My Cartoonist Strategy
Chapter 103 Negotiation
February 16th is the first day of "Hunting Abyss".But for Shen Xin, what is more important today is to meet with the president and the editor-in-chief and agree on the operation of "Y's" in the next few months.
Yan Fei saw Shen Xin coming to the magazine office of "New World" and went upstairs to communicate with the president and coordinate the time.
The editor-in-chief also came out of the editorial department. After introducing himself, Shen Xin knew that the middle-aged fat man in front of him was the editor-in-chief of "New World".He usually communicates with Yan Fei and rarely comes to the magazine. Many people in the magazine are not familiar with it.
After seeing Shen Xin, the editor-in-chief first greeted him, and then told him that the president's health has not been very good. When he speaks, he must pay attention to his tone.Whether or not the matter can be negotiated is a trivial matter. In case the president's body is in a state of health, the problem will become bigger.
Shen Xin frowned slightly. Today's negotiations are also very important to him, and he will certainly not give in.However, the president's physical problems must be considered, so he had to wait for formal negotiations before considering.
Seeing that the editor-in-chief was in the parlor, the female staff in other departments talked with a young man alone and speculated about Shen Xin's identity.
"Isn't it a relative of Editor-in-Chief?"
"Possibly, maybe as an editor at a magazine."
"It looks so young and looks handsome. I don't know if I have a girlfriend."
"Don't you feel excited?"
"You just moved?"
Xiao Li passed by and coughed, "Don't think about it, this is the magazine's leading cartoonist, Teacher Shen Zheng, usually busy. I don't have time to think about it."
"No? So young?"
"Oh, what a pity."
Xiao Li's words completely broke the female employee's mind. "Y's" is in the limelight in Yunhai City. Now even Dreamer's new signature "National Football Coach" has been stabilized by "Y's".As the author of Shen Xin, the value has also risen.
Apart from lamenting their regrets, they had no other choice but to leave with a little embarrassment.
Xiaoli glanced at Shen Xin, and her mood was equally complicated.In June and July of last year, she and Shen Xin met each other, but did not expect that in just six months, Shen Xin had stood at the top of the magazine cartoonist, and the rate of rise was too fast.
At this time, the elevator door opened, Yan Fei came out of the elevator and saw Xiaoli standing outside the meeting room with a document bag and asked, "Xiaoli, what's wrong?"
"No... I just received the manuscript." Xiaoli patted the document pocket and walked toward the editorial office in a panic.
Yan Fei was confused, but did not have time to think about it. He walked to Shen Xin and the editor-in-chief and said softly, "The editor-in-chief, Mr. Shen, and the president are already waiting for two in the conference room, and the assistant to the president is also there. "
"President Assistant? Who is he?" Shen Xin surprised, he did not intend to communicate with the President Assistant.
"Song Ren is the president's only son, the next president." Yan Fei reminded.
Shen Xin immediately understood that the so-called "presidential assistant" was actually a post deliberately created to familiarize Song Ren with the operation of the magazine.When the time is right, take over the position of president.
Taking into account that the president's health is not very good, Shen Xin can also understand the president's ideas.
Shen Xin's next book is not going to be serialized on "New World", so he is not interested in the president's successor.
Three people came outside the conference room, the editor knocked on the door twice, and someone in the room immediately shouted "Come in".
The voice is full of confidence, not like an old man with poor health, it should be the son of the president.
The meeting room is not too big, about 1/3 smaller than the editorial department, but with an oval conference table, there is no extra space.
At the far end of the conference table, there was an old man with gray hair and a kind face. When he saw Shen Xin coming in, he smiled and tapped his forehead.
Shen Xin also bowed slightly.
"Are you Zheng Zheng?" A young man with his hair on his back sitting next to the old man asked Shen Xin.
"Yes."
Shen Xin glanced at the young man, who should be less than thirty years old, with an arrogant look on his face.
Needless to say, this person is Song Ren.
"I used to look at pictures before, and I finally saw alive today." Song Ren chuckled.
Yan Fei's face was gloomy and the editor-in-chief was slightly embarrassed. Shen Xin sneered and looked at him coldly.
"What nonsense?" Song Tai patted the table and glared at Song. "You either go out now or shut up for me."
Song Ren put away his smile and turned his head angrily.
Song Taichang took two breaths to calm down his mood. "Don't mind the little guy's words. Just sit back."
Shen Xin didn't have time to fight with Song Ren either, and came closer to Song Tai and pulled out a chair.The editor-in-chief and Yan Fei had different looks and sat on both sides of Shen Xin.
"Okay, Mr. Shen, you offered to meet me and Lao Zhang. Now that we are all sitting here, just talk about anything?" Song Tai asked.
Song Ren leaned against the back of the chair, closing his eyes and raising his mind, but his ears stood up.
"I want to compete for this year's "Rookie Award", what kind of support can the magazine provide?" Shen Xin opened the door.
"Under the premise of ensuring the normal development of the magazine, try our best to help you." Song Tai said.
Shen Xin rubbed his chin, and Song Tai spoke very skillfully.
The implication is that the magazine society helps Shen Xin, but because the magazine has to develop normally, it will have reservations.
There is nothing wrong with Song Tai's approach. After all, the magazine also needs to survive.And many examples prove that when a company does its best to do something, it may "dead".
Just like the old son of the 11th district animation production company "Dragon Son", because it is necessary to produce an animation that shocked the 11th district, later, "Dragon Son" went bankrupt because of this animation.
If Shen Xin is in Song Tai's position, he will make the same choice.
"What is the'maximum help' that Mr. President said?" Shen Xin asked.
"It depends on how much help Shen needs." Song Tai gave Shen Xin the ball again without explanation.
Shen Xin smiled, "I remember Sister Ji Xue had discussed a condition with the club and would conduct a large-scale publicity of "Y's" when necessary. Is this the case?"
Song Ren's face slightly changed when he heard Shen Xin's words, "Of course not..."
"To shut up."
Song Tai stared at either of Song's eyes. Song Ren blushed and snorted, turning his head away.
Shen Xin frowned slightly. Is there any misunderstanding?
"Mr. Shen's statement is actually correct, just not very accurate. Of course, this is not to blame you. After all, you haven’t seen that contract. We negotiated with Miss Ji this three times. The final version of the contract is, when necessary. Under the conditions, she will conduct a large-scale publicity of a comic in "New World" within three years. Among all works, "Y's" has priority.
"If you don't worry, I can show you the contract. Of course, Miss Ji is right to say that, after all, "New World" can only get the comics, only "Y's" for the time being." Song Tai explained.
Old fox.
Shen Xin nodded and raised the corner of his mouth.
Needless to say, during the negotiation, Song Tai must take "Y's" as an example, so that Ji Yinxuan eased his vigilance.Shen Xin can even imagine the content of the contract.
Of course, Song Tai was definitely not aimed at Shen Xin. This "cooperation" with Jixin Xuan was hard-earned. He valued the contract very much and wanted to maximize the role of this contract.
In other words, Song Tai may agree to vigorously promote "Y's", but he also hopes to get Shen Xin's assurance, for example, the next book will continue to be serialized in "New World".
"We will put this contract aside and talk about it later. My request is simple. I need the magazine to promote "Y's" twice. For the first time, from now to early July, if "Y's" Sales can be squeezed into the top ten of the "Rookie List", get, from July, the second promotion of "Y's". By then, the magazine, me, and thistle sister, we sat Let's talk about the next thing together."
The editor-in-chief opened his eyes wide, and Shen Xin even showed up directly in front of the president.
The president nodded with a smile, "No problem."
