"Director Lu is early!"

The delicate and lovely front desk lady bowed, and her sweet and crisp voice made Lu Chen can't help but look at her more. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The front desk of Lu Chen's studio has always been Sister Xiaomei, and not long ago, Lu Xi's assistant was transferred, which is a big improvement, and this front desk is newly recruited recently.

At that time, Lu Chen happened to go to Xiangjiang, and it is said that the news of recruiting a new front desk was released, and there was an endless stream of beauties who came to apply, and the competition was very fierce.

It's a shame he didn't get to meet, but the carefully selected new employee is undoubtedly eye-catching.

Lu Chen nodded: "Morning." ”

Although the studio was founded by him, the position of general manager has always been held by Lu Xi, who was originally the music director and is now the artistic director.

He asked, "What's your name?"

The front desk lady smiled sweetly: "My name is Wang Yali, you can just call me Xiaoli." ”

"Director Lu, Manager Zhang of Shanhai Publishing House is waiting for you in the reception room, are you meeting him in the office, or?"

Lu Chen said, "I'll go see him directly." ”

Shanhai Publishing House is one of the top ten private publishing houses in China, headquartered in Beijing, when Lu Chen published the novel "Blue Life and Death Love", this publishing house won the copyright at a high price of 15% royalty + 500,000 guarantees.

Later, the novel version of "Full House of Romance" also cooperated with Shanhai Publishing House.

So far, the total sales of Lu Chen's two novels have exceeded 5 million, and as a work adapted from a film and television drama, the results are very dazzling, aside from the influence of the work itself, Shanhai Publishing House has also made great contributions.

Therefore, in the list of cooperation with Lu Chen's studio, Shanhai Publishing House is the first sequence.

Zhang Yaocheng, manager Zhang of Shanhai Publishing House, knew Lu Chen, and the deputy general manager and editor-in-chief personally came to the studio to wait for Lu Chen, and Lu Chen of course had to come forward to receive him in person.

"Manager Zhang, long time no see!"

In the reception room, Lu Chen met Zhang Yaocheng again, a middle-aged man with an elegant temperament.

Zhang Yaocheng and Lu Chen shook hands tightly, and said with a smile: "Director Lu, you are a busy person, it is really not easy to find you!"

Lu Chen was ashamed: "Recently, I have been preparing to make movies in Xiangjiang, but I really lack skills." ”

Zhang Yaocheng said: "Then this time, let's just finalize the contract!"

Lu Chen nodded: "Okay." ”

It was only at this time that Zhang Yaocheng introduced a young woman he brought to Lu Chen: "This is Zhou Lu, my assistant editor, and she is in charge of the editing of "Smiling Proud Jianghu". ”

Lu Chen nodded at the other party and smiled, "Hello." ”

"You... Hello. ”

Zhou Lu was in her twenties, with an ordinary appearance, with thick glasses, she was obviously a little flustered in the face of Lu Chen, she wanted to stretch out her hand and retracted it, her face turned red.

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, let's go to the office to talk." ”

"Good!"

Of course, Zhang Yaocheng had no objections, he glared at Zhou Lu quietly, quite hating iron and steel.

He brought his niece over today to let her see the world, get to know Lu Chen, a promising young man, and expand her horizons and connections.

I didn't expect Zhou Lu's performance to be so bad, and she didn't have the confidence she usually had at work.

It can only be said that Lu Chen's charm is too great, or the aura is too dazzling, so that a fledgling girl like Zhou Lu can't stay calm and calm.

After taking a seat in Lu Chen's office, Zhou Lu finally reacted and took out a thick stack of books from the briefcase he was carrying, a total of five volumes and placed them in front of Lu Chen.

Zhang Yaocheng explained: "This is a sample book specially ordered by our publishing house, and the title of the book is inscribed by the famous calligrapher Mr. Fu Guangyuan, and Director Lu is also invited to review it. ”

Lu Chen picked up the book placed on the top and looked at it carefully.

Although it is only a sample book, it is basically not much different from the officially published book, the color laser printed cover resolution is very high, and the four black characters of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" are vigorous and powerful, showing the extraordinary skills of the writer, and the pen sweeps and has a bit of uninhibited chivalry.

Lu Chen was very satisfied.

"Smiling Proud Jianghu" is a test work of Lu Chen's big IP plan, and in May and June this year, he debuted the online version of Inspur Reading under the pseudonym of "Remembering the Present and the Ancient".

At the beginning, the results of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" were on the street, with few clicks, favorites and reader comments, which can be described as extremely bleak.

But when Lu Chen continued to update to more than 200,000 words, the book's performance improved greatly, and more and more readers liked the book, and they also got an invitation to sign a contract with the book station.

Of course, it is impossible for Lu Chen to sign "Smiling Proud Jianghu" to Inspur Reading, and later slowed down the speed of the update, and when the accumulation reached 500,000 words, the update was suspended and a publication notice was issued.

At this time, the number of collections of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" in Inspur Reading has exceeded 30,000+!

In the operation of this new school of martial arts novels, Lu Chen is not in a hurry, unlike movies or television, the reputation of a good book takes time to accumulate and brew, such as wine in the cellar, the longer the time, the more fragrant it is.

Now that the heat is almost over, Lu Chen will promote it to the market through official publishing, and then operate it appropriately, paving the way for a series of works such as "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "Dragon Babu" in the future.

This set of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" has a total of five volumes, the full text is about one million words, the book design and binding are antique, and the layout of the text is regular, and the Shanhai Publishing House is undoubtedly very attentive.

When Lu Chen reviewed the sample book, Zhang Yaocheng's heart was not calm.

When Lu Chen's studio brought the manuscript over, there was a dispute between the publishing house on the specific terms of the contract, because the author of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" did not have any fame in the circle, and he did not have any works before.

Publishing such a book must be risky, and if the royalty is divided + guaranteed, it is easy to lose money.

However, after Zhang Yaocheng read "Smiling Proud Jianghu" and learned that the book was fed back by readers of Inspur Reading, he resolutely decided to sign the contract according to the highest level of author treatment.

This is not only the need to continue to cooperate well with Lu Chen's studio, but more importantly, Zhang Yaocheng has developed a strong interest in this martial arts novel, and the sensitivity of his profession tells him that in the reading market of traditional books, "Smiling Proud Jianghu" definitely has a place.

Therefore, after learning that Lu Chen came back from Xiangjiang, he immediately visited the door as soon as possible and sent a carefully prepared sample book to ensure that he could win the publishing contract.

Zhang Yaocheng believes that his sincerity is enough to achieve this cooperation.

And in fact he was not disappointed.
