My Cartoonist Strategy

Chapter 126 Negotiation

Shen Xin drank two porridges and calmed down.

"That... are you sure you won't be deceived?"

"No. It is a relatively large light novel magazine, which should be reputable." Xi Muhan said.

"How old?" Shen Xin asked.

"It's bigger than "New World" now." Xi Muhan explained.

"..."

Even if it was advertised, the sales of "New World" could not be ranked in the top ten of domestic comic magazines.

"The magazine is called "The Lightest Word", has Brother Xin heard it?" Xi Muhan looked at Shen Xin expectantly.

Shen Xin shook his head slightly. He only knew about the three major journals, and he did not pay much attention to novel magazines.

"One million sales per issue, right? But the editor said, I want to try the water with short stories."

Shen Xin nodded and was able to publish one million copies of novel magazines, which was already very good.

The difficulty of short stories lies in how to make a complex story simple. The difficulty of long novels lies in how to not lose control of the novel after writing it.

The difference between the two is quite obvious.

"So what are you going to prepare?" Shen Xin asked.

"Fairy tale. Generally speaking, it is to rearrange our story." Xi Muhan said.

"We? You said we... wouldn't it be just you and me?" Shen Xin's eyelids jumped twice.

Although he didn't have that experience, he knew from his previous memories how painful the host and Xi Muhan were.

Since Xi Muhan took the initiative to write the past, he should have come out of the shadows.

"Well, it's us... what's behind."

"Cough...sister, there seems to be nothing between us." Shen Xin quickly reminded.

"Ah?" Xi Muhan was a little stunned, and then he understood Shen Xin's words, and his face turned red instantly. "Brother Xin, what are you talking about? I mean, how do we overcome the difficulties."

If not, you don’t have to refute it so quickly, right?

Xi Muhan glanced at Shen Xin, a little unhappy.

"No, I just want to remind you a little bit. It's better not to write in everyday text."

"Why?" Xi Muhan asked.

"It's too bland and no one will watch... You can also ask the editor. They have more experience and they should be right to listen to them." Shen Xin did not dare to say his "experience".

If the web author changes a website, he may all be on the street, not to mention that he has changed the world now.Besides, he doesn't know what novels are popular in this world.

"Well. I'll ask when it's written."

Looking at the serious Xi Muhan, Shen Xin was not good enough to disturb her enthusiasm, she could only nod her head, and finally reminded her that she must not fall behind in her studies and that she should not write novels after the third grade.

"I just want to prove myself. During high school, I wrote a maximum of a dozen or two hundred thousand words," Xi Muhan assured.

Shen Xin is busy with "Y's" now, and has no time to take care of Xi Muhan. He can only send hope to the little girl.

"By the way, have you recently been in contact with thistle Xuejie?"

After drinking the porridge, Shen Xin remembered Ji Yinxuan.

Negotiations with Song Tai tomorrow will involve Ji Yinxuan with a certain probability.If she has time, everyone can sit down and talk together, there will always be a good result.

"Sister Xuan? There is a connection. She is very busy. It is said that she wants to make the game at the end of the year and promote it in the first half of next year. The game will be released before graduation."

"is it?"

Shen Xin doesn't know much about the production process of the game, but it is definitely more complicated than drawing cartoons.Moreover, next year Jixin Xuan will graduate, and the time will certainly be in a hurry.

"Is there anything? Would you like me to ask her?"

"No, I have her phone.

"No. Sister Xuan is very busy. If there is nothing wrong, it is best not to disturb her." Xi Muhan reminded in good faith.

Huh?Didn't you want to ask me just now?

Shen Xin was confused, but did not think much.

Whether to ask Jixin Xuan for help can only be determined after he talks with Song Tai.

I hope the old president will not make trouble for him tomorrow.

Shen Xin thought secretly.

The next day, Shen Xin did not go to his studio, but went directly to the magazine office of "New World".

This time, there was no longer a group of people sitting in the conference room as before, but only two people, Shen Xin and Song Tai.

"Congratulations."

After Shen Xin entered the door, Song Tai smiled.

"Tong Xi." Shen Xin nodded slightly at the corner of his mouth.

Song Tai pinched the bridge of his nose and pointed to the chair in front of his desk. "Sit... I also know that you are a person who likes to go straight to the subject. I also want to determine the plan for the next season as soon as possible. However, the fourth volume is on sale. Soon, we still want to discuss it."

"This is the best." Shen Xin also has the spirit, "What plan does the president have?"

"In view of the excellent income this radio drama brings, the next volume will still be released together with the radio drama. I hope the fourth volume will also have a good sales." Song Tai said.

"The operation mode of the next volume is the same as this time?" Shen Xin asked.

"Well." Song Tai nodded. "Since the effect is good, there is no need to make changes."

Shen Xin nodded, and was not too surprised.

"You don't seem to be optimistic?" Song Tai wondered.

"Ok."

"Last time it worked well."

"But this model will be learned by other magazines. If "Penalty" or other comics emulate this method, we will have no advantage." Shen Xin asked.

"This..." Song Tai frowned, his face serious.

The marketing model is the easiest to imitate, and if other magazines really imitate it, it should be more thorough than "Y's".After all, "Y's" has proved to everyone that this model can bring huge benefits.

"Then... do you have any new ideas?" Song Tai asked back.

"One thing, but whether it will be effective is not known."

During this period of time, Shen Xin also thought a lot, but did not expect a suitable idea, but in the radio drama, he thought of an idea.

"What idea?" Song Tai asked quickly.

"Similar to'Unblock'?" Shen Xin speculated.

"Unblock? How to operate?" Song Tai looked puzzled.

"Roughly speaking, 10 episodes of radio dramas are recorded in advance. When the sales volume of the fourth volume exceeds 100,000 copies, two episodes are unsealed. If the sales volume exceeds 500,000 copies, all 10 episodes are unsealed." Shen Xin explained.

"In other words, if you can't sell 500,000 copies, wouldn't it be unsealed?" Song Tai surprised.

Shen Xin nodded honestly, "Yes, then it can't be unsealed."

Song Tai frowned, "Is the risk too great?"

"Wealth seeks insurance. Besides, the third volume has sold more than half a million copies. If the fourth volume fails to reach this sales volume, then the "Newcomer Award" is estimated to be gone." Shen Xin said.

Song Tai pondered for a long time, and slowly said: "If you think so, it is not impossible to operate. However, I have a suggestion."

"Ok?"

"Each book contains a questionnaire, asking if they support the third season of radio drama." Song Tai suggested.
