Chapter 126: Negotiation

Shen Xin drank two mouthfuls of porridge to calm down.

"That... are you sure you won't be cheated?"

"No. It is a relatively large light novel magazine, so it should be reputable." Xi Muhan said.

"How big is it?" Shen Xin asked.

"It's bigger than the current "New World"." Xi Muhan explained.

"..."

Even with advertisements, the sales volume of "New World" is not ranked among the top ten domestic comic magazines.

"The magazine is called "The Lightest Language", has Brother Xin heard of it?" Xi Muhan looked at Shen Xin expectantly.

Shen Xin shook his head slightly, he only knew about the three major magazines, and he hadn't paid much attention to fiction magazines.

"One million sales in a single issue, right? But the editor said that he wants to test the waters with short stories."

Shen Xin nodded, it's pretty good to be included in one million volumes of fiction magazines.

The difficulty of short stories lies in how to tell a complicated story simply, and the difficulty of novels lies in how not to lose control of the novel after writing it to length.

The difference between the two is quite obvious.

"Then what are you preparing?" Shen Xin asked.

"Fairy tales. Generally speaking, it is to rearrange our stories." Xi Muhan said.

"We? You said we...couldn't it be just you and me?" Shen Xin's eyelids twitched twice.

Although he didn't have that experience, he knew how painful the host and Xi Muhan used to be through his previous memories.

Since Xi Muhan took the initiative to write about that part of the past, he should have come out of the shadows.

"Well, that's what we... will do next."

"Ahem... Sister, there seems to be nothing between us." Shen Xin quickly reminded.

"Ah?" Xi Muhan was taken aback for a moment, then understood Shen Xin's words, his face flushed instantly, "Brother Xin, what are you talking about? I mean, how do we overcome difficulties."

Even if not, you don't have to refute it so quickly, do you?

Xi Muhan glanced at Shen Xin, a little unhappy.

"No, I just remind you a little bit, it's better not to write it as a daily essay."

"Why?" Xi Muhan asked.

"If it's too plain, no one will read it... You can also ask the editors, they have more experience, so you should be right to listen to them." Shen Xin didn't dare to say her "experience".

If a web author changes his website, he may be in trouble, not to mention that he has changed his world now. Besides, he doesn't know what novels are popular in this world.

"Well. I'll ask after it's finished."

Looking at Xi Muhan with a serious face, Shen Xin didn't want to disturb her enthusiasm, so she just nodded, and finally reminded that she must not fall behind in her studies, and after the third year of high school, she can no longer write novels.

"I just want to prove myself. During high school, I can write a maximum of one hundred or two hundred thousand characters." Xi Muhan promised.

Shen Xin is currently busy with "Y's", and has no time to take care of Xi Muhan, so she can only hope that the little girl will keep her word.

"By the way, have you been in contact with Senior Sister Ji recently?"

After finishing the porridge, Shen Xin thought of Ji Yinxuan.

Negotiation with Song Tai tomorrow, there is a certain probability that Ji Yinxuan will be involved. If she has time, everyone can sit down and talk together, and there will always be a good result.

"Sister Xuan? There is contact. She is very busy. It is said that she wants to make the game by the end of the year and promote it in the first half of next year. Before graduating from university, the game will be released."

"Yeah?"

Shen Xin doesn't know much about the production process of games, but it must be more cumbersome than drawing comics. Moreover, Ji Yinxuan will be graduating next year, so the time must be tight.

"What's the matter? Do you want me to ask her for you?"

"No, I have her number.

"Shen Xin shook her head, but felt that the little girl's eyes were not looking well, so she raised her brows slightly, "What's the matter? "

"No. Sister Xuan is very busy. If you have nothing to do, it's best not to disturb her." Xi Muhan kindly reminded her.

Huh? Didn't you just want to ask for me?

Shen Xin was confused, but didn't think much about it.

Whether to ask Ji Yinxuan for help can only be determined after he talks with Song Tai.

I hope the old president will not make things difficult for him tomorrow.

Shen Xin thought to herself.

The next day, Shen Xin did not go to her studio, but went directly to the "New World" magazine.

This time, instead of a group of people sitting in the conference room like before, there were only two people, Shen Xin and Song Tai.

"Congratulations."

After Shen Xin entered, Song Tai smiled.

"Congratulations." Shen Xin nodded slightly at the corner of her mouth.

Song Tai pinched the bridge of his nose and pointed to the chair in front of the desk, "Sit down... I also know that you are a person who likes to get straight to the point, and I also want to determine the plan for the next season as soon as possible. However, the fourth volume will be released Right now, we still want to discuss it.”

"This is the best." Shen Xin also regained her energy, "What's the president's plan?"

"In view of the excellent income brought by this radio drama, the next volume will still be released together with the radio drama. I hope that the fourth volume will also have a good sales volume." Song Tai said.

"The operation mode of the next volume will be the same as this time?" Shen Xin asked.

"Yes." Song Tai nodded, "Since the effect is good, there is no need to make any changes."

Shen Xin pursed her lips, not too surprised.

"You don't seem to be very optimistic?" Song Tai asked in surprise.

"Um."

"It worked out pretty well last time."

"But this model, other magazines will also learn. If "Punishment" or other comics follow this method, we will have no advantage." Shen Xin asked.

"This..." Song Tai frowned, his face serious.

The marketing model is the easiest to imitate, and if other magazines really imitate, it should be more thorough than "Y's". After all, "Y's" has proven to everyone that this model can pay big dividends.

"Then... do you have any new ideas?" Song Tai asked back.

"There is a little bit, but whether it will be effective or not is unknown."

During this period of time, Shen Xin also thought a lot, but she didn't think of a suitable idea, but she came up with an idea on the radio drama.

"What do you think?" Song Tai asked quickly.

"Is it similar to 'unblocking'?" Shen Xin speculated.

"Unblock? How to do it?" Song Tai looked puzzled.

"Roughly speaking, 10 episodes of radio dramas are pre-recorded. Every time the sales volume of the fourth volume exceeds 100,000 copies, two episodes will be unsealed. If the sales volume exceeds 500,000 copies, all 10 episodes will be unsealed." Shen Xin explained.

"By the way, if it doesn't sell 500,000 copies, won't it be unsealed?" Song Tai asked in surprise.

Shen Xin nodded honestly, "That's right, then it can't be unblocked."

Song Tai frowned, "Is the risk too great?"

"Wealth is an insurance policy. Besides, the third volume has sold more than half a million copies. If the fourth volume can't reach this sales volume, then the 'Newcomer Award' is probably out of the question." Shen Xin said.

Song Tai pondered for a long time, then slowly said: "If you think this way, it's not impossible to operate. However, I have a suggestion."

"Um?"

"There is a questionnaire in each book folder, asking if they support the third season of the radio drama." Song Tai suggested.
