["Xi Muxin" changed to "Xi Muhan", "Yan Fu" changed to "Yan Fei", I hope everyone knows]

　　 Seeing the zombie face enter the editorial department, everyone in the room stopped their work and looked at him intently.

　　 the editor-in-chief stood up involuntarily.

　　 The editorial department is only the "selector" of the content. The editorial department considers which comics can be made as single-line books, but how many copies of the first edition, as well as the subsequent printing quantity, sales, etc., are all handled by the sales department.

　　 Take Shen Xin's signature book sales as an example. The editorial department puts forward its own needs, and the specific implementation is carried out by the sales department.

　　 It’s just that few people can get this kind of treatment. From this point of view, "Y’s" has indeed been recognized by the magazine.

　　 "How many copies are sold now?" The editor-in-chief asked when the zombie face walked in a little bit.

　　 "The market has digested 70%. The manager asked me to inform you that "Y’s" will be republished by another 50,000 copies," said the zombie face.

　　 70% sales rate is not common, because books have to go through printing, transportation and other processes, which requires a certain amount of time to prepare. Therefore, under normal circumstances, if you sell about 50% of the single book, it is necessary to prepare a reprint to avoid a blank period in the middle.

　　 The sales department did not expect that the magazine would sell so fast, and when it was reflected, it had sold nearly 70%.

　　 "Huh? So fast?" Yan Fei asked in surprise.

　　 "There is no way, this time not only the sales in Yunhai City are more, but the bookstores outside Yunhai also have good sales." said the zombie face.

　　The editor-in-chief clapped his hands excitedly, "Tonight, I will have a treat and go to the pub for a drink."

　　 Manga that will be reprinted in three days is rarely seen in the history of "NewWorld".

　　 "The editor-in-chief is wise!"

　　 "I won’t be drunk today."

　　 "By the way, why don't you call Mrs. Shen?"

The editor-in-chief of 　　 also looked at Yan Fei.

　　 "May I ask? But it is unlikely that it will be New Year's Day soon. Teacher Shen may also want to draw more manuscripts and take a day off."

　　 "It's also... the manuscript fee, the contract is about to be signed, right? Both the contract fee and the manuscript fee will go up." The editor-in-chief said excitedly.

　　 "Oh... well, good, if there is no problem, I will finalize this matter with him today." Yan Fei said quickly.

　　 "By the way, there is also the desk calendar. From the current point of view, readers seem to have a higher demand for this aspect." The editor-in-chief thought of this again.

　　 "Well, production has already started, the first batch of 5,000 copies. We don't have much experience in making peripherals, so it's better to be conservative."

　　 "Also, after all, the next issue of the magazine will give away a simple desk calendar, which may make some people change their minds."

The editor-in-chief of 　　 nodded again and again. The desk calendar is not just needed. Perhaps with a donated desk calendar, fewer people will need a desk calendar like "Y’s". Anyway, the purpose of the hype has been achieved, even if the sales volume is average, it doesn't matter.

　　 Yan Fei opened her mouth slightly, but nodded helplessly when she thought of the difficulties of the sales department.

　　 From her point of view, the production of 5,000 copies is indeed too few, because the readers of the single-volume books are not consistent with the readers of the magazines. But the manga artist's income is mainly in royalties, not in peripherals. Even if there are a few thousand copies, it is not a big problem.

Of course, the most important reason is that she does not have the power to negotiate terms with the sales department, and the only authorized editor-in-chief-Yan Fei glanced at the little fat man who was talking with the zombie face-still seemed too weak when communicating with other departments. Up.

　　 Yan Fei left the office and called Shen Xin.

After the release of 　　 the single book, Shen Xin was also busy a lot. The accumulated manuscripts had to rely on overtime to complete. Shen Xin only asked Yan Fei and the editorial department’s invitation.

　　 "The next issue, can I be absent?" Shen Xin asked.

　　 "Impossible, "Y’s" separate editions are selling big. You should try harder at this time! Lack of publication or something, this is a privilege that only elderly cartoonists enjoy." Yan Fei retorted.

Who said this? Middle-aged cartoonists can also, such as... an old thief.

　　 "In the evening, I will go to your house to see you to discuss the contract, and by the way, the short magazine review."

　　 After hanging up, Yan Fei returned to the editorial department.

　　 The zombie face has left, and the atmosphere of the entire editorial department is completely different. The main reason is that you don’t have to worry about being angry with the editor-in-chief.

The editor-in-chief of 　　 called out Yan Fei alone and re-finalized Shen Xin's contract.

　　 At eight o'clock in the evening, Yan Fei knocked on Shen Xin's door with the finalized contract and short comics that needed to be reviewed.

　　 Xi Muhan opened the door.

　　 Yan Fei was taken aback when she saw the little girl.

"Today is Friday?"

　　 "No, take the exam tomorrow, and rest tonight." Xi Muhan obediently took the cake from Yan Fei, "Sister Yan, why are you still buying cake?"

　　 "The first volume of the new book "Y’s" will be reprinted soon. Of course, congratulations in advance. From now on, you will be the rich little woman." Yan Fei pinched Xi Muhan's little nose.

　　 "With Brother Xin by my side, I have never been wronged?" Xi Muhan wrinkled his nose, "Give me the stack of documents, too?"

　　 "This is a short comic that needs to be reviewed by Mr. Shen. If it is heavy, I won't give it to you."

　　 At this time, Shen Xin also came out of the studio.

　　 "Congratulations, the reprint is out." Yan Fei smiled.

　　 "That's also thanks to Sister Yan." Shen Xin also smiled.

"Let’s talk about business first." After Yan Fei sat down, she first took out a document. "This is the contract for next year. The editor-in-chief asked me to hand it over to you. Starting from January 1, single-chapter drawings will cost 400 yuan a month. Zhang, the color page is 600, and the contract fee increased by 10%. I originally wanted him to increase the royalties, but the editor-in-chief said that it is best to get the newcomer award so that he can mention the royalties to the president. In other respects, just and The last one is exactly the same."

　　 Shen Xin read it roughly, and it was indeed the same as the previous one, so he signed it.

　　 "Next, it's this short story competition." Yan Fei put away the contract, "Let me talk about a bad thing first, Qiao Yu's short story is not very good. Has he ever looked for you?"

　　 "Well, I have read his manuscript, and I don't think it is suitable for publication in a juvenile magazine." Shen Xin nodded and said.

　　 Qiao Yu’s cartoon is a dark fairy tale about a group of dwarfs who often pretend to be injured, tricking pedestrians by the roadside into a hut deep in the forest to commit murder. Even, there is a description of the two brothers and sisters trapped in the cave, holding each other's swords, and only one person survived. Although the ending of the story is that the hunter hunts down the dwarves and justice is done, the content of the story is too dark.

　　 Therefore, Shen Xin suggested that Qiao Yu change her name slightly.

　　 Qiao Yu believes that this story is a warning to the world not to take the words of others as true, which is deeply enlightening.

　　 That time meeting was similar to leaving unhappy.

　　 "He gave me the manuscript." Yan Fei sighed.

　　 "He passed my brother?" Xi Muhan asked in surprise.

　　 "It's not too much, right? The normal program should be handed over to the editor before it can be handed over to me. For this story, do I have reservations? I am not sure whether it can become popular."

　　As long as comics are interesting, people will watch them. The content in the story is not very friendly to middle and high school students, at least the life and death choice of brothers and sisters should be cut off.

　　 It’s not uncommon for magazine editors to see missteps, so Shen Xin can't guarantee that she doesn't.

　　 After all, it is not one or two people who determine the success or failure of a work, but the reader.

"Is that right? Don't interfere with his manuscript. I will discuss with him in detail. If it is qualified, I will tacitly agree with you and submit it directly to the editor-in-chief. If it is not qualified, I will tell him clearly." Yan Philip was a little tangled.

　　 Shen Xin nodded.

　　 Yan Fei meant obviously, not wanting Shen Xin to be a villain, but letting the magazine come forward and reject Qiao Yu.

　　 "In this case, I only have one condition. I hope you don't irritate him when you tell him this." Shen Xin said.

　　 Assistant and "Y’s" have run in well. If Qiao Yu is hit and makes some extraordinary moves, he will also have a headache.

　　 "Don't worry, I know what to do." Yan Fei nodded slightly.
