Three days later, at 11:00 a.m., in the office area of the Wind and Dust Heroes Publishing House, Li Ming, the receiving editor, had finished his morning's work, and it was half an hour before dinner.

A big beauty with all kinds of charms on the computer screen, Li Ming is controlling a lewd and trivial frustrated man with a mouse, tearing the clothes of beautiful women one by one, and having fun.

He regretted a little that he didn't dare to turn on the sound effect of this game during work hours, otherwise the frustrated man he controlled would make a bad laugh, and the big beauty would also let out a panicked scream, which would be more enjoyable to play.

When Li Ming was secretly having a good time, the phone on the table rang.

"Which turtle son called?"

Li Ming muttered unpleasantly, but still paused the game, covered the game on the screen with the official website of the Shadow of the Wind and Dust, and picked up the phone.

"Hello? Hello! Which one, please? ”

When he answered the phone, Li Ming didn't look at the caller ID.

The deep voice of the editor-in-chief of the second group came from the phone: "Li Ming! Sign the book "The Great Sword of Rebirth" today! ”

Hearing that it was the voice of the editor-in-chief, Li Ming's expression was straight, and he quickly responded respectfully: "Okay!" Top dog! How much is the upper limit of remuneration? ”

"80 bar! If you can't sign 80, it's okay not to exceed 100! This book is a good idea! Sign it today! Don't let anyone else take the lead! ”

Li Ming: "Okay, okay! Boss, don't worry! Mission completion guaranteed! ”

The editor-in-chief hung up the phone and didn't continue to talk nonsense with him.

After Li Ming put down the phone, he immediately opened his email and found the book "Rebirth of the Great Sword" in the mailbox, although Li Ming usually plays games secretly during his working hours, but there is one thing he does very well, that is, as long as it is the task assigned by the above, he will do his best to complete it as soon as possible.

As the receiving editor, Li Ming does not have the task of reviewing the manuscript, so it is not clear how "The Sword of Rebirth" is written, nor is it clear who the author of the book is.

At this time, receiving instructions from the editor-in-chief, Li Ming opened the author information attached to "The Great Adult Sword of Rebirth".

When he saw the author's name "Iwami", Li Ming felt a little familiar, but when he saw the "Full Moon Scimitar" mentioned in the author's information, he finally remembered who this author was.

——The sales champion of the recent newcomer and new book list of Mingshu Publishing House! A few days ago, there was an editor on the other side of the inscription who privately asked him if he could buy the author's contact information!

However, at that time, Li Ming's judgment was that the sales of "Full Moon Scimitar" were swiped out by the author himself, and the author had no value in poaching, so he rejected the editor of the Inscription Book Agency who contacted him privately.

"Didn't he sell that book?"

Li Ming was puzzled, and then put this doubt behind him, anyway, the editor-in-chief wants to sign this book, no matter whether the book "Rebirth: Dacheng Sword" can make money in the future, he does not need to take responsibility.

All he had to do was sign the publishing rights for the book.

Zhao Yan had just finished writing a chapter, and when he heard the eldest sister downstairs calling him to eat and save the manuscript, he was about to turn off the computer and go downstairs, when the computer speaker suddenly came out with a banging sound on the door.

Zhao Yan glanced at the lower right corner of the computer screen, and found that Lianxun had a system message coming, so he clicked on it casually, and a small friend added information box popped up.

The friend verification message is: Dust Hero Shadow Editor.

The corners of Zhao Yan's mouth curled, although his new book had been signed out, he still wanted to see how much the Wind and Dust Hero would pay him for a thousand words.

Friend verification passed.

Li Ming sent a message.

The sun and the moon accompany me: "Hello! Are you the author of "The Sword of Rebirth"? I am the editor of Storm Heroes, we have received your submission, and now our review results have come out, the editorial team believes that your work has a certain market value, is the copyright of this book still in your hands? ”

The corners of Zhao Yan's mouth curled, and he replied: "How much can you pay for a thousand words?" ”

In the editorial department of the Shadow of the Dust, Li Ming frowned slightly, the other party actually avoided answering his questions and didn't play cards according to the routine?

But he still patiently replied: "80 thousand words!" The average rookie author can only give 50 words per thousand, if you have no objection to this price, then I will send you the electronic version of our contract now! ”

Yan in Xicheng: "It's too low!" What is the maximum amount you can give? ”

Li Ming frowned again, this kid is a little funny!

The sun and the moon accompany me: "85 words at most!" If you want to be higher, I can only ask the editor-in-chief for you! However, I want to remind you first that our editor-in-chief is usually very busy and has a bad temper, and if I help you ask for instructions, he may cancel signing your book! ”

Threat! The threat of a needle!

If it is an ordinary new author, at least nine out of ten will be threatened, and for the average new author, as long as their work can be published, it is very good, how much money can be made, where do they dare to risk asking the other party to ask the editor-in-chief.

But will Zhao Yan be afraid?

"The Great Sword of Rebirth" has been signed out, is he still afraid of hair?

Yan Zaixicheng: "I'm sorry, you said it was late, my book has already been signed for Kyushu to read!" I'm going to dinner, goodbye! ”

After speaking, Zhao Yan turned off the computer and hummed Xiaoqu Xiaolou to eat.

In the editorial department of Storm Hero Film, Li Ming looked at the message that the other party had just replied to him in amazement, and scolded "grass" in his heart, the book was signed to Kyushu to read, why did he submit it to Storm Shadow Film? Play us?

In addition to being annoyed, Li Ming was also a little puzzled in his heart, thinking: Could it be that this guy's last "Full Moon Scimitar" sales were really not brushed? His new book Kyushu reading can also be fancied?

After being stunned for a while, Li Ming found Pluto, the receiving editor of Kyushu Reading, in the Lianxun friend list and sent him a message.

The sun and the moon accompany me: "Brother! Have you recently signed a new book called "The Sword of Rebirth"? ”

Brother, just a title, Pluto's surname, and Li Ming's surname is Li, so naturally they can't be brothers.

The other party replied quickly.

Pluto's telling: "Well, I signed it a few days ago, what's wrong?" ”

Really signed? Li Ming blinked and asked again, "Brother!" When did that book get you submitted? What price tag? ”

What Li Ming thought at this time was that if that Iwami submitted his manuscript to Kyushu to study much earlier than he would submit it to them, he would blacklist this kid in the future and never accept this kid's contribution again.

One draft and multiple submissions, although they are acceptable, but if the other party has signed a contract with another company and submits it to them, it is purely a joke, if you meet such an author, it will definitely be blacklisted.

Pluto's statement: "I submitted a manuscript a few days ago, less than a week! As for the signing price, you also do this business, you should understand that I can't say, I can only say that the price is very high! ”

Li Ming: "......"
