Huayu Ye Qingjie

At 08:30 the next day, Zhong Yunqing and his editor in charge met in the hotel lobby and went to the starting point's office together.

However, with full expectations, I stepped into the office area of ​​the starting point.To be honest, even though he had imagined many versions of the scale of the first-generation starting point in his mind, he was still dazed by the scene in front of him.

Inside is a rented two-room apartment.In a large single room, a small office area is separated by a screen, and there are seven or eight desktop computers inside. There is a coffee table and a few chairs in the living room by the window, which should be a place to receive guests.

Then another small room should be the office.The door is ajar, and only some simple tables and chairs can be seen... Could it be the office and the meeting room together?

This is known as the sacred place in the Internet circle, the original office of the starting point...

This place is probably less than [-] square meters, just a small studio.But who can imagine that such an ordinary place will grow into the largest genuine reading platform in China in the future, bar none. (The starting point for flying rupees is still quite different.)

To be honest, if Zhong Yunqing hadn't come from later generations, he would know the future achievements of this company!Maybe they turned around and ran away the first time they entered!After all, people with normal thinking may feel that they have been brought to the secret den of a pyramid scheme...

Immediately afterwards, He Guoting introduced him to a young man wearing glasses.There were originally five entrepreneurial veterans at the starting point, but the other four have all gone to run business, leaving only one left behind.

"Hi, I'm Raleigh."

The other party first extended his hand to say hello.After all, this novel by Zhong Yunqing has contributed to the complete consolidation of Qidian's payment model.As the website manager, he still needs to express his gratitude to the author who turned the tide like this.

"I'm Zhong Yunqing, and I'm very happy to grow up with you."

Probably seeing Zhong Yunqing's previous thoughts, He Luoli didn't care about his expression, glanced around, and then explained with a smile:

"This place looks a bit shabby, but the number of views of our website has increased significantly every day. You don't have to worry that continuing to cooperate with us will affect g's subsequent revenue."

"No, you are overthinking. I know that many great companies started from scratch! So what I just said is the truth. I think it is very enjoyable to grow up from such an environment with you. thing!"

No matter what he said is true or false, after all, he is now the signing author of Qidian.Raleigh also showed him the utmost kindness.

This is the benefit of the head author, even if it is the boss, he needs to be polite to you.

"Sit over there first. The people from the publishing house will arrive in a while. We have also negotiated the details of the contract. You can confirm it later and just sign it."

Then he invited Zhong Yunqing to go to the tea table together, and made and poured tea by himself, showing the utmost courtesy.

"This kind of famous scene where one of the five supreme gods at the starting point pours tea may be the only time in this life!"

Zhong Yunqing thought unscrupulously.

Of course, if he wanted to go back and think about it, he would never forget the business.

In fact, Zhong Yunqing has never published a book regardless of his past and present lives, so naturally he doesn't know the way to publish a book.

When he received the news that the book could be serialized, he had fully authorized the Qidian website to discuss with the other party in detail.Because the money earned also has a share, the other party will definitely do their best to do this matter.He will not do things that he does not know and pretend to understand.

When Zhong Yunqing signed the serialization contract, there was a stipulation that both parties would share [-]-[-] of the proceeds.

In other words, Zhong Yunqing wrote the book at the starting point, and the website was responsible for helping to promote it.In the future, whether it is subscription revenue or future publication of physical books, the starting point will be 50.00% of the publishing revenue.

This is what it should mean. After all, without the promotion of the website, even if Zhong Yunqing writes well, no one will be able to see it. A [-]-[-] split is not unacceptable.

(I can’t find the terms of the previous physical book publishing. This is the current contract terms. The newcomer writers and the website are divided into [-] and [-], and the gods seem to be [-] to [-]. The novel is not so rigorous. Just read it.)

Although it is left to the other party to discuss, after all, it involves his own income, Zhong Yunqing certainly will not be a hand-off shopkeeper.He took a sip of tea before looking at Raleigh and asking:

"Mr. Luo, what's the asking price for the first serialization of the other party?"

Raleigh adjusted his glasses before replying:

"Because your serialized chapters are only 35 words, and the other party initially offered only 8 yuan for the first book. After two rounds of negotiations, we finally reached [-] yuan. This income will be written in black and white in the contract. We don't take kickbacks. You You can rest assured."

When it comes to money, brothers have to settle accounts clearly, and Luo Li should explain the situation first, so as to avoid Zhong Yunqing's misunderstanding and affect the follow-up cooperation.

Seeing Zhong Yunqing's calm expression, he continued:

"However, since the first volume is just a test of the waters, we think the price is very reasonable based on the follow-up reading situation. If the subsequent follow-up reading is better than the current one, we will revisit the other party in the next volume of the series. Negotiate the price of the follow-up work carefully. You can rest assured that it involves the interests of both of us, and we will do this with our hearts."

"Okay, I know."

Zhong Yunqing nodded slightly after listening to his explanation.

"One hundred thousand!"

After silently reading this number in his heart, Zhong Yunqing couldn't help but be filled with emotion!

Liu Sisi is a rookie actor, and the salary for a female lead TV series is only 30.The first volume of his novel was only 5 words, and he earned [-] yuan once it was published! ([-] to [-] points)

Thinking about it is really enjoyable!

In fact, for a newcomer, the price is quite reasonable.Because the current online novel is to publish the paper version first, and then spread it in various book rental stores.Publishers need to look at the final number of printed copies to judge subsequent revenue.

For Zhong Yunqing, the first volume of his book was published, and how much money he earned was secondary, the main thing was to quickly open up the situation!You must know that in future generations, a high-quality pseudonym is the greatest guarantee of income!

As long as the physical book is successfully published, the author name "Big Zongzi" will be accepted by more readers as the number of readers continues to increase!In this way, when he opens new books in the future, the scores of various novels will gradually increase.

You must know that time and good ideas are the most precious for reborns!In contrast, money is nothing!

"Hey, Guoting, you're on duty again today, and you've become a lot prettier recently..."

Zhong Yunqing was discussing details with Luo Li when he heard a male voice greet his editor from the other side of the screen.

Xunsheng looked over, it was a little fat man.Hmm, this guy seems a little familiar.

Then he vaguely thought of the second "Canopy" that He Guoting talked with him about to be published as a physical book, combined with this person's appearance.

Well, isn't this the Toad Giant when he was young!

This guy was praised as the number one traffic in the topic section of the Internet by the authors of Zhihu in later generations!But these are not ridicules, but genuine respect, because he is the ancient giant who likes to support newcomers the most.He answered all questions of those who rushed to the street, and also provided a lot of explanations.

The usefulness of these ideas varies from person to person, but his willingness to help others still needs to be affirmed.

It turns out that when Toad was young, he was still a little fat...

Zhong Yunqing smiled involuntarily.

After a while, the young Toad walked over on his own.He greeted Raleigh first, then sat on the chair opposite Zhong Yunqing, and then stretched out his hand:

"Hello, I'm Wang Chao. I heard that you are the author of "Infinite Film and Television Style"?"

"Well, hello. I'm Zhong Yunqing. If you like, you can also call me Da Zongzi!"

Zhong Yunqing watched him extend his hand to say hello, stood up and smiled, and shook hands with him in response.

Hearing the other party asked him to call "big zongzi", Wang Chao continued with a grin:

"Your book is very good, and the idea is very good! We have the opportunity to sit together and chat."

Of course it’s good to be creative, this is an infinite flow, hey!This theme has been popular in later generations for more than ten years, and it is still prosperous!

But after all, it is plagiarizing Z's big idea, and Zhong Yunqing is not that kind of arrogant character.Started a mature man's business exchange with the other party:

"Where is it? I also read your canopy vertical and horizontal. The style of writing is very peculiar. It is a rare masterpiece among Xiuxian novels. It is very enjoyable to watch!"

"Okay, you two, stop boasting to each other, my teeth are sore from hearing it." Raleigh interjected at the right time, interrupting the embarrassing exchange between the two of them.

Half an hour later, people from the publishing house came over with the contract. Zhong Yun read it carefully, and was assured that there was nothing wrong with the numbers and other things, so he picked up a pen and signed it.

As the saying goes: wait an hour, sign the contract for 5 minutes.

Coming out of the starting point, Zhong Yunqing met Ha Moju who was going to pick up the car again.His car is a Zongshen motorcycle.

Now that the two have gotten to know each other, and they are both publishing books together as the facade of the starting point, it is certainly worth going for a drink together.

"It's rare to know such an interesting person as you, why don't I treat you to dinner today!"

Although his words were serious, Zhong Yunqing still wanted to laugh for no reason.

However, he responded on the spot:

"Okay, then I won't be polite to you! Please treat me this time, and I will treat you when we meet later!"

Looking at Zhong Yunqing's pure eyes, Toad Ju thought in his heart:

I'll just be polite, you kid won't refuse!Even if you are polite and polite before you say please, I will readily agree!really...

Zhong Yunqing didn't care what he thought!

After all, in the Internet circles of later generations, the legend of him, the great god of rubbing food, is circulating!Which great god and which platinum meal did you catch today, and which emerging great god did you catch tomorrow...

To be honest, I have never heard of him taking the initiative to invite people to dinner!Since he is so "graciously invited" now, of course he can't do without face!

And in the Internet circle of later generations, there is an unwritten saying:

Toad Ju is a human-shaped "Great God Appraiser", and the author who can eat with him in later generations will either become a platinum or a great god in the end!

In short, anyone who can have dinner with him is the talent of the Internet literary circle, without exception!

At this point, he didn't say any more disappointing words.

"Well, who made us two "Peerless Twins" at the starting point now! Let's go, have a drink or two."

Zhong Yunqing also got on his motorcycle, and the two went straight to find a place to drink.

To be honest, he didn't expect that when he first came to Yanjing, he would have a meal with the "Great God Appraiser" who loves to eat a lot!

No one may believe it, but it really is a good sign!

But this kind of emotion seems a bit redundant in front of the reborn!Isn't it just a meal for Toad!

Just keep writing, I believe that within a few years, those readers who like to read his books will also call him Zongzi Ju! (Hey hey, Crayon Shinchan's laughter.)
