Chapter 629: Confrontation
Hearing Shen Xin's words, Bao Jiyi's face instantly turned ugly.
How could he not know Shen Xin's original conditions...... No, it should be said that he really didn't know Shen Xin's conditions, because Shen Xin didn't say it at all.
That's why he's ready to fool the past.
In his opinion, the magazine has made a big concession by agreeing to the "7:3" share proposed by Shen Xin, but judging from the current situation, Shen Xin is not satisfied.
Do you want a "9:1" split?
"What are your conditions?" Bao Jiyi looked at Shen Xin's eyes, and suddenly he was sharp.
"Freedom." Shen Xin said simply.
"What?"
Bao Jiyi and Shang Haozhi were confused.
Freely?
They didn't restrict Shen Xin, what freedom did Shen Xin want? He already had it.
Shen Xin knew that his words were too simple, so he explained again: "First, I will only sign a work agreement with "Comic Future" in the future, and during the serialization period, I can sign new serialization contracts with other magazines.
"Second, for future works, I will only give the magazine comic copyright, and I will take back all other related copyrights. If you want other copyrights, such as animations, or games...... We renegotiate. ”
As soon as Shen Xin's words fell, the green tendons on Bao Jiyi's forehead bulged, his face turned red, and his eyes were almost bloodshot.
Shang Haozhi also felt a headache, he had already guessed that what Shen Xin said might not be simple, but he didn't expect it to be so tricky.
The author wants to jump out of the contract of the magazine!? No author can do it, right?
No matter how powerful a cartoonist is, he also needs a platform, otherwise, why can't other magazines have "fired" comics?
The name of the first issue of domestic comics still has a certain influence in China. Shen Xin, don't misestimate the situation.
Shang Haozhi looked at Shen Xin with regret, he had seen too many talented cartoonists, because he overestimated himself, or took too much fancy to his works, and parted ways with the magazine, and in the end, disappeared.
"That's your condition?" Bao Jiyi glared at Shen Xin angrily.
To this day, his heart was still beating with anger.
"That's right." Shen Xin nodded.
"Impossible!" Bao Jiyi gritted his teeth and said, "Everything else is easy to say, but these two are not good!" ”
Shen Xin shrugged, "No, then let's not talk about it." ”
He is not in a hurry, "Steel" is about to end, and it is definitely impossible for him to sign the contract for the next comic.
"Teacher Shen, if you continue to make trouble, it won't be good for you." Shang Haozhi reminded.
"Mr. Shang, I know you are good to me. However, the money I make now should be enough to spend for the rest of my life, but I can't do it, I can be an illustrator, make a character for the game, and also ensure that I have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of my life. Tell me, why am I so tired? Shen Xin raised his head and stared at Shang Haozhi coldly, "There must be a reason, right?" ”
“……”
Shang Haozhi was dumbfounded, he hurriedly looked at Bao Jiyi, but noticed that his face was pale.
Anger was unabashedly on his face.
Shen Xin was not afraid at all, he glanced at the contract on the table, and said with a smile: "The two of you shouldn't have the heart to talk about this matter anymore, this ...... We'll talk about that later, shall we? ”
“……”
Whether it was Shang Haozhi or Bao Jiyi, they didn't expect Shen Xin's attitude to be so resolute, and he didn't have any intention of backing down.
Seeing Shen Xin leave, Bao Jiyi angrily tore the contract on the desktop into shreds, threw it into the trash, and looked at Shang Haozhi with a hideous face, "Old Shang, what does he want to do!?" Magazines have already made concessions! Who does he think he is? Want copyright? Want to get out of the contract? Did he really think he could do it? ”
Shang Haozhi didn't expect this to be the case, he knew it was like this, maybe he should have asked Shen Xin in advance.
But then again, can asking ahead of time solve the problem?
Listening to Shen Xin's tone, there was no possibility of backing down.
Headache.
To be honest, relying on the current level of "Steel Forge", the magazine can indeed abolish the exclusivity agreement for Shen Xin, because cartoonists are no better than other positions, drawing 20 pages a week, which tests the physical strength and will of cartoonists. It's almost impossible to update two manga a week, so the loss for Comic Future isn't huge.
The problem now is that no cartoonist has ever been able to get the copyright in the hands of a magazine.
If Shen Xin really succeeds, then Ye Hexu also wants copyright in the future, what should I do? And Xi Muhan and Luo Zheng?
It's hard to go from 0 to 1, but it's not too complicated to go from 1 to 2, and once you open the opening, it's probably not easy to block it.
Shen Xin, this step is really bold......
Shang Haozhi rubbed his chin, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"What now?" Shang Haozhi asked.
"Didn't he take a two-month hiatus? Then let him take a break, I don't believe that "Comic Future" would not be able to operate normally without Shen Xin. Hurry up and find the next pillar comic, by the way, "Steel" will be cold for a while. ”
"How much is it for a period of time?" Shang Haozhi hurriedly asked.
"Three months, let him recuperate 'well'." Bao Ji was so angry that he suddenly lost his good temper.
He had never met such a disobedient author who negotiated terms with "Comic Future".
Bao Jiyi was a little confused.
Trimester?
Shang Haozhi's mouth opened slightly, you are really willing to ......
Suddenly, Shang Haozhi remembered something, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No...... You can't do that......"
"What's wrong?" Bao Ji looked at Shang Haozhi puzzled.
"Animation! Just now, Superintendent Shoji and Mr. Shen agreed that in order to ensure the progress of the animation, Mr. Shen will update 40 pages a week after the republication...... If you want to card the serialization time of "Steel", orochi, "Shonen Leap", Shoji Uno, they may not be willing, and Wanji, this company is also a game giant in District 11. Did you really decide to give Mr. Shen a three-month break? Their interests are at stake. Shang Haozhi asked rhetorically.
“…… Stop! Bao Jiyi gritted his teeth and said.
He didn't want to do this, and he knew the situation of "Comic Future" without Shen Xin, but now, he had to persevere.
He and Shen Xin, the one who can't hold on, will lose all the games.
"By the way, in recent times, I have vigorously promoted "The King of Rock and Roll" and "Otherworldly Restaurant", and also urged Mr. Ye...... Let him hurry up and prepare the next comic. Bao Jiyi advised.
"Hmm."
Shang Haozhi nodded, when this situation came, he was worried that he could no longer solve the problem, so he could only go on hard.
Bao Dong ...... Three months at most, otherwise, even if it's "Steel...... I'm afraid it will be difficult to get up again in the future. In the end, it was we who lost the most. Shang Haozhi said stiffly.
"I know."
Bao Jiyi nodded, and took three months as the boundary to see who couldn't hold on first.
Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
