Siheyuan: Xu Damao corrects his evil ways

Xu Damao tricked Comrade Mo away by drawing big cakes. At this time, Xia M no longer cared about his image, so he lay on the table and laughed.

Xu Damao looked confused. He couldn't feel where Xia M's smile was.

When Xia M laughed enough, Xu Damao asked: "Sister Xia M, why are you laughing?"

Hearing this, Xia M laughed again. She smiled and said, "Da Mao, I found that you are really full of lies, and your key acting skills are extremely poor."

Xu Damao scratched his head and said, "What lie? Everything I just said is true."

When Xia M heard this, he said straight to the point: "What about the information you have prepared for a day?"

Xu Damao touched his nose in embarrassment, but it was impossible to admit defeat. Xu Damao also responded: "Sister Xia M, you are still talking about me.

Didn't you also report false news to your side?

How can we make a profit of 7,000 yuan here?

You haven’t included my royalties and everyone’s wages yet? "

"Uh..." Xia M's smile stopped suddenly, and she forgot about this incident. If we really count Xu Damao's royalties and everyone's wages, they would still be losing money this month.

Xu Damao's income is divided into two parts, one is profit sharing, and the other is creative royalties.

It was originally agreed that the creative royalties would be divided according to sales volume.

At the beginning, the initial printing volume was 5,000 copies, and the manuscript fee was not much, only a few hundred yuan more.

For example, if Xia M said it would reach 50,000 copies, then Xu Damao could get more than 3,000 in manuscript fees alone.

In this year and age, it is considered a top salary.

But there is no way, who made this comic magazine popular?

On the contrary, those real cartoonists, those writers sent from above, can only get a basic salary plus travel allowance, which is about more than 100 a month, and it is still domestic money.

This is definitely unreasonable, but Xu Damao has no choice. This is how people determine their wages.

Besides, Xu Damao didn't dare to help those people raise their wages. Maybe, if these people went back, they would be implicated in this matter and something unpredictable would happen.

Fortunately, those people are quite contented. According to Xu Damao's request, except for a middle-aged man, the comic writers who came here this time are all young people. They were still earning a salary of 20 or 30 in the unit, but now they have been transferred to Huahua World, more than one hundred per month, what is there to be dissatisfied with?

In terms of creative concepts, Xu Damao was not very in tune with those people at first.

But those things are small things. These days, there are several big names in our domestic comics industry.

Xu Damao suppressed Xia M with just a few words, and now the two of them are friends and have become much closer.

When there is no one around, most people call me by name.

Xia M was a few years older than Xu Damao, so Xu Damao followed Lou Xiao'e and called Xia M his sister.

But when Lou Xiao'e screamed, Xia M was very happy.

But when Xu Damao screamed, he often got a blank stare.

Is this thing being treated differently?

At this time, Xia M had no time to roll her eyes at Xu Damao. With a dull expression, she asked Xu Damao: "I forgot, Damao, what do you think I should do?"

Xu Damao smiled so hard that he said to Xia M: "Sister Xia M, promise me one thing, and I will help you solve this problem."

Xia M's moist red lips were particularly attractive. She looked at Xu Damao uneasily, fearing that Xu Damao would make some request that even their friends would not be able to fulfill.

At this time, most women's thoughts in Hong Kong were still based on tradition.

So basically the popular female stars these days don't end well.

But Xia M is a breath of fresh air. She became famous at a young age.

With her doll-like appearance, she has gained quite a reputation in the film and television industry and is known as one of the Five Golden Flowers of the Great Wall.

Because she is invested in our film and television company, it is not as chaotic as outside.

Of course, this is also related to personal self-esteem and self-love.

She got married early, and two years later she and her husband chose to immigrate.

Why leave, that is the question.

It may be that the husband sings and the wife follows suit, or it may be that the ideal is shattered.

Having said so much, it means that Xia M at this time is quite self-loving. She is not the kind of emotional woman, nor does she have any weird desire to collect.

Her appreciation for Xu Damao is more of an appreciation for outstanding talents. She likes to see Xu Damao giving advice and bragging. There will naturally be misunderstandings, and there will always be some ambiguity.

But she only hoped to maintain the current situation of slight favor, and never thought about what would happen to Xu Damao.

Xia M asked alertly: "What do you want to say first?"

Xu Damao said with a sly smile: "Sister Xia M, the document I put on the desk just now, and what I just said, especially the domestic OEM matter. I hope you can turn it into a real document and submit it." Go up."

Xia M suddenly relaxed, but there was an inexplicable hint of loss in it.

She rolled her eyes at Xu Damao, the beauty was charming and angry, like a picture of beauty in the dark moonlight.

Xia M said angrily: "Why don't you write it yourself?"

"It's too tiring to write so many words." Xu Damao replied matter-of-factly.

At this time, Xia M seemed to have discovered something, and suddenly asked curiously: "So when you came up with the idea and asked your family Lou Xiao'e to write a book, was it just because you were lazy and afraid of writing?"

"Yes!" Xu Damao replied casually, but then he realized what he was saying and quickly changed his words: "Nonsense, that's because my Xiao'e loves literature, and she and I are a perfect match."

After Xu Damao finished speaking, he saw Xia M looking at him with a half-smiling expression.

Xu Damao couldn't help but feel guilty and said: "Let me tell you, even if you tell my Xiao'e, she won't believe it.

The relationship between Xiao'e and me is stronger than gold. "

When Xia M heard such shameless words, she no longer had the desire to complain.

~If Qing is better than Jin Jian, can he marry a concubine if Qing is better than Jin Jian?

But Xia M also knew about the relationship between the two and couldn't talk about that.

Xia M replied: "Okay, I promise you, you can first tell us how to solve our current problems.

There are so many eyes on our side. If we are to lose money this month, we will all be in trouble. "

Xu Damao knew that what Xia M said was true.

In fact, what Xu Damao didn't want to talk about was the matter of advertising. Xu Damao originally waited for those merchants to find him instead of going to them himself.

But there is no way, as Xia M said, although a certain magazine is not waiting to see the profits here, there is a huge difference between profits and losses on the subsequent development of the magazine.

Xu Damao said: "With our actual sales and estimated sales, we can discuss advertising with those amusement parks, children's clothing, children's product dealers, toy dealers, etc.

We only accept children's peripheral advertisements and color page flyers. "

It’s not that Xu Damao is just talking nonsense. There have been gangsters who advertised adults in children’s books.

Have to prevent!
