Chapter 27 Aunt Wang who was dismissed
"What the hell is going on? So many missed calls."
I called Aunt Wang, and then answered the phone very quickly after two sounds.
"Aunt Wang, have you been dismissed by Deyun Publishing House?"
"Xiaochen, the people from Deyun Publishing House came to you to sign the contract today, have you signed the contract?" Wang Ni did not answer, but asked anxiously.
"No, what kind of acting editor Gou Xi came to me. He said, "Auntie, you have been dismissed, and he is temporarily acting for all the editor-in-chief's affairs. Deyun Publishing House wants to publish "Shelmes's Detective Collection", but the price given is 100,000 words. This price is too much, so I refused."
"Well, that's good." Wang Ni on the other end of the phone seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Auntie, what's going on? Why did Auntie suddenly get dismissed?"
"I can't explain it clearly on the phone..."
"Since I can't explain it clearly on the phone, I'll come to my aunt's house." There was no voice on the other end of the phone, and Wang Ni didn't say whether she agreed or not, but Su Shichen knew, which meant that Wang Ni agreed.
He hung up the phone and drove to Wang Ni's house, and also called the editor-in-chief of Longyun Novel Network in the car.
"Hey, who do you want"
"Hey, hello, may I ask, the editor-in-chief of Longyun Novel Network, Killing Rose, I am Tianen." To Su Shichen's expectation, the sound on the other end of the phone turned out to be a woman, like a yellow oriole, crisp and energetic. Just by listening to the sound, you can imagine that the person on the other end of the phone is definitely no more than twenty-five years old.
How could the editor-in-chief of Longyun Novel Network be so young? It wasn't because he called the wrong number. Just as Su Shichendong was thinking about it, he gave an accurate reply on the other end of the phone.
"You are the kindness of heaven, and you are the kindness of the killing rose to me. Listening to the sound of heaven, you should be less than twenty years old. The narrative method of "The Legend of Mortals Cultivation of Immortals" is so sophisticated and smooth. I thought the author was a middle-aged man. I didn't expect that he was so young and promising."
"I didn't expect that the editor-in-chief of Longyun Novel Network, who talks about it on the Internet, would be a girl, more young and promising." The two of them flattered each other, and there was no generation gap between them, so they felt much easier to talk to.
Then Kill Rose thought he wanted an outline.
This made Su Shichen stump. He was plagiarizing it directly in his mind. What is the outline?
"There is no substantial outline, but this story has been conceived in my mind for a long time. The outline is all in my mind. If you want, I can say it right away."
When writing novels, it is not necessary to have an outline, but there is a better outline, but some authors have different styles. It is like a sentence written by a master online writer on Earth: I never need an outline when writing novels, because I believe that tomorrow will have a better idea than today.
Well, but this level of confidence and this level is not something that ordinary flop writers can achieve, so as flops, it is better to write an outline honestly.
Killing Rose patiently listened to the summary of "The Legend of Mortals Cultivating Immortals".
It was during this process that when the bus arrived at the station, the outline was almost explained.
"Okay, it's best to transfer "The Legend of Mortals Cultivation" from the Singularity to our Longyun Novels. You have published 400,000 words at Qidian. You will post 300,000 words on the first day when you transfer to Longyun Novels.com and send 300,000 words on the first day, and another 100,000 words on the second day. I will send you the contract later. I will apply for the author number to send it to the IQ. You are my author, and I will arrange recommendations for you."
Generally, the editors of the author are divided into editor-in-chief and contracted editors. The important editors of novel websites are generally the editor-in-chief review. There are many things to do with the editor, so generally speaking, the editor-in-chief does not bring the author. However, this time he directly signed the contract as the editor-in-chief, and the benefits are absolutely good.
"It is best to send the contract within three days, but the contract is not signed. Although I am the editor-in-chief of the website, I am not embarrassed to recommend the novel that is too important."
"Yeah" is understandable. Killing Rose explained some precautions and then hung up the phone.
When I arrived at Wang Ni's house, I was about to knock on the door, but I found that there was a gap in the door. It seemed that Wang Ni knew that he was coming and deliberately left a gap.
Go into the house casually "Auntie, I'm here"
When I entered the house, I saw that if Wang Ni was concentrating on her work, lowered her head and wrote some project, and heard the sound that she just hummed in a nasal tone and didn't even raise her head.
Aunt Wang is really too cold in normal times. If you want to make some, please give it to Aunt Wang. Aunt Wang is completely exuding the charm of a mature woman, and it is OK...
"What and what, Su Shichen, how dirty can you do, like this?" He lowered his head and reflected on himself.
"Auntie, I won't say hello to you if I have something to do, just do whatever I want." I didn't raise my head.
"Auntie, have you been dismissed by Deyun Publishing House? Why do you still have a job?"
"The work of Deyun Publishing House has naturally been entrusted, so now my aunt is working on a plan."
"Auntie, why did you suddenly get dismissed by the president when you are a good editor at Deyun Publishing House?"
"It's about publishing "Shelmes Detectives""
"What's wrong with "Detective Sherlock Holmes"?"
"Xiaochen, your previous book, "The Legend of Wukong", made a big profit for the publisher, and the publisher naturally focused on "Shelf's Detective Collection", so the president asked his aunt to sign the book for you, but I had a disagreement with the president on the price, so I was dismissed."
"Auntie, what is the price in your mind?"
"Split into 14%"
The 14% share is a very different thing from the buyout of 100 words. The 14% price is only achieved by a first-class author. This price is very consistent with his current fame.
As for more than 15% of the required top authors to achieve this share, more than 20% of the terrifying stratification are in line with international level writers, few top writers in China, and even fewer international writers.
"This kind of president is short-sighted, Deyun Publishing House is not far from decline under the control of this kind of president. Auntie doesn't have to be careless."
"Don't sign a contract with Deyun Publishing House for this book. Xiaochen, you are now famous, and it is not impossible to get a 14% share."
"Well, by the way, aunt, what plan are you writing?"
"There may be no hope of copying this time, and my aunt doesn't want to work in Deyun Publishing House anymore. My aunt has been the editor-in-chief for many years and has some vision and has accumulated some connections, so she plans to open a cultural communication company to continue doing some publishing things."
There is an essential difference between cultural communication companies and publishing houses. Although the work is roughly the same, it is never an easy thing to establish a publishing house on earth or in this world, but it is much easier to establish a cultural communication company.
"By the way, aunt, you must need to focus on your works when you set up a cultural communication company. I wonder if you have received it?"
"No" the newly opened cultural communication company should be famous in one go, because only by making the reputation so that the authors can have manuscripts and publish more potential books, and from then on, enter a better and better cycle of conscience.
On the contrary, if the first shot is not famous, it will become more and more unknown and eventually fall into a disgusting cycle.
"Otherwise, how about publishing "Shelf's Detective Collection" in my new company? Although publishing "Shelf's Detective Collection" does not have the same influence as a first-class author, it is still okay to become famous around Yangcheng."
"No need" Wang Ni looked at Su Shichen for a moment and finally refused.
"Why"
"The company has been newly opened and its publicity is not strong. If Xiaochen's "Shelf's Detective Collection" is published in my aunt's company, sales will drop by at least 20%.
It turns out that Aunt Wang cares about him and doesn't want him to suffer any losses.
"It's okay, then Auntie, please give me a higher share. I believe Auntie won't let me suffer."
Sales volume declines when the sales volume decreases. The sales of "Shelf Holmes Collection" was originally based on the popularity abroad. Even in China, it did not contribute much sales to "Shelf Holmes Collection". If it weren't for the time being, Su Shichen would have directly searched the original English version in his mind and invested it abroad. That was the time when "Shelf Holmes Collection" truly showed its original charm.
However, you must learn English well before this, otherwise you will think of a person who fails even the English exam but writes a classic English book. This is unscientific.
And the most important thing is that Aunt Wang was almost dismissed for him. In the eyes of men, they should not only have interests, but also have friendship and must be supported.
"Auntie, don't refuse to agree. If you don't agree, I would rather "The Sherlock Holmes Detectives" not be published."
"Okay, aunt gives you a 17% share." Wang Ni directly increased the share from 14% to 17% three percentage points. Although Su Shichen himself believes that 17% of "Shelmes Detective" is definitely worth this price, being single is really too high for his current fame.
"that……"
"Okay, it's 17%. Otherwise, my aunt wouldn't have agreed to the publication of "The Sherlock Holmes Detective Collection". "When Wang Ni's decisive tone, Su Shichen knew that this matter was not discussed.
"Auntie, you haven't had dinner yet, what are you ready to eat in the refrigerator?"
"Building a new cultural communication company is not an easy task. There are still many plans to do. Now there is an additional promotional plan for "Shelmes Detectives Collection", and order takeaway in a while."
"How can I just eat takeout?" Su Shichen said that, and he was going to buy vegetables in the vegetable market and work in the kitchen.
Although I had been busy for a long time, it was worth it, and I made a sumptuous dinner.
"Auntie is here to have dinner."
"Oh" Wang Ni was writing on the plan while eating.
"Don't do things when you eat, come after you finish eating."
"Oh" At this time, Wang Ni was like a child who was stopped by her parents when she was eating and watching TV.
Wang Ni obediently put down her pen and devoted herself to eating.
This feeling is very good. Aunt Wang, who is usually as strong as a queen, is now as obedient as a child. This sense of accomplishment is very pleasant.
After eating, he packed up the food, and Wang Ni naturally started working.
Wang Ni is definitely the queen at work, but she is a child in life. She has nothing in the refrigerator, and there are many instant noodles boxes in the trash can, and there are many takeaways on the kitchen wall.
A strong woman who is desperate for her work is really worrying in life.
