080 [Do it yourself]

Mingyuan Building, North Point, Hong Kong Island.

"What, you said that the magazine sold very well, but now it has printed 20,000 copies." Ni Geng shouted at Chen Xicheng in anger, looking disbelief.

"Yes, brother." Chen Xicheng nodded, "When my friend told me, I thought it was Jin Yong's intentional fake news. But I asked several publishers and went to several newsstands in person, and found that the magazine was really a best-selling."

"Bastard, how is this possible?" Ni Geng couldn't believe it. The magazine was scolded so badly by them. Logically speaking, the reputation has long been terrible. How could it still have such a good sales volume?

"Can they secretly ask someone to buy it back?" Ni Geng suddenly had an idea and immediately questioned.

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

"It shouldn't be." Chen Xicheng shook his head, "I've asked the newsstand owner. Basically, those who come to buy magazines are acquaintances, and they don't look like they are hired."

"Then what's going on?" Ni Geng couldn't understand at all. How could a magazine get more and more popular? The result was like joking with him, and this joke was very unfunny.

"I heard from my friend reposting Jin Yong that our large-scale criticism is equivalent to promoting this magazine in disguise. Its fame, which originally took a lot of money and a lot of time, is now achieved in two or three days after we scold it." Chen Xicheng spread his hands.

"What" After hearing him say, Ni Geng's eyes widened.

After working so hard, spending so much money, and inviting so many people, I actually made wedding dresses for others, what is this?

No wonder Jin Yong has never come forward to settle this matter, no wonder Xia Tian has always been so calm, it turns out that people have known that the result will be like this.

Thinking of the past few days, Ni Geng was suddenly angry and embarrassed. With a wave of his hand, everything on the desk swept to the ground. White paper flew, and ink bottles smashed to the ground, shattered the ground, and ink flowed everywhere, making the ground messy.

"Bastard, bastard" he cursed loudly in anger. He didn't expect that he would make such a mistake. He was laughed at by others for a long time. It was so shameless.

"Brother, calm down and don't be angry anymore, so as not to get angry." Chen Xicheng hurriedly advised, his face also burning.

He originally thought that if he had such a big battle this time, he would definitely shoot the magazine tightly. Unexpectedly, things went against his wishes. Not only did they not collapse, but they became more and more courageous and prosperous. He slapped them hard with such achievements. It was so depressing to think about it.

"Bastard, bastard" Ni Geng still couldn't get rid of the fire. This matter was so embarrassing. He, Ni Geng, would become a laughing stock in the future. I wonder how many people are chewing behind their backs.

"Brother, don't be angry anymore. The most important thing now is what we should do next." Chen Xicheng said with a heartache.

"Yeah, you're right." Ni Geng was stunned and nodded just now, "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 others, but instead helped them make their reputation. These people are really idiots."

Chen Xicheng curled his lips, thinking that this idea was not yours, why did you blame others now? "Brother, you don't need to tell them, and they won't write anymore." He waved his hand and said.

"Why" Ni Geng asked in confusion.

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

"Made, bastard." When Ni Geng heard this, he was furious again and kicked over his chair.

"Oh" Then he thrust his butt on the floor, and then he screamed with his feet.

"Brother, are you okay?" Chen Xicheng asked hurriedly.

"Call an ambulance quickly, my toes are broken." Ni Geng wailed.

Chen Xicheng quickly called an ambulance and took it to the hospital for examination. Sure enough, because he had a fracture of his right toe, he could not walk at least two months.

"Mad, I'm not done with him." Ni Geng's feet hurt again, his heart hurt again, and he almost hated Xia Tian to his bones.

If he doesn't destroy him, he will always be a joke.

In the summer, he worked in the magazine until afternoon, and during this period he interviewed some people.

With the popularity of the fantasy world and its popularity has expanded, many literary youths who love writing come to apply for jobs after seeing the recruitment advertisement.

Before, there were only 20 to 30 people every day, but today there were more than 100 people a day. The best ones were selected, and summer has initially built its own creative team.

He recruited five people in total, including Liang Jiahui, and editor-in-chief Tang Congsheng, so that he could use six people. Each person wrote a book, which just liberated him from the hard-working writing.

Xia Tian also signed a confidentiality contract with six people. The contract stipulates that Party B, that is, the creative assistant, shall not disclose any information, outlines, or manuscripts related to creation to the outside world during his tenure, nor shall he be allowed to spread it, otherwise he will not only be deducted from his salary, but he will also be held accountable for the losses. Moreover, within two years of resignation, he will not be allowed to engage in novel creation work, and violators will also be held accountable for the losses.

The reason for signing confidentiality contracts is just in case. Beware that someone is greedy for money, or feels angry, or secretly leaks manuscripts, outlines, etc. to make a name for themselves, which will cause great losses to the magazine.

It is agreed that within two years of resignation, he will not be allowed to engage in novel creation. Xia Tian is also worried about teaching his apprentice to starve his master to death. It is actually not difficult to write a fantasy novel. Sometimes you can change the name and routine and write a fantasy novel.

If they think their salary is too low after they finish their studies and have a lot of skills to leave, they will not even have time to cry in summer.

If there is a two-year gap period, it will be difficult for him to engage in novel writing. One is that the original routine has become outdated after two years of development; the other is that if he does not write novels for two years, he will also be able to do it by hand. Even if he wants to write, he will not be able to find his original state.

Of course, in the past two years, there will be a compensation for the limited competition in summer, but compared with the possible losses, it is really just a small amount of money.

Although everyone had some objections to signing such a contract, the work was hard-won, and everyone finally signed it.

Xia Tian closed the contract and looked at them, "Everyone, now I officially welcome you to join our Fantasy World Magazine. In the future, everyone will be colleagues. We must unite and work hard to write good novels and make money." He raised his hand and shouted loudly.

Everyone was a little excited when he shouted, after all, who doesn’t want to make money?

"I promise you all that as long as you work hard enough, I will not treat everyone badly." Xia Tian said with a smile, "In two days, I will formulate a reward and punishment method. The initial concept is to give scores based on everyone's performance. If the scores accumulate to a certain level, the salary will be increased by one level. On the contrary, if the performance is not good, the scores accumulate to a certain level, the salary will be reduced by one level." Xia Tian briefly introduced.

"The purpose of doing this is to distribute according to work and survive the fittest. As long as you have the ability, you can earn more than me. If you can't do it, don't blame others even if you are eliminated. I've said it clearly enough," Xia Tian glanced at everyone and said.

Everyone nodded. If there are certain rules that give them a chance to get higher rewards, of course they are willing to try. It is much better than always earning a dead salary.

"Okay, then that's all, let's go back and do things." Xia Tian smiled, "I'll treat you to dinner tonight."

"Yeah" Everyone was happy when he heard what he said.

In the evening, we took everyone to have dinner together. After dinner, everyone yelled to go and sing.

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

When someone treats you, everyone naturally no longer cares about it and goes out to make a fuss.

In summer, I took a bus back home.

"Brother, you are back." Xia Xue was doing her homework in the house and heard the voice coming out.

"Yeah." Xia Tian nodded, "How is it, is it okay at home?" He asked as if nothing had happened.

"Are you asking me or asking next door?" Xia Xue giggled.

Xia Tian was slightly embarrassed, "Both asked."

"I'm fine, Sister Xian is fine, either." Xia Xue smiled.

Xia Tian was stunned, then asked with a smile, "Little sister, can you send me a message to her?"

"Of course it's OK, but what are my benefits?" Xia Xue giggled.

"What benefits do you want?" Xia Tian said laughing and crying, but she didn't expect that she would be snatched away by her younger sister.

"Let's do it, accompany me to the Ocean Park on Sunday." Xia Xue blinked.

"Go to Ocean Park, okay." Xia Tian thought about it for a moment, nodded and agreed.

"Well, then what message do you want me to send?" Xia Xue asked happily when she saw that her elder brother agreed.

"Tell her that the matter has been resolved smoothly, so don't worry about me anymore." Xia Tian said.

"What's the matter?" Xia Xue said in confusion.

"No need to ask more, she knows." Xia Tian waved his hand.

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