Chapter 82： Contracts that were swapped

Chapter 82 The contract that was swapped

Pei Tiantian frowned.

It would be fine if she didn't know about it, but now that she knew it, she couldn't just sit idly by and ignore it.

Editor-in-chief Xing is able to support his work despite the protests of so many people, so that his work can always be published in the magazine.

Then no matter what, she must do something to repay him.

As long as the copyright has not been sold, there is room for redemption.

This way, Xing Weigang’s rights protection journey, which lasted for more than ten years, would not end up in vain.

But how should I tell Editor Xing?

Pei Tiantian thought for a while, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind. He took out the manuscript he was going to send and quickly added some content to it.

Then give this month's manuscript to the eldest uncle and the second uncle as usual and ask them to send it to the magazine.

By the way, I also asked them to buy Xing Weigang’s personal works from the bookstore.

Pei Zhiwen and Pei Zhiqiang quickly brought back Xing Weigang's works.

Xing Weigang currently has three books published, the other two are short stories, and the only novel is "Jinghong".

After Pei Tiantian got the book, she read all three works by Xing Weigang.

Xing Weigang's works are mainly about local literature and documentary literature. The profound meaning behind his novels makes people's hearts fluctuate and cannot calm down for a long time.

After reading the book, Pei Tiantian suddenly felt a sense of inferiority in her heart.

Compared with Xing Weigang’s works, the novels she wrote are simply too superficial. They are indeed fast food literature.

However, editor Xing not only did not discriminate against his own novels, but also supported them. This also shows that this humanistic writer has a broad mind and is willing to tolerate all literary themes.

Not as rigid and conservative as some traditional writers.

I think this is one of the reasons why Xing Weigang became the editor-in-chief of "Story Collection" when he was in his thirties.

After Pei Tiantian's manuscript was sent, it arrived at the magazine soon.

When Xing Weigang was reviewing all the manuscripts that would be published in next month’s issue, he naturally saw Pei Tiantian’s new manuscript.

Xing Weigang picked up the manuscript and read it quickly. He couldn't help laughing.

I don’t know who this anonymous person is, he has such a big idea.

She will surprise him every time.

But when he was about to put down the manuscript, he suddenly noticed something.

He opened the manuscript again and finally found a plot in it.

This issue of the manuscript reveals another secret of the heroine, a talented writer.

It mentioned that a leading film and television company in the industry planned to purchase the copyright of the heroine's novel, thinking that the heroine didn't understand anything, and planned to cheat on the contract to obtain the copyright, but the heroine found out and slapped her in the face.

As soon as Xing Weigang saw this, he unconsciously remembered the novel copyright sales contract he had obtained from a company two days ago.

His wife contracted a strange disease six months ago and could not be cured in the hospital, which cost him almost all his savings. He was already extremely strapped when he suddenly received a letter from this company saying that he wanted to pay 100,000 yuan for it. Buy five-year rights to your own novel.

Xing Weigang put a lot of effort into the novel "Jinghong". He was unwilling to sell it from the bottom of his heart, but one hundred thousand yuan could solve his urgent need.

So he finally agreed.

Xing Wei just pulled out a document bag from the drawer. He opened the sealed document bag and took out the contract inside.

His name has been signed in the signature line on the last page of the contract.

Xing Weigang has been very busy running between magazines and hospitals for the past six months.

In the past few months, I have lost a lot of weight.

So when signing this contract, he entrusted his lawyer classmate Jiang Qi with full authority to negotiate with the company.

Although he had read the contents of the contract before, Xing Weigang unconsciously opened the regulations written in front of the contract again and read it carefully because of the influence of the plot of Pei Tiantian's novel.

Suddenly, the words "buyout" written in the most inconspicuous corner at the bottom of the document caught his eye.

Xing Weigang’s pupils shrank.

Even if he doesn’t understand the law, he still knows what a buyout means.

This means that after selling the copyright of his novel "Jinghong", it has nothing to do with him anymore.

Xing Weigang had a bit of shock in his eyes.

Because this version of the contract is obviously different from the one Jiang Qi showed to him.

He didn't even realize that the contract had been switched.

Cold sweat suddenly broke out on Xing Weigang's back.

Nearly sent the document bag.

Fortunately, fortunately, he just took it out and took a look.

Xing Weigang calmed down quickly. He immediately realized that his old classmate Jiang Qi must have colluded with the company in order to take away the permanent copyright of his book.

Xing Weigang was so angry that he quickly tore up the contract and threw it into the trash can.

His eyes unconsciously stayed on the anonymous manuscript, and Xing Weigang felt an inexplicable wonder.

How could it be such a coincidence?

The plot in the novel coincides with his real life.

Did he think too much?

Xing Weigang dug out the address left by Anonymous.

“Huangsha Village…”

Xing Weigang's eyes darkened and he murmured.

He suddenly had an impulse to meet the anonymous writer in person.

…

Pei Tiantian didn't know what happened to Xing Weigang, and she was just betting that Xing Weigang could discover the connection.

At the same time, the Pei family also completed the enrollment procedures for her and Gu Rong.

Tao Jing also bought new backpacks for her and Gu Rong in the city. They were both cartoon and animation bags.

Gu Rong’s bag is slightly larger, with Astro Boy painted on the white cloth.

Pei Tiantian’s small schoolbag is similar to the small floral cloth bag she usually carries. The pattern on the red background is Sailor Moon.

Pei Tiantian touched the Sailor Moon painted on her schoolbag, and then looked at Astro Boy on Gu Rong's schoolbag.

Sighing silently, what an era of tears.

She raised her little face and said to Tao Jing: "Thank you godmother! The schoolbag is so beautiful! Tiantian likes it very much!"

Even Gu Rong, who is usually as calm as a young adult, has a bit of light in his eyes when he looks at his schoolbag.

“Brother Gu Rong, do you like Astro Boy very much?”

Pei Tiantian asked when she saw Gu Rong hugging her small schoolbag tightly.

Gu Rong shook his head after hearing Pei Tiantian's words.

He had heard of this anime character, and had seen such cards and comic books being sold at the school gate before, but he never had the spare money to buy them.

So for Astro Boy, he didn’t know what it was about, so he couldn’t talk about liking it.

He was just happy that he had a schoolbag of his own.

In the past when he went to school, he used Gu Yang's worn-out canvas bag to carry his books. Every time he went to school, the straps of his schoolbag would always fall off.
