Chapter 12 Contract
In front of him is a tall and beautiful girl, with pearl pendants shining in her earrings. She is the same age as him, with a somewhat rebellious air, but there is a hint of cunning in her eyes.
The girl smiled lightly and said, "Are you Ye Li who wrote the biography of Wukong?"
Ye Li was startled and said, "Are you? Are you the editor of Spring Publishing House?"
He never thought that the editor of Spring Publishing House would be so young.
"Yes, I am negotiating a contract with you on behalf of the publishing house." The girl slowly looked around and said, "But this is not a good place."
At this time, countless heads in the class leaned out of the windows, staring intently at the girl in front of them.
Such a beautiful girl has never appeared in school, especially her eyes are like moving cherries and she can talk, which makes people's hearts tremble.
Suddenly countless people envied Ye Li's romantic encounter.
"What's going on with a girl of the same age looking for him during class time?" The whole class was stunned and began to have endless imaginations.
At this time, Liu Yang, who was sitting in his seat, looked at the little beauty talking and laughing with Ye Li, and his face turned pale, almost bursting with jealousy.
How come all the good things in the world have been taken up by Ye Li? There were so many names in writing that wandering journal. In just one morning, there were countless people whispering about Ye Li and admiring Ye Li. But now such a beautiful girl is actually
We are here to find him too!
"Okay." Ye Li nodded and walked down the stairs side by side with the girl.
Almost at this moment, Ling Yulin, who was in the next class, heard scratching sounds nearby and glanced at the window in surprise. When he saw the girl, he couldn't help but uttered in shock: "Why is it her?"
Ling Yulin is Ling Mingxiao's daughter. She often goes to the Education Committee to see her father. The Education Committee is near the Federation of Literary and Art Circles building, so she has met a lot of people. The one who left a deep impression on her is the capable editor-in-chief of Spring Publishing House, Mo Bing.
When I first saw him, I was amazed and felt that he had an excellent temperament, which left a good impression on him.
Later, she also met Mo Bing's daughter, who looked exactly like Mo Bing and had the same temperament, which made people feel close to her even from a distance.
But she didn't expect that Mo Bing's daughter Xueting would come to their school during these school hours, and she was looking for a boy.
I remember that Xueting's character was as arrogant as Mo Bing's. How could she ever take the initiative to be kind to others?
A strong curiosity arose in her heart.
At this moment, when she saw the boy, there was a bang in her mind, and it was like it exploded into a blank.
"It's actually that boy! That beautiful boy!"
"It turns out he was in the next class. No wonder I had an impression but couldn't remember it!"
"It turns out that the mysterious boy from nature is being chased like crazy. The boy from nature that countless people are looking for is from our school?"
Thinking of this, Ling Yulin completely lost her voice.
How can this be?
She glanced at Ye Li again. Although she was wearing school uniform, the faint smile on her face had not changed at all.
She finally confirmed him.
I breathed a sigh of relief inside, but felt a little secretly happy.
The crowd searched for him thousands of times, but suddenly looking back, he was there in the dim light!
Should we tell this matter?
Ling Yulin's heart beat heavily, and she suppressed the desire. She might as well keep it as a secret in her heart. Moreover, she could make good friends with him first and become friends. She wanted to listen to his songs.
Thinking of this, when she remembered the lyrics "I believe you are still here, never leaving, my love is like an angel guarding you", a strange feeling arose in her heart.
I want to become friends with him as soon as possible! Ling Yulin was thinking like this at the moment.
*********************
It wasn't until he got downstairs that Ye Li saw a beautiful woman standing there. She looked to be in her thirties. She had a vigorous temperament and was very similar to the little girl next to him, but there was something hidden in her eyebrows.
With a calm and calm charm, the atmosphere is clear.
Then the woman came up to her and stretched out her hand: "Hello, I am Mo Bing, the editor-in-chief of Spring Publishing House."
Ye Li was startled, then turned back to look at the girl beside him, but the girl Xueting stuck out her tongue at Ye Li, and then stuck behind Mo Bing.
Mo Bing smiled slightly. She knew her daughter was quirky and explained: "This is my daughter Xueting. She has also read your novel and liked it very much, so she followed her."
Naturally, she didn't say why she lost the bet by bringing Xueting over at this time.
When he shook hands with Mo Bing, the tentacles were warm and pleasant. Ye Li was even a little dazed, but he came back to his senses immediately and said, "Thank you, Editor Mo, for your approval."
The fact that the other party came to school to meet with him shows his sincerity.
But he was very surprised, because Xueting's eyes were fixed on him, as if there were flowers on his face.
It even made him want to reach out and touch his face.
What happened to this little girl? Ye Li muttered in his heart.
Mo Bing smiled slightly and said to Ye Li: "Just call me Aunt Mo." She suddenly said seriously: "Ye Li, Aunt Mo wants to confirm that there is no copyright dispute with this novel, right?"
Ye Li nodded and said: "This book is indeed written by me alone. There is no plagiarism or infringement involved, and all the copyrights are in my hands."
He added: "I can make this statement in the contract. I know that if you infringe or have a copyright dispute, you will be punished."
At this time, he noticed that Xueting was staring at him closely, and for a moment he felt a little uncomfortable all over his body.
Mo Bing's heart moved. He didn't expect that Ye Li had an overall view of the situation when speaking, and his tone was very reassuring, and this was actually coming from a fourteen-year-old boy.
No wonder he could write such a novel. He is young and mature, and has extraordinary bearing. No wonder he has to be simple.
Mo Bing nodded: "Then I won't say much. Anyway, Spring Publishing House welcomes you to join us. Now we are entering into contract negotiation. This is the publishing contract I have drawn up. You can take a look at it first."
Ye Li received a thick stack of contracts. He had published several novels in his previous life and was very familiar with the contracts, so he started browsing them directly.
The other party's temperament and behavior are so capable and concise, so he is naturally not polite.
He noticed that the second article of the contract said: "Party A must pay royalties to Party B within thirty days after receiving Party B's work. The royalty calculation method is one hundred and fifty yuan per thousand words. Before paying this royalty, Party A must comply with the law.
Withholding tax.
The supplementary clauses at the back state that once Party B sells a total of 100,000 copies, Party A needs to reissue the royalties for these 100,000 copies to Party B. The royalties for each episode are the book price multiplied by 10% times the actual amount.
The sales amount must be paid within thirty days. Party A must withhold taxes in accordance with the law before payment."
Ye Li frowned slightly, then continued browsing.
Ye Li breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the copyright of this book was limited to "Simplified Chinese", and that the author and his name were not bought out, but that he only had priority in the author's future works.
This is what he must insist on.
He already had a certain understanding of Spring Publishing House before sending the email. When he saw the price just now, he thought that the other party was buying out his pen name. However, he did not expect that the other party would be so generous, which made him heartbroken.
There was a wave of doubts.
After all, he is just a newbie, how could the other party offer such a loose contract?
"How is it?" Xueting looked at Ye Li with wide eyes. She wanted to see Ye Li ecstatic and completely lost his composure. She had been looking forward to this moment for a long time.
She felt that even if he was not ecstatic, Ye Li would try his best to hide the surprise on his face, but he still looked like he couldn't help but laugh out loud. It was this contradictory conflict that made the expression on his face
