Chapter 098 With a stroke of the pen, the real money is in hand
"Hey, wake up, Dou Yan, it's home." , Chang Zheng gently patted Dou Yan's cheek and woke her up. Chang Zheng had already sent Dou Yan downstairs to her house.
Dou Yan rubbed her eyes, "Oh, it's here?" ”
Chang Zheng turned off the flame, and said while unbuckling his seat belt: "Isn't your usual alcohol consumption quite good?" Can't stand it after drinking less than a pound today? ”
Dou Yan naturally leaned her head on Chang Zheng's shoulder and began to be coquettish: "With talented people, people are also drunk." ”
"Hey, how do you feel like I'm being drunk with you by you?" , Chang Zheng stroked Dou Yan's hair and said, "Go home and rest early." By the way, I'm going to Songzhou for the first flight tomorrow morning. ”
"Huh? Leaving so early? Don't be in such a hurry, stay a few more days. Dou Yan said that she was very surprised, you left just after holding hands?
Chang Zheng: "Tomorrow I will go to Songzhou to sign the copyright transfer contract of "Evil Spirit". I'm not in a hurry, but Zheng Wu is in a hurry. Well...... Actually, I'm also a little anxious, it's okay to sign it early, the money is still in the pocket for safety, and everything is empty if you don't sign the contract. Okay, I'll take a taxi back to the hotel, and you can go to bed early. ”
At half past five the next morning, Dou Yan drove to the hotel where Chang Zheng was staying, picked up Chang Zheng and took him to the airport.
At the airport security checkpoint, the two hugged and parted.
Dou Yan: "You are not allowed to hook women outside, I will call to check the post every day." ”
Chang Zheng: "You are not allowed to hook up boys." ”
Dou Yan: "I'm going back to Zhaobei tomorrow and going back to deal with the transfer of the store." After the store was sold, I lost my job and was laid off, and you have to support me in the future. ”
Chang Zheng patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry." Three meals are full. ”
The two hugged again, and Chang Zheng dragged his luggage through the security check under Dou Yan's reluctant gaze.
Seven thirty. The plane took off on time. The great capital on the ground is getting smaller and smaller until it is invisible, Chang Zheng is quite emotional, this trip to the capital has gained a lot, connections, wealth, and beauties have been gained, although the future is long and long, but I hope good luck can always accompany me.
Two hours later, the plane arrived at Songzhou Airport. Frequently levy taxis. Go straight to the headquarters of Fenghua.com.
At the headquarters of Fenghua.com, Chang Zheng met old acquaintances, Yang Kai, Big Eyes, Lu Feifei and others.
Yang Kai was happy when he saw Chang Zheng. Said that your kid has just been gone for two months, why did you come again? In order to make money, you are also quite hard. In the past two days, I must slaughter you, and I won't go to the small store. We went to eat at the most expensive restaurant in Jeonsongju.
After Chang Zheng and old acquaintances. Then I came to the negotiation room.
When signing the physical publishing contract for "Infinite Terror" in December last year, Fenghua.com randomly found a conference room and signed it. This time, the place where the contract was signed was replaced by a VIP business negotiation room, and the chairs in the ordinary conference room were all ordinary backrest chairs, while the chairs in the VIP room were leather. This is directly raised by the general committee V.
Judging from the details of the specifications of the negotiation room, Fenghua.com still attaches more importance to the signing of the copyright contract of the book and shadow of "Evil Awe-inspiring".
Chang Zheng entered the VIP room, and he found that there were already many people sitting inside. He knew both of them. Zheng Wu, and Zhou Congshan, deputy head of the signing and publishing group of Fenghua.com.
Zhou Congshan invited Chang Zheng to sit at the negotiating table. He introduced others to Chang Zheng.
The people present included the head of the signing and publishing team of Fenghua.com, the director of the business operation department and the deputy minister, and the team leader and the minister belonged to the highest-ranking middle management of Fenghua.com, and they reported directly to the general manager. The general manager of Fenghua.com is concurrently held by Chairman Cao Mude, who also served concurrently after the New Year, and the former general manager was fired by Cao Dong.
In addition to Deputy General Manager Zheng Wu, the personnel present at the scene of Zhuque Company also included their general manager Mr. Fu and relevant entourage.
The main personnel of the website, the author and the buyer are all present, and under the supervision of legal and auditors, the contract negotiation and signing officially begins.
In fact, the three parties have negotiated in private, which is all a formality, but the "Contract Law", "Procurement Law" and "Copyright Law" have provisions, so even if they go through the motions, they have to go decently, after all, Fenghua.com and Suzaku Company are both formal private enterprises with a big business, and some people are staring at them.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, after friendly and warm negotiations and consultations, the three parties finally reached an agreement:
"Mr. Chang Zheng, whose pen name is the return of the sky. The work "Evil Awe-inspiring" under the pen name of Cangtian Return is a signed work of my Fenghua Literature Network. Now, after the tripartite negotiation between Fenghua Literature Network, Suzaku Culture Communication Co., Ltd., and the author Chang Zheng brackets the return of the sky, an agreement has been reached that the physical book and film and television copyright of "Evil Awe" will be transferred to Zhuque Culture Communication Co., Ltd. for a fee. The negotiation and contract signing of this copyright transfer are in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations of China. If there is no doubt, please acclaud, let's enter the formal signing process! ”
The person who spoke was the head of the business operation department of Fenghua.com, who summarized the negotiation meeting, and then the audience applauded and approved his proposal and entered the formal signing procedure.
The contract must be signed by the legal representative of the company, and the legal representative of Suzaku Company is the general manager Fu Zong. The legal representative of Fenghua.com is Cao Mude, chairman and general manager. Chang Zheng didn't have a unit organization, he didn't open a company, he spoke for himself, and he just signed it himself.
The entity and film and television copyright transfer contracts of "Evil Awe" are each in triplicate.
Chang Zheng carefully checked the contract, and in terms of substance, he took a 15% sales share and a one-time payment of 500,000 yuan, which was the collateral for the consideration of the work. In terms of film and television, he took a transfer fee of 3.5 million. 500,000 and 3,500,000 yuan shall be paid by Suzaku Company to Fenghua.com within 30 days from the date of entry into force of the contract, and Fenghua.com will pay to Chang Zheng after deducting taxes. The sales share of physical books will be settled once a quarter.
OK, no problem. With a stroke of his pen, Chang Zheng signed the contract.
After the Chang Zheng signed, Mr. Fu of Suzaku Company also signed. Five minutes later, Cao Mude appeared in the VIP room in the stars holding the moon, and he signed on behalf of Fenghua.com.
The applause in the VIP room was once again more enthusiastic than just now. The contract is officially signed, in black and white, within 30 days, the money that should be given will be paid, and the money that should be received will be paid.
As the boss of this field, Cao Mude made a concluding speech at the end of the meeting. His speech was very brief, thank you, I will not be able to accompany you in the next meeting, the venue of the dinner has been set, we will meet again in the evening, that's all.
Cao Mude glanced at Chang Zheng when he left. Chang Zheng felt that Cao Dong's eyes were very meaningful when he looked at him, and he couldn't fully comprehend it. Whatever, Dong Cao, you are very busy and can't be accompanied, and I can't accompany him in a long time. The last thing I can do for you may be to finish "Evil Awe-inspiring" well. It's good to get together and disperse.
Chang Zheng dares to think so now because he has just signed the contract, and the real money is about to arrive. With Dou Yan's investment, he will soon be able to take the first step and build the company.
After signing the contract, Chang Zheng spent a busy and fulfilling afternoon and evening.
The contract negotiation and signing lasted from the morning to one o'clock in the afternoon, and it was almost two o'clock, and everyone didn't eat lunch, and Cao Dong only cared about dinner and lunch. So Mr. Fu of Suzaku Company took the initiative to organize lunch.
After lunch, it was time for dinner. So Chang Zheng continued to eat dinner.
This kind of business entertainment meal is actually very tiring to eat. Chang Zheng has to chat with the middle and high-level personnel of Suzaku Company and Fenghua.com, and he can't be too taciturn, but he can't say too much and reveal too much personal information and ideas. When you meet people, you can say three points of truth, especially when dealing with these businessmen and bosses, three points of truth are too much, and you can only tell one point of truth at most.
It's a very hard thing to tell a lie, so after dinner, Chang Zheng is about to lie down. He got up at five o'clock in the morning to catch the plane, and now it is ten o'clock in the evening, and he hardly stops to rest.
Back at the hotel, after taking a shower, Chang Zheng adjusted his mentality and prepared to start coding.
Before the codeword, Chang Zheng received a call from Dou Yan to check the post. She really checks the post, and her words count.
Chang Zheng reported to her about today's work and life, the work was going well, and the contract had been signed. Life is very checked, full of festivals, please rest assured. The two had already held hands and established a boyfriend and girlfriend relationship, and the flirting lasted for more than ten minutes before hanging up.
After leaving Nangang at the end of February, Chang Zheng ran outside for two weeks and went to three cities. He's been so busy for the past two weeks that he barely codes, especially these days, he hasn't even turned on his computer.
The update of "Evil Awe-inspiring" on the Internet, Chang Zheng has set a regular release schedule. As of today, there are no manuscripts left in his author's backend folder, so he now has to plan for the next update.
After signing the copyright transfer contract today, Chang Zheng's heart has been decided. So he is now concentrating on making up for the homework he has missed.
In addition to continuing to write new chapters of "Evil Awe-inspiring", he also had to revise the original manuscript of the first 400,000 words.
After signing the contract, Suzaku Company demonstrated the high efficiency of a private enterprise, and they were ready to immediately operate the publication and listing of the physical book "Evil Awe-inspiring".
According to Zheng Wu's meaning, there will be two episodes first, one episode of 200,000 words. Chang Zheng agreed, and he also wanted to get the sales share early, so he had to revise the original manuscript to meet the physical publishing requirements.
"It's hard to make money." , Chang Zheng sighed while pressing the boot button of the laptop, "The code word is not tired, and it is too tiring to accompany the wine and laugh every day." In the future, I will have to bring a few subordinates who can drink when I go out to socialize, otherwise it will be too much of a loss, and I really can't afford to hurt myself for a long time, and those big guys all have full-time wine guards. Now that I have the money, I have to start recruiting and building up the team. (To be continued......)
