Qin Ming was overjoyed in his heart, and there was hope for publication. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

His heart was excited, but his face was unwavering. Although it is his first time here, he has so many years of experience in social work in his previous life, and he knows that if your emotions are easily revealed, it is easy for the other party to understand your details and put yourself in a passive position.

Therefore, whether it is for the future development or to obtain greater benefits from the negotiation now, he must suppress the ecstasy and excitement in his heart and learn to control his emotions.

"So, now on to the issue of publication prices. What is the price in your mind? Li Chen put down the original manuscript in his hand and looked at Qin Mingdao with a serious expression.

"I want 20% of the revenue from each book published by Digimon, and the copyright is still my own." Qin Ming looked at Li Chen with a firm look in his eyes and said slowly.

"No way, it's impossible for the company to give you 20% of the publishing revenue, even if it's 15%, not to mention that the copyright is still with you." When Li Chen heard this, he refused directly without thinking about it.

Yes, Qin Ming's comics are indeed very good, and the story structure is clear, the plot is exciting and interesting, and the characters are also very good. At the same time, Li Chen has also witnessed the hot attention and popularity of Digimon on the Internet, but you have to remember that this is always the publishing house. It is a nationally renowned publishing house. They have their own large and complex circle of interests. 20% of the publishing income has touched the bottom line of the distribution of this big cake, not to mention that the copyright is still Qin Ming's.

Qin Ming's face was embarrassed, and the expression on his face changed complicatedly.

In his opinion, although 20% of the publishing revenue is already high for a publishing house, Digimon has the value to be able to handle this income. In the previous life, "Digimon" was a hit not only in the manga but also in the anime field, and it was filmed 6 times in a row. And it also has a great influence in the field of merchandise sales and games.

Just like in his previous life, the Tyrannosaurus machine that Qin Ming played when he was a child was actually a kind of game around "Digimon", not to mention that the Tyrannosaurus machine had earned an astonishing sales of more than $60 million. Remember, it was $60 million in 2000, which is equivalent to hundreds of millions today.

So Qin Ming has always been very confident in this, but he didn't expect that the beginning of the negotiations would be a tragic Waterloo.

"Well, so be it. I bought your copyright for 200,000 yuan, which is already a very high price for a newcomer. Li Chen looked at Qin Ming, who had a complicated expression and hadn't spoken for a long time, and couldn't help but sigh.

200,000 can be said to be the highest ceiling that Li Chen can decide to give to newcomers, which is still the premise that Li Chen is very optimistic about "Digimon". Digimon may indeed be fun and popular. But publishing houses have to enter the market after all. Only when the market accepts it, it is a popular work and a best-selling work. Otherwise, it's just some failure. Secondly, it is the first time that a comic work in this form has appeared in society, so even if he has been an editor for more than ten years, he can't be sure of what will happen after it reaches the market.

Now, Li Chen can only hope that Qin Ming can make a wise choice and sell the copyright. After all, he was very optimistic about this talented young man.

Qin Ming took a deep breath, looked at the kind editor in front of him, shook his head, and said.

"Not for sale."

Qin Ming thought about it for a long time, and finally sorted out the doorway here. He understands that Li Chen is for his good, and at the same time, he also knows very well that the comics have indeed not been accepted by this world, and the market reaction is indeed difficult to estimate, but Qin Ming is very clear about the value of "Digimon", so his copyright will not be sold.

"Then, then I'll see if I can apply to the company for a bigger reward for you" Li Chen rubbed his swollen temples, and said in his heart Why is this guy so inflexible, forget it, I'll help him, after all, I can't bear to see such a talented young man frustrated because of this, and I can't afford it.

"Jingle jingle bell." As soon as Li Chen took out his mobile phone, before he could dial it, a call came in.

"Eun, yes, okay, I see, I know how to do it." Li Chen listened to the phone, the expression on his face was complicated and changeable, and he looked at Qin Ming from time to time.

Li Chen took a deep breath, as if he wanted to expel all the turbidity in his body, and said slowly.

"Let's go, our publishing house won't help you publish comics, and you don't have to go to other publishing houses, no publishing house will dare to help you. I had something to do, so I left first. As soon as the words fell, Li Chen got up and prepared to leave, looking a little gloomy from his back.

"You, can you tell me why?" Qin Ming looked at Li Chen, didn't understand why his attitude changed so much after answering a phone call, and told him that other publishing houses didn't dare to help him publish?

Li Chen stood at the door of the reception room, as if he was thinking about something.

After a long time, he turned around, looked at Qin Ming with an ugly face, pointed his finger at the ceiling, and said.

"That's what it means, they said that the comics you created have caused dissatisfaction among some giants in the political and art circles, so they decided to ban you, and you won't have a chance to publish it." As a veteran employee who has been working in the World Publishing House for more than ten years, Li Chen can still understand the implicit meaning of the leader's words, but now he only has the sorrow for the fall of genius in his heart.

When Qin Ming heard this, his face changed, and he lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking.

Gionee Press.

Shanghua Publishing House.

……

After Qin Ming left the Publishing House, he searched for 6 or 7 publishing houses in a row, but all of them were turned away. Some publishing houses even heard that he came to contribute "Digimon" at the beginning, and they welcomed him very warmly, but Qin Ming was kicked out not long after.

I'm sorry!

This is what Qin Ming has heard the most times today.

Looking at the thick dark clouds in the sky, Qin Ming's mood seemed to be the same as the color of the sky, dim, and he couldn't see a ray of sunlight.

"Tick, tick." At first, it was just a drop of rain falling on the ground. After a few tens of seconds, it suddenly turned into a downpour. The whole city seemed to be shrouded in water, the sky, and the streets seemed to be in a strange atmosphere, and all the noise disappeared, leaving only the ticking sound of raindrops falling into the earth.

Qin Ming lowered his head, letting the heavy rain wash over his thin body, and walked hobbly. When passing by the newspaper, the afterglow of his eyes swept over today's newspaper, and his body was shocked.

"Today, the famous painter Qi Lian'an in the Chinese painting art industry, in the public meeting, denounced the popular "Digimon" on the Internet and those imitation comic books are simply unsightly, and the painting form of his comics is a kind of rebellious existence that challenges the tradition."

"Digimon has been banned by giants in the art industry, where should the manga go?"

"Manga is simply an unsightly thing, and if you look at the so-called fancomics that imitate Digimon, such as "Strange Baby" and "Demon in Digimon's Skin", the content is not only full of blood and violence, but also a vent of social dissatisfaction. We should ban the circulation of comics! Block the existence of comics! ”

……

Looking at the various negative reports on the comics in the newspapers, among which the giants personally banned him, Qin Ming's face couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Although there have been many so-called brick families in the traditional cultural world who have called beasts to deliberately smear him, after Qin Ming released the "Declaration of the Weak", those water armies that specialize in hacking Qin Ming have been repelled by many comic lovers. He thought that those people had given up on targeting him, but who knew that he suddenly held back such a big move.

Qin Ming raised his head and looked at the layers of dark clouds in the sky, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"By targeting me, you show that my comics can indeed threaten your real interests. That shows that everything I've done so far has really been in vain. Since you are strong, you have the claws that can easily obliterate me; I am weak and have nothing. So, let me fight as a weakling! Since ancient times, the strong can suppress the weak, but the weak can destroy the strong! ”

"So, are you ready as a strong man? I will hunt you down as a weakling! ”

Qin Ming clenched his fists and muttered.

The rain is getting heavier and heavier, but public opinion in society is also getting more and more intense.
