My Cartoonist Guide

When Shang Haozhi brought Yu Chen to Shen Xin's studio, Shen Xin and others were eating.

"President Shang, Mr. Yu, why are you here?"

Wang Wenhong looked up and saw the two of them with a look of surprise.

"It's still yesterday." Shang Haozhi explained.

"That's OK... why don't you go up and say?"

Shen Xin took out a piece of paper, wiped his mouth, and was about to stand up, but Xi Muhan grabbed his arm.

"What's the matter, I'll talk about it after eating. I just forgot my stomach trouble?" Xi Muhan said dissatisfied, "I don't cherish myself at all."

"..."

Shen Xin could only smile at Shang Haozhi, "Why don't you both sit down and have a meal?"

"No, you eat first, we will stand outside for a while." Shang Haozhi waved his hand quickly.

After Shen Xin rested for such a long time, the main thing he recuperated was stomach problems. Therefore, it is understandable that Xi Muhan pays more attention to his diet.

Shang Haozhi and Yu Chen came to the work area on the first floor.

When Yu Chen came here for the first time, everything was strange. His gaze swept around, looking like a curious baby, while Shang Haozhi's gaze fell on the display, which was still the original manuscript of "Steel Refining".

After the resumption of publication, "Steel Refining" will serialize Chapter 138, "Reversed into a Array", but at the moment the screen draft is Chapter 145.

After the suspension of the publication, the length of each chapter of "Steel Refining" was more than 30 pages. Recently, it has soared to more than 40 pages. Excluding the original 3 chapters, Shen Xin drew a hundred and sixty pages during the period of suspension. More than ten pages of manuscript.

"Ugh!"

Shang Haozhi sighed.

"What's the matter?" Yu Chen looked back.

"No... I just think that although Mr. Shen's requirements are very demanding, it is not easy for him... "ComicFuture" should not have a cartoonist who works harder than him." Shang Haozhi said, "Think about it, his The demands are not so excessive."

"why?"

"If the work of a hard-working and serious cartoonist is no different from other cartoonists, who will work hard in the future?" Shang Haozhi asked rhetorically.

"Yes." Yu Chen nodded and looked towards the direction of the restaurant, but saw Shen Xin and Wang Wenhong walking to the work area one after another.

"This teacher should be here for the first time, right?" Shen Xin's gaze shifted to Yu Chen.

Yu Chen looks like he is about thirty-five years old, with short shredded hair, wearing a white shirt, and a pair of rectangular glasses, and looks gentle.

"Hello, Teacher Shen, we should meet at the annual meeting. We used to be the editor-in-chief of "Young Future"." Yu Chen smiled and stretched out his right hand.

"It used to be?" Shen Xin was a little confused, but still shook hands with Yu Chen.

"Yes. I am now the editor-in-chief of "ComicFuture". Time is too short, I have not prepared a new business card, but the mobile phone number on it is valid." Yu Chen quickly took out the card holder, took out a business card, and handed it to Shen Xin.

Shen Xin was a little surprised. Yu Chen's words shocked him far more than a business card.

He took the business card, "Hello, please forgive me if there is anything wrong in the future."

"Definitely, definitely." Yu Chen nodded repeatedly.

After meeting Shen Xin, his liking for Shen Xin has increased a bit.

Shen Xin shifted his gaze to Shang Haozhi and speculated: "Ms. Shang, have you been promoted?"

"Can you guess this?" Shang Haozhi shook his head helplessly, "Forget it, I will be responsible for "ComicFuture" and the app in the future."

"Really? Congratulations." Shen Xin didn't expect this, and looked around, "This is not a place to talk, let's go up and talk?"

"The guest will do whatever you want." Shang Haozhi nodded.

"By the way, Dong Bao is very angry with me, right?" Shen Xin smiled.

"That means he didn't sleep last night." Shang Haozhi smiled bitterly.

Shen Xin sighed: "No way, we are negotiating, not playing house, so the tone will inevitably be too heavy."

"I understand, so I don't care about what happened yesterday. It's just that I can't represent the magazine, otherwise I would have promised you." Shang Haozhi said half-jokingly.

On the second floor, three people sat on the sofa, Wang Wenhong made a pot of tea, filled everyone with it, and sat next to Shen Xin.

"That's it. After thinking about it last night, Bao Dong agreed to all your requirements. But because the next comic has not yet come out, you probably don't know the title of the book. Therefore, we can't sign the contract, we can only give you a copy first. Agreement, wait until the comics come out, and then make up for the contract. Then there is the online version of the two comics..." Shang Haozhi opened the file package and took out six documents.

Basically, the contracts are in duplicate, one is handed over to the magazine, and the other is kept for yourself.

Shen Xin and Wang Wenhong took over the contract and quickly read the web comics contract. The comics' revenue was indeed 70%, and they were charged according to the call. If publicity is needed, the two comics must also cooperate.

The so-called publicity includes, but is not limited to, the free publicity of comics during the specified period, and free publicity on major forums and two-dimensional websites.

"I have a question." Wang Wenhong looked up and said after reading the contract.

"Ok?"

"If "Steel Refining" is published on the app, the sales of "ComicFuture" should also be affected?" Wang Wenhong asked.

Shen Xin also has this doubt. If "Steel Refining" is serialized on the app, then the sales of "ComicFuture" should decline. After all, there will always be some readers who buy "ComicFuture" only because of one or two comics.

"I think this is the way Yu Chen and I think, "God of Chess" will all be placed on the app, but the situation of "Steel Refining" is a bit special~www.NovelMTL.com~ will not be all on it until it is over. The volume will only be free for one or two words. In this way, readers who want to read the content below must either buy the comics on the app or buy the booklet.

"The latest two-volume single-volume comics will not appear on the app, but the app will have activities. If a reader spends a certain amount on the app, the reader will be provided with the latest volume for free for a limited time, and the fee will be charged by the magazine from the consumption quota. In this part of the income, if you take out the equivalent expenses, it will be considered as your income in this part."

This one was negotiated by Shang Haozhi and Yu Chen on the way there, so there was no time to add it.

"Then this one, just add it to it?" Shen Xin didn't make any further comments, and handed the contract to Shang Haozhi.

The contract is not the final version, and he cannot sign it yet.

Compared with the contract between "Hire of the Game" and "Steel Refining", Shen Xin was obviously more concerned about the agreement.

His conditions have been put forward, but Bao Jiyi's request has not been stated, and it should be reflected in the agreement.

The length of the agreement is not very long, only 2 pages, indicating many conditions mentioned by Shen Xin, such as the exclusive agreement and the ownership of copyright, but there are also conditions. The magazine has the right to "cut" the comics.

Shen Xin understands the magazine’s idea that “cutting at the waist” is actually a stop loss. If the new comics do not bring them profits, they may not willingly accept his terms. By then, the two will fall apart, which will be good for both parties.

"I also have a condition, I hope it can be added."

"There are conditions again?" Shang Haozhi's eyelids twitched twice, a little guilty.

"Don't be nervous, it's not a big deal. I can also decide the length of the work. If I think the comics can be finished, then you can't stop it." Shen Xin put a smile away.
