Chapter 60: Doubling the number of updates
Yuemi is feeling a little confused now.
She knows that Anna's family is rich, after all, ordinary people don't have such a thing as a housekeeper, but she really doesn't know Ji Kaiwei's situation.
But now that you think about it...... I can keep my face unchanged and have an illustration of about 5,000 Chinese yuan with my classmates.,No matter how you think about it, you won't think it's an ordinary person! For many people, that's a month's salary!
And judging from what I just said...... Could this person have something to do with Talent Media?
Forget it, even if Ji Kaiwei has a relationship with Yingcai Media, it is her own business, and it has nothing to do with herself.
Yuemi's mentality is very good, after all, what is the identity of her friend, whether she has money at home or not has nothing to do with her, and she didn't approach her because Ji Kaiwei was rich...... Ah, it seems that Ji Kaiwei took the initiative to approach Yuemi.
In short, that's the case, so Yuemi didn't bother too much about Ji Kaiwei's family background.
…… After all, He Qiuzhi can't also be a rich person who hides deeply, right?
Forget it, don't think about it.
Retracting his somewhat divergent thoughts, Yuemi did not continue to whisper to Ji Kai, after all, it was quite rude to leave his responsibilities aside and ignore them.
"That, I believe that Editor Weng will not do that kind of thing......" First of all, he reassured Weng Ruyu with a word, and Yuemi still entered the topic, "Then how much has the price of the original manuscript become now?" ”
"Moon...... Forget it, it's better to call you Sanchuan when talking about business, Sanchuan shouldn't like those crooked polite words, I'll just say the conclusion," Weng Ruyu stretched out two fingers, "After discussing with the editor-in-chief, I think it would be more appropriate to adjust the price of your manuscript to 2,000 yuan a piece." ”
Generally speaking, the price of a rookie cartoonist's original manuscript is 300-400 Chinese yuan a piece, but for the mountains and rivers on Yuemi's side, this price is obviously low.
Ji Kaiwei opened his mouth to explain to Yuemi, while Lin Lin was happy to look around and didn't know what he was looking at.
To be honest, Yuemi is now relying on the comic "Death Note", and the value of her and Lin Lin's combination of mountains and rivers has surpassed that of most second-tier cartoonists in the eyes of editors, which means that the price of about 1,000 yuan for a second-tier cartoonist is not appropriate.
But after all, "Death Note" has just started serialization, and I don't know what will happen later, so it's not good to give Yuemi a first-line cartoonist treatment directly, so the magazine decided on the current price, which won't be too low but also won't be so high that other cartoonists will be dissatisfied.
Ji Kaiwei explained, Weng Ruyu added, and Yuemi almost figured out the price of the original manuscript.
Probably thinking that there was nothing wrong with the price of the original manuscript quoted by Weng Ruyu, Ji Kaiwei continued to be silent after explaining, and Lin Lin didn't seem to be paying attention to the appearance here, so Yuemi hesitated for a moment and nodded: "I know, I don't think there is a problem." ”
"Don't you need to ask for the opinion of Mr. Miyama?" Weng Ruyu took a mouthful of a ghost floating nearby.
"No, she doesn't seem to care about this ......anyway," Yue Mixin said that the ghost was hiding behind the chair of the guest at another table, looking at the tablet in someone's hand with relish, "And in fact, for me, the price of 2000 Chinese yuan is already very high, and I was quite satisfied with the original painting price of 600 Chinese yuan in the past......
In the past, Yuemi would draw almost 40 original manuscripts in a week, and even if it was calculated according to the original remuneration, there was an income of 24,000 Chinese yuan a week, which was really enough for Yuemi to make her life comfortable, and now after raising the price of the original, the remuneration she can get has become more than three times the original.
As a high school student who has always lived a simple, if not a slightly sleepy life, this is already a huge amount of money that is enough to overwhelm people.
"Then here is the agreement, Sanchuan, you take it back and show it to Mr. Sanshan, and then sign it and send it back after confirming that there is no problem."
took out a few copies of A4-sized paper from his bag, Weng Ruyu handed it to Yuemi, but before Yuemi could get it, Ji Kaiwei took it.
"I'll see."
Dropping a sentence, Ji Kaiwei flipped through the agreement with himself.
Yuemi smiled bitterly and glanced at Weng Ruyu, and patted Ji Kaiwei's shoulder: "Kaiwei, you're making too much of a fuss......
"Yuemi, your guardian hasn't yet, go back to China," Ji Kaiwei raised his head and glanced at Yuemi coldly, "This kind of thing is a contract, you can't be careful, Yuemi, your temperament is too soft, you have to watch." ”
Actually, I still have Lin Lin...... Yuemi thought silently in her heart, but it felt good to be cared for by her friends like this, but Yuemi herself was not very comfortable with Ji Kaiwei's sense of too close distance - at this point, He Qiuzhi made Yuemi feel very comfortable, because she had always maintained a just right sense of distance from Yuemi, and would not make Yuemi, who was afraid of life and refused to be approached by others, uncomfortable.
"That, Editor Weng, in fact, I have something I want to ask you......" Na Ji Kaiwei couldn't help it, Yuemi simply talked to Weng Ruyu, "Excuse me, if I update the four-word "Death Note" every week during the winter vacation, can "Juvenile Weekly" publish it?" ”
Weng Ruyu was stunned: "Can it be...... Yuemi, do you have any plans? ”
Normally, I go to the author's house to urge the manuscript, but this is the first time since Weng Ruyu became an editor that I have heard an author say that the number of updates will be doubled.
"Is it a lack of money?" Aren't the current high school students all thinking about having fun during the holidays, how can Yuemi work so hard, so Weng Ruyu subconsciously thought about whether Yuemi had any difficulties, after all, she also knew something about Yuemi's family, "If you are short of money, you can discuss it with us." ”
This topic made Ji Kaiwei, who was looking at the document, raise his head.
Yuemi hurriedly shook his hand and denied: "No, no, it's just that I want to speed up the progress of the comics......"
“…… Hasten? ”
"Yes."
According to Lin Lin told Yuemi's "Death Note" that there are 108 chapters, according to the rate of updating two words a week, it will take about a year to finish "Death Note".
That's too long for Tsukimi.
"Well, Tsukimi, why do you want to speed up the progress of the manga?"
Weng Ruyu was a little embarrassed, because she probably understood what Yuemi meant, she wanted to shorten the time to finish "Death Note" and let it finish as soon as possible, and for editors, popular works naturally drag on for as long as they want, so as to get the highest economic benefits.
"Why......" Yuemi muttered in a low voice, then glanced at Lin Lin, who was still smirking at other people's tablets in the distance, and then said firmly: "Because I have something that I absolutely want to do!" ”
