Chapter 542 [Settle accounts after the autumn!] 】

Home.

At the dinner table, a family of three was eating dumplings.

Radio and television released the news of the list of new bad artists, Zhang Ye was told by a call from his eldest sister, and he knew that such a big event had happened, so he hurriedly went online to take a look, and he was immediately happy.

My mother asked, "What is your sister looking for you?" ”

Zhang Ye smiled: "Radio and television have lifted the ban on me." ”

"When?" When my mother heard this, she also put down her chopsticks.

"Just now, I'm not on the list now." Zhang Ye was in a very high mood, picked up the chopsticks and stuffed two leek-stuffed dumplings into his stomach.

Dad didn't eat anymore, and said, "That means, starting today, no one cares about you whether you are on TV, doing programs, or publishing?" ”

Mom said happily: "Of course, who cares if the ban is lifted!" Great, how many days have it been, and it's finally been released for my son, Xiao Ye, did Director Wu help you? ”

"Definitely." Zhang Ye said.

Mom knocked on the table, "This Director Wu is really interesting!" You go back and ask people to come over for dinner, I'll cook it myself, thank them well. ”

Dad interjected: "You're almost there, how old is Director Wu, why would he come to our house for dinner, and people sent you this meal?" ”

"That's true, please don't move." Mom said.

The father looked at his son, "When I look back, I remember to thank Director Wu." ”

Zhang Ye said: "I understand, you two don't care." ”

……

Afternoon.

As soon as the ban was lifted, a call came.

I don't know the number, but the person over there is a female voice.

"Hey, is it Teacher Zhang Ye?"

"It's me, who are you?" Zhang Ye went back to his bedroom to answer the phone.

"Hello Mr. Zhang, my name is Li Mei, and I am from Oriental Publishing House." There was some caution in the other party's tone, and he shouldn't be too old.

Zhang Ye suddenly, "Publishing house? Oh, what's wrong? ”

Li Mei pinched her tone and said softly: "That's the case, I want to ask first, is the copyright of your "The Legend of Wukong" still in your hands?" We just finished a meeting, especially want to do your book, I don't know if we have the honor to cooperate with you, well, you may not know much about our publishing house, I slightly you nag a word, we may not be so famous in the industry, the scale is not as good as the Beijing Education Publishing House and other places, but our funds and publicity, but definitely not worse than any big publishing house, "The Legend of Wukong" if you leave it to us, I can assure you, we will definitely use the maximum resources to promote and operate. ”

Zhang Ye smiled: "The copyright hasn't been sold yet, but I want to wait first, don't worry." ”

"Teacher Zhang." Li Mei said anxiously: "If you have time, can we meet and talk?" I know you're busy, anytime, on your tracks. ”

Zhang Ye pushed, "Let's talk about it." ”

As soon as the phone hung up, someone from the South China Publishing House called again.

It's a gay man, "Mr. Zhang, we read your new novel and like it very much, can you talk about the simplified copyright of "The Legend of Wukong"? ”

Zhang Ye still said: "Let's not talk about it today, let's talk about it." ”

The man immediately said: "You can mention the price, I will report it to the above, if it is okay, we will sign the contract, we will immediately put into publicity, help you build momentum for this book, now there are so many topics about you in the country, and it is in the heat, we want to take advantage of this popularity to sell "The Legend of Wukong", the sales will definitely be able to go up, if it drags on, the heat will be reduced...... It's a pity, if you think it's appropriate, can we meet? ”

Zhang Ye left room to speak: "I'll think about it again." ”

The man said: "Okay, if you have the intention of publishing, please contact us first, we dare not say the first or second in the industry, but it must be the most professional and veteran publishing team." ”

There were four or five phone calls in a row, all from the publishing house.

Zhang Yequan said a few perfunctory words and hung up.

There are also some publishing houses that may not have Zhang Ye's contact information, so they all send messages through guò meager private chats, post it, etc., all expressing their desire to publish "The Legend of Wukong", and some publishing houses also want to buy the copyright of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" and the resale copyright of "Zhang Ye's Anthology" that have been returned to Zhang Ye due to breach of contract, and even give quotations, there are many, there are few, and so on.

Zhang Ye didn't reply here, it's not that he doesn't want to publish, he doesn't have much money now, and he's still waiting for this rice to go to the pot, but after the previous incident, Zhang Ye's trust in the publishing house has been greatly reduced, and the two publishing houses that used to have a very good relationship with him, this time when something happened, the ban order, one by one, they all found Zhang Ye to ask for liquidated damages, and Zhang Ye's face was unobstructed, although Zhang Ye also understood them, after all, radio and television were their superior departments, and they couldn't help but implement them. But of course Zhang Ye was uncomfortable in his heart, especially for the Beijing Education Publishing House, he even kept this account in mind, even if you had a reason, even if you were catering to the higher-level departments, there were no millions of liquidated damages, right? Oh, this is a great way to do things!

As a result, Cao Cao Cao came.

At about two o'clock, Zhang Kui, the editor-in-chief of the Beijing Education Publishing House, called, and blew up his house as soon as he came up, indicating his identity.

Zhang Ye smiled, "Is there something to do with me?" ”

Zhang Kui was the initiator of the liquidated damages with Zhang Ye that time, and the reason why he did it to the point of tearing his face that time was mainly due to the blocking order, their publishing house thought that Zhang Ye would definitely disappear from the entertainment industry and never appear again, so he thought about making a final profit, and it was also a little bit of a loss, after all, many of the "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" that had been printed was removed from the shelves and returned, but in fact, their publishing house knew that they did not have any loss, but also made a lot of money, "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" The act of asking for liquidated damages in the end is actually squeezing out the last drop of Zhang Ye's blood and trying to squeeze out his last value.

But who would have thought that the development of things was beyond Zhang Kui's expectations, Zhang Ye not only did not leave the public eye after the ban, but his popularity skyrocketed, appearing every day, and even two hours ago, radio and television actually removed Zhang Ye's name from the list of bad artists, which obviously surprised Zhang Kui and did not expect it, he knew this, he would definitely not have done such a desperate thing in the first place!

Zhang Kui turned a lot of thoughts in his heart, but he smiled and said: "Teacher Zhang, we may have had some misunderstandings before, in fact, the liquidated damages we asked for at that time were to give an explanation to the above, you should be able to understand, many things we can't help ourselves, the ban order at that time was the strictest in history, no one dared to slack off, hehe, it's okay now, congratulations to Mr. Zhang on returning to the entertainment industry, we have already guessed that with your ability and ability, you will come back sooner or later, let's It's time to continue working together. ”

Zhang Ye smiled, "Continue to cooperate?" ”

"Hmm." Zhang Kui said to himself: "The 3.5 million liquidated damages last time were a formality, a formality, and now that you have lifted the ban, the liquidated damages can naturally be returned to you, the copyright of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", the publishing house will re-sign it back, your new work "The Legend of Wukong", we will continue to cooperate, work together to promote "The Legend of Wukong", and do it, I will personally be responsible for this matter." ”

Zhang Ye understood what this meant.

As long as they hand over the publication of "The Legend of Wukong" to their publishing house, they will return the previous liquidated damages, and continue to get back the simplified copyright of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", in other words, if Zhang Ye's new book is not signed to them, and if the copyright of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is not re-given to them, the 3.5 million liquidated damages will naturally not be returned!

This is hanging Zhang Ye with money, trying to force him to sign a contract!

Zhang Ye was still thinking about when to settle accounts with them after the autumn, but he didn't expect the other party to find him first, and he came to coerce and lure? Do you still want the copyright of his new book?

Ha!

Zhang Ye said directly: "Editor Zhang, when I knew that you asked for 3.5 million liquidated damages, why did I call you without thinking about it?" ”

"Huh?" Zhang Kui was stunned, in fact, this matter has always been wondered by their publishing house, it stands to reason that if anyone is changed, it is impossible to agree so happily, or not to give, or to bargain, I have never seen Zhang Ye give money so happily.

"Because." Zhang Ye said: "The losses that your publishing house will face will far exceed the three and a half million yuan!" So I was happy to give it, and I was happy to give it! "This product is the character of revenge, he was chased and beaten to that point by the Beijing Education Publishing House, and it is obviously not Zhang Ye's style if he doesn't return it, eat me, I don't need you to spit it back, I'm not short of this money, I will let it stop in your stomach, and it will be uncomfortable for the rest of your life!

Zhang Kui's face sank, obviously he didn't believe it, and he still lost? What can they lose, even if they can't talk about "The Legend of Wukong", they can't make this money at most, how can there be losses? Oh, inexplicable!

The phone hung up.

……

The other side.

Beijing Education Press.

Zhang Kui smiled and began to deal with today's work, not taking Zhang Ye's words to heart at all, it is a pity that there is a lack of a copy of "The Legend of Wukong", but their publishing house will not stop transferring because they can't sign this book.

However, things were obviously not as simple as Zhang Kui thought, he never expected that Zhang Ye's words would come true immediately, and they would come so quickly!

An hour later, the Beijing Education Publishing House received a rectification notice from the higher authorities and a shocking review notice!

The whole publishing house is in a mess!

"How could it be!"

"What? This ......"

"Why is this happening!?"

More than a dozen publications of their publishing house have been ordered to be taken off the shelves!

"Widow's Spring".

"Milk".

"Tang Dazhang Crosstalk Collection - Audio-visual Products".

"Selected 100 Crosstalk Films - Audio-visual Products".

And so on, all of them have been cut, and most of them have just been released, and even Tang Dazhang's cross talk collection is the copyright they just bought, and they just spent a lot of resources and funds to publicize, the discs have been carved out, the packaging has been done, and it hasn't had time to sell it yet, how can you say that it is banned? They took a look at the instructions given by the higher authorities, some because the content of the novel involved sensitive-sensitive information, and some because of suspected plagiarism and illegal words in the cross talk paragraphs!

Urgently convene a meeting!

The top management of the publishing house is here!

Zhang Kui was really anxious this time, "How did you do it?" Is this really the problem? ”

A female deputy editor-in-chief said restlessly: "I just asked people to check, and the reason given by the superior for the removal is indeed zài, but the situation is very slight, and it is ...... In the past, this kind of Cheng dù stuff was fine, and other publishing houses were doing it, so why did it suddenly censor it this time? ”

Another asked, "What about other publishers?" Did you get a takedown notice? ”

A young man said: "I just asked, everything else is fine, and the one who received the rectification notice and the large-scale takedown notice is our publishing house!" ”

Everyone was stunned, "This ......"

Zhang Kui said loudly: "Contact immediately, communicate with the above, and see if there is room for relaxation, this batch of novels and audio-visual products must not be taken off the shelves!" No publisher can afford this loss! If necessary, some clips can be abridged according to the above regulations, but they must be guaranteed to be sold normally! ”

A middle-aged man in charge of the matter immediately went to public relations, but he returned to the conference room ten minutes later, but his face was gloomy.

A high-level said: "How's it going?" ”

The person in charge inhaled and said: "No, those named works must be taken off the shelves, and they can't be modified, there is no room for negotiation, and ...... Do it today! ”

Zhang Kui was stunned, "Modification can't be done?" ”

The person in charge shook his head, "I need to wait for the notice when I can approve it again, but an acquaintance secretly told me not to have too much hope." ”

Zhang Kui slapped the table angrily, "Why! ”

A middle-aged editor said: "Isn't this bullying! ”

"There is a new leader above, and the new official must take action, let's ...... Caught typical? But why us? ”

There was a lot of depression and complaints in the conference room, and everyone panicked!

This is more than a dozen excellent works, especially those cross talk collections, after this cross talk competition, although the competition was suspended, but because of Zhang Ye's wonderful cross talk that surpassed this era, it actually brought the entire cross talk industry to a new level, more and more popular, more and more attention, so they spent a lot of money to make a batch of cross sound products with the east wind, but now they haven't sold a single disc, and they have been banned? This is nightmare news for their Beijing Education Press!

Finished!

It's a big loss this time!

Just counting these works and CDs in my hands, the loss is more than one million, this is still a small head, as well as the copyright that has been pressed, as well as the publicity fees, and the resources used, this loss is already immeasurable, more than a few million! That's going to cost tens of millions!

And not only the loss of money, but also the reputation, reputation, and the golden sign of their publishing house will also plummet, and I think that this incident will definitely cause them to lose a large number of authors. Why? Because other people's publishing houses don't have anything, and they are all good, so you have a problem with the Beijing Education Press? Banned by the censorship department, banned this and that? This obviously gives the authors a feeling of instability, everyone will think that your publishing house is not in place in public relations, it is too dangerous to publish here in you, today cut other people's cross talk discs, will tomorrow cut their own works? The next work may not be signed by them! Therefore, this loss of credibility is countless times worse than the loss of money, which shakes their foundation!

How much more than heavy losses??

The female deputy editor-in-chief was suddenly stunned, "Could this matter be related to Zhang Ye's lifting of the ban?" Our publishing house was a little ruthless against Zhang Ye at the beginning. ”

"Zhang Ye?"

"Is that him?"

"That's right, the new leader used to be from Peking University!"

"Is it really Zhang Ye settling accounts after the autumn? How could he have this energy! ”

There are a few people who are very anxious!

Zhang Kui also thought of Zhang Ye's phone call at this time, and thought of the "bold words" that Zhang Ye put down, now that he thinks about it, Zhang Kui's heart is cold, he doesn't know if this matter was planned by Zhang Ye, but he knows that this matter definitely has something to do with Zhang Ye!

The female deputy editor-in-chief sighed, paused, and sighed again, "I mentioned Jian Yì at the beginning, there should be a glimmer of leeway, even if Zhang Ye is blocked, it can't be ...... He's too wicked to be able to use common sense, and alas, it's too late to say anything now. ”

The huge amount of liquidated damages demanded that time was indeed not very authentic to their publishing house, and now it seems that their publishing house may have really made a fatal mistake, because they have done everything to the end, and the director has no room for maneuver now!

"What should I do?"

"If it's really going to be taken off the shelves, we won't have the funds to operate anymore, and these losses can't be made up, and after a while, the author will definitely lose a large number of them!"

"Damn it!"

"Editor-in-chief Zhang, you have to think of a way!"

If the gap can't be filled, all of them will be responsible!

Zhang Kui didn't say a word, he knew that there was no way at all, at this moment, he also had a trace of regret in his heart, a thought was wrong, it actually brought a ruining blow to their publishing house, and his future may also be ruined, no need to ask to know that the position of editor-in-chief will definitely be changed in the future, the cause and effect of these is the 3.5 million liquidated damages? Now that you think about it, what kind of money is your mother's money! It's only 3.5 million! This is money that no major publishing house would take too seriously, and as a result, because of this, their current tangible and intangible losses add up...... It may be ten times more than ten times more than that money!

Is it worth it?

It's definitely not worth it!

But when document No. 43 was just issued some time ago, who would have thought that Zhang Ye would not be affected, and now he is back in the entertainment industry! I knew this, what liquidated damages did I ask him for, what money did I ask him for, if I had given charcoal in the snow at that time, not only would the publishing house not suffer such a big disaster, but the new book of "The Legend of Wukong" would definitely have been signed to their publishing house, and it would definitely make them a lot of money. And what about them? ended the relationship with Zhang Ye early, and fell into the well, and now it has become such a situation!

Zhang Kui slapped the table again and said, "Try to recover the loss!" ”

"What do you mean?" The female deputy editor-in-chief asked.

Zhang Kui grimaced and said, "The copyright fee, how much can be recovered, how much can be recovered!" ”

……

Another place.

Tang Dazhang was watching TV at home, ringing ring, and the phone came.

"Hey, Mr. Tang, I'm Xiao Yan from the Beijing Education Publishing House."

"Oh, hehe, hello Xiaoyan, what are you looking for me? The cross talk album is about to be sold? ”

"No, uh, there's something wrong with your cross talk set, and the relevant departments at the higher level have already made a takedown notice, so ...... That's why we're contacting you to talk about the royalties in the first place. ”

"Off the shelves?"

"Yes, just got noticed."

"You want royalties back?"

"Yes, we ......"

"It's your problem that it's not published, what does it have to do with me?"

"After all, it was your work that went wrong, which led to the removal of zhì, and it is impossible for our publishing house to bear all the losses, don't you say?"

"Needless to say, it can't be."

"Mr. Tang, you are also a leader in the cross talk industry, this ......"

"I said, it has nothing to do with me, and the copyright fee cannot be refunded to you."

"The contract states that this is the case, if you do that, I can only talk to the legal department, and I can only leave it to the lawyer to solve it."

"Okay, I'll wait!"

hung up the line, Tang Dazhang had a dark face and was troubled, didn't he look at the yellow calendar these days? How can you be so unlucky? Just knowing the news of Zhang Ye's lifting of the ban at noon made him feel bad, and now there is such a heartwarming thing! Maybe a lawsuit? Depend on! I'm messing with someone these days!

Meanwhile.

Some cross talk actors who have bought the copyright by the Beijing Education Publishing House have received calls one after another, asking them to return the original copyright fees.

One of Tang Dazhang's apprentices: "What? No way! ”

An old cross talk actor who had boycotted Zhang Ye before, "Don't even think about it!" ”

There is also the author of "The Widow's Spring", who is also a writer who has always questioned Zhang Ye in the literary world, and this time he is also on the list of delistings. Of course he didn't say yes!

All sides are scolding!

All kinds of tearing!

The Beijing Education Publishing House and Tang Dazhang and others got into a fight, and this matter was still on some self-media news in the afternoon of the same day, and some newspapers also published it in inconspicuous corners.

……

at home.

Zhang Ye also saw these news, and saw that these masters who had found trouble for themselves at the beginning were now scolding with their throats, you bite me and I bite yours, he also spread his hands, and then he stopped paying attention, feeling too boring, humming a little song and sitting in front of the computer, and continued to write about "The Legend of Wukong".

This account can be settled with them! The publishing house is not very authentic, and now it seems that their publishing house may have really made a fatal mistake, because they have done everything to the extreme, and the director has no room for maneuver now!

"What should I do?"

"If it's really going to be taken off the shelves, we won't have the funds to operate anymore, and these losses can't be made up, and after a while, the author will definitely lose a large number of them!"

"Damn it!"
