Chapter 546: Zuo Yuan's attitude
"Trust me? But...... What's the use? Will Comic Future believe me? Do other magazines believe me? Are there any magazines that are willing to accept my manuscripts? ”
Faced with Zuo Yuan's inquiry, Yan Fei couldn't answer.
No matter what she says, she is just an ordinary editor-in-charge, even if she agrees with Zuo Yuan, it does not mean that the editor-in-chief agrees, not to mention that there is also the management of the magazine above.
For a cartoonist like Zuo Yuan who works hard for serialization, the magazine will not spend too much energy on him, because there are too many such authors, and the magazine is a company, and profit comes first.
Therefore, it is difficult for an author like Zuo Yuan, who has no outstanding historical achievements and is tainted, to be recognized by the magazine.
Seeing Yan Fei's reaction, Zuo Yuan also knew that his situation was too difficult, and besides, ordinary people couldn't help him.
"I'm sorry for saying so many things that embarrassed you." Zuo Yuan apologized.
"No, it's because I didn't think it through." Yan Fei clenched her fists, but she also knew that if anger was useful, Zuo Yuan would have pierced the sky a long time ago.
"I ...... Tell you, where the 30,000 yuan went. Mr. Yan, can you come over for a moment? Zuo Yuan walked towards the bedroom, Yan Fei thought about it, got up and followed Zuo Yuan, and came inside.
saw Zuo Yuan holding the key, opened the bedside table, and took out 30,000 yuan from it.
Yan Fei looked stunned, "Wait...... Why do you have to go to a construction site if you don't have money? ”
"Teacher Yan, you are wrong, these money are only in my hands, but they are not my money. Do you understand? Zuo Yuan looked up at Yan Fei, "These are Zheng Ping's money, not mine." ”
How so?
Yan Fei looked at Zuo Yuan, who looked haggard, a little incredulous.
It's clear that we've come to this point...... How can there be such people in this world?
Regarding Zuo Yuan's decision, Yan Fei can't say whether it is good or bad, but one thing can be determined, he should be a principled person.
"One more thing, can I ask you?" Yan Fei asked.
"Hmm."
"The first word...... Why is your first word a line drawing instead of a finished product? All the original manuscripts at the end? ”
"Actually, the creation of this manga was very accidental, and it was originally a work that I used to accumulate experience, so I just drew a line drawing, because I didn't have the money and time to draw it in more detail. It wasn't until Duoman gave me a contract that I had the idea to create a manga. But the first three episodes have already drawn a line draft, and the website also has requirements for updates, so I can only update the comics while modifying the line drawings of the first three episodes......"
"You mean, a manuscript like the first sentence originally had three words?" Yan Fei was surprised.
"In fact, the revised draft of the first sentence has been almost drawn. If it hadn't been for this time, the original draft of the first episode would have been completed, and maybe I'm working on the original manuscript of the latest episode......"
"Wait a minute, you mean the first sentence is about to be revised?"
"Well, there's still some details to be done." Zuo Yuan explained.
"Can I read the manuscript?" Yan Fei asked.
Zuo Yuan nodded, "These drafts are useless anyway." ”
The contract is in Duoman.com, which means that it is impossible for any company to accept this manuscript except for Duoman.com, which is also the most difficult place for Zuo Yuan.
Although the manuscript has been drawn, it cannot be serialized, which should be the most uncomfortable for the author, right?
Zuo Yuan rummaged through the manuscript from the desk, sorted it out, and handed it to Yan Fei.
Yan Fei read every page carefully, and I have to say that after drawing lines and dotting the dot paper, the possibility of readers accepting the comics is higher.
If the finished draft of the first episode can replace the original line draft, maybe "Minecraft" can be ranked better.
The more she reads the comics, the more uncomfortable Yan Fei's heart becomes.
Those who violate the rules go unpunished, and those who work hard are punished instead.
This bastard's world!
"Thank you. Let me know a lot of things. Yan Fei smiled reluctantly.
"It doesn't matter. It's good that someone is willing to listen to me. That, Mr. Xu...... Are you disappointed in me? Zuo Yuan asked.
"It's okay......"
Yan Fei wanted to persuade Zuo Yuan, but in the face of this matter, the attitude of her and several editors could not influence the development of the situation.
Zuo Yuan is not her author, and "Minecraft" is not the work of "Comic Future", she has no reason to focus on Zuo Yuan, but when she sees Zuo Yuan in front of her, she feels that she should help him.
Abominable Wang Wenhong! If he hadn't allowed himself to go upstairs yesterday, none of this would have happened!
Looking around, Yan Fei glanced at Zuo Yuan, who was dressed in dirty clothes, she took out her wallet and took out the whole money inside, "I still have some money here, you take ...... first"
"Teacher Yan, what about 30,000 yuan in my house?"
"Why are you so rigid?" Yan Fei was a little annoyed.
"Perhaps? I also knew that accepting the money was the best option, but I really couldn't get my hands on it and take the money...... Teacher, think about it, if I moved the 30,000 yuan, and I said that I didn't swipe the ticket, do you still believe it? ”
“……”
Yan Fei had nothing to say.
If Zuo Yuan really touched the money, I'm afraid he wouldn't believe his words.
Damn it! Why is it so hard for people to live?
Yan Fei rubbed her forehead, "That's ...... I want a copy of the original manuscript of the first episode, and the five hundred yuan is the money to buy a copy, ok? ”
"If I want a copy, I can give it, but I can't take money - if I do, it's equivalent to selling the manuscript, and the contract doesn't allow the author to make a profit from the manuscript of this comic...... A copy of this manuscript will be sent to you. But I can only circulate it privately, not online, otherwise, I can't afford to be responsible. ”
Yan Fei sighed, this is where the contract is unfair, but the author has no way, if he doesn't sign the contract, there will be no serialization, and there will be no income.
What's more, even if he goes to court, Zuo Yuan can't afford to pay the legal fees or hire a lawyer. What's more, the trial period of the case is also very long, and the delay can drag the author to death.
"I see." Yan Fei nodded weakly.
"Teacher Yan, can I ask one thing?"
"Huh? I...... Can you still draw comics? Zuo Yuan looked at Yan Fei.
"......" Yan Fei opened her mouth, and could only give a vague answer, "It should be...... Probably can, right? ”
She is not 100% sure of this kind of thing.
……
Shen Xin worked in front of the workbench all day, and the mobile phone on the desktop was also quiet all day, as if yesterday's incident had not happened at all.
After dinner, the mobile phone still did not move, which made Shen Xin wonder if his mobile phone was broken.
Whether his speculation about "being swiped" is true or false, there should always be an echo, right? No response until now, why?
Shen Xin was confused.
"Ding-dong."
The door suddenly sounded, and Liu Rui got up to open the door.
Shen Xin glanced downstairs, and Wang Wenhong was the first to come in, and then ...... He helped Yan Fei and walked into the studio.
"What's wrong with Sister Yan?"
"Drunk." Wang Wenhong didn't have a good air, so he asked Liu Rui to come over to help, and helped Yan Fei to the sofa on the first floor to rest, "Is Auntie there?" Trouble making a bowl of decanting soup. ”
“……”
Shen Xin looked at Yan Fei lying on the sofa, looking depressed, did she forget something?
