Chen Li immediately understood the importance of this matter, which would also allow Yaohua Creative to take the domestic literary publishing industry to a new level.
Even though Yaohua Creative is the largest literary product company in China, Yaohua Creative is very weak in the field of literary publishing. The biggest industry of Yaohua Creative is online literature and literary IP incubation, but only in the field of pure literature.
It has been suppressed by several major domestic publishing houses. The reason is that there are too few pure literary copyrights.
If we can win the Emmons Press this time, it can be said to be a big step forward in terms of pure literary copyright. Moreover, Yaohua Creative will become the only domestic publisher of many popular European literatures. This alone
, can directly reverse the decline of these years.
"Boss, don't worry, I'll arrange it right away. When will you need this information?"
"It's best to sort it out tomorrow. I'll contact Emmons later and I'll let you know what exactly is needed."
After that, Chen Li hurriedly left the office and began to arrange work.
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Muyou contacted Gu Li again, exchanged some pleasantries, and then went straight to the topic, expressing Yaohua Cultural and Creative's intention to cooperate.
However, this Mr. Gu Li seems to be very cunning. He was obviously having a feud with Xiao Muyou just a second ago and was reminiscing about the past, but when it comes to work matters, he has a business-like attitude.
Xiao Muyou also expressed the sincerity of Yaohua Cultural Creation on the phone, but Gu Li never gave a clear response. He only said that cooperation needs to be discussed slowly, but in short, he never gave a precise word.
Xiao Muyou chatted for a while and almost figured out Gu Li's attitude. Although he didn't explicitly say that this cooperation would work, at least he didn't refuse it flatly.
The most important thing is that Xiao Muyou captured an important piece of information during the chat. Wenhua Publishing House is indeed following up on the renewal of the cooperation.
With this information, Xiao Muyou felt a little uncertain, but she was not the kind of person who could give up easily. In the end, she gave Yaohua Cultural and Creative Industries an opportunity to meet and discuss in detail.
"Mr. Gu Li, in order to show our sincerity at Yaohua Cultural and Creative Industries, I would like to meet you in person."
"Mu You, of course it's okay to meet, but I'm afraid it will have to wait until the end of next month."
When Xiao Muyou heard this, didn't this agree with her? Originally, she thought that if Gu Li really agreed to meet, she would fly to England tonight so that she could get back before going to Sichuan Province. She just made an agreement with Lei Yan
I'm afraid things will be delayed for a while.
But now, Xiao Muyou doesn't have to worry so much. It's just a good time to find out what happened to Emmons and Wenhua Publishing House? Maybe it can play a decisive role at a critical moment.
After chatting with Gu Li for almost half an hour, Xiao Muyou hung up the phone, and then she called Chen Li in again.
"Go check one thing. What happened between Wenhua Publishing House and Emmons? I learned about it. Wenhua Publishing House and Emmons have been cooperating for more than six years. It stands to reason that it would be difficult to cooperate for such a long time.
The cooperation may have been canceled suddenly, what must have happened?”
"Boss, I have heard some rumors, but I don't know if they are true or false?"
Chen Li remembered the gossip he had heard from his friends before and started talking. Xiao Muyou immediately became interested.
"Oh, tell me."
"There are rumors that Wenhua Publishing House stole sales, but this is just a rumor and there is no substantial evidence. Moreover, Emmons has kept it secret, so I don't know if this is true."
Hearing this, Xiao Muyou sneered. This kind of sales theft is not uncommon in the publishing industry, especially when publishing houses cooperate with leading writers.
Because top writers with higher sales will receive higher royalties. In order to make more money, publishers will take desperate risks. Of course, this kind of thing is generally not done too much, and it is also an industry
Everyone knows the secret, so no one will really make a big deal out of it.
Of course, there are also some publishing houses that have made trouble. Last year, one publishing house went too far and was directly exposed by the author's fans, and that fan was said to be a computer expert.
So don’t offend fans, because no one knows how powerful fans are. Maybe there is a very powerful little fan behind an unknown little writer.
At this time, when Xiao Muyou heard Chen Li's words, she didn't think it was just a rumor. This kind of thing could not come out of nowhere. However, this matter was definitely a good thing for Yaohua Cultural Creation, because Yaohua Cultural Creation was
In this regard, we can definitely be called the conscience of the industry and will never take advantage of such small things.
"Okay, you go check it out. What I want is definite evidence. If this thing is true, then I am 90% sure of taking over Emmons Publishing House."
Xiao Muyou thought for a while and felt that the cooperation with Emmons could not wait until she came back from Sichuan Province to start, so she said to Chen Li again.
"In this way, you don't want to go to Sichuan Province this time. You will stay and be responsible for contacting Emmons Publishing House. We don't have to talk about cooperation every time. Let's get close first and build the relationship.
The fight is ready, and we will implement the cooperation after I come back."
When Chen Li heard this, he immediately quit. There were not enough people to participate in the charity activities this time. Originally, their team had ten people, but yesterday someone's mother was seriously ill, so she had to ask for leave and go back. Now they are
Nine people. If she doesn't go, there will only be eight people. The manpower is too tight.
"Boss, no, our team is already missing one person. If I don't go, there will be even fewer people, and you will be too busy."
Chen Li refused directly. Xiao Muyou frowned after hearing this.
"This opportunity is rare. I don't want to hear the news about the continued cooperation between Emmons and Wenhua after returning from Sichuan Province. Chen Li, this is a very rare opportunity for Yaohua Cultural and Creative Industries. If you miss it,
I don’t know when the next time will be.”
"Boss, I understand, but charity activities are equally important. Why don't you let Jiang Bo be responsible for the early contact with Emmons Publishing House?"
Jiang Bo is the vice president of Yaohua Cultural and Creative Industries, but he has always been responsible for the company's internal operations.
Xiao Muyou was a little hesitant. It wasn't that she didn't believe Jiang Bo. After all, he was able to sit in the position of vice president of the company. He was by no means an ordinary person. It was just that Jiang Bo was that kind of literary young man. In other words, he was too upright and lacked business.
Smoothness on the field.
Seeing Xiao Muyou's hesitation, Chen Li said again.
"Boss, it's just some preliminary contact work anyway. Nothing will happen to Mr. Jiang. I can make preparations with Mr. Jiang these days."
Seeing Chen Li's persistence, Xiao Muyou thought for a moment and finally nodded.
Fortunately, Yaohua Cultural and Creative Industries is different from other industries. Compared with those conspiracies and intrigues, there are fewer intrigues.
"Okay, you and Jiang Bo will talk about it later."
After that, Chen Li left the office.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, half an hour later than the original get off work time, Xiao Muyou finished the work at hand and went downstairs.
As soon as she got out of the elevator, she saw the black car parked at the door, and she walked over quickly.
"How long have you been here? Why didn't you call me?"
Xiao Muyou just sent a message to Lei Yan when he went downstairs. Logically speaking, Lei Yan would not have arrived downstairs at the company so quickly, unless this guy had been here a long time ago.
Lei Yan helped Xiao Muyou open the car door and waited until both of them got in the car before answering her question.
"Just wait for a while and go home."
After saying that, Lei Yan drove away from the company building. He was stuck in traffic and stopped and walked, and finally returned to Jinxi Garden at about 6:30.
Lei Yan drove the car all the way to the door of his house, and Xiao Muyou was stunned for a moment.
"Xin'er has been thinking about you these past two days, so I'm eating here tonight."
Lei Yan explained, Xiao Muyou did not object, nodded, and then got out of the car with Lei Yan.
"By the way, I happened to get some tickets for the Kyoto Orchestra's concert yesterday. I'll give them to your sister later."
With that said, Xiao Muyou took out two tickets from his bag. They were VIP seats, definitely the best seats.
Lei Yan took it, then took Xiao Muyou's hand and said.
"Then let me thank you in advance for Xin'er. Come into the house quickly."
