Eighties Housekeeper Little Wife

When Chen Yuan heard the voice, she went out and saw Shen Huai and Liu Chuan standing at the door, and asked, “Editor Liu, you are here, do you have anything to ask me? Why don’t you come in and sit.”

Just as Liu Chuan was about to speak, he heard Shen Huai suddenly pat him on the shoulder with a smile: “Yes, come in and sit, I forgot to entertain customers, it was my inattentiveness.”

“…”

Shen Huai didn’t have this attitude just now. Seeing Chen Yuan coming, the change was really fast.

Liu Chuan felt that his neck was cold, and his whole body was in the cold wind. Looking back, Shen Huai’s accidental eyes were very dangerous. He might have been too excited and immersed in his own imagination just now, and he didn’t notice that the other party’s face was a little bad.

When he got to the living room, Liu Chuan didn’t dare to be too presumptuous, because he had recovered from his excitement and said his intention in the eyes of the two.

“Mr. Chen, I’m sorry to bother you so early, but this matter is really important to our publishing house, I hope you can agree.”

Chen Yuan asked: “Then you need to say what it is.”

When Liu Chuan talked about his work, he became very serious: “It’s like this, in my previous English books, I saw a lot of animation patterns hand-painted by Mr. Chen, and felt that the style of painting was very delicate, and then I wondered if I could publish a separate book. The comic book that children like to read, and this kind of comic book can be published in a set of 20, and the three series is 60 copies. If it is better, it can be sold for two or three yuan. If children like this style of painting and the content of the story, they will Collecting a complete set of comic strips, the income and profit brought by a set of sixty books is absolutely huge.”

In order to persuade Chen Yuan to agree, he even took out the best-selling comics printed by other publishing houses on the market. Compared with Chen Yuan’s previous paintings of greedy snakes, both the style and composition of the paintings are one heaven and one underground.

The greedy snake painted by Chen Yuan is an obstacle set in the snake chess game. The facial features of a small snake are particularly agile, cute and vivid, and she has also drawn several versions of this little snake, all of which are exquisite in style. Children like to put it down.

On the other hand, the comic strip Liu Chuan brought also had small animals in it. Although it was simply colored, it looked very rigid and lacked any flexibility. Compared with the wind, that is the part of being crushed.

In the past, Liu Chuan didn’t think that the style of this hot-selling comic strip was ugly, because almost all of the comic strips sold on the street were of the same level. Anyway, the main audience was children, and the aesthetics of adults were not Well, how high can children’s aesthetics go? So it seems that you can sell whatever you paint. The threshold for this line is very low. Many people can sell it at a street stall in front of the school, a video store, or a small commodity store, and customers don’t need to go to the bookstore to buy it.

Liu Chuan felt that those paintings with ugly and ugly styles on the market could sell well. Chen Yuan’s high-end painting style would definitely make more money. If she produced a comic book by herself, the other comic strips would not be enough to watch.

After he finished speaking, he looked at Chen Yuan with expectant eyes.

When Shen Huai heard that he was looking for Chen Yuan to collaborate on comic strips, he was not as uncomfortable as before, and still felt that the other party was a little too rash, but for the sake of making money, Liu Chuan’s face looked much better.

At the same time, I sighed in my heart that Chen Yuan’s talent is so dazzling that nothing can cover up her brilliance, and the next second may bring you even greater surprises, leaving you completely unaware of her upper limit.

So Chen Yuan is a huge treasure. The more you know about her, the more unfathomable she feels. With her excellent characteristics, it is impossible for anyone around her to be so perfect, but she feels so friendly. So accessible, it’s like she was born to be around you.

The more Shen Huai found out about Chen Yuan, the more glad that she was his own wife. He should be very lucky to have such an excellent wife.

Chen Yuan hesitated for a while, and after careful consideration of what Liu Chuan said, she quickly understood what this comic strip was, and could find better reference materials for later generations of fairy tale books, comic books, and picture books. However, comic strips may be based on national characteristics.

“I can think about it, but I want 35% of the share. If you can agree, it’s not too late for us to continue talking.”

Chen Yuan is not short of money now, but who is disgusted with such things as money? Therefore, we must do things with high investment and high return, so I feel that the previous ratio is still a little low. Besides, the energy spent on comic strips is of course no less than that of writing English books.

When Liu Chuan heard that this ratio was indeed too high, he had never heard of such a ratio before. It can be said that Chen Yuan said this price was the only one in the city. If it were another author, he might have gotten up and left early. Don’t talk to each other anymore,

But Chen Yuan is different. The last time she cooperated, she was an opportunity for the publishing house to turn around, and now she has finally started to make a profit. Of course, Liu Chuan did not want to let go of her life-saving straw, because if she had a relationship with Chen Yuan broke the cooperative relationship, and the publishing house estimated that it would return to the prototype again, and there was no hope of coming back to life.

Liu Chuan didn’t want the future of the publishing house to be ruined by himself. As long as there was a chance, he would not miss it.

He thought for a while before agreeing, “Yes, no problem.”

Because Mrs. Chen is not an ordinary author, she has huge potential, so she deserves such a high manuscript fee, and it is better to let the publisher earn a little less than no hope of losing money.

If there are employees of the publishing house who see such a scene in front of them, they will definitely think that Editor-in-Chief Liu is crazy, and will agree to such high conditions.

But everything can’t just be seen in front of you. As long as you can make a profit, you can of course agree.

Chen Yuan nodded: “Okay, then we can continue to talk, the comic strip you said is fine, it’s better to add some educational significance, and since you want to make money, then make it more thorough and make it a business. The comic book, the first edition will sell 108 copies directly, with a continuous storyline hidden in it, attracting readers to buy it. If you buy a full set of books, you can find a designated bookstore to exchange for a collector’s edition figure, a collector’s edition postcard, and a variety of beautifully packaged gift boxes. Waiting for the surrounding area, at the same time we can also launch the popular civilian version, which is low-cost and cheap, as well as the hardcover high-end version, as well as the ultimate collection version, the hidden foreshadowing of the civilian version, some plots are invisible, I want to see more If the plot is complete, you can only buy a better version, although the price is slightly more expensive, but there is always a shortage of rich people in this world, as long as the story is attractive enough, I am not afraid that they will not spend money, and someone will definitely buy it.”

After listening to Chen Yuan’s bold and startling remarks, Liu Chuan’s mind paused for two seconds, because some famous words were so shocking that he had never even heard them before.

For example, is it a hand-made thing? ? What’s around? ? The collector’s edition is easy to understand, it is exquisite, and it is very appropriate to use this word to describe it.

The collector’s edition and the hardcover edition are also very nouns for him, and it is not difficult to understand, but the method of stimulating consumption with hidden foreshadowing surprised him too much.

After all the inquiries, the figure is the character model toy in the comic book. If a character has a high popularity, such as the character in the hot cartoon now, there are many toys of the same style appearing in the world, especially sought after by children.

The peripherals are related products of the work. Figures and postcards are also a kind of peripherals, but anything can be made around them, and even patterns can be printed on school bags, shoes, stationery boxes, and clothes. In short, the introduction of peripherals is to stimulate consumption. One way, some consumers may buy books wantonly because of their surroundings, and it may be normal for one person to buy more than 100 books.

Although it feels a little incredible, it is far more amazing than he imagined, and even doubts that someone can really buy so many books at one time? You can’t drink it, and even if the child wants it, it won’t sell so much. Two books for one person are worth it.

Liu Chuan asked his own question, and Chen Yuan answered it for him, “If you want to make money, you have to start with the content of the book. Most of the audience is children, including elementary, middle and high school students, and the consumer group of children is larger than that of adults. People spend more faithfully, and they save pocket money for snacks, but they also use it to buy comics. What we have to do is to attract them to repurchase after reading a book. Although our comics cannot be eaten or drunk, but It can be used as food for their spirits and satisfy people’s spiritual world, which is our goal.”

After listening to Liu Chuan, she felt as if she had never seen Chen Yuan clearly. Sometimes Chen Yuan was more like a successful businessman than herself. She spoke so thoroughly, she was more detailed than expected, and too Understanding human nature is much better than oneself, and it is impossible not to admire it.

If he had an idea, he would definitely not even think about it, let alone come up with this method.

And Chen Yuan’s idea is too advanced, this idea has to admit that it is indeed reasonable, but it is very risky, but if it is really successful, the profits will definitely be huge.

It depends on whether he dares to do it now, but I have to say that if it were two months ago, Liu Chuan would never dare to do it, because the publishing house suffered serious losses at that time, and even if it wanted to innovate, it would not be possible to make such a big leap, but now it has been Some confidence has been restored, and the normal operation of the publishing house can be guaranteed.

Liu Chuan is also a person who is not willing to be ordinary. He feels that he can accept new things. Besides, he has survived the difficult situation before. It makes no sense that the situation is much better now, and he will look forward to the future.

So he agreed with Chen Yuan’s method: “Mr. Chen, you are really the most powerful person I have ever seen. If your works are not popular, it is really hard to tolerate.”

This is the highest evaluation given by Liu Chuan. He has never described anyone in this way. He has dealt with other authors and colleagues for many years. No one gives him this feeling. The key point is that Chen Yuan is not only a good work, but also It’s good to have a good grasp of human nature. He later learned that Chen Yuan’s English book had been invested in many publishing houses, and only his own publishing house, Wisdom Eyes, had signed a contract with her. I was not optimistic about the pressure, and I always believed in Chen Yuan’s works, which was the reason for the subsequent success.

Although it seems that he publishes Chen Yuan’s works, Chen Yuan’s works can be sold well, and the two sides are mutually fulfilling, but if another publishing house signed Chen Yuan’s works at that time, the gold will shine sooner or later, and the best-selling is also a matter of time. I have become my own publishing house, and I have not encountered such a good author. Maybe the publishing house will continue to lose money without any improvement.

So no matter what, it was Chen Yuan who helped the publishing house, not the publishing house, which Liu Chuan knew all too well.

Hearing Liu Chuan’s admiring voice, Shen Huai was happier than Chen Yuan, thinking that although Liu Chuan didn’t wink, his eyesight was actually quite good. It could be seen that Chen Yuan was a huge treasure. I don’t understand it very well, but this doesn’t prevent him. He feels that this matter is very promising. If it works properly, the benefits will be immeasurable.

Especially when I heard Liu Chuan’s praise of Chen Yuan’s last sentence, it would be hard to tolerate without fire. He really had the same idea in his heart that Chen Yuan would definitely become the best writer in the future.

When I think of the best writer in the future, who is now his wife, my heart is overwhelmed and I can’t be myself.

Chen Yuan glanced at Shen Huai strangely from the side. His happiness index rose from 75 to 85 in an instant. Shen Huai only increased his happiness index when he was very happy. Happiness and happiness are closely related. The higher his happiness index, just like the last time Shen Mingyuan made a lot of money, he provided Chen Yuan with a lot of energy in the laughter.

But Shen Huai is very happy now, this is very worth pondering.

Chen Yuan thought about it, it must be the conversation just now, which made Shen Huai very happy. She signed a comic book with the publishing house. Is there such an unexpected gain?

That is to say, Shen Huai is happy about her own affairs. As long as she gets better and better and her social status is getting higher and higher, then Shen Huai will be happy. Shen Huai thinks so completely because she hopes for a bright future and a good life for her. The idea of ​​a blood relationship like this is rare.

The blood relationship is also one of the most difficult relationships to give up. There is data to prove that the relationship between blood relationship and people without blood relationship seems to be more reliable. Although it is not absolutely the case, there is a certain truth in it.

Chen Yuan thought for a while that she and Shen Huai are not related by blood. There is no good for no reason in this world. Shen Huai is very likely to regard her as a relative, because only when facing her relatives will she truly plan for the other party. Really good for each other.

It seems that some people are originally cold, but their hearts are really soft.
