holding probably belongs to this category. Looking at its huge fuselage and huge antenna, Zeng Wei felt that where was this telephone, it was simply a murder weapon.
However, Zeng Wei felt that Su Shaohua was flattering to the blind man - blind feelings.
That's right, at this time, Big Brother is a luxury product, after all, it takes one or two thousand to buy it, which can even improve the quality in the shopping mall, but Zeng Wei feels that Su Shaohua has no need to take out this thing to show off here, because at this time, Qili Township has not built a signal base station at all, and he, the big brother, is completely a decoration, useless, at most, it is used as a brick to smash people.
………………
Sure enough, soon Su Shaohua turned his head to Zeng Wei with an embarrassed face and said, "That...... Sanshao, you don't have a signal here?"
Zeng Wei was also bad, pretending to be at a loss, and said, "No, I don't know, why don't you look for it?"
"Looking for it?" Su Shaohua was stunned for a moment, then looked at the mobile phone in his hand, and involuntarily walked a few steps in the yard. However, he quickly reacted, in such an empty space, how could he find the signal after walking a few steps?
However, looking at Zeng Wei's innocent appearance, Su Shaohua was not sure, and in desperation, he had to ask, "Can you use a mobile phone here?"
Zeng Wei couldn't hold back a smile and said seriously: "I don't know, anyway, I haven't seen anyone use it before." Of course, it could also be that we are too poor here for anyone to afford. ”
Hearing this, Su Shaohua didn't know that the behavior he had just shown off made the young master in front of him unhappy. He hurriedly put away the phone and said, "Sanshao, where can I call?"
Zeng Wei then pointed out: "In our village, only the village committee has a telephone, if you want to call the leader, you can only go somewhere." Or you can go to the township office, where you can also make a phone call. ”
………………
Under the leadership of Zeng Wei, the two went to the village committee. Su Shaohua went to make a phone call, while Zeng Wei waited in the courtyard of the village committee.
Su Shaohua's movements were very fast, and it was over in about three or five minutes, and he came out and went back to Zeng's house with Zeng Wei.
After sitting down, Su Shaohua said: "Sanshao, I have already asked the leader for instructions just now, and we accept your third plan." ”
For the other party's choice, Zeng Wei was mentally prepared. The three plans he came up with, in the eyes of the people of "Ancient Legends" magazine, are one upper, middle and lower three strategies, of course, for Zeng Wei himself. And in the position of the magazine "Ancient Legends", it is necessary to look at it the other way around, which are the lower policy, the middle policy and the upper policy.
The first plan, the other party is the least likely to accept it, because the manuscript fee standard is too high, as for the operation plan that comes with it, although he said that he can double the sales of the other party, but it is his own family's words, and the other party is impossible to believe.
After all, he is just a child, it is good to be able to write novels, and he can also run a business, and he even said that he can double the sales of a large magazine that sells a million copies in a single issue, and the joke is not like this.
As for the second plan, it is a middle policy for both parties, and for the magazine "Ancient Legends", the buyout price of 120 yuan per thousand words is still a bit too high, especially the word count of this "Sou Shen Ji" is as high as 1.6 million words.
After all, for 1993, a novel written by a child less than ten years old earned nearly 200,000 yuan, which is somewhat too appalling.
However, the third plan, for the "Ancient Legends" magazine, is the most advantageous plan, and it is the best policy.
According to their estimates, the sales of "Ancient Legends" magazine are now almost at a peak, and the possibility of continuing to rise is almost zero. Even, with the change of the magazine from bimonthly to monthly, sales may have declined.
In this way, it means that they will always pay Zeng Wei at the price of 80 yuan per thousand words, which is completely the agreement they reached before.
When Su Shaohua called, the leader even jokingly said that Zeng Wei, this kid, was sensible and gave them a good step.
………………
In fact, after Zeng Wei learned of the other party's choice, his heart was also happy.
The three plans he came up with were all the best policies in his mind. If you really want to choose one of these three strategies, the first one is undoubtedly the lower policy, and the third is the best policy.
The first plan seems to be the highest remuneration, but in Zeng Wei's opinion, it is not a good choice. He knows very well that with the change of "Ancient Legends" magazine from a bimonthly to a monthly magazine, its sales will not decline, but will usher in a rapid increase.
In 1998, the magazine had a monthly circulation of 3.2 million copies, and in this case, the magazine changed from a monthly to a semi-monthly magazine, and the circulation did not fall as expected, but rose to 4.5 million copies.
Especially under the accompanying operating plan, this increase will be even greater. Zeng Wei's doubling of sales is a doubling of normal sales. He estimates that under his operation plan, by the end of this year, the sales of "Ancient Legends" can reach about 3 million copies in a single issue. If this is calculated according to his third plan, he will be able to get a manuscript fee of 280 yuan for 1,000 words.
Zeng Wei is very optimistic about the sales of the magazine "Legend of the Ancients", after all, in the next few years, the country will usher in the most rapid growth period since the founding of the People's Republic of China, coupled with the increasingly open social background, and in the absence of strong competitors, the monthly circulation of the "Legend of the Ancients" magazine reaches four or five million copies is not much pressure, after all, China's market is too big.
This means that Zeng Wei can get a remuneration of about 400 yuan for 1,000 words, and he can get a remuneration of about 600,000 yuan for a novel.
As for the second plan, in Zeng Wei's opinion, although it is the least manuscript fee, it is not the worst choice, and it is not even worse than the third plan of the best policy, after all, he can get nearly 200,000 at once.
Although this figure seems to be two or three times less than that of the third plan, it will take three or four years to get that much manuscript fee in the third plan. With so much time, Zeng Wei can make more money with the nearly 200,000 yuan.
As a reborn, Zeng Wei still has this confidence.
………………
The two parties reached an agreement, and the next step was to sign the contract.
But at this time, the problem came again, that is, Zeng Wei is only 8 years old now, he is a minor, and obviously he cannot sign a contract. Therefore, if you want to sign a contract with the magazine "Ancient Legends", it needs to be signed by his guardian.
So, Su Shaohua asked Zeng Wei to call the parents back and complete the contract procedures.
Zeng Wei hesitated.
My parents are at home today.
Because today is Sunday, my father has also come back to help with the work, and he will not take the car back to the city until the afternoon.
But if you call your parents back, won't the matter of writing a novel by yourself be exposed?
However, Zeng Wei did not hesitate too much and quickly made a decision.
It is necessary to call the parents back to sign the contract in order to avoid the legality of the contract being questioned in the event of a dispute in the future.
After all, according to this contract, Zeng Wei is almost certain that "Sou Shen Ji" will get a jaw-dropping remuneration in the near future, and if the magazine denies this contract on the grounds that Zeng Wei is a minor and cannot sign a contract, it will be troublesome.
What's more, now that there is a predicament at home, letting parents know about this contract can be regarded as a way to break the current predicament of the family, after all, they can use the money they earn in a bright way. This not only solves the dilemma of the family's current shortage of funds, but can even carry out their next plan.
Since he knew that next year's meat prices would usher in a wave of skyrocketing, Zeng Wei naturally didn't want his family to just raise the dozen or so piglets produced by his own sows, so that he could take this opportunity to expand the scale and make more money at that time.
So, Zeng Wei beckoned Su Shaohua to sit at home, and he went to the field to call his parents home.
