Chapter 43: The novel is on the list

"It's long overdue, it's really inconvenient not to have a car. Our villa area here, it's too remote, you can't get a taxi when you go out, there is no bus for half an hour, don't drive your Tesla, do we walk to the company. ”

Zhuo Hanshan complained, snatched a few car keys, and ran to the stairs leading to the underground garage first, apparently to see the car.

Jiao Bai shook his head, as the human skin was equipped for a long time, the humanity of these zombies gradually recovered, and the relationship with him was more like a friend than a master and servant, so it was better to get along with each other more comfortably.

"I'm going out to use the car in a while, you guys go to work today and drive that Rolls-Royce first, I was already charged last night. Even if you don't have a license plate, no traffic police officer will check the car. ”

Pineapple was stunned when he sat next to him, and the coffee that Tian Tian poured him was cold and didn't take a sip. What are they talking about, one moment is the game beta, the other is the installation of supercomputing, and then the woman actually said that Taobao sold 15 million a week, and now a Rolls-Royce has appeared, which is still charging.

Pineapple is usually a car fan, often browsing various car information on the Internet and magazines, as far as he knows, Rolls-Royce has only launched one electric model so far - Rolls-Royce 102EX, is the electric version of the Rolls-Royce Phantom, the price is as high as more than 10 million, these people are not talking about it! It's just terrifying, it's either that these people are collectively hysterical and bragging, or this Jiao Bai is a big tyrant.

From the moment I learned that this "Otherworldly Trinity" lived in the villa area, I knew that this person was not bad for money, but I didn't expect it to be so arrogant. This is not good news, Pineapple has also dealt with several website gods, most of these rich authors don't care about royalties, but they will deduct the terms of the contract, which is very troublesome.

After sending off the four subordinates, Jiao Bai and Pineapple sat together and talked about the signing of the novel. Tian Tian came over, changed a pot of tea, poured a cup for each of them, and then left to continue to do housework. This villa has three floors, plus an underground garage, a total of thousands of square meters, which need to be cleaned by her, which is not easy.

Pineapple pointed to Tian Tian's back and asked, "Mr. Jiao Bai, take the liberty of asking, this Miss Tian Tian is a robot?" ”

"You can see it, she is a product of our company's laboratory, and I am here for technical testing."

"Then your company's technology is really good, if this is put on the market, it won't sell crazy."

Pineapple gave a thumbs up, her face full of admiration, this is a real technical strength, and you can't do anything fake.

Jiao Bai shook his head with a wry smile, he didn't have the technology to produce sweetness in his hands, even if there was a possibility of putting it on the market, there was nothing that was promoted in the end of the world, he didn't believe that it could be accepted by the public on the earth.

"The cost is too high, and it's basically impossible to put it on the market. Don't talk about this, let's go back to the contract, I read the contract template provided by the author's background, and everything else is fine, but I have to hold the film and television adaptation rights and game adaptation rights in my hands.

As you can see, I have a game development company, and the rights to this piece are very important to us. I also want to change my pen name, I want to change it to 'Trinity', but now the pen name of Sanyi is occupied. I checked this three and sent a novel, and it was only 30,000 words and a eunuch. I want the website to help me get this pen name, I don't know if it's okay? ”

When Pineapple heard it, sure enough, trouble came, but this was also expected, "The matter of the pen name is not a big problem, I can promise you now." I can't make the decision on copyright issues, and I have to consult the editor-in-chief to solve it. Can I make a call here? ”

Jiao Bai made a light gesture, Pineapple took out his mobile phone and dialed the number of the editor-in-chief, and after connecting, he repeated the current situation and Jiao Bai's request.

The editor-in-chief on the other end of the phone, Chongjian, pondered for a long time, and called to discuss with the editor-in-chief, and then gave a positive answer.

When it comes to the revision of the contract, it is not up to Pineapple to be the editor in charge, and the editorial department of the starting point will send people from the copyright department and the legal department to Wanghai tomorrow to negotiate the contract with Jiao Bai in person.

But Pineapple didn't leave there, but brought up another topic, "Mr. Jiao Bai, can the update speed of your "Young Jianghu Xing" be slower, four thousand or five thousand a day. The speed of 10,000 a day is too fast, and our recommendations are very difficult to arrange. ”

Jiao Bai shook his head, "Update slowly, how is it possible, I still want to speed up to 20,000 a day." I'm almost finished writing my second novel, and I'm still waiting to pick it up. ”

Pineapple opened her mouth, there was nothing to say, there were a lot of tentacles in the writer who were more than 20,000 a day, and no matter how much burnt white it was, it was not fresh. There are a lot of manuscripts in storage, and even the next book has been written, and it is completely impossible to want people to reduce the update speed.

Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Pineapple got up and said goodbye. Jiao Bai got up and sent him to the door of the villa. Seeing that Clark was driving a Rolls-Royce out, he hurriedly called out to him.

"Clark, stop for a moment, you drive a pineapple, our villa is a little off, it's not good to take a taxi when you go out."

Pineapple sat on the Rolls-Royce, his head was still dizzy, and the impact of the burnt white was still too great for him today. Tens of millions of Rolls-Royces are true, and what they said earlier should also be true. Then this Jiao Bai is not worth hundreds of millions, comparable to those supreme gods on the website! And writing novels is just a side hustle for others, playing tickets, and people's main business is to open a game company.

Although the starting point has stepped up the signing process with Jiao Bai, in the afternoon, there was still a big event at the starting point - "Youth Jianghu Xing" hit the recommendation list on the homepage of the starting point without signing a contract and without any recommendation, and hit the top position at a terrifying speed. Immediately after the evening, the homepage click list also fell.

The person in charge of the operation of the website approached the editor-in-chief and asked what to do with the situation. The editor-in-chief already knew the progress of signing the contract with Jiao Bai, but he was not in a hurry, and asked with a smile: "Is there a suspicion of swiping the list?" ”

"That's not true, it's all real clicks and recommendations, and most of them are voted by members who have consumption records."

The staff hurriedly shook their heads, when "Young Jianghu Xing" had just appeared on the recommendation list, he had checked the background data. It was the data that was okay that he found it, otherwise, it would be over if the data was deducted directly.

The editor-in-chief spread his hands, "Since the data has not been brushed, what else is there to deal with, the fairness and authority of the list still need to be maintained." ”

The staff opened their mouths and had nothing to say. Yes, since the data is real, you can't deduct a part of it in order not to let people get off the list.
