Chapter 1149: Surprised
"Under normal circumstances, 10% royalties are hard to get, but if you can get 8%, it should be very good. However, there are certain ups and downs in the income from copyright. Lu Yiming is not very easy to say.
The market is sometimes very strange, maybe when it was first serialized, the obscure work, after ten or twenty years of release, suddenly has value, and derivatives can also be recognized by readers or audiences.
Therefore, authors/cartoonists rely on copyright to increase their income, and it is not very stable.
Wei Mao's mind was messed up, and he wanted to tell Lu Yiming what he thought, but he was a little uneasy.
Lu Yiming was hired by Fan Yinmo, who knows if he will tell Fan Yinmo today's words?
Until Wei Mao was sent away, Wei Mao didn't talk about the income of "Full House", but only agreed on the time to deliver the name again.
Closing the door, Wei Mao returned to the workbench, leaning back, leaning back on the chair and pillows.
Although the time is set for this time tomorrow, he still can't get into the work state for a while.
Even if he doesn't want copyright income, as long as there are royalties, he is estimated to be rich.
Million? Yes, even if it's only a million? It won't be 40,000 people, and it hurts like being cut meat.
Unexpectedly, he was "harvested" so badly by Fan Yinmo......
Wei Mao held his temples in his hands, wanting to appeal to Fan Yinmo, but he didn't know what to say.
According to the contract, the comics will be finished honestly, and everything will be listened to Fan Yinmo? Or do you want to jump out of the contract and reconnect with Duoman.com?
Wei Mao scratched his head vigorously, unable to think of a clue, and what made him feel even more depressed was that he didn't even have a friend to talk to.
Friend?
You probably think you're making a lot of money, right? Otherwise, no one else would have come to borrow money.
Even, the family began to urge marriage.
"Not to mention millions, hundreds of thousands, right? Hurry up and get married, I'm still waiting to hold my grandson? The guy next door, three or four years younger than you, will make soy sauce for the kids......"
Wei Mao didn't know how to explain it to his parents now.
My current state, to describe it in one word, is "bubble", there is nothing tangible about it.
Wei Mao's face was full of sadness, this matter became a knot in his heart, and he took the pen, and after a few divisions on the tablet, he wiped it all off.
"Who can talk about that?" Wei Mao took a deep breath and thought back to the people he knew, even the people in the studio.
Suddenly, an avatar floated through Wei Mao's mind, and he left with a spirit.
"Qiu Qian!"
Qiu Qian had already entered the studio before him, and she was also serialized on the multi-comic network. When Qian Sheng asked him to watch "Jiazuotang", he saw Qiu Qian's work inside.
She is connected to Duoman.com and Fan Yinmo, and she doesn't know how she balances it.
Or, if she were in her place, what choice would she make?
Thinking of this, Wei Mao's mentality also stabilized, and he made a phone call with Qiu Qian, saying that he wanted to ask her about something.
The final time was set for next Monday, and Wei Mao could finally put this matter behind him for the time being.
Pleasant time flies by like a white horse, but with a heart, time will feel that time is very slow.
This week, for Wei Mao, he belonged to the latter, and he finally stayed up until Monday afternoon, then changed his clothes and went to Qiu Qian's studio.
Qiu Qian is considered to be one of the authors under Fan Yinmo, and she is okay to mix, she has also recorded programs, accepted interviews with paper magazines, and has a group of fans on the Internet.
Just last month, the work was selected for the "Good Works Hall", but the ranking of the comics was in the 40s.
Fortunately, "Jiazuotang" has a three-month protection period, and she will not worry about the danger of being cut in half in a short period of time.
Qiu Qian's studio was converted from her residence, with two bedrooms and one living room, and the living room was equipped with three workbenches, and Qiu Qian's assistants were two female assistants.
According to the address given by Qiu Qian, Wei Mao found Qiu Qian's studio, knocked on the door twice, and after more than ten seconds, no one answered.
Wei Mao was about to knock on the door again, when the door suddenly opened, and a face appeared in the crack of the door, startling him, and he looked intently, only to find that it was Qiu Qian.
"Sister Qiuqian......" Wei Mao greeted.
After Qiu Qian opened the door, she took the lead in walking back, "Come in." ”
Wei Mao followed Qiu Qian into the room and looked at Qiu Qian who was walking in front.
He was wearing a very loose white tracksuit, a pair of cotton slippers on his feet, his hair was a little messy, and he wore a side ponytail and threw it to his shoulders.
Here, he saw the other side of Qiu Qian, a little lazy, and even a little inattentive to the image. Whether you dress or dress up, the purpose is just to make yourself more comfortable.
"Drink something?"
"I ......"
Before Wei Mao could answer, Qiu Qian opened the refrigerator, took out a can of drink from it, and threw it to him casually.
Wei Mao took the drink, and there was a black line on his head - beer.
"I don't usually drink ready-made drinks, that's all I have in the fridge...... Don't get me wrong, I don't drink beer either, someone else brought it. Qiu Qian sat on the work chair, holding a coffee cup, and the spoon stirred Akenwei, but her eyes were staring at Wei Mao, with a smile on her face, "Teacher Wei, who has been popular recently, the intersection between the two of us is not very much, don't say that you just want to visit me, a senior." ”
Wei Mao put the snacks he bought on the workbench, pulled a work chair and sat down, holding the beer in his hand, not knowing where to put it, and finally simply opened the beer and took a sip, "I ......"
"Huh?" Qiu Qian took a sip of coffee and looked at Wei Mao puzzled, "And then?" It's not going to be a confession to me, is it? I didn't even have time to dress up. ”
Wei Mao couldn't smile bitterly, but I had to say that although Qiu Qian didn't wear makeup, she was just without makeup, and she was already middle and upper among girls.
If his girlfriend can have Qiu Qian's level, he will also be very happy.
However, he didn't come here today for this matter.
"That...... I want to ask Sister Qiu Qian one thing, what do you think of the studio? ”
"Isn't it just drawing comics? Find the right assistant and you can do more with less. As soon as Qiu Qian's words came out, she suddenly remembered something, and said in confusion, "You don't want to talk about this kind of studio between Fan Yinmo and us, right?" ”
Maybe it was only for a moment, but Wei Mao could be sure that there was disgust in Qiu Qian's eyes.
"That's right." Wei Mao took a sip of wine.
"I don't feel anything, isn't it just drawing comics? Draw on that platform, not paint? Right? Little brother. Qiu Qian said with a smile.
"But...... It's not about the platform, I mean, are you happy in the studio? ”
"Why do you ask?" Qiu Qian was puzzled.
Maybe it was the alcohol, Wei Mao was a little out of control for a while, "I...... I feel like I'm taking too little money...... Is there a chance to go it alone? ”
"You told me so directly?" Qiu Qian was a little surprised, "Didn't anyone tell you?" ”
"What?"
"I like Fan Yinmo." Qiu Qian explained, "We are lovers. ”
"Huh?"
Wei Mao shuddered in his heart, his brain went blank, and the whole person instantly sobered up.
