CHAPTER XLIII
Everyone sat down in groups, it was already ten minutes later, Wen Lei handed over the menu and asked Boss Zhang of the publishing house to order, Boss Zhang smiled and handed it to Uncle Wen.
Uncle Wen refused with a smile: "It doesn't matter what I eat!" The visitor is a guest, and Mr. Zhang should be allowed to order first! ”
When Boss Zhang heard this, he returned the menu to Wen Lei and said with a smile: "Actually, it doesn't matter what I eat!" Let's order it from Mr. Xiaowen! ”
Wen Lei was embarrassed for a while, and Uncle Wen waved his hand and said, "In that case, you are responsible for ordering!" ”
Wen Lei looked at the menu and was stunned! How does he know something?
Jun Qiangrose pulled the sleeve of Lawenlei's sleeve and walked out of the box with him, Boss Zhang is a Cantonese, according to the preferences of Cantonese people, he ordered six dishes and one soup, two meat and four vegetables.
After the dishes were served, Uncle Wen smiled and said, "The food is simple, let's eat it casually, right?" ”
"How could this be?" Boss Zhang smiled, "Every grain is hard, I still understand this truth!" Moreover, Mr. Xiaowen ordered a lot of dishes! ”
"Hehe, the young man still needs to exercise, he is still far behind!" Uncle Wen chuckled and said, "You have to be supported by others to order a dish, and you can write a few words!" ”
"Mr. Xiaowen can't just write two words, I've read Tongtian Avenue, and it's indeed a good novel. Besides, the idea of dividing Mr. Xiaowen provided us with a new idea, Mr. Xiaowen is still so young, but it is beyond my expectations! ”
Wen Lei and Jun Rose knew that tonight's theme was coming, so they pricked up their ears and listened.
Don't look at how much Boss Zhang admires Uncle Wen and how much he likes Wen Lei, this is all false, as a businessman, in business, the benefits that should be obtained cannot be less, and Boss Zhang values the return on investment more.
Wen Lei's novel is good, but it can't attract him, even if Wen Lei's idea is ingenious and the plot is attractive, it can't reach the point where he has to interview in person, what he values more is Wen Lei's sharing plan. You must know that a good sharing plan can attract many authors, and open remuneration attracts more excellent authors, which is the cornerstone of the development of the website.
Boss Zhang said slowly: "I am a writer, but I am also a businessman, and I heard about the open remuneration for the first time, and I was also impressed. It's good that you have this idea, but how to calculate it, how to distribute it, it's a difficult problem. The Internet is not developed, and Mr. Xiaowen is not a celebrity, so it's good to have someone read your novel, but if no one reads it, you can't get anything? ”
"I'm confident in my novel!" This is the first sentence Wen Lei said today. He not only has confidence in himself, but also in Jun Rose, listening to his cousin's words, yes.
"It's one thing to have faith, but it's another thing to be honest. You have to think about your own interests, so I advise you to think carefully! Boss Zhang continued to persuade. He was not sure of this new sales method, and for the sake of Uncle Wen's face, he only persuaded a few more words.
Any new marketing method must have a touchstone, although Boss Zhang is optimistic about this sales method, but not optimistic about Wen Lei, he is more optimistic about some of the gods who have become famous, and intends to use this as a magic weapon to stabilize them. And Wen Lei is just a small fish, and it is not worth Boss Zhang's attention.
Boss Zhang looked at Uncle Wen and continued: "Mr. Wen can also help Mr. Wen get ideas!" ”
"I've figured it out, and I'm confident in my novel!" Wen Lei said.
Uncle Wen looked at Wen Lei's firm eyes, patted his head, and said with a smile: "Young people always have to break through, since he has this idea, let him be!" ”
Since his father said so, Boss Zhang only nodded, no longer persuasive, and gave Editor Wang a look, and Editor Wang hurriedly took out the contract that had been prepared from the briefcase and handed it to Wen Lei.
Wen Lei looked at it, and handed the contract to Jun Rose.
"Sister, take a look!"
Jun Rose was not polite, took the contract, read it word by word, nodded while reading, frowned occasionally, and scratched it with her fingernails, the appearance of the little adult almost didn't make Boss Zhang laugh!
Jun Rose finished reading the contract, handed it to Uncle Wen, leaned on Uncle Wen's ear, and whispered something, Uncle Wen said with a smile: "It seems that my kid's writing skills are not up to par!" When Boss Zhang is free, it's good to give a few more words. After eating my food for so many years, I haven't made much progress, but I hope that the next time I sign a contract, I will share enough pocket money for him, so as not to keep me and be idle! ”
This action surprised Boss Zhang and Editor Wang, I thought that the little girl was here to make soy sauce, and I thought that the little girl was pretending, quite like that, but I didn't expect that people could not only understand the contract, but also have a lot of weight!
Although Uncle Wen was not very satisfied with the contract, he just knocked on it, handed the contract to Wen Lei, and nodded.
The fame was made by himself, Wen Lei was still a little hot, and Uncle Wen didn't want to pull out the seedlings to help it grow.
Boss Zhang frowned and gave Editor Wang a look, Editor Wang immediately took out a pen from his bag and handed it to Wen Lei, Wen Lei held the pen and was silent for a few seconds, and signed his name on the contract.
After talking about the matter, Uncle Wen and Boss Zhang continued to praise each other, but they were not so enthusiastic.
Wen Lei and Jun Rose were there as the background board, and Editor Wang was looking at Jun Rose intentionally or unintentionally.
This girl is not simple!
Editor Wang has been following Boss Zhang for more than ten years, so he naturally understands Boss Zhang, that is, an iron rooster who does not pull out a hair, this time, Boss Zhang's heart is dripping blood! Even if he gets one or two tickets, it can't make up for his regrets!
When it was time to check out, it was another tug-of-war, and in the end, it was the editor Wang who became old and refined, and took the first step to settle the meal money! Although Boss Zhang is a dime, he is also a real villain, with the quality of doing what he says, and he can't do a little thing like checkout, how can Editor Wang be by his side for more than ten years.
After eating and leaving, Uncle Wen smiled faintly, patted Wen Lei's shoulder and said, "You still have to study hard with your sister!" ”
And Boss Zhang has an extra manuscript in his hand - this is what Wen Lei, who just signed the contract, gave to Editor Wang, and it was taken over, and the above is the follow-up story. He wanted to see where this kid got such strong self-confidence.
