Chapter 122: Unpleasant Conversation
Ying Feng didn't talk to Zhou Shu for too long, because of the live broadcast, Ying Feng said goodbye early, and Zhou Shu said that he would accompany him tomorrow to meet the representatives of the writers.
Early the next morning, Ying Feng did not go to the crew, but came to Huawen Jinxiu, he came a little early, and first met with Zheng Guotai, and Zheng Guotai briefly talked about the situation of Dong Sen and others.
"Ying Feng, we must find a way to delay time when we negotiate for a while, we can't push out such a large number of authors, and the matter of you becoming a shareholder must be kept secret. Zheng Guotai is still worried about Ying Feng's impulsiveness.
Ying Feng nodded, and then said: "Mr. Zheng rest assured, I will pay attention, since ancient times, literati have been light, and I can deal with them in this regard when the time comes." ”
"Okay, it's good if you have an idea, Zheng Shuang's side is speeding up the progress, but negotiation still requires skills, and the only thing I'm worried about now is that those liaison partner websites will release the news, and it won't be good to introduce other websites to compete. ”
"I think the problem shouldn't be big, whether it's the scale or the number of works, we have an advantage in the readership base, they shouldn't be so irrational, in case they want to introduce competitors, they can directly give them the bottom line, and if they don't cooperate, they will directly interrupt the negotiations, and they don't have no opponents?"
"Okay, that's all we have to do. ”
It didn't take long for Zhou Shu to come to Huawen Jinxiu, "Rebirth, haven't they arrived yet?"
The two met in the conference room on the top floor, Zhou Shu asked directly, Ying Feng shook his head, "Not yet, but it's too fast to think about it, they should be more anxious, and we need to delay time." ”
"Is it delaying time? It seems that Huawen Jinxiu has already had a countermeasure?" Zhou Shu's feeling was keen.
"Yes, with a countermeasure, I think there will be no more problems after the success of the matter, and even if there is, it will be a small part, but it will take time now. ”
"Okay, then we'll drag them along. ”
The two waited for about half an hour, Ying Feng received a call, Dong Sen and others arrived, and were going upstairs, Ying Feng and Zhou Shu said hello, and then the two waited casually.
A few minutes later, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and Dong Sen and the others, who were still received by Editor-in-Chief Feng, entered the office directly, Dong Sen saw Zhou Shu at a glance, "Zhou Shu, aren't you not involved?"
Zhou Shu got up to greet him, "I don't participate in your side, I didn't say that I won't participate in rebirth, this is rebirth." ”
"Oh, it's really young, but young people are still good at being down-to-earth. Dong Sen's words were already very polite, with a tone of lesson.
Ying Feng also got up, the courtesy can not be wasted, after holding his fist, Ying Feng responded: "Shouldn't young people be full of vitality? It is good to be down-to-earth, but it is easy not to make progress and be out of touch with the times, and now is a good time for rapid development!"
"Hehe, it's really unruly, don't think that there are one or two works that are good, just don't know the height of the sky. "When Dong Sen talked to Zheng Guotai yesterday, he was obviously very polite, but when he saw Ying Feng today, he didn't give face at all. The point is, writers don't want to be too much of a conflict with the site, but it's completely different when it comes to winning.
"Two, let's sit down and talk slowly, everything is easy to discuss! Our website has always been writer-oriented, and everyone knows this in their hearts, and in this matter, the website also hopes that you can be calm. Editor-in-chief Feng played a round on the side, and the two sides sat down.
"Dong Lao, everyone is a writer, people's price reduction has nothing to do with you, you can also reduce the price if you have the ability, it is really unreasonable for such a bunch of people to gather together to bully a young man. The atmosphere was very tense, and Zhou Shu spoke at this time.
He is a year younger than Dong Sen, but he is one of the top writers on the website, and the status of both parties is about the same, so he is naturally qualified to say so.
"Zhou Shu, why don't you lower the price?" Dong Sen asked rhetorically.
"Descend, I'm here to learn from rebirth this time, I think it's very good to advocate the new type of online literature he advocates, this is the need of the times, and the literary model of the Great Qin Empire can be completely changed. ”
"Haha, are you confused? What is there to learn from a child?Learn his vernacular?" Dong Sen laughed disdainfully.
"That's right, now the pace of the times is accelerating, everyone's work is busier than in the past, the competition is fierce, how can readers have time to carefully ponder our literary novels?
"Fall, you are fallen, what is the value of literature?"
Ying Feng suddenly said on the side: "The value of literature? What is that?" His words made Zhou Shu stunned.
"What do you mean?" asked Dong Sen dissatisfied.
"The greatest value of literature may be that it is useless!" Ying Feng's words made everyone not very understanding, and Zhou Shuzhi was thoughtful.
Dong Sen was furious, "Nonsense, you yourself are an author, and you actually said such a thing." ”
"Hehe, it's because I'm an author that I know that literature is really useless. Can it be eaten?" Ying Feng looked at Dong Sen mockingly, "Literature is also to entertain the public in the final analysis, and now the needs of the public are changing, and you are ignoring this, it is still a novel with those themes, and it is still those obscure words, don't you think about what everyone needs?"
"Just like celebrities need fans, we writers need readers, and without readers, are we still writers?" "Editor-in-Chief Feng should know that the readership of Chinese Splendid is decreasing, and everyone is tired of the current online novels, maybe they are tired of it, right?"
Feng Zhang nodded very cooperatively, "Yes, I'm really starting to get tired of it, the subject matter is too old." ”
"Hmph, don't think we can't see it, you have already prepared for each other, but this time we will not give up, thousands of writers will boycott you, I see what you are capable of. Dong Sen was already very angry, and directly took out the prestige of a thousand writers, Feng Zhang was not easy to speak.
Heng Mei coldly pointed at Qianfu, bowing his head and being willing to be a son of a cow. As I said, I'm going to write for the readers, and it doesn't matter how many of you are. Ying Feng took out a famous quote from Lu Xun, although the artistic conception is completely different, but it is quite appropriate.
Zhou Shu's eyes lit up, and even Dong Sen had to praise the good sentence, Feng Zhang asked with some excitement: "Good sentence, is there any more?"
"Hehe, no, but it's just a feeling, even if it's a good sentence, can't we guys be lonely and self-appreciative? Still need the recognition of a large number of readers, is literature really valuable? Or do we make literature too high to the point that others can't understand it in order to reflect the value?"
