My Cartoonist Strategy
Chapter 649 Contract
When Shang Haozhi took Yu Chen to Shen Xin's studio, Shen Xin and others were eating.
"General Shang, General Yu, why are you here?"
Wang Wenhong looked up and saw the two, his face surprised.
"It was yesterday." Shang Haozhi explained.
"That line... Or, go up and say?"
Shen Xin pulled out a piece of paper and wiped his mouth, preparing to stand up, but Xi Muhan pulled his arm.
"What's the matter, let's talk after eating. Stomach is just forgotten?" Xi Muhan said dissatisfiedly, "I don't care about myself at all."
"..."
Shen Xin could only smile to Shang Haozhi, "Would you like to sit down and have a meal?"
"No, you eat first. Let's stand outside for a while." Shang Haozhi quickly waved his hand.
Shen Xin rests for so long, the main recuperation is stomach problems, therefore, in the diet, Xi Muhan pay more attention to it, it is understandable.
Shang Haozhi and Yu Chen came to the work area on the first floor.
When Yu Chen came here for the first time, everything was unfamiliar, and his eyes swept around, looking like a curious baby, while Shang Haozhi's eyes fell on the display screen, which was still the original "Steel".
After the reissue, "Steelmaking" will serialize the 138th episode "Reversal and Refinement", while the draft on the display at the moment is the 145th episode.
After the suspension of the publication, the length of each remark of "Steelmaking" was more than 30 pages, and recently it has soared to more than 40 pages. Except for the original three-transcript manuscript, Shen Xin painted 160 during the period of suspension. More than ten pages of manuscript.
"Ugh!"
Shang Haozhi sighed.
"What's wrong?" Yu Chen looked back.
"No... I just think that although the request made by Teacher Shen is very demanding, but he is not easy..."ComicFuture" should not have a harder cartoonist than him." Shang Haozhi said, "Thinking so, his The requirements are not so excessive."
"why?"
"If the hard-working and serious cartoonists have no difference from other cartoonists, who will work harder in the future?" Shang Haozhi asked back.
"Also." Yu Chen nodded and looked at the direction of the restaurant, but he saw Shen Xin and Wang Wenhong walked to the work area.
"Should this teacher be here for the first time?" Shen Xin's eyes moved to Yu Chen.
Yu Chen appeared to be around thirty-five years old, with short broken hair, wearing a white shirt, wearing a pair of rectangular glasses, and looks graceful.
"Hello, Mr. Shen, we should meet at the annual meeting. We used to be the editor-in-chief of "Young Future"." Yu Chen smiled and extended his right hand.
"Once it was?" Shen Xin was puzzled, but still shook hands with Yu Chen.
"Yes. It is the editor-in-chief of "ComicFuture". The time is too short. I haven't prepared a new business card, but the phone number above is valid." Yu Chen quickly took out the card package, took out a business card, and handed it to Shen Xin.
Shen Xin was a little surprised. Yu Chen's words shocked him more than business cards.
He took the business card, "Hello, what's wrong in the future, please bear with me."
"Sure, sure." Yu Chen nodded again and again.
After meeting with Xin Xin, his favorability with Shen Xin increased a bit.
Shen Xin turned his attention to Shang Haozhi and speculated: "Mr. Shang, have you risen?"
"Can you guess this?" Shang Haozhi shook his head helplessly. "It's true, he will be responsible for "ComicFuture" and the app in the future."
"Is it? Congratulations." Shen Xin really didn't expect these, and looked around again, "This is not a place to talk, let's go talk?"
"Guests follow the Lord." Shang Haozhi nodded.
"By the way, Bao Dong is angry with me?" Shen Xin smiled.
"That's needless to say, he didn't sleep last night." Shang Haozhi smiled bitterly.
Shen Xin sighed: "No way, we are negotiating, not playing house, so the tone will inevitably be too heavy."
"I understand, so, I don't care about yesterday. Just,
On the second floor, three people sat on the sofa, Wang Wenhong brewed a pot of tea, and after everyone filled it, he sat next to Shen Xin.
"This is the case. After thinking last night, Bao Dong agreed to all your requests. But because the next comic has not come out, you should not know the title of the book. So, we can’t sign a contract, we can only give you a copy. Agreement, wait until the comics come out, and then make up the contract. Then there are the online versions of the two comics contracts..." Shang Haozhi opened the file package and took out six documents.
The contract is basically double, one to the magazine and one to keep.
Shen Xin and Wang Wenhong accepted the contract and quickly read the contract of the online comics. The comics revenue is indeed seventy-three, and the fee is charged on demand.If publicity is needed, the two comics should also cooperate.
The so-called publicity includes, but not limited to, free comics for a specified period, free publicity on major forums and secondary websites.
"I have a question." Wang Wenhong looked up after looking at the contract.
"Ok?"
"If "Steel" is published on the app, the sales of "ComicFuture" should also be affected?" Wang Wenhong asked.
Shen Xin also has this doubt. If "Steel" is serialized on the app, then the sales of "ComicFuture" should decrease. After all, there will always be some readers who only buy "ComicFuture" because of one or two comics.
"Yu Chen and I thought this way. "Soul of Chess" will be all on the app, but the situation of "Steel" is a little special. Before the end, it will not be all on it. Each volume will only be free for one. Two words. In this way, readers want to read the following content, either buy comics on the app, or buy a stand-alone book.
"The latest two-volume comic book will not appear on the app, but the app will be active. If a reader spends a certain amount on the app, the reader will be provided with the latest volume for free for a limited time. In the middle, the equivalent cost is taken out as your income in this part."
This one was negotiated by Shang Haozhi and Yu Chen on the way, so I haven't had time to add it.
"That one, just add it?" Shen Xin gave the contract to Shang Haozhi without any further comments.
The contract is not the final version and he cannot sign it yet.
Compared with the contracts of "Soul of Chess" and "Steel", Shen Xin obviously cares more about the agreement.
His conditions have been put forward, but Bao Jiyi's request has not been said, and it should be reflected in the agreement.
The length of the agreement is not long, only 2 pages, indicating many conditions mentioned by Shen Xin, such as an exclusive agreement and the ownership of copyright, but there are also conditions, the magazine has the right to "cut the waist" comics.
Shen Xin understands the magazine's idea that "waist cut" is actually a stop loss. If the new comics do not bring them profits, they may not be willing to accept his conditions. At that time, two shots will be scattered, which is good for both parties.
"I also have a condition that I hope to add."
"Conditions again?" Shang Haozhi's eyelids jumped twice, somewhat guilty.
"Don't be nervous, it's not a big deal. I can also decide the length of the work. If I think the manga can be finished, then you can't stop it." Shen Xin put a smile on his face.
