Become famous another day

If the heat in June is still a little reserved as if it had just stepped onto the stage, the sun in July is like a crazy donkey spinning in circles, running rampant in the world, making everyone avoid it when they see it, and they can't stand it even though they are separated from each other by the old man. You can feel its madman-like threat from afar.

At this time, you can still run out to meet people. Either the relationship is extremely good, or something really happens and you must meet.

Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi were sitting in a coffee shop next to Guangmao Building, waiting for Xin Zixin.

Today they are going to communicate with Xin Zixing about the follow-up cooperation on this Mook.

Compared with just talking about intentions when we first met, what we want to talk about today must be more specific and realistic.

Chen Siqi saw that Lu Yanhe was a little nervous and said, "Let me talk about it later. You and she have known each other and worked together before. You are embarrassed to ask many questions. It's better for me."

When Lu Yanhe heard what Chen Siqi said, he looked at her gratefully.

Being thin-skinned is really a huge problem for him.

Want to change.

"But, I've actually been wanting to ask you a question."

"what is the problem?"

"From the first time I communicated with Sister Zi Xing, I was surprised. You didn't seem to be nervous or unfamiliar with negotiations at all. You were always confident." Lu Yanhe said, "How did you do it?"

"I have imitated it many times. When I was a child, I often followed my dad and saw him discussing business with others. I was a little bit influenced by it. Later, when Liu Wei'an came, I often imagined that one day I would inherit my dad's company and then ruthlessly He slapped her hard in the face and often fantasized about negotiating with people in various scenes, just like in the TV series, imagining that she was a queen." Chen Siqi showed a smile on her lips and said, "Actually, I just don't care about anything, and I don't care about anything. Thinking about speaking skills and the like, the more people think about it, the more they feel they don’t know how to speak. I just say whatever comes to my mind. Maybe others think that I speak very bluntly and have no skills, or that the way I speak is not negotiation. It doesn’t matter to me which way is suitable for the time. Compared with whether it is the right way or not, I have always felt that you should say what you need to say first. It is much more important to really say what you need to say than to show your face that you are good or that I am good. "

Lu Yanhe said: "Your mentality is much stronger than mine."

"Yes." Chen Siqi nodded, "If you were born in a family like mine, you would open your eyes every day and there would be an enemy trying to outwit you. After so many years of training, you will definitely have such a mentality."

Lu Yanhe couldn't laugh or cry when he heard what Chen Siqi said.

At this time, Xin Zixing came.
-
Xin Zixing has been busy setting up the shooting team of "City Travel" these two days, and at the same time, he is guiding Liu Yaliang step by step in the clothing and fashion section.

Almost every working day exceeds 15 hours.

However, Xin Zixing did not find it difficult at all. Instead, she was full of motivation and energy, which made people around her feel incredible, even unbelievable.

There are many people in the cafe.

However, she still saw Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi at a glance.

The two of them were sitting in a booth by the window. Lu Yanhe was wearing sunglasses, probably to avoid being recognized as much as possible.

Xin Zixin raised a smile and walked over, "I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long."

"No, we just arrived."

"The past two days have been really busy. I just had a video conference with people in the car." Xin Zixing said, "The feedback on "City Travel Notes: Corridor Chapter" is much better than expected. I am in the process of setting up a shooting team and will wait for confirmation From now on, we will start officially recording this documentary.”

"Okay." Lu Yanhe nodded.

Xin Zixing asked: "Is there any follow-up progress on the Mook you want to make?"

Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "I have already contacted all of the lists I showed you last time. Everyone is initially willing to write and read. There is no refusal."

Xin Zixing looked at Lu Yanhe in surprise, "So fast?"

"Yes, we also want to make it as soon as possible."

"Then what you want to talk to me about today should be the follow-up cooperation method?"

"Yes." Lu Yanhe nodded and looked at Chen Siqi at the same time. "We need to communicate clearly first about how we will meet with you in the future and what form of cooperation we will have."

Xin Zixing nodded, not surprised that they would make such a request.

"This is how it should be. If you have any ideas, you can tell them directly. If I can make the decision, I will reply to you on the spot. If I can't make the decision, I will go back and communicate with my superiors." Xin Zixing said very frankly.

Chen Siqi said: "Regarding this Mook, if it is put on Yemai.com in the future, what can Yemai.com do to promote this book?"

"If it is exclusively launched on Yemai.com, I can guarantee that the promotion will not be worse than the documentary "City Travel Notes: Corridor"." Xin Zixing said, "I have to repeat it again, our Yemai.com itself is very I hope to create a book series of my own. We have a dedicated e-reading section, but we don’t have our own book series. When Yan He proposed that you want to create an e-magazine, my eyes lit up and I felt like we hit it off so well. Due to this positioning, as long as your Mook is exclusively available on Yemai.com, you can imagine that we will not treat it badly."

"Do you expect it to make money?"

"To be honest, I may not have made money in the past one to two years. I must have lost money and made money. The current e-reading market, especially this form of e-reading with traditional content, does not have a mature market. There is one Stable and profitable industry lines need to be developed by ourselves." Chen Siqi said, "I don't even want it to be charged, it is just a product we launch, so that more people know about it and more people read it."

Lu Yanhe said: "What about the production costs?"

Xin Zixing said: "Yemai.com has its own profit points. This book may not be profitable from the perspective of the investment and output of this book. However, let me put it bluntly, we want to launch a book like this The relationship itself is not for profit, but for the influence of the brand and to obtain a stable group of readers."

Chen Siqi nodded and said, "I understand, but in this case, all costs will be paid by Yemai.com? Including our remuneration? We can't work in vain, right?"

Xin Zixing laughed, "Of course, my idea is very simple. For the first issue, I applied to the company for 10 yuan as production funds. You can make this book within this budget. The 10 yuan also includes you." The remuneration of the two people will depend on the effect of the first issue. If the effect meets our expectations, we will sign a long-term cooperation agreement and the production funds can also be increased, but this increase must depend on how many readers it can convert."

"Does 10 yuan require all the copyrights, or just the Internet broadcast rights?" Chen Siqi asked cautiously.

Xin Zixing said: "I can't say this now. I want to report it and confirm it."

"If it costs 10 yuan for all the copyrights, we will definitely not accept it." Chen Siqi said directly, "To be honest, the price is not high."

"For an electronic Mook, it is no longer a low price."

"As you said, there is no basic foundation for electronic Mook now, the market has not been developed, and there is no comparison. Who knows whether the price is high or low?" Chen Siqi shook his head, "Jiang Yuqian, Lu Yanhe, Li Zhibai, Song Linxin, Liu Jiazhen , Mingyin... When these names are put together, the publicity value of any product is more than [-]. Not to mention the brand influence, the traffic generated by these names alone is not a small amount. This traffic will have a great impact on you Yemai The advertising revenue from the Internet is not small."

Xin Zixing glanced at Chen Siqi in surprise.

The same goes for Lu Yanhe.

Chen Siqi took a deep breath and said: "However, the first phase of 10 yuan, as long as you agree that it is just for the right to network broadcast, I think we can try it first and see how far we can achieve it in the first phase, and we will talk about it later To be honest, it is difficult to pay these people just 10 yuan for their royalties and design fees.”

"I know, of course I know that this amount of funding is not comparable to the investment in the traditional magazine era, but I also tell the truth, except for our Yemai.com, no other company will spend 10 yuan in production funds to try such a current It's something that no one has made." Xin Zixing said, "As long as this Mook can get more than 5 subscriptions, starting from the second issue, we will increase the production funds, at least to 15 yuan per issue."

Chen Siqi said: "How do you calculate the number of subscriptions? Since you don't plan to sell, how do you calculate the number of subscriptions?"

"If the same user reads for more than three to 10 minutes, we count it as one subscription." Xin Zixing said.

Chen Siqi made some calculations in his mind. If it is on the shelves for free, everyone can subscribe to this book without spending money. Fifty thousand subscriptions is not that many.

Jiang Yuqian and other celebrity artists alone can bring more loyal fans than this number.

But there is a problem, they will read articles by their own idols, but can they persist in reading for half an hour?

Chen Siqi was suspicious.

In fact, if a person is willing to read for more than half an hour, it means that he has almost accepted the content of the book and is really willing to read it.

Based on this calculation, the number of subscriptions of [-] is very high.
-
After meeting Xin Zixing this time, Chen Siqi and Lu Yanhe were silent for a while, thinking.

What to do, how to decide?

Lu Yanhe actually didn't have much idea about these things. Compared with these things, Lu Yanhe paid more attention to the content itself.

So, after thinking for a while, he stopped thinking about it.

Just leave it to Chen Siqi to think about it. Anyway, she seems to be much more skilled at this matter than him.

Chen Siqi looked up at him and asked, "What do you think?"

Lu Yanhe said: "I listen to you."

Chen Siqi looked at him in surprise and said, "This is the book you want to make."

"Yeah, but I found that I'm really not very good at these things. I just want to avoid losing money. If I were to think about it, we might soon fail because of my lack of care." Lu Yanhe exposed his shortcomings and said sincerely Explain, "You are much sharper than me on who to cooperate with, how to cooperate, and how to distribute benefits."

Chen Siqi: "...I won't let you do this to throw away the shopkeeper."

Lu Yanhe said: "The right person does the right thing."

Chen Siqi was silent for a moment and said: "As long as Yemai.com doesn't ask for the ownership of this book, I will be inclined to cooperate with them. The right book must be placed on the right platform to achieve the effect of one plus one greater than two. "

Lu Yanhe laughed and breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great. I'm really worried that you don't want to cooperate with Yemai.com."

"I'm not stupid. They were just a bit stingy. They didn't achieve the goal I expected, but they didn't cheat us either." Chen Siqi said, "Moreover, 10 yuan is enough to produce this book, but there is a high probability that the two of us will If you have to pay for your ideals, you won’t make much money.”

"If in the future this book can be turned into a book series and start making profits as Sister Zi

Chen Siqi raised the corners of his mouth, "So generous?"

This book is said to be written by two people. In fact, what really made this book possible was Lu Yanhe’s network resources and influence. Otherwise, Jiang Yuqian and the others would not be invited to write articles, and neither would Yemai.com. So happy to cooperate with them.

Chen Siqi never thought of making a [-]-[-] profit from Lu Yanhe.

Lu Yanhe said: "Originally, the two of us did it together."

Chen Siqi nodded and said, "Okay, then I can trust you."

"Yeah." Lu Yanhe nodded.

"Now we have one more thing to do."

"what's up?"

"Choosing a name for this book is also a name for this book series." Chen Siqi said.Lu Yanhe asked: "Do you have any ideas?"

Chen Siqi: "This is not nonsense, I don't believe you don't have any ideas."

Lu Yanhe laughed.

Indeed, since I had the idea of ​​making a magazine, how could I not have thought about what kind of name I would give the magazine?

Lu Yanhe asked: "What name are you thinking of?"

Chen Siqi: "You speak first."

Lu Yanhe said: "It's actually a very common name, "Jump Up"."

"Jump up?"

"Yeah." Lu Yanhe nodded, "When I was writing a composition before, I wrote a sentence. I remember it very well. At that time, I wanted to change my mediocre life. When I wrote, I didn't want to look at the world map and imagine the environment boringly. In the future of traveling the world, I want to jump into the depths of the universe and go to the black hole to see if there is a new continent on the other side."

The moment Lu Yanhe saw that he had finished speaking, the way Chen Siqi looked at him changed.

"I quite like what you said." Chen Siqi said.

"I liked it too, so I always remember it."

"Let's use this sentence as the introduction to the first issue." Chen Siqi said, "The name is "Jump Up", which is pretty good."

"Then what was the name you thought of before?" Lu Yanhe asked.

Chen Siqi shook his head, "I like you better, so I won't tell you."

She took out a pen and paper and wrote down what Lu Yanhe had just said on the paper, and then wrote "jump up" at the end.

"Lu Yanhe, I suddenly have some feelings for this name now. When I wrote it, I especially hope that it will last forever."

"Then let's work hard." Lu Yanhe smiled seriously.
-
In the next few days, Lu Yanhe began a miserable journey to push for manuscripts.

Chen Siqi sent him a message: I will leave it to you to push for those people's manuscripts. I have sent invitation letters to some authors I think are suitable to see if they are willing to contribute.

Lu Yanhe asked: To which authors did you send invitation letters?

Chen Siqi sent over a list, and Lu Yanhe found that he didn't know anyone.

Chen Siqi said: These are some authors I saw on the Internet who told stories about their student days and their posts were very popular. I would like to ask them to write about their student days in more detail and richly, and maybe I can receive good manuscripts.

Lu Yanhe felt that Chen Siqi's idea was quite new.Many people look for manuscripts online, but few use online content to invite authors to create richer content.

What surprised Lu Yanhe was that the first person to submit the manuscript was Song Linxin.

It only took Song Linxin five days to send the article she wrote.

Lu Yanhe didn't know why it happened so fast and was surprised.

When I opened it, I saw that Song Linxin was talking about her experience playing in a band in high school.

Lu Yanhe immediately took Song Linxin's article to Li Zhibai: "She has already submitted the manuscript, and you haven't written a word yet!"

Li Zhibai: "Yan Liang hasn't written it yet!"

"He has already written half of it!" Lu Yanhe decided to use tormenting tactics against Li Zhibai, "Why don't you write a beginning for me today? Brother Li, Brother Bai, Brother!"

Li Zhibai looked worried: "Okay, okay."

Lu Yanhe saw him sitting in front of the computer, unable to write a word for a long time. He tried really hard, but it didn't work. Lu Yanhe realized that he might have to think of another way.

He thought of a way to help Li Zhibai write it, but when he thought about it, he couldn't do it. He would still write his own column for this column. The styles of the two articles would be too similar and there would be problems.

Then change it to an interview style?
The question is, who can do the interview?

Moreover, this column uses the title No. 1 to describe the story more immersively.

Moreover, people who are not familiar with Li Zhibai cannot hear some real stories from him.That's just the way he is. People who are not close to him, even if they are professional reporters, he will just deal with it.
-
In the process of urging the manuscript, Lu Yanhe also thought about the fact that the current content of his book is too little. There are enough famous figures, but not enough content.

In addition to the people invited by Chen Siqi, other manuscripts are also needed.

Lu Yanhe suddenly thought of his classmates, Lin Yu and Bai Yu.

As a "hexagon warrior" among students, Linyu is also a class monitor and a top student. Maybe we can ask her to write an article?
There is also Bai Yu. She often writes novels, and Luo Zicheng even read passages in front of the whole class. In fact, everyone knows that Bai Yu has a dream of writing.

Lu Yanhe hesitated for a moment and decided to invite them for manuscripts.

Let’s talk about the inappropriateness of the manuscript, but since we want to make a Mook that is truly related to our student days, how can we not create it without real students?

Lu Yanhe immediately sent messages to both Linyu and Bai Yu.

When sending it to Linyu, Lu Yanhe was still a little worried that Linyu would refuse, because Linyu had a competition in August and she was preparing for it and the time was very tight. But Linyu immediately agreed and asked if there was a word count requirement.

Lu Yanhe said that about two thousand to four thousand is more suitable.

Because it is an e-book, compared with paper books, there are fewer layout restrictions, and the control of word count is not as high.

Linyu agreed immediately.

Bai Yu's first reaction was: Me?Can I?

She has little confidence in herself.

Lu Yanhe didn't dare to say yes at this time. He would definitely use the manuscript: "Write it first, okay?"Now I can't promise that I will definitely use your manuscript. This is an official electronic Mook. When the time comes, the short stories of Liu Jiazhen and Mingyin will also be published in the first issue, but I hope to be able to publish your creations on it. I I also need your support.

Bai Yu: Okay, let me try.

Lu Yanhe breathed a sigh of relief.
-
Bai Yu put down the phone, everyone was numb.

Ever since her college entrance examination results came out, the atmosphere at her home has become very stressful because she only got into an ordinary university and didn't meet her parents' expectations at all.

Until now, her parents have never smiled at her.

She cried several times herself. Did she fail the exam?Not necessarily, the usual results are like that.

But it is true that as soon as the college entrance examination results come out, the lifelong pressure comes.

Bai Yu himself was also depressed. He stayed in his room reading a book and never went out.

Suddenly, there were two knocks on the door.

"Your dad and I won't be at home for dinner tonight. You can make some yourself." Her mother said outside the door.

"Yeah." Bai Yu responded.

She heard her mother and her father going to the entrance to change their shoes.

Knowing that they were going out, Bai Yu felt relieved.

I can take a breather from this low pressure.

At this time, her father's voice came in from outside the door: "I got those damn scores, but I still stayed in the room all day long. I didn't read the book well, and my brain went crazy."

"Okay, just stop saying a few words. What else can you do now that it's like this?" Her mother also had a good tone and persuaded her father.

No more sounds came from the two people.

The door opens, then closes.

She was the only one left at home.

Bai Yuku sat in a chair and was in a daze for a long time.

By the time she came to her senses, the sunset had already set and entered her room diagonally.

There was no light on in the room, half of it was in darkness.

The tears on Bai Yu's face had dried.

She took a deep breath, created a new document, looked at the white document interface, and put her hands on the keyboard.

The sound of fingers tapping on the keyboard sounded.

"She knew she didn't do well in the exam, but when the results came out, she still felt an uncontrollable pain in her heart. The atmosphere at home was very bad. No one spoke during the meal. She felt very sorry and stopped raising her head. . On such a bad day, one rainy afternoon, at two o'clock, she walked into a convenience store wearing shorts and a T-shirt, and she met the boy behind a row of shelves."

……

For readers, reading is like entering a dream and gaining comfort from other people's dreams.In fact, for the author, creation is actually creating dreams, and getting comfort from the dreams he creates.

Bai Yu doesn't know whether his manuscript will eventually be adopted.

But at least it's an opportunity.

She failed in the exam and couldn't get into a good university. Can her persistence in writing bring her a glimmer of new hope? (End of chapter)
