The most popular and richest writer in China?
This title sounds very attractive.
Wen Ying was so excited that she almost agreed immediately. However, at the critical moment, her rationality came to her and she changed her tone:
"Teacher Yuan, I can't make the decision on this matter alone. I need to discuss it with my family."
Yuan Fenghui was amused by Wen Ying.
Discuss it with your family?
If Wen Ying's parents hadn't filed a defamation lawsuit against Han Qin, they probably wouldn't have known that their daughter had written and published a novel!
Yuan Fenghui dared to say that even now, Wen Ying still hid many things from her parents, such as spending 10 million to invest in Tianjiao... Normal parents would at least ask about their daughter's holdings in a company when they were still in high school, but Wen Ying's parents never asked, which meant they just didn't know.
Parents are sometimes obstacles on the road to freedom for minors, and sometimes they are the best shield for minors to refuse others!
Yuan Fenghui saw through it but didn't say anything. She smiled and nodded, "Okay, you can discuss it with your family slowly. I've waited for so long, so it doesn't matter if I wait a few more days."
Yuan Fenghui was very sure that Wen Ying would sign a contract with her. After Yuan Fenghui met Bao Lixin alone, she became even more confident!
Because Bao Lixin is really not a very reasonable person.
This person may have made certain achievements in his professional field, but he carries the halo of the past and is extremely arrogant, which makes Yuan Fenghui look down on him.
——You should be proud of your achievements, but not arrogant!
A person's career is related to his own strength and the industry trends. Bao Lixin caught up with the golden age of the mainland publishing industry. In such a trend, as long as you enter the industry early and are not as stupid as a pig, you can always achieve some results.
Yuan Fenghui didn't even need to mention the publication of "Xun Yong", which was a collaboration between Wen Ying and the publishing house.
Not to mention Wen Ying, Tianjiao still has cooperation with the publishing house. The copyright of "Galaxy With You" agreed upon with the publishing house is 12%. Now it is time to settle the royalties for the first season, but Bao Lixin is far less straightforward than Zou Weijun.
At the end of the conversation, Yuan Fenghui smiled:
"Our company doesn't really need this kind of money, but I heard that when Chief Editor Zou was still here, your publishing house was very quick to calculate book sales, and royalties were settled every three months without delay. Now that Chief Editor Zou has left, have all her former colleagues also left?"
Can’t the literary and art publishing house pay the royalties for “Starry Sky and You”?
Of course I can!
Bao Lixin said that the data for the first season of "Star River With You" has not been counted yet, and Yuan Fenghui is not easy to fool.
It was obvious that both parties were cooperating on an equal footing, but as a result of Bao Lixin's actions, the publishing house became the superior Party A. Yuan Fenghui was unwilling to agree to this, and her words in front of Bao Lixin gradually became sarcastic.
Can’t count how many copies have been sold?
Zou Weijun can do the statistics.
Unless Bao Lixin admits in front of Yuan Fenghui that his ability is inferior to Zou Weijun!
There was a hint of mockery in Yuan Fenghui's eyes and eyebrows, and Bao Lixin felt a surge of anger in his heart.
"Director Yuan, you're joking. How about this, Director Yuan, give me three more days. After three days, I will definitely have someone compile the sales data for 'Star River and You'."
"Okay, then I'll wait for Chief Editor Bao. Oh, and don't forget to have the statistics for 'Teenage Idol' compiled. These two books are by the same author. There's no reason why they can compile sales data for one but not the other, right?"
Bao Lixin was displeased, "Director Yuan, Teenage Idol has nothing to do with Tianjiao."
From the sound of it, Bao Lixin really wants to use the royalties from "Teenage Idol" to control Wen Ying?
Yuan Fenghui smiled and said, "The copyright has nothing to do with Tianjiao, but the author does. To be honest with Editor-in-Chief Bao, I've been trying to sign an agency contract with Wen Ying, wanting to handle her copyright matters. Wen Ying has never agreed before, but this time... I have to thank Editor-in-Chief Bao!"
If Bao Lixin hadn't caused trouble, Wen Ying would have given Yuan Fenghui no chance, so Yuan Fenghui thanked Bao Lixin.
As for why Yuan Fenghui said this in front of Bao Lixin, this was also Yuan Fenghui putting pressure on Bao Lixin, warning Bao Lixin not to use Wen Ying as a sacrifice to establish his authority. Even if Bao Lixin only regarded Wen Ying as a minor who was easy to fool, he should have thought about the adults who were not easy to fool standing behind Wen Ying!
Yuan Fenghui could have chosen not to say this, or even continued to add fuel to the fire, allowing Bao Lixin to severely harass Wen Ying. Only then would Yuan Fenghui stand up to help Wen Ying, allowing Wen Ying to realize the value of hiring her as her agent - why didn't Yuan Fenghui do this?
Because there is no need.
Wen Ying is not as easy to fool as Li Mengjiao.
Li Mengjiao was looking for an agent based on her intuition. Wen Ying was so smart, and this could only be accomplished if she was willing to find an agent. Any small calculation would have a counterproductive effect on Wen Ying.
Before leaving, Yuan Fenghui looked at Bao Lixin with sympathy.
It's really funny that Editor-in-Chief Bao is trying to assert his authority without even knowing Wen Ying.
While Yuan Fenghui was talking to Editor-in-Chief Bao, Xiao Niu was also trying to find a solution for Wen Ying.
Xiao Niu thinks that "Xun Yong" does not need to be changed.
What’s the point if the authors have lost their creative autonomy?
"Don't be afraid, Xiaoyu! As long as you're dead set on changing, there's nothing Chief Editor Bao can do to you. He's the new chief editor, and he forced out the publishing house's best-selling author not long after he arrived. He can't explain this to the higher-ups!"
Xiao Niu is no longer a newcomer in the workplace and has experience in dealing with difficulties posed by his superiors.
Wen Ying is a popular writer whose book has sold more than 2 million copies. The new leader Bao Lixin made the popular writer so angry that she terminated the contract. Bao Lixin may have to leave immediately, not to mention establishing his authority!
It would be foolish to cut down the original cash cow without achieving any results!
