Chapter 4 Serial start
“Hello, is this Mr. Chen Zechen?” Chen Ze received such a call the day after he submitted his paper.
“I am, may I ask you who?”
“I’m the editor-in-chief of New Animation Magazine. We reviewed the “Slam Dunk” you submitted and thought it was good and has certain commercial value.” Such a series of voices came from the phone.
“Then what do you mean?” Chen Ze heard the meaning of Lin Lan’s words and was a little excited, but he still confirmed it.
“We feel that it is necessary to sign a contract! What do you think.”
Lin Lan’s words confirmed Chen Ze’s thoughts, and he swallowed. If someone wants to sign a contract with him half a month ago, he certainly thinks it should be a matter of course. But after half a month of rejection, he is indeed a little excited to hear the news of the signing.
“No problem.” Chen Ze took a deep breath, stabilized his emotions, and then replied.
“That’s fine.” Lin Lan was also relieved by Chen Ze’s answer. She was also afraid of accidents for such a comic that she values very much. Now that she heard the news that the artist agreed, she was also relieved secretly. In a sigh of relief.
“Then let me tell you our remuneration first. It’s basically a drawing of 400 Huaxia coins. If you issue a single book in the future, you will also have 8% of the royalties. Online subscriptions are also divided by us. Of course, these are not Certainly, if your comics sell well in the future, then these are all negotiable.”
After hearing what Lin Lan said, Chen Ze nodded secretly in his heart. This new animation magazine was indeed the same as the heart of time said, and the treatment was quite good. He knows the treatment of other magazines. A newcomer like him smiles secretly when a painting can cost more than one hundred Chinese coins. He actually got four hundred in one go.
Royalties are even more good, generally only 3% or 5%, 8% is already a very high price. As for 10% or even higher, only those so-called gods or super gods can get it. Newcomers don’t even think about it.
What Chen Ze didn’t know was that the new animation magazine was opened because it was really good for attracting talents. But it was not so good. What really allowed Chen Ze to get this price was the potential of his “Slam Dunk” draft, which made Lin Lan very excited.
“Well, if you have no questions, then I will post our edited TT number later. You add it to the editor and we will introduce the specific matters of our contract to you.”
“Well, good.” Chen Ze returned. After Lin Lan hung up the phone, he really received Lin Lan’s text message. In the text message, Lin Lan sent both the edited TT number and her own TT number to Chen Ze, saying that she could contact her if she had any questions in the future.
After Chen Ze boarded TT, he sent a friend request to those two numbers. Lin Lan didn’t return his own number, but the editor quickly approved his request. After that, the editor explained to Chen Ze about the signing of the contract, as well as things to pay attention to in the future serialization.
“Our magazine is a weekly magazine, which is published every Wednesday, so you have to hand in your manuscript on Monday at the latest every week, so that we can print it. Also, don’t stop the publication if there are no special things. This is very popular, especially for newcomers.”
Chen Ze smiled when he saw the most special note sent by the editor. Zhou Geng might be a headache for other painters, but for the rebirth and traverser whose head is full of comics. It’s too simple.
As for the suspension of the publication, he certainly knows how much the suspension of the publication will damage the popularity. Although cartoonists will have a time when their heads are hot or Cavan, but once or twice is okay, even the great gods can’t withstand the consumption if they are too many.
He remembers that one of the most famous cartoonists who had stopped publications in his previous life was a rich man. He didn’t take a break occasionally when he was painting, but occasionally draw when he was resting. Of course, this also caused his popularity to plummet. If he hadn’t been too genius, he would have fallen from the gods.
But this is not a problem for Chen Ze. He has already drawn almost one-tenth of “Slam Dunk”. If he wants to paint with all his strength, he may be able to make “Slam Dunk” in a few months. “Master” is finished.
“Okay, no problem, I see.” Chen Ze sent this sentence and ended the discussion with the editor. The drafts he submitted this time are enough for the first serialization, so the next submission will be next week, but Chen Ze can’t wait to see his comic serialization.
“Today is Saturday, that is, my comics will be in the magazine in four days.” Chen Ze calculated the time. Whether it is his previous life or his unrebirth life, he is just a street artist. I can only watch other people’s comics forever, and can only do daydreams and want my own comics to be serialized, and now I don’t have to daydream.
He opened his friend’s address book, clicked on the dialog box with the Heart of Time, and sent a sentence like “I also finished the draft!” He now needs to find someone to share his joy, and the first thing he thought of was the heart of time that he suggested.
“Really, that’s great, so we can be considered colleagues in the future.” The Heart of Time quickly replied and sent a smiling face.
“Yes, thank you so much this time, I don’t know what to do without you.” Chen Ze replied.
“Then you can’t thank you verbally, you have to take action.”
“Then how do you say thank you, how do you say thank you, I will thank you. Or I will invite you to dinner, it just so happens that we have never met here.” Although Chen Ze and the heart of time have known each other for a long time, UU reading www. uukānshu. However, the Heart of Time did not mention his reality. Chen Ze only knew that he and himself were in the same city, and knew nothing else.
“What’s the point of eating? How about I take you to a famous bathing center in G city to get some insights, just to show you what is a big health care?”
Looking at the message from the Heart of Time, Chen Ze swallowed his mouth. Since getting to know him, the Heart of Time has often talked in front of him about him making appointments with girls or killing chickens in large-scale health care around the country, which made Chen Ze feel tickled.
Chen Ze is indeed a little tempted by the suggestion of the Heart of Time, but he is still a little virgin himself, and he doesn’t want to waste his first time on this, so he doesn’t know how to reply for a while.
“Haha, I don’t dare to know you.” Perhaps it was because of guessing Chen Ze’s tangled heart, the Heart of Time sent such a message, “I just teased you, let’s not meet. That’s good, it’s not in reality. You can say anything if you know you. Once you meet in the future, some things will be hard to say. As for the gratitude you said, I appreciate it.”
Time spent Chen Ze sleeping during the day to paint, and went to work at night to paint and quickly passed over, and soon Wednesday arrived. On this day, Chen Ze went out early, wanting to buy a new animation weekly magazine-“Manke Weekly”, to see what his comic series looks like.
But to Chen Ze’s surprise, he thought that this magazine would be difficult to find. After all, it was a new magazine, and the channel was definitely not good. But I didn’t expect it to be in the newsstand next to him. He quickly opened it, and the first page was his “Slam Dunk”.
