Chapter 16: The Wrongdoer

As soon as Meng Wen and the others returned to school from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, they received a call from Ouyang Die. asked Meng Wen to come to the office quickly, and he didn't say anything. Meng Wen thought that there was something important, so he hurriedly separated from Zhang Dahai and Lu Yan and went straight to Ouyang Die's office.

Meng Wen came to Ouyang Die's office, and after entering, he found that there was still a person inside, looking like he was in his forties, with eyes and a big belly, and he looked like a leader.

Ouyang Die saw Meng Wen come in, and hurriedly said to Meng Wen: "Meng Wen, come here, let me introduce to you, this is President Wang of our school publishing house." ”

When Meng Wen heard this, he hurriedly shouted respectfully to President Wang: "Hello, President Wang." "But there is a little strange in my heart, isn't Ouyang Die looking for something to do with himself? It seems that this President Wang seems to be waiting for himself.

"Meng Wen, hello, what a hero out of a teenager, I only knew how to study in school at your age, how can it be like you, I started publishing books at a young age" President Wang said to Meng Wen with a smile.

"President Wang, you have won the award, I have nothing to write nonsense," Meng Wen said modestly.

"If you write blindly, how can you let other fiction writers live," President Wang asked with a smile.

Meng Wen smiled embarrassedly. There was no talk-in.

At this time, Ouyang Die said to Meng Wen: "That's the case, I called you over today, mainly because President Wang wants to meet you and talk to you." ”

As soon as Meng Wen heard Ouyang Die say this, he couldn't help but turn his gaze to President Wang.

President Wang smiled and said, "Since Mr. Ouyang has said it here, it just so happens that Mr. Ouyang is also your teacher and agent, so I have something to say." I came here today mainly for two things, one for business and one for private."

Speaking of this, President Wang paused, as if organizing the language, "As for business, you also know that our school has its own publishing house, which is mainly for students. If you want to publish a novel or something, you can contact our school publishing house directly. Although the remuneration is not necessarily as high as that of an external publishing house, it is my alma mater after all. The school will never treat you badly. And if the novel sells well, you can also apply for some honors such as school scholarships and school three good students at the end of the year. These honors will accompany you for a lifetime. ”

Meng Wen could only listen and nodded.

President Wang then said with a smile, "I heard that there are two or three copies of the "Xiao Li Flying Knife" you wrote, and when the time comes, you can come to me directly, and I can directly call the shots and give you a 4% commission, you must know that ordinary students only have a 3% commission, and those teachers and professors are only paid 5%." And I can guarantee you that at the end of the year, I will definitely give you a good student in the school. How?"

This time, Meng Wen didn't nod again, and replied: "Okay, I'll think about it." Meng Wen thought to himself, no wonder the teachers are all publishing books outside now, such a low commission is a fool. Judging from the sales of Meng Wen's first part, the second part is less than 8 points, and Meng Wen doesn't do it. Now President Wang actually wants to send himself away at four points. still has a good expression for you, really coax you to be a child?

President Wang heard that Meng Wen did not directly agree, and his face was a little unpleasant. I spent a long time talking, I really don't know what to do. But I thought that there was something to ask for Meng Wen below, and I didn't express it too much.

He continued: "As for personal matters, I have a friend who has opened a studio. It's a special adaptation of the screenplay, and I recommended your novel to him two days ago, and he felt okay. It's like turning your script into a TV series. What do you think?"

"It's okay to adapt, but it's so expensive?" Meng Wen hesitated for a moment and said, anyway, there are countless novels in his mind, if he bids reasonably, let him forget it.

"People will help you adapt, and when the time comes, making it into a TV series is equivalent to promoting it for you. Not only can you sell the book, but your fame can also soar, which is not enough" Director Wang saw that Meng Wen was a little unhappy, and added another fire: "Of course, if you can sell the film and television adaptation rights of this book to my friend, my friend can pay you a fee of 18,000." I've brought the contract, and if you agree to it, we can sign it now. ”

Hearing this, Meng Wen completely understood, this Director Wang had been making trouble for a long time and was slaughtering himself as a wronged boss.

"Meng Wen, didn't your father own a bookstore? If you don't know much about this, you can ask your father to make a decision. Ouyang Die was afraid that Meng Wen would really agree, and it was not good to oppose it directly in front of Director Wang, so he reminded with a wit.

Meng Wen hurriedly took the opportunity to go downhill and said: "Director Wang, what Mr. Ouyang said is right, although I wrote the book, I don't know anything other than writing the book, mainly arranged by my father." As for the two things you mentioned, I'll discuss it with my father when I go home, and if my father agrees, I'll do my best to get back to you, do you think it's okay?"

"My friend is also a senior adaptor in the industry, and he also went out of our school, so I plan to help you adapt it for the sake of my face and alumni relationship. You don't know how many fiction writers beg my friends to adapt their novels in order to become famous, and many of them put money into them. It's good that you're still on it, I can tell you that it's impossible for you to ask someone to adapt it today. Anyway, you can figure it out for yourself......"

"I really can't make the decision myself," Meng Wen said pretending to be embarrassed.

"Okay, think about it yourself, I'll go first" Director Wang was a little angry, and glared at Ouyang Die fiercely before leaving.

When Director Wang was there, Meng Wen didn't dare to relax too much, and sat honestly there. Director Wang walked Meng Wen to completely relax, find a comfortable position, and do it on the sofa. Let Ouyang Die ask: "Teacher Ouyang, what is the situation?"

Ouyang Die was afraid that Meng Wen would misunderstand, so he hurriedly said to Meng Wen: "Meng Wen, don't get me wrong, I didn't know he would be like this, at first he just told me that he wanted to meet you and talk to you." I really can't push it over, so I have to call you here, which Cheng misses him......"

"I said, I'm still wondering at first, why did Mr. Ouyang dig up the foot of the wall of his grandfather's house?" Meng Wen couldn't help laughing.

"Don't laugh, I'll tell you something serious, and blame me for not reminding you before, the copyright of your novel must be protected, don't sell it to others casually, be careful that others will trap you" Ouyang Die said sternly.

"Yes, I know. Originally, I planned to wait for my remuneration next month, register a company first, and then hand over some copyright-related things to this company to operate. ”

"I can see that you kid is pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. Seeing that you have been nodding your head there just now, I am afraid that you will really agree with President Wang's proposal, I would have known that this would not remind you, this time President Wang still doesn't hate me to death?" Ouyang Die said depressedly.

"It's not that I haven't registered yet, I went to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau this morning and consulted about it, how do I know that the establishment of a film and television company requires a registered capital of 3 million. Now I don't have that much money, so I can only set up my own studio first, so that the copyright can be completely hung in my name. When I have money in the future, I will make some film and television adaptations of the novel in a registered company. ”

"It's quite big at a young age, but setting up a film and television company is not as simple as you think. It's not just about having a registered capital, you also have to have a film and television shooting license, and you have to have a good relationship with some TV stations."

"Aren't I learning? I see that Mr. Ouyang, you know a lot about this."

"That's it, you don't want to see who I am?" Ouyang Die said with some smugness.

"Otherwise, when Mr. Ouyang comes to work in the company, how about I give you the position of general manager?" Meng Wen said jokingly.

"Seriously, I'm okay, as your agent and teacher, I should help you. In the future, I will reluctantly help you manage the company's affairs, and you can just write a book with peace of mind," Ouyang Die said seriously.

"Ah......" Meng Wen was a little dumbfounded, God knew that Meng Wen was really just talking casually, Ouyang Die really took it seriously. Hurriedly said: "Teacher Ouyang, you see that you still have to go to class, you still have to be my agent, and you have to take care of the company, can you be busy?"

"You don't have to worry about that, you've only written a book now, how much can you do. If you write too much in the future, the company will be busy, and I will leave my job and concentrate on being my general manager......" Ouyang Die said, and couldn't help but fantasize about sitting in the general manager's office and giving orders.

Meng Wen didn't say a word for a long time, seeing Ouyang Die's longing appearance, she really wanted to splash her with a bowl of cold water, and she had to go crazy on the spot.

It seems that I have to think of a different way, but I'm not in a hurry, take my time, anyway, it's still a long time before the company is registered......
