120. The royalties from the first printing of the copybook have arrived (thanks to the 100-point reward from Feng Origin)
Gu Cheng nodded. There was nothing he could do about this situation. He could only hope to improve his status in the industry through outstanding works, so as to avoid encountering this kind of thing again in future work adaptations.
After continuing to argue with Yu Qi, the other party finally said goodbye.
"Senior brother, why don't you finish your meal before leaving?"
Gu Cheng's attitude was sincere. The other party came here specifically to send him a message, but he ended up being drunk and went home. This was a bit too inhospitable.
Moreover, he had already arranged for Sun Ya to cook more meals today, with the intention of leaving Yu Qi to eat.
"Can not be done."
Yu Qi was a little moved, but still shook his head and refused. As the editor-in-chief of a publishing house, he also had a lot of daily entertainment. In addition, he now had to sell copybooks, and having meals with various sellers to connect with each other was also part of his job.
.
After several attempts to persuade him to no avail, Gu Cheng could only get up and take Yu Qi to the door of the house, watching him disappear into the elevator.
"gone?"
Sun Ya came out of the kitchen, wiped her hands with a scarf, and asked Gu Cheng doubtfully.
"Let's go, it's okay, let's eat,"
After lunch, Gu Cheng was a little tired and wanted to take a lunch break, but before he fell asleep, he was woken up by the text message notification on his cell phone. When he opened it, he saw that the fee for the first printing of the copybook had arrived, and it was published.
The company has done a very good job in this aspect. Every time Yu Qi makes a promise, the money will arrive quickly. This may also be related to the fact that Gu Cheng's works have always been excellent.
If an author fails, the finance department will definitely delay it again and again, and many writers will be owed royalties.
This is true not only for writers, but also for many industries. After all, if a large amount of money stays in the company account for one day, it will bring a lot of interest.
If it were at the beginning of the time travel, Gu Cheng would have been ecstatic when he saw such a large balance in his account, and he would have been so excited that he could not sleep. However, after experiencing the experience of the previous book, he now
I was able to calm down and calmly made a phone call to Sun Wei, telling her that the funds had been prepared and that the matter of starting a company and acquiring shops needed to be accelerated. Then I turned over and fell asleep.
Sun Wei received a call from Gu Cheng and helplessly wiped the sweat on her forehead. Ever since she discussed opening a company with Gu Cheng, she had been busy working. She was short of funds and had nothing to do with the company.
The place where she invested, and the fact that her job felt like someone else could do it, gave her a constant sense of urgency.
I picked up the mineral water next to me and took a few sips, cheering to myself secretly.
"Come on, sooner or later, you will be able to live a prosperous life without having to do anything."
Then he walked towards the shop with a sale in front with a smile on his face.
After a period of busy work, she has already bought five of the ten shops originally scheduled, and the prices of the remaining five have not been negotiated. For Sun Wei, if she buys the shops at the normal price in the market, it will be her dereliction of duty.
, anyone can do this kind of thing.
And lowering prices and saving some funds for the company is where my ability lies.
So regarding the price, I had to repeatedly negotiate with the shop owner for even one thousand yuan. Many people were defeated by her persistence and signed a house sales agreement, agreeing on a specified time to collectively sign the contract.
This is also the reason why her progress is a bit slow, and she has already taken a fancy to the site that the company will use. It is one of the five that have been confirmed to be acquired. The selected store is located at the head of a golden street. Entering this
On the street, this is the first shop I see.
Because it is located at the intersection of the street, there are still a lot of people passing by here every day. If Gu Cheng sees it, he will definitely say that it is a waste of money. How can a store in such a good location be used as an agency company? It is rented to such
The rent of a big brand's clothing direct-operated store is a lot of money, but now people don't value the importance of the store so much. In addition, there will definitely be more and more shops in Gucheng in the future, so there will be
Don't care about the gains and losses.
Sun Wei here has been busy, and after Yu Qi returned to the company, he also began to rush the preparation progress of Gu Cheng's new book. During this period of time, the publishing house had nothing to look at except the "Orient Express"
Yiliang's work, as the company's editor-in-chief, he also faces great pressure.
The competition in the publishing industry is relatively fierce. If you are not careful, you will be pulled into the crowd by the people chasing behind you. He learned from other channels that his old rival Xingyu Publishing House recently planned to create a new publisher.
Emerging Writers Project.
To put it simply, it means using all the resources to try your best to win over a writer with relatively good writing skills as the number one writer in your publishing house.
The whole plan is more inclined to the kind of idol-building plan. Yu Qi has always scorned this approach. The writer itself is a profession that requires talent, and relying on the writer's appearance to attract fans to worship and then purchase the works.
, how is it different from those film and television companies?
He had always disliked this approach that deviated from the writer's seriousness and reclusiveness behind the scenes. When it came to appearance, if Gu Cheng's personal image was used for marketing, I believe sales would easily explode.
This method is easily attacked and rejected in the mainstream writer circle.
This is also the reason why Yu Qi has been hesitant to implement author signature sales.
If Gu Cheng is ostracized by the mainstream writer group because of this marketing method, it will be more than worth the loss. In his heart, he has always regarded Gu Cheng as the target of his publishing house's full support, and he also hopes that the other party can win some literary awards.
What a gain.
People who follow this path are destined to win nothing in terms of awards. Take DiCaprio in his previous life, for example, because his outstanding appearance attracted attention, people subconsciously lost their judgment on his acting skills, so the academic community has always been disapproving of him.
Too cold.
After struggling for many years, he destroyed his image, lost his halo, and won the title of best actor that he had been longing for, that is, the title of actor, and was recognized by the mainstream literary and art circles.
He had also asked Gu Cheng's opinion before, and the other party was not too opposed to this method. Gu Cheng, who had traveled from other worlds, was very open-minded in this regard. For example, Xiao Si and others, although they were all subjected to various
