Chapter 193: Return to Hongchuan

   It was the sixth day of the new year in a blink of an eye. Xi Muhan was going to return to Yunhai to prepare for the start of the new semester. Shen Xin also went to Hongchuan to start a new life.

   Su Han spent three days and nights, after finishing the text, he returned to Hongchuan one step in advance.

   Jiyinxuan Zecao picked dozens of pages of personal settings, and accompanied Xi Muhan on the plane to the sea of ​​clouds.

   After the year, air tickets were extremely difficult to buy. With the help of Ji Yinxuan, Shen Xin finally caught up with the last flight on the sixth day of the sixth day.

   After getting off the plane, the cold wind made Shen Xin tremble.

   To be honest, Hongchuan is also considered to be southern, but compared with Yushui, it is still ten degrees worse.

   Shen Xin quickly stopped a taxi, found a decent hotel, and stayed temporarily.

   This time I came to Hongchuan no better than the last time, because I didn't have a place to stay, so I came here this time without a destination.

   Of course, Shen Xin also knows that it is the business to find a house to rent first.

   He came to Hongchuan and was unfamiliar with the place where he was born. The magazine must provide some necessary help.

   After getting up early the next day, Shen Xin contacted Wang Wenhong.

   "I'm still on the road... please wait a day. By the way, what kind of house do you want?"

"What kind of house?" Shen Xin thought for a moment, "Quiet, far from the downtown area, a little bigger, I might still want to make a studio. By the way, the price should be reasonable. I don't want to pay the house without paying the salary. Assistant salary."

   "I see, I will give you news tomorrow." Wang Wenhong agreed.

   After hanging up the phone, Shen Xin also found a few more suitable houses on the Internet, but the prices were quite touching, all of which were above 6,000.

   Finally, Shen Xin decided to look at the house Wang Wenhong was looking for before making a decision.

  Wang Wenhong was very punctual. He called at noon the next day and gave Shen Xin an address to take a taxi.

   The place Wang Wenhong said was far away from the hotel, almost across the entire Hongchuan City. Shen Xin got off a taxi and found that it was a community with a very good environment.

  According to Wang Wenhong's prompt, Shen Xin came to the downstairs on the 17th floor. Just as he was about to contact Wang Wenhong again, Wang Wenhong opened the door downstairs and said, "Come in quickly."

   "How many floors?" Shen Xin asked curiously.

"The top floor is a two-story compound building. The next floor can be used as an assistant's studio, and the second floor can be used as your studio and residence, completely separated from the downstairs." Wang Wenhong took Shen Xin's luggage Box, led Shen Xin into the elevator and pushed down the 25th floor.

   "How much is the rent?" Shen Xin asked.

   "One hundred twenty thousand yuan a year. I think if the periodical that Mr. Shen draws is relatively long, it is best to rent for a few more years, so as to avoid the rent increase."

   This price is a lot more expensive than the houses Shen Xin looked at, but those houses are all 120 square meters of apartments, which is different from a compound building.

   The elevator door opened, and Shen Xin followed Wang Wenhong up one floor along the stairs, and finally came to the compound building.

   The door opened, and Shen Xin's eyes suddenly lit up.

   The lower floor of this compound building is large enough to have five or six workbenches. After computers and printers are installed, it is estimated that there will be a sofa. The ceiling is a semicircle, and one more piece extends from the aisle on the second floor, enough to hold two workbenches.

   Outside on the first floor, there is a small balcony, which is useful for drying clothes.

   If the disadvantage is that there is not much furniture, except for the wardrobe and bed, and a few chairs, there is very little other furniture in the room.

   But that’s okay, so that I don’t have to move to the workbench when I have time and have to make room.

   "Where is the homeowner?" Shen Xin asked.

   "Not here. Let's talk about the contract for the magazine first. If the contract is not negotiated, you will rent the house for nothing, right?" Wang Wenhong explained.

   "Yes." Shen Xin nodded and said.

  Wang Wenhong is right. If you rent a house and the contract is not negotiated, you will be really blind.

   "So, you are my editor?" Shen Xin asked back.

   "As you know, it has been difficult for me this year, so let's give it a chance." Wang Wenhong folded his hands and smiled bitterly.

   He resigned from "Dreamer" last year and left. After the Chinese New Year, he reunited with Shen Xin. It is not too much to say that it was a year.

   "I hope we can have a good cooperation." Shen Xin stretched out his hand.

   "Do my best to make the next work the most popular comic in "icfuture"." Wang Wenhong held Shen Xin's hand tightly, his face full of confidence.

  Wang Wenhong took out the contract from the document package, in duplicate, and handed it to Shen Xin.

   The thickness of the "icfuture" contract is almost equivalent to two "newworld" contracts. The terms are densely packed, and most of the imaginable situations are listed.

"This contract is slightly different from that of other cartoonists. The two things you and the editor-in-chief said, such as not interfering with the completion of the work, only signing a cartoon contract with the magazine... These are all written in the contract. At the same time, the magazine The condition of the agency, the work must be completed, is also written in it." Wang Wenhong explained to Shen Xin one by one.

   Shen Xin took it seriously, and Wang Wenhong explained it in detail.

"The last is the drafting fee. Only teacher Wang Yunze received a single-page draft fee of 600 yuan for "icfuture". This is because he only qualified after he won the'Best Feature Comic Award', and the others are at most five hundred. The page is 15 times that of the black and white page, the royalty is 10%, and other corresponding copyright fees are stated in the contract."

   Shen Xin nodded.

Although it looks similar to the "newworld" contract, the single-page manuscript fee is slightly higher, and the royalties have been increased from 8% to 10%, but the volume of the two magazines is completely different, and the sales of the single-line books are not at the same level. In general, the contract More real than "newworld".

   "Correspondingly, the cost of the assistant is higher than that of Hongchuan. No accommodation is provided, but meals and transportation expenses are provided."

   Shen Xin nodded slightly. Even though he made a lot of money, he would spend a lot of money. Considering that "Goku" is more troublesome than other types of comics~www.NovelMTL.com~Three assistants should be needed. A month’s expenses for the assistants are not a small expense, plus income tax and rent are deducted, and supervisors are also hired...

   Wait, you won't make ends meet, will you?

   "Teacher Shen, what's the matter?" Wang Wenhong quickly asked when Shen Xin's expression changed slightly.

   "How much does it cost to buy this house?" Shen Xin asked.

   "This house?" Wang Wenhong looked around, "Well, although it is on the edge of the city, I estimate that it should cost about 5 million."

   Shen Xin rolled his eyes, temporarily unable to buy it.

   "400,000 in four years." Shen Xin said suddenly.

"what?"

   Hearing Shen Xin suddenly say this, Wang Wenhong did not react.

   "I mean, if four hundred thousand can be negotiated in four years, I will rent it for four years." Shen Xin looked at Wang Wenhong seriously.

   "Four years?"

  Wang Wenhong's eyes lit up, since Shen Xin said so, then this cartoon will take almost three years to draw.

   "No problem, I must be able to talk." Wang Wenhong was ecstatic in his heart, and immediately patted his chest and said.

   "By the way, I have one more thing." Shen Xin meditated a little earlier and raised his head and said.

   "You said." Wang Wenhong asked.

   "Where is the library?"

   Wang Wenhong's eyelids twitched.

   Library? It seems not too close.
