Because of the impact of this incident, Lu Yanhe forgot to call Song Linxin, and he was stunned for a while, and then he was awakened by Chen Siqi's call.

"Are you out of the house?"

"Not yet." Lu Yanhe said.

"Don't be late, today we made an appointment with Ye Maiwang and Jiangyin Publishing House to sit together to communicate about "Jump Up". Chen Siqi said.

"Oh, yes, okay, I'll be out right away."

Lu Yanhe hurriedly packed his schoolbag, put it on his back, and ran out.

The sun was shining directly on him, and he was also thinking about when his complexion would be able to tan a little bit and meet Chen Lingling's standard.

The place where we met today was neither in the company building of Yemaiwang nor in the building of Jiangyin Publishing House, but in a compromise, I found a café in the middle, booked a large table, and had a relatively independent area where I could discuss, and I didn't even find a serious conference room.

Chen Siqi was deliberate, saying: "On the one hand, remind them that we are all poor students, don't treat us as serious business partners, so as not to have to fight with us when we get to, what the two of us lack the most is this kind of experience, the more we talk, the more ignorant we seem, it is better to be willful, and directly say that we want fish and bear paws, and let them accommodate us." ”

"On the other hand, there is only one place to choose, and today's communication is not very good in any company." What Chen Siqi didn't say was that what he was going to discuss today was not to let one of them have the psychology of the master and the content of home advantage.

Lu Yanhe listened to Chen Siqi's reasoning, his head was a little confused, he didn't expect Chen Siqi to think so much. He nodded and said, "You've thought so well. ”

The corners of Chen Siqi's mouth curled and said, "General." ”

-

There was more than one person on both sides, Yemaiwang was Liu Qiao who came directly with Xin Zixing, and on the side of Jiangyin Publishing House, Xu Xiaoyin invited Liu Cheng to come over.

Lu Yanhe and the others arrived fifteen minutes early, but the two sides stubbornly delayed until the last minute of the agreed time.

“……”

This is not Xu Xiaoyin and Xin Zixing's usual style, it seems that the two around them mean it, and they all want to appear in the finale? Crush each other?

This alone made Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi have a hunch that this afternoon's negotiations would not seem to be so smooth.

The two sides looked at each other and exchanged greetings with smiles on their faces.

As soon as he sat down, Chen Siqi opened his mouth and said, "Thank you for supporting me and Lu Yanhe's whim, let us really start making a book this summer, originally we all thought that this was just an idea, and it would never come true." ”

Lu Yanhe was already somewhat familiar with and understood her, looking at her contrived tone and exaggerated body language, Lu Yanhe couldn't help but ask her with his eyes, what kind of drama are you singing?

But Lu Yanhe's trust in Chen Siqi is that even if he doesn't understand what she is doing, he will definitely support it and not dismantle it.

Chen Siqi glanced at Liu Qiao and Xin Zixing on the other side of Yemaiwang with gratitude, and also glanced at Liu Cheng and Xu Xiaoyin on the side of Jiangyin Publishing House with gratitude, and said: "I also know that it costs a lot of money to make a book, and we are not sure if this book can make money, in fact, at the beginning, we just wanted to fulfill a dream in high school, so I discussed with Lu Yanhe about the production cost of this book, otherwise it would be better for the two of us to bear it ourselves, so it is not good to ask you to take this risk. We are all just high school graduates, and looking at the public opinion on our book on the Internet, it seems that we have indeed taken a big advantage. ”

Lu Yanhe was even more shocked in his heart, of course, his face was still as usual, as if he had already communicated this with Chen Siqi.

"Siqi, didn't you say before that we would be in charge of the production funds?" Xin Zixing immediately looked at Lu Yanhe.

Chen Siqi said in surprise: "But at that time, because there was no plan to do physical publishing, Yemai.com had an exclusive nature, and it also had a lot of drainage effect on you. ”

Xin Zixing was stunned for a moment, and suddenly reacted, she was in a hurry, Chen Siqi, a little girl, after dealing with her a few times before, she was a very clever and active person, how could she suddenly talk to you with such an innocent tone and eyes, and deliberately trick you.

She smiled slightly and said, "We will bear all the funds, it's not that we don't want to, but I think that since Jiangyin Publishing House wants to cooperate with you, it shouldn't agree to pay for our family, right?" ”

Xu Xiaoyin: "Of course, although physical publishing is indeed incomparable to your e-reading, paper, printing, and transportation are all costs, but we will directly prepay royalties to Siqi and Xiaolu, it is not easy for two young people to make books, of course we will support it." ”

"I wonder how much royalties you're going to pay in advance?" Xin Zixing asked, "Before, we planned to directly provide 100,000 yuan of production funds, you do physical publishing, you know best, for an e-book that does not need to be published as a physical book, this should be a high production cost, right?" ”

Xu Xiaoyin nodded, "Indeed, however, with the lineup of authors that I know Xiao Lu has invited now, putting the names of these authors together may not make everyone willing to buy a book for dozens of dollars, and it should attract many people to go to your Yemai network to see free e-books, right?" ”

"The financial rewards generated by 10,000 people reading a free e-magazine and 10,000 people spending dozens of dollars to buy a book are very different." Xin Zixing's eyes widened and spread her hands, "Actually, making such a book, getting financial returns has never been our first goal, Lu Yanhe is our partner of Yemai.com, and we will create a series of documentaries about "City Travel", so if he wants to realize such a dream, we want to help." ”

"Then we really want to go together, Xiao Lu helped our publishing house's "Nineteen Years of Crime" and "Star Orbit" sell nearly 300,000 copies, and also sold the film and television rights of the book "Nineteen Years of Crime", he is a child who loves books, and wants to edit a book, of course we hope to get the opportunity of physical publication into our hands." Xu Xiaoyin said not to be outdone.

Seeing that these two women were still competing against each other, Lu Yanhe began to feel that his head was big, Chen Siqi suddenly clasped his hands in front of his chest and sighed, "Okay, it turns out that the two sisters are so willing to cooperate with us for the sake of Lu Yanhe, then we are still amorous, thinking that we can make a good book, and we can pull such a creative lineup, so you took the initiative to cooperate?" ”

Chen Siqi is pretending to be confused.

Nonsense, Yemai.com and Jiangyin Publishing House are willing to make this book, and the first factor is, of course, to land on Yanhe.

But as soon as she said this, it seemed that the intention of the two sides to cooperate became utilitarian and less pure.

"Siqi, you know, I didn't mean that." Xin Zixing didn't understand what Chen Siqi's attitude was today.

Why does Chen Siqi make people feel a little nonsense today?

Usually she is not such a character.

Chen Siqi: "Then can we put aside Lu Yanhe's influence on this book for the time being, and simply talk about the content of this book?" With the current lineup of writers for this book, as long as the quality of the manuscript given by everyone in the end is not bad, the book should be able to sell, but it depends on how much it sells, right? ”

Lu Yanhe heard it, and she was trying to dominate the topic.

Both sides were noncommittal.

Chen Siqi said: "In fact, the production budget of a book is really not much, the last thing Lu Yanhe and I want to see is that the two partners who we think are very suitable are arguing over who has more production funds and who has less production, and I don't want everyone to fight for some interests, after all, it is just a book, it is no matter how big the interests are, it is so big, the production funds of 100,000 yuan, not to mention Lu Yanhe, it is nothing to me, I was not joking just now, If you're going to argue over and over again over these things, I'd rather you both don't have to pay for it, and I'll pay for it myself. ”

As soon as Chen Siqi finished speaking, there was silence on the table.

-

At noon, Chen Siqi booked a restaurant and invited everyone to eat together.

Chen Siqi was relatively familiar with Xin Zixing, so he took Xin Zixing's car and followed her and Liu Qiao to the hotel.

Lu Yanhe was with Xu Xiaoyin.

After getting into the car, Chen Siqi suddenly fell silent, and kept silently looking out of the car window, contrary to the appearance of being in the café just now.

Xin Zixing more or less reacted, why did Chen Siqi behave like that just now.

She turned her head to look at Chen Siqi who looked like this, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and then glanced at Liu Qiao, who was sitting behind.

Liu Qiao was looking down at his phone.

She said, "Siqi, haven't you and Lu Yanhe thought about being together? ”

"Huh?" Chen Siqi came back to his senses abruptly and looked at Xin Zixing in shock.

"You're messing around so much today, right?" Xin Zixing said with a bit of ridicule: "I don't want us to quarrel and point the finger at Lu Yanhe, so when we are fighting, we take the initiative to jump out as a target, and what we say is to remove Lu Yanhe from the center of the discussion." ”

Chen Siqi's face turned red, and he immediately turned his head to look out the window, "What are you talking about, I don't understand." ”

Xin Zixing: "You are really a freshly graduated student, we are fighting-for-tat in order to share the cake, Lu Yanhe is too late for us to coax and woo, how can we target Lu Yanhe." ”

Chen Siqi still said: "I didn't think so. ”

At this time, Liu Qiao, who was sitting in the back, was still looking at the mobile phone in his hand, but he spoke, "People are worried that the two of you will use your past friendship to compete for Lu Yanhe's support, she doesn't want Lu Yanhe to be emotionally kidnapped by the two of you Okay, who is worried that you will use Lu Yanhe as a spearhead." ”

Chen Siqi was like a thorn growing on a chair and being pricked in the buttocks, and he couldn't help but move.

"Huh? How can we still have a friendship with Lu Yanhe, and go to emotionally kidnap Lu Yanhe? Xin Zixing questioned Liu Qiao's statement with tears and laughter.

Chen Siqi thought to himself silently, that's because you don't know how stupid and kind Lu Yanhe is.

The corners of Liu Qiao's mouth hooked, "If you care, you will be chaotic." ”

Chen Siqi denied weakly: "I'm not, don't talk nonsense." ”

-

In another car, a conversation like this took place.

"That little girl named Chen Siqi is Xiao Lu's classmate, right?" Liu Cheng asked.

Xu Xiaoyin drove and nodded, "Yes." ”

Liu Cheng smiled softly, and said lightly: "Xiao Lu, you have to cherish others." ”

Lu Yanhe immediately blushed.

"Huh? What? ”

"Pretend, you'll be just." Xu Xiaoyin complained about Liu Cheng's words, and then said something similar to Liu Qiao.

Lu Yanhe reacted in shock, was Chen Siqi's different side just now actually such a purpose?

He felt a little frustrated in the morning, feeling that he had no place to speak.

finally took a sentence or two, and wanted to help Chen Siqi play a round, but he was soon interrupted by Chen Siqi.

It turns out that Chen Siqi has this purpose?

Lu Yanhe was dumbfounded, falling into shock and stunned, and an indescribably complicated feeling welled up in his heart.

Xu Xiaoyin said in a tone of nostalgia and envy: "Think about it, this summer after graduating from high school, making a book together, this kind of thing is really a romance that cannot be replicated." ”

Liu Cheng laughed too.

"Why don't you go back in time?"

"That's okay, Editor-in-Chief Liu, look at the appearance of Xiao Lu and Siqi, and look at me at my eighteen years old...... Forget it, you can't see it, it's better not to look at it, now I'm a beautiful urban girl, I just graduated at the age of eighteen, and I'm a dirt girl who thinks deep down that she is facing the sea, but actually facing the sandstorm. Xu Xiaoyin said, "I don't want to travel back to that time." ”

Liu Cheng: "That's what you still think now, when you reach my age, you will be able to understand what it means to want to travel back to your youth, Xiao Lu probably doesn't understand." ”

"Huh?" Lu Yanhe came back to his senses from his distraction and didn't listen to all their conversations.

"At your current age, you can't understand how we want to travel back to eighteen." Xu Xiaoyin said happily.

Lu Yanhe opened his mouth and smiled distractedly.

Through...... Is it?

Lu Yanhe looked at the open sunshine and clear sky in front of him, raised the corners of his mouth, and said: "Yes, although my homeroom teacher always said when I was in school that we are always at the best age, but we don't know how to cherish it, in fact, I also think it's very good now, I actually cherish it." ”

He knew that Liu Cheng and Xu Xiaoyin must have thought that they understood what he meant, but he knew that only he knew what he was talking about.

-

In the end, regarding "Jump Up", the preliminary intention reached by the three parties is:

1. The content production funds of Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi's team are 70,000 yuan by Yemai.com, and 30,000 yuan by Jiangyin Publishing House, they are only responsible for the content of the manuscript.

2. "Jumping Up" will open the pre-sale of physical book e-commerce at the same time as the Yemai online shelf, and it will be officially sold in e-commerce and bookstores three days later, providing free reading for three days before the shelves, and turning to paid reading three days later, with a price of one-third of the price of the physical book, and the revenue share will be shared by Yemai.com and then go back to communicate with Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi.

3. The e-book listing page of Yemai.com provides the URL of the physical book purchase link, and Jiangyin Publishing House also indicates in the promotional materials that the e-reading is exclusively provided by Yemai.com.

……

The two partners did take care of Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi, the two young people, or rather, they were willing to take care of these two people, did not let them suffer, and gave them very good conditions.

At lunchtime, to Lu Yanhe's expectations, Chen Siqi generously picked up the wine glass and toasted a small glass of rice wine to several people: "I don't drink much alcohol, I can only drink so little, I apologize to the teachers, the performance just now is really rude, although I know that I am riding the east wind of Lu Yanhe, but to be able to realize such a dream, without your help, it is absolutely impossible to achieve, and I would like to express my gratitude to all teachers." ”

Several other people hurriedly brought cups.

There are only three people in the cup of rice wine, Liu Qiao, Liu Cheng and Lu Yanhe.

Xu Xiaoyin and Xin Zixing didn't have any juice to drink, because they had to drive.

At this moment, Chen Siqi finally returned to her usual down-to-earth and generous appearance.

She has a small personality and temper in front of Lu Yanhe, and she has no scruples about her sharp spikes in front of Liu Wei'an, but outside, she has always been such a girl who has received a good education since she was a child.

Lu Yanhe felt that he was really not as online as Chen Siqi in this regard.

It's really the difference between being taught and not being taught since childhood.

Be vigilant, Lu Yanhe. (End of chapter)
