Chapter 45 Young, Old and Old

The person at the publishing house is called Ma Bing, about forty years old, wearing black-rimmed glasses and revealing a bit of bookishness. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"It's a pleasure to meet you."

"Me too."

"Then let's get straight to the point?"

"Okay."

Next, I came to the key point, remuneration.

"We have integrated the content of your two speeches, as well as your proposition essay that won a national competition last time, and we have also decided to publish it in the National Excellent Essay Anthology. Decide to bid 80,000 yuan to buy the full copyright and distribute your speech and proposition essay exclusively. You can also choose to share the way, with a minimum of 30,000 yuan to purchase all copyrights, and the profits will be divided according to the method of 5+5. Which do you think is more suitable? ”

At that time, for a high school student of Su Cheng's age, this price was already quite good, whether it was 80,000 yuan for copyright exclusive or 30,000 yuan for guaranteed plus share, it was a very good way. The second is better for Su Cheng, because once his information is released, think about how big the repercussions will be during the college entrance examination season?

It can even be said that in the next ten years, the publishing house will continue to make huge profits in this area. Therefore, the latter kind is better and lasts longer. But Su Cheng is short of money now, and he is in urgent need of a large amount of money, so it is impossible to wait for a share.

"I'm sorry, I don't accept either."

Not only Ma Bing was stunned, but even Principal Song was stunned, how could he say that he changed the hexagram just now?

Ma Bing helped the frame of his glasses, glanced at Principal Song, and motioned for him to help ask.

Su Cheng didn't wait for them to ask, so he smiled and said: "The copyright can be sold exclusively, but it is not 80,000 but 200,000, and there is no need to talk about it if it is lower than this number." ”

Principal Song's eyelids jumped a few times, and he hurriedly signaled Su Cheng with his eyes not to mess around. However, Su Cheng smiled very calmly and ignored his gesture.

Here, the horse soldier looked at Su Cheng through the thick spectacle lenses for a while, but did not speak. He was waiting for Su Cheng to be anxious, the young man was starting to show his edge but lacked stamina, and the negotiation did not depend on who would say it, but also on who would delay. Now, he is dragging it out, and he can't wait for Su Cheng to collapse his psychological defense, and then he can bargain.

Will Su Cheng be anxious? Of course not, the 33-year-old sales manager had negotiated with customers in his previous life, and this psychological quality was still there, plus he was very confident in what he wrote, if the publishing house had enough ability, it would be able to see the commercial value, not to mention 200,000, even 500,000, and the other party should not hesitate to agree.

There is a saying in China that you can't be poor if you are poor, and children can't be poor in education, and the amount spent on children is not much.

Therefore, these materials that are beneficial to the college entrance examination and study will definitely not be sold once they are published.

Time passed minute by minute, and neither of the two men spoke.

This is the impasse in the negotiations, and whoever speaks first loses.

Principal Song couldn't wait for a while, but before he could speak, he was interrupted by a horse soldier raising his hand.

"Okay, 200,000, but pay it in monthly installments, and now you can only give 100,000."

"No, it must be paid today, otherwise there is no need to talk. Because, I'm waiting for the money. ”

It was the first time that Ma Bing had encountered such a difficult opponent, and looking at his calm and gentle smile, calm as a man in his thirties, he couldn't guess what he was thinking.

Before coming, Ma Bing also thought about many possibilities, but he didn't expect that Su Cheng would open the price just right, neither high nor low, so he couldn't refuse. Moreover, it can be seen from Su Cheng's attitude that as long as he leaves and comes back, it is estimated that the price will have to rise.

"Well, the last one, the right of authorship ......"

"No signature, I will give up the controversy."

Su Cheng didn't want to be famous, it was better not to give the right of authorship, anyway, he didn't want to make money by writing books.

Soon, the contract was signed, and Su Cheng also got the first money after being reborn, a full 200,000! And after taxes, it's a windfall, but the meaning of this 200,000 is far beyond the value of the money itself.

Originally, it was an unintentional willow and a bit of a battle of will, but I didn't expect to get the manuscript fee at all. With this 200,000, you can really start the site selection now, ready to let my father start a new business.

After getting the manuscript fee, Su Cheng decided to invite the small group to have a meal, and of course he didn't forget the head teacher Lao Huang. If he hadn't given Su Cheng the opportunity to participate in the essay competition, the following things would not have happened, and the 200,000 yuan would not have anything to do with him.

Su Cheng bought a pound of tea and sent it over while Lao Huang was alone in the office, and put it in front of him, "Teacher Huang, this is for you." ”

"What do you mean?"

"I don't mean anything else, it's just that you often drink tea and want you to try the taste of this tea?"

"Okay, take it apart and make me a cup, and you can take the rest back."

"Mr. Huang, I don't want to say or say compliments, and this little tea is not worth much and does not mean anything. If you really don't want to take it, wait until I'm gone before throwing it away. ”

"You kid...... The teacher didn't like it. ”

"Anyway, I will definitely put the tea here, if you don't accept it, I will send it home for you in the evening."

"Su Cheng, why don't we make an agreement, if you are admitted to the undergraduate, the teacher will definitely open this bag of tea leaves for you to drink, how about celebrating your victory?"

"No problem, then it's decided?"

"That's it!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, and the tea finally stayed.

The first time I gave a gift, I was so happy, and I was willing to give it, and I was worried that Lao Huang would insist on not accepting it.

……

Stepping into the house, Su Cheng immediately smelled the aroma of food.

Well, the taste of nostalgia is similar to the smell of the rice made by my mother.

Su Cheng's heart tightened, and he hurriedly ran to the kitchen door, only to see Aunt Cai and Father Su next door, sitting at a table eating.

Seeing Su Cheng come in, the two of them looked a little nervous.

"My son is back, hurry up and sit down and have a drink of two glasses and taste the dishes made by your Aunt Cai."

Su Cheng took a breath, ran over with a smile and found a bench to sit down, picked up chopsticks and sandwiched a piece of braised pork ribs, "Well, it's so fragrant, Aunt Cai's craftsmanship is definitely five-star, delicious!" ”

"It's really delicious, isn't it? This kid is really good at talking. Aunt Cai's face flushed a little.

Su Cheng also put a piece in Cai Xin's bowl, and said with a smile: "Cai Xin also eat more, seeing that you are so thin, you must eat more meat in the future, so that your body can be better." ”

Then, Su Cheng found that the atmosphere at the table immediately became relaxed, and his father took a sweet sip of wine, "Cai Xin will be your classmate in the future, you have to take care of her more." ”

"Really? That's great, is Cai Xin going to the first year of high school? If you transfer to another school, you must be a little uncomfortable, and if you have any difficulties in studying in the future, just come to me. ”

"This kid is so well-behaved. His eldest brother is well-educated, unlike our family, Xiao Xin is too introverted and doesn't like to talk. ”

"I think it's good, Cai Xin is definitely not familiar with this place, which is understandable. It's good to get familiar with it slowly in the future, don't worry about the classmates in 6 are very easy to get along with. ”

"Really?"

The first time I heard Cai Xin speak, her voice was not loud and soft, but she was too timid, no wonder Aunt Cai said that she was introverted. Maybe it's more worried about her being bullied, right?

Su Cheng smiled and nodded, and picked up a piece of pork ribs and put it in her bowl, "Eat some more, don't treat yourself as an outsider, you must finish eating." ”

At first, the two mothers who were still a little restrained, but after Su Cheng humorously said a few interesting things about the school from time to time, the faces of the two mothers became relaxed.

Especially Dad, the wine is sizzling, and the old heart is comforting.

During this time, I was busy studying and didn't notice these details, as if the two families had slowly come closer since the last rainstorm, and they both sat down at the same table to eat.

I don't know much about the two of them, I only know that Aunt Cai is a very gentle woman, who not only knows how to cook but also knows how to take care of people. Because the conditions at home are not very good, Cai Xin is dressed very ordinarily, plus she is a little introverted and looks very thin, which makes her even more weak.

"If Aunt Cai and Dad can ...... Mom, don't hit me. ”

Su Cheng started to act with a heart, picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "Aunt Cai, let's go one, it can be regarded as thank you for helping me cook for my father." ”

"What is this kid polite to his aunt, this meal is still a dish that your father paid for, so what is there to thank me for?" said so, but this glass of wine Aunt Cai drank sweetly, and her face was even redder.

"By the way, when will Cai Xin report to school?"

"I'll go tomorrow, today thanks to your dad who took us to the school to find the principal, I didn't expect it to go well. I really want to thank you two guys, if it weren't for your help, I really wouldn't have a clue at all. ”

It can be seen from Aunt Cai's conversation that she is also educated and speaks quite decently. This is a bit similar to Su's mother, Su Cheng likes it a little.

"I'll send Cai Xin tomorrow, I'm quite familiar with the school." Su Cheng said with a smile.

"Really? That's great, I'm still worried that Cai Xin can't do it alone, I'm relieved to have you as a brother. ”

"Don't worry, I will take good care of Cai Xin."

"Xin'er, follow Brother Su Cheng to school tomorrow, be obedient."

"Well, I got it, Mom."

The laughter at the dinner table soon increased.

After sending away Aunt Cai and his wife, Su Cheng told Su's father about getting the manuscript fee.

"200,000? Son, are you sure you didn't fool you? "Father Su didn't dare to believe it at all, 200,000 came out coldly, who would dare to believe it?

"Dad, seeing that you are nervous, of course I really don't believe you to ask the principal."

"Good son, dad is proud of you! Come, let's go one! Father Su quickly accepted. I still have done business, and my psychological tolerance is strong.

Su Cheng didn't drink much at night, but Su's father drank a lot, in order not to spoil the fun, he still picked up the wine glass, but he gave half of the wine in his father's cup to himself, "Dad, the wine is almost drunk, we don't have to be hypocritical, let's do it!" ”

"Okay, done!" Father Su's face was full of red light.

After drinking, Su Cheng took advantage of the wine and said, "Dad, you get along well with Aunt Cai, right?" ”

Su Cheng made it clear that there was something in his words.
