Chapter 135: The Intention of the Website

After guessing these things, Chen Ming is not too worried, this "Legend of the Condor Heroes" has not signed a contract with the website yet, and what to do depends on what contract the website will give him this time.

In the past, several book websites signed electronic copyrights, that is, websites can use the signed novels to charge, in addition to electronic copyrights, half of the income from publishing physical novels will also be distributed to the website.

As for the film and television copyright and game copyright, it is directly left to the author, so the contract is very conscientious.

So in the past, his cooperation with the website was very pleasant, both parties got what they wanted, and Chen Ming didn't want to leave the largest martial arts novel website "Chivalry in the World" when it was not necessary.

Thinking about this, Chen Ming sent a message back to the swordsman, asking him to tell the upper echelons of the website to make an appointment in the afternoon to talk about the contract of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

Putting down the mobile phone, and quickly finished drinking the porridge in the bowl, Chen Ming went to Xu Xiaomei's room again.

Xu Xiaomei's complexion was a lot ruddy after drinking a bowl of porridge, and asked Chen Ming to serve her a bowl, Xu Xiaomei didn't feel embarrassed when she asked for a second bowl, anyway, she was in a special situation, and she couldn't eat it.

After serving Xu Xiaomei another bowl of porridge, Chen Ming himself was full of food and drink, and called Wei Tao, saying that it was possible to discuss the contract with "Chivalrous World" in the afternoon, and let Wei Tao prepare.

After getting these things done, Chen Ming continued to sit in front of the computer and code words.

It's important to save the manuscript, for example, he may not have time to write a novel that day, so saving it can avoid accidents.

He wrote a novel here, and after Xu Xiaomei felt that his body had regained his strength, he began to practice internal skills in the room, if he didn't follow the method of light dance magic today, then all his previous efforts would be in vain.

……

In a high-rise building in Tianhai City.

This is the headquarters of "Chivalry in the World", and the swordsman did not rush to report when he received Chen Ming's news, because it was now the noon break, and his leader was definitely not in the company.

After waiting for almost an hour, he told the leader that Chen Ming planned to sign the contract.

The company really attached great importance to Jingu, which was the most powerful in the limelight this year, and immediately held a small meeting after hearing the news to discuss how to sign this contract.

And the swordsman is also one of the members of the meeting.

After knowing the news of the meeting, the swordsman said "sure enough" in his heart, it seems that he guessed correctly, you must know that the contracts signed in the past were in accordance with the company's standard contracts, and now there is a meeting for the contract signed for the book "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", something will definitely happen.

Yesterday, a big guy specially informed him not to recommend Jin Gu's new book first, and today he will come up with a specific attitude.

There were ten people in the conference room, including editors and shareholders, and the meeting was presided over by Yang Xin, one of the company's six founders.

"Now that you know the topic of this meeting, let's talk freely. Yang Xin, who was sitting on the main seat, spoke.

"I think the contract for Jin Gu's book should be the same as before, Jin Gu's achievements are also known to everyone, the first book was a huge success, although it was depressed in the middle, but then "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" once again made him reach the peak, I think such a new author has not produced one for several years. What's more, he writes books very quickly, and he can also ensure the quality, and if this state is maintained for another year or two, he will definitely become one of the top gods of the website, so I don't think we should change any contract at this time, in case Jin Gu goes to other websites, then we will lose a lot. The person who spoke was the company's editor-in-chief, the leader of the swordsman.

"Editor Lin, have you forgotten what happened last time? Our magazine has already printed all his novels, but I didn't expect him to take advantage of the danger at this time and sign a contract that was very beneficial to him. I admit that he writes well, but now he can do such a thing, and if he becomes the top god of the website in the future, then everything will follow him. ”

The swordsman glanced up, and the woman who spoke was in her thirties, Zhang Rong, the leader who was in charge of serializing magazines, who was originally equivalent to a transparent existence in the company, but a year ago she relied on "Amorous Swordsman Ruthless Sword" to create a sales record, and her status in the company soared.

The swordsman sneered at Zhang Rong's words, and printed "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" in the magazine without Jin Gu's consent, and even vigorously publicized it, which was originally an infringement, Jin Gu was already very kind without being held responsible, and the profits earned by the magazine from Jin Gu's novels were tens of millions, and the little manuscript fee given to Jin Gu was nothing.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that Zhang Rong's words made many people nod in agreement.

The editor-in-chief frowned.

The swordsman immediately figured out the reason, it was not that these people here did not understand who was right and who was wrong in this matter, but that they had already understood the meaning of the upper echelons of the company.

The next discussion swordsman can guess the ending without listening, for the company, "Xia Xing Tianxia" is the largest martial arts novel website, and there are top five great god authors on the website, and he also knows that the website has recently contacted several great writers who do not write novels on the Internet, and there are already several people who are willing to put the new book on the website of "Xia Xing Tianxia", so for a Jin Gu, although the website attaches importance to it, it has not yet reached the point of inseparability.

As he expected, the topic of the subsequent meeting has completely changed to "how to properly suppress Jingu without letting Jingu leave the website, so as to obtain the maximum profit for the company." And "Can you get the film and television copyright of "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang", and if so, how should you do it?"

As for the contract, I basically didn't have much to do with it, and I thought I had planned it for a long time.

Looking at everyone's discussion, the swordsman shook his head, among these people in the company, he was the one who had the most contact with Jin Gu, and naturally knew that Jin Gu had always been very confident in his works, and he would definitely not let these people on the website get his wish easily.

He couldn't control such a thing, so the swordsman simply decided not to speak.

……

When Chen Ming was coding words, the mobile phone suddenly rang, the number Chen Ming didn't know, and after answering it, he realized that the phone was called by someone from the website to discuss the contract with him.

Chen Ming immediately made an appointment with the other party, and then called Wei Tao again, asking him to take the lawyer team to negotiate the contract, and call him if there was anything.

After that, he made another call to the swordsman.

"Brother Liu, what's the situation this time?" Chen Ming still remembered that the swordsman's surname was Liu.

"The contract may be a bit unoptimistic, so be prepared. The swordsman said.

"I was mentally prepared when you sent me that message, but is the website really going to target me, a martial arts author who is likely to become a pillar?" Chen Ming was still a little strange about this.

"If it was before, it might not be, but now there are several martial arts authors who write paper books who are interested in writing novels on the website, and the website resources must be tilted towards the works of these great writers. But don't worry too much, as long as your book can make money, the website will not ignore it. Finally, the swordsman enlightened him.

"It's okay, Brother Liu, if you have the chance, would you like to work with me?" Chen Ming said with a smile.
