Divine Lucky Star 56 It's Perfect!

"God, what's going on today?!" Director Gao completely freaked out. He stared at Wang Hao for a long time, then said in frustration, "Oh, Hao! Hey, Hao! Did you step on dog poop this morning? What's going on with you?!"

F*ck, how did you know I stepped on dog poop this morning?

Wang Hao broke into a sweat. "I… I don't know…"

"Fine, you just go there and surf the Internet!" Director Gao said, then immediately shook his head. "No, no, no. You should take a day off today. Go home and play on your computer, okay? Don't make more trouble here. We don't need you right now. Just take a day off!"

"Ah…" Wang Hao asked carefully, "Should… should I come tomorrow?"

"Yes! Come back tomorrow!" It was as if Star Gao was sending a bane away. "I'll see you then!"

Wang Hao was speechless.

Damn, I was so close to losing the job. It's a good thing Li Fei agreed to be my teacher yesterday! My dad would have a breakdown if I got fired after just two days of work!

Let's hurry up and leave!

As Wang Hao left, all the crew members stayed far and looked at him as if they were looking at a walking disaster…

I really can't help it. It's my unlucky day today…

Fine, I'll go to the Internet café. The editor sent me a message about the contract yesterday!

Let's go to the one that worships me. Everything will be fine with Guan Yu there, right?

Wang Hao took a taxi and went straight to the Internet café. Once he walked in, the owner welcomed him warmly. "Ah, boss, you're here?"

"Hm, yeah." Wang Hao nodded. People here were much friendlier toward him — then, "snap," the power went out!

Wang Hao was speechless.

The owner was speechless.

"I should go." Wang Hao was drenched in sweat. Looks like even Guan Yu can't take it…

The owner said, "You're always welcomed, boss!"

Ah, it seems that the misfortune is going to give me another day of woe. Let me see if the phone works… Huh? It's working. It has reception — that's great!

Wang Hao sat in a cool spot and opened QQ on his phone — Orange has sent you a friend request. Verification: Fengyun contract editor.

Ahahaha, good. This is great. I have to quickly accept this.

Sunday Wang: "Hello, is this the editor from Fengyun?"

Orange: "Hello, I'm here to talk to you about the contract."

Sunday Wang: "Okay, please do." A contract! This is the first time in my life! I'm so excited!

Orange: "So, I have a form here. Please fill it in and send it back to me."

Sunday Wang: "Okay, I'm on it."

The 4G network is so quick. Look at the speed, everything loaded in a blink… Damn it! I can't open an Excel file on my phone!

Sunday Wang: "Sorry, I can't edit documents on my phone. I need a computer to do that… "

Orange: "Alright, send it back to me when you're done."

Let's go home now!

Wang Hao left immediately and entered the elevator… Ahahaha! It didn't get stuck this time. Awesome!

He looked for the keys to open the door… the keys…

Wang Hao was speechless.

F*ck! I'm still wearing my work clothes! I left my keys on set!

What should I do?

Wang Hao had to make an important decision right now. Should he go back to the film set and become a walking disaster? Or should he go to the Internet café instead?

"If I go back to the set and something happens, I'll lose my job…" Wang Hao felt like he had lost all of his energy. "I think I should go to the Internet café. If things go wrong there, at least I'll be able to take it!"

Although the remuneration package for my job is just average and I can do without it, Mom and Dad are watching. I don't want to mess up and give Dad high blood pressure.

Even if the novel is a hit and might make a lot of money, it'll still take time, and Mom and Dad will only change how they feel about it when they really see the outcome. For the moment, it's important to have a job that they recognize.

Since he had made the decision, Wang Hao headed to the Internet café right away.

Luckily, nothing happened on my way here. Let's turn on the computer!

He opened QQ. Oh, yeah! Logged in successfully! This is a good start!

Then, he uploaded the novel, downloaded the form, and filled in his information. Everything went well! For one second, Wang Hao even thought that his fortune had changed! Great start… F*ck, the blue screen of death!

It's a deep freeze! For all the computers in the café! Reboot!

Damn, I don't believe you can do it again! He did everything all over again. When the form was finally ready, he sent it back to Orange…

It's going smoothly! Next is to talk about the terms.

Orange: "Hello, here's the contract. Please have a look."

There were some parts of the contract which Wang Hao didn't understand, so he asked about them directly.

Sunday Wang: "There's something that's unclear to me. How do we split the e-subscription fees?"

Orange: "It'll be 50/50. If you maintain stable updates, there'll be a bonus every six months, which is distributed in January and July respectively. The bonus is 10% of the total manuscript fee."

This was easy to understand. Wang Hao then asked again, "What about royalty payments?"

Orange: "Royalties are split equally. Our website will help you with recommendations, but you'll be the one to make the final decision."

Sunday Wang: "I get the part about how royalties are split, but how exactly do recommendations work?"

Orange: "If your novel gets good results, we'll recommend it to other companies, and they'll offer you a price for purchasing the copyright as long as they like it. As for the price, it's up to you to decide whether or not to accept it, and you'll need to sign the agreement yourself."

Sunday Wang: "Oh, I see. Okay, I'll have a look again. If there's anything else I don't understand, I'll ask you again."

Wang Hao started thinking it over.

As a transmigrator, Wang Hao had a certain understanding of copyright issues.

He knew that in the previous world, the value of a top intellectual property could be worth over ten million! Right now, Fengyun was offering him a 50% share, which meant a discernible loss of half of his income. Yet, how could he reject the terms?

Wang Hao shook his head. It was clear that he had to agree to them.

First, he was just a rookie, and wasn't in a position to negotiate terms with the website. Second, only the website could recommend his work to other companies. It was definitely impossible to find another way to do it himself.

For these two reasons, Wang Hao couldn't refuse to sign the contract. Negotiating the other terms would be a matter for the future; he could just leave it for the time being.

The most important thing is that I have the right to set the final price, so if a company makes me a low offer, I can reject it, hehe.

Sunday Wang: "The contract looks good to me. Right, what about publishing?"

Orange: "We let our authors deal with publishing themselves. Our company won't interfere."

Hehe, it's perfect!

Wang Hao nodded immediately. "Very well. It's all settled, then!"
