Chapter 052: Gambling Contract

In the past few years, Lin Huiyun has begged the gods and worshiped the Buddha every day, and asked the gods he knew several times a day, hoping that the author of "The Legend of Wukong" could contact him. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Every day when I'm fine, I take out my phone and stare at the screen in a daze, and now it's no exception, after dinner, lie on the sofa and watch the latest update of "The Legend of Wukong", and by the way, pray that the author can add himself as a friend.

Closing her eyes, the canopy, Ah Yue, Ah Yao, and Zixia were all living imaginations, floating in front of her eyes.

The prompt sound of the mobile phone rang suddenly, she didn't come back to her senses for a while, opened her eyes after more than ten seconds, clicked on the message and looked at it, her own prayer is still a thing, has it finally arrived, I hope it is not an illusion.

I didn't hit it twice in a row, but fortunately I added it, and I cautiously said: "Is it King's Landing?" ”

Well, when he saw this sentence, Liu Junlin could think that the opposite side was probably an employee who had not been working for a long time, but he was still amused by this sentence: "Don't call me that, just call me King's Landing!" ”

"Okay, King's Landing!" Seeing that the other party replied to herself, Lin Huiyun also breathed a long sigh of relief, and it seemed that she was still easier to speak.

The two of them said a few words to confirm their identities, and naturally talked about serious matters, and before Liu Junlin could ask, Lin Huiyun directly said her price: "Junlin is great, the editor-in-chief said that if you want to buy out, I can be sure of five hundred words, and if you are not satisfied, you can talk about it again!" ”

Liu Junlin can imagine that a rookie newcomer timidly typed out this line, lest he be dissatisfied with the price, and then refused to continue the conversation, and couldn't help but think of when he had just worked in his previous life.

What's more, the buyout price given by the other party is the highest, and it can be talked about again, it is estimated that it can talk about 1,000, of course, even if it is 1,000, Liu Junlin is still not ready to buy out.

"How does your publishing house do its shares?"

"Divided, the average newcomer is about 5%, but one day I secretly heard the editor-in-chief say that 9% starts, of course you can talk about it!" Lin Huiyun thought about it, this little secret had been pressed in her heart for a long time, and she finally said it much more comfortably, but she didn't notice that the opposite side was the author of "The Legend of Wukong".

Liu Junlin began to understand the hard work of the senior management of the publishing house, and sent a new editor over, but he was also afraid that the old fritters would be independent and smart, and they would offend themselves, I have to say that for now, I am still satisfied with this editor and the publishing house, first of all, the price is very good.

didn't reply for half a minute, Lin Huiyun over there scratched her ears and cheeks anxiously, she didn't know if she should ask, but she said too much, which led to great displeasure, if the business was yellow, wouldn't she disappoint the editor-in-chief, and the bonus would fly away.

"Well, are you still there?"

"Well, I'm here, you're the publishing house of Dragon City, I'll give you a contact information, tomorrow between 11.30 and 2.00 noon, find a place for us to talk in detail, find someone who can call the shots!" Liu Junlin still plans to give the other party a few times and talk about his thoughts.

Agreed to meet herself, Lin Huiyun felt happier than her boy dating her, so she immediately agreed, found a piece of paper to write down Liu Junlin's contact information, and recited it more than a dozen times, originally wanted to call the editor-in-chief, but the time was not early, give him a surprise tomorrow.

Carefully read the chat history again, pinched his face vigorously, made sure that it was not a dream, and rolled on the bed excitedly.

After getting up in the morning, the first thing I did was to look at Liu Junlin's contact number at the bedside, and recite it a few times, and then I began to clean up my image, hum a small tune happily, and go to work.

Other people in the company also saw that she was in high spirits, and the anxious appearance of the previous years was not the same thing at all, so they couldn't help but quip: "Xiaolin has found a boyfriend, look at how happy she is!" ”

"Not really!" Saying that, she quickly hid in her office and joked with these old fritters, she had to be ashamed to death.

Editor-in-chief Yan Guangping finally went to work, and before he took off his coat, Lin Huiyun knocked on the door and came in.

This time, "The Legend of Wukong" is for her to practice, but Longcheng Literature and Art Publishing House, compared with other publishing houses, the shortcomings are also obvious, that is, there has been no bestseller for many years, and there is a lack of experience, and people are more willing to hand over the book to those experienced big publishing houses.

Seeing Lin Huiyun's excited appearance at this time, he couldn't help but feel his heartbeat a little faster, could it be that it really came.

Lin Huiyun also explained the matter clearly, after hearing that he was going to meet at noon, Yan Guangping decided without hesitation that he would go by himself, this matter must be done, I didn't expect the author to be from Longcheng, and he can be regarded as a building near the water.

"Xiaoyun, you said that this author is called Junlin, could it be that Liu Junlin from Dragon City No. 5 Middle School?" Yan Guangping suddenly remembered and asked casually.

"It shouldn't be very old, and the time he asked us to contact is noon, this time is probably the time of the students' lunch break, I really can't say!" Lin Huiyun's head has become easier to use, and the analysis is also the Tao.

In order to avoid traffic jams at noon, Lin Huiyun sent a message to Liu Junlin at ten o'clock in the morning to make an appointment for the time and place.

Liu Junlin naturally had nothing to hide, so he just told them to find a place near Longcheng No. 5 Middle School, after all, there was not a lot of time, and he still needed to go to class in the afternoon, and he still wanted to take a break at noon.

Although the other party is a minor child, Yan Guangping and Lin Huiyun did not despise it at all, and they were able to write works such as "Bloodstained Style", how could they be measured by ordinary people.

At about half past eleven in the morning, Yan Guangping drove his own car with Lin Huiyun and appeared at the gate of Longcheng No. 5 Middle School, unsure of Liu Junlin's attitude, so he didn't enter the campus, just found an elegant and quiet restaurant nearby, and booked a private room.

When we met, it was already twelve o'clock, and the man sat down in the box and introduced himself to each other.

There is a chief editor, it seems that he can indeed speak, Lin Huiyun saw that the king of the king she shouted was just a teenager, and she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

"Junlin classmates, there are still classes, and the time is also very urgent, and I heard that Huiyun said that you plan to buy out, so let's not talk about this, okay!" Yan Guangping was not too polite, and explained his intentions straight to the point and straight to the point.

Liu Junlin still likes this style of doing things very much, and he nodded at the moment, indicating that there is indeed no need to talk about buyouts.

"If you can show that you are the author of "Bloodstained Style", we can give 11% of the share!" Yan Guangping also showed his bottom line, and talking about it is not his style of doing things, although that is indeed beneficial.

Liu Junlin didn't wait for the other party to finish speaking, and shook his head bluntly: "I'm sorry, I don't want these two to be confused, even if it's really helpful, I don't like to be tied together!" ”

"In that case, we can give up to 10% of the share, presumably King's Landing has also talked with other publishers, our conditions should be one of the best!" After Yan Guangping thought about it, he gave his own reply, he couldn't take too much risk.

It is indeed a very sincere price, Liu Junlin nodded: "Indeed, your conditions are the best, and the other highest share is only 7%!" ”

"Well, you mean, we're just making a verbal promise!" Yan Guangping was overjoyed, he didn't expect it to be so smooth.

"No, no, no, Editor-in-Chief Yan listen to me, I don't know how many copies you plan to print for the first time?"

"According to Wukong's biography, the current popularity, 50,000 copies is no problem!" Yan Guangping trusts his vision very much.

Unconsciously knocked on the table, Liu Junlin's brain turned a few times quickly, and he immediately made up his mind: "This book is only about 200,000 words, my idea is this, if the sales are within 100,000 copies, then I will buy it out at the price of 200 words per 1,000 words; If it's between 100,000 and 200,000 copies, then I'll take a 5% share; If it's between 20-500,000 copies, I'm asking for a 7% cut; Between 50 and 100 copies, I ask for a 10% share; If there are more than 1 million copies, a 15% share should be fine! ”

Yan Guangping looked at Liu Junlin, with a faint smile on his face, obviously very confident in his works, and his current psychological side is also a little stable, anyway, if he buys out 200 words within 100,000 copies, he will definitely earn it.

"We will share the remuneration according to the meaning of King's Landing, as long as the corresponding goal is achieved, we will start from the first book sold!" Yan Guangping simply settled, and the two of them high-fived three times, which can be regarded as an agreement.

In just ten minutes, the business involving millions of Huaxia coins was settled, and Lin Huiyun was relaxed and happy, fantasizing that she would have a day and be able to reach this point.
