Chapter 466 Tit for Tat

? Shen Xin and "Ne orld" had a very tense fight at the time, but if you say that he and "Ne orld" had a big problem, it's not true, and even the two parties finally "broke up peacefully".

Even so, when Song Tai proposed to see Shen Xin, Shen Xin politely refused at first.

Later, Song Tai called two more times, and Tong Yu also personally invited, expressing his willingness to discuss the electronic version of "Y's", Shen Xin nodded.

As for the reason, after entering the Internet age, things changed so quickly that no one could guess what would happen next moment. Shen Xin also wanted to know what kind of development trend web comics would have in the future.

Of course, these questions come from the helm population of Duoman.com, which is the most authoritative.

"Comic Future" is in competition with Duoman.com, but the author does not compete with them. In other words, the competition between platforms gives the author room to survive.

Otherwise, one family dominates, and any author will be more severely oppressed.

This has nothing to do with loyalty. The magazine just bought the work, not the future of the author. They also do not have an employment relationship with the author, but a cooperation. Otherwise, the author's five social insurances, one housing fund, and various insurances should be borne by the magazine. In fact, these things must be solved by the author himself.

Magazines also understand this, so they can prohibit cartoonists from drawing for other platforms when serializing, but it is impossible to prohibit authors from contacting other magazines, because cartoonists are not their employees.

What's more, "Y's" is also a matter between Shen Xin and "Ne orld", and has little to do with "Comic Future".

So, Shen Xin made an appointment with Song Tai, and met at a nearby star-rated restaurant, and Tong Yu came with Song Tai.

Compared with before, Song Tai was obviously much older. According to his age calculation, he should be not far from 70 years old now, but Tong Yu, dressed in a suit, looked extraordinarily energetic. When he saw Shen Xin coming in, he stood up and smiled.

"Teacher Shen is still in casual clothes."

Shen Xin was wearing a black sweater and jeans, no different from before.

"Yeah, I still need to paint when I go back, and everyone's time is very tight, so to make a long story short." After shaking hands with Tong Yu, Shen Xin nodded slightly to Song Tai, "Mr. Song,

haven't seen you for a long time. "

"Long time no see. In recent years, Mr. Shen's name has been very famous in the industry." Song Tai said with a light smile.

"Yes, the platform is bigger." Shen Xin smiled lightly.

"Speaking of a big platform, I think Duoman.com's platform is also very big. It may be as big as "Comic Future" in the future. I wonder if we will have a chance to cooperate?" Tong Yu told the waiter to order the food, and then turned back and asked Shen Xin.

This was the second time he and Shen Xin met, and they still did not forget to poach people.

"Who can say for sure what will happen in the future? Just like at this time last year, few people would know that there will be a Duoman Internet cafe?" Shen Xin laughed.

"Also..." Tong Yu nodded slightly, "Then I'll wait for your good news."

Shen Xin raised her brows slightly, there was news, but whether it was good news or not was difficult to say.

"Mr. Song, Mr. Tong, let's get straight to the point, shall we? Everyone is very busy." Shen Xin laughed.

Song Tai picked up the teapot and wanted to pour tea for Shen Xin. Shen Xin quickly took the teapot and filled a cup by herself, "I want the electronic copyright of "Y's", right?"

"That's right." Tong Yu said.

"To be honest, I'm quite curious, Mr. Tong, how do you divide the profits of the electronic copyrights of the comics you signed, such as "Faltering" and "Ghost Power" with the author?" Shen Xin stared at Tong Yu.

"This... depends on the work, and of course it also depends on the wishes of the magazine. For example, for the "Shaky" and "Ghost Poses" you mentioned, we directly pay for these works. The author can receive a sum of money at a time. Money, the subsequent income has nothing to do with the author. We are willing to buy, and the magazine is also willing to sell, and everyone hit it off. Some magazines are unwilling to release, so we can only provide a platform, and the income will be shared equally among the three.”

"Which type does "Y's" belong to?" Shen Xin asked curiously.

Magazines, network platforms, and authors each share one, which is equivalent to the "channel" in the Internet. The author's final income is about 25%.

"The second type."

"How to divide?" Shen Xin asked curiously.

"We are the big ones, accounting for 40%. The magazine and the authors...that's your business." Tong Yu said.

Sure enough...it's the same model as the Internet.

"However, I have a question." Shen Xin took a sip of tea and looked at Tong Yu.

"Please say."

"This cooperation...why do you want to add "Ne orld"? The electronic copyright of "Y's" is in my hands, why should it be divided?"

"You... don't go too far!"

Song Tai raised his brows, stared at Shen Xin, and couldn't help pressing the dining table hard.

"What kind of cooperation between the two of you seems to have nothing to do with me, why should I give up my own interests?" Shen Xin deliberately did not look at Song Tai.

"Ne orld" is the launch platform of "Y's", according to common sense, "Ne orld" does have the priority of the electronic version of "Y's". However, the contract did not keep up with it at that time, and the content of electronic copyright was not clearly written in the contract.

Formal magazine society supplements electronic copyright contracts. For example, "Comic Future" specifically supplements the electronic copyrights of 50 comics, and deliberately indicates the proportion of comics sold on the Internet. But "Ne orld" didn't mention the supplementary electronic contract at all, nor did it mention the proportion of revenue sharing. It just talked about the transfer of copyright. At least Shen Xin didn't see much sincerity.

An old fox is still an old fox.

But Shen Xin is not a sandbag, she can be manipulated by anyone. What's more, his main purpose of coming here this time is to see what the bottom line of the two parties is, and to ask about some web comics.

As for "Y's", after all, it is only a semi-finished product, and he doesn't care too much about whether it can be made into an electronic version.

Of course, Shen Xin will not bypass Song Tai and talk to Tong Yu privately, because litigation is very troublesome, and Shen Xin does not want to get involved in it.

There are still three or four years left in the "Y's" contract, he can afford to wait.

"It seems to make a little sense." Tong Yu glanced at Song Tai, seeing that he was full of anger, but there was no rebuttal, so he knew that there was indeed a problem with the contract. The teacher's reputation is not very good."

"Mr. Tong, what you said made me a little confused. People are not afraid of having a bad reputation, but of not having a reputation. You should know this, right?" Shen Xin stared at Tong Yu.

"For the first time, I discovered that Teacher Shen is such an interesting person." Tong Yu showed a professional smile.

"In the future, if we communicate more, you will know that I am more interesting." Shen Xin still stared at Tong Yu.

"Mr. Song, what should we do now?" Tong Yu kicked the ball to Song Tai again.
