Ming Court Building, North Point, Hong Kong Island.

"What, you said that the magazine was selling well, and now it has printed another 20,000 copies?" Ni Yu yelled at Shen Xicheng angrily, his face in disbelief.

"Yes, big brother. Shen Xicheng nodded, "When my friend told me, I also thought it was fake news deliberately put by Jin Yong. But I asked a few publishers, walked through a few newsstands myself, and found out that the magazine was really selling. ”

"Bastard, how is this possible?!" Ni Eye couldn't believe it. That magazine was scolded so badly by them, and it stands to reason that its reputation has long been stinky, how can it still have such good sales?

"Could it be that they secretly found someone to buy it back?" Ni Jing suddenly had an idea and immediately asked.

Magazines and newspapers are afraid that the sales will not be enough, which will affect advertising revenue, so they send people to secretly buy back, which is not uncommon.

"Probably not. Shen Xicheng shook his head, "I asked the newsstand owner about it, and most of the people who came to buy magazines were acquaintances, not like they were hired." ”

"Then what the hell is going on?" Ni Ji couldn't understand it at all, how could a magazine become more and more scolded?! This result is just like a joke with him, and this joke is very unfunny.

"I heard my friend relay Kim Yong's words, in fact, our large-scale criticism is equivalent to promoting this magazine in disguise. It would have taken a lot of money and a lot of time to achieve fame, but now it has been scolded by us and reached it in two or three days. Shen Xicheng spread his hands and said.

"What?!" After hearing him, Ni Xuan's eyes suddenly widened.

He spent so much effort, spent so much money, and invited so many people to make a wedding dress for others?!

No wonder Jin Yong has never come forward to settle this matter, no wonder Summer's performance has been so calm, it turns out that people have long known that the result will be like this.

Thinking that he was like a clown jumping off the beam in the past few days, Ni Huang suddenly became annoyed and angry, and with a wave of his hand, everything on the desk was swept to the ground. The white paper flew, the inkwell smashed to the ground, and the ink flowed everywhere, making a mess all over the ground.

"Bastard, bastard!!" he cursed loudly in anger, he really didn't expect that he would make such a mistake, and it was a shame to be watched as a joke for a long time!

"Big brother, calm down, don't get angry, so as not to get angry. Shen Xicheng hurriedly persuaded, his face was also hot.

He originally thought that such a big battle would definitely shoot that magazine to death. Unexpectedly, it backfired, not only did people not collapse, but became more and more courageous and prosperous. slapped them hard with such a result, it's so depressing to think about.

"Bastard, bastard!" Ni Huang still couldn't extinguish the fire, this matter was too embarrassing. He will become a laughing stock in the future, and I don't know how many people chew their tongues behind their backs.

"Big brother, don't be angry, the most important thing now is what we should do next. Shen Xicheng said bitterly.

"Yes, you're right. Ni was stunned for a moment, and then nodded, "The most important thing now is to tell those book reviewers not to write those ghost book reviews anymore." Made, not only did not scold the stinky people, but helped them to make a name for themselves, these people are really stupid. ”

Shen Xicheng pursed his lips, thinking to himself that you didn't come up with this idea, how can you blame someone else now?" "Big brother, in fact, you don't need to tell them, they won't write anymore." He said, waving his hand.

"Why?" asked Ni Eye, puzzled.

"They think you give you too little money. You only gave them 40,000 yuan each, they helped you write four articles, 10,000 yuan for one article, and they have already delivered the goods. Yesterday they told me that if you want them to write again, you have to pay them again. Shen Xicheng explained.

"Made, bastard!" Ni suddenly became angry when he heard this, and flew up and kicked over his chair.

"Oh......" Then he slammed his butt on the floor, and clung to his feet and howled.

"Big brother, are you okay?" Shen Xicheng hurriedly asked.

"Call an ambulance, my toe is broken. Ni wailed.

Shen Xicheng hurriedly called an ambulance and sent him to the hospital for an examination, and sure enough, because of his fractured right toe, he couldn't walk on the ground for at least two months.

"Made, I'm not done with him. Ni Eye hurt in his feet and hurt in his heart, and he hated Summer to the core.

If you don't bring him down, you'll always be a joke.

……

In the summer, he worked at the magazine until the afternoon, during which time he interviewed a few more people.

With the hot sales of "Fantasy World" and the expansion of popularity, many literary young people who love writing have come to apply after seeing the job advertisement.

Before, there were only twenty or thirty people a day, but today more than 100 people come a day. The best of the best, Summer has initially built its own creative team.

He recruited a total of five people, including Liang Jiahui, plus the editor-in-chief Tang Congsheng, so that he had six people. Writing a book by one person just frees him from the tedious writing.

Summer also signed a confidentiality contract with six people, the contract stipulates that Party B is also the creative assistant, and no information related to creation shall be leaked to the outside world during his employment, and the outline and manuscript shall not be transmitted, otherwise he will not only be fined for wages, but also to pursue losses. And within two years of leaving the company, you will not be allowed to engage in novel writing, and offenders will also be held accountable for losses.

The reason why the confidentiality contract was signed in the summer was also just in case. Beware of people who are greedy for money, or resentful, or secretly leak manuscripts and outlines for the sake of fame, which will cause great losses to the magazine.

And agreed to leave the post within two years, not allowed to engage in novel creation, and in the summer was also worried about teaching bad apprentices and starving the master. It's not difficult to write a fantasy novel, sometimes you can write a fantasy novel by changing the name and routine.

In case after they finish their studies, they think that the salary is too low, and they leave with a lot of ability, and they don't even have time to cry in the summer.

If there is a gap of two years, it will be difficult for him to pursue a career in fiction writing. One is that the original routine has become obsolete after two years of development, and the other is that if you don't write a novel for two years, you will also be born. Even if you want to write, you won't be able to get it back to its original state.

Of course, in the past two years, a non-compete compensation will be paid in the summer, but compared to the possible losses, it is really only a small amount of money.

Although everyone had some objections to signing such a contract, the work was not easy to come by, and in the end everyone signed it.

Summer put away the contract and looked at the few of them, "Everyone, now I officially welcome you to join our fantasy world magazine, we will all be colleagues in the future, we must unite as one, work hard to write novels, and work hard to make money!" he raised his hand and shouted loudly.

Hearing him shout like this, everyone also felt a little excited, after all, who doesn't want to make money.

"I promise you all in the summer that as long as you work hard enough, I will not treat you badly. Xia smiled and said, "In two days, I will formulate a reward and punishment method, and the initial concept is to score everyone according to their performance." When the score accumulates to a certain level, the salary will be increased by a notch. Conversely, if the performance is not good, the score accumulates to a certain level, and the salary will drop by one notch. Summer briefly introduced.

"The purpose of this is to distribute according to work and survive the fittest. As long as you have the ability, it is possible to earn more than me. If you can't, don't complain even if you are eliminated at that time. Am I clear enough?" said Summer, glancing at everyone.

Everyone nodded. If there are certain rules that give them the opportunity to get paid more, they are certainly willing to try. It's better than earning a dead wage all the time.

"Okay, then that's it, let's go back to work. Summer smiled, "Tonight, I'll invite you to dinner!"

"Yay!" everyone rejoiced when he said this.

……

In the evening, Summer took everyone to eat together, and after eating, everyone shouted that they wanted to sing K.

Xia Ji was worried about Wang Qixian, and he didn't want to accompany them to go crazy anymore, so he asked Yixin to go instead of him, and all the expenses were recorded in his own account.

Someone had a treat, so naturally everyone didn't care anymore and went together in a noisy way.

In the summer, I take the car back home.

"Big brother, are you back?" Xia Xue was doing her homework in the house when she heard a voice and greeted her.

"Yes. Summer nodded, "How's it going, are you okay at home?" he asked, pretending to be nothing.

"Are you asking me, or is it asking the next door?" Xia Xue grinned.

Summer was slightly embarrassed, "Both asked." ”

"I'm fine, and so is Sister Hyun. Xia Xue said with a smile.

Summer was stunned for a moment, and then asked with a smile, "Little sister, can you help me bring a message to her?"

"Of course you can, but what's in it for me?" Xia Xue grinned.

"What benefits do you want?" said Xia with a smile and a smile, not expecting to be ripped off by her little sister.

"Well, you accompany me to Ocean Park on Sunday. Xia Xue blinked and said.

"Go to Ocean Park, okay. Summer thought about it for a moment and nodded in agreement.

"Well, then what message do you want me to give?" Xia Xue asked overjoyed when she saw that her eldest brother had agreed.

"You tell her that the matter has been resolved and that there is no need to worry about me anymore. Summer said.

"What's the matter?" Xia Xue said suspiciously.

"No need to ask, she knows. Summer waved his hand.

"Hmph!" Xia Xue couldn't help but wrinkle her nose angrily when she saw that he was speechless.
