Chapter 50 Don't Shave
When Zhang Zhong took Pengpeng home in the evening, a call came from "Agitated Literature".
But this time it was not Fang Xingkai who called, but their editor-in-chief Li Nan.
"Hello, is this Teacher Zhang Zhong? I'm Li Nan, the editor-in-chief of "Agitated Literature."
"Oh, it's Editor-in-Chief Li, hello." Zhang Zhong picked up the phone, looked down at Peng Peng, and took Peng Peng into his arms with his free arm a little worried.
He was afraid that when he was on the phone, Pengpeng would run around and there would be traffic on the road, so nothing would happen.
Pengpeng was hugged by his father, hugging his father's neck tightly like a small octopus, and his two little meaty legs were also hooked around Zhang Zhong's waist.
"Mr. Zhang, just now Xing Kai showed me your book. Although it is only one-third of the book, I can already feel the charm of this book, so I won't beat around the bush with you anymore. How about this? This book will be released on "Agitation Literature", let's talk about the physical publication." Li Nan said.
Zhang Zhong said, "Well, yes, what are the conditions for physical publishing?"
"The royalties are [-] points, and the priority of film and television adaptation is ten years. What do you think, Mr. Zhang?" Li Nan said the conditions.
Fourteen points, one point more than the previous "Jieyou Grocery Store".
In fact, the royalties are already very high at [-] points, and there is basically no room for them to go up.
Of course, such a high royalty point is also the result of ten years of film and television adaptation priority.
However, Zhang Chong, the film and television adaptation rights of this book, is not very willing to sell. Compared with "Jieyou Grocery Store", the film and television adaptation market of this book is much larger.
Ten years of film and television adaptation rights cannot be compensated by a single royalty point.The most important thing is that Zhang Zhong himself has some ideas about the adaptation of this book.
"Editor Li, the royalties are easy to talk about, but I want to keep the film and television adaptation rights for myself," Zhang Zhong said.
Li Nan is obviously more stable than Fang Xingkai. After hearing Zhang Zhong's conditions, his tone did not change at all, "Mr. Zhang, we signed the priority right of film and television adaptation, which means that after the film and television adaptation rights are sold in the future, what should you do?" There are profits to be made.”
"Of course I know this." Zhang Zhong didn't say anything else, but the meaning was already obvious. He even wanted to keep the priority of film and television adaptation in his hands.
"Mr. Zhang, our website and publishing house have very rich experience in this area. I believe it will definitely benefit you more than if you operate it personally." Li Nan's tone finally changed. He felt that this Teacher Zhang How to speak airtight, there is no point of entry.
"I believe in your company's ability, but I have some ideas of my own about the film and television adaptation of this book. If the film and television adaptation priority is released, even if I can get considerable profits from the film and television adaptation in the future, I am afraid that I will not be able to control the adaptation of the work. "Editor Li, you should be able to understand what I said."
Li Nan raised her eyebrows, it wasn't for money, then it would be difficult.
How do we talk about this?
Li Nan thought for a long time, and Zhang Zhong almost thought that the other party was gone, so he said, "Mr. Zhang, what do you think of this? We will give us ten years of priority in film and television adaptation, and there is an additional clause that you must be the screenwriter."
"can."
Zhang Zhong agreed so quickly that Li Nan didn't even realize it. He thought that Zhang Zhong would have to think about it before agreeing, but he didn't expect Zhang Zhong to agree as soon as his words fell.
But no matter what, the result is good, Li Nan immediately smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang, do you have time tomorrow? If possible, I will ask Xing Kai to come again and confirm the contract with you face to face."
Zhang nodded, "Okay, just don't come here at noon."
"Well, okay, I'll let him go there in the afternoon." Although I don't know why Zhang Zhong specifically said not to go there at noon, Li Nan still agreed.
……
The matter of publishing the book has basically been settled here, and the next step is to wait for Fang Xingkai to come with the contract, and after both parties sign it, he can publish the new book on "Surging Literature".
"Dad, was it the uncle with glasses who called last time?"
Zhang Chong patted his daughter's head, "Why do you ask that?"
"Because I heard a lot of things that uncle told Dad last time."
Zhang Zhong was stunned, he didn't expect that the little girl was concentrating on drinking the drink, but she was still paying attention to what they said, and she still remembered it in the past few days.
"It's not that uncle, it's another uncle, but they talk about the same things."
"Oh." Pengpeng twisted his buttocks, adjusted a comfortable position in Zhang Zhong's arms, and then rubbed his small face against Zhang Zhong's chin, "Dad, your beard is so piercing."
"Hu Ji—of course he pricks someone."
Pengpeng touched his little chin again, "Then when will I grow a beard, Dad?"
"You won't grow a beard."
"why?"
"Because girls don't grow beards, only boys do."
"But Aunt Liu in our school has a beard. Isn't she a girl?"
"Who is Aunt Liu?"
"She is the aunt who helps us clean up. She is very nice."
Zhang Chong coughed lightly. It is true that some women may grow beards due to abnormal hormone secretion, so he changed his words, "Most girls don't grow beards."
"Then am I the majority of girls?"
Zhang Zhong scratched his head, he felt that the little girl in his arms was much more difficult to deal with than Li Nan.
She always asks some out-of-the-box questions, how do people answer them.I really hope that someone can publish a children's encyclopedia, including all children's problems, and give some strategies. Zhang Zhong will definitely be the first to buy it.
Fortunately, Peng Peng didn't have to answer. Seeing that her father couldn't answer, she pouted and began to stroke Zhang Zhong's beard again.
She probably thought so, and since she had nothing to play with, she just played with her father's joker.
"Father, why don't you shave tomorrow? I think the longer one is more comfortable to the touch." When he was about to get home, Peng Peng said suddenly.
Zhang Zhong almost knelt down for his daughter, Pengpeng, your father didn't grow this beard for you to play with.
……
Today, Zhang Zhong took Pengpeng to have dinner early, and then took her to Mengmu Xiaozhu. He had already made an appointment for tonight's class from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-].
Knowing that she is going to learn to paint, Peng Peng is still very happy. For the time being, it seems that her interest has not retreated.
In the evening class, there is only Pengpeng alone, which can be regarded as Xu Yuhan's one-on-one tutoring, so Zhang Zhong said that it is worth the money, 1000 yuan for one-on-one tutoring for a month, and it is estimated that you can't find it with a lantern.
However, Zhang Zhong felt that if the situation of Mengmu Xiaozhu did not improve for a while, Xu Yuhan probably would not be able to persist. Zhang Zhong probably calculated for her, and she should pay a sum of money every month.
Of course, the survival of Mengmu Xiaozhu has little to do with Zhang Zhong. If Mengmu Xiaozhu is gone one day, there will naturally be many other studios for him to choose from, so he doesn't need to worry about Xu Yuhan.
I read this chapter and said that many book friends were surprised by the tuition fees of kindergartens. To put it bluntly, in my place, [-] semesters is not cheap, but it is not expensive either, it is a little above average.How are you feeling the pressure?
