Chapter Twenty-Eight: Surprise {Collect!!}

Zhu Mingli suddenly became emotional, while his parents were moved to tears, his father Zhu Guangming was also happily drunk, and after the banquet, after vomiting outside, he went back to the bedroom of the new house to sleep.

Zhou Jiamei cleaned up the mess with a few aunts and relatives, talking and chatting in the living room.

After the banquet, Tang Bo and Peng Jin urged Zhu Mingli to hurry up and see if the magazine had replied, Zhu Mingli felt that although he was clever when he submitted, he would not get a reply so quickly.

However, the two emperors were not in a hurry, and the eunuchs were in a hurry, so Zhu Mingli had no choice but to go to the Internet café with the two.

The three of them came to the supermarket Internet café together, Zhu Mingli saw that Wang Pan, Liu Chao and others were already having fun, there happened to be two machines, and the three of them turned on, Zhu Mingli sat in front of a machine first, and logged in QQ.

As soon as he logged in to QQ, Zhu Mingli saw the email reminder and friend application, and saw that the head-up display was "Science Fiction World Magazine Editorial Department" Zhu Mingli was shocked!

"Alas!alas!replied!replied!" Tang Bo and Peng Jin were even more excited than Zhu Mingli himself, "Hurry up and take a look!"

"......" Zhu Mingli clicked on the email, when he saw the content of the email, the editor replied that his novel was accepted, although Zhu Mingli had signed several contracts in later generations, he finally couldn't suppress his joy!

clicked on the friend application again, and saw that the remarks were written with the words "Science Fiction World Editor", Zhu Mingli hurriedly clicked to agree to add friends.

"Wow! Damn! I was really hired! Mingli, you are so awesome!" Tang Bo's eyes widened!

"This is a writer!" Peng Jin said with a complicated expression.

"Shhhh......h He doesn't want to make his writing a novel known to everyone now!

After signaling the two to keep quiet, Zhu Mingli quickly communicated with Liu Wei, the editor who took the initiative to contact him.

Since the magazine has accepted Zhu Mingli's novel, it is natural to mail the rest of the manuscript, and the editor Liu Wei asked Zhu Mingli to send the express and cash on delivery, although it only takes two days to go from the southeast coast to the southwest hinterland.

The rest, the most important content is the copyright and manuscript fee of the novel.

The copyright naturally belongs to Zhu Mingli personally, but the magazine is entrusted to operate by default, for example, the novel is welcomed, the magazine itself has a publishing house, and it will organize the physical book to be listed, in addition to the film and television adaptation rights or something, the magazine will operate, and the treatment will go according to the market price, but the magazine society extracts a certain operating cost, not much, 3 to 5 percent of the copyright fee.

Finally, there is the issue of manuscript fees, at the beginning, Liu Wei gave Mingli a price of 80 yuan per thousand words, saying that this price is very high among newcomers.

But Zhu Mingli was not satisfied, 80 words per thousand, and I worked hard for more than a month to earn 20,004! Well, I admit that this price is enough to compare with those white-collar workers in first-tier cities, and it is also enough for the initial goal of "making money on a computer"!

But people are always not satisfied, who can earn a little more, who would be too little?

So Zhu Mingli began to negotiate with the editor Liu Wei about the conditions, asking him to raise the remuneration of the manuscript, and Liu Wei sent a flower to get 85 yuan for 1,000 words. Nima, you really coax me like a child!

So Zhu Mingli made a big move and sold miserably!

Zhu Mingli told Liu Wei that the reason why he wrote novels and submitted them to the magazine was because his family owed money, and he watched his parents work hard every day, and he was very depressed because he was too young to help, so he thought about writing novels to make money to help his family pay off his debts.

Unexpectedly, he wrote so many words of fiction and only received a salary of more than 20,000 yuan, which was too far from his expectations! This made him very disappointed! I felt so useless!

Liu Wei seemed to be really moved by Zhu Mingli, and after weighing it, he raised the remuneration to 100 yuan per thousand words, saying that this was the highest remuneration he could give, because this price was already the price of many powerful writers, and it was not until a long time later that Zhu Mingli knew that the standard of the manuscript fee of Science Fiction World Magazine was basically 100 yuan per thousand words......

As soon as Zhu Mingli saw Liu Wei's tone, he knew that this seemed to be the highest remuneration he could get at present, so he agreed. 30,000 yuan, not bad!

So Zhu Mingli accepted the contract from Liu Wei, and Liu Wei asked him to fill it out in detail, print it and send it together with the manuscript of the novel, in duplicate. It was agreed that the magazine would receive the full text of Zhu Mingli's novel, and after confirming that it was correct, it would contact him and transfer the manuscript fee to the bank card account filled in the contract.

This kind of contract, Zhu Mingli has signed several times in his later life, although the contract of the magazine is not the same type as the contract of the online novel, but Zhu Mingli browsed it in detail and found that there is not much difference.

All that's left is to print the contract and go home and confess to your parents!

Because after the contract is signed, the manuscript fee will be collected, Zhu Mingli does not have a bank card now, and he needs to go to the bank to handle it! And his parents still use a passbook, and it will take two years to change to a bank card, and the only bank card is only the salary card for the salary in Zhoujiamei Factory......

After filling in some content on the computer first, and continuing to store it in the mailbox draft box, Zhu Mingli gave the machine to Tang Bo, left the Internet café by himself, and walked in the direction of the highway.

After walking for three or five minutes, I came to the shoe road, saw a copy shop, walked in and typed two copies of the contract, and by the way, I also typed out the chat record of chatting with Liu Wei, and spent the last fifteen yuan of Zhu Mingli's private money, and left the copy shop and walked home with the eyes of the owner of the copy shop with surprise and scrutiny.

Under the scorching sun, Zhu Mingli, who was sweating, finally returned home.

Those relatives, friends, aunts and aunts all went home at this time, Zhu Mingli went over to take a look, his mother was resting in the bedroom, looked at the contract in his hand, thought about it, and did not disturb his parents' rest, and returned to his room upstairs.

As soon as the door of the room was opened, the geographical advantages of Zhu Mingli's house were revealed, and a gust of sea breeze blew from the window, taking away the heat from the body.

Putting the contract on the table, Zhu Mingli ran to the bathroom to wash his face, and when he returned to the room, he also lay on the bed and began to take a nap!

At two o'clock, Zhu Mingli was woken up by the alarm clock.

I got up and went downstairs to see my mother embroidering cross-stitch in the living room. So Zhu Mingli went upstairs to get the contract, chat records and novel manuscripts, and went downstairs to find his mother.

"Mom!" Zhu Mingli came to his mother, "I'm going to get a bank card!"

"Huh?" Zhou Jiamei raised her head and looked at her eldest son, "What do you do with a bank card?"

"I took the time to write a novel during the summer vacation, submitted it to a magazine, and was hired. Zhu Mingli showed his mother a thick stack of documents in his hand, "Now the magazine is going to sign a contract with me, and I will apply for a bank card to receive the manuscript fee!"

"What are you talking about?!" Zhou Jiamei listened to her eldest son's words, but she didn't react at all!

Is it because her son has written a novel? Is it a book that has been taken by a magazine?
