The car giant started by marrying the daughter of the king

Chapter 27 Additional Benefits

"Thank you, Editor Ge. This is really a good amount for a newcomer."

"I plan to write a book of about 500,000 words. I wonder how People's Literature plans to publish it?"

Although the standard of manuscript fee is a bit low, Jiang Hui knows that there is not much meaning in discussing the topic of increasing manuscript fee now.

After Desire began serialization, everyone saw the results and said that other things became meaningful.

"Originally our plan was to publish the 2 words you submitted in the latest issue of the magazine, but considering that your book is planned to be 50 words, if you publish 2 words in one issue, it will take two years to complete, which is a bit too long."

"It just so happens that you have already written almost 2 words this week. If you don't mind, I will take this manuscript away directly, and then add it together with the previous 4 words to make a -word content for publication."

"In this way, the serialization time can basically be compressed to about one year."

After hearing the conversation between Jiang Hui and Ge Suhong, Cui Yongfang finally put down the manuscript in his hand reluctantly and expressed his thoughts.

As a professional editor, she herself was attracted by the interconnected content of "Desire".

Not to mention ordinary readers.

In her opinion, "Desire" abandoned its previous creative approach of educational propaganda and instead took "content that ordinary people like to watch" as its creative orientation.

This novel is likely to be a big hit!
"No problem, let's follow your plan, Team Leader Cui."

"However, this novel is expected to be completed within the next three months. Whether it will still be published according to the standard of 4 words per issue depends on your arrangements."

Jiang Hui said this, but his meaning was actually very clear.

That is, the number of words in the later part is larger, and I hope that People's Literature and Art can serialize more of it.

In this way, the influence of "Desire" can be unleashed more quickly.

After all, I haven't read the entire text, so some things cannot be reflected intuitively.

In "Desire" written by Jiang Hui, the characters in it borrowed some popular elements of later generations, that is, the characters were set up to be very extreme.

Once a character exhibits a certain personality trait, they tend to stick with it.

For example, Wang Yaru is very stubborn, which makes many people find it difficult to accept.

But Jiang Hui feels that this setting can make the story simpler and clearer, and readers can also understand and accept it more easily.

This is an important feature of soap operas that became popular in later generations.

After using it on the novel in advance, Jiang Hui felt that "Desire" would definitely become a hit, the only difference was the degree of its popularity.

"You can complete a creative task of 50 words in three months?"

Cui Yongfang was shocked.

This speed is absolutely exaggerated.

"Team leader, don't we have a system that allows us to invite authors to come over to revise their manuscripts?"

"If you are worried that Mr. Jiang is writing too fast, you can ask him to come over and polish the manuscript appropriately."

Ge Suhong just realized that Jiang Hui was not very satisfied with the manuscript fee of 5 yuan per thousand words.

However, the payment standard of People's Literature is there, and it is not appropriate for anyone to adjust it easily now.

However, if some reasonable subsidies are provided within the rules, there is room for maneuver.

Because the author is invited to revise the manuscript, there is a subsidy.

Not only can you live in their guesthouse, but you can also receive a subsidy of 2 yuan per day.

If "Desire" can be completed within three months, at least three months of revision time can be arranged, and the subsidy alone will be 3 yuan.

Although it’s not a particularly large number, it’s definitely not a small number.

Because of this subsidy, you can continue to do your own thing after receiving it.

Anyway, people look at the results, the process is not important.

Writer She Hua once traveled a long way to Beijing to revise his manuscript for Capital Literature and Art. He finished the revision on the first day and then spent a month in Beijing. It can be said that he had a trip without spending a penny and even earned some money.

"Revising the manuscript?"

Cui Yongfang was not stupid. He immediately understood that Ge Suhong wanted to seek benefits for Jiang Hui. As for the current manuscript, there would be no problem in publishing it without changing a single word.

So she immediately said, "Jiang Hui, you can indeed come to our place to revise the manuscript, and you can also get to know our other editors and authors."

Ge Suhong was worried that Jiang Hui was not aware of the benefits behind manuscript revision, so she quickly introduced the manuscript revision policy of People's Literature.

Just go for a walk occasionally, no need to work in the office.

This does not affect my ability to continue working at all.

Jiang Hui naturally accepted the extra benefits that were delivered to his door.

So Jiang Hui agreed without any hesitation.

"Team Leader Cui, Editor Ge, you came all the way here today and waited for so long. You must be hungry, right?"

"There's a restaurant nearby that serves really good braised pork ribs. Why don't we go over there and eat and chat while the chef is still at get off work?"

Jiang Hui himself was a little hungry.

Cui Yongfang and Ge Suhong have just found some benefits for me, so I have to express my gratitude to them.

However, due to time constraints, it is too late to go to a famous restaurant far away for dinner, and the other party may also refuse.

It would be better to choose a hotel nearby.

After hearing what Jiang Hui said, Cui Yongfang and Ge Suhong looked at each other and said, "We can have dinner, but we have to pay for our own meals."

It is obvious that Cui Yongfang and Ge Suhong do not want to take advantage of Jiang Hui yet.

After all, the royalties haven’t been paid to them yet.

If Jiang Hui received the royalties today, things would be different.

"Team Leader Cui, I would have asked for it even if you didn't say it. Each of us will pay for our own food coupons, but leave the rest to me."

Jiang Hui did not argue with others directly, but confused some concepts.

Anyway, in this era, even if you were entertaining guests, generally everyone had to bring their food coupons.

His action can be considered a normal arrangement for entertaining guests.

Seeing that Jiang Hui was very sincere, and also because Cui Yongfang also wanted to have a good chat with Jiang Hui about the topic of novel writing, she did not refuse.

The four of them quickly got up and went to the state-owned restaurant near the clinic's dormitory building, where they found a seat near the corner and sat down.

All the people present were ladies, so the task of running to the counter to order food was naturally left to Jiang Hui.

Stir-fried fish slices, stir-fried pork slices, braised spareribs, spicy chicken, stir-fried cabbage with lard, plus four large bowls of white rice.

Jiang Hui spent a total of four yuan and ten cents, plus a grain coupon worth one pound and one ounce.

According to the standards of ordering dishes in later generations, you definitely don't need to order so many meat dishes when eating out with a woman.

But times have changed, and now everyone is short of oil and water.

Women hold up half the sky, and that goes for meat too.

So Jiang Hui directly ordered 4 meat dishes and one vegetarian dish, which was basically enough to satisfy everyone.

After Jiang Hui finished ordering the food and sat down, Cui Yongfang and Ge Suhong each handed three or two grain coupons to Jiang Hui.

"Thank you, Team Leader Cui and Editor Ge, for giving me the opportunity to treat us. I will write more articles and try to avoid asking everyone to pay for food coupons next time."

This time, Jiang Hui didn't hesitate and accepted it directly.
