Chapter 3 Serialization Decision

Su Yu looked at Chu Yu, a little dazed!

This young man must be too single. He immediately got up and left when he felt there was no chance of cooperation, without any delay.

But when the opportunity for cooperation reappeared, the person who seemed a little indifferent before immediately put a smile on his face, and his attitude seemed completely opposite to that before.

Su Yan smiled, but she felt that Chu Yuren had an appetite for her.

After all, in the workplace, the people you come into contact with can’t tell whether they are true to you or fake. People like Chu Yu who don’t hide their feelings at all, no, he probably doesn’t want to hide his thoughts at all, but Su Yu feels that it is much easier to get along with him.

.

The next thing is much simpler. Since both of them intend to publish the work "The Garden of Words" in Moying, a short comic magazine owned by Cuttlefish Magazine, the main discussion is about the price and copyright of the comic!

Although the novel "The Garden of Words" has a very low number of words, seven chapters are barely enough to produce a single book.

Although Su Chen believes that the probability that this work will become popular enough to be published as a single book after being serialized is not high, it is better to write these things into the contract first to avoid disputes in the future.

After nearly half an hour of discussion.

The final result of the negotiation between the two was that Cuyu Comics published it on Moying at a price of 220 yuan per page. If the work "The Garden of Words" is published as a single book in the future, the royalty share ratio will be 7%!

In other words, for the seven chapters and approximately 160 pages of The Garden of Words, Chu Yu’s final remuneration was approximately 35,000!

According to Chu Yu's understanding, this is considered a normal price for newcomers' comics, and is even slightly higher. It seems that Su Yu did not want to bully Chu Yu, who is a newcomer and does not understand the market and lowers the price.

And there is an additional condition in the contract, that is, in the next year, if Chu Yu has new comics, he can only choose to submit them to Cuyu Comics, even if Chu Yu’s new comics are not approved by Cuyu Comics’ serialization meeting

Under such circumstances, you cannot submit your works to other comic journals!

As compensation, the Cuttlefish Comic Society will give Chu Yu certain financial subsidies to a certain extent!

However, the level of subsidies is far inferior to even urban subsistence allowances, and is worse than nothing!

Chu Yu looked at this additional condition and was silent for a long time.

"This is an industry rule. Not to mention the three major comic agencies in Mingcheng, which have influence in only one province, or even the seven major comic agencies in Magic City, which have sales channels all over the country, newcomers want to be serialized in their journals

, they all have to accept similar additional conditions, which are not unique to our company." Su Yu explained to him because he was afraid that Chu Yu would think too much.

After all, it is impossible for any comic book company to cultivate a potential newcomer in its own journal and then let them change jobs at will and wait for a price. Although such terms are overbearing, if you want to embark on the path of a cartoonist, first of all

The first step is to accept it.

Accept it, and only after you become famous can you be qualified to negotiate terms with capital.

Chu Yu understood this. He just thought that this was the first contract he had signed in his life. By signing this contract, he would have half a foot in society.

While receiving income according to the contract terms, you will also be bound by the terms above.

For a moment, there was some fear and fear, but more of it was excitement!

Chu Yu picked up the pen, which felt a little cold to the touch. He took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and signed his name on it without much hesitation!

Su Yu stood up with a smile on his face and stretched out his hand to Chu Yu!

"Teacher Shui Xin, I wish us a happy cooperation!"

“A pleasure to work with!”

Chu Yu also smiled and nodded, shook hands with her, and after a few words of greeting, Su Yu saw Chu Yu off the building from the 18th floor of Cuttlefish Comics Club.

Su Yu, who returned to the office again, took out Chu Yu's original submission for "The Garden of Words and Leaves".

Looking at these beautifully drawn cartoons, Su Lu took a deep breath.

To be honest, at the comics serialization conference, basically no one was optimistic about Chu Yu's work.

First, Chu Yu is not well-known, and the reviewers are cautious!

The second is that the style of Chu Yu's work is specious. It is neither a traditional campus love nor an adult's workplace emotion.

There is no teacher-student romance either. The male protagonist Qiu Yue and the female protagonist Xueye only confide in each other at the end of their emotional outburst, and the whole work comes to an abrupt end when its emotions reach its climax.

But it is true that the painting style of this work is exquisite, the narrative rhythm is not sluggish, and the plot is not bloody.

So she fought against all opinions, and although she failed to get serialization in Manying, she tried her best to help Chu Yu get the opportunity to be serialized in Moying.

Because this work made Su Wei feel a kind of spirituality, she was not sure whether this work would be a big hit, but she felt touched when watching this work!

For an editor like her who reads many manuscripts, it is rare for a work to give her such a feeling!

So instead of saying that Su Yu signed Chu Yu because of this work, it would be better to say that Su Yu signed Chu Yu because of his potential.

If it's a high school student, and it's just the first comic with this kind of quality, even if it doesn't become a hit.

What about the next work?

Chu Yu returned home and lay heavily on the bed. Although he had not done any physical work, he was still a little tired.

He added the number of the editor Su Pei on his mobile phone, and Weixin Penguin naturally also added him as a friend.

At this time, Su Weixin's last message came.

"Everything is going well at work, and serialization matters have also been put on the agenda. One of Mo Ying's works will be completed next week. The editor-in-chief has agreed that The Garden of Words will be published next week to replace that work."

Is the efficiency so fast?

Chu Yu was stunned.

But after thinking about it, I found that the comics serialized on Moying are basically short comics, and most of them are newcomers and some averagely talented cartoonists who publish their works on it.

It is normal for seats to be advertised in the near future.

On the mobile phone, there were several calls from the head teacher.

Chu Yu thought for a while, made up a random reason why he was sick and had a cold, and asked for leave at the same time!

Chu Yu was not going to class, so Chu Yu was the only one in the empty room. Chu Yu also got up and went to his parents' memorial tablets in the living room to lay incense sticks for them.

Chu Yu sighed. Maybe it was because his parents died early and no one restrained him that he felt so confident that he skipped classes and then asked for leave!

It’s also because I live alone that I become addicted to anime and two-dimensional things!

In the end, he actually obtained the cartoonist system and became a cartoonist!

Chu Yu looked at the portraits of his parents, was silent for a while and suddenly said.

"Mom and Dad, if people really have such a thing as a soul, you don't have to worry about me. Although your son and I used to play games and watch anime all day long, now I have become a cartoonist and earned 30,000 yuan.

With five thousand yuan, you are finally half a member of society!”

"With my grades, it would be best if I get into college. If I don't get into college, I will just become a cartoonist! I won't starve to death even if I think about it!"

"Well, that's it!"

After saying a few words, Chu Yu seemed to be in a much happier mood. He opened the curtains and let the sun shine in.

At first, after getting this system, Chu Yu just wanted to see more excellent comic works from different dimensions.

That’s why I was tricked by the system into drawing comics.

but now

The wind blew gently, and Chu Yu took a deep breath.

Although it is mainly copying, you can not only make money, but also read many excellent works from parallel worlds.
Chapter completed!
