Chapter 206: Going Overseas

> corner, cafΓ©.

Looking at her younger brother who was enjoying the coffee, Sun Ya's cheeks twitched, and she finally held back the anger in her heart and said, "Xiaopeng, I'm just your agent, not your employee...... Register a company, you have to find someone to do this kind of thing! ”

"Sister, don't say that!"

Putting down the cup in his hand, Sun Peng said with a hippie smile: "Your brother doesn't go out of the door on weekdays, where do you know about registering a company?" Can you help...... By the way, I also plan to hire you as the legal counsel of the new company, and if you are interested, the general manager can also do it! ”

"Go, don't be poor!"

Glancing at Sun Peng, Sun Ya said angrily: "What kind of general manager will I give you as a lawyer?" And what you're going to do is animation, and I don't know ......."

Although there were still no good words, Sun Ya's attitude softened significantly.

Regarding the fact that his younger brother wants to set up an animation company, Sun Jing didn't say much after learning more about it, anyway, he made it with his own money, and they are all so adults, there is no reason for him to interfere as a sister. But what makes Sun Ya depressed is that this kid doesn't understand anything, and he wants to spread everything on her head when he comes up, but if he really wants to refuse, he can't be ruthless......

Sighing, Sun Ya said helplessly: "Xiaopeng, those tens of millions are your own money, how to spend it is your own business, but you don't think that a so-called technical director can support the entire company, right?" That's about technology, not about the company...... And don't say anything about making me a general manager, I don't have that ability! What you need is a professional who can help you manage an animation company! For example, if you find a manager in advance, do you still need me to register a company? ”

"Uh......"

After smacking his teeth, Sun Peng also had a headache.

He knows his own business, Sun Peng knows very well that he is not the material to be a manager, and he always has trouble when he is a hospital in his previous life, let alone manage a company well. And Hou Qingqing herself made it clear that managing an animation production team is okay, but if it really involves the company's operations, personnel management, and even the promotion of animation in the future, she is also blinded.

After thinking about it for a while, Sun Peng asked very humbly: "Sister, what do you say I should do?" ”

"Let's find a headhunter!"

After hesitating for a moment, Sun Ya shook her head and said: "The domestic animation industry is also slowly rising now, and there should be a lot of outstanding talents." And now that you have money and fame, as long as you give up a high salary and take out some shares, I don't think it should be a problem to find a good manager! ”

"Huh? Do you want to give shares? Can't I pay a higher salary? ”

Glaring, Sun Peng was a little reluctant.

Sun Peng was willing to give shares to people like Hou Qingqing, because he felt that people with technology were very good, but to give shares to future company managers...... The management of Xiaobai, who has never been an official, is not happy. In his opinion, you don't have anything to do with animation.,It's just responsible for the daily maintenance of the company or something.,What kind of bicycle!

"How fresh, who will come if you don't give shares?"

Glancing at her younger brother, Sun Ya said angrily: "Don't forget that your company hasn't been registered yet, and a new company can attract excellent managers only by salary?" Don't you stare...... Do you think it's easy to be a good manager? Take your shell animation company as an example, people must be able to help you set up a company team, be able to manage them well, understand the various processes of animation planning, production, and publicity, understand the knowledge of personnel, finance and other aspects, and even understand the current situation of the domestic animation industry, national support policies, etc., what can ordinary people do? You are still reluctant to take a stake in this kind of talent? ”

"Uh...... That's just as well. ”

After pondering for a while, Sun Peng must also admit that he thought too simply.

However, Sun Peng still felt a pain in his heart when he thought of giving shares to others, and sighed and said: "Okay, sister, you can help me find a headhunting company......

"Stupid, you go to our brother-in-law!"

Rolling her eyes, Sun Ya raised her forehead and sighed: "I'll tell you again, I'm just a lawyer and your agent, how much do you think I know more than you in this area?" Of course, this kind of thing is to go to my brother-in-law, who deals with headhunters every day...... Ouch, the editor has finished reading it! ”

While reminding her brother in a whisper, Sun Ya stood up with a smile.

Of course, she has no interest in drinking coffee with her brother, and she came here today to make an appointment with someone - Feng Jiating, the editor of Sunflower Publishing House, a thirty-six-seventeen-year-old female editor.

For the past hour, the Feng editor has been reading the picture book "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe".

walked over and said hello to Sun Ya first, and then handed the bag full of picture books to Sun Peng, Feng Guiting smiled respectfully and reservedly: "Teacher Sun, your picture books...... It's very exciting, I really forgot the time to watch it just now, I'm sorry! ”

It is Sun Peng and his works that are respected, and what is reserved is his identity.

Sun Ya did not hide it when she contacted Sunflower Publishing House, and even directly pointed out the identity of her younger brother as a "famous writer". After all, it is a children's book publisher, and it is normal not to know martial arts. Fortunately, thanks to her advance explanation, Sunflower Publishing House paid enough attention to it for the first time, and sent Feng Guiting, the elite of the editorial department, to meet in a place other than the publishing house, which was a kind of respect.

Feng Guiting specially bought the physical books of Condor Shooting, Xiaoao and Divine Condor to read - although she really didn't like it after reading it, it didn't prevent her from understanding the weight of the other party through the text and sales results, and knew that this was indeed a rising cutting-edge writer!

But on the other hand, publishers have their own concerns.

Although Sun Peng's books are selling very well now, they are all adult books after all, and Sunflower is a pure children's book publishing house, so before Sun Peng proved himself in this field, Feng Guiting's attitude towards him was to show appropriate respect, but also to have his own reserve.

But......

Thinking of the whole set of picture books that she was fascinated by just now, Feng Guiting couldn't help but sigh.

Although I was indeed a little optimistic about this Mr. Sun before I came, after all, the difference between adult books and children's picture books is too big, so big that it has nothing to do with writing skills, so after Feng Guiting read a few martial arts books, it is hard to imagine that their authors can create picture books that children like.

But Feng Guiting, who originally came to see Sun Peng with the intention of knowing more of a great writer, had to admit after watching "The Lion, the Witch and the Magic Wardrobe": There are really geniuses in this world!

A set of picture books that can fascinate her, how long has it been since she has seen it?

So after reading the picture book and realizing that more than an hour had passed, Feng Guiting immediately gave her judgment: this set of picture books must be taken down as soon as possible, after all, people are now well-known writers, and a slight delay may lead to long nights and dreams......

Because everyone had already greeted each other when they first met, Sun Peng was not polite after sitting down, and asked directly: "Editor Feng, you have finished reading the whole set of picture books, are you interested?" ”

"Of course! I'm very interested! ”

Taking a deep breath, Feng Guiting's answer was categorical, and then immediately continued: "Mr. Sun, today is Saturday, and I will submit an application for topic selection as soon as I go to work next Monday, I think if nothing else, can you or the agent come to our publishing house next Tuesday?" Also, if it's convenient, can I bring the manuscript back to the club? In this way, you can let the editor-in-chief take a look at it first, and it can be more efficient when you go back to talk. ”

"Hehe, no problem!"

Glancing at the second sister, a smile appeared on Sun Peng's face: "But I have a question I want to ask first, if this set of picture books is published in your society, when will it be published?" How much is the royalty? How much is the first print? ”

Feng Guiting hesitated slightly, and said calmly: "The quality of your manuscript is very high, I think it will be no problem to publish directly without revision, it should be very fast!" As for the royalties and the number of first prints of our publishing house...... To tell the truth, there are strict rules, depending on the quality of the picture book, the royalty of the new author is between eight and ten points, and the first printing is between 3,000 and 10,000 copies......"

"However, our Sun Peng is not a newcomer, in fact, he is already very famous!"

With a slight narrowing of her eyes, Sun Ya said with a smile.

"Yes, but that's not in the field of children's books."

Also smiling slightly, Feng Guiting said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Although Mr. Sun's is very successful, this is his first set of books in the field of children's picture books...... Of course, we can negotiate specific figures at that time, and everything is negotiable. ”

After pondering for a while, Sun Peng smiled and said, "It's okay, let's just go back and talk about these things slowly!" Editor Feng, I have a watermarked sketch here, you can take it back and take it with you. ”

After saying this, Sun Peng took out another big bag from his bag.

I just showed it to people the final version, but if you want to bring it back, you can only give the watermarked version. This is a common means for authors to protect their copyrights, and Feng Guiting naturally didn't care, nodding with a smile and accepting it.

Because today is just a preliminary judgment on the quality of picture books, and at the same time get to know each other, so after chatting for a while, Feng Guiting is going to leave. However, before leaving, she finally couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Sun, I think the story of the picture book takes place in the UK, why do you want to create a foreign picture book story?" ”

"Well, there are two main reasons."

Smiling slightly, Sun Peng said without blushing or panting: "One is that the style of the story is more Western, which is not very suitable if it is forced in China; In addition, I also want to try this set of picture books to see if I can develop overseas...... Haha, thinking too much, it makes you laugh! ”

"Where, you're so polite!"

Hearing Sun Peng say this, Feng Guiting's expression became serious: "Teacher Sun, I don't think there is a problem with your idea, because after reading it just now, I have a feeling that the style of this set of books may be more suitable for Europe and the United States, maybe you can really try to push it out in the future......
