After the 8th class, Li Heng rushed to the English teacher's house as soon as possible.
At this time, Chen Xiaomi and Zou Ping were already there. Wang Runwen helped the two make tea and water and chat with them.
Seeing him appear at the door, the three of them turned their heads together, and the living room, which had just been talking, suddenly became quiet.
After changing his shoes, Li Heng walked over and sat down and said apologetically: "The get out of class has just ended, so I have been waiting for you for a long time."
After the etiquette greetings, he did not drag on the spot and went straight to the topic and asked: "What do you two say about printing and royalties?"
Li Heng looked at Chen Xiaomi, who didn't say anything.
Zou Ping said happily: "The club stated that the publication agreement for the official publication must be carried out at 30 yuan, 1,000 words.
If the influence is great, the number of printings of a single novel in the future will only be triggered when the number of printings exceeded 300,000 copies."
Is there 300,000 copies of a single book?
If a book is priced at 3 yuan, then you can get 45,000 yuan for 300,000 yuan.
hiss!
45,000 in the 1980s!
What a terrifying amount, comparable to that of millions and tens of millions of years later, he suddenly scared him.
Although he didn't understand the literary market in this era, and it seemed a bit embarrassing that a single book exceeded 300,000 yuan, the rewards brought were also real.
However, Li Heng felt that "Harvest" was already taking good care of him. After all, he still paid 30 yuan for the official publication contract agreement, which gave him a 100-word royalty. This gave him the royalties and there was no risk of gambling.
Hearing Zou Ping's words, Chen Xiaomi frowned secretly, feeling very incredible. Unexpectedly, "Received" magazine would really tear a hole for a new writer.
Even though this joke is semi-conservative, they did not treat Li Heng badly. The previous one was given royalties according to the highest standards in the industry.
You should know that when she reported the matter to the editor-in-chief, the other end was silent for a while, and then hung up the phone directly, leaving nothing else.
In Zou Ping's expectant eyes, Li Heng did not hesitate too much and agreed readily.
Next was the favorite publishing and signing matters. Li Heng was once a businessman. After passing the contract carefully, he found that there was no problem, so he signed the letter and pressed his fingerprint.
"Teacher Li, welcome to join our "Harvest" family. The 4,050 royalty fee will come to you within one week.
If there is a manuscript at the end, I hope we will give priority to it.”
The moment the agreement was signed, Zou Ping breathed a sigh of relief and shook hands with him enthusiastically and proactively.
"Everything is easy to say, thank you Editor Zou!" Li Heng also reached out and held it with the other party.
His words were sincere and had no perfunctory intentions.
After all, "Harvest" looks down on itself. While giving it privileges, it is not greedy for its own royalties.
Just because of these two points of righteousness and righteousness, he must remember them for the rest of his life.
In fact, what he didn't know was that the reason why Harvest magazine was so tolerant was that Mr. Ba could write "Living" of such a level at a young age and became loving talent.
Although the price of 30 yuan for a thousand words and 4,050 yuan for "Living" seems to be a lot, for a large magazine like "Harvest", it just sprinkles some water casually, without any pain or itching, and without any damage to any fur.
Of course, "Harvest" is not stupid and has some calculations.
If "Living" has a great influence enough to support the issuance of single-books and can exceed 300,000 copies, the income it will bring to the magazine will be millions, and paying him a little money is not too much. This is a win-win situation.
The question is, can "Alive" have such great influence?
This Li Heng is unsure?
"Harvest" magazine is also unsure?
Everything is unknown, so I have to wait...!
Zouping returned with a full load and left happily.
At the school gate, Li Heng looked at the other party's departure back and muttered in his heart: How damn it! The 5% royalty is still missing.
But he knew that this was too urgent, and it was already a huge love for others to make an exception for himself.
Later, I will write a second good novel and be more confident. I will raise the price with them.
Ever since Zouping agreed to the printing royalties, Chen Xiaomi knew that he was completely out of the blue.
But she did not leave immediately, but watched the absurd things happen in a curious mind.
That's right, royalties are extremely absurd things in her eyes. No one mentioned them in the past, and no one dared to mention them.
And now...
What surprised her even more was that the fledgling Li Heng didn't know that the world was so strong that he not only mentioned it, but Mr. Ba actually agreed.
All this is hard to imagine!
If this matter is exposed, I don’t know how much trouble it will cause.
The reason why she could guess accurately what Mr. Ba meant afterwards.
It is because it is not the courage to rely solely on the title of editor-in-chief of Harvest magazine. After all, it affects the interests of all publishing houses. Only Mr. Ba’s transcendent figures will not be afraid.
At this moment, Chen Xiaomi's mood at Li Heng was unprecedentedly complicated.
A thought suddenly popped up in his mind: If he had known that he had such a talent, he would have persuaded his sister-in-law to accept Aunt Run'e's proposal for marriage last summer.
Aunt Rune... This is really a long time ago. I haven't called it that in a long time.
Seeing Li Heng look over, Chen Xiaomi calmed down and said to him inexplicably:
"You are amazing, everyone is wrong."
Everyone in her mouth was referring to the Chen family and the lingering women in the village who watched tricks.
She couldn't imagine what kind of sensation would have caused if Li Heng became a great writer spread to the village?
What kind of dramatic changes will the attitude of the villagers be?
It is estimated that the threshold of the Li family, which is deserted, will become lively again.
after all…
After all, there are not many people in the country who can write works like "Living".
Chen Xiaomi didn't know why she had a cramp in her brain just now and wanted to praise him, but she had already said that she couldn't take it back, so she had to keep her face indifferent.
Li Heng was also a little stunned, thinking that he had hallucinations.
Ha! This woman praises herself in person?
Could you be kidding internationally?
You know, this is the first time this girl has said good things about herself in her past and present life. It’s really the sun has come out from the west!
Li Heng wanted to say thank you, but he instinctively nodded.
The two sides looked at each other and didn't say anything. After Chen Xiaomi politely expressed her gratitude to the English teacher, she left indifferently without looking back.
When the motorcycle Chen Xiaomi was riding disappeared on the road, Wang Runwen joked: Yes, he conquered an enemy."
This is wherever you go!
It is not so easy for the Chen family to completely conquer.
But the English teacher is so big.
After subconsciously taking a sneak glance, Li Heng quickly turned around and walked into the school gate.
Wang Runwen made his chest with both hands and stared at him coldly from behind.
He almost cursed: Everyone who came from Shangwan Village was sick? Women were like this, and men were like this.
Chapter completed!
