Chapter 68: Dirty Deals
Ye Chen didn't know what happened after he finished talking to Zhao Qingwei, and he didn't know that Zhao Qingwei had successfully pulled himself to blame!
It's still a top boss!
At this moment, Ye Chen was also confused, about a minute ago, the system that had not appeared for a long time suddenly popped out again.
"Ding! detected that the system released one of the tasks - the 'favor' of the great director. ”
"Mission Description: In the world of entertainment, you are the only overlord!"
"Duration of the mandate: 10 months"
"Mission Completion Rewards: Beginner Screenwriting Skills"
"Task Failure Punishment: Recovering Elementary Presentation Skills" "Oh~ The task came too fast like a tornado! It's really a day! I just talked to Zhao Qingwei on the phone, and the system immediately tailored a task for myself!" Looking at the short task description, Ye Chen was a little worried!
Until now, Ye Chen couldn't figure out what the trigger conditions of the system task were, which was also what Ye Chen was worried about.
What if one day the system issues a mission and wants to fly into the sky and shoulder to shoulder with the sun?
It's no wonder that Ye Chen's brain is big, it's really that the system's several assignments were promulgated when Ye Chen was talking to others, Ye Chen was worried that if the system issued tasks based on the content of the conversation, it would be a lot of fun!
What if it's a dog?
"Please abandon these frivolous speculations and assumptions about irresponsibility to the system, all tasks issued by the system are related to the host's surroundings. ”
Maybe the system couldn't stand Ye Chen's cranky thoughts, and the always cold system also came forward to explain.
Although it was the same cold electronic synthesized sound as always, it finally reassured Ye Chen.
After a busy day's work, Ye Chen was also a little tired, took a shower and fell on the bed, and fell asleep after a long time.
The neon lights of the night in Qingyang City are different from the busyness of the day, and the night has always been the favorite of the city's elite, stimulated by the night and alcohol, unscrupulously venting their stress.
At the moment, in a high-end apartment in Qingyang City.
Zhu Jin sent away the two girls with heavy makeup beside Cheng Ji with a look of disgust, and looked at Cheng Ji, who was full of wine and disheveled on the sofa, and his eyes couldn't help but be a little disgusted.
In fact, Zhu Jin has been thinking about countermeasures since he learned about the sales of "The Da Vinci Code" and "The Da Vinci Code" at the publishing house in the afternoon.
Zhu Jin also figured out the reason why the sales of "The Da Vinci Code" suddenly increased so quickly.
It's just that Zhu Jin never expected that Zheng Wei actually knew Han Cheng, and it seems that the friendship is not shallow, so he can ask Han Cheng to endorse "The Da Vinci Code".
But Zhu Jin is not a person who sits still, and soon Zhu Jin thought of a way.
Don't you have Han Cheng's endorsement? Okay, I'll find a professional book reviewer to endorse "My Sister"!
Even if this person's fame is slightly inferior to Han Cheng, the fame of your "Da Vinci Code" itself is not as good as "The Da Vinci Code"!
In fact, in a hurry, Zhu Jin can only think of this is not a solution, if "The Da Vinci Code" is allowed to sell so much, the fame will become higher and higher, and the higher the fame, the more it will drive sales growth, which is a virtuous circle.
This is not what Zhu Jin wants to see, what Zhu Jin wants is that the sales of "The Da Vinci Code" are far inferior to "The Da Vinci Code", or at least the sales of "The Da Vinci Code" are significantly worse than "The Da Vinci Code", only in this way can it be proved that my Zhu Jin's vision is better than Zheng Wei, and only I, Zhu Jin, become the editor-in-chief can make the future of the publishing house more brilliant!
With an idea, Zhu Jin came to Cheng Ji at this time, after all, Cheng Ji is the author of "Concubine", and it seems more sincere for Cheng Ji to come to that person for help!
In addition, there are other benefits, that is, if Cheng Ji proposes to help, then Zhu Jin himself will not need to owe favors, and Cheng Ji will also thank him for his advice, which can be described as a multiplicity!
It's just that what Zhu Jin never expected was that he saw such a scene as soon as he came, and if he came a little late, he might not know how unbearable it would be.
It's good to say that Cheng Ji is doing this kind of thing when the new book is published now, if this is known by the media in Qingyang City, what will it be?
Zhu Jin suddenly regretted it, wondering if he had bet on the wrong person?
It's just that it's too late to think about these now, and now that he and Cheng Ji are grasshoppers on the same rope, he can only help him clean up this mess.
Glancing at Cheng Ji on the sofa in disgust again, Zhu Jin took a deep breath, took out his mobile phone and made a call, and a smile appeared on his face again.
"Hey, is it Mr. Du Wendu? I'm Zhu Jin, the editor-in-chief of Huayu Publishing House."
"Oh, haha, it turned out to be Editor-in-Chief Zhu, I had a good time working together last time, I don't know what happened to calling myself so late this time?"
Zhu Jin scolded in his heart, last time Zhu Jin signed an author for the publishing house, at that time Zhu Jin was very optimistic about this author's new book, and supported the publication with all his might, but he didn't expect the sales to be dismal after publication, and even during that time Zhu Jin couldn't raise his head in the publishing house, and in a hurry, Zhu Jin found Du Wen, of course, some of the details don't need to be mentioned.
However, after this time, Zhu Jin realized how greedy Du Wen was hidden under the appearance of Dao Ran Sven.
This is also the reason why Zhu Jin doesn't want to call himself.
It is said that people make mistakes, and Zhu Jin didn't expect that he signed two people in a row, and he didn't meet his expectations twice, is it really his own vision?
"No, with Cheng Ji's popularity in Qingyang City, he will never lose to a newcomer who is only in high school!"
Even Zhu Jin didn't notice it, and unconsciously, Zhu Jin only felt that Cheng Ji was better than Ye Chen in popularity.
"Mr. Du, I had a good time working together last time, and I took the liberty to bother this time, because I wanted to cooperate with Mr. Du again!" Zhu Jin only felt that his heart was dripping blood when he said this.
"Haha, Editor-in-Chief Zhu is quick to talk, then let's talk straight, do you need to comment on any recent masterpieces?"
"To tell you the truth, I have a new book that has just been published here and needs your help!"
"Oh? It's actually this one, Editor-in-Chief Zhu, you shouldn't be mistaken, right? I've heard of the author of this book, so I shouldn't need my comments, right?" Du Wen's voice was a little puzzled.
When Zhu Jin heard this, he was also very helpless in his heart, and even felt a little aggrieved!
I wonder too!
I want to fucking ask why!
Who knew that a famous writer would not be able to do more than a seventeen-year-old high school student!
But this is not to say to Du Wen.
"You heard it right, it's this one, and it's nothing else, it's mainly because of your fame, to see if you can rush to the bestseller this year. Zhu Jin flattered.
In fact, Zhu Jin himself knows that what he said is all nonsense, and the reason why Zhu Jin said this is just to reveal a message to Du Wen, that is, looking for you Du Wen this time is not to send charcoal in the snow, but to make you icing on the cake and give Du Wen an illusion, "Sister-in-law" has a good score, and I am looking for you just to add a loss of sales!
The main reason is that Zhu Jin is also afraid, and he was bleeding by this Du Wenkeng last time.
This grandson's asking price is really ruthless!
Sure enough, the purpose of the main entry was achieved, and when Du Wen on the other end of the phone heard Zhu Jin say this, he was a little suspicious of whether Zhu Jin did it on purpose at first, but Du Wen shook his head again.
This person named Cheng Ji is indeed a well-known writer, and the sales will not be bad if he wants to, he should really be rushing to a bestseller, but he is too naïve, how can a bestseller rush if he wants to?
But you can't say this to Zhu Jin, otherwise how can you do business!
"Oh, so that's the case, then I'll wish Editor-in-Chief Zhu in advance that what he wants will come true, since Editor-in-Chief Zhu looks up to me, then I will symbolically collect five Chinese yuan this time!"
After hearing this, Zhu Jin was also relieved, fortunately this grandson was fooled, otherwise he would have to bleed heavily this time.
As for the five Huayuan that Du Wen said, Zhu Jin, who has been taught a long time ago, will certainly not take it seriously, multiplying it by 10,000 times is true!
50,000 Chinese yuan, although it is also a lot of money for Zhu Jin, but as long as he can get the position of editor-in-chief, this amount is worth it!
"This stupid fork, I really believe it!"
"It was a pleasure to work with. Zhu Jin, who thought that the conspiracy had succeeded, said with a smile.
"This idiot still wants to rush to a bestseller!"
"Happy cooperation!" Du Wen, who was consciously scheming, also smiled.
So, two people with evil intentions strike a dirty deal.
