Rebirth of top photographers

Chapter 73 Another signing negotiation
"Has the printing been processed?" Feilin asked her assistant while making a phone call in the office.
"It's taken care of." The assistant nodded affirmatively.

"Okay, let the courier company deliver the magazine according to the specified time." Feilin looked at her watch. Today is November [-]st, which is the date when the magazine will be released.

For those members who subscribe, they must ensure that the magazine reaches different areas and different people on the same day.

The e-magazine will be released at a later date, and major accounts will also update the most outstanding photos of the magazine to attract those target users to subscribe.

Feilin has been busy with layout matters these days. Although some colleagues did not agree with her decision to reserve the best layout for Qin Yi's photos, she suppressed them all.

Nowadays, the sales of magazines are getting worse day by day. If you continue to continue the previous habit and use some studio shots that are the same as other competitors, it will not reflect the uniqueness of the magazine at all.

Feilin has been the editor-in-chief for five years. During this period, there have been highs and lows, but she has overcome them one by one because she has an artistic sense that is beyond ordinary people.

Especially because she intensively browses Instagram, Weibo and other software every day, she has a very intuitive feel for the current fashion trends.

She can clearly feel that today's young people's aesthetics towards fashion and art are beginning to be more personalized and unique.They reject template photos in the same style and prefer photos that highlight their own style.

Of course, even if this kind of stylization becomes an Internet celebrity, it will quickly be photographed too much and poorly.But young people are still looking for the next one.

And since you are betting, bet big.She looked at that set of photos carefully, and she felt that they were very consistent with the theme of the next stage of the magazine, so why bother testing cautiously? It was better to be more radical.

Especially after several magazine photographers were poached by competing products, she became angry.

"If you poach me, no one will use me?" Feilin stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with her arms folded, took out her mobile phone and dialed Chen Pingsheng's number.

"Sister Feilin, what's wrong?" Chen Pingsheng was lifting weights in the gym when he answered the phone.

After this period of exercise, he felt that his arms and shoulders had developed a certain contour, and he looked in the mirror and felt like a tough guy.

"Shengsheng, are you free now?" Feilin heard the music coming from the other end of the phone.

Chen Pingsheng walked out of the gym, sat on a chair and said, "Okay, I'm free."

"Okay, I mainly want to talk to you about the signing of the contract." Feilin's words were no longer as tough as when she first negotiated the contract.

"Signing a contract?" Chen Pingsheng asked.

"Yes, after our cooperation during this period, I feel that although you are still young, your level is comparable to that of some photographers in the magazine. I hope that we can have a deeper and longer cooperation." Feilin's The wording was very conservative. After all, the company's constraints were always there, and she couldn't just make a conclusion based on her own senses.

In fact, she and the company fought for a long time before getting permission for this contract.

After all, in the eyes of many company executives, a big kid should start as an intern. How can he soar to the top and work directly as a senior photographer?
How can I pay this price in the future?
Feilin understands this idea. This is the subconscious mind of the entire society. No matter how powerful you are, you just can't get more money if you don't have the qualifications.

But now Style is in a turbulent time, and she doesn't have many available staff. If there are no top photographers who can hold the spotlight, it will easily be overtaken by other magazines.

And Chen Pingsheng was not a young photographer in the normal sense. From a few brief exchanges, Feilin could see that he had a clear understanding of his own strength and talent.

Simply put, he knows how much his photos are worth.This means that if the pressure is based on seniority, then Feilin doesn't think he will accept this trick at all.People can completely break out of this barrier and become independent photographers relying on fans in the film industry.

Look at the growth rate of his account, it is now 11.Feilin has no doubt that after posting Qin Yi's photos, his fans in the film industry will grow faster.

If we were to use film before, the audience would be limited.

Now that he has bought a new camera, the photos taken by Chen Pingsheng are now acceptable to the public.

"So Sister Feilin, what kind of contract do you plan to give me?" Chen Pingsheng asked after being silent for a moment.

Feilin bit her lip and used her hands to outline a perfect curve of her figure: "I will set the price based on a high-level photography contract in the industry. At the same time, regarding the copyright issue, I think we can share the copyright equally. This time, there is no other All you need to add to the contract is that you are not allowed to take photos of competing products.”

"Is there a guarantee?" Chen Pingsheng didn't want to face the situation of having nothing to gain if he didn't get a single order after signing the contract.

"Yes, there is a guaranteed monthly income of 1 yuan. And commission is based on the percentage of magazine sales. Of course, if you feel you don't want the commission, you can also increase the basic salary."

Feilin didn't say it clearly, but Chen Pingsheng realized the flexibility here.

If the commission is based on sales volume, the gap between the upper limit and the lower limit will be very large.

"Yeah, I understand. Is there any word on the signing time?" Chen Pingsheng continued to ask about the details of the contract.

Feilin bit her lip again and said, "Three years."

"I'm sorry, I can't accept it." Chen Pingsheng refused without saying a word.

He felt that three years was too long. He knew that he would occupy a place in the photography circle, but he did not want to sell himself too cheaply.

"It takes three years to sign a contract. This is the company's rule." Feilin was a little helpless, feeling that Chen Pingsheng was like a hairy hedgehog at this time and couldn't keep his mouth shut.

"Sorry, Sister Feilin. I can't agree to it in three years."

"Three years is not a long time? I don't quite understand why you refused?" Feilin was also a little angry. Could it be that three years can make a person's worth change drastically?Why does Chen Pingsheng dare to be so sure?

Even if he is a genius, even if his talent far exceeds that of ordinary people?Without a platform and no works, why should he?
So Feilin persuaded her seriously: "I think you should think about it carefully. You must know that our style, as the leading magazine in China, can provide you with a very large space to play, whether it is venues, props, assistants, or various commercial shoots. Shooting with celebrities. It’s what many people dream of. I don’t know why you don’t think about it and just keep an eye on the time.”

After finishing speaking angrily, after waiting for a long time, Chen Pingsheng's calm voice came from the other end of the phone: "Sister Feilin, I understand what you said. For me, style will be the best now. Pedal. But you forgot another thing, I’m in the art photography business.”

"What happened to art photography?" Feilin was a little confused.

Then she looked stunned, as if she had thought of something.

"Freezing the world, that stage is what I value more." Chen Pingsheng's tone was extremely determined, as if he had already seen what it would be like to stand on the podium one day in the future.
