The next day, Liu Xuan received a lot of very important phone calls. Therefore, today is destined to be busy.

At the invitation of Lu Fengxian, he came to Spring City Literature and Art, and it was not yet nine o'clock at this time.

At the dinner table, there was food and wine.

There were people sitting all around the table. Six people. There is a literary and artistic side in Chuncheng, and there is a party of Liu Xuan. On the literary and artistic side of Chuncheng, there are Ding Yuan, Lu Fengxian, and Zhang Wenyuan. Liu Xuan has Liu Xuan on his side, and Zhang Xiaofei is about immortality.

Today, Guan Changsheng and Zhang Xiaofei were arrested by Liu Xuan again.

At this time, the six of them really meant to drink, and the original intention was to negotiate.

Drink for better negotiations. After all, China's national conditions are like this! A lot of big contracts are negotiated at the wine table. The negotiations were for the early publication of The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.

Delicious first, the issue of negotiation is put aside, full of food, enough to drink, the most important thing is to have enough to negotiate. Because if you drink enough, you will become drunk, your energy will be relaxed, and you will not think so deeply and far in the face of negotiation conditions. Moreover, some of the contract hooks are not so clear...... Of course, if you want to cooperate for a long time, it is best not to play tricks on contracts.

Ding Yuan, as a senior and also the host, got up and set the tone of the drink.

Lu Fengxian, as the second-in-command of Chuncheng's literary and artistic side, is responsible for enlivening the atmosphere.

Zhang Wenyuan's task is a bit heavy, and he is responsible for persuading alcohol.

Liu Xuan's side. They didn't think so much, they should drink, they should eat, they should drink well, they should eat a lot, they are willful! As for the next negotiations, the soldiers will cover up the water and soil. What's more, Liu Xuan has the confidence to make the Chuncheng literary and artistic side dare not make some "ghostly" tricks on the contract.

At this time, the drinking party of the six-person meeting began.

Liu Xuan was toasted with the first glass of wine. It was Ding Yuan who respected him. Ding Yuan took Liu Xuan's hand and said very kindly, "The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and one generation is stronger than the next!" The words.

Liu Xuan faced his predecessors, the truly respected seniors, of course, he couldn't take what he said for granted, he had to be humble, and he had to pay homage to others. No, at the beginning, Liu Xuan drank two cups. Of course, Ding Yuan also has two cups.

Lu Fengxian is here. He said to Liu Xuan with emotion: "The plan can't catch up with the fast change!" The words. Liu Xuan understood his words.

Don't? The original plan was that "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl" would not be seen to readers until the day of Qixi Festival, that is, on the ninth day of August in the Gregorian calendar this year. But the disturbance of some people on the Internet made Liu Xuan and Chuncheng Literature and Art have to change their plans to accompany the market and publish on the first day of the seventh month of the Gregorian calendar.

It's just that in this way, there is a lot less time for Spring City's literary and artistic publicity. However, the fortunate thing in the misfortune is that Liu Xuan's pen name Xuan Degong has driven the promotion of "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl" on the Internet. It is even better and more effective than the propaganda that the literary and artistic side of Spring City has spent a lot of effort on......

After sighing, as peers, the two toasted each other. This is the third and fourth glass of wine that Liu Xuan has drunk.

Zhang Wenyuan is here. For Zhang Wenyuan, it can be said that he is Liu Xuan's old acquaintance. I still remember that Liu Xuan at the award ceremony of the "Let the City Go Out" activity, Zhang Wenyuan looked like a little bird in the form of a human, how unbearable it was to laugh!

Zhang Wenyuan came over with a smug smile on his face. His eyes were shining, as if he was worshipping, and he seemed to exaggerate and said to Liu Xuan: "Brother Liu is so powerful!" Brother Liu's article is so powerful! The art of scolding is like this, and so is the art of hurting Zhongyong. I have gossip that he was taken back to school by his parents that night. Originally, Yehan didn't want to go, but his reason was that he could rely on the manuscript fee to live well and live well. And it really doesn't matter if you read a book or not...... And his parents used the example of Yerou's arrogance and hurt Zhongyong...... In the end, Yehan had to go back to school. Moreover, his parents were with him. In the future, if you want to jump out and jump up and down, you won't have much of a chance. ”

The news? Very good. In this way, Liu Xuan has completed a matter promised Chen Yuanyuan. Completed what was promised to Chen Yuanyuan, which is a happy thing. This requires drinking to celebrate.

Zhang Wenyuan came, he took the wine bottle and filled it for Liu Xuan.

Liu Xuan is arrogant, drink it all!

Zhang Wenyuan poured another glass, and this glass of wine was given to Liu Xuan.

Someone toasts Liu Xuan's wine, of course he wants to save face.

"!" Another glass bottomed out.

Zhang Wenyuan poured another cup, this one, he said that he had never been impressed before this, but at this time, he was impressed by Liu Xuan's personality charm. Therefore, this cup is to honor Liu Xuan's personality charm.

Yo, that's pretty good. Liu Xuan attached great importance to his words. He thanked him earnestly and gave Zhang Wenyuan a glass in return.

……

Seeing that the literary and artistic side of Spring City took turns, Liu Xuandu was about to get under the table.

At this time, Guan Changsheng and Zhang Xiaofei fought righteously.

Guan Changsheng took the wine bottle and walked towards Ding Yuan's seniors with a wine glass. His posture was very low, and he seriously asked Ding Yuan's seniors for advice on the truth of being a man.

Ding Yuan is loving to juniors. He talked about the detours he had taken over the years, and warned the young people not to take this path again. This road is not working!

Guan Changsheng was very moved!

Yes! Ding Yuan's predecessors treated him as a nephew! This perception of many years has told him.

You must toast Ding Yuan's predecessors with a few glasses of wine.

First drink thanks!

The second cup is still thanks!

The third cup realized a lot of truths: the reason why seniors became seniors was because they took a lot of detours, detours, and delayed their age, so they became seniors.

Just as Lu Xun said, there is no road in the world, and when there are more people walking, it becomes a road.

Guan Changsheng said that there are no predecessors in the world, they have taken many detours and delayed their age, so they have become seniors!

Yes! What a profound realization!

The third cup is realised!

……

Guan Changsheng started with Ding Yuan. But Zhang Xiaofei wanted to drag Lu and Zhang first.

Zhang Xiaofei passed. He also took the wine bottle and went over with the wine glass.

"Hahaha~ Brother Fengxian, Brother Wenyuan, I'm Lao Zhang came to drink with you."

As soon as it passed, Zhang Xiaofei came to take the lead.

People come to drink with themselves, can you not give face? No. Because the meaning he represents at this time cannot be refused.

Lu Zhang and the others hurriedly had a polite conversation with Zhang Xiaofei. So, the three of them each had a drink.

After a cup, Zhang Xiaofei felt unhappy. He proposed to drink it whole in a bottle. After he finished speaking, his eyebrows were raised, signaling to Lu Zhang and the others to dare to come?

Lu and Zhang glanced at each other, Zhang Wenyuan took a step forward, and said with a smile to Zhang Xiaofei: "Brother Xiaofei is also surnamed Zhang, it seems that we were still a family five hundred years ago." Haha~ Today, our brothers can meet at the wine table, no matter what, we can't be unhappy. Come...... Brother Fei, ......"

As he spoke, Zhang Wenyuan took a bottle of wine, touched the bottle with Zhang Xiaofei, and poured it into his stomach, and it was a small half bottle as soon as he poured it.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiaofei can't be weaker than others. The same is half a bottle of belly......

The wine field is like a battlefield, and the battle is fierce!

You come and go, you respect me! In the end, everyone had almost two pounds of wine. And the time had come to twelve o'clock.

Drink enough, really enough! Moreover, this wine is also Nanyun Baogu wine (corn wine).

The characteristic of Baogu wine is that it tastes good at the beginning, and after a period of time, its stamina comes up.

Both of them had been drinking since nine o'clock, and it had been about three hours until now. At this time, the stamina of Baogu wine has already come up.

Therefore, at this time, both of the six people were drunk, and their eyes were foggy.

However, although they all looked drunk, there was no time for them to rest. Because there is still a matter of publishing "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl" to discuss.

On Liu Xuan's side, before coming here, Liu Xuan made the purpose clear. In the end, it was decided to use Zhang Xiaofei and Guan Changsheng as assists. And Liu Xuan, when the main force and look at the situation to examine the degree.

Or on the wine table.

Talks about the publication of "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl" began.

Ding Yuan said: "Xuanzi, the plan can't catch up with the changes...... It was supposed to be serialized in a newspaper...... I didn't expect it to be published in its entirety. ”

"Uncle Yuan, it's nothing, I understand. In fact, it is also good to publish it early. Liu Xuan said with a smile.

"Xuanzi, it's good that you can understand. We're all a family, and I'm not going to beat around the bush, I'll just say it......" Ding Yuan said in a deep voice.

"Uncle Yuan, please speak." Liu Xuan said politely.

"The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, I'll give you 9% of the simplified royalties. If you also give us the traditional Chinese language of the Spring City Literary and Art Agency, it can be increased to 11%. Ding Yuan nodded.

Generally, the royalty of a new author can actually get 7-8% of the partner's benevolence. On top of that, only famous old authors can get 10-14%. In the domestic environment, it is difficult to get higher, even if you are a best-selling author.

It stands to reason that Ding Yuan can give Liu Xuan, a rookie writer, a higher royalty share than in the industry, which is already very benevolent. However, buying, selling, negotiating, and discussing, it is to ask for a price in chaos and repay the money on the spot. If you can really get an extra percentage point, it will be a lot of money.

A book is priced at 25 yuan, and after counting the personal income tax to be paid, the writer can actually only earn about 1.5 yuan for a book. Selling 50,000 copies is only an income of tens of thousands of yuan. As a result, writers generally don't rely solely on publishing royalties to generate income. The lion's share of the income they bring in is other royalties. Such as foreign countries, comics, film and television dramas, radio dramas, stage plays, etc. Of course, this doesn't include those that sell millions.

Next, Liu Xuan VS Ding Yuan. The two talked about the sales channels of the partners of Chuncheng Literature and Art, and talked about the issue of when the traditional Chinese can be published in terms of sales channels. In the end, Liu Xuan concluded that it would take several years or even longer to publish the traditional Chinese version.

The situation in the negotiations is intense!

At this time, the literary and artistic side of Spring City, Lu Fengxian, and Zhang Wenyuan also joined in. On Liu Xuan's side, Guan Changsheng and Zhang Xiaofei also joined the negotiations.

The scene at this time is, Liu Xuan VS Ding Yuan for a while, Liu Xuan VS Ding Lu Zhang for a while, Ding Lu Zhang VS Liu Guan for a while, and finally, Ding Lu Zhang VS Liu Guan Zhang.

Finally, at three o'clock in the afternoon, the negotiations ended, and the publication of "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl" was finalized.

The royalty given to Liu Xuan by Chuncheng Literature and Art became 10%.
