I am really a language teacher
Chapter 034: VAM Agreement
"Is the fifth brother here?" Sun Ping returned home and found that his editor-in-chief Tao Zhiyao was looking for him on Message.Ever since he got acquainted with Tao Zhiyao, Sun Ping called Tao Zhiyao Tao Zi, and Tao Zhiyao kept pace with the times and called him Lao Wu.
"What's the matter? Editor Peach?" Sun Ping knew that Peach Yaoyao wouldn't look for him unless he had something important to do.
"Your "Looking for the Qin" is almost finished? How is the preparation of the new book? If you have an outline, remember to show it to me. And you are an old author. If you have a 20-word manuscript, you can go directly to the internal review. Signed." Peach Yaoyao reminded, "I also want to congratulate you, your physical book "Wukong Biography" has passed the third trial and entered the typesetting and distribution process. Century Literature and Art Publishing House said that the fastest ten It will be released nationwide in February. The first printing is about 16 copies, and the unit price is 15 yuan. Then your royalties are 10%, and you can get all the royalties of the first printing at the end of December, but We will draw [-]% of the agency fee and help you pay the tax. I will give you the final income and withholding details together with the author's remuneration."
"Then thank you Taozi for editing, okay!" Sun Ping couldn't help showing off his cuteness on Message. "My new book is called "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty". The outline has been prepared a long time ago, and 30 words have been saved. Now I will send you the outline and the first [-] words."
"Wow! If only all the authors under me were as self-conscious as you." Peach Yaoyao made a crying emoji and logged off.
Sun Ping knew that she should be reviewing the manuscript, so he didn't bother Tao Zhiyao anymore.What Sun Ping didn't expect was that his new book outline sparked a huge discussion in the editorial department of Century.com.As Sun Ping was the first god-confessed author of Shiji.com, Shiji.com naturally planned to use the best resources.However, there are too many examples in the online literature circle of "see you after one hit, see you later", so everyone still has a high standard of review for Sun Ping's new book.
And Tao Zhiyao, after reading the [-]-word manuscript, felt that Zhongyuan Wubai's writing power had improved several levels compared to "Looking for Qin Ji".In terms of career line, the protagonist still appears as an image of a historical intervener, but the fit is more perfect; and in terms of emotional line, the "harem flow" criticized by female readers in "Looking for Qin Ji" has been greatly curbed. It won't offend too many female readers.With these two points alone, Peach Yaoyao is fully planning to give Sun Ping a diamond contract, but this novel is "two male protagonists"!
In the Internet circle, this is a prelude to death.What is important in online articles is the sense of substitution. Which of your two male protagonists is better for readers to substitute into?And no matter which one is substituted, the other must be the rhythm of rushing to the street.This made Peach Yaoyao very entangled, so she had to kick the question to the editor-in-chief Hou Shengye.
"As far as the outline and the current manuscript are concerned, it has fully met the standard for internal signing. And according to the internal reform of the group, we can definitely give the highest diamond contract for this new book." Hou Shengye replied, "You are worried about the two males now. Is it the Lord's setting?"
"Yeah, the biggest problem with this book is the dual male protagonists." Peach Yaoyao didn't hide his thoughts, "but I also feel that the dual male protagonists will be the biggest attraction of this book. Therefore, this book It is impossible to modify this point. Therefore, I am a little worried. If we give the diamond contract, if the final result is not satisfactory, not only the godhead that Zhongyuan Wubai has just condensed will have problems, but also the face of our website will be lost. After all, we are not as good as Enlightenment.com, they have so many big and small god reserves."
Hou Shengye didn't answer, but tapped the table with his pen. "Your worry is not unreasonable. Judging from the data of Sweet Potato Teng's Internet Novel Hot List and Internet Author Hot List, our Century.com only has Poison Earl besides Zhongyuan Wubai. But Poison Earl's article It has always been too dark, so we have a lot of restrictions on promotion. So strictly speaking, the only cards we can play are Zhongyuan Wubai.
According to the guys in Shenyu, our Zhongyuan Wubai is the only author who can challenge the four heavenly kings of Enlightenment.com. If the new book breaks Zhongyuan Wubai's godhead, it will be a loss for us and Zhongyuan Wubai.How about this, you discuss with him, tell him our concerns, and see what he thinks.In addition, you also have to work hard to discover new authors.
Last time you snatched Zhongyuan Wubai here, which can be said to be a great contribution to our century network, and the group is planning to promote you to the deputy editor-in-chief.If you can still attract a god-level author, basically the promotion decision is a certainty.As you know, my main job now is administration and daily management.If you can be promoted to deputy editor, the future management of the website will belong to you.Tao Ying, don't let me down. "
"I understand, editor-in-chief." Tao Zhiyao (Tao Ying's real name) nodded. "I will try my best to communicate with Zhongyuan Wubai, and at the same time I will try my best to find a god-level author."
Peach Yaoyao understands that her biggest opportunity in the industry has arrived, and it depends on whether she can seize it.Although the editor-in-chief's words are very naked, they are also very practical.You can't bring greater profits to the company, so why should the company treat you better?Peach Yaoyao is no longer a little sister who has just entered the workplace, of course she understands this truth.
After returning to her seat, she calmed down, and then found Zhongyuan Wubai on Message, "Old Wu, I just discussed with the editor-in-chief. In terms of your outline and writing style, we can even give you Platinum contract. But the current setting of two male protagonists is completely in the rhythm of the Internet circle, can you modify this setting?"
Seeing this request, Sun Ping could only smile wryly.Indeed, the setting of two male protagonists is one of the most pleasing and least pleasing settings.Because according to ordinary people's thinking, radish and cabbage have their own preferences.Then if I write a male protagonist with cabbage, and then write a male protagonist with carrots, wouldn’t all the readers in the world fall into my grasp?But the actual effect is that a chef who can cook cabbage may not be able to cook radishes.So the final result is that cabbage is made into "Jade and White Jade Soup", while radish is turned into "radish meeting". How can you embarrass the other half of the readers?The most frightening thing is that the cabbage was not made into "Jade and White Jade Soup", but the radish became "homemade radish dregs", so readers on both sides collapsed...
But the problem is that Huang Yi's original version of "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" actually solved this problem very well.Then, after systematic modification and adjustment, the current result is completely "Jade and White Jade Soup" plus "A Gathering of Heroes".But because there are too many examples of failure, it is estimated that few editors just let themselves try.
"Peach editor, let me tell you the truth, one of the biggest highlights of this book is the two male protagonists. Don't worry, I will definitely not write Beng Qu." Sun Ping had no choice but to promise.
"Old Five, you know that you have just condensed your godhood, and we still expect you to challenge the four heavenly kings of Qidi.com." Taozi persuaded her earnestly, "If your book collapses, not only our plan will fail , Even the godhead you just condensed will collapse immediately. I think you are also in the domain of God? Don’t you see how many people are waiting for you to collapse yourself? Listen to the editor’s advice, let’s change the setting. "
Sun Ping thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Peach editor, what if I double-open? I also have a fairy tale novel here, with a single hero setting, and there are outlines and saved manuscripts. If I double-open, then Can I continue to write "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty"?"
"What? You want to double play?" Peach Yaoyao was taken aback. This is simply a more murderous approach than the dual male lead setting. "No! No god-level author has ever dared to double open. What is the difference between you and writing two male protagonists at the same time? I firmly oppose it!"
"Editor Taozi, read the outline and the manuscript first." Sun Ping threw the outline and manuscript of "Zhu Xian" over, "You also know the speed at which I serialized "Looking for the Qin". No matter what, you trust me this time!"
"I'll discuss it with the editor-in-chief again."
Peach Yaoyao temporarily left Message.She opened the file Sun Ping gave her, and this time, "Zhu Xian" gave her another feeling.You must know that Zhongyuan Wubai's "Looking for Qin Ji" is not only criticized for "harem style", but also has many fans of god-level authors who have ridiculed because of the small whiteness of the text.But the text of this "Zhu Xian" is very meaningful, and it is completely the standard of physical books.
Think about it too, how can someone who can write words like "Wukong Biography" have poor writing skills?People just don't want to play with you.
Peach Yaoyao took a deep breath and knocked on the editor-in-chief's door again.
"You mean to make him double?" Hou Shengye frowned and said, "This is worse than the 'double hero'!"
"So what?" Tao Zhiyao said with a wry smile, "Could it be possible to force them away? Editor-in-Chief, you haven't read the manuscripts of "The Legend of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" and "Zhu Xian". If you want me to say, he might as well directly Forget about publishing, what are you doing in the online literature circle?"
"Interesting!" Hou Shengye said suddenly, "Taozi, how about we do a synchronous serialization with the group's magazine?"
"Eh?" Peach Yaoyao was taken aback, "Editor-in-chief, you seem to be older than me this time."
"No way." Hou Shengye shrugged, "As you know, novels with the theme of fairy tales and martial arts are generally popular in the Internet literature circle. As a result, the group's head twitched and prepared a book called "Wulin Style" The novel magazine. Then, it was sad. A few days ago, their editor-in-chief even cried and said that the group is really a scam. Although physical magazines are declining now, in some regions and readers, physical magazines are still It has its unique charm. You tell that kid from Zhongyuan Wubai that we want to sign a VAM agreement. We can give him the treatment of two book diamond contracts, and help him persuade the "Wulin Style" magazine. But my request It's very simple. Each book must submit a manuscript of 5 characters per month, and the average number of clicks per chapter cannot be less than [-]. Otherwise, we will sign the exclusive publishing rights for the next ten years. Remember, if he loses, the next Ten years is pretty much our cheap writer."
"I see." Peach Yaoyao immediately understood the editor's thoughts.Even if Zhongyuan Wubai's godhead collapses this time, he is definitely a first-line writer.And with Zhongyuan Wubai's ability, can you guarantee that he won't have the chance to condense his godhead again in the future?Now that he is tied to Century Online with a gambling contract, then Century Online in the future will not lose money no matter what.
When Peach Yaoyao told Sun Ping the proposal and content of the VAM agreement, Sun Ping fell silent.From the perspective of Century.com, there is nothing wrong with the VAM agreement, which is the way to minimize the risk of the website.However, what the other party brought out was too bad. Sun Ping replied: "It's okay to bet on each other, but your sincerity is not great enough!"
"What's the matter? Editor Peach?" Sun Ping knew that Peach Yaoyao wouldn't look for him unless he had something important to do.
"Your "Looking for the Qin" is almost finished? How is the preparation of the new book? If you have an outline, remember to show it to me. And you are an old author.
