Chapter 188: Chapter 188 Who’s Scaring Whom?
The chief editor was overwhelmed.
The article by Sheng Tang went viral, with the number of reads skyrocketing.
Reality is too cruel; both children and adults love beautiful fairy tales.
And it tapped into the current hot topic: After the death of Mr. Qiu, the giant of fairy tales, does Huaxia still have good fairy tale authors?
In the future, will our children still be able to enjoy quality fairy tales?
Sheng Tang’s "Cinderella" emerged and shocked people’s hearts.
"Fairy tales aren’t dead."
"An author named Sheng Tang has the style of Mr. Qiu, who is this person?"
"Very imaginative, the story is also very engaging, it’s a top-tier story, and a top-tier fairy tale."
Many people spontaneously shared it in their own circles, and since it was Saturday, everyone wasn’t particularly busy.
As a result, within half a day, this article went viral in social circles, and the shares on Weibo exceeded ten thousand.
Some people said it wasn’t good, claiming it was too much of a little woman’s fantasy. However, the majority held a high opinion of it and showered it with praises.
Jiang Baocu called Sheng Tang.
"Your fairy tale went viral!" Jiang Baocu was very excited, "This is the highest read count my public account has ever had, the tips are also quite substantial and still increasing."
"Really?" Sheng Tang was doing her homework and wasn’t too enthusiastic about this result.
She had already expected it.
"Cinderella" was a household fairy tale in her world, with several animated and live-action films made.
It’s a story of "counterattack".
No matter the era, a humble person’s counterattack can always inspire and resonate with people, so it’s natural for it to go viral.
"Did you see it?" Jiang Baocu asked her, "I’ve posted those comments; you can also see them on Weibo."
"Not yet."
Jiang Baocu: "...."
Girl, you’re too indifferent.
She wasn’t as calm as Sheng Tang; she was overjoyed anyway.
"...The chief editor didn’t allow me to credit you because you’re not their company’s writer; they feared losing resources to outsiders. When I disagreed, she threatened me." Jiang Baocu spoke of other things.
This piqued Sheng Tang’s interest instead, and her tone was slightly serious: "What happened?"
"She asked me to revise it, and if I refused, she would send me a breach of contract notice and make me pay. She even said she would send me a lawyer’s letter." Jiang Baocu laughed, "It’s really funny."
"You didn’t cause trouble, right?"
"No. My aunt’s company has a dedicated legal team for breach of contract disputes. She sent someone over, who said their breach of contract clause itself had problems and was illegal, threatening to sue them in return.
That chief editor was scared and quickly said it was a misunderstanding, ’The contract wasn’t stamped, that’s all, really a misunderstanding,’ she said. Then she called me again, wanting to use the company’s best resources to promote my article."
Sheng Tang couldn’t help but laugh: "Did you agree?"
"I didn’t agree," Jiang Baocu said, "She thought this article wouldn’t work, and now seeing the high read count and tips, she wants a share of the pie, no way."
"If they don’t promote it, do you need to share your tips with them?"
"Only twenty percent," Jiang Baocu said, "But I plan to terminate the contract. They’re a new company, and Lawyer Fan said the contract I signed has loopholes. I don’t need to pay to terminate it; I can even make some money back."
Sheng Tang: "...."
The company knew that Jiang Baocu was a student; they thought she was a little girl in desperate need of money and didn’t expect to provoke a tough cookie.
