Chapter 051 Signing a contract

Fortunately, although the author dr.z cannot be contacted for the time being, the "Fantastic Four", which has just released its first volume, has miraculously become popular throughout the country.

However, there are both positive and negative comments. The positive comments believe that "Fantastic Four" simply created a new genre, a genre that created modern heroic comics with a good image.

The derogatory comments believe that the painting style of "Fantastic Four" is too old, and the main characters are too out of the scope of normal people, so it is basically a product of a weird style.

Of course, whether it is praise or criticism, it all proves the popularity of this "Fantastic Four" to some extent. Therefore, the editor-in-chief of the magazine became more and more anxious to urge the intern editor William.

However, William had no other choice. After all, Dr.Z did not reply to any of his emails.

Not only was there no reply to the email, but there was not even a normal update for several days, which made William a little suspicious. Could it be that Dr.Z planned to stop painting and become a "eunuch"?

Of course, the word "eunuch" is a word that only Chinese people know, but the meaning is this. Fortunately, the final result is that William did not wait in vain after all, and suddenly updated a new one in the middle of the night in "Fantastic Four"

Shortly after the first volume, the author dr.z finally replied to William. However, the meaning was that he did not want to sign a contract?

How is this possible?

When William saw this email, he felt bad. So, he asked the other party what he meant. As a result, he learned from the other party that the author himself was not from the country M?

You are not from Country M, but you draw such pure and authentic comics of Country M? Moreover, the dialogue content and other contents are all in English.

But the fact is the fact. The author Dr.Z is indeed not from the M country. Therefore, William has no choice but to give up the "fantasy" of persuading the other party to come over to sign the contract, and instead seeks the opinion of the magazine editor.

As a result, the attitude of the editor-in-chief of the magazine was very firm: Sign it! You must sign it! Since he can't come to country m to sign the contract, he will go to China with the contract to sign it.

Therefore, William, who was still in the internship period, was forced to pack his luggage that day and prepared pitifully to run to China to find Zhang Chen.

"Well?"

Zhang Chen was really confused when he received the news that editor William was coming to China to sign a contract with him.

Is this true? Speaking of which, I actually don’t really want to sign the contract!

Speaking of which, if he hadn't logged into that e-mail address on a whim that day, the editor William would never have been able to contact him in his life.

However, since you don’t need to go to country m to sign the contract, then just sign it. There are still benefits. After signing the contract, it will be more convenient in terms of copyright, and you will get protection from the governments of various countries, especially in country m. After all,

, his current works are sent to country m.

However, he still didn't care at all about the news that William was coming. He had been busy explaining to Xiao Xinyue these days, fearing that she would be unhappy because she was going to kindergarten soon.

The effect is also obvious. Because she has been "playing" with Zhang Chen these past few days, little Xinyue doesn't even remember that she will go to kindergarten soon.

However, when Su Mi came to pick up the little one, she finally remembered it again, so she made a fuss and refused to get in the car. Fortunately, Su Mi said at this time that she was just choosing a kindergarten for her, not right away.

Just went to kindergarten.

"Really? Mom."

"It's a lie. It's a puppy."

After hearing this, the little guy finally stopped making trouble, but still asked with teary eyes.

"Really. Mom won't lie to you. If mom lies to you, she's just a puppy! Okay?"

Su Mi made a dumbfounded promise. Only then did she successfully coax Xiao Xinyue away.

Two days later, the intern editor William had arrived.

When he made an appointment to meet with Zhang Chen that day, Zhang Chen was sitting in the clinic. So, after a brief consideration, he asked William to come directly to the clinic to see him.

"dr.z?"

"Amazing! Are you really a doctor?"

William was really surprised when he actually met Zhang Chen, because no matter how much he thought about it, he probably couldn't have imagined that such a talented comic book author could actually be a doctor.

This is incredible.

"Yes. I'm a doctor."

"Let's get down to business."

Because he didn't want to talk nonsense with William, Zhang Chen spoke in extremely fluent English. And William was suddenly shocked by Zhang Chen's pure American English.

Oh my god, is this person really not from the M country? How come this pure American English is more authentic than mine?

Doesn’t it mean that Asians are not good at English? Especially in Greater China where Chinese is spoken. Because Chinese is widely used in Greater China, even most school classes offer English courses.

, but in fact, most Asians cannot speak English well at all.

The business talks went very smoothly because Zhang Chen didn't have high requirements for signing the contract.

There are only two main requirements. One is that his identity must be kept strictly confidential.

Today, if William hadn't been a foreigner and the magazine was far away in country M, Zhang Chen would never have chosen to meet William.

The second is that the contract is only about the work "Fantastic Four", not the author name "dr.z". In other words, if Zhang Chen has other works in the future, it will have nothing to do with William and the others. If William and the others want to

It's okay to sign a contract with Zhang Chen, but the contract needs to be signed again.

These two requirements are completely acceptable to William. The first point goes without saying, it is just to keep Zhang Chen’s identity confidential. Zhang Chen doesn’t need to mention this, their magazine will do it. After all, there is no

Who would take the initiative to provide information about their outstanding authors to competitors? Doesn’t that give people an opportunity to poach themselves?

The second requirement made William a little tangled. After all, compared to signing Zhang Chen, the result of just signing "Fantastic Four" is not perfect.

However, after William called the editor-in-chief on the spot for instructions, the reply he received was that the contract could be signed. As for the treatment of the contract, Zhang Chen was directly offered the treatment of a second-tier author in country M.
