"Are you returning from the sky?" , Hu Weihua said in surprise.

Chang Zheng clasped his fists and saluted: "I returned from the sky in my late life, and I saw Hu's predecessors"

Hu Weihua still questioned: "Really? ”

Chang Zheng unzipped his bag, took out two bottles of Coke, and then took out an A4 bag. Opening the bag, he took out five sheets of A4 paper, all printed on the front and back. This is the signing contract of "Infinite Terror", and Fenghua.com has already stamped it at the signature and seal of Party A, and sent a copy back to Chang Zheng.

"If you don't change your name, you don't change your surname. The return of the sky is also, my pen name. Chang Zheng handed the contract to Hu Weihua.

After Hu Weihua took the contract and read it, he sighed: "Lao Chang, Lao Chang, you probably don't know what your kid is doing, right?" Xiao Chang, no wonder you don't want to come to me, our publishing house can't afford to pay a six-figure monthly salary. ”

Chang Zhengqi said: "Huh? Did you know that? ”

Hu Weihua handed the contract back to Chang Zheng, "It's not a secret, if you want to know, you can naturally know." They are all insiders, and we have been cooperating with Fenghua.com for many years. Take a look at your subscription and you'll find out. I really didn't expect that "Infinite Terror" was actually written by you. ”

Chang Zheng smiled: "Uncle Hu has also heard of my clumsy book?" ”

Hu Weihua: "I've read it, and I will pay attention to the red books of several big websites." Truth be told, Infinite Terror isn't for an old man like me, it's more for younger readers. Therefore, this book has commercial value, because it is now the world of young people, and young people have become the main consumer force.

I can see that your kid is here today, purely to sell dog meat on the head of a sheep, the application is fake, it is true to brainwash me, and then sell your products after brainwashing, you are completely a trick of passing/selling. However, the creativity of "Infinite Terror" is indeed very surprising, as you have just compared, this book is the product of the best sperm cell and maternal bond.

I vaguely remember that there was a Chinese movie called "The Last Movie Hero", in which the actor got a magic movie ticket and could freely wear in and out of the movie. The idea of "Infinite Terror" is somewhat similar to this film, but it is definitely not plagiarism, your creativity is stronger than that movie, and you have set up a very complete system.

All in all, from a personal point of view, this book is first-class in creativity, second-rate in plot, and third-rate in writing. However, unlike us old guys, today's young readers are not so demanding on writing, and young people are more interested in novelties. Your book "Infinite Terror" caters to the tastes of young people very well. ”

Chang Zheng gave a thumbs up: "Uncle Hu is really an expert in the industry, he can see the door at a glance, and his comments are to the point." Let me clarify, I actually came to visit Uncle Hu today, and as a junior, it is my honor to ask for advice and learn from my elders. Uncle Hu has always been my idol, he can go to the battlefield and become the president. Wen Tao is strategic, the generals are in the phase, the cannon can kill the enemy, and the pen is written in the country..."

Hu Weihua scolded with a smile: "Stinky boy, stop!" Don't. I haven't seen you for a few years, how did you become so virtuous? The tongue is like a spring, the mouth is like a hanging river, and he is quite good at talking nonsense. Hey, society is a big dye vat. You just said to contribute? What to submit? You have signed a contract with Fenghua.com for this book, and it is up to you to decide which publishing house to publish. ”

Chang Zheng: "Actually, I want to consult Uncle Hu, can my book meet the publishing requirements of your publishing house?" ”

Hu Weihua said with a smile: "When you just analyzed the responsibilities of editors, you said that editors should maximize the wealth of publishing houses on the premise of maintaining social conscience. As president, I have the same responsibilities. As I said earlier, this book has commercial value, and books with commercial value, we will all operate. ”

Chang Zheng: "Then Uncle Hu will help me operate, you can send someone to talk to Fenghua.com." You know, as an author, how rewarding and satisfying it is to watch your work become printed on paper. ”

"Haha! You. Hu Weihua laughed: "Your current personality is the same as that of Chang Cannon... It's completely different from the usual. Forget it, let's be honest with you, I've already sent someone to talk about it, and of course, not just your book. Works that have been completed or are about to be completed are our priority. What I want to tell you is that your book has been uploaded for less than two months, and it is currently more than 800,000 words, and there are already other wolves targeting it. You shouldn't be a eunuch, right? ”

Chang Zheng was a little proud in his heart, pretending to be calm on the surface: "Huh? It's true? My editor didn't even tell me. Also, he won't tell me that it's the publishing editor's responsibility. ”

Hu Weihua: "The website won't pit you, what are you afraid of?" You are a community of interests. Don't you write it in the contract, the royalties of the physical publication, you take seven, they take three. For the rest, film and television adaptations, games, anime, audio, etc., you are all five or five points. The higher they sell, the more they make themselves, so they will definitely pick the highest bidder.

Tomorrow will enter October, the fourth quarter, our company's remaining budget this year is not much, the temporary increase in the budget procedures is very troublesome, it is estimated that the layers of approval have been completed, and it will be the New Year. We may not be able to get a physical publication of Infinite Terror, and as far as I know, another major publishing house has already made a bid for a higher price than us. ”

Chang Zheng asked curiously, "Oh? How tall? ”

Hu Weihua's smile was meaningful: "This is a trade secret, I can't tell you." I am working for the state and cannot divulge state secrets. Anyway, it's higher than us, our company is managed by the city, and that one is directly managed by the province, so the amount of available funds is different. You kid is estimated to be able to make another profit, a bumper harvest both online and offline.

I'd love to run Infinite Terror, and I'm very optimistic about your book. There is no way, the use of state-owned funds is strictly controlled, and there are audits to check. Anyway, you just have to wait, maybe the website will talk to you recently. According to the calculation of 200,000 words per episode, it is now possible to release four episodes first. ”

Chang Zheng: "Uncle Hu wants to help me operate, then of course please let Uncle Hu operate, of course the fertilizer water does not flow into the fields of outsiders." It's just right to come and talk to me. ”

Hu Weihua: "Didn't I just say that we don't have enough budget. ”

Chang Zheng: "Then let's talk about the price within your budget, I'll make less money." It is considered to be a contribution to the country. Although I have authorized them all the rights to operate the copyright, I have to sign it in the end. ”

Hu Weihua squinted and smiled, and his already small eyes turned into a slit: "Are you serious?" ”

Chang Zheng also smiled: "Absolutely serious." We writers are also literati, and literati are all high-spirited and bright, and they regard money as dung. Death for a confidant. ”

"Haha, okay. The child can be taught! Your dad still wants me to take care of you, but I don't think you need me to take care of you at all. When you become a god one day, maybe our society will still rely on you to feed, haha. Hu Weihua patted Chang Zheng on the shoulder and expressed his appreciation.

After leaving the publishing house, Chang Zheng had dinner at a nearby tea restaurant. Today's visit can be regarded as achieving the goal, and Hu Weihua has established a preliminary friendship.

The friendship of comrades-in-arms is solid, but the alliance of interests is even stronger. People are mixed in society, and it is you who help me and I help you, and those who are useful will become friends.

What Chang Zheng has to do now is to make the value of "Infinite Horror" higher, so the higher his worth will be, and the more friends he will naturally have. Farming and hegemony to build empires all started with the first peasants mining and logging. You have to take the first step.
