Chapter 18 Deliver the manuscript with one hand and pay the money with the other

It's better to meet than to be famous.

That's true.

Xu Teng already regretted meeting Luo Ye, the editor-in-chief of Luo, it was really not what he imagined, nor was it what he usually looked like in communication, vulgar, vulgar made him speechless.

This editor-in-chief Luo is unreliable, and the boss he brought is even more unreliable.

When these two people saw Yu Suyun, and when they heard her speak, they almost lost half of their souls, and their concentration was not as good as that of a young man.

When he thought about it carefully, it was not right, because he had worked as a public relations manager for so many years before, and he was originally the kind of woman who was used to seeing beautiful women.

Yu Suyun's voice is really soft to the extreme, and no matter how soft it is, it will be coquettish, no one can control this scale, so this is her nature, she just speaks like this.

As long as it's a man, it can't be stopped.

What's more, she is a great beauty.

"Oh, let's go to my little shop first. Boss Song took the lead very politely and hurriedly, led everyone into the hotel, went directly to the tea house on the side of the hotel's window, found the most spacious position to sit down, and beckoned the manager opposite, "Xiao Wang, I will talk about something very important now, you close the door of the tea house for the time being, and it will not be open." ”

Xu Teng was slightly surprised, but he didn't expect that it was not amazing.

"With such a good location, Boss Song is really good at investing. Yu Suyun probably felt the same way, and exclaimed.

"I'm from Taichung, and when I encounter this kind of opportunity, I always have to make a move. In fact, it's quite funny, I was originally going to invest in a factory with the telecommunications bureau, and a friend introduced me, so I had to come, but their director saw me as a small boss and didn't agree to talk to me. I stayed here at night, I was very angry, I had breakfast here in the morning before leaving, and the little sister in the store said that she was going to sell the store, and she had to find another job. ”

"It just so happened that the deputy director of their telecommunications bureau came to see me off, and I asked him, how much does your store sell. He said that he could sell at least 500,000 yuan, and ten years ago, 500,000 yuan was not too little, so I threw the bag on the ground and told him, there are 700,000 yuan here, I was going to use it to set up a factory, you take it, and the store belongs to me. Now, my store can make millions a year, and it's as easy as printing money. ”

Boss Song's words were mainly said to Yu Suyun, but he estimated that he also knew that people would not necessarily take it seriously, and now in the mainland, earning millions a year is no longer a level.

He's here to talk about business.

"So, Xiao Xu, I read your book, and I'm very interested. I have been engaged in novel publishing in Taiwan for more than 20 years, and I said that if any book can be popular, it will definitely be popular. Why, I sue you, Taiwanese people look at it, or watch martial arts, just change their tricks, you say this book is science fiction, but in fact, you are learning Jin Yong and Gu Long in your bones. You can learn from them, other interstellar empires, spaceships, and samurai armor are all gimmicks. ”

"Money is not a problem, my publishing house in Taiwan is not large, because the Taiwan market is too small, and it is not cost-effective to invest, I have money, why not invest in the mainland? However, there is no problem with my funds, you give the manuscript today, I will give money now. I don't owe you a cent of royalties for how much Taiwan sells, it's all a small amount of money for me, as long as the publishing house doesn't fall. ”

Xu Teng hadn't said a word, and the other party had almost said it very clearly.

Luo Ye is short of eating people and short of hands, "Boss Song is very happy to give money, we have cooperated, this is still very clear." Second, Boss Song doesn't want a pen name, he wants a traditional publishing right, what about the contract, our Boss Song has already brought it, you can take a look first. ”

said that it was the contract brought by Boss Song, but it turned out to be Luo Ye himself.

Yu Suyun took the lead and took the contract over and looked through it, there was only one page, and she frowned slightly when she saw it, probably there were many loopholes.

She didn't speak, and gave it to Xu Teng, her eyes were not very good.

It's no wonder that she was originally full of beautiful literati fantasies about the editor-in-chief of the magazine, but at first glance, she was a layman, making extra money outside and helping Boss Song do business.

It was the first time Xu Teng talked to someone else about this kind of thing, and he had never seen a similar contract, so he could only look at Yu Suyun, after all, she was a professional.

Yu Suyun shook her head slightly.

"This contract is actually only intentional, I'll give Editor-in-Chief Luo a rough look, in fact, I have a formal one here, you can take a look. Boss Song hurriedly took out another contract from his old briefcase.

There are no stupid people in business.

Boss Song showed Xu Teng first this time, as for whether Xu Teng gave Yu Suyun a look, he didn't care, anyway, this time, he didn't play tricks.

This time, Yu Suyun nodded slightly, she was also surprised, and asked Xu Teng, "Boss Song's contract has no bottom line, in other words, if he wants you to write a million words, you have to write a million words." Conversely, if he asks you to write 100,000 words, you can only write 100,000 words. ”

"Market economy, as long as there is a market, of course, we must continue to write. Boss Song hurriedly explained, "In fact, the market in Taiwan is all rented bookstores, and only a small part of them are collected by readers. As long as a new episode comes out, there will be people who will keep following, but if the back is not well written and the sales are not good, then no matter how good the relationship is, I can only cut it. ”

"Yes, but I can only write three million at most, and if I don't write more, if I don't write well, the cut will end immediately, and it won't be delayed. ”

"Three million!" Yu Suyun was startled, a little unsure of how many episodes it would take.

"Three million is good, but if it's too long, not many people will be able to keep up. In this case, we guarantee a minimum of 600,000 words, ten episodes, a month, you write one episode, or two episodes, preferably two episodes. I can pay directly now for as long as you want. You just set up the story according to the structure of three million words, how much to write, you can do it yourself, we don't ask, but I want you to cut it, you better cut it in two episodes. It's a bad end, but you can't be too bad. ”

Boss Song is indeed very happy, and he is ready to pay for it.

"In this case, I will revise the contract a little more, and I will do what you two said. Yu Suyun was still dissatisfied with Boss Song's contract, but she didn't say it explicitly.

"Yu Da Mei is an expert in the law department at first glance, if you want to help, of course you can. Boss Song is still very refreshing, "I have a network cable here, I'll ask someone else to send me an electronic version, you can change it directly, it's easy to print, and there is a printer in the store." ”

As Boss Song said, it is really convenient to talk about things here, everything is ready-made.

Yu Suyun quickly got the electronic version, made a lot of changes in Xu Teng's notebook, and finally showed it to Boss Song.

Boss Song scratched his head, most likely a little unacceptable, I don't know for what reason, and he didn't refuse, "Okay, then that's it, small business, the main thing is that the cooperation is pleasant, and the trickle is long." ”

The only reason he didn't refuse, as he said, was a small deal.

He is actually really rich, Luo Ye is not wrong, he invested 50 million yuan in a plastic factory in Chengdu, but at his age, he understands everything.

Yu Suyun, a big beauty in the law department, even if she only relies on her own ability to eat, in the mainland, forty or fifty thousand a year is very easy, and she is willing to sacrifice her hue, and it is no problem to have hundreds of thousands a year.

This West Garden Hotel, as long as Yu Suyun is willing to follow him for ten years, he can give it to Yu Suyun, the key is that it is useless to send it, others don't want it at all.

If you really want to follow him, it's not a West Garden Hotel, so he can't bear it.

So, make a friend first, and then talk about it later when you have a chance.

Because it is a guaranteed minimum of 600,000 words, after signing the contract, Xu Teng gave ten episodes first, and after handing in the manuscript here, Boss Song simply gave him 72,000 yuan in cash.

This was taken directly from the counter of the West Park Hotel, there were new banknotes, old banknotes, stacks of 10,000.

"Boss Song is really bold, handing over the manuscript with one hand and paying the money with the other. Yu Suyun admired the scene, smiled gently, and her voice was still soft and charming.

"I do business by credit, I will give as much as I promised, and now I say that I will give now, and I have never regretted it. Boss Song's words are quite meaningful, and he is smiling and silent.

Although it is estimated that there is little hope, the line still has to be placed.

Yu Suyun didn't seem to hear what he meant, anyway, she admired the boss's magnanimity, and was also surprised by Xu Teng's talent, so she made 70,000 yuan, which was worth her salary for two years.
