Chapter 087: Chips

Chang Zheng now understands that Zheng Wu's intention is not to ask for copyright, but to ask for people. Chang Zheng is now free, and the contract he signed with Fenghua.com is limited to the works under the pen name "Return of the Sky", that is, "Infinite Terror" and "Evil Awe-inspiring".

However, according to Chang Zheng's five years of experience as an editor, he knows that if "Evil Awe" becomes popular and the sky returns and is promoted to a god, maybe from the third book, he will have to sign a deed of sale with Fenghua.com.

"Infinite Terror" and "Evil Awe-inspiring", Chang Zheng signed a sharing agreement with Fenghua.com, which is only for the work.

The so-called deed of sale, that is, the signing of the person, the signing of the author himself, is similar to the labor contract. After signing this contract, the pen name of Cangtian Return can only be posted on Fenghua Network within three years, five years, and XX years. It doesn't matter if you write a book a year or a hundred, you have to post it on Fenghua.com. As for the author's subscription and copyright income, it is almost fifty-five points compared to the website. Zheng Wu actually meant the same thing, and he also wanted to sign a deed of sale with Chang Zheng.

For most writers, it is of course impossible to sign a long-term contract with Fenghua.com, the largest online website in the country. If you want to ask someone, they won't necessarily give it to you. As a contract writer for the website, the website must recommend the writer's work to the death, and praise as high as it can. This kind of "selling one's body" treatment is not something that ordinary writers can enjoy, and they have to have a godhead.

But Chang Zheng didn't want to sell himself, he didn't sell to Fenghua.com, he didn't sell to Suzaku Company, and no one sold him. I'm in charge of my discipline.

Zheng Wu saw that Chang Zheng lowered his head and pondered without speaking, of course he didn't know what Chang Zheng's current mental activities were. So he added: "Cangtian, I have read both "Infinite Terror" and "Evil Awe", I admire your talent, both of which are very good works. Our company is currently on the rise, and we need excellent young writers like you to join, as long as we can join forces, I believe it will be a win-win situation. I sincerely hope that you can consider my suggestion, sign a contract with us, and let us meet a bright future together! ”

Zheng Wu said that it was full of emotion and was very infectious. Chang Zheng was almost moved by him.

Chang Zheng knew why Zheng Wu invited himself to tea alone. It's very simple, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong. The return of the sky is the most dazzling new star that has risen on the Internet in the past six months, and he has become famous, and the organization that comes to poach and rob people will naturally appear.

The most critical point is that Zheng Wu must have figured out the current situation of Chang Zheng as a free body. If there is a master, they will definitely not rob it, and Chang Zheng is a popular writer who is a cutting-edge writer who has not signed a deed of sale, which is the most popular.

To be favored by the Suzaku company, Chang Zheng is actually a little proud, in the past, he was at most favored by the editor of the foreign station, or that kind of small and medium-sized website, whether there is a formal online business license is not clear.

But proudly complacent, Chang Zheng's will is very firm and cannot be signed. How can I open a company by myself after signing a contract?

Chang Zheng said to Zheng Wu sincerely: "Brother Zheng, first of all, I am very grateful to you, really. You look up to me, and I'm really flattered. Brother Zheng, you just said that you don't like the restrained living and working atmosphere, in this regard, we are quite similar, hehe. I'm actually quite loose, I like freedom, sometimes I may run around the world when I go crazy, and it's normal to not find me for a few years. I'm probably going to disappoint you. ”

Chang Zheng was telling the truth, but in Zheng Wu's ears, he had another experience.

Zheng Wu still had a smile on his face, he was not in a hurry to affirm or refute Chang Zheng's remarks, he slowly opened his chips: "Cangtian, in fact, you and I both know that when you post on the Internet, electronic subscriptions are not the main source of income, and royalties are the main thing." As far as I know, the royalty sharing agreement you signed with Fenghua.com, except for the physical publishing of seven of them, you are five or five percent of the rest of the copyright transfer income. If you can join us and become our contracted writer, we can give you more favorable treatment. Since that's the case, then Brother Zheng and I will get straight to the point. We will pay you a one-time buyout fee for the book you write, which is the realm of physical publishing. I assure you that the buyout fee we give you will not disappoint you. ”

Speaking of this, Zheng Wu raised his right index finger with a confident smile: "A thousand words and a thousand yuan, only a lot more, the upper limit can be discussed." ”

Hey! Thousands of words, thousands of dollars, a lot of money! Although Chang Zheng was silent on the surface, he was still shocked in his heart. This Deputy General Manager Zheng Wu Zheng thought that I didn't agree to him to raise the price, right? But it is undeniable that Zheng Wu's price is very attractive. Take "Infinite Terror" as an example, Chang Zheng wrote 2.05 million words, and if he buys out thousands of words and 1,000 yuan, Chang Zheng can get a buyout fee of 2.05 million.

He sold the copyright of "Infinite Terror" to Nangang Literature and Art Publishing House, taking 12% of the sales share, and Fenghua.com had to take 30%. Selling 300,000 sets of "Infinite Terror", he can get 2.05 million.

Of course, "Infinite Terror" is selling well now, selling 90,000 units in less than a month after it was launched. But now is the hot selling period, and the further back you go, the more the sales will show a downward trend, which is the law of the market.

Zheng Wukai's price is a thousand words and a thousand yuan, and it is only a lot more, and there are four words "the upper limit can be discussed" makes people reverie, everything is possible. Tempting indeed.

Chang Zheng was a little confused about how to explain: "Brother Zheng, you may have misunderstood, I didn't mean that." ”

Chang Zheng said that he didn't mean that, and he didn't want to sit on the ground and raise the price. The candy you Zheng Wu gave is sweet and delicious, but there is a price to pay for eating your candy. Chang Zheng knows that the deed of sale in the industry is at least three years. How many three years are there in your life?

Zheng Wu was not in a hurry or annoyed, and Chang Zheng's reaction seemed to be expected by him. The index finger of his right hand was still upright, and at this time, the other four fingers of his right hand were also erect. Zheng Wu flipped the palm of his right hand and said, "In addition to the buyout fee, you can also get a share of the sales." Retail sales within 100,000 units, you take 5%. 100,000 to 200,000 sets, take 10%. 200,000 to 300,000 sets, 15%. 300,000 to 400,000 sets, 20%. The 20% cap means that after selling 300,000 sets, you will get a 20% share of the sales. The 20% is all yours, so you don't have to be pumped. ”

Zheng Wu continued to add chips, and he added them very hard.

If Chang Zheng didn't have the grand desire to establish a cultural company and a cultural empire, he would now want to sign a contract with Suzaku Company directly.

People will always encounter temptation. If Chang Zheng signs a contract with Suzaku Company, he will live a very comfortable life. Anyway, it's all about writing books, and where to write is not to write.

In fact, being a feudal official is far easier than that of the emperor. The feudal officials dominate one side, and they live quite nourishingly, the money is not as much as the emperor, but it is definitely enough to spend, and it is enough to spend three lifetimes. There are not as many women as the emperor but they are definitely enough, after saying that the emperor is the queen. Palace three thousand beauties, can he use it up? The key is that the officials of the feudal territory don't have to worry about what responsibilities, and the emperor will bear the burden when the sky falls.

But why did so many feudal officials in history risk losing their heads and punishing the nine clans, and they also wanted to rob an emperor to be the emperor?

Ambition.

Chang Zheng is ambitious, and he is unwilling to be recruited. So he said, "Brother Zheng, it's a pity. Although I am very tempted, I still can't promise you, please forgive me. ”
