Change always starts from very small places.
There are already two people around Wen Ying who have tried to pick up the pen and write again, one is Song Foxiang, and the other is her biological father Wen Dongrong.
Two middle-aged men, a greasy poet and a veteran office worker, the trivial life has worn away their former passion, but when they reach middle age, they are awakened by "responsibility" and they both want to make more money.
Making money is not about being greedy for money, and making money is not vulgar. Money can solve many conflicts in life.
The money can allow Song Foxiang's daughter Song Chan to live a better life abroad, allow Wen Dongrong to continue to support poor students to meet their spiritual needs, and also improve Wen Dongrong's status in the family. Recently, Wen Dongrong feels more and more that he is not needed at home. His wife can make more money than him, and his daughter can make more money. His sense of existence is too weak!
If his income could increase, could this situation change?
For example, he can contribute part of the mortgage for the two houses in Shanghai.
For example, Chen Ru has outstanding performance in the bank. It is more convenient for her to have a car that is completely at her disposal when she goes out to discuss business and commute to get off work.
After Wen Dongrong was transferred to Chengdu to work, he no longer had to commute between the two places every day. He once suggested giving the second-hand car that Wen Ying bought for him to Chen Ru, but Chen Ru refused.
Wen Dongrong thought about it and it made sense. It didn’t matter if she drove an old car while working in a government agency, but it was different when working in a bank. He should buy Chen Ru a new car.
Chen Ru is very capable and can buy it without Wen Dongrong spending money, but if Wen Dongrong can pay part of the money, Chen Ru will not refuse!
And there is Hei Xin Mian's daughter. When he gives Hei Xin Mian some pocket money every month, how can Hei Xin Mian not respect him?
As a man who has already handed over all his salary, Lao Wen urgently needs a part-time job that can earn money legally and in compliance with regulations.
Once he made up his mind, Wen Dongrong was very proactive. Before he started writing, he collected some newspapers and magazines, analyzed which ones were the types he could write, and which newspapers and magazines paid high royalties... This move coincided with Wen Ying's initial submission to the magazine. They were indeed father and daughter.
Wen Ying, who didn't get Wen Dongrong's brain waves, came to Rongcheng Publishing House on her own.
Yuan Fenghui arrived earlier than her and waited downstairs without going upstairs.
"Teacher Yuan."
Yuan Fenghui looked Wen Ying up and down and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, quite energetic."
After the two signed the agency contract, Yuan Fenghui and Wen Ying had a serious discussion about daily wear.
Needless to say, in school, students can wear whatever they want, and school uniforms are the safest and least error-prone option.
As for what Wen Ying should wear outside of school, Yuan Fenghui will arrange everything if there are activities, and Wen Ying will need to take care of it herself if there are no activities.
There is no need to dress too ostentatiously or wear luxury goods. Yuan Fenghui hopes that Wen Ying can pay attention to her image management when going out. Neatness and cleanliness are the first conditions, and it would be better if she pays a little attention to the overall matching.
Be sure to avoid being sloppy and untidy, because Wen Ying is already a public figure and can easily be recognized by passers-by when going out.
It's not that Yuan Fenghui is harsh and requires Wen Ying to always maintain a perfect image in front of outsiders. This is just the basic quality of a public figure... Wen Ying agrees with Yuan Fenghui's concept. Not to mention public figures, ordinary girls also have emergencies when they go out without washing their hair. At this time, wearing a hat will make girls feel much more at ease!
Wen Ying smiled and said, "How can I not be alert when dealing with Editor-in-Chief Bao?"
Yuan Fenghui also laughed.
The old fox and the little fox looked at each other, and there was a tacit understanding in their eyes.
Bao Lixin had been waiting in the office for quite a long time. As soon as Wen Ying entered, she saw Xiao Niu was there too.
I don’t know what Bao Lixin and Xiao Niu talked about before. Xiao Niu lowered his head and didn’t want to talk.
Compared with his previous avoidance, this time Editor-in-Chief Bao was very enthusiastic. He invited Wen Ying and Yuan Fenghui to take a seat, and served tea and drinks. The whole process was as smooth and natural as flowing water.
It turns out that Editor-in-Chief Bao is not impolite, his politeness is very flexible!
"Hurry up and sit down."
"I'm so sorry. I just started working at the publishing house and there's a lot of work that I haven't sorted out. I just got back from a business trip and immediately urged my staff to compile the sales data for the two books "Teenage Idol" and "Star River and You". Don't worry, we will pay the royalties for the two books for the last quarter as quickly as possible."
As Bao Lixin spoke, he took out two settlement lists and handed them to Wen Ying and Yuan Fenghui respectively.
From August 1 to October 31, 2006, "Teenage Idol" was on the market for the fifth quarter, and it sold 1.744 million copies. Wen Ying should have received royalties of 1.744 million before tax.
"More than the fourth quarter?"
Wen Ying was a little surprised.
Before Bao Lixin could say anything, Yuan Fenghui answered, "Because of the boost from 'Star River With You' and the book signing events you held in five cities, the sales figures have surpassed those of the fourth quarter. I had anticipated this, and I would have been surprised if the sales figures hadn't increased!"
The hot sales of best-selling books have cycles. The hottest period of "Teen Idol" has passed, and the peak of selling more than 700,000 copies in a quarter will not appear again. However, due to various reasons, there will be small peaks from time to time.
Although the agency rights of "Teenage Idol" do not belong to Yuan Fenghui, Wen Ying does not have to share the profits with Yuan Fenghui no matter how many copies of the book are sold. Yuan Fenghui still hopes that the total sales of "Teenage Idol" can be higher!
"Yes, the fourth quarter data showed an increase. The subject matter of this book is popular in the market. Old readers have read it and new readers are constantly pouring in. Xiaoyu really has strength."
Bao Lixin did not miss any opportunity to interrupt. Wen Ying smiled but did not say anything, and Yuan Fenghui was too lazy to pay attention to him.
