244 Enrage
"Teacher Luo, after all, you are not a double champion like Yao Chongjing, nor are you a senior senior like Zhenjun of Life and Death. Although you are a famous martial arts master, you do not have a convincing sales proof. Besides, you will not be unclear about the status of "The Knights and the West" in martial arts. Our company and our magazine are undoubtedly your best choice. [Novels are updated quickly, no pop-ups, please search]"
On the other end of the phone, Yang Qing's voice quietly brought a hint of threat of both soft and hard.
As soon as the classic news of the times came out, famous martial arts masters came out one after another. At this time, the price reduction was a godsend. As the editor-in-chief of "The Knights and the World", how could Yang Qing not seize it?
She knew that Luoyang would be unhappy.
No one would be happy, but Yang Qing still felt that all this was under his control.
In order to impact the classic martial arts master awards of the times, these famous martial arts masters have red eyes and a rare opportunity.
But unfortunately, this time she met Luoyang.
She thought Luoyang chose "The Legend of the World" because their company is big and its business is big.
Unfortunately, Luoyang chose "The Legend of the World" for the sake of his second uncle. The so-called platform is not that important to him.
Otherwise, when the "Xia Ke Magazine" under the Xiake Jianghu River was on the verge of bankruptcy, he would not have taken action resolutely, because anyone with discerning eyes could see that if the "Seven Weapons" were replaced by "Wu Lin Feng", the impact would only be greater.
As for the awards...
To be honest, Luoyang wants it very much.
But this desire is not very strong.
Compared with those famous martial arts masters who have been waiting for awards for several years, he is simply considered to be without desires.
"Editor Yang, if you still want to lower the price, I think our cooperation will end here." Luoyang's voice was very light.
"We had quoted 1,000 words and 1,000,000 words before, but you gently erased 2,000. This gap seems very small, but in fact I lost more than one million. I believe you know this account more than me."
That’s right, some people will say, a thousand words and ten thousand words are not big, but it’s just two thousand dollars less.
But in fact, a thousand words have been changed to ten thousand words and ten thousand words. In this way, the book "The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng" has a total of 700,000 words, and the total loss of royalties in Luoyang is about 1.4 million.
One million and four hundred million were erased in an understatement.
Not to mention, the magazine serialization itself has to give up the copyright of the work.
He doesn't care much about money. But he doesn't like being threatened, and he doesn't like being tricked by others. Yang Qing's tricks undoubtedly made him very dislike.
Yang Qing said with confidence: "Teacher Luo, you have already had a royalty of over 100 million yuan on the Long Country Writers Rich List. Will you still care about those millions?"
Luoyang was so angry that he laughed: "I have a royalty of over 100 million yuan, so I don't care how many millions you killed? What is the logic behind Editor Yang? Is it because I am rich or is it my fault?"
After finishing writing a book called "The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng", I only earned a few million.
According to the other party, I might as well go and help them write a book for free, so what kind of royalties do I need?
"Teacher Luo. We do not lack famous martial arts masters to contribute, but we respect every famous martial arts master, so we discuss with you so patiently. We also hope that you can understand that choosing to cooperate with us is also for your benefit."
Yang Qing's attitude is still tough, and his words are full of threat.
"hehe."
Luoyang pulled the corner of his mouth and hung up the phone.
He is too lazy to chat with such a moral bitch. Such people like to call you one by one. They seem to be very well-educated and respect themselves verbally. In fact, they do things that they do have no meaning of respect at all.
And to be honest, a magazine-made person is considered half a literati after all, and it is rare to be so philanthropist.
For Luoyang, it was just a different platform to release it. It was a pity that the second uncle didn't help.
As soon as I put down my phone, the screen lit up again. Luoyang thought it was Yang Qing who called again. He was about to hang up the phone, but found that the person who called was his assistant Hua Qi.
He answered the phone.
As soon as it was connected, Hua Qi's voice came over: "Boss, have you talked to Editor-in-Chief Yang?"
Luoyang said: "If you don't talk too much, you will say a lot."
Hua Qi smiled and said, "Just today, at least five famous martial arts masters have come into contact with them "Xia Ke Magazine". After all, the most suitable platform for serialization in the industry is "Xia Ke Magazine".
Luoyang knew it.
Hua Qi was reminding Luoyang that Yang Qing dared to bargain with him.
Today, at least five famous martial arts masters came into contact with them. As time goes by, the number of people will increase. Naturally, the "Xia Ke Magazine" has become harder.
To put it another way, in the eyes of "The Knights and the World", my status is no different from that of a spare tire.
After all, most of the famous martial arts masters rely on sales support, and while they are just starting out in martial arts, they have no sales proof, so their importance is naturally discounted.
"From now on, there is no need to cooperate with this magazine." Luoyang said lightly.
Hua Qi nodded decisively, and in his heart he was on the boss's blacklist for three seconds after silence for "The Knights and the West". I am afraid that he will suffer some trouble in the future.
"In addition, let me release the news about my book opening. It's better if I go to the first one." Luoyang said.
"Puff..." Hua Qi almost choked by her saliva when she heard this. She was a little confused: "Who will go to which one first? Is the boss who has played like this? You are too willful..."
"Well, are you willful?"
Luoyang thought about it and it seemed that this was true.
He pondered, "Then we..."
Before Luoyang finished speaking, Hua Qi took the lead and said: "It's very simple. Acquire a magazine and we will serialize it ourselves, boss! Why do you have to give money to those magazines to make money!"
"Acquiring magazine?"
Luoyang frowned and said, "There is no need to be so troublesome. Let's go first. If you encounter a suitable platform, please make a decision."
"Oh well……"
Hua Qi could only agree. Luoyang did not like to actively expand his career. As an assistant, Hua Qi also expressed helplessness. It was not easy to have a boss who was invincible.
The next day, Luoyang specially called Luo Dashan and explained: "Second uncle, I have pushed the contract for "The Legend of the Warriors"..."
Before Luoyang finished speaking, Luo Dashan said affirmatively: "It's okay, I know everything. Uncle Second supports you. The company has done too much. The price they give you is the lowest among famous martial arts masters, and it's simply bullying."
"That's good……"
Luoyang breathed a sigh of relief and chatted with Luo Dashan for a few more words. Suddenly, he heard a little noisy sound from the other side of Luo Dashan.
"Luo Dashan, you have not moved to the office yet. You are just talking to the phone. Is it better to move faster? The editor-in-chief urged me."
Luoyang frowned: "Uncle Second, is there anything wrong with you?"
"Well, you don't have to worry about it. I'll have to die first, and I'll talk back..." Luo Dashan said hurriedly.
Luoyang's mind was so fast that he almost instantly thought of something. His face looked a little ugly: "Uncle Second, have you been troubled by someone in the company?"
"It's nothing, don't worry..." Luo Dashan said a little embarrassedly.
"Tell me." Luoyang's voice was very serious.
Luo Dashan sighed, knowing that he couldn't hide it anymore, and his nephew was not easy to fool.
"The company asked me to persuade you to accept the price. I am your second uncle. Even if I lose my job, I can't be sorry for my nephew. So I rejected the company's request and was transferred by the superiors to go to the grassroots to do printing."
Listening to the bitter laughter of the second uncle on the phone, Luoyang suddenly became harder while holding the phone's hand.
"Luo Dashan, you are still calling. Can you hang up? If you don't move these broken information, do you still expect me, the editor-in-chief, to move it for you?"
Another woman's voice came from the other end of the phone, and Luoyang could hear it all at once. It was the female editor-in-chief, Yang Qing's voice.
Luoyang's voice suddenly calmed down: "Uncle Second, give your phone a editor."
"Luoyang..."
"Give it to her."
"Okay..." Luo Dashan hesitated for a moment and agreed.
Ten seconds later, Yang Qing's voice came from his phone: "Hello, Teacher Luo, have you considered what you said last night? If you think clearly, we will also repay you."
When Yang Qing talked about the word "reward", he obviously aggravated his tone, as if he was pointing something.
But Luoyang suddenly laughed.
It's just that this smile doesn't have a slight warmth.
He said word by word:
"I just want to tell you two things now." First, my second uncle will resign because he will be the editor-in-chief of my magazine."
"Second, no matter how many famous martial arts masters you found in "The Knights and the West", I will let you know who is the emperor of this arena."
