Chapter 59 Yan Fei’s troubles

“Y’s” is a big hit.

On the weekend of the first week of release, “Y’s” completed its second reprint. This speed is among the top in the history of “NewWorld”.

Desk calendars were also selling well, 5000 copies of desk calendars were put on the market, and they were quickly sold out.

Although the magazine has added other mixed magazines to the new issue of “NewWorld”, readers do not appreciate it. Compared with the desk calendar of “Y’s”, the desk calendar presented by “NewWorld” is simply too pediatric.

In addition, the magazine has forgotten to consider that readers who purchase “Y’s” may not necessarily purchase “NewWorld”. Some readers will only pay for the single copy.

So the magazine had to order another 5,000 copies.

Seeing that the surroundings of “Y’s” were also driven, Shen Xin was also relieved. After all, Yan Fei has paid a lot for this comic. If the sales are too bad, her face will not look good.

After the contract is renewed, starting from next month, the contribution fee will increase, and the income will also increase. Shen Xin is also thinking about waiting until next month to give two assistants a salary increase. This period of time, two people are indeed very hard.

But now that the manuscript fee and royalties have not been in his hands, even if he wants to increase his salary, he is helpless.

Qiao Yu took a peek at Shen Xin, frowned slightly, and continued to lower her head to black.

“Are you worried?” Ruan Ying asked in a low voice.

“Well, my short comic…no news yet.” Qiao Yu was a little anxious.

“Why don’t you let Mr. Shen take a look first, he can draw high-quality “Y’s”, should you be able to see the quality of your work?” Ruan Ying whispered.

Qiao Yu smiled awkwardly, bowed his head and said nothing.

Of course he has looked at Shen Xin, and he also knows that what Shen Xin said is correct, but he thinks that there is no problem with the subject he expressed.

This time, he did not hand it to Shen Xin, but directly submitted it to Yan Fei, hoping to get recognition from Yan Fei.

Yan Fei’s thoughts are the same as Shen Xin. Although Qiao Yu made justice at the end of the comics, the story is dark, especially the choice of life and death of the brothers and sisters, which is testing the bottom line of human nature. This kind of work cannot be serialized in the juvenile comics at all.

Yan Fei and Shen Xin both had a negative attitude towards this comic, which made Qiao Yu had to give up the final idea, and could only delete the paragraph related to his siblings and submit it to Yan Fei again.

This time, Yan Fei accepted the manuscript, but also clearly told him that whether the manuscript can be published in the magazine, the key is not her, but the person above it.

Can 　　 work?

Qiao Yu feels increasingly uneasy thinking about this.

“How about… ask Teacher Shen?” Ruan Ying asked in a low voice.

“Yeah.” Qiao Yu nodded, and as soon as she got up from her seat, the phone rang.

Shen Xin raised his head and looked at Joey in surprise.

Qiao Yu quickly took out the phone from his trouser pocket, glanced at the phone screen, and immediately opened his brows.

“Teacher, it’s a call from sister Yan.” Qiao Yu was very nervous.

Shen Xin nodded slightly.

Qiao Yu immediately connected the phone, and after a few simple conversations, she looked up at Shen Xin, “Teacher, sister Yan asked me to go to the magazine now.”

“Yeah.” Shen Xin nodded slightly.

“But these jobs…” Qiao Yu said, pointing to the drawing on the workbench.

“It doesn’t matter, I can do it myself.” Zheng Ke said.

“I’m sorry today.” Qiao Yu quickly packed up his tools, put on his backpack, and rushed out of the studio.

Shen Xin looked at Qiao Yu who closed the door, and sighed, wishing you good luck.

Generally speaking, if the submission fails, the editor usually just makes a phone call, but Yan Fei promised Shen Xin that she would try not to irritate Qiao Yu as much as possible. Therefore, she thought about calling Qiao Yu to the editorial department, but this would happen too. One question-Qiao Yu probably thinks that his comics have a chance to be published in “NewWorld”.

is really distressed, what should I tell him?

Yan Fei rubbed her temples with her hands, feeling a little headache.

“Sister Yan, what’s the matter with you?” Xiaoli puzzled.

“No…I just thought of something that might happen later, and I have some headaches.” Yan Fei rubbed her face.

“Can you tell the truth?” Xiaoli said with a smile.

“I’m afraid that Qiao Yu will affect Teacher Shen because of this incident.” Yan Fei sighed.

“But you have to face Qiao Yu, right?” Xiaoli reminded.

“Yes, that’s why I was afraid that he could not bear it.” Yan Fei frowned slightly.

“Sister Yan, I think you are a little bit paranoid about your encounter with Teacher Shen. You want to be perfect in everything, but you must also be aware that there was no such opportunity. The reason is that Teacher Gong Yan suddenly changed jobs, so, We are thinking about selecting a more talented newcomer from the newcomers. If he fails to seize this opportunity, he will just go back to the beginning and have not lost anything. Instead, he has got a chance to experience. What can he have? loss?”

“Also, submission failure is something that a manga artist must go through. There is nothing wrong with this.”

In fact, few signature writers who can serialize in magazines have no experience of failing in their contributions. Even Shen Xin, , was rejected by other magazines before publishing “Formula of Love”.

“It’s just a pity, the most promising newcomer for serialization turned out to be a cartoonist under Li Jiming. I feel uncomfortable thinking about this.” Xiaoli said angrily, bulging her cheeks.

“He doesn’t have a signature author, so he should be more dedicated to cultivating newcomers.” Yan Fei waved her hand.

At this time, the landline placed on the desk suddenly rang. Yan Fei answered the phone and heard the news that Qiao Yu had arrived at the front desk. She immediately got up, picked up the envelope containing the manuscript and hurriedly left.

In the living room, Qiao Yu had already sat down, and when she saw Yan Fei coming in, she quickly stood up.

“Sit down.” Yan Fei nodded slightly.

After Qiao Yu sat down, Yan Fei thought a little bit and felt that Xiaoli was right. Long-term pain is not as good as short-term pain. Just say it directly. Both sides will not entangle, and then they will decide to speak according to Qiao Yu’s attitude. Content.

Thinking of this, Yan Fei took a deep breath, “I’ll just say it straightforwardly. Unfortunately, your work failed to pass.”

“Huh?” Qiao Yu’s inner heat instantly cooled down, “Huh…wait, you mean I’m not qualified?”

“That’s right.” Yan Fei lowered her head.

“Hehe… I thought I could pass? Why did Sister Yan let me come over? I said it directly on the phone, isn’t it all right?” Qiao Yu smiled stiffly.

Yan Fei sighed slightly, she also wanted to call Qiao Yu directly.

“I want you to take a look at the comments of the editors. For you, these contents can make you grow up. As an editor, I hope that the author will go up every step of the way, instead of being defeated by setbacks.” The envelope of the manuscript was placed on the table.

Qiao Yu looked at the envelope filled with words and swallowed hard.
