Wang Qinghe stared at the report in front of him with a deep expression.
Their company now has two copyright editors. One is Editor Su, and the other is the Guomu editor who was previously responsible for Ding Wei's manuscripts.
There is also an editor-in-chief who is responsible for the internal affairs of the website. He is not good at copyright, so he naturally takes off on Saturdays and Sundays.
There are no working days for copyright editors. They can come when they have time. So in order to be worthy of his salary, Editor Su came to the company on Saturdays when he was not in the editorial office.
These two editors have outstanding achievements. Although they have only joined the company for a short time, stimulated by high bonuses and commissions, they have now signed five publishing contracts for their novels.
Under this premise, their new round of website promotion is already underway.
…
After all, in the hot summer, so many students have nothing to do. Why not listen to the chicken soup that makes a book a god, and go to the website to register as an author and try it.
New authors invite friends to help them, and ask friends to collect clicks and collections for them. New authors are ready to give themselves rewards to make their results more outstanding. If the new author is particularly talented, he can really write a book.
Become a god...
All in all, this wave of websites is not a loss.
Besides, they did not make any false publicity, and indeed five novels have signed publishing contracts.
Among them, three are in traditional Chinese and two are in simplified Chinese. The prices range from high to low. In today's online literature industry, they are already quite famous.
But there is no need to elaborate further.
Anyway, for people today, the word "publishing" is enough to attract them.
His strategy clearly worked, and the site saw another surge in readers and writers during the holidays.
but!
…
After all, Editor Su has a big money gap now, so he is more cautious in the company. Now he comes to the website on Saturday, when other editors are off work, and he is still following up on his novels in detail:
"Mr. Wang, is there any problem?"
What he submitted was a novel that was the focus of a new round of follow-up. According to his habit, if Mr. Wang had no objection to the approximate price he proposed, he would follow the list and discuss it in detail.
But for some reason, Mr. Wang stared at the book titles for a long time from the moment he put the list up and said nothing.
This made Editor Su feel a little anxious - after all, he was the owner of a private website. If he had any new ideas, he could just put them forward directly.
Besides, the price is not outrageous and is within the current industry level.
Editor Su is different from Guomu. Once negotiated with Guomu, the price will be slightly higher. She seems to want to build reputation and take the high-quality route.
But Editor Su himself relies on quantity to win, and advocates quickly gaining fame and attracting more outstanding authors.
Last month, thanks to the four novels he signed, he received 30,000 yuan in bonuses alone, which solved his family's urgent needs.
This also made him more motivated.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that the market is booming and people's spiritual needs are gradually emerging.
…
Wang Qinghe pointed at the list with his finger, holding back all the words in his mouth, but still couldn't say them out.
However, Editor Su had been working for so many years and had already developed the ability to observe people's emotions. Now he asked thoughtfully:
"Mr. Wang, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask. This is just a proposal at the moment. The specific follow-up will be decided based on the specific situation."
"If you tell me, I can check for any leaks and fill them in, and follow up at any time."
Wang Qinghe was silent for a long time.
"Does the book "My Life in the Ocean" have no potential?"
He had been holding back this question for a long time.
Wang Qinghe, whose pen name is Kunpeng, is famous for his masterpiece: "My Life in the Ocean".
He has been thinking about this issue since May when Guomu submitted his copyright proposal for the first time.
——Why don’t you have yourself?
It's already August now.
His endurance has also run out.
…
Once the words are spoken now, it becomes much easier to say something else.
He even felt a little resentful: "You see, although my updates are a little slow, the quality of my novels is fine! There are die-hard fans who give me rewards every month, and there are a lot of comments."
"Of course." He coughed dryly: "I'm not doing it to make money, the main thing is... you know."
Editor Su:……
That's really understandable, just earn some face.
…
Wang Qinghe didn't know what he was complaining about.
"My income is not low. Why are all the novels ranked lower than mine on this list, but my novel is not mentioned?"
"You can't treat me differently just because I'm the boss!"
This resentful attitude...
Editor Su was so confused that he couldn't help laughing.
As the editor-in-chief, in order to better follow up on the contract, they have the right to see some information on the writer's backend.
Moreover, Mr. Wang was actually quite proud and inadvertently revealed that he was also writing novels on the website.
From top to bottom in the entire company, there is no one who has not read his masterpiece!
But reading is reading, and writing well is indeed good. There is one thing -
Editor Su cleared his throat:
"Your work is certainly excellent."
…
Wang Qinghe interrupted him:
"Don't talk about my works, and don't use these polite words. I'm asking as a reader."
"You also know that I am not short of money, but I just want to know what the shortcomings are. Why are there so many copyright follow-up expressions of interest, but not my copy?"
Everyone in the top 20 is listed.
"Of course..." He smoothed the broken hair on his forehead again at this moment and said reservedly:
"I don't ask this to take advantage of my authority, and I don't mean to put pressure on you. Don't get me wrong. I just want to hear the answer."
…
Editor Su did not misunderstand.
The entire company knows Wang Qinghe's temper. In fact, most of the time he has a good temper. As long as he doesn't make mistakes, he is very easy-going at other times.
Of course, if you are incompetent at what you do, there is no need to say more.
When asked this question at this moment, Editor Su felt quite complicated.
He endured it again and again, but the corner of his mouth still couldn't help twitching, but he quickly calmed down his expression and answered as sincerely as possible:
"Mr. Wang, it's not that your novels are not good."
"In fact, your work is quite excellent and I'm fascinated by it."
Wang Qinghe raised his chin reservedly.
But then, he coldly snorted:
"Stop saying that. If you really want to be excellent, why isn't that book on this list?"
As he spoke, he tapped the form heavily with his fingers, full of resentment.
…
With this attitude, he said he didn’t care, and he still asked from the reader’s perspective…
Editor Su coughed dryly: "Actually, I was about to report this matter to you."
"Your book is good-looking, but it doesn't quite fit the style of today's mainstream online literature market."
