Chapter 213 Signing a contract with this year’s first customer (4200)
Zhu Zheng called the previous call again, and Cao Shujie answered it.
As soon as he mentioned the signing of the contract, Cao Shujie asked him about such a profound topic as "Who does the copyright belong to?"
Zhu Zheng couldn't answer, so Cao Shujie pondered again and again and told him: "Editor Zhu, let's put it this way, the actors in all the videos shot by my wife are our family, so the copyright of these videos will not be sold to any party. If your company cannot
Once you do this, don’t contact us again…”
Hearing what Cao Shujie said, Zhu Zheng was a little dumbfounded, so strong?
He wanted to chat again, but Cao Shujie hung up the phone directly.
Even if Zhu Zheng called again, Cao Shujie didn't answer the phone, which made Zhu Zheng scratch his head.
When other people heard that a platform as big as theirs proposed cooperation, they were not cautious, and how could they reject it so neatly as Cao Shujie, Cheng Xiaolin and his wife.
Do you take their platform seriously?
Still don’t take making money seriously?
Zhu Zheng himself couldn't tell the difference clearly.
When Cao Shujie came down from the orchard and returned home, as soon as he entered the door, he heard Mengmeng's shouting.
"Puppy, call me again." Mengmeng shouted.
The feeling given to Cao Shujie was just like in the TV series: "Girl, give me another smile!"
Cao Shujie's mind was racing with thoughts, and he almost burst out laughing.
Fortunately, his self-control was not bad. When he walked into the yard, Cao Shujie saw her daughter Mengmeng standing in front of the kennel, staring at the five little native dogs that had been moved into the dog cage.
"Mengmeng, do you like them?" Cao Shujie asked her.
Mengmeng turned around and saw Cao Shujie, and immediately smiled: "Dad, are you back?"
"Well, do you think these five puppies are fun?" Cao Shujie pointed at the five puppies and asked.
These five puppies were a little scared when they first came to a strange environment. They came together and looked at Cao Shujie warily.
Mengmeng also saw this. She pushed her father away hard and said, "Dad, go away, they are afraid of you."
Then he patted his chest and said: "They are not afraid of me, they still like me."
When Cao Shujie heard what his daughter said, he couldn't laugh or cry. He asked, "How do you know they like you?"
Mengmeng thought about it and couldn't find a reason, and finally said ruthlessly: "I just know it anyway."
Hearing Mengmeng say this, what else could Cao Shujie say?
"Just watch for yourself here, don't touch them with your hands, be careful they bite you." Cao Shujie warned her, and then walked towards the house.
When he saw his wife, Cao Shujie told her about Zhu Zheng calling again.
"I rejected him directly." Cao Shujie said.
Cheng Xiaolin didn't care, she said: "If you refuse, just refuse, it doesn't matter!"
Look at my wife's neat and clean style, the more Cao Shujie looks at it, the more he likes it.
He asked: "Has Youku contacted you again?"
Cheng Xiaolin nodded and said, "Send me a message and ask me how I'm thinking about signing the contract."
After finishing speaking, before Cao Shujie could respond, she said: "I thought it was pretty close, so I agreed."
"Then the videos on the other two platforms must be deleted?" Cao Shujie asked.
Cheng Xiaolin nodded and said: "Sure, I originally planned to tell you about this when you come back. Later I will delete all the videos on Tudou and Ku6, and then upload them to these two platforms."
My account will be canceled and after I officially sign the contract, Youku will promote my videos."
"Are the previous videos also promoted to you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw his wife nodding: "Yes, that's what Editor Du said. This signing includes the promotion of the previous videos."
After finishing speaking, Cheng Xiaolin smiled and talked about another thing: "Shujie, what Editor Du means is that I have uploaded a total of 8 videos this month, which counts as full attendance. After signing the contract this month, there will also be a guaranteed full attendance bonus of 1,000 yuan.
.”
Hearing what his wife said, Cao Shujie suddenly felt a little emotional, the difference between people is really huge.
The editor of Youku.com is obviously a better person than the content editor of Xinku 6, Zhu Zheng.
He was very curious and asked: "What is the name of this editor-in-chief of Youku.com?"
"My online name is Xingwu, my full name is Du Wenwu." Cheng Xiaolin told her husband.
After dinner, Cheng Xiaolin was about to delete all the videos uploaded to Tudou and Ku6. Cao Shujie stopped her and said: "Honey, why don't you delete it tomorrow? Leave a message in the video today, and it will only be posted on Youku in the future."
Network update?”
But Cheng Xiaolin shook her head and said: "There is no need to do this. It is not necessary. There are only three major platforms for watching videos. When I continue to update, they will see it on Youku. If you like to watch it, just follow it.
If you don’t like to see it, it’s useless to tell you.”
For this reason, Cao Shujie did not persuade her anymore. After seeing that his wife quickly deleted all the videos on Tudou and Ku6, she even canceled her account.
At the same time, after Cheng Xiaolin deleted the videos and canceled her accounts on Tudou.com and Ku6.com, she contacted Xing Wu, the original video content editor of Youku.com, Du Wenwu, to tell him about the contract.
But because it was too late today, Du Wenwu's office had already got off work, so the signing could only be postponed to tomorrow, and Cheng Xiaolin was not far behind.
But what caught Cheng Xiaolin and Cao Shujie off guard was that after Cheng Xiaolin deleted the videos on Tudou and Ku6, someone called Cao Shujie that night and asked him why the video on Mengmeng Orchard could not be found.
The account cannot be found either.
Cao Shujie patiently explained the reason to the other party, and then told him that he could search for the Mengmeng Orchard account on Youku and watch the video.
The caller was obviously relieved and said to Cao Shujie: "I have been following your videos. You took them very well. The content is very real and heartwarming. It is not like other videos that are too exaggerated."
Already."
"By the way, is the address on your video true? If it is true, I will take my children to pick in your orchard during the Qingming Festival next month, and then go see that little guy named Mengmeng." The other party laughed.
asked.
When Cao Shujie heard the other party ask this, his heart suddenly felt different.
He happily said to the other party: "You can just come. When the time comes, it doesn't matter whether you pick or not, just eat enough first. I'll take care of that."
"Haha, okay, let's see you on Qingming Festival!" The friend, whose name was not revealed from beginning to end, ended the call with a laugh.
Until before going to bed, Cao Shujie received more than ten similar calls.
It was also at this time that Cao Shujie realized that his phone number had been recorded in the address book by many people.
When her husband answered the phone, Cheng Xiaolin kept smiling and seemed to have a sense of accomplishment.
Her purpose in posting the video from the beginning was to advertise their orchard and attract traffic, but she did not expect that after deleting the video on the other two platforms, some netizens actually called and expressed their intention to come to their orchard to pick.
That night, after putting Mengmeng to sleep, Cheng Xiaolin took the initiative and unlocked many seemingly difficult poses with her husband.
Cao Shujie was a little afraid of her.
Shame on you!
On the morning of the second day, Cheng Xiaolin and Youku completed the online contract signing. Cheng Xiaolin downloaded the electronic version of the contract and was about to print it and mail it to Youku's headquarters when editor Du Wenwu sent a picture of a handshake, followed by a message:
“Mengmeng Orchard, a pleasure to work with.”
After logging out of her QQ account, Cheng Xiaolin loaded the electronic version of the contract document on a USB flash drive and rode an electric bike to Jianhua Supermarket to print out the contract.
When printing the contract at Jianhua Supermarket, the proprietress Gao Hong asked her what it was. Cheng Xiaolin said: "This is a cooperation contract."
Gao Hong thought it was a contract for cooperation with other people in Cheng Xiaolin's orchard, and didn't look carefully.
After printing the contract in duplicate, plus a copy of her ID card, Cheng Xiaolin counted them. There were 28 in total. After paying the money, she took the contract and left.
You have to go to the post office in the town for express delivery and mail the contract out by EMS.
When she got home, Cheng Xiaolin didn't see her husband or daughter, nor did she call to inquire about them. She took the car keys and drove to town. She wanted to get this thing done quickly, as she had other work to do next.
…
At this time, Cao Shujie and his daughter Mengmeng were in the orchard to receive a special guest named Li Lianfa.
He saw the video taken by Cheng Xiaolin and drove here by himself.
When Cao Shujie received his call just now, he was very surprised and thought he heard wrongly.
I just received a batch of calls last night, all of whom planned to come to his orchard to pick on Qingming Festival or Labor Day, but I didn't expect that someone had already driven over quietly in advance.
Li Lianfa came here with a gift. When he saw Mengmeng, he smiled unconsciously and handed the gift in his hand to Mengmeng.
It was a princess doll gift box. After Mengmeng saw it, she subconsciously raised her eyebrows, with a happy expression on her little face. Two dimples appeared on her chubby little face, making her look even cuter.
But Mengmeng did not take it excitedly. She turned back to look at her father, with a questioning light in her eyes.
Cao Shujie was also hesitating, and Li Lianfa followed, "Take it, it's not a valuable thing."
"Mengmeng, thank you uncle quickly." Cao Shujie said to his daughter.
When Mengmeng heard what her father said, she understood instantly. She smiled and said, "Thank you, uncle."
"Good boy, you're welcome, take it and play with it." Li Lianfa handed the princess doll set to Mengmeng again.
Seeing Mengmeng taking the doll, holding it in her arms, and loving it, Li Lianfa also laughed.
While chatting, Cao Shujie was going to take him around the Strawberry Park. During the chat, Cao Shujie realized that Li Lianfa had made a special trip from Yiling City.
"Boss Cao, I'm from Yiling, and I happened to see your video on Ku6.com. Your video is really good, and the place is not far away, so I came over to take a look." Li Lianfa looked at it.
Everyone around them nodded: "After I came here, I realized that today's trip was worthwhile!"
"Let's go, I'll take you to see my strawberry garden." Cao Shujie went to the hut and picked up two three-pound plastic pots. He held his cute little hand in one hand and led the way, and walked towards the strawberry garden together.
.
When he saw Cao Shujie's strawberry garden, Li Lianfa matched him with the beautiful scenery he saw in the video one by one, and then found that every point matched.
This also means that every video posted under the account name "Mengmeng Orchard" is true.
Li Lianfa was filled with emotion. From the bottom of his heart, he liked this place a little bit.
When he saw the cows raised in the north, Li Lianfa asked him doubtfully: "Boss Cao, are they yours over there too?"
"Well, this part of the mountain belongs to me." Cao Shujie was filled with pride.
The more than 200 acres of mountain land in the orchard on the mountain were slowly developed by him bit by bit.
Hearing Cao Shujie's heartfelt pride, Li Lianfa was also affected: "It's great. I want to take over such a mountainous area and live the life of a leisurely cloud and wild crane."
Cao Shujie did not answer Li Lianfa's words. He said: "Even though my place is not big, it cost me a lot of money to do it all."
When Li Lianfa heard what Cao Shujie said, he wondered, isn't more than 200 acres of mountainous land big enough?
Li Lianfa was also curious about how much money Cao Shujie invested in this place, but he did not take the initiative to ask.
It was Cao Shujie who said: "I took care of the whole area, including the infrastructure, and then planted these flower plants, fruit saplings, calves, water, electricity, roads, etc., and installed sprinkler and drip irrigation equipment.
It cost me nearly 3 million in total."
"..." Li Lianfa never expected that he would need so much money.
At the same time, he also put away his contempt for Cao Shujie, and was still feeling emotional that this young man in front of him, who was about the same age as him, turned out to be a real invisible rich man.
From Li Lianfa's point of view, he thought he would only invest six or seven hundred thousand to break the sky, but the result exceeded his imagination by four or five times.
Because of this, he immediately gave up the idea of contracting mountain land, and he couldn't afford it at all.
Cao Shujie bent down and picked a dozen red strawberries, put them in a small pot, and handed them to Li Lianfa: "How about you try my strawberries?"
Li Lianfa expressed his gratitude to Cao Shujie, took the small basin, picked up a strawberry and put it into his mouth.
Very sweet and a little sour.
Li Lianfa could accept the sweet and sour taste, but what surprised him even more was that he tasted the strawberry like he had when he was a child.
He chewed up one strawberry in one bite and swallowed it. Li Lianfa then picked up the second strawberry and put it into his mouth and ate it slowly. He was sure that this was the strawberry he had eaten when he was a child.
That unique strawberry scent is unforgettable.
Cao Shujie looked at Li Lianfa's intoxicated look and said, "My strawberries are not fully ripe yet. If it takes another five or six days, the strawberries you eat will taste better than now."
"Boss Cao, to be honest, your unripe strawberries are already much more delicious than the strawberries I buy in the market." Li Lianfa frowned in thought, as if he was organizing his words, and then said: "How should I say,
I bought a lot of strawberries in the market today, but they don’t taste like strawberries at all, but your strawberries, Boss Cao, are different..."
"Yeah, that's grown in a greenhouse and has a short exposure to sunlight. Mine is grown in the open air and has a longer exposure to sunlight. In addition, my strawberry matures naturally."
This was enough, but Li Lianfa heard the hidden meaning in Cao Shujie's words. Some strawberries may have been deliberately ripened.
Li Lianfa ate 5 strawberries in one breath, and then followed Cao Shujie to look elsewhere in the orchard. He saw small white flowers on the kiwi fruit trees, and thought that strawberries that were not yet fully mature could be so delicious. He was so impressed by Cao Shujie's orchard.
I’m also looking forward to the kiwi fruit inside.
