Chapter 568: Clarification
Although Tian Shao said that she cooperated, she only knew the story roughly, and whether this comic was exciting and popular in the future depended on Mr. Kuang and them. So the conditions of cooperation, she asked Mr. Kuang to mention it herself.
Mr. Kuang felt that Tian Shao's talent was amazing, and he also wanted to have a good relationship with her, so he offered to add her name to the author of the final version of the comic. As for the remuneration, this depends on the sales of the book. It is equivalent to not getting paid now, but taking a share.
Tian Shao shook his head and said: "Forget the signature, if my dad sees me come up with such a story, he won't let me touch the comics in the future." As for the manuscript fee, according to what you said, it is determined by the sales volume. β
Dad is fictional, but fiancΓ© is real. If Pei Yue knew that she had come up with a gangster story, it was estimated that she would give him a political lesson every day. Forget it, for the sake of clean ears, I still don't want to.
Xiao Kuang secretly said that if you were really so well-behaved, you wouldn't come to Hong Kong City behind your father's back to open a comic company.
Xing Shaohui knew her concerns and had no objection.
Gong Qishui felt that the story was conceived by Tian Shao, and if he didn't sign it, it would be a big loss once the comics were exposed. It's just that she also knows from Xing Shaohui that Anna's father is more conservative: "Anna, you can change your pen name." When there is a need in the future, I will announce to others that this name is also you. β
This proposal is actually very good, but Tian Shao didn't agree, she was very resolute, she didn't want this right of authorship. Of course, it would be miserable not only for Pei Yue to take a political class, but also for Liao Buda to know that she was worried that she had a problem with her thinking.
The two sides renegotiated, Tian Shao did not want the right of authorship, but the remuneration was increased from 5% to 10% of the net profit. Tian Shao is now the boss of a comic company, and if he is just a comic artist, the other party will not agree to such a condition. And this is the difference in identity. Of course, if you have to make a comic hit, you won't get much money otherwise.
After eating, Mr. Kuang left with his son and apprentice with a smile on his face.
Tian Shao lives in an ordinary apartment and does not have a telephone, so he called Zhao Xiaorou halfway: "Do you want to go to class tomorrow?" If I want to go to class, I'll go there in the evening. β
Zhao Xiaorou said with a smile: "I hired a special tutor for English, one-on-one teaching." If you come over tomorrow morning, I'll have a day off tomorrow, and I'll make up for it another day. β
"What about the costume design class?"
Zhao Xiaorou paused, and said with a little weakness: "I took the fashion design class for two days, and I couldn't understand it in a fog, so I didn't go for half a month." β
And the fashion design class is to draw, which is equivalent to learning to draw. She is the least sensitive to painting, and after studying for half a month, she gave up when she couldn't learn.
Tian Shao was a little regretful, but it was a pity that the third sister couldn't come to Hong Kong City, otherwise she would have been sent directly to study in a fashion design school.
"Then I'll be here at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."
Zhao Xiaorou heard the words and said: "Don't wait for tomorrow morning, where do you live, I'll go over now." Bao Huamao went to Australia the day before yesterday, and he couldn't come back until a star moon. β
I was planning to learn English these days. The costume design is not understood, but the English she has worked hard. After learning for a month, she has learned some daily words, and Bao Huamao also praised her for learning things quickly. He also said that when she learned English, she would take him out to play. Zhao Xiaorou sneered in her heart, she learned English for herself, not for him to save face.
Tian Shao reported the address of the apartment and said, "It's been here now, it's too late and it's not safe, come back tomorrow morning!" β
Now there is no limit to purchase, and when the house price falls sharply in two years, I will buy more houses. Some of them are rented to employees at a low price as benefits, and some of them are rented out to earn rent. When the price of housing rises, the value of these buildings alone is not a small amount.
"Okay."
Tian Shao originally wanted to take Ling Xiumei to buy clothes, but Gong Qishui had something to discuss with her. So, she said to Xing Shaohui: "Uncle, I don't have time to accompany Xiumei to buy clothes now, can you accompany her on a trip." β
Xing Shaohui was a little helpless, how could he be a big man who knew what clothes to buy for women! As for Ling Xiumei, she doesn't understand it even more.
Tian Shao reported the store he went to before that specialized in professional suits, and as for what clothes to buy, let the salesperson help choose when the time comes, it is not troublesome at all.
Ling Xiumei was not at ease, and it was not until she sent Tian Shao back to the apartment that she reluctantly followed Xing Shaohui away.
Gong Qishui's work content is mainly to change the plot of the comic from Mandarin to Cantonese. With the addition of his son's six apprentices, the matter was quickly resolved. Because I have a lot of work, I also have time to think about new stories. I read a book a few days ago and suddenly had an inspiration, and I thought of a story about the growth of a knife man.
After listening to him, Tian Shao shook his head secretly in his heart, the plot was single, and the story was a little boring. However, he didn't say it too bluntly, but tactfully pointed out the shortcomings of the story, and then gave some suggestions.
Gong Qishui is not a young man who has just come out of society, so he naturally understands what she means. Although he was a little disappointed, Tian Shao's questions were very pertinent. He said, "Miss Xing, if you still have a good idea or story, you can also leave it to us to do." β
Tian Shao explained: "It is also because of Mr. Kuang that I can become famous in Hong Kong City. Although I suffered a little, no one can accuse me of being ungrateful when I talk about it in the future. Don't worry, if you have a good idea in the future, I will definitely give it to you. β
With Tian Shao's words, Gong Qishui was also relieved.
Early the next morning, Mr. Kuang's comic weekly magazine clarified the matter of the contract with K. And next, they will work with K to create a new comic.
As a result, on the morning of the same day, the 3,000 comic strips and newspapers printed by Xinbao were sold out. Because it takes time to reprint, the previous backlog of more than 10,000 newspapers and periodicals has also been sold.
When Xing Shaohui heard this result, he suddenly understood why Tian Shao wanted to cooperate with Mr. Kuang. Mr. Kwong came forward to clarify and also said that the two companies would continue to cooperate, so that the original readers would not be affected by the rumors and would buy their new newspaper. On the contrary, those hardcore "Bruce Lee" will definitely boycott the new newspaper, and when the time comes, they will not only lose many readers, but also fall out with Mr. Kwong.
Xing Shaohui was glad that he didn't act rashly, but waited for Tian Shao to come over to solve it. At this time, the phone rang, and it was said that he wanted newspapers and periodicals: "It has been reprinted, and 10,000 copies have been printed." You can rest assured, it will be sent to you as soon as it is printed. β
At noon that day, Xing Shaohui ordered a roast goose lunch box for everyone, and the people in the company were so happy that they got the box lunch.
At lunch, Gong Qishui said to him: "General manager, shouldn't we recruit editors?" β
So far, Xing Shaohui has only recruited a front desk, and neither artists nor editors have been recruited. Gong Qishui and his son and apprentice are both editors and artists, well, they are still very idle when they haven't received submissions before. But now that the newspapers and periodicals are selling well, and the reputation will be more and more submissions, then they will not be able to keep busy.
Xing Shaohui said very boldly this time: "Recruitment, wait for two days to publish the newspaper to recruit editors and artists." β
