The reborn manotaku
Chapter 023
“I don’t have a phone at home, so I’ll come soon when I ride back.”
Li Huai left after speaking, and interpreted a slightly nervous genius teenager to the fullest.
“Haha, don’t worry, classmate Li Huai will come in a while, Xiao Zhang, pour a few cups of tea.”
Principal Lin greeted this group of people with a smile, covering Li Huai while promoting his school by the way, “Our No. 1 Middle School has a long history and attaches great importance to the all-round development of students, everyone came to listen to Teacher Cui talk about Li Huai’s excellent performance.
“Hmm… Classmate Li Huai usually studies hard, never fights and falls in love…”
Old Cui, who was still a little ashamed, couldn’t help but stammer.
As soon as Li Huai hurriedly walked out of the building, Cheng Yuanyuan, who was waiting below, rushed up and asked nervously: “Who is it, it’s not my uncle.”
“Don’t worry.” Li Huai was full of smiles, “My novel is on fire, and someone came to the door and wanted to sign a contract to publish it.”
The little goblin turned to surprise and jumped on Li Huai,
“Yeah!
“It’s still at school, pay attention to the influence.” Li Huai smiled, “Hurry up and go to class, look back for you.”
Upstairs, lawyer Zhang Zhengyao leaned against the window, just in time to witness everything, he raised his eyes, and the interest in his eyes became even stronger.
This teenager, who has been pretending just now, does not seem to be so simple…
Riding a motorcycle, I turned left and right and came to a rehearsal room in the compound of the troupe.
The inner panel is loud and tactful, the hammer is quick and clear, Li Guoqiang is hanging his long beard and shaking his head and pacing, ”
It’s not easy to sit alone, I think back to An Lushan…” The
troupe did not eat dry food every day, they took on a task, and they were rehearsing “Hitting the Golden Bough” these two days.
“Dad, shh, shh.” Li Huai stood at the door and waved his hand.
After Li Guoqiang saw him, he waved his hand to end the rehearsal, walked over with a long beard, picked up the posture and jokingly sang: ”
Seeing that Er today ~ returned early, could it be that he broke into the world and threw disaster into the world~”
Old Li seemed to be in a good mood, and pulled Changyin to pose.
“Dad.”
“Hmm.”
“I wrote a novel.”
“I know.”
“Someone came to sign the contract and wanted to publish it.”
“What?!”
Old Li’s eyes widened, and his beard fell.
Li Huai quickly picked up the long beard and told the cause and effect while sorting it out.
Lao Li didn’t react for a long time, and his eyes were stunned.
At this moment, Liu Hongming’s shout came from inside: “Old Li, can’t you line up today?”
“Volleyball!”
Li Guoqiang was inexplicably excited, “Haven’t you always laughed at my lack of strict discipline, my son has become a great writer!”
After speaking, he pulled Li Huai and left, “Go, let’s go and sign the words first, and set up wine to celebrate the success in the evening.”
“Oh, Dad, it’s not as simple as you think.”
Li Huai quickly grabbed Li Guoqiang and told the twists and turns in it.
“You mean those people want to take advantage of us, but they have to cooperate?”
Li Guoqiang suddenly realized, and then shook his head, “It was an honor for us to publish books then, and now it has become a business.”
Li Huai nodded, “Dad, this is my future wife, you have to clear your head.”
“That’s easy.”
Li Guoqiang waved his hand, “The business of the Chinese people is in the wine field, and we will talk about it when I am all confused at night.”
This is a good idea, Li Huai nodded with satisfaction, maybe it was genetics, father and son are all kilogram-level alcohol…
…
Tianfu Restaurant, the best restaurant in Dongyang County.
Don’t ask how a restaurant in a small northern county called the name of Shudi, Li Huai doesn’t know, probably because foreign monks are good at chanting.
At this time, it was 7:30 p.m., and the atmosphere in the private room on the third floor was particularly red.
“Come on, everyone try it, the red stewed lamb in this house tastes good.”
Li Guoqiang greeted the visitors with a red face, looking bold and hospitable.
Lao Li went to school and didn’t talk much nonsense, thanked everyone for their appreciation of his son, and then decided on tonight’s banquet.
The reason is also very strong: business is business, and if you don’t entertain well, it’s not interesting enough.
Why, people from big cities look down on our small local people?
These people were unable to come down by Li Guoqiang’s local routine, so they all had to come to the banquet.
Fortunately, after three rounds of drinking, seeing that everyone tacitly agreed not to talk about business, they gradually let down their guard.
Li Bo tasted the lipstick stewed mutton, and found that it was actually very palatable, and couldn’t help but praise: “It’s still local food, if you let the ‘street sweeper’ know, maybe you dare to come and taste it.”
The other two website editors are not from Beijing, and they are a little unclear.
Zhang Hongqi, the editor of the Literature and Art Publishing House, is an old fried stick who travels south and north, and said with a smile: “You mean CCTV’s documentary director Cheng Xiaoqing, I heard that no matter where you want to find a place for that dinner in Beijing, you have to ask his opinion.”
Li Bo smiled and nodded, “So strange people are everywhere, just like our classmate Li Huai…”
Obviously, he wanted to introduce the topic to Li Huai.
“He’s a bear kid, don’t boast.”
Li Guoqiang interrupted him directly, “It’s not interesting to drink like this, come, I’ll teach everyone a local wine order, just drink a little each time, just be happy…”
Li Huai secretly snickered next to him, the local wine order is to drink less every time, but play and play at least one pound per person.
He somewhat overestimated the alcohol tolerance of this young body, and just now accompanied the three rounds and two twos, and it was already a little fluttering.
Li Huai looked at the lawyer Zhang Zhengyao next to him, although this gold wire glasses had been smiling, but he didn’t talk much, as if he had been observing everyone.
“Lawyer Zhang, have you ever seen a clownfish, who is she?” Li Huai finally couldn’t help but ask.
Zhang Zhengyao smiled, “The customer specifically proposed to keep it secret, I think she must have her own reasons.”
Li Huai was a little disappointed, but then looked away and said with a smile: “Forget it, I don’t inquire anymore, it’s not easy to know oneself in life, and meeting is not necessarily a good thing.”
Zhang Zhengyao raised his glasses, “Where is the bathroom, are you going?”
Li Huai’s heart moved, “Of course, I have been holding back for a long time.
After that, he slipped out one after another.
Several other people were a little poured by Li Huai’s father, plus they played the game with red faces, and they didn’t notice the small movements of the two.
When he arrived at the corridor outside the door and found a secluded place, Zhang Zhengyao immediately said: “Classmate Li Huai, if you have any plans, you can tell me first so that we can negotiate in a targeted manner.”
For the person sent by this clownfish, Li Huai also basically trusted, nodded and said: “Electronic copyright and publishing rights can be discussed, but related derivatives, such as film and television, games and other copyrights, must not be relaxed.”
Zhang Zhengyao glanced at Li Huai with some surprise.
He has naturally done relevant investigations, and now the film and television industry is generally martial arts, historical and period dramas, and such themes cannot pass the review, and game adaptations are even more jokes, I don’t know why Li Huai values it so much.
But he just needs to do his own thing, thinking of this, Zhang Zhengyao nodded, “Okay, I know, if you start negotiating, you just have to pretend that you don’t understand anything, and the black face is all up to me.”
Li Huai was stunned, and then smiled, this lawyer is a little interesting.
After the two returned to the wine table, it seemed that nothing had happened, but Zhang Zhengyao seemed to have suddenly changed his personality, enthusiastically joined the battle, and probed his mouth without missing a trace.
Li Huai continued to pretend to be a shy teenager, humbly accepting the questions of his predecessors, and for a while made everyone let down their guard.
At this moment, Li Huai’s trouser pocket buzzed and shook. It was the
little goblin who was afraid that his boyfriend would have something to do in the past two days, and forced his mobile phone to him.
Open a look at the message: Is everything going well? I’m in the hallway.
Li Huai closed his phone and sneaked out.
As soon as the two met, Li hugged and kissed.
The little goblin quickly covered his mouth, “How do you drink so much wine, uncle doesn’t care about you.”
Li Huai smiled, “Don’t worry, I’m not an alcoholic.”
The two talked quietly for a while before Cheng Yuanyuan left, and when he left, he was not worried about asking him to go home and text him, and he waited for many nights.
The little goblin was originally quite arrogant, but since he fell in love, his heart was all on Li Huai, and he became a lot dumber.
Looking at Cheng Yuanyuan’s figure leaving, Li Huai smiled, originally longing to
indulge in flowers like those reborn predecessors, but found that he was really not that kind of person.
Perhaps, less desire, more happiness.
…
Li Guoqiang was very sophisticated, and the gang was confused, and he didn’t stand up for the corpse, and stumbled back to the hotel.
The purpose of this drink was actually to test and slow things down, and after returning in the evening, the father and son discussed with Zhang Zhengyao until midnight.
The next day, when these people woke up, they were first shocked and found that they were not confused to sign any contract before letting go.
After all, the Chinese are really playing this trick.
After the negotiations began, the harmonious atmosphere of last night was completely gone.
Most of these people used to deal directly with writers, and they fooled the past with a few words of praise, but here in Zhang Zhengyao, it was soft nails and hard nails touched back and forth, almost confused themselves, and only changed the contract three times.
But no one wants to leave, because the financial benefits of the book are secondary, and they value the impact of the bestseller. The first place in sales in the first half of the year
was the cold “Flying Boy”, if a more popular momentum is created in the second half of the year, it will definitely be an important node in the career.
In the end, several parties reached a mutual agreement.
Under the banyan tree, they obtained the hardcover book publishing rights of “The Legend of the Grave Robber”, and they fancy this name.
Both websites have acquired e-book rights, but correspondingly, Li Huai has also made concessions on the revenue point.
After all, their main purpose is to prepare for next year’s paid reading.
XX Literature and Art Publishing House obtained the publishing rights for the papercover book, and they mainly faced the tertiary market.
For Li Huai, the final film and television game adaptation rights have finally remained.
It seemed to be a happy situation, but Li Huai was forced to agree to some hype for them.
Although it is to make a name for himself, this feeling of being packaged as goods is really unpleasant.
After sending a few people away, Li Huai began to think about a problem for the first time.
How do you get the right to speak?
At the very least, make this situation of compromise at the mercy of others a little less…
