164. There are so many troublesome things
"Obviously, they rely on their talents to eat, and this group of people is not reasonable at all. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
threw the takeaway lunch box into the trash can, and at the end, Ning Yue, who was standing behind Ning Xue, added another force and smashed the previous lunch box.
It's just a short meal, and when they go over to look at it again, they find that the wind direction on the Internet has changed abruptly.
Two of the top 20 real-time hot search words on Weibo are related to the Idea Literature Contest.
And the previous wind of criticism and questioning also turned suddenly, although this turn is a bit crooked.
But it is clear that the purpose of the two magazines, "Time" and "Literature and Art", has been achieved.
As the most timely news update of Weibo, it can only be said to be a source, and there will definitely be many people who will come out to advocate for the idea literature contest twice, plus the active publicity of some portal websites and traditional newspaper media.
They can already imagine how the popularity of the Idea Literature Contest will rise.
The number of participants will definitely rise next year.
Speaking of immediate benefits, the sales of the next special issue of the magazine will definitely increase significantly, and the sales of the collection of winning works of the contest that is being prepared will not be bad.
"Obviously, you can rely on your looks to eat, but our family's Ning Xue and Ning Yue rely on their talents to eat, so it's even more cute. Cheng Yun said with a smile.
"Go, go, who's from your family. Ning Xue and Ning Yue retorted in disgust.
Cheng Yun was about to tease two more sentences, when the mobile phone screen that Ning Xue put on the table suddenly lit up, vibrated on one side, and the prelude to "The Older You Grow, the Lonelier You Become".
"There is a phone ......," Cheng Yun said.
Ning Xue stepped on the shiny floor and slid over, and the screen showed a strange call from Haicheng.
In addition to Ning Wan, there are only two magazines left who know their contact information, and of course it is not excluded that they are some intermediary companies.
"Hey ......"
Ning Xue answered the phone and was interrupted as soon as she spit out a word.
"Hello, is it Su Ningxue and Su Ningyue?" was a kind male voice.
Well, it's definitely the people from the magazine.
Ning Xue replied, "Well, yes. ”
"Great!" The person on the phone over there let out a sigh of relief, and he couldn't help but hear a little nervousness, and he continued to report his identity, "Student Su, I am Wei Heming, the editor-in-chief of Literature and Art Magazine. ”
This nervous attitude made Ning Xue and Ning Yue inexplicable.
In fact, what they didn't know was that after seeing that the discussion about the two of them on the Internet was far more heated than expected, Wei Heming and Huang Fan, editor-in-chief of "Time", paid more attention to them.
After laughing and praising each other, the two left one after another.
Wei Heming walked slowly, and when he was calling, he thought that Huang Fan had been contacted first, but who knew that this call would be connected.
He was naturally very happy, as for what happened to Huang Fan, it didn't matter to him.
"Is it from the magazine?" asked Cheng Yun in a whisper beside him.
Ning Xue nodded lightly, and then showed a thoughtful look.
On the other side of the phone, Wei Heming continued: "That's the case, classmate Su, I'll get straight to the point, our "Literature and Art" hopes with great sincerity that we can sign an exclusive contract with classmate Su and you for three years, and classmate Su doesn't have to worry about the manuscript fee, a thousand words, and it is also a very good level in the industry." ”
The editor-in-chief of the magazine personally invited him, and the sincerity naturally went without saying.
The manuscript fee of 1,000 words is not the top in the industry in this world, but it is also more than the average level.
Ning Xue and Ning Yue only came out of the literary contest - Wei Heming did not know that they had also written "She and Her Cat" and "Lingzhu" - although the works were widely acclaimed, they were only short stories after all, and it was still a mystery whether they could master the creation of novels.
Wei Heming felt that the conditions he had offered were already very high.
It's really straight to the point.
Ning Xue thought to herself.
I jokingly told Sister Cheng Yun before that she wanted to dry "Time" and "Literature and Art", and she planned to do the same.
Of course, it's not that they're sulking because of the hype about them, but they don't want to tie themselves to a certain magazine.
"Time" and "Literature and Art" signed exclusive contracts for a certain number of years for the winners of the Thought Literature Contest, although the treatment is good, but the words years and exclusivity are not what Ning Xue and Ning Yue like.
They will sign an exclusive agreement with Rice Music Network because Rice Music has no rivals in independent music, and there are few restrictions on signed artists.
Another reason is that they don't know much about this aspect of things, and signing a contract is not as simple as verbally saying to Wei Heming, which requires a good consultation with Sister Cheng Yun.
So Ning Xue politely refused: "Thank you very much for the invitation, but we can't make a decision on this kind of thing immediately, and we have to discuss it with our family." ”
Wei Heming said: "Well, no problem, of course this kind of thing has to be thought about, if Su has any ideas, you can put it forward directly, and I will wait patiently for Su to make a decision." ”
After a few more words with Wei Heming, Ning Xue hung up the phone.
She looked at Sister Cheng Yun helplessly, hey, this way of chatting is really tiring.
Just as she was about to sit down, her phone rang again.
This look is still a call from Haicheng.
I guess it was from Time magazine.
"Hey, is it Teacher Gu Yu?"
Of course, "Time" knows that the snow is Gu Yu.
"Well, I am. Ning Xue replied in a friendly tone as much as possible.
"Great, I'm Huang Fan, the editor-in-chief of Time. It wasn't until yesterday at the award ceremony that I saw Mr. Gu Yu's true face, which was really surprising, Mr. Gu Yu not only wrote a good article, but also looked like a first-class ......"
As soon as he came up, Huang Fan began to make friends, there was no way, when he called just now, he kept prompting that the line was busy, and he knew that Wei Heming had already taken the lead.
Although I don't know what conditions Wei Heming's side has, since they have crossed paths with Gu Yu on their side, they have to make good use of this relationship.
“…… Sign a contract for three years, a thousand words and a thousand ......"
After Huang Fan gave the chips on his side, Ning Xue couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
I don't know if the two of them have paid in advance or what, I guess it's just a coincidence.
After Ning Xue was silent for a while, she sent Huang Fan away for the same reason.
"Hey, that's a nuisance. ”
With little hands on their cheeks, Ning Xue and Ning Yue looked at Cheng Yun in distress.
The two eyes fell motionlessly on Cheng Yun's face, and it lasted like this for more than a minute, and Cheng Yun, who was dotting on the mobile phone screen, raised his head and said: "There will be more trouble, I estimate that there will be calls from other magazines in the future, and you are busy." ”
"Uh......h There is no way to do it, if it weren't for the two places for free admission, we wouldn't have participated in the competition. Ning Xue said.
Then Ning Yue suddenly leaned over and asked Sister Cheng Yun, "Sister Cheng Yun, what are you playing?"
"Oh, a game. Cheng Yun replied.
