Chapter 127 Everyone Is Dissatisfied

"Huh?"

Shen Xin was taken aback for a moment, but after a little thought, she understood the reason - the reader's participation.

When readers have the right to participate, they will have a sense of belonging to the comics, and the stickiness of "Y's" will be higher.

"What are you going to do?" Shen Xin also became interested.

"If 300,000 survey questionnaires can be sent from 500,000 copies of the booklet, then the recording of the third season of the radio drama will be started, otherwise it will not be recorded."

"But... what if you can't send 300,000 copies?" Shen Xin asked back.

After all, voting is a hassle.

"Young man, you are an expert at drawing comics, but you don't understand the operation. The sales data of the booklet is real, after all, there is a cost here. However, the number of questionnaires may be false." Song Tai Said meaningfully.

Shen Xin instantly understood that as long as the sales volume of the booklet is good, no matter whether 300,000 tickets are received or not, it will eventually become 300,000 tickets. In the final analysis, it was similar to swiping tickets, except that this time it was not Shen Xin swiping tickets, but the magazine "swiping tickets" for Shen Xin.

"Is that okay?" Shen Xin asked back.

Song Tai didn't speak, just nodded silently.

Soon, Shen Xin felt relieved.

What readers want is radio dramas, what Shen Xin wants is the sales volume and popularity of booklets, and as for the president, he also wants the future of "New World".

To some extent, everyone gets what they need, which should be the most ideal result.

"Besides that, there is one more thing I want to discuss with you." Song Tai said.

Senior sister's matter?

Shen Xin's expression tightened, and she quickly looked at Song Tai.

"It's a book signing event. In addition to the 8,000 book signings ordered online, I also hope that you can go to Hongchuan. We are now in contact with the largest comic book store in Hongchuan-Jiman Bookstore, and strive for Start there again. If possible, I hope you can cooperate."

"Hongchuan?" Shen Xin looked at Song Tai in surprise.

"That's right. This is the first time a cartoonist from our magazine signed a book in Hongchuan, so the meeting may take a long time." Song Tai said.

This is the first time that Song Tai has shown his ambition to enter the domestic market.

Shen Xin pondered for a while, then nodded, this is a win-win cooperation, there is no need for him not to go.

Considering the distance between the sea of ​​clouds and Hongchuan, this trip will take at least three days, and the original manuscript must be drawn in advance.

"By the way, there is also the promotion of the senior sister. Can we talk?" Shen Xin asked.

"You...Mr. Shen, can you still choose to be in "New World" for the next book? If possible, I hope to sign another contract. Of course, the manuscript fee will continue to increase, and we will also pay for royalties and other content. We can talk." Song Tai took a deep breath and looked at Shen Xin nervously.

really……

Shen Xin frowned slightly, Song Tai's meaning was obvious, if he agreed, he would probably sign the contract for the next comic book today, this is not what he wanted.

After pondering for a long time, Shen Xin looked up at Song Tai.

"President, I don't want to lie to you, and I know that you have paid a lot for "Y's". But... unfortunately, we only have one book."

Song Tai's eyes widened, and his expression immediately showed fatigue.

"Then when will you..."Y's" end?" Song Tai continued to ask.

"More than a year."

There are a total of 15 volumes in the entire manga, and now only 3 volumes have been released.

Of course, this premise is that there are no accidents.

"That is to say, less than a hundred words?" Song Tai asked.

"It should be." Shen Xin said.

"I see... I hope that the propaganda that Ms. Ji mentioned can be used in more critical places. It is best that this propaganda can help the magazine one more time. I hope you can understand my difficulties,

If you go, I must find another successor. " Song Tai hesitated.

Huh... It really didn't work.

Shen Xin felt an indescribable frustration in her heart.

The positions of the two sides are different, and the choices will be different. There is nothing to say about this.

"However, other than that, if you have any needs, I will try my best to meet them." Song Tai promised.

"President, in the third quarter, how much support can you provide at most?" Shen Xin asked directly, not in the mood to circle around with Song Tai again.

"500,000 yuan. In addition to radio dramas, I can also provide 500,000 yuan in cash support."

"That is to say, between now and the end of September, I can still use up to 500,000 in cash?" Shen Xin asked.

"In addition, there are some activities, such as book signing. Or, if you have any good suggestions, we can also discuss them." Song Tai said hastily.

Five hundred thousand in cash is neither too much nor too little. In the face of "Punishment", "Hunting Abyss" and other competitors, this money should not be enough.

In the final analysis, the financial resources of "New World" are not enough.

"Then, I will ask the president to help me more." Shen Xin got up, bowed slightly, and left the office.

Yan Fei stood at the door waiting for Shen Xin, saw Shen Xin coming out of the president's office, and hurried over.

"How is it?" Yan Fei asked.

"How should I say it? I have a showdown with the president." Shen Xin went straight to the elevator.

Yan Fei followed closely, "What did you say?"

"I made it clear that the next book will not be serialized on "New World". The president will provide 500,000 in cash, and the radio drama will still be released."

"500,000? From now to October? Not enough, right?" Yan Fei was surprised.

"Hush, keep your voice down, this is still a magazine office. Don't be overheard." Shen Xin reminded.

"So what's the matter? Isn't this the truth?" Yan Fei said angrily.

Shen Xin shrugged, "I guess he is also very angry? After all, my choice did not meet his expectations."

Yan Fei didn't make a sound.

The magazine knew that since Shen Xin no longer wanted to sign another book contract with "New World", it meant that the cooperation between the two parties was only in the last one or two years.

Moreover, even if the magazine works hard, Shen Xin is unlikely to win the "Newcomer Award".

The first 15 "newcomer awards" were divided among the three major publications, and this time it should be the same.

Instead of putting all the weight on the "Newcomer Award", it is better to take a step back and make "New World" famous first.

"Perhaps, after a while, there is still room for maneuver?" Yan Fei explained.

"Then who knows? Even if there is, we can only discuss it after the fourth volume is released." Shen Xin pouted.

Today's negotiation is just a test of the bottom line of the two sides. As for whether there is room for reversal in the future, we can only wait and see.

"Then what should we do now?" Yan Fei asked in surprise.

"Cold salad." Shen Xin entered the elevator, and Yan Fei also walked in.

"Aren't you going back to the editorial department?"

"In this situation, how can I go back to the editorial department?" Yan Fei frowned.

"It's useless for you to worry about it now. Take your time, maybe at some point, you will think of an interesting idea?" Shen Xin said with a smile.

After hearing Shen Xin's words, Yan Fei shook her head helplessly, "I hope so?"
