"Hello, is this Mr. Chen Zechen?" Chen Ze received such a call the day after he contributed.
"I am. Are you?"
"I'm the editor in chief of the new animation magazine. We've reviewed the dunk master you submitted. We think it's good and has certain commercial value." There's a string of voices coming from the phone.
"What do you mean?" Chen Ze recognized the meaning of Lin Lan's words. He was very excited, but he confirmed it.
"We think it's necessary to sign a contract here! What do you think? "
Lin Lan's words confirmed Chen Ze's mind, and he swallowed. If someone wanted to sign a contract with him half a month ago, he certainly took it for granted. However, after half a month of rejection, he is really excited to hear the news of signing the contract.
"No problem." Chen Ze took a deep breath, stabilized his mood, and then replied.
"That's good." Chen Ze's answer gives Lin Lan a sigh of relief. For such a cartoon that she attaches great importance to, she is also afraid of any accident. Now when she hears the news that the painter agrees, she is also secretly relieved.
"Well, I'll tell you our remuneration first. It's basically 400 Chinese dollars for a painting. If you want to issue a booklet in the future, you'll also have 8% royalty. Our online subscription is also divided into five. Of course, these are not certain. If your comics sell well in the future, these can be discussed again. "
After listening to Lin Lan's words, Chen Ze nodded secretly in his heart. The new animation magazine is as good as the heart of time. He knows the treatment of other magazines. For a newcomer like him, if a painting can have more than 100 yuan of Chinese currency, he stealthily laughs, and he actually gets 400 yuan at once.
Royalties are even better, generally only 3% or 5%, 8% is a very high price. As for 10% or even higher, only those so-called great gods or super gods can get it. New people don't even think about it.
In fact, what Chen Ze doesn't know is that the new animation magazine has just opened to attract talents, and the salary is better. But it's not as good as this. What really makes Chen Ze get this price is the potential of his "slam dunk master" draft, which makes Lin Lan very excited.
"Well, if you don't have any questions, I'll send the TT number of our editor later. If you add it, the editor will introduce to you the details of our signing."
"Well, all right." Chen Ze went back to China. After Lin Lan hung up, he received Lin Lan's message. In the text message, Lin Lan sent the editor's TT number and her own TT number to Chen Ze, saying that if you have any problems in the future, you can also find her.
After Chen zedeng got on TT, he sent a friend adding application to those two numbers. Lin Lan didn't return his own number, but the editor quickly passed his request. Then the editor explained to Chen Ze the signing of the contract, as well as the matters that should be paid attention to in the future.
"Our magazine is a weekly magazine. It's published on Wednesdays, so you have to hand in your manuscript on Monday at the latest so that we can print it. In addition, don't suspend the publication if there's nothing special. It's very demoralizing, especially for newcomers. "
Looking at the editor's most important points, Chen Ze smiles. Zhou Geng may be a headache for other painters, but it's too simple for him to be a reincarnated and caretaker with comics in his head.
As for the suspension, of course, he knows how much it will hurt people's popularity. Although cartoonists will have a special brain fever or carven, but once or twice is OK, more times, even the God can not afford to consume.
He remembered that one of the most famous cartoonists in his previous life was Fu Xie. He didn't take a break when he was painting, but he drew occasionally when he was. Of course, it also made his popularity plummet. If he had not been too talented, he would have fallen from the throne.
However, this is not a problem for Chen Ze. Now he has drawn almost one tenth of the slam dunk master. If he wants to do it with all his strength, I'm afraid he can finish it in a few months.
"OK, no problem. I see." Chen zefa passed this sentence and concluded the discussion with the editor. The draft he submitted this time is enough for the first series, so the next submission is next week, but Chen Ze can't wait to see his comic series.
"Today, Saturday, that is, there are four days left for my cartoon to appear in the magazine." Chen Ze calculated the time, whether it is his previous life or this life that has not been reborn, he is just a street painter. I can only watch other people's comics serially, I can only daydream, I want my own comics to be serialized, now I finally don't have to daydream.
He opened his friend's address book, opened the dialog box with time heart, and sent "I've done it too!" Such a sentence goes by. Now he needs to find someone to share his joy, and his first thought is to give him the heart of time."Really, that's great. So we'll be colleagues in the future." The heart of time soon came back and sent a smiling face.
"Yes, thank you so much this time. I don't know what to do without you." Chen Ze replied.
"Then you can't say thank you verbally. You have to take action."
"Thank you as you say, and I'll thank you as you say. Why don't I invite you to dinner? We've never met before Although Chen Ze and the heart of time have known each other for a long time, the heart of time has never mentioned his real situation. Chen Ze only knows that he and he belong to the same city, and nothing else.
"What's the meaning of eating, or I'll take you to a famous bath center in G city to see what big health care is?"
Looking at the news from the heart of time, Chen Ze swallowed. Since I got to know him, time heart often talked in front of him about how he picked up girls and asked for guns, or how he killed chickens with big health care horses all over the country, which made Chen Ze itch.
Chen Ze was really moved by the suggestion of time heart, but he was still a little virgin and didn't want to waste his first time on it, so he didn't know how to reply.
"Ha ha, you don't dare to know." Perhaps it is to guess Chen Ze's tangled heart, the heart of time sent such a message, "just to tease you, let's not meet.". This is very good. In reality, you can say anything if you don't know each other. Once you meet in the future, it's hard to say something. As for the thank you, I understand
Time in Chen Ze during the day to go to bed painting, painting at night to go to work in the past, soon arrived on Wednesday. On this day, Chen Ze went out early and wanted to buy a new cartoon weekly magazine, manke weekly, to see what his comic series looked like.
However, to Chen Ze's surprise, he thought the magazine would be difficult to find. After all, it was a new magazine, and the channel was certainly not good. But I didn't expect that there were newspaper kiosks next to him. He quickly opened a look, the first page is his "slam dunk master.".
