The editor-in-chief of frowned, folded his arms across his chest, and fell into thought.
The authors who can get the color pages are almost all the old authors of "NewWorld". They have certain contacts in the magazine. It is really difficult to get the color pages from these people.
The editor-in-chief glanced down at Shen Xin's name, and then at the color page arrangement within a month. After a long period of thought, he turned to the middle-aged editor and asked, "Lao Li, the color page of "The Boy Who Chased the Wind" was changed into a volume. In the color page, you can talk to Teacher Gong when the time comes. Yan Fu, the first chapter of "Y\'s" will be published in the fourth week of the magazine. You will get the color page in the third week. ."
"Yes." Yan Fu nodded quickly.
"By the way... the contract, don't forget, the contract must be knocked out for me. Don't be poached." The editor-in-chief reminded.
"...Ok, I know."
Yan Fu rubbed his hands, tangled in his heart, how to talk to Shen Xin about the contract.
"Well, then, start discussing "I can meet you everywhere"." The editor-in-chief looked at Xiao Zhang.
Xiao Zhang gave a light cough as he was about to speak, and Yan Fu raised his hand again.
"Editor in chief, I have one more thing!"
Xiao Zhang had a black line, staring at Yan Fu with sharp eyes, and couldn't help but want to explode.
Is there anything you can't say in one breath?
Yan Fu ignored Xiao Zhang's gaze and other people's gazes. Instead, he looked at the editor-in-chief directly, "Shen Xin's conditions at home are not very optimistic. I shouldn't be able to rent a studio or hire an assistant. If the magazine wants to If he wants him to publish the manuscript as soon as possible, shouldn't it be convenient for him?"
The editor-in-chief frowned slightly, "Yan Fu, you are an employee of the magazine, and you should consider it more for the magazine."
"After Shen Xin signed the contract, he was also working for the magazine. His working environment has improved, but we will get the benefits." Yan Fu asked.
The editor-in-chief kept tapping the table with the fingers of one hand while the other was holding his chin. After a long time, he said to the deputy editor: "You can find a studio for help, and two more assistants. Salary...magazine. Put it forward first, wait until his contribution fee is down, and then deduct the expenses."
The deputy editor nodded.
"Next, are you okay?" The editor-in-chief took a look at Yan Fu.
Yan Fu shook his head quickly, "Nothing."
Xiaoli, who is sitting next to him, secretly gave Yan Fu a thumbs up. To get so many "benefits" for newcomers, only Yan Fu in the entire editorial department can do it.
Yan Fu smiled and said nothing.
...
"I'm so nervous, I don't know if I can pass?"
Knowing that this afternoon, you can know whether Shen Xin's comics can be serialized, and Xi Muxin has no idea of part-time work. He sat in the living room all afternoon, restless.
Shen Xin poured boiling water twice, and when he saw Xi Muxin's nervous face, he comforted her, "Don't worry, you can definitely get through."
But before Yan Fu's call came, the tension in Xi Muxun's heart could not be relieved.
Finally, at almost three o'clock, Yan Fu called.
"Congratulations, passed! Coloring page...I will go over now and tell you about the contract." Yan Fu finished speaking concisely and hung up the phone.
"How is it?" Xi Muxin looked at Shen Xin expectantly.
Shen Xin grinned and gave a thumbs up, "It's over."
"awesome!"
Xi Muxin screamed, and fell into Shen Xin's arms the next moment.
Shen Xin's face blushed instantly, and he didn't know where to put both hands.
Xi Muxin quickly noticed something wrong, and quickly separated from Shen Xin, blushing from his neck all the way to the base of his ears.
"I'm going to buy some vegetables." Xi Muxin didn't dare to look at Shen Xin, so he hurried out of the house.
I can see that the little girl is in a pretty good mood.
Shen Xin poured a sip of tea, calming down a little bit.
serialization... finally serialization...
Shen Xin sat weakly in the chair.
He knows that for a long time to come, he will focus all his energy on "Y\'s", maybe he won't spend too much time in school. If he drops out of school because of this, Shen Xin has no choice but to accept it.
In fact, even the most sincere person in "Dream Eater" chose to drop out of school in the second grade, and Shen Xin was also ready to drop out.
If you can get a degree certificate and a graduation certificate, of course it is the best thing, but it still depends on whether you have extra energy.
Xi Muxun walked outside for more than an hour, bought vegetables and beef, his expression returned to normal, but when he saw Shen Xin, his cheeks were slightly hot.
About ten minutes later, the doorbell rang again.
Shen Xin opened the door and saw Yan Fu with a smile on his face.
"Congratulations." Yan Wei narrowed his eyes.
"Sister Yan has worked hard. In order to get the coloring page, you should have gone through a fierce battle, right?"
"Which is'Fighting'? No one can fight." Yan Fu followed Shen Xin into the living room.
Xi Muxun heard Yan Fu's voice, and quickly came out of the kitchen and bowed deeply to Yan Fu, "Thank you, sister."
"Thank me for what? The main reason is that the name is good, otherwise, even if my tongue is full of flowers, I can't get the coloring page. By the way, Shen Xin, how is your coloring level?" Yan Fu remembered this.
"It's okay. After all, I am also an art major. Besides, don't you have "Witch"? Isn't the cover also a color page?" Shen Xin poured a glass of boiling water for Yan Fu.
"That kind of level...Is it okay, I don't think it can compare to the "Water Dragon".
Chen Zijiao's pen name is "Dragon Playing in the Water", and Yan Fu simplified it and simply called it "Water Dragon".
"Of course I am better now than then, so don't worry."
"Okay, since you said that, I won't say anything more. Three weeks later, I must hand in the manuscript of the first episode. You have to hurry up. Okay, let's start talking about the contract now?" Yan Fu I took out two documents from the document bag and handed them to Shen Xin, "After both parties sign and seal, we will leave one copy for you, and save the other copy in the magazine."
Shen Xin nodded, glanced at the contract, frowning while reading.
After more than ten minutes, Shen Xin read the contract again, and then sighed, "This contract is from District 11, right?"
"Do you know this kind of contract?" Yan Fu asked in surprise.
Shen Xin did not answer, but rubbed his chin.
At first, he thought that the contract in this world was a common contract for binding works, that is to say, after signing, he and the magazine only signed a comic of "Y\'s". During the contract period, he can draw comics for other magazines, but he can change his pseudonym.
Now that he read the contract, he can be sure that this is the infamous "exclusive contract system." This was originally used by "jump", but there was no "jump" in this world, but it was found by "Leap", and the magazines in District 11 rushed to follow suit.
To put it simply, he would not be able to draw comics for other magazines during the contract period, even if he was cut in half. He could only receive a low contract fee. Therefore, the power of editors is very large, and correspondingly, the voice of cartoonists is also reduced.
"Now, all domestic magazine agencies have this kind of contract. To be honest, compared with magazine agencies, cartoonists are indeed a disadvantaged group." Yan Fu lowered his head and did not look at Shen Xin.
