"Haha, that Mr. Ye, I was wrong just now, so I would like to invite Mr. Ye for a cup of tea and apologize in person. Do you think where should we meet?" Qi Sheng said with a smile.
At this time, Qi Sheng lowered his posture and lost all the arrogance he had just now.
Qi Sheng didn't know that Ye Xuan was Shikou Xuan before, so his attitude was naturally impatient, but now he knows that unless there is something wrong with his mind, he will never be rude to Ye Xuan again.
"Oh." Ye Xuan responded, and then said: "Mr. Qi, if I remember correctly, when I came to you, you personally told me to get out."
"I think Mr. Qi should persevere. To Zhijimanke Company, I am just an insignificant person. How can I trouble Mr. Qi?"
Qi Sheng immediately became embarrassed when he heard this, and he felt very regretful in his heart. If Ye Xuan was not the author of "Douluo: Soul Continent", Qi Sheng would definitely not be so polite.
How great is the commercial value of "Douluo: Martial Spirit Continent", and he has also read this novel, so he is very clear that as long as this novel is adapted into a comic and released, it will definitely become popular all over the country.
If Ye Xuan chooses a rival company, it will be a heavy blow to Zhijimanke Company, which is why Qi Sheng is so anxious.
"Mr. Ye, I am deeply sorry for these things. Please give me a chance and I will apologize sincerely." Qi Sheng said with a low profile.
The general manager of Zhijimanke Company has a very high status, but at this moment he is so low-profile in front of Ye Xuan. There is no way, who made Ye Xuan the author of "Douluo: Spirit Continent".
The sarcastic words Ye Xuan just said were just out of anger. Now that he has almost done it, there is no need to continue to go online.
"Okay, I'll give you an hour. I'll send you the address. Come over with your contract and sincerity." Ye Xuan said, and then hung up the phone.
Qi Sheng, who was on the other side, breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Ye Xuan's reply, finally saving the matter.
"Notify me, prepare the contract immediately, I want it in half an hour." Qi Sheng immediately issued the order.
Time passed little by little, and in a coffee shop, Qi Sheng and his assistant came to Ye Xuan.
"Mr. Ye." Qi Sheng said with a smile.
Ye Xuan nodded, looked at Qi Sheng and said, "Let's keep the story short and get directly to the topic."
"Okay, okay, Mr. Ye has the final say in everything." Qi Sheng nodded.
"Mr. Qi has read "Douluo: Martial Spirit Continent". I believe you also know the commercial value of the comic adaptation of this novel. Whether our cooperation can be successful depends on whether you are sincere enough?" Ye Xuan said directly.
"Don't worry, Mr. Ye, our friend Manke Company is a very large comic company in China. We have very complete channels, and our company's artists are very powerful..." Qi Sheng started talking a lot.
.
These things are not important to Ye Xuan. What he needs is the terms in the contract. Without enough benefits, he will not hand over this novel to Zhiji Comics Company.
"Mr. Ye, this is the contract prepared by our company. You may wish to take a look. If there are any problems in it, you can raise it and we can discuss it together." Qi Sheng said with a smile, and then handed the contract to Ye Xuan.
.
Ye Xuan took the contract and slowly read it.
"Ding! The host browses the contract, and the contract identification ability +1..."
"Ding! Trigger the intermediate contract identification ability."
"Ding! The contract is being scanned and analyzed... After the scan and analysis, there are three unreasonable things:
First: Once signed, Party A authorizes Party B’s copyright for 50 years; Second, during the contract period, Party B has the right to distribute Party A’s works in any form, and the proceeds will be paid to Party A after deducting operating costs;
Three: During the contract period, Party A has no choice but to terminate the authorization to Party B for any reason.
Ye Xuan's expression became slightly solemn. These three terms were indeed unreasonable. Once he signed the contract, he would fall into the other party's trap.
"Mr. Qi, it seems that your company is really insincere. You just used this contract to fool me. It seems that the sincerity in Mr. Qi's mouth is so perfunctory." Ye Xuan shook his head and said.
"In this case, I don't think there is any need for us to cooperate."
"Mr. Ye, Mr. Ye, don't worry. This, if there is any issue, we can discuss it. Since you think it is unreasonable, then you can raise it and we can discuss it together." Qi Sheng immediately became anxious upon hearing this.
“First: Once signed, Party A authorizes Party B’s copyright for 50 years; second, during the contract period, Party B has the right to distribute Party A’s works in any form, and the proceeds will be paid to Party A after deducting operating costs;
Third: During the contract period, Party A has no choice but to terminate the authorization to Party B for any reason."
"Mr. Qi, do you think these three clauses are reasonable for me to use?"
"I just authorized the comic adaptation to you, but look at what this clause means. This is the one-overlord clause." Ye Xuan pointed it out unceremoniously.
"Uh." Qi Sheng was stunned for a moment. He didn't even know that there was such a clause in the contract.
"Don't be angry, Mr. Ye. There must be something wrong with this. It's okay. Since Mr. Ye thinks it's unreasonable, let's change it. This is a very simple matter."
"Okay, then I'll give you another chance." Ye Xuan said, and then took a pen to modify these three terms.
"Take a look. If you don't have any questions, then we can sign the contract."
Qi Sheng looked at the revised terms. He frowned, but soon relaxed and said, "Okay, let's follow Mr. Ye's revised terms."
To be honest, the revised terms were biased towards Ye Xuan, but Qi Sheng did not dare to object, let alone leave directly, because the results of "Douluo Spirit Continent" were right in front of him, which was a golden mountain.
If Qi Sheng doesn't want it, there will be a lot of people rushing to get it, and they will even offer various profit-sharing contracts to make his competitors stronger. This is something Qi Sheng cannot tolerate.
Both parties reached a unanimous consensus, so the signing process went very smoothly.
"Mr. Ye, we have a happy cooperation. Don't worry, I will definitely make this novel popular across the country and occupy the first place in the comic market." Qi Sheng said with confidence.
"Okay, then I'll look forward to this moment coming." Ye Xuan smiled, then reached out and shook hands with the other person.
The two chatted for a while and then separated. Ye Xuan walked out of the coffee shop. He smiled slightly and was in a good mood. He was quite satisfied with this trip to the imperial capital. (To be continued)
