I am a writer

Chapter 54 Essential 【Recommendation Request Collection】

The weather is beautiful, and it rained heavily all day on Monday.

Outdoor physical education classes are basically canceled, and he only needs to help take care of him indoors for the last few days to be liberated.

The students played in pairs with table tennis balls, while others sat by the wall and watched their mobile phones quietly without being disturbed at all.

Qin Chuan stood in the corridor staring at the time on his phone in a daze, and the get out of class would be over in a few minutes.

Just now a call from a mobile phone number in Shanghai was not answered. According to the editor Big Face Mao, it should be a staff member of the legal department.

The copyright department could only take one side of the deal.

"get out of class is over in a few minutes, everyone go to eat early, get out of class is over!"

When Qin Chuan walked to the door of the table tennis room, the students walked out happily.

It's always good to get out of class early.

Although the university cafeteria is open longer than the middle school cafeteria, you can get what you want if you go early.

He himself also planned to have dinner in the teacher's cafeteria before going back.

Today, Xie Yunmei's colleague's son's wedding banquet, because of this incident, Qin Chuan made several insinuations, but unfortunately still did not get a response.

The copyright matter involved a lot of Qin Chuan's energy.

Coupled with the need to go to work every day, the time spent on novels will be less.

The new book will be on the VIP shelves in a few days, and if the copyright issue cannot be resolved in time, it will have to be postponed.

Quality issues must be taken seriously!

Star City University of Science and Technology has several canteens and a dedicated teacher canteen.

Usually there are more teachers having lunch at noon, but not many at night.

Those who eat are usually young teachers and teachers who have classes in the evening, and the rest have already returned home from get off work.

University teachers are different from middle school teachers. People in the same department usually have offices next to each other.

Anyway, Qin Chuan didn't know anyone at a glance, so he happened to be happy and relaxed.

On the phone, the editor Big Face Cat was unexpectedly still online.

"Just now Li Xiang from the legal department called you and said that you are in class. Are you a teacher?"

Facing the editor's question, Qin Chuan put down his chopsticks and typed back: "Yes, I am a physical education teacher who does not teach Chinese."

Xu Qiang behind the Big Face Cat account sighed: "No wonder I can write so many words every day, so I am a physical education teacher!"

Qin Chuan wanted to tell the editor that the physical education teacher was not as relaxed and fun as he imagined.

At the beginning, I thought so too, but in the end I was so tired that I almost collapsed.

"The physical education teacher is also very busy. You only see your own class, but you don't have the physical education class, and there are others to attend. Now my mind is full of film and television adaptation rights, and I don't have time to write manuscripts! "

With the brain overclocked, it can take an hour to write [-] words at best.

The next step is to return to normal, and the water grinder generally writes another [-] words, which is exactly the same as the state of the previous life.

Squeeze hard to get the rest out.

I clearly have an outline and a detailed outline, but I just can't write it, as if all the cells in my body are resisting.

And at 10:30 p.m., those resistances disappeared in an instant.

The sealed inspiration will be unsealed at this time, like a spring.

"To be honest, your luck and quality of this book are good. With so much attention now, if the quality of the follow-up is not good, it will be regarded as a hype, an embroidered pillow. Such a good start, don't take it as a book. One-shot deal."

Xu Qiang cherishes talents very much.

Every year there are always new people who have the potential to become gods, but for various reasons they always fail to ignite the divine fire.

Before it even hit the shelves, "Life Grows and Hates Water Changdong" has already been on the trending searches, bloodbathed the forums, reached the top of the hit list and blade list, and sold the film adaptation rights to the most famous film company in China.

How many new works of great masters can't reach this level!

Qin Chuan also agreed with this point of view. He typed and wrote: "Yes, I want to get the contract done as soon as possible now, so as not to keep disturbing my mind. I will contact Li Xiang later to hear the opinions and opinions of professionals."

"That's right, write it carefully and it will explode when it is published."

"Hopefully, I think the outbreak is a bit suspenseful."

Qin Chuan felt a little guilty.

There are only six chapters left in the manuscript, and there will be fewer tossing around like this!
Seeing the editor's TT chat avatar dimming, Qin Chuan also quickly emptied the food on the dinner plate.

Walking around the corner of the campus, looking at the youthful students, he felt much younger.

During dinner time, there happened to be no young lovers having sex in the corner of the lawn.

He sat on the chair and called Li Xiang back on his mobile phone.

Before it gets dark, let's finish talking quickly so that others can go home from get off work.

"I'm sorry, I was in class earlier, so I couldn't talk much, so I can only let you stay and work overtime." Qin Chuan apologized, and then directly talked about the current predicament.

"It's okay, we are used to working overtime. I have reviewed the contract you drafted with Lie Yan Films with my colleagues before, and the terms in it are not detailed enough. For example, after the contract is signed, how will the copyright fee be distributed? Also, the film is being sold to the video website Or when you are a TV station, can you get income, do you have a commission for releasing DVDs, when will you be given the withholding personal income tax certificate, will the other party invite you to participate in the premiere or exhibit at domestic and foreign film festivals, etc. Copyright The fee is the most important item, but you didn’t even reach an agreement on this. You said that it could be reduced from 1500 million, but the draft contract was only 800 million, which is so much less..."

Crackling, Li Xiang spoke extremely fast.

It's like a squall and a rainstorm!

Qin Chuan kept nodding. Professionals who have been dealing with copyright transactions for a long time are much more powerful and considerate very carefully.

It's just that he talked too much, and he couldn't remember it anymore, so he could only listen to the call recording later.

"According to the version of the contract we often use, I added the conditions you reached with Flame Films to it. There are some terms that are not mentioned. Now I send it to your email. You can take a look. If you think there is no problem, then Transfer it to Flame Films for negotiation."

"Thank you. I'll go take a look after I make the call."

Li Xiang on the other side of the phone added: "In fact, it is relatively weak to conduct business negotiations with the company in an individual capacity, especially for writers. If you are not careful, you may be cheated. So I suggest you entrust it to our website, and our website will Come forward to negotiate and will never harm your interests."

"I don't need it for now, maybe you will be needed in the next copyright transaction."

Qin Chuan clearly expressed his refusal.

It is too cruel to entrust the website with a 50% commission, and it will directly hurt the muscles and bones!
What's more, the headquarters is in the Shanghai stock market, which is far away from Star City, which is not convenient.

What to look for is to find a writer agency in Star City. It is more convenient to talk about something in person, and the commission is generally only 10%, or even lower!
Leaving work to professionals is the greatest advantage of social division of labor.

Writers concentrate on polishing their works and hand them over to agents to handle copyright.

Most writers are not good at socializing, let alone dealing with complex copyright authorizations. At this time, the presence of an agent is crucial.

Qin Chuan believes that the best state of a writer is of course to continue to create without distraction!
