Chapter 63: Grabbing a Man's Stomach
Jin Yong did not shy away from Li Le, and after Li Le agreed to serialize Zhuxian, he chatted with Li Le about the remuneration of Zhuxian serialization for a long time.
After all, Zhuxian was not the first to be serialized, and now Zhuxian is already selling well. Li Le didn't have much demand for the remuneration of Zhu Xian's serialization. For Li Le, he doesn't care too much about the remuneration for serializing novels. However, Jin Yong did not take advantage of Li Le's later life. After talking to Li Le, Jin Yong gave Li Le a reward of 500 for 1,000 words, which is already a sky-high price. Li Lezhi said that few writers can get such a price.
500 words in a thousand words, this Jin Yong has also thought about it seriously. After all, the current Zhuxian is too popular, which has attracted many people's interest. In this way, Zhu Xian does not need to be publicized at all. Because there are no physical books on the market, many people will definitely buy Ming Pao in order to read Zhuxian. It is precisely because of this that Jin Yong gave such a high manuscript fee when Zhuxian already had a physical publication. Don't think that Jin Yong gave such a high remuneration because he admired Li Le, you must know that Jin Yong also has an identity as an entrepreneur. After so many years in the industry, will Jin Yong suffer? That's definitely not going to happen.
500 words per thousand, for Zhu Xian, who has more than 1.42 million words after Li Le's revision, Li Le can get a manuscript fee of less than 720,000 Hong Kong dollars. But this is only available for serialization, and it's already very good. Li Le couldn't have imagined that before this, there was a writer who could reach such a high manuscript fee.
"500 words in a thousand words, isn't it too much?" Li Le was surprised in his heart, and he was also a little worried.
"Don't worry! Don't think I'm confused. I'm also a businessman, and I won't let myself suffer. Jin Yong is also very satisfied with Li Le's behavior. In Jin Yong's eyes, Li Le was immediately outlined as a person who is not greedy for cheapness.
"That's it, we'll sign the specific contract when we have time. But what I'm trying to say here is that your Zhuxian may be serialized in Ming Pao tomorrow, do you have any ideas? ”
Of course, Li Le knew that Jin Yong was rushing for time, and he was serializing Zhuxian as soon as possible before the physical book of Zhu Xian. Li Le didn't think much about it and said: "You just look at it, I'm only responsible for signing it." Saying that, Li Le was also happy. Now he can make a lot of money by signing it, which is quite a pleasure.
Jin Yong also smiled and said, "Then it's settled." After a pause, Jin Yong said, "I'll make a call." Saying that, Jin Yong did not shy away from Li Le and Wang Li, so he called the phone. As soon as Jin Yong spoke, Li Le knew what was going on, it turned out that Jin Yong contacted Ming Pao, and was in a hurry to serialize Zhu Xian out of Lu Pao, and strive to appear in Ming Pao tomorrow!
As soon as the phone called, Jin Yong said directly: "Xiao Huang, you go to my office to get a copy of Zhu Xian and hand it over to the typesetting below, tomorrow Zhu Xian will start serialization at our Ming Pao work." "Obviously, the person Jin Yong contacted was his secretary Zai Ming Pao. Li Le didn't know what the specific response of the person on the other side of Lu Dao was, but he guessed from Jin Yong's words that the other party was surprised. Soon, Jin Yong explained the serialization of Zhu Xian. Maybe it was because of the urgency of serialization, Jin Yong directly said that he was serialized for the first time for 10,000 words, and then it was reduced to 5,000 words. Jin Yong, the boss, spoke, and Li Lezhi said that there will definitely be 10,000 words of Zhu Xian in Qian in tomorrow's Ming Pao.
After telling Zhu Xian about the serialization on the phone, Jin Yong said to Li Le: "Li Le, you won't think that I will be cut first, and I won't give you a chance to regret it, right?" ”
Although Lin Leyi and Wang Li were talking on the side, both of them paid attention to the conversation between Li Le and Jin Yong. As soon as Jin Yong finished speaking, Lin Leyi also changed his words and said: "Li Le, don't mind, he is so anxious." After all, he had just met Li Le, and Lin Leyi was also worried that Jin Yong's performance just now would make Li Le feel dissatisfied.
"Mr. Cha, Aunt Lin, it doesn't matter. Mr. Cha is so anxious, but also to spread the good novel as soon as possible! Of course Li Le will not have any regrets, since the decision has been made, Li Le will not say that there is a repetition. Li Leke doesn't care about other people's opinions, maybe you will be Baining Media's side will have opinions. At this point, there is no need to worry at all, Yiming Pao will only be distributed in Hong Kong, and it will not go to Baining Media, which has its headquarters in the mainland. The second is that the copyright of Zhuxian is in the hands of Li Le, and Baining Media has no requirements for whether Zhuxian is serialized in the newspaper.
Jin Yong smiled and didn't say anything more. Jin Yong, with his eyes for many years, knew that Li Le was a believer.
Jin Yong's performance in such a hurry is still very happy in Li Le's opinion! After all, it can be seen that Jin Yong doesn't treat him as an outsider. For Jin Yong, while Li Le admires it, he is also very greedy for the change copyright of Jin Yong's novels. You must know that in the future, whether it is in Hong Kong or the mainland, Jin Yong's novels have been changed into a version. Of course, Li Le also hopes that when he wants to get involved in film and television dramas in the future, he can get the copyright of Jin Yong's novels. Li Lezhi said, those copyrights are golden eggs.
According to Li Lezhi, the copyright of Jin Yong's novel in Hong Kong was handed over to Wireless, because Jin Yong had a good personal relationship with Uncle Shao Liu, who was wireless. I have to say that Jin Yong's martial arts is a big killer, and when wireless competes with ATV for ratings, it remakes Jin Yong's martial arts film and television dramas from time to time, and the effect is surprisingly good. In Hong Kong, only wireless can remake Jin Yong's film and television dramas, and others can only watch wireless be proud over there because they don't have Jin Yong's authorization. It can be said that in the point where Jin Yong's martial arts changed film and television dramas, wireless created a monopoly form in Hong Kong. However, Li Le also knows that wireless is not exclusively authorized, and he still has the opportunity to get the adaptation rights of his novel in Hong Kong in the hands of Jin Yong.
Jin Yong's martial arts are very popular in the entire Chinese community, and it can be said that they are authorized by Jin Yong. Even if you don't shoot, someone will send money to your door and beg you to shoot.
"Li Le, you and Wang Li will stay for lunch at noon!" Lin Leyi said, she was also Duo Wang Li said: "Lily, let me tell you." Capture a man's heart! The most important thing is to grab the other person's stomach. A man's gaze will change over time, but their stomach will not. If you have time in Hong Kong, come over to us and I'll teach you to cook some delicious food and go back to Li Le, and talk to me by the way. ”
Lin Leyi felt that what she said was normal, but Wang Li was a little shy when she heard it. But she also thought in her heart: "Is it really like what Aunt Lin said?" Involuntarily, he secretly glanced at Li Le.
Lin Leyi's words Li Le also heard it, if Wang Li learned to cook a good dish for herself, Li Le would of course be very happy. Li Le also knows that Lin Leyi's cooking skills are very good. I have to say that Jin Yongzhen is very blessed, and the three wives all have good cooking skills. Legend has it that the delicacies described in Jin Yong's novels were all inspired by the dishes made by Jin Yong's wife.
Jin Yong also smiled and said: "What you Aunt Lin said is right, Li Le, Wang Li, you will stay for lunch at noon today." There are two young people in the family, and they also look energetic. ”
Seeing Jin Yong's invitation, Li Le would not agree.
What a rare thing to eat with Jin Yong, except for his own friends.
On the other side, Lin Leyi could also see that Wang Li was a little shy because of her words. Lin Leyi is a person from the past, of course she knows how to handle it. Lin Leyi did not mention the matter between Wang Li and Li Le again, but talked about the food method. Lin Leyi could see that Wang Li was embarrassed on her face, but she was very moved by the statement that she grabbed a man's stomach. Speaking of the depths, Lin Leyi also feels that practice brings out the truth. In addition, the time was not early, so Lin Leyi said to Jin Yong and Li Le, and pulled Li Le into the kitchen.
Watching Lin Leyi take Wang Li away, Jin Yong smiled and said, "Your Aunt Lin has good cooking skills. ”
Li Le smiled and said, "Mr. Cha is a good blessing, if Lily can learn from Aunt Lin, I will be blessed." ”
"Yes, Wang Li is ingenious at first glance, you are truly blessed. Such a good girl, you have to cherish it and don't hurt others. Don't be like me......" Jin Yong paused, perhaps thinking of the fact that he had abandoned his second wife, he sighed and said: "Don't say it, it's not something worth promoting." ”
Regarding Jin Yong's feelings, Li Le didn't have much to say. Li Le also thought that Jin Yong's second wife died in the hospital, and the person who gave her the death certificate was a nurse but not a relative, and he also felt a little sad in his heart. He said very solemnly: "I will be kind to Lily, and I will never hurt her." Although Jin Yong is not Li Le's relative, Li Le still officially assured.
"It's good that you think so." Jin Yong looked at Li Le seriously, but didn't say any more. After all, he doesn't do well in emotional matters, and he can't talk to others. Everyone knows that Jin Yong was also romantic when he was young, and he didn't count if he had a wife, and he was in unrequited love for Xia Meng, who was young and beautiful at the time.
