Chapter 21 Signing Contracts and Recording Songs

The next morning, Ye Chen got up and told Zhao Qingwei to accompany her to record songs in the afternoon, and then walked towards Chaoyang Magazine, where Wang Jing was.

More than half an hour later, Ye Chen came to Chaoyang Magazine. After telling the front desk receptionist that he had an appointment, the receptionist at the front desk led Ye Chen to the door of an office, and Ye Chen knocked on the door.

"Come in." A beautiful female voice came.

Ye Chen entered the office, and it could be seen that the owner of the office was a very generous person. The office layout was very simple, and all the items were placed in an orderly manner.

Ye Chen looked at the woman in front of the office chair, she was a very mature woman with a beautiful oval face and a plump figure, especially the fullness of her chest, the charm of a mature woman could be seen at a glance.

While Ye Chen was sizing up Wang Jing, Wang Jing was also sizing up Ye Chen. Due to the huge shock that "Devotion of Suspect X" brought to Wang Jing yesterday, Wang Jing asked the reception staff at the front desk as soon as she got to work today, and she also deliberately The morning thing was turned off just to meet the author, so Wang Jing quickly guessed who Ye Chen was, but isn't he too young?
"Excuse me, are you Mr. Ye? I didn't expect Mr. Ye to be so young. He is really a hero." Wang Jing said with a smile on her face.

"Where is it, Editor Wang has won the award." Ye Chen said modestly.

After a simple greeting, Ye Chen also called Wang Jing "Aunt Wang", and Wang Jing called Ye Chen Xiaochen, and then came to the topic.

"Aunt Wang, I don't know what the magazine's contract conditions are for me?"

After a simple conversation, Wang Jing also admired the young man in front of him who looked young enough to be her own son, and knew that Ye Chen was studying at Qingshui High School, the best high school in the city. He was 17 years old this year, had good grades, was young, and Talented, humble and humble, it would be hard for Wang Jing not to like her.

There is also pride hidden in her bones, Wang Jing thought to herself.As the editor-in-chief of a magazine, Wang Jing has always had a good eye for seeing people. Generally, when boys of Ye Chen's age hear that Wang Jing is the editor-in-chief, they are like a mouse seeing a cat, but Ye Chen is not. Wang Jing can feel Ye Chen Although the words are very modest, in fact, Wang Jing has always felt that she is not humble, and puts herself on an equal footing with Wang Jing. At first, Wang Jing thought it was an illusion, but after a short conversation, she really realized it. I also have some appreciation for Ye Chen in my heart.

When it comes to business, Wang Jing also put away the smile on her face, and said solemnly: "Xiaochen, since you call me Aunt Wang, Aunt Wang will not lie to you. There are two ways to sign a contract with the magazine." , One is to hand over the full rights of your novel to the magazine, including the copyright. Since you are a newcomer but your book is of good quality, Aunt Wang can decide to give you 8 yuan."

Speaking of this, Wang Jing paused, and seeing Ye Chen shaking her head, she continued to say: "The second is to serialize in the magazine, and the copyright still belongs to you, but the magazine can only give you [-], and the rest of the proceeds are completely free." It depends on the sales volume, if the sales volume is not good, there may be so many, I don’t know which one you choose?”

After hearing Wang Jing's words, Ye Chen said without hesitation: "I choose the second option!"

Wang Jing nodded. She already expected that Ye Chen would choose the second option. Even Wang Jing felt that Ye Chen should choose the second option. Out of long-term work experience and keen control of the market, Wang Jing had a kind of Intuition, Ye Chen's book will definitely be popular!It's just the degree of fire.

Seeing Ye Chen choose the second way of cooperation at this moment, Wang Jing took another high look. She was clear-headed and not tempted by the immediate benefits, but set her sights far away. At this age, it is really rare.

After confirming the cooperation method, Ye Chen signed the contract with Wang Jing next. It wasn't that Ye Chen was too casual, but because of his experience as an editor in his previous life, Ye Chen knew this business very well. Obviously, Wang Jing was very sincere, so Ye Chen didn't hesitate.

The trust shown by Ye Chen also made Wang Jing very happy. In fact, since she entered the society and became the editor of this magazine, Wang Jing has seen too many scenes where she called her brother and brother for friendship, but turned her face and turned her face ruthlessly when she turned around. When self-interest is involved, even the best relationship on the surface can become penny-pinching.

Or maybe there is a saying in the previous life that is good, if you want to see if a friend really treats you as a friend, you can ask him to borrow money, but feelings have never been tempered by the test of interests, and how many people dare to do this To try, to prove?

If people are full of kindness and friendship, as described in the ultimate goal of the previous life, it is not a society, but a paradise!And there is no heaven in this world at all. The so-called heaven is just a lie told by the living to the dead!
After signing the contract, Wang Jing wanted to invite Ye Chen to have lunch together. Ye Chen looked at the time and remembered that he had to record a song with Zhao Qingwei in the afternoon. Ye Chen declined Wang Jing's proposal and said apologetically:

"I'm sorry, Aunt Wang, I have to accompany a friend on business this afternoon. Next time, next time I invite Aunt Wang to dinner, I will make an apology."

Wang Jing smiled and said, "It's okay, but Aunt Wang has made a note of this meal, so I won't be able to save it when the time comes."

Ye Chen said briskly, "No problem."

Looking at Ye Chen, Wang Jing suddenly remembered the email from yesterday. Wang Jing asked curiously, "Xiaochen, Aunt Wang asked you something. Where did you know my private email address?"

After hearing this, Ye Chen felt that there was nothing to keep secret. Seeing Wang Jing looking at him, he explained: "It was Brother Zheng, the editor-in-chief of Huayu Publishing House, who told me that I signed a contract with Brother Zheng for another book. It has to be published in a week."

Speaking of this, Ye Chen hesitated and said: "Aunt Wang, I'm sorry, I submitted this article to your mailbox for a purpose. I want to serialize in your magazine first to make a name for myself."

After listening to Wang Jing, she was shocked and admired at the same time. She didn't care that Marven Ye planned to use his magazine as a springboard. After all, his magazine didn't have much conflict of interest with the publishing house, and Marven Ye serialized his own magazine in his magazine. The sales volume of the magazine is also beneficial, which is a win-win situation.

However, what Wang Jing was curious about was that Ye Chen said that she still had a book to be published in two weeks. Thinking of "The Devotion of Suspect X" she had read yesterday, Wang Jing asked Ye Chen: "Then what is your other book type?" ? Is it the same as this one? By the way, what type of novel is yours?"

Wang Jing asked a lot of questions, but Ye Chen still explained: "Yes, they are the same type, but there are some differences. In terms of subject matter, my two books are different from all the books on the market. , I call it a speculative novel."

Before that, Wang Jing already had some guesses in her heart, but now she heard Ye Chen admit it, and she was only shocked!
Looking at Ye Chen's slightly immature face, how old is he?Just turned 17!It has already created a genre of fiction.

At this moment, for the first time, Wang Jing felt that it would be great if her company was not a magazine but a publishing house, and she also envied Zheng Weilai in her heart.

Wang Jing looked at Ye Chen with a complicated face, and often exhaled, "Xiao Chen, you can come and see Aunt Wang if you have nothing to do in the future. Since you still have something to do, I won't keep you today."

In order not to be too shocked, Wang Jing said silently in her heart.

Ye Chen nodded and said, "Success, see you later, Aunt Wang."

"See you."

When Ye Chen returned home, it was already twelve o'clock in the noon. As soon as he opened the door with the key, he saw Zhao Qingwei standing in front of the door and looking at him unkindly.

Ye Chen's heart skipped a beat, and he asked cautiously, "What's wrong?"

"Ye Chen, you still know to come back! You agreed to accompany me to record the song, look at what time it is, it's already afternoon!" Zhao Qingwei said with a displeased face.

When Ye Chen heard it, he really wanted to say that it was still noon, but seeing Zhao Qingwei's unfriendly expression, he wisely chose to keep silent.

Sure enough, seeing Ye Chen's "humbly admitting his mistake", Zhao Qingwei was very satisfied, threw a bag to Ye Chen, and said to Ye Chen: "Let's go."

Ye Chen took the bag with a look of astonishment and asked, "Where are you going?"

She gave Ye Chen an angry look, and Zhao Qingwei said fiercely: "Of course I'm going to record a song, otherwise, where else do you want to go?"

Ye Chen smiled bitterly: "I just got home, I haven't entered the door yet, besides, I didn't even eat lunch."

When Zhao Qingwei heard this, she glanced at Ye Chen, and seeing Ye Chen pretending to be pitiful, she felt amused in her heart, and said, "That's right, what you said makes sense."

Ye Chen was overjoyed, and quickly said: "Then let's eat before leaving?"

"Finished?" Zhao Qingwei said with a smile.

"It's over." Ye Chen said.

"Then let's go."

"where to?"

"Record a song."

"."

More than half an hour later, Ye Chen followed Zhao Qingwei to a place that Ye Chen had visited last time, and it was Shiyin Street.

Ye Chen looked at the calm Zhao Qingwei in front of him, and asked curiously, "Beauty Zhao, are you sure this is the place? Isn't this place selling musical instruments?"

Zhao Qingwei, who was silent all the way, looked back at Zhao Qingwei, the meaning was obvious, no explanation! ! !

Ye Chen was making fun of himself, so he had no choice but to follow Zhao Qingwei forward.Not long after, I followed Zhao Qingwei to the front of a house with only two words "Tian Lai" on the signboard.

Ye Chen curled his lips, remembering that he didn't even eat lunch just to come to such a dilapidated recording studio, Ye Chen muttered in a low voice: "The name is very arrogant, but it's too vulgar."

Perhaps hearing Ye Chen's complaint, Zhao Qingwei in front turned her head and gave Ye Chen a hard look, but said nothing.

At this moment, along with the sound of footsteps coming from behind, two voices came.

"Brother Ye Chen, I didn't expect it to be you, why did you come here?" This is very familiar, where did Ye Chen hear it.

"Vulgar? Really vulgar? For an ordinary person who doesn't understand music, even music is vulgar!" This one is very strange, but it makes Ye Chen very uncomfortable.
