Chapter 16: I Need to Make Quick Money

"Mr. Yan, you answered the phone. Sun Xiaoyu's voice came from the other end, the voice was soft and glutinous, it turned out to be a man, not a girl.

This surprised Liu Zhang: "Hello, Sun Xiaoyu, I'm Mr. Yan's assistant, the one who talked to you about QQ just now." Mr. Yan is inconvenient to answer the phone now, even if the matter on your side is very important, tell me first. Mr. Yan has something in her health and can't contact you for the time being, so I'll wait for her spirit to get better before conveying it. ”

"Hello sir, I'm Sun Xiaoyu, a staff member of Global Film and Television, and this matter is really important. Sun Xiaoyu said.

After listening to Sun Xiaoyu's words from the film company, Liu Zhang understood. It turned out that this TV series had about thirty episodes, each with 30,000 words. At the beginning, Yan Cheng was greedy and cheap, and found an unknown writer, 100 yuan for 1000 words, and the screenwriter could get a total of 270,000 yuan. However, this editor only wrote ten episodes, and it ended suddenly, which caught the crew off guard.

The truth of the matter is that a book written by this playwright before suddenly became popular, and his remuneration rose to 1,000 words, and he was dug up by other elders in the film and television industry. There was a thousand manuscript fees to be paid, and the playwright was naturally impatient to write another thousand words and a hundred, so he hurriedly finished it.

At the beginning, in order to save money, and he didn't know much about the film and television industry, the contract formulated was not formal, and he had no choice but to take the playwright.

After listening to the other party's words, Liu Zhang comforted him a few words and said, "Don't worry, I will report this matter to Mr. Yan as soon as possible, and I will give you the news later." He put down the phone.

This time, the filming and physical examination were carried out, and there were many patients in the hospital, and each physical examination took nearly an hour.

Liu Zhang ran before and after, since he had to squeeze with hundreds of patients' families, pay fees, communicate with doctors, and take care of his words, he was so tired that he was physically and mentally exhausted before he finished everything.

When he returned to the ward and lay down, Yan Chengqi was already full of paleness and his spirit was extremely sad. Hearing Liu Zhang talk about this, she moved her lips weakly: "Don't care, just leave it at that, anyway, I don't have the money to hire other screenwriters, you don't know how prosperous the film and television industry is now, good screenwriters, major film and television companies have broken their heads." A thousand words and a hundred words, you can't hire a qualified writer at all, so be it...... Husband, my head hurts, and my body is a little cold......" She still hasn't said a word, and now all the accounts in hand have been frozen, and she can't withdraw a dime, so she won't have a place to pay for tomorrow's medical expenses.

It's hard to protect yourself, but how much can you manage?

Hearing this, Liu Zhang put his hand on Yan Chengqi's forehead, only to feel that the tentacles were hot, and he exclaimed in surprise: "Doctor, doctor, come soon!"

Yan Chengqi broke a rib after a car accident and suffered a lot of internal injuries. After robbing the ICU ward for a few days, and then transferred to the general ward, although he was out of danger and was able to barely walk on the ground, there was still inflammation in his body. Today, I went to take a physical examination with Liu Zhang, but I was delayed for a long time in the garden of the hospital, the wind blew, and after returning to the ward, I had a high fever.

In the evening, when Liu Zhang and Boss Jin finished building the wall together and sent food back to the ward, Yan Chengqi had a high fever of 39 degrees, and the whole person was already burned in a daze, and she couldn't feed her porridge.

Seeing the infusion tube inserted into her body, and seeing the back of her bruised hand that had been pricked with needles and full of pinholes, Liu Zhang felt sad for a while, so he wrung a hot towel and gently applied it on it.

"Mr. Liu, can you come out, I have something to tell you. Dr. Niu looked at the medical equipment and said.

When Liu Zhang heard him say this, he thought that Yan Chengqi was not in good health, and his heart couldn't help but tighten. When I got to the door, I was relieved to hear Dr. Niu's words.

Dr. Niu said that the patient should not be nervous, and the infusion should be given for two days, and the fever should go down. However, the medical fee must be paid as soon as possible, otherwise the conservative treatment adopted by the hospital will not be conducive to the recovery of the hospital.

"Okay, okay, I'll pay the fee, thank you Dr. Niu. Liu Zhang was so sad that his heart was about to break, and in the end, there was no work in the hospital, and he and Boss Jin both lived by working part-time jobs. Today, I was busy for a day and only got 500 yuan in wages, which is not enough at all. Seeing that the cost of medicine was getting more and more tired, it was like a big mountain, and he couldn't breathe.

Only 100 yuan was left for living expenses, and all the cash in his body was handed over to the hospital, and Liu Zhangben made up his mind to borrow a little from Boss Jin. I thought about it, but I just did. Lao Jin and Xiao Sao are both migrant workers, and in fact, life is also difficult. Lao Jin just built a new house in his hometown last year, and he still has a daughter who is in college to support, and he already owes a fart debt. In two months, the New Year will be celebrated, and I have to remit the land money to my family. As for Xiao Sao, this is a bachelor who feeds the whole family without hunger. With money, masturbation, mahjong, and great health care, you can waste it in a day, and it is good if he doesn't borrow it from you.

Thinking of Yan Chengqi's condition, and remembering that Dr. Niu just said that he would be treated conservatively, Liu Zhang, who had no heart and lungs in the past, was severely depressed.

Looking back at the time, he was also a white-collar worker with a monthly income of tens of thousands, or even twenty or thirty thousand, which was simply an inspirational model for ordinary people. Like Xiao Sao, after receiving a salary, he stopped eating, and bought new electronic products as soon as they came out, month and month. High consumption gives him the illusion that he has succeeded, or is on his way to success. For a while, he even felt that it was not bad to live like this, but in fact, people don't need to struggle, and they don't need to be so tired.

But now he has a deep understanding that the so-called urban white-collar workers are so vulnerable when they encounter something. In just an instant, you can make your class fall to the lowest level.

But I can't lose like that. If it were the past, I would be unlucky, and I would just grit my teeth and mix it up for a while. Now it's different, I've got a twist, I can't leave her alone. Love and family make people grow. A man can only become a man when he takes responsibility.

"Golden hoop bang......" Teacher Gong Linna's singing voice sounded again, and the phone rang again. At this time, Liu Zhang found that he was still carrying her bag in his hand.

With Chengqi's current physical condition, it is obvious that he can't answer the phone. He took out his mobile phone, which had stopped calling, and was about to turn it off so as not to disturb others' rest.

At this time, I suddenly remembered the phone call from Sun Xiaoyu before, and my heart suddenly moved, as if there was a lightning bolt passing through my mind, shining directly on his whole body: code words, earn manuscript fees, save Chengqian, how can I forget that I have this skill?

Yes, in the second decade of the new century, with the popularization of the Internet, mobile payment means have penetrated into all aspects of daily life. Online literature has also ushered in a second climax, and it has also created an amazing myth of wealth.

In the first decade of the new century, when the novelty of online literature first appeared, readers did not have the habit of paying to read. If online writers want to earn manuscript fees, they all rely on die-hard genuine subscription support. Even for super-first-class writers, the monthly manuscript fee is only a thousand. Therefore, many writers are part-time in online code words, and many times they stick to it only with their love for literature.

However, as time went on, the means of payment became faster and easier, and the writer's income began to flip upwards like a somersault. From 1,000 to 10,000 a month, it took five years. From 10,000 to 100,000, it's only three years. And now, it is not uncommon for people to earn 100,000 a month, or even a million a month.

At the moment, when you open the Richbes list of writers' income, at least half of the top ten writers are online authors.

Speaking of which, Liu Zhang back then was also considered to have received a manuscript fee on the Internet, the writing was okay, and the ideas and concepts were novel, if he was writing online to earn manuscript fees now, although he was not sure that he would be successful, but there should be no problem in signing the contract. There are many things that you don't try, and you don't know where you'll go, whether you'll succeed or not.

However, as a former insider, Liu Zhang is clear about the whole process of online literature from publication to signing, and then to seeing the first manuscript fee. If you want to become an online writer, the first step is to write a manuscript fee of 20,000 or 30,000 words, and then find a large reputable literary online war registered writer and start updating it daily.

When the published novel reaches 30,000 words, it will automatically enter the editor's sight. As a result, there are three editors cross-reviewed. Once they feel that your book is still complete and there will be a certain market, they will take the initiative to contact you to sign a contract.

Once signed, the editor will mobilize the site's resources to recommend your work and follow up closely to monitor all the data of the book.

During the time you signed up to distribute the book, you had to update the chapters every day, as if they were serialized in the newspapers. The daily update volume must be between 3,000 and 10,000 words, and it cannot be interrupted. It only takes a day or two to break off, and the number of readers chasing the book will be lost, and then, your book is finished.

After a period of promotion, when the time is almost over, the editor will let your book go to VIP for sale. Subscribe to the money, the author and the website seventy-three cents.

It's easy to say, but it's actually a long process.

Liu Zhang has a general understanding that in ten years, a new book lasts for one month from the issuance of the book to the signing and recommendation to the sale, and the total number of free chapters is 200,000. And now, the update speed of online books is getting faster and faster, and it usually takes two months, and the free chapters reach a staggering 300,000 words. When the sales came down for a month and I saw the manuscript fee, it was the fourth month.

Obviously, I can't wait for that time, but this path will not work.

Fast money, fast money, fast money, I need to make quick money now!

"By the way, find Sun Xiaoyu and write the script, the money will come quickly. Liu Zhang's eyes lit up.

Yes, according to what Sun Xiaoyu said on the phone before, the playwright invited by Huanqiu Film and Television Company gathered ten times to make an account. Based on the calculation of 30,000 words in one episode, ten episodes are 300,000 words. And 300,000 words is not too difficult for yourself, that is, a matter of a month.

As a former Internet writer, when he was in college, he also tried his writing speed, and if he put himself wholeheartedly, he could carry tens of thousands of words every day.

300,000 words is the manuscript fee of 30,000 yuan, plus I work some short-term jobs at Boss Jin on weekdays, and the medicine fee is slowly not enough.

Thinking of this, he became excited.
