Chapter 146: Bitterness Comes Sweetly!
A minibus from Jiuyanqiao Township to Puning was seriously overloaded, and it was crowded with men and women passengers, chattering in a local accent.
Zhu Tian was lucky, he just grabbed a window seat on the left side of the last row when he got on the train at the starting station, so no matter whether the minibus was seriously overloaded, whether the aisle was crowded with passengers, and whether the surrounding environment was noisy? Zhu Tian sat on his seat with his own eyes, nose, nose, and heart, completely untouched by the east, west, north, and south winds.
If you look closely, you will find that Zhu Tian's thoughts have drifted away, but it is difficult to hide the joy between his eyebrows.
Indeed, at this moment, Zhu Tian's heart was full of joy, and he was full of infinite longing for his future.
It is said that knowledge changes fate, and in Zhu Tian's view, online writing can also change fate!
On October 1 last year, Zhu Tian released his debut novel "Save the Tang Beauty" under the author's name of "Heavens and I Respect", as of January 31, 2003, Zhu Tian earned a total of 5600 yuan in remuneration, with an average monthly income of 1400 yuan, of course, this is not the point, the point is that from February 2003, his "Save the Tang Beauty" will receive a buyout price of 30 yuan per thousand words.
The buyout price of a work of 30 yuan for 1,000 words, just thinking about it, Zhu Tian was a little excited.
In other words, what kind of concept is "30 yuan for 1,000 words"?
Zhu Tian couldn't help but set up an abacus in his heart, taking 300,000 words a month as an example, Zhu Tian's pre-tax remuneration can reach 9,000 yuan, even if he wants to deduct 600 yuan of manuscript tax, he will have an income of 8,400 yuan after tax.
It is worth mentioning that 300,000 words per month is not the upper limit of Zhu Tian's monthly code words, after all, he has always been a part-time writer before, and before the monthly income of online writing is not completely stable, Zhu Tian does not dare to cut off his other source of income, that is, the excavator!
In fact, as long as you can endure hardships, no matter what you do, you can make money.
For example, excavators, this industry is not decent, but the money earned is several times that of ordinary workers, but excavators have a certain risk, and it is not an exaggeration to say that excavator drivers are a high-risk occupation.
To tell the truth, Zhu Tian is not afraid of hardship, he thinks that young people should be ruthless to themselves, if not, Zhu Tian will not keep squeezing his rest time to work part-time.
It's just that Zhu Tian feels that excavators are not a long-term livelihood, of course, until there is no better choice, Zhu Tian will continue to make a living with excavators until he finds another job with a better way out.
If he didn't find it, Zhu Tian could only accept his fate and drive an excavator for a lifetime.
Fortunately, Zhu Tian's luck is not bad, his best friend is the CEO and editor-in-chief, and with such a powerful friend in his hands, Zhu Tian's online writing road is smooth, and his fate trajectory has also deviated from the original track.
Zhu Tian didn't know whether the buyout price of 30 yuan for 1,000 words was high or low? Anyway, in his opinion, the buyout price of this work was enough for him to muster up the courage to embark on the road of full-time writer, and enough for him to convince his family to support him full-time codeword.
Zhu Tian part-time codeword, hard work, 300,000 words per month is not a problem, and the speed of this codeword is also Zhu Tian's limit, but Zhu Tian believes that if he becomes a full-time writer and does his best to code, 600,000 words per month should not be a problem.
The monthly code is 300,000 words, and the monthly income is 8,400 yuan! The monthly code is 600,000 words, isn't it 16,800 yuan per month?
The monthly income is 16,800 yuan, before the change, Zhu Tian didn't dare to think about it, but now, Zhu Tian not only dares to think, but also dares to fight to struggle, life is endless, and the code words are not stopped!
Zhu Tian firmly believes that 16,800 yuan is by no means the end of his monthly income, as long as he takes one step at a time on the road of online writing, he will continue to break his monthly income record!
The minibus shook slowly all the way, and after more than 40 minutes, it finally shook from Jiuyanqiao Town to Puning West Bus Station.
Zhu Tiantian got into the car, stopped a taxi without hesitation, and went straight to Bauhinia Garden.
In about twenty minutes, Zhu Tian easily came to the starting point studio in Bauhinia Garden.
Tang Wei's eyes were sharp, and she was the first to find Zhu Tian's arrival, and her face showed surprise: "Wow~ Tianshao, you rushed over from the Jiuyan Bridge so quickly?"
Tang Wei remembered that more than an hour ago, she was still discussing the "new contract" of "Saving the Tang Beauty" with Zhu Tian on QQ. According to the normal procedure of signing a work on the website, after confirming that the "New Contract" is fine, Zhu Tian should first print out the "Contract" (electronic version) (in duplicate), then sign all the names that should be signed in the "New Contract" with a pen or gel pen, and finally mail the "New Contract" (in duplicate) to the starting studio.
Jiuyanqiao Town is only 15 kilometers away from Puning, if Zhu Tian drives by himself, without traffic jams, he can reach Puning from Jiuyanqiao Town in 20 minutes at most, in this case, why should Zhu Tian wait for a long time?
In 2003, when online shopping was not very popular, such as Jiuyanqiao, a small town belonging to a fifth-tier small city, the town's courier company had only one postal service, and its delivery speed was really flattering.
In this way, Zhu Tian can also devote himself wholeheartedly to full-time codewords.
Zhang Jing and the others found out that Zhu Tian was coming, and greeted him with a smile, "Tianshao." ”
Zhu Tian smiled and waved his hand at everyone: "Hi~ Hello everyone!"
Tang Wei stood up and asked with a smile, "Are you drinking tea or water?"
"I don't care, even if I don't drink it, Mo Shao...... Are you always there?" With Chen Mo's relationship, Zhu Tian had no pressure on the seven editors at the starting point, and was very casual.
"In. Tang Wei saw that there was no decent place in their office area to greet Zhu Tian to sit, so she suggested: "Why don't you go to President Mo's office to sit first?" I will come in with the "Work Buyout Contract" and sign it for you in a while. ”
"Okay. After speaking, Zhu Tian walked to Chen Mo's office with a golden sword.
After a while, Zhu Tian came to Chen Mo's office, although it was not the first time Zhu Tian came to Chen Mo's office, but every time he came, he would envy once, you must know that his friends are the same age as him, but people have their own CEO office at a young age.
On the other hand, if he hadn't been taken care of, it was estimated that he would have to drive an excavator for the rest of his life.
"Come on, sit down, do you want to have dinner together in the evening?"
Chen Mo didn't get up to greet him, they were all so familiar with each other, was it necessary to be polite? Sometimes it was too polite, but it would seem outward.
"Definitely, it's rare for me to come to Puning once, we have to have a few more drinks tonight. ”
In order to celebrate his transformation into a full-time writer, Zhu Tian secretly decided in his heart that he would not get drunk with his dead friend tonight.
"It's rare, I've asked you a few times before, but you're not available. ”
Calculated carefully, it seems that Chen Mo and Zhu Tian haven't seen each other for a month.
When Zhu Tian heard this, he vomited bitter water: "Mo Shao, don't you know how bitter it is for me to insist on 10,000 words a day for part-time code words?"
Chen Mo smiled and said, "So you have come to the bitter end." ”
Indeed, compared to the part-time writers who are still struggling, Zhu Tian is lucky and has come to the end!
