Chapter 374: We're Rich
- Xu Changqing, good news!
After getting Lu Anzhi's affirmation, he hurriedly went to find Xu Changqing, opened Xu Changqing's Qiuqiu chat box, and sent such a message.
However, Xu Changqing's Qiuqiu avatar was gray and did not respond. Only then did he react, Xu Changqing usually doesn't use Qiuqiu, and that guy's Qiuqiu was still temporarily registered at her request to facilitate communication.
Now Xu Changqing is probably busy with other things, so he didn't log in to Qiuqiu.
"I had to call......"
He sighed bitterly. For some reason, she just doesn't like to call people. Usually, even if she typed a few more words in Qiuqiu, she didn't want to simply dial a number on her mobile phone.
I found Xu Changqing's phone number from my mobile phone, dialed it hard, and after a few rings of "beep", I heard Xu Changqing's voice: "Hello editor." ”
In addition, there was a sizzling sound full of fire in the earpiece, and I immediately understood and asked, "Are you cooking dinner?" ”
Xu Changqing said: "Yes, there are new books in the bookstore today, I have been busy for a while, and I came back a little late." ”
He asked bitterly, "What about your daughter?" She knew that Xu Changqing had a daughter.
Xu Changqing said: "I took her to the bookstore, and now I'm back, and I'm a little hungry." ”
"Oh."
He replied bitterly and said, "Then let's hurry up and cook first." I'll look for you at the bookstore tomorrow morning, and I'll just get you the contract to sign. ”
"Ah...... Teacher Lu passed there?! ”
Xu Changqing was pleasantly surprised.
Said bitterly: "Yes." Leave this alone for now, let's cook and rest. We'll meet tomorrow morning. ”
"Good! Good! ”
Xu Changqing replied again and again.
After hanging up the phone, I sighed bitterly. She didn't know about Xu Changqing's specific situation before, but she only knew about it last time she went to Xu Changqing. At that time, she understood why Lu Anzhi specifically designated Xu Changqing to write this "Breaking the Sky" - that is probably the empathy of one father for another father.
She thought to herself.
But regardless, the ending is perfect. Xu Changqing's ability is indeed quite good, with the support of a specific outline, the strength of this guy is a little unexpected. And the speed at which the code word that was written, that is, what Boss B said, was beyond imagination. I felt that the speed of Boss B's big code words was fast enough, but I didn't expect Xu Changqing to be faster.
In this case, this father should be able to make a lot of money......
He was already settling accounts for Xu Changqing in his mind, closing his laptop while settling accounts, lying on the bed, and muttering to himself: "One thousand is fifty yuan, two thousand is one hundred yuan, and ten thousand yuan is five hundred yuan...... This guy can write 40,000 words a day, isn't that 2,000 yuan?! Two thousand a day, twenty thousand in ten days, and sixty thousand in thirty days in a month. Hiss...... Should I also ask Boss B for an outline? That's a lot more money than being an editor! ”
But after thinking about it carefully, I gave up on this idea. She knows her background very well, and it is feasible to give advice to others from the perspective of an editor, and let her write it herself, but she can't hold back six words for seven days. And speaking of which, she, as an editor, actually earns a lot. Now she no longer lives on the basic salary, and the bonus she earns every year from Boss B's books is enough for her to enter the high-paid class. Not to mention that she has other authors in her hands, some of whom are good, and they can also provide her with a lot of income.
Now if this Xu Changqing can also get up......
"Huh...... Hehe......"
Lying on the bed with a smirk, the corners of his mouth were about to burst into saliva.
……
In the small apartment rented by Xu Changqing, Xu Changqing cooked the meal and brought it to the table. The small apartment, which is only about 30 square meters, is so crowded that after removing the area occupied by the bathroom and kitchen, only a bed, a table, and a few chairs are left.
Xu Changqing waits for his daughter Xu Ranran to fall asleep every day, and then sits on the table, and the specific sound from the computer always makes him worry about whether it will wake up Ranran.
Therefore, he was desperate to improve his living environment. This is not only because of the possibility of noisy Ran Ran in this small space now, but more importantly, Ran Ran's gender. Now that Ran Ran is still young, he can still sleep in the same bed with his daughter. But the little girl will always grow up, and he is a father, and it is a little inappropriate to make do with his daughter like this.
"Ranran, stop playing, come and eat."
Xu Changqing shouted.
Ran Ran was sitting on the bed reading the picture book that her slender sister gave her. She didn't dare to ask for the picture book at the beginning, and her father didn't let her accept it, but Sister Xian Xian had to give it to her, and under the persuasion of Sister Xian Xian's parents, Dad thanked and agreed.
The little one seems to be able to appreciate his father's hard work, and she is always very well-behaved when his father is busy. She was tired of playing with the few toys in the house, but she never asked her father to buy her new ones to play with. Now that she has a new picture book in her hand, although she has turned it over, in her eyes, it is still very fresh, and she can't put it down.
"Uh-huh."
Hearing her father call her, Ran Ran hurriedly lifted the pillow and laid the picture book flat under the pillow, as if she was hiding some precious treasure. When she had set it up, she flattened the pillow and patted it lightly before she climbed out of bed and sat down at the table.
She glanced at Xu Changqing and suddenly called out, "Dad." ”
"What's wrong?"
Xu Changqing asked.
Ran Ran blinked, and only Xu Changqing's figure was reflected in his innocent big eyes: "Dad, why are you so happy, what are you laughing at?" ”
The smile on Xu Changqing's face couldn't hold back any longer: "Ranran, Dad can buy you toys, buy a lot of toys." ”
Ran Ran shook his head and said sensibly: "Ran Ran doesn't want so many toys, toys cost too much." But she hesitated for a while, and asked cautiously, "Ran Ran only needs to ...... Are two toys good? ”
Xu Changqing smiled and cried: "It's okay Ranran, Dad will buy you a lot of toys, we have money." ”
……
The next morning, after Xu Changqing sent Ran Ran to the kindergarten, he hurried to Baicao Garden.
Push up the roller shutter, unlock the door, clean up, and turn on the computer behind the counter. After all these things were done, Xu Changqing went to the back of the counter and waited a little anxiously.
He always couldn't help but wonder if last night's call could be his delusion, and then took out his phone and looked through last night's call history to confirm. Every time he confirmed that the call log, which was only a little over a minute old, he could rest assured.
But he felt that this was not a problem, and it was useless for him to be anxious all the time, so he simply took out his laptop from the shabby backpack he was carrying, and after opening it, he waited while coding words.
After writing for a while, the bitterness finally came to the door. Bitterly not tall, after walking in, he heard the sound of "crackling" keyboard tapping, and he had to stand on tiptoe and poke his neck to look hard behind the counter to see what Xu Changqing was doing.
"Why do you code words early in the morning?"
He said bitterly.
Xu Changqing hurriedly stopped and got up, of course he understood what the "code word" meant, and felt that this statement was quite vivid. He smiled and said, "Hurry up and write something while you're free." ”
said bitterly: "No wonder you can write more than 40,000 a day." ”
Xu Changqing smiled a little embarrassedly.
While taking the contract from the bag he was carrying, he said to Xu Changqing: "Okay, I won't say much more, let's hurry up and get down to business." You look at the contract, and let me ask, do you agree with 50 words? ”
Xu Changqing nodded again and again and said, "Agreed!" Agree! He had calculated this price in his mind after listening to the bitter talk before, and he also knew that the serialization method of the new micro Chinese network doomed the work to not need to be refined and revised over and over again like the previous electronic magazine. So with the speed of my own experiment yesterday, this price can really make a lot of money.
If this is the case, he can accept even a little less per thousand words.
Of course, he will not relax because he does not need the strict control of the editor, he knows that this is an opportunity given to him by others, and he can only keep this opportunity in his own hands if he treats it with extreme care.
Therefore, although he is fast in codewriting, he takes his articles very seriously. After each chapter, I will read it carefully and carefully to make sure that the sense of language and sentences are smooth, and there are no typos, and try to ensure that every sentence and paragraph has something to say.
It's his attitude, and there's his desire in it.
After hearing Xu Changqing's words, he also nodded, put the contract in front of Xu Changqing, and said: "Look at the contract, it contains the rights and obligations of you, Teacher Lu and our maple tree, you have to ensure that the daily increase is at least 4,000 words - this is the number of words we set for the new micro Chinese network after discussion, only if the number of words is more than enough every day, you can get the full attendance reward of the new micro Chinese network - the money is not much, six hundred yuan, but you should be able to take it." In addition, you must ensure that this book is written, and then you and Mr. Lu co-sign it. ”
Speaking of this, Xu Changqing suddenly interjected: "I don't need to sign it." After all, all the ideas in this book were put forward by Mr. Lu. When I signed it, I was actually a little ashamed. ”
He shook his head bitterly and said, "This is set by Teacher Lu, and you must sign it." This can also avoid hassles and disputes later on. Don't bother with it. ”
Xu Changqing had no choice but to agree silently. After reading the contract hastily, he signed his name on it.
Bitterly retracted the contract and said, "Okay, that's it." The new micro Chinese network will be initially launched for testing on the first of next month, and this "Breaking the Sky" will also be put on at that time. You start writing as much as you can, as much as you can. Is that okay? ”
Xu Changqing nodded again and again and said, "Okay!" ”
Kuang said: "Then come on." I think this book may make more than these guaranteed money. This is the outline provided by Mr. Lu. She smiled and said, "At the beginning, the website traffic was low, maybe you have to rely on the guarantee for a period of time, and then the website traffic will rise, and you may be able to convert it, and you will make more money." Come on! ”
"Thank you!"
Xu Changqing thanked him. It's just that the division is unthinkable for him.
After I had packed up the contract, I said goodbye and left.
Xu Changqing waited hard to walk away, took a deep breath, and continued to code.
Now that the contract has been read and signed, his heart has completely fallen down. It was as if he saw a better tomorrow beckoning to him behind the words that had been typed out of the keyboard.
……
On the way back to the maple tree, he sent the contract to Lu Anzhi. After sending, keep the receipt of the delivery cost.
It's all money, although it doesn't cost a few dollars to mail it at a time, but it adds up to a lot, and you can always reimburse a lot. She is a hard-working and thrifty girl, and she can't waste a penny.
After collecting the receipt, he took his mobile phone and sent a message to Lu Anzhi, saying: Boss B, the contract has been mailed to you, remember to send it back after you sign it. This side under the maple tree also needs to be stamped.
After sending this Qiuqiu message, it suddenly dawned on her - the reason why she doesn't like to call others now, she only likes Qiuqiu to chat, it seems that she was forced out by Boss B.
When she called Boss B, she couldn't get through to nine out of ten, and she really couldn't help it, so she started to fight Qiuqiu. Unexpectedly, time passed slowly, and Qiuqiu chatting had become her habit. Calling on her mobile phone has become a major obstacle to her social interactions.
"Boss B, you hurt people a lot!"
Gritted his teeth and said.
Walked back quickly, entered the office under the maple tree, sat down at his desk, turned on the computer to log in to Qiuqiu and the mailbox, and was about to click on a new manuscript from the mailbox to read, but found that Qiuqiu's avatar was jumping.
Boss B replied so quickly today?!
I felt a little strange. She opened Qiuqiu's chat box to look, but saw a message from Boss B.
Teacher B: Why don't you stamp your magazine's seal before mailing it? I've got to send all three contracts back after I've signed it, and you'll have to send it back again.
He stuck out his tongue bitterly and replied on Qiuqiu: I forgot.
Teacher B: You really don't care about money.
Kuku: It's okay, I can be reimbursed anyway.
Teacher Big B: You're really a moth in your company.
Hard:......
This B boss is really annoying to talk about!
I didn't want to talk to Boss B anymore, so she decided that this time she would also learn Boss B's tricks and dry Boss B, and immediately sent a message: Boss B, are you okay? I'll just read the manuscript if it's okay.
She actually wanted to learn from Boss B to say something like "Something happens early and nothing to retreat from", but she didn't have the courage to send it out to Boss B. In the face of this kind of pen play, she really doesn't know how she will be complained.
Then at this moment, she suddenly received a document from Boss B to her.
"Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone?!"
She realized in an instant what it was.
Boss B has finished writing another one?!
A strong sense of happiness instantly hit my heart, and I hurriedly received the document and replied: Long live Boss B!
