I saw that Zheng Changyin cleared his throat and spoke: "I don't want double or triple the manuscript fee." ”

As soon as these words came out, Editor-in-Chief Lin's heart immediately chuckled. Don't do two or three times, do you want ten times? Editor-in-Chief Lin couldn't help but reach out and wipe the sweat from his forehead.

Xiao Zhang was also worried that Zheng Changyin's manuscript fee was too high, and they couldn't afford to pay it, so he couldn't help but interject: "Classmate Zheng, I heard that you are going to college?" This three times the manuscript fee is enough to cover your living expenses. And it's very rich. ”

Before coming, Editor-in-Chief Lin and Xiao Zhang agreed that Zheng Changyin was just a student, and the requirements were not high, and he could definitely sign it for twice the manuscript fee. Unexpectedly, three times the manuscript fee could not satisfy her.

Zheng Changyin has already earned the living expenses of the university, and her starting point is no longer the standard of living expenses. She did not respond directly to Xiao Zhang, but looked at Editor-in-Chief Lin and said, "If I continue to serialize, it will definitely greatly increase the sales of your magazine." ”

Editor-in-Chief Lin and Xiao Zhang's eyes lit up at the same time. Zheng Changyin's words were exactly what they thought, so they came to negotiate in person, for fear that Zheng Changyin would sign another magazine. However, if Zheng Changyin's manuscript fee is too high, what should they do?

While Editor-in-Chief Lin and Xiao Zhang were pondering, Zheng Changyin spoke again. "I don't need a fixed manuscript fee, I want a commission on sales."

A fixed manuscript fee means a stable income, which is the choice of almost all authors. It is too risky to get the manuscript fee according to the sales commission, Zheng Changyin is really confident!

Gu Yufan was the first to object, looked at Zheng Changyin and whispered to persuade: "Changyin, you can think about it one by one." ”

"Don't think about it." Zheng Changyin refused without thinking about it. He turned his face to look at Editor-in-Chief Lin and asked, "Can you accept it?" ”

"Yes! Totally accepted! ”

"Yes! Totally accepted! ”

Editor-in-Chief Lin and Xiao Zhang responded in unison. Charging a fee based on sales volume is a very fair way to calculate. How could they not accept it as long as the author wanted to?

"Mr. Gu, don't worry, Mr. Zheng's writing is very wonderful, and the sales will not be bad." Seeing Gu Yufan frowning, Xiao Zhang comforted. Although it is impossible to predict how the magazine's final sales will be, Xiao Zhang has a hunch that Zheng Changyin's manuscript fee will not be less than three times.

Gu Yufan did not respond. Since it was something that Changyin decided, he could only accept it. Although I don't think it's very reliable in my heart.

"Student Zheng, let's go back and change the agreement now, and then send it to you to sign. In the meantime, you can't sign up for another magazine. "Before it was signed for a day, Editor-in-Chief Lin was not sure, so he had to advise.

"Wait a minute, I'm not done yet."

Editor-in-chief Lin and Xiao Zhang were stunned and glanced at each other. Not done yet? The manuscript fee has been set, what else is there to say? They were puzzled, but they still responded politely: "Student Zheng, please speak." ”

"After the big red, how do you plan to promote it in the future?"

"Double the print magazine, double the circulation."

"That's all?" Zheng Changyin was clearly not satisfied with their answers.

This is a question for Editor-in-Chief Lin and Xiao Zhang. Best-selling, they have also signed, but there is no follow-up promotion.

"What about publishing? What about film and television shooting? Zheng Changyin chose to contribute to "Serial", in addition to being the most popular magazine, but also taking a fancy to its strength. Its head office is a film and television company, which is also well-known on Hong Kong Island.

Editor-in-chief Lin and Xiao Zhang looked at each other, and their mouths opened wide in shock. They really didn't think about it. Nor has the author ever mentioned it. Where did this Zheng get his confidence?

Zheng Changyin only submitted a small part of the manuscript, and it is normal that the two editors failed to explore these business opportunities. Zheng Changyin didn't blame them, and continued: "It's up to you to set a sales target. As long as I achieve this goal, you will have to help me with publishing and film and television matters. ”

Only when the goal is achieved can there be follow-up development. This request was not excessive, and Editor-in-Chief Lin immediately patted his chest and agreed: "Okay!" No problem. ”

"So, does Zheng think there is anything else that needs to be changed in the agreement?"

"No, you can just take it back and change it."

"Okay, okay, we'll send it over immediately. During this period, I also asked Zheng not to sign with other magazines. Before leaving, Editor-in-Chief Lin told him a thousand times, for fear that Zheng Changyin would sign a contract with other magazines.

On the way back, Editor-in-Chief Lin and Xiao Zhang's mood couldn't be calm for a long time. Although he already knew in advance that Zheng Changyin was the champion, he was smarter than ordinary people. But Zheng Changyin's ingenuity was completely beyond their expectations. What is required is long-term sustainable development, which is what the average author can think of?

This classmate Zheng is really only 18 years old, is he really just a high school graduate?

On the other side, Gu Yufan's surprise was no less than that of the two editors.

"Changyin, are you really so confident?" Gu Yufan is still feeling sorry for the triple manuscript fee. He doesn't have the habit of not knowing which category is popular.

"Don't you have faith in me?" Zheng Changyin asked rhetorically.

"I ......" Gu Yufan was speechless, he really didn't have confidence, but he didn't dare to say it! After thinking about it, he said: "Whether you succeed or not, remember that you still have me, and I will raise you." ”

"You mean to say that you want to be the man behind me?" Zheng Changyin smiled mischievously. This sentence was seen in a certain book.

"It's okay to stand behind you, it's okay to stand in front of you. As long as you like. Gu Yufan smiled and touched Zheng Changyin's head, his face full of doting.

Editor-in-chief Lin and Xiao Zhang are very efficient. The next day, the agreement was changed, sent to Zheng Changyin, and the agreement was signed face-to-face.

Zheng Changyin once again became a big celebrity in the village, and everyone praised Liang Jie for giving birth to a good daughter. In contrast, the Zheng family appeared even more destitute.

Zheng Kangjian's case is not yet over and he could be sentenced to several years. He Miao is gone, Yang Hua is old, and the Zheng family now doesn't even have a person to work.

Seeing that there was not much food left at home, Yang Hua was in a hurry.

"Zheng Wenjia, you come over to me!" Yang Hua yelled at Zheng Wenjia.

At this time, Zheng Wenjia was washing the dishes and chopsticks, and was startled when he heard the shout. These days, she has taken care of all the housework, but she is still tired of being a man with her tail back, for fear that she will accidentally anger Yang Hua.

"Grandma, are you looking for me?" Cautiously approached Yang Hua and asked in a low voice.

"There is no money at home, you will give me a part-time job in the factory tomorrow to make money."

As soon as Yang Hua's words fell, Zheng Wenjia's body trembled, and she almost fainted.

"Don't! Grandma, I'm going to repeat it. ”
