Chapter 6: We're Making Money Too

Wu Shulan has been very irritable recently, firstly, her relationship is not very smooth, and secondly, her work is not very smooth. It's okay to talk about things at work, after all, before she took over the small newspaper from her grandfather, she already realized that this job is not easy to do.

Not to mention that the funds are not sufficient, the management cannot keep up, the employees have a loose work attitude, and the sensitivity to the news is not enough. However, in her opinion, it would be good to just replace the batch again.

But the emotional top ...... She couldn't figure out why her mother was wrong with her tendons, and she kept holding the idea of letting her fly on the branches and become a phoenix, and changed her ways all day long to introduce her to the rich second generation.

Seeing those 'handsome and rich' who are gentle and elegant on the surface, but secretly steal men and prostitutes, she feels tired in her heart. If it's a rich second generation who really has the ability, it's just that, but if the person is really capable, will he sell his feelings casually?

Even if she sells it, she has to sell it for a good price, right? In addition to her appearance, is there anything else that can be coveted by others? But if it is only because of her appearance, then she will feel even more ridiculous, Xiangjiang may lack everything, but she has never lacked beautiful women.

What she wants is romance, love, not those interests. Although the Wu family is not a super wealthy family, how can it squeeze into the third rate!

Is it necessary to slap in with those who don't know how to learn?

However, her mother just wouldn't let her go. has already changed places to live in two places, and her 'supernatural' mother can actually be found, what the hell.

Just got rid of her mother's intermittent 'harassment', Wu Shulan trotted out of a café, but as soon as she got out of the door, she bumped into someone.

"Ahh

Two coquettish voices, and then a flood of manuscript paper. One of the beautiful figures exclaimed and bent down to pick up the papers, as if they were afraid that if a gust of wind blew, the papers would be blown away.

Wu Shulan was stunned, secretly praising this woman's appearance and temperament, and at the same time, she also bent down to pick up the paper on the ground. It's just that she only picked up a few of them, and she was stunned.

"Hey, can you give it back to me?"

Zhao Yazhi frowned, a little annoyed in her heart, and secretly wondered: Why is this person like this? I don't know any politeness, can I be so rude when I look beautiful?

"Ahh ”

"Urban Entertainment News!?"

Zhao Yazhi asked rhetorically, because she hadn't heard of it.

"Maybe you haven't heard of it, because it's just a small tabloid with no name, and there are not 100 or 80 small newspapers like this in Xiangjiang, so don't worry too much. Wu Shulan smiled and said, "But I'm confident that it won't be long before its name will resound throughout the Xiangjiang River!"

"Oh, then I wish you a speedy success!"

Zhao Yazhi smiled slightly, left a blessing and wanted to leave.

"Miss, please wait a minute!" Wu Shulan stopped Zhao Yazhi and wondered: "Have we met somewhere, you seem to be kind!"

"Hello, my name is Zhao Yazhi!" Zhao Yazhi said.

Zhao Yazhi ...... Zhao ...... Have you participated in the Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant?"

"Yes!"

"I see, Miss Zhao, can we sit down and talk?"

"What are you talking about?" Zhao Yazhi wondered.

Wu Shulan pointed to the stack of manuscripts in Zhao Yazhi's hand and smiled: "Just talk about it!"

Zhao Yazhi was slightly stunned and said with a smile: "Your Urban Entertainment Newspaper also serializes novels?"

"There are publications, but they are not very famous. Wu Shulan smiled and said, "Can you let me see the manuscript in your hand? If it's good, I can invite you to write on behalf of the City Entertainment Daily!"

Zhao Yazhi thought for a while, then handed over the manuscript, and then Wu Shulan pulled Zhao Yazhi to leave the café directly, and found another coffee shop to sit down.

Zhao Yazhi was very puzzled, but she didn't ask more, just waited quietly.

Originally, she was still thinking about going to "Ming Pao" for a while, but now that she has this opportunity, let her take a look first. If it doesn't satisfy her, then change it.

In fact, she is still a little reluctant to sell to this "Urban Entertainment Daily", after all, her reputation is not known, even if she gives more money, it will not help Wu Cheng's fame. When writing a novel, the most important thing is fame, as long as you have fame, you will not be uninterested in writing anything in the future.

That's why she thought of Ming Pao for the first time yesterday, not other newspapers.

Although Wu Shulan studied abroad, she grew up in Xiangjiang after all, and she still has the ability to appreciate novels. Although this novel is not a traditional martial arts novel, she thinks this story is indeed quite well told. It's just that it seems a bit taken for granted to want to use this novel to expand the fame of "Urban Entertainment Daily".

"Miss Zhao, the copyright ...... of this novel"

"It's impossible to sell the copyright, and if you want, you can only get the serial copyright. However, it's not that I look down on your Urban Entertainment News, your sales are ......."

"Miss Zhao, don't be too busy refusing yet. The sales of Ming Pao were also pulled up by Mr. Cha's novels one by one. Although this novel is not a martial arts novel, it can be seen that this novel is still very well written, you can try to serialize it. Wu Shulan smiled confidently and said, "Although this Mr. Wu Cheng is a newcomer, I can give him twice the price of a newcomer, if the sales of the newspaper have increased because of his novels, I can continue to increase his remuneration, how about it?"

"What's the price of a newcomer to your newspaper?"

"Twenty in a thousand words!"

This price, for a newcomer, is so-so, writing 3,000 words a day, and there is also an income of 60 yuan, which is higher than the income of ordinary clerks. For Wu Cheng, a small pervert who writes one or two thousand words in the morning, he can earn two or three hundred in one morning, five or six hundred a day, or a month...... It's much higher than her salary.

But thinking of thirty or forty thousand words a day, she was worried that Wu Cheng's little hands would not be able to stand it.

If it was an ordinary person, it might really be unbearable, but Wu Cheng could.

Now it is twice the price of a newcomer, that is, forty words per thousand, so yesterday, Wu Cheng had already earned 800 yuan......

Zhao Yazhi thought for a while and said, "Leave me a contact information! I'll go back and discuss with the original author, and if he wants, I'll contact you again!"

"No problem, Miss Zhao can also leave me a contact information!"

……

In the evening, at the dinner table, Zhao Yazhi asked Wu Cheng, who was holding the rice: "Xiao Cheng, I didn't go to the "Ming Pao" ...... today."

"Oh, it's okay! Take your time!"

"No, listen to me!" Seeing Wu Cheng interrupting her, she couldn't help but look at him with disgust, "That's the case, ...... today" She told what happened at noon today, and finally said: "This matter, I can't make a decision." Although I still think that going to Ming Pao will help you improve your reputation, the remuneration offered by Urban Entertainment is quite attractive. ”

"How come I haven't heard of this newspaper?"

"Tabloids!"

Wu Shulan...... You say, the manager of "Urban Entertainment Daily" is named Wu Shulan?"

"Well, what's wrong?"

“…… Can a woman so young believe it?"

"Judging by her conversation, it shouldn't look like a lie, or I'll check it out tomorrow?"

"That's not necessary, you give me her contact information, and I'll talk to her tomorrow!"

"You're going to talk about it yourself?"

"Sister Zhi doesn't believe me?"

"I can't believe it!" Zhao Yazhi glanced at him and said, "This kind of thing, how can you come with a little child, if you are deceived, what should you do?"

Wu Cheng thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay! Then Sister Zhi will represent me, and sign a contract with her tomorrow! Forty words, see if you can make the sales of "Urban Entertainment Daily" improve. ”

After a pause, Wu Cheng said again: "Otherwise, Sister Zhi, when you sign a contract with her, add an additional clause, and the Urban Entertainment Daily will increase the manuscript fee for every 10,000 copies of the serialized 'Huiming' period...... Well, that's a hundred dollars more than a thousand words! What do you think?"

"You really dare to mention it!" Giggle...... Zhao Yazhi chuckled and said, "Okay! Seeing that you are so confident, I will mention it to you, it depends on whether she is willing to accept it!"

"This is not self-confidence, this is called planning for the rainy day, be prepared!"

"Okay, you have a lot of ideas!"

……

The next morning, Zhao Yazhi took the lawyer to the office of the City Entertainment Daily and signed a contract with Wu Shulan. Regarding the additional conditions proposed by Zhao Yazhi, Wu Shulan was a little speechless, feeling that this author named Wu Cheng was a little unaware of the height of the sky and the thickness of the sky, and he had to make inches.

But thinking of that additional clause, Wu Shulan felt that it didn't seem to be anything. For every 10,000 copies of the newspaper that increase in sales, the newspaper's income will definitely double. Compared to what was paid, it was a drizzle. She wished this novel had that kind of magic!

After signing, Zhao Yazhi gave Wu Shulan an 80,000-word 'Huiming' manuscript and received 3,200 yuan in manuscript fees. I sighed in my heart, Wu Cheng, this kid, really has a little brain. It's only been a few days since I came to Xiangjiang! I actually earned an income that ordinary employees can only earn in two or three months.

When Wu Cheng got the manuscript fee, he couldn't help laughing, jumped up and hugged Zhao Yazhi's neck, the whole person hung on her body, and kissed her on the face excitedly.

At this moment, both of them were a little stunned.

But soon, Zhao Yazhi came back to his senses, stretched out his hand and flicked his head, and said with a smile: "Don't hurry down, my waist is about to break!

Sliding off of her, Wu Cheng touched his head and said with a smile: "Hehe...... Sister Zhi, let's go shopping, eat delicious food, watch movies, ......"

"Don't go!" Zhao Yazhi said with a tiger face: "Save the money, go back to school, and pay for the tuition yourself." If you have money, you will spend it indiscriminately, you are still so young, you want to learn badly!"

"Sister Zhi, how do I think, you are becoming more and more like my mother!"

"Huh, you mean I'm old!?" the goddess crossed her hips, on the verge of exploding.

"No, how is it possible! Sister Zhi is young and unbeatable! I think that in the past few years, there are only four people in this world who can compare to Sister Zhi!"

"Oh, yes, which four, let's hear it!"

"Sinking fish and geese, closing the moon and flowers!"

"Tsk, little monkey, your mouth is quite sweet, you have passed the test! Sister Zhi will cook for you!"
