Chapter 648: Bao Jiyi’s Adjustment

Bao Jiyi thought over and over again, and agreed with Shen Xin's conditions.

He knew that in the face of other high-level executives, he would have to spend a lot of time. Since "ComicFuture" was founded, no one has ever obtained a contract to be serialized in different magazines at the same time, and Shen Xin is the first one.

On the other hand, he is also dissatisfied with the current situation of Yishu Culture.

Even if "ComicFuture" is the first issue in China, so what?

In the face of an author of Shen Xin's level, "ComicFuture" is helpless.

The negotiation with Shen Xin this time also woke up Bao Jiyi.

Why is the influence of "ComicFuture" in the domestic comic industry higher than other comic platforms, and why is Shen Xin so confident?

There is only one reason, "ComicFuture" did not widen the gap with other comic platforms.

The conditions that "ComicFuture" can provide can be provided by other magazines. Moreover, after the gradual Internetization of comics and the Internetization of D-versions, both paper magazines and booklets have been severely impacted, and "ComicFuture" has little advantage.

First of all, there is a cost for a single book, and comics that cannot be sold are negative assets. Secondly, even if some readers want to read genuine comics, paper magazines and booklets, compared with online comics, the access channels are too cumbersome.

Most of the authors still want to make money. If the income gap between the authors does not widen, then the author may choose any platform. In other words, "ComicFuture" is no longer as attractive to cartoonists as before.

Then again, the author's income comes from readers, and readers are not stupid. If you want readers to buy it, you must have good works.

Therefore, this has become a cycle. If this cycle cannot be broken, "ComicFuture" will continue to decline, and in the end, it will be no different from other magazines.

Why is Shen Xin so confident? After all, isn’t it that other cartoonists can’t reach his level?

Bao Jiyi must do everything possible to reverse the current situation, increase the company's profits, and find more outstanding cartoonists, preferably one or two who can reach Shen Xin's level.

But he also knows that cartoonists of this level are very rare in the 11th district, and there are only a handful of cartoonists who can open the Huaxia, 11th district and Omi markets, so there is no rush for such a thing.

The most urgent thing to do now is to solve the embarrassing situation of "ComicFuture" and widen the gap between it and other magazines.

Bao Jiyi stayed up all night, and the next afternoon, he held an internal meeting of Yishu Culture and issued a series of appointments that shocked many people.

"ComicFuture" magazine merged with "ComicFuture" app, and Shang Haozhi was promoted to the general manager of the two departments. The editor-in-chief of "Youth Future" Yu Chen was the editor-in-chief of "ComicFuture", and Zeng Yue was still the person in charge of the app. .

At the same time, Bao Jiyi also set a goal for the app. In three years, the annual revenue of the app will reach 70% of "ComicFuture".

After a series of personnel appointments, "ComicFuture" has been greatly changed, and Bao Jiyi's purpose is also obvious, which is to find new sources of income growth. Their eyes are set on the app.

At the same time, Bao Jiyi was also at the meeting, explaining the future cooperation between the magazine and Shen Xin. When they learned of Bao Jiyi's decision, all the participants were filled with righteous indignation and asked why they did this?

"Teacher Shen gave two choices. First, agree to his request; second, he switched jobs to other magazines. What conditions are there to talk about? There is no option of 'negotiating conditions'. Come on, who can let Teacher Shen Concession, I will give him three times the salary."

The meeting room was silent, looking at each other, silent.

Shen Xin didn't even give Bao Jiyi face,

These people go for nothing.

Seeing the silent venue, Bao Jiyi's eyes fell on Shang Haozhi again, "Old Shang, hurry up and finalize Teacher Shen's contract. Although we agreed, there is no guarantee that any magazine that is not open to contact will contact Teacher Shen." , If you lose the overseas copyright at that time, you will lose a lot.”

No one can guarantee the authenticity of what Shen Xin said yesterday, if something goes wrong, it will be a big loss.

"Okay." Shang Haozhi replied.

"...and the electronic version contracts of "Steel Refining" and "Soul of Chess", and they should be finalized soon. There are already "Steel Refining" comics on the Internet, which has caused an impact on the booklet. Therefore, it is meaningless for us to hold on to it. Take advantage of the popularity of "Steel Refining" to see if it can bring some popularity to the app. You can ask Mr. Shen for his opinion and see his opinion." Bao Jiyi glanced at the notepad at hand, and said the last item out.

Duoman.com re-serializes "Y's", after all, it is to catch the popularity of "Steel Refining".

Since they have the copyright of "Steel Refining", why don't they make good use of it?

However, once "Steel Refining" is serialized on the app, the income of the single book will definitely be affected, so Shen Xin's attitude must be taken into consideration.

"No problem." Shang Haozhi responded, and wrote down the matter in the notepad.

"I'll hand over the new contract to you later. You will be very busy in the past few days, so take care of yourself." Bao Jiyi said meaningfully.

After the meeting was over, Shang Haozhi led Yu Chen to the editorial department and briefly introduced Yu Chen to all the editors.

The merger of the magazine and the app cannot be explained in one or two sentences, and there will be a series of operations in the follow-up, so he only mentioned one sentence.

The editors looked confused, why did they hold a meeting, and the editor-in-chief changed.

But now that the decision has been made at the top, they can only adapt.

Just after the introduction, three documents came from Shang Haozhi's mailbox, which were the electronic contracts of the two comics "Steel Refining" and "Soul of Chess", and the related agreement of the next work.

Shang Haozhi printed the document, put it in the document bag, and glanced at Yu Chen, "Why don't you come with me to Teacher Shen's office later? From now on, you probably will deal with him often."

"Mr. Shen? Cough cough...that's fine." Yu Chen coughed, and then asked Shang Haozhi in a low voice, "Is Teacher Shen easy to talk to?"

"It's okay. Although Mr. Shen is stubborn sometimes, he also has principles in doing things."

"Um?"

"Mr. Shen will tell you everything in advance. As for whether to cooperate, both parties have the opportunity to choose. Just like this time, if Mr. Shen chooses other magazines quietly, wouldn't we be at a disadvantage?" Shang Haozhi asked rhetorically.

"That's true." Yu Chen nodded, feeling a little fond of Shen Xin in his heart.

He had met Shen Xin before, but had no contact with her. This was also the first official meeting between the two.

Shen Xin has already stood at the top of domestic cartoonists, meeting him, Yu Chen is still under pressure.

Seeing that Shang Haozhi and Yu Chen were about to leave, Yan Fei was also wondering whether she should follow.

"By the way, Xiaoyan, don't go this time." Shang Haozhi turned to look at Yan Fei.

"ah?"

Yan Fei was stunned for a moment, before her brain turned the corner, she heard Shang Haozhi continue to say: "You can contact "Young Leap", "Steel Refining" will resume next week, and ask them to vacate the page and put Send the translated manuscript of "Steel Refining" to the other party."

"oh!"

Hearing this, Yan Fei was overjoyed, "Smelting Steel" can finally be re-serialized.
