Chapter 73: A Thousand Paintings (Ask for Collection)

Chapter 73: A Painting of a Thousand Daughters (Ask for Collection)

Throughout the afternoon, Zhao Wei and a few people from 306 went back and forth between the school's recording room and the dormitory, and everyone was busy with the last two episodes of "Never Expected".

It wasn't until 19 and 30 o'clock in the evening that Zhao Wei found a lame excuse of "I didn't sleep enough last night", because he promised to pass Guan Zhiling's beautiful eyebrows in the morning and go back early to paint "Crayon Xiaoxin" with her.

We've all become a busy person by accident! A little lacking in skill said, alas, who called the buddy so good at singing and dancing and versatile!

Zhao Wei walked back to the school's family building, opened the door, and found that Guan Zhiling was already waiting for him in the living room.

It's night now, and of course it's a bit inappropriate for the two of them to stay in Zhao Wei's bedroom to paint, so they continue to work in the living room.

The two of them were enthusiastic and in full swing for more than two hours, of course, it was not much different from the progress in the morning, and they once again finished drawing 9 pages of 3 short stories of "Crayon Xiaoxin".

The next day was Monday, Zhao Wei had no classes in the first and second periods, and he set an alarm clock for half past 9 on his mobile phone last night, but early in the morning, the alarm clock had not yet sounded, and a call came in first.

"The rolling Yangtze River is passing away, and the waves are sweeping away the heroes......"

The mobile phone rang for a while, and finally woke up Zhao Wei, he touched the mobile phone on the bedside table in a daze, and with a random stroke of his finger, the phone was connected.

Zhao Wei lay still without opening his eyes, he brought the phone to his ear, and said a little unpleasantly: "Hey! ~"Being woken up in the morning is certainly not a pleasant thing.

A woman's voice came from the phone, and she asked politely, "Hello! Is it Mr. Zhao Weizhao? ”

Zhao Wei responded: "Yes, I am Zhao Wei." Who are you? ”

The woman on the phone introduced herself: "I am the editor-in-chief of Juying Animation Magazine. The "Crayon Xiaoxin" you submitted yesterday felt very good after our review, and it has quite market potential and prospects. So, we've decided to talk to you about signing a contract. ”

When Zhao Wei heard this, he also sobered up, and asked the most core and concerned question: "Then how much can your magazine give me a contract fee?" ”

The woman replied:

"Well, because you are a rookie cartoonist, the quotation we give is 450 yuan Huaxia coins for a painting, and if you release a single book in the future, we can give you 5% of the royalties. In addition, we also receive a 55% share of the e-subscription obtained on the magazine's website. What do you think? ”

This offer from the other party is indeed quite good for those rookie cartoonists!

Zhao Wei also took the time to learn about the general market in some famous comic forums yesterday, the average newcomer and new work, it is already rare for a painting to get 100 yuan to 150 yuan, and the royalty of their general single book, reaching about 3% is already relatively high.

But,Of course, "Crayon Shin-chan" can't be compared with those ordinary newcomers' new works.,It's destined to become a national-level comic.,If you let the other party sign it at such a low price.,Dude is too 2 strokes, right?!

Therefore, Zhao Wei pondered for a while, and then resorted to a thirty-six plan to delay the army, and said: "Well, I think your company's quotation has not reached the price I expected psychologically, let me think about it, and reply to your company in a week, what do you think?" ”

The woman was a little anxious when she heard this, and she immediately raised her treatment and said, "Well, so be it." Let's give you a final thoroughfare, we can give you a painting of up to 600 yuan Huaxia coins, a single bank of 6% royalty. Giving you such treatment is already the treatment of our magazine's god-level cartoonists, what do you think? ”

"Let me think about it for a few days." Zhao Wei replied calmly.

The woman only said a little helplessly: "Okay then." I'll wait for your call back, you can call me directly. ”

……

In the next two days, Zhao Wei and the three horses in the 306 dormitory finally completed the editing, recording and production of the 5th episode of "Never Expected".

He has to take the time to draw at least 3 pages of "Crayon Xiaoxin" with Guan Guan Xiaohua every night, Guan Zhiling's original words are: "You must watch a new episode of "Crayon Xiaoxin" every day, and people will sleep soundly at night!" ”

During this period, Zhao Wei also received contract calls from the other 4 animation magazine publishers who submitted articles, and he all used delaying tactics.

In the case of the same strength of the animation magazine publishing house, Zhao Wei feels that this is really the easiest thing to choose as to which publishing house, whoever is more sincere will choose whom!

How can you see the sincerity of the other party?! Oh, the price represents sincerity!

In the end, "Crayon Xiaoxin" is about to settle in the Sanye Animation Magazine Publishing House, of course, their sincerity is the greatest, not only gave a price of 1000 yuan Huaxia coins for a painting, but also issued a single book in the future, giving Zhao Wei 10% of the royalty.

What a painting! Zhao Wei feels that this price is barely worthy of the value of "Crayon Xiaoxin".

After making a decision easily, Zhao Wei took out the mobile phone in his trouser pocket, and he dialed the number of the editor-in-chief of the Sanye Animation Magazine Publishing House.

The phone rang twice and was connected.

"Editor-in-Chief Ye, hello! I'm Zhao Wei. Zhao Wei smiled and said hello on the phone.

"Hello!" Editor-in-Chief Ye heard that it was Zhao Wei's call, and his voice became a little excited, and he hurriedly asked, "Is it Mr. Zhao Wei?" How did you think about signing a contract? ”

Zhao Wei replied: "I have already made a decision, that is, to sign a contract with your magazine. ”

"Great!"

Editor-in-chief Ye said excitedly: "Please check the email sent to you yesterday, which contains the MSN number of our contracted editor, after you add his MSN number, he will introduce you in detail the specific signing process." ”

"Yes, okay. I know. Zhao Wei said.

Editor-in-chief Ye smiled and said, "If you have any questions in the future, you can call me directly." ”

"Okay. So let's do it first. Bye. ”

"Bye-bye~"

The two hung up the phone, Zhao Wei immediately logged in to his mailbox and MSN, found the reply email of the Sanye Animation Publishing House, found the MSN number of the contracted editor, and sent the other party a verification message to add friends.

A few minutes later, the signing editor informed Zhao Wei of his friend request, and then he began to explain to Zhao Wei the important precautions after signing the contract:

"Our Shamrock Society's anime magazine is a weekly and is published every Thursday, so you'd better deliver it to us every Monday so that we can print it in time, and at the latest by Tuesday, otherwise we won't be able to catch up with the printing."

"Another thing to pay special attention to is that please don't stop publishing at will, this thing is the most hurtful, especially for new cartoonists, so save a little sketch when you have time to prepare for emergencies."
