028 Manuscript Request

It was Qiao Shishi who spoke. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Needless to say, the tall and thin boy standing at the door was Qiao Mingzhe.

In his previous life, Xu Yi had never met Qiao Mingzhe, but he heard that this person was so handsome that he was scumbag, his character was bursting, and he was born with the aura of 'people love cars and see flat tires'.

Now it seems that it doesn't look like that.

Tall, thin, and clean, wearing a pair of glasses, he looks like a cultural person.

However, in this school magazine reform, even the principal admires Qiao Mingzhe's leadership ability, and it seems that this person is not a good person.

Subconsciously, Xu Yi looked back at Qiao Shishi.

Is this girl moving so fast?

Just got out of the activity class and notified his brother to come over?

It seems that he really underestimated this little girl.

After just an activity class, Qiao Mingzhe personally came to the door, and it seemed that nine times out of ten he came to confront him.

Although the school magazine is not a regular magazine, the reputation of plagiarism spreads, not only Qiao Mingzhe, but even the entire school magazine will be discredited.

But that's fine, what if you can get the manuscript fee?

Thinking of the manuscript fee, Xu Yi immediately stood up and straightened his clothes, and walked over with a professional smile on his face, "Hello Editor-in-Chief Qiao, it's an honor to meet you, I'm Xu Yi." ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand and tried to be as generous and decent as he could.

Seeing Xu Yi coming over and shaking hands with him, 'Qiao Mingzhe' was obviously stunned for a moment, and then showed a very polite smile and said, "I'm sorry, I'm not Qiao Mingzhe, my name is Li Xuan, and I am the deputy editor-in-chief of the school magazine." ”

Ignoring Xu Yi's demented expression, Li Xuan stretched out his right hand and shook Xu Yi, "It's a pleasure to meet you." ”

"Hehe, hehe."

is also a person who has lived for more than 20 years, although it is embarrassing to admit the wrong person, but it will not make Xu Yi really lose the ability to speak later, laugh a few times, and he quickly recovers.

"May I ask what the senior is looking for me?" Retracting his hand, Xu Yi said as he took Li Xuan out of the class.

He's not used to being too flamboyant.

And now it's meal time, standing at the door of the class and talking loudly affects the entry and exit of other students.

Obviously, Li Xuan also understood Xu Yi's intentions, and followed him to a quieter place outside before he spoke, "We are all real people, and I don't bend around with you, to be honest, I was appointed by the chairman to invite you to write on behalf of the school magazine." ”

Everyone is a student, and Xu Yi's question is very direct, so Li Xuan doesn't bother to say superfluous words, and goes straight to the point and tells the task assigned by Qiao Mingzhe.

The last time the manuscript of "The Legend of Xianxia" was cut, the entire school magazine was not very happy.

But there was no way, Zhou Zhizhong's mountain pressed over, they had no funds, so they had to cut the manuscript painfully.

Fortunately, there is no endless road.

They lost "The Legend of Xianxia", but they got a large amount of subscriptions.

Compared with the last issue, the number of subscriptions to their school magazine this time has doubled or tripled compared to the last time, and now, they have two or three thousand yuan in their hands, and with the funds given by the school, they now have eight or nine thousand dollars available in their hands.

This is certainly thanks to Badass.

But in fact, those of them who are editors also know that in the school magazine, this novel is actually not serialized for too long.

After all, it's a black = Taoist theme.

Fighting, violence = force, which is a serious violation of the school's rules and regulations.

The school leadership would never allow such a manuscript to appear in the school magazine.

Therefore, in the next issue of the school magazine, "Bad Guy" will be banned.

The first alternative work is "The Legend of Tianmu Mountain Immortals".

As the author of "The Legend of Xianxia", Xu Yi was naturally included in the key training objects.

But this time, they're going to be long!

In order to ensure the distribution and subscription of the school magazine, a stable readership is very necessary, therefore, we can't just be satisfied with a manuscript of 30,000 or 40,000 words, and he also believes that Xu Yi has this strength!

It's not that hard to turn a short story into a long one.

Li Xuan thought very well, in his previous life, he could be favored by the editor, even if he was only standing in front of him as the editor of an inconspicuous school media such as the school magazine, Xu Yi might agree as soon as his mind was hot.

But now, he won't.

After all, it is a person who has crawled in society, and it is natural to weigh the pros and cons.

The school magazine is not a big formal publication, and the readership is very narrow, which he can accept, but he is still responsible for reshaping "Bad Guys".

There is a difference between reinvention and rewriting.

"Bad Guy" was also transplanted into his brain by him, to put it bluntly, remodeling is the process of copying and pasting, and he only plays the role of a typewriter.

But the continuation is different.

He needs to conceive, he needs to improve the outline, he needs to make cool points, and he needs to open gold fingers.

When necessary, he also needs to read the best works of the same period for the reader, so as to improve his own work, and sometimes even overturn and rewrite.

In his previous life, Xu Yi, like everyone else, always felt that the author could make money just by tapping the keyboard, which was very easy, and the cost of computers and keyboards was almost zero.

But after entering the industry, I found that the conception, essay maintenance, and code words actually cost the author a lot of time and energy.

What's more, the next step is the midterm exams.

If there is a regular or well-known magazine in front of him, he can consider losing his studies to earn this false name, anyway, his parents will have something to say when they ask.

But the reality is that it is the school magazine that is now invited.

The reader's area is narrow, the honor is low, and the remuneration is pitifully small (five yuan per thousand words), and when the time comes, if you lose your studies, you can only 'lose your wife and soldiers', this deal is really not cost-effective!

After a short period of contemplation, a polite smile reappeared on Xu Yi's face, "Senior, thank you very much for coming to invite me to write in person, but now I have no plans to continue writing, and this is another midterm exam, so ......"

He paused deliberately and didn't say anything dead.

If the school magazine can use his 30,000-word novel, there will be at least more than 100 yuan in manuscript fees.

"Hmm-" Li Xuan's lips tightened.

Xu Yi's refusal can be said to have been conceived by him, but it is still a little unexpected.

The school magazine says that it is not big or small, but it is an honor to be invited by the editor-in-chief to write a manuscript, no matter how you look at it, but the teenager in front of him doesn't seem to care too much.

Of course, this kind of indifference has also been seen by him.

But it's on the teacher.

Thinking about it like this, Li Xuan couldn't help but look at Xu Yi a few more times, as if this boy didn't have any restraint standing in front of him, even after knowing his intention just now, joy flashed in the corners of his eyes.

I don't think I'm so happy!

Not seeing the expected feedback, Li Xuan was a little disappointed.

"We're all the same age, and I'm not a few years older than you, so I'll tell you the truth." After a pause, Li Xuan spoke, "You also know, our hope for this school magazine reform is to cultivate a group of excellent campus writers, we also read your last manuscript and are more satisfied, but if you don't go up, we won't force it, what about the manuscript fee, we will also give you a price of 1,000 words and 10 yuan, if you want to submit in the future, you can also vote, we are still friends." ”

Xu Yi didn't speak, but his eyes lit up when he heard the remuneration of 'ten yuan for a thousand words'.

This bright color naturally did not escape Li Xuan's eyes.

Blame had to agree.

It turned out that the remuneration was low.

At a young age, you don't learn to dedicate to learn power first.

Li Xuan's heart flashed with dissatisfaction, but on the surface, he still said politely, "You may have also heard of Qiao Mingzhe, he and I are more optimistic about your novel, if you are interested, we will not treat you badly in terms of remuneration." ”

"Then can I ask, if I continue to write, how much will I be paid?"

"How much do you think is appropriate?" Li Xuan asked rhetorically.

"Senior," Xu Yi smiled, "You and I are both smart people, you came today with Chairman Qiao's order, and you also represent half of the community, let's not go around in circles, you can make a price, if it is suitable, I can try." ”

Xu Yi heard a lot of words on the scene.

He was too lazy to listen to the scene at school.

Talking about money hurts feelings, but Nima doesn't even have feelings, and if you don't talk about money, you're talking about fart!

What does it mean to not be unfavorable?

Paying wages on time is called not being disadvantaged.

Verbal honor has a hairy use!

"We will give you the price of 1,000 words and 15 words, but in the same way, you have to submit a manuscript of 10,000 words in less than half a month, and the manuscript fee will be paid at the end of the month." Li Xuan said solemnly.

"Twenty, make it up, I'm not good at math, fifteen is troublesome." Bursting out his price, Xu Yi looked at Li Xuan calmly, as if what he said just now was just a casual remark.

Although on the surface, Xu Yi is not shocked at the moment, but in fact, only he knows that now his heart is pounding.

Twenty in a thousand words.

It's still 10,000 words in half a month.

The school magazine is not a regular publication, and the manuscript will naturally not ask for any IP copyright, which means that one day he will be happy, and he can upload it directly on the Internet for the next step, even if 08 is an era of the rise of online literature, but this kind of good thing can't be found with a lantern.

was ecstatic in his heart, but Xu Yi still said lukewarmly, "If the senior doesn't agree, then let's publish it according to that, I also said that the midterm exam is going to be held recently, and everyone is reviewing." ”

"Okay, I'll ask, and I'll give you the answer tomorrow." Li Xuan pretended to be embarrassed on his face, but he was already happy in his heart.

Twenty in a thousand words.

When he came, Qiao Mingzhe had already told himself that he was currently rich, and Xu Yi's maximum budget for manuscript fees was 50 per thousand words, that is to say, as long as it was within the range of 50 words per 1,000 words, any remuneration could be opened!

Unexpectedly, this kid looks very shrewd and looks very powerful, but in fact, he is not a person who will raise the price.

Honestly!

Very sincere!

"Since the senior is here, I'll invite you to have a drink." Xu Yi politely invited.

School is no better than society.

What Starbucks, on the island, hundreds of thousands.

The most expensive thing near here is KFC, followed by Malatang, and on campus, there is only a commissary, and the goods in it are not too complete.

The two of them are big men, and they can't invite someone to drink something as childish as milk.

If you want to break your head, Xu Yi can only think of drinks.

"No need," Li Xuan refused with a smile, "Let's celebrate tomorrow after we have negotiated." ”

"Well, we'll see you tomorrow this time."

Xu Yi didn't force him to stay, sent Li Xuan away, and turned around and went back to the classroom.
