Reborn I will never be a dog lick

Chapter 53 Hug the thigh?

Around three o'clock, Ye Luojia sent a message to Xu Zhimu, asking him to go downstairs.

After getting dressed, Xu Zhimu walked out of the hotel and got into the red BMW under the complicated eyes of the front desk lady.

Ye Luojia took out a stack of documents and handed them to Xu Zhimu: "This is the drafting contract for the comic adaptation project. I have already written down all the requirements you made before. Check to see if there are any omissions."

"Thanks."

Xu Zhimu took it and found that the contract was more than twenty pages long, densely packed with text, with some normal contract procedures in the front, and the real things about copyright and profit sharing in the latter pages.

First of all, Xu Zhimu, as the copyright holder, enjoys 50% of the total net profit share, and the remaining 50% is divided between the website and related departments.

This ratio is quite good. After all, comic book adaptation is a complex project, and text work is only the most basic part of creating IP.

When the car stopped, Xu Zhimu also read the contract.

It could be said that it was carried out exactly in the direction he expected and the mutual interests of both parties were guaranteed. The contract was very high-quality. He raised his head and glanced at the aloof female editor in the rearview mirror.

Although he talks a little less, he is reliable enough in his work.

The sunglasses were always on her face, covering less than half of her face. Xu Zhimu never saw how old she was.

"Qidian Media Group... is really impressive."

Looking at the signboard on the building, Xu Zhimu praised it. He had no intention of becoming the richest man or a big entrepreneur in his life.

It is enough to have enough money in your hands to live on your own and achieve financial freedom. After all, making money is for happiness.

The saddest thing in the world is when someone dies and the money is not spent.

Ye Luojia parked the car in the parking space in front of the company. These parking spaces are usually set up by leaders for convenience.

Why do online editors have such a high status in the company?

"If you have any questions about the contract, you can raise it directly. If I can solve it, I will solve it for you on the spot." Although Ye Luojia's voice was calm, she naturally had the domineering air of a strong woman.

Entering the company, some employees subconsciously tensed up their bodies when they saw Ye Luojia, lowering their heads slightly to avoid some distance.

The more Xu Zhimu saw, the more something was wrong. Logically speaking, the editor of online articles did not hold a particularly high management position in the company. Why did he feel that he, the editor, had the aura of a leader?

After the two people walked away, the employees whispered: "Isn't that Manager Ye? Who is the boy following behind? He looks like a college student."

"This is the first time I've seen Manager Ye bring a boy into the company. He's quite handsome. Could he be a distant relative?"

"Who knows? Don't be fooled. If word gets out, you're going to pack up and get out..."

…

In the conference room, a middle-aged man was already waiting. When he saw Ye Luojia, he stood up and stretched out his hand: "It's been a long time, Mr. Ye."

Ye Luojia just nodded, ignored his extended hand, and sat directly at the main seat.

The man was a little embarrassed, but he didn't dare to feel any anger in his heart. After all, the other person was just an editorial supervisor on the surface, but his real background was not something he, a department head, could afford to offend.

"Xu Zhimu, this time I will be negotiating with you about the author who is responsible for the comic adaptation. This is the person in charge of the comic adaptation department. If you have any questions, just clarify them today." Ye Luojia briefly introduced the two parties.

The man had noticed Xu Zhimu for a long time, but he was too young. He seemed to be a senior in high school or a student who had just entered college.

I really don’t think about it in the direction of a great urban writer who is number one on the best-selling list.

"Are you the author of "I Hide My Fiancée for Three Years at the Beginning, My Dragon King Identity Was Still Exposed"?" The man was a little surprised. Although the age threshold for online articles is not very high, he does not have certain social experience to write a book.

It is difficult to write down some essence.

Although this novel can only be regarded as a no-brainer urban novel, some of the plots in it are difficult to control without real experience.

Of course, there is also a type of person who is a genius.

"It's me, what's your name?" Xu Zhimu took the initiative to reach out and hold the other person's hand that was still in the air.

"My surname is Zhang." There was a flash of appreciation in the man's eyes. In the awkward atmosphere just now, this young man found a way to step down gracefully. Most young people may not have such a discerning eye on this point:

"It's true that a hero appears in a boy. We have discussed your work internally for a long time. It still has high IP creation value. We look forward to our future cooperation."

Both parties exchanged a few polite words.

The man also took out a contract and began to explain its contents. Although both parties had already read it, they still had to go through the process.

It took a full hour for the man to turn to the last page of the contract, and then asked with a little curiosity: "You have proposed to recommend a painter yourself. May I ask if the painter you recommended has any relevant works so that you can learn about it in advance? After all, the quality of the illustrations is

It directly determines whether the comic adaptation can have higher commercial value, and I have to go back and give an explanation to the department."

Generally speaking, after the author hands over the copyright, the comic book adaptation department has almost all rights to adapt, after all, every line is like a mountain.

No matter how good your online writing is, you may not even be able to compare to an intern in the painting industry.

In the adaptation industry, they generally intentionally avoid the intervention of the original author. After all, commercial income is their ultimate goal.

but……

The man subconsciously glanced at the woman sitting in the main seat. The woman was holding a book and reading silently, but an invisible pressure was pressing on him.

After all, it was this person who opened the mouth, so the face of his comic editing department must be given...

Mentioning this...

Xu Zhimu is confident in his junior sister's painting skills, but it's hard to say whether it can meet the market demand.

After thinking about it, Xu Zhimu said: "If the artist I recommend is not qualified for your job within a month, I will not interfere with all comic book modification issues in the future."

The man paused, a little confused: "The comic book adaptation project is already in the preparation period, and one month is a long time."

Xu Zhimu was silent for a moment and said: "I can sign a betting contract with you. If the progress is delayed due to problems with the painter, I can give up 20% of the dividends."

The man was shocked. According to his estimate, this project would have at least more than 10 million in revenue, and this 20% amount would be close to 2 million.

Just to praise an unknown new painter, the price is too high.

Ye Luojia also turned his gaze sideways, looking thoughtfully at Xu Zhimu's side face with his eyes under his sunglasses.

"I think you can think about it again, after all..."

"No, just tell me if it's okay."

The man looked at the contract and thought about it. At this time, Ye Luojia put down the book in his hand and said in a cold voice: "That's it."

The man was stunned for a moment. He looked at the contract in his hand and wanted to say something, but then he glanced at Ye Luojia's gaze directed at him.

Although the eyes couldn't be seen, it still made the man swallow nervously.

Immediately he stood up and said with a smile: "It's okay, the rules are set by people, and trust is the basis of cooperation. We can wait for a month, which can be regarded as the sincerity of our comics department..."

Seeing the flattering smile on the man's face, Xu Zhimu glanced at the expressionless Ye Luojia.

Could it be that he held it on his lap?

There won’t be too many commercial plots, it’s mainly to pave the way for the future and start the college chapter immediately (again)
