Chapter 19: Refusal to Sign!
The next day, Qin Ye opened the author's background as usual, but found that he had received a short message from the website. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
He clicked on this message and found that it was a website that wanted to sign a contract for his work.
"Hello, your work has been submitted for contract by the main site supernatural editor Peach, please add the contracted editor Papaya (PP number: ********) as a friend through PP to negotiate the contract. When you add friends, please indicate the information title: "Notes on Tomb Robbery", Author: Qin Ye, during the negotiation of the contract, try to keep it updated stably. ”
Seeing the short signing station sent by the website, Qin Ye was not surprised.
"Tomb Robbery Notes" is in its own world, but it is a phenomenal work, if it can't be signed in this world, it can only mean that there is a problem with the editorial review of the website.
is saying that the online literature in this world is still in its infancy, and the VIP system of works has only been implemented for a long time, Qin Ye has great confidence in his works.
"What is the PP number? Isn't it a QQ number? ”
There is no QQ in this world, so Qin Ye had no choice but to download the PP chat software.
He didn't apply for an account, and directly logged in to his previous QQ number, and he tried it, and he really let him log in successfully.
After Qin Ye learned about it, he found that this PP account was almost the same as the QQ gameplay in his world, and Qin Ye's previous QQ friends also all existed on this PP number.
Qin Ye clicked on a list, and there was only one friend in this list, and that was Qin Ye's ex-girlfriend Tang Shiyan.
How many things in the past are like a breeze, but looking back at the moment, things are wrong.
Blocked and deleted this woman from his list, and after Qin Ye did this, he began to add PP friends who signed up to edit papaya.
Soon, the other side agreed to Qin Ye's friend request.
"Hello editor, I am Qin Ye, the author of "Notes on Tomb Robbery", how can I sign a contract with our website?"
After Qin Ye successfully added friends, he sent a message to Papaya.
"Hello, I'm Papaya, the contracted editor, and I'm in charge of your signing this time." The other end soon came back with news.
After Qin Ye and her were briefly polite, Papaya asked some other questions about "Notes on Tomb Robbery", and then sent Qin Ye an electronic version of the signing contract.
Qin Ye looked at the contract carefully, this is an ordinary A-signed contract, after the work is signed with the website, the website will give some recommendations to its own works to increase the exposure of the work, but in the same way, the website has the full copyright of the work.
Seeing this, Qin Ye's brows suddenly furrowed slightly.
"The website owns full copyright to its own work? This means that the copyright of the work I worked so hard to write is not in my hands, but is pinched by the website? Similarly, if you want to sell the copyright, you can only sell it through the website, and you, the author, can't make a decision? ”
Qin Ye immediately quit, you must know that "Tomb Robbery Notes" in his own world, but later became a super IP, not only was it made into a movie, but other industries that were bred also blossomed everywhere.
Qin Ye chose to write "Notes on Tomb Robbery", first, this work is a super-phenomenal work in his world, and he himself likes this work.
The second point is that Qin Ye wants to keep it and use it to make movies by himself in the future, and make a "Tomb Robbery Notes" in his heart.
Of course, if Qin Ye was just a newcomer who had just stepped into the online literature world, then he would definitely not hesitate to sign the A-level contract of this website.
But today's Qin Ye obviously won't do this, he has a super sense of copyright, so he won't be short-sighted enough to give up his copyright to others.
"Papaya editor, is there a contract where the author can own his own copyright?"
Qin Ye asked the papaya editor, how much the manuscript fee is a trivial matter for Qin Ye, but the copyright must be in his own hands, which is very important to Qin Ye.
Even if the website does not give Qin Ye a manuscript fee, as long as he agrees to let him own the copyright of "Notes on Tomb Robbery", then Qin Ye is also willing to sign a contract with the website.
"I'm sorry, but there isn't such a contract yet." Papaya replied.
"So if I don't sign a contract with the website and just publish the work on the website, does the copyright belong to me?"
Qin Ye asked again, he had to ask clearly about copyright.
Facing a rookie author like Qin Ye, who is "high-eyed and high-handed", the papaya editor suddenly felt a little impatient.
She has been in the online literature circle for so long, and she hasn't seen any new authors, and a work has become popular, as for the copyright, even if it is given to you, can you be sure that you will be able to write the work into fire?
The most important thing for newcomers is to learn, learn more about the works of the great gods, and less ambitious. That's how you can progress.
A rookie author like Qin Ye, who cares about copyright as soon as he signs a contract, has seen a lot of papaya.
Most of them can't escape the fate of hitting the streets.
But out of the professional ethics of a big website editor, although Papaya was impatient with Qin Ye in her heart, she still replied to Qin Ye:
"It stands to reason that it is. However, if the work does not sign a contract with the website, it will not be able to get the recommendation position of the website, and the exposure of the work will also be greatly reduced. ”
Qin Ye also understood at this moment, as long as he did not sign a contract with the website, although the work was published on the website, the author still owned the copyright of the work.
Knowing this, Qin Ye already knew what he should do.
"I'm sorry, I don't want to sign a contract for the time being, and I'm really troublesome to edit today." After Qin Ye finished typing, he directly sent the message to Papaya.
Qin Ye wrote this "Notes on Tomb Robbery", the main reason is to increase his fame, after all, if you want to become a world-renowned star, the key is to look at your popularity.
Although if the work is not signed with the website, it will not be able to get the recommendation position of the website, and there will be no manuscript fee, but these are nothing compared with the copyright of "Tomb Robbery Notes".
is saying that Qin Ye has a way to write his works on fire.
"Not signing a contract?"
Another city in the distant sky, the headquarters building of Angel Chinese, the office area of the editors. After seeing the message sent by Qin Ye, the contracted editor Papaya suddenly felt a burst of fire.
"Tell me, how arrogant are the new authors now, and they are all putting up scores in front of the editor."
The more the papaya editor thought about it, the more angry she became, what she usually hated the most was an author like Qin Ye, who was only a rookie author, but she always fantasized that she could become a god in one book and be famous for eternity.
"If you don't sign it, you won't sign it, we're too lazy to sign you. There are times when you regret it! The papaya editor muttered angrily, she simply closed Qin Ye's chat interface, and didn't bother to reply to him.
"What's the matter, who made our beautiful editor so angry?"
At the desk opposite the papaya editor, the peach editor held a cup of coffee in his hand and said with a smile at the papaya.
The peach editor and the papaya editor are college classmates, and they are girlfriends on weekdays, because their majors are related to literature, so after graduation, they came to Angel Chinese Network to become editors.
"What do you still say, isn't it still the "Tomb Robbery Notes" you said today, this guy has a big heart, as soon as he heard that the copyright was not in his hands after signing the contract, he immediately refused to sign a contract with us! I think this kid is a good eye! Papaya said angrily, she was really angry with Qin Ye today.
She is in charge of signing contracts with the website, usually when signing with others, those authors are scrambling to sign a contract with the website, the author of this "Tomb Robbery Notes" is good, directly refused to sign a contract with the website, and talked about copyright with himself, he really regards himself as a god?
Speaking of Qin Ye, the woodwind editor was suddenly angry.
"Oh, and such a thing?" The peach editor also didn't expect that Qin Ye would refuse to sign the contract, and at this moment, her delicate little face also fell silent.
"I see, you just like him too much, what good works can a person like him write?"
The papaya editor said, changed the conversation, and continued, "I see, in the past few years, supernatural novels, "Ghost Knocks on the Door" can be seen, "Tomb Robbery Notes"? Hehe, you can't be popular when you hear this name! ”
"Let's work."
The peach editor didn't go to build papaya, but put down the coffee in his hand and continued to review the work.
The papaya editor saw that the other party didn't answer her words, so she continued to work with great interest, but she knew in her heart that her classmate was good at everything, but it felt too cold. Otherwise, just like a girl with such an outstanding papaya temperament and such a beautiful person, how can she be single all the time...
As for her best friend's thoughts, the papaya editor didn't know at all, she was dragging her chin with one hand at the moment, and the other hand was sliding on the mouse, and finally the pointer of the mouse clicked on the "Tomb Robbery Notes".
After reading the latest chapter of "Notes on Tomb Robbery", Papaya was obviously a little unsatisfied, she looked at the word Qin Ye on the author's name, and muttered to herself:
"Why don't you sign up with a website.....
PS: Thank you for the reward from the god-level harmless brother.
