Commission Journey

Every step, made clear.

每一步,都清晰而从容。

A private commission should feel considered before the work begins, while it develops, and after it is delivered.

一项私人委托的专业感,应当存在于开始之前、形成过程中,也存在于作品交付以后。

  2. 02Consider审核需求

    We review fit, capacity, timing, and whether another service would serve you better.

    我们审核需求、容量与时间,也会判断是否有其他方式更适合你。

Plans can change. A clear route remains available after payment.

计划可能发生变化,付款以后也应当知道如何处理。

01 · Student consideration

Forgotten at checkout

遗漏学生支持申请

Request review immediately through your private project channel. Eligibility can be considered before inquiry access or commission work begins, subject to verification and remaining supported capacity.

请立即通过专属项目渠道补充申请。在问询权限开放或委托工作开始前,如仍有支持名额,可完成身份核验并重新审核。

Approved after full payment: eligible difference returned to the original payment method.
全额付款后获批:符合条件的差额原路退回。
02 · Priority review

A new meaningful deadline

付款后出现新的时间节点

A later Priority request is reviewed against the remaining work, current capacity, and the reason for the date. Approval is never automatic.

后续提出的加急,会依据剩余工作量、当前容量与时间节点原因重新审核,并不自动通过。

New date and fee confirmed in writing before any additional payment.
先书面确认新日期与费用,再支付附加费用。
03 · No disruption

If a request is declined

若变更申请未通过

Your original commission scope, delivery date, and place in the schedule remain unchanged. Asking does not put the existing commission at risk.

原委托范围、交付日期与排期位置均保持不变;提出申请不会影响已确认的委托。

Student Rate and Priority cannot be combined.
Student Rate 与 Priority 不可叠加。
01Founder Dialogue追加创始人对谈

May be requested later, subject to the commission stage and remaining founder capacity.

可在之后提出申请,并根据委托阶段与创始人剩余容量审核。

02Scope范围变化

Clarification stays within the work; genuinely new work receives a separate proposal before it begins.

原范围内的澄清继续处理;真正新增的工作会在开始前另行确认。

03Pause or delay暂停或延迟回复

Tell us through the private channel. Any effect on timing is explained before the project calendar changes.

请通过专属渠道说明;如需调整排期,会先解释时间影响,再更新日程。

04Written confirmation书面确认

No new fee, service, or delivery promise is assumed from a conversation alone.

任何新增费用、服务或交付承诺,均不会仅凭一次沟通自动生效。

01
What happens after I apply?提交申请后会发生什么?

Once applications open, an immediate confirmation will include a copy of your answers. We aim to send an initial decision within five business days: an invitation with full scope, fee, and date; the next realistic opening; or an honest note that the commission is not appropriate at this time. You do not pay at application and do not need to chase us while waiting.

正式开放后,你会立即收到提交确认与回答副本。我们会在五个工作日内给出初步结果:包含完整范围、费用与日期的委托邀请;下一个实际可行的档期;或坦诚说明目前并不适合。申请时无需付款,等待期间也无需主动追问。

02
Why not simply talk to AI?为什么不直接与 AI 对话?

You can, and it may be useful for reflection, prompts, or organising thoughts. A Concept of I commission is different: a person follows your material across time, notices what is difficult to state, asks context-specific follow-ups, applies research, business, bilingual, and visual judgement, challenges unsupported directions, and remains accountable for the final work and revision. Technology may support the process, but it is not the author or final judge.

当然可以。AI 可以帮助反思、生成问题或整理思路。Concept of I 的不同之处在于:由人持续理解你的材料,辨认难以直接表达的部分,进行基于情境的追问,综合研究、商业、双语与视觉判断,质疑缺乏依据的方向,并对最终作品与修订负责。技术可以支持过程,但不是作者,也不承担最终判断。

03
Do I need to be good at writing?我需要很会写吗?

No. Guided Inquiry, voice responses, images, and later clarification all exist so that writing ability does not determine how well you can be understood.

不需要。引导式问询、语音回答、图像与后续补充,都用于确保表达能力不会决定你能否被准确理解。

04
What if I do not know which commission to choose?如果我不知道应该选择哪一项呢?

Describe the situation in your application. We may recommend another commission—or tell you honestly when none is appropriate.

你可以在申请中直接描述情况。我们可能建议另一项委托,也会在都不适合时坦诚说明。

05
Is the Concept produced instantly?Concept 会即时生成吗?

No. The work involves research, interpretation, bilingual writing, visual development, and review. Technology may support the process, but it does not replace judgement.

不会。作品需要研究、理解、双语写作、视觉构成与复核。技术可以支持过程,但不能替代判断。

06
What if the first directions do not feel right?如果最初方向都感觉不准确怎么办?

Direction alignment happens before the final book. We examine what feels inaccurate and return to the evidence rather than asking you to simply choose the prettiest name.

最终制作前会进行方向确认。我们会分析不准确之处并回到依据,而不是让你从几个漂亮名字中勉强选择。

07
What does one revision include?一轮修订包含什么?

One consolidated response covering factual corrections, clarity, and justified refinements. It does not include replacing the agreed direction without new information or requesting unlimited alternatives.

一轮集中反馈可以包括事实修正、表达澄清与有依据的调整,但不包括在缺乏新信息时推翻已确认方向,或无限要求替代方案。

08
Will my information or Concept become a public case?我的信息或 Concept 会被公开吗?

No. Commission material is treated as private by default. Names, images, quotations, or complete case material require separate and explicit permission.

不会。委托材料默认按私人内容处理;姓名、图像、引文或完整案例的公开使用,都需要另行取得明确许可。

09
Can I request faster delivery?可以申请加急吗?

A Priority Commission may be requested for a specific and meaningful deadline. It is separately reviewed, carries a substantial fee, and is accepted only when quality will not be compromised.

如存在明确且具有实际意义的时间节点,可以申请 Priority Commission。加急需单独审核并收取较高费用,且仅在不影响质量时接受。

10
How is the commission fee paid?委托费用如何支付?

The standard arrangement is 60% to confirm and begin the commission, followed by 40% before final release. You may instead pay 100% at confirmation. Both options receive the same commission scope, quality, Concept Book, and revision rights.

标准方式为支付 60% 确认并启动委托,剩余 40% 于最终作品正式交付前支付;也可以在确认时一次性支付全款。两种方式的委托范围、作品质量、Concept Book 与修订权益完全相同。

11
What is included with full payment?一次性全款包含什么额外礼遇?

Full payment at confirmation includes one written Concept Continuity Check-in within 30 days after delivery: up to three related questions and a concise bilingual response. It does not include Priority scheduling, Founder Dialogue, a new direction, additional research, or another revision round.

在确认委托时一次性完成全款支付,可于交付后 30 天内获得一次 Concept 延续书面回访,包括最多三个相关问题与一份简洁双语回应。该礼遇不包含加急排期、创始人对谈、新方向、额外研究或新增修订轮次。

12
What if I forgot to request the Student Rate before payment?如果付款后才发现没有申请学生支持怎么办?

Contact us through your private project channel as soon as possible. A request may still be reviewed before inquiry access or commission work begins, subject to current-status verification and a remaining supported place. If approved after full payment, the eligible difference is returned to the original payment method; if work has begun, the rate cannot normally be applied retrospectively. Student Rate and Priority cannot be combined.

请尽快通过专属项目渠道联系我们。在问询权限开放或委托工作正式开始前,如当月仍有支持名额,可以补充申请并完成在读身份验证。若全额付款后获批,符合条件的差额将原路退回;工作开始后通常不再追溯调整。Student Rate 与 Priority 不可叠加。

13
What if a new deadline appears after I have paid?如果付款后才出现新的截止日期怎么办?

You may request a Priority review through your private project channel. We assess the remaining work, present capacity, and the reason for the date. If accepted, you receive a revised delivery date and additional fee in writing before any extra payment is taken. If it is not accepted, your original scope and schedule remain unchanged.

你可以通过专属项目渠道提出 Priority 审核。我们会依据剩余工作量、当前容量与时间节点的实际原因重新判断;通过后,会先书面确认新的交付日期与附加费用,再收取任何额外款项。若未通过,原范围与原排期保持不变。

14
Can I add Founder Dialogue after confirming my commission?确认委托后还能追加创始人对谈吗?

You may request it through your private project channel. Availability depends on the stage of the commission and the founder's remaining capacity. The session, purpose, timing, and fee are confirmed in writing before payment; the standard commission remains complete if a session is unavailable or not selected.

可以通过专属项目渠道提出申请。是否能够追加,取决于委托所处阶段与创始人的剩余容量;对谈形式、目的、时间与费用会在付款前书面确认。即使无法追加或选择不购买,标准委托仍然完整。

15
What if the scope needs to change after work begins?工作开始后发现需要改变范围怎么办?

Tell us as soon as the change becomes clear. We distinguish a clarification within the agreed commission from genuinely new work. If new work is required, we pause that addition and provide a separate scope, fee, and timing for your approval; nothing is added silently.

请在变化明确后尽快告知。我们会区分原委托范围内的澄清与真正新增的工作;如确需扩展,会先暂停新增部分,并提供独立的范围、费用与时间供你确认,不会默认增加收费。

16
What if I need to pause or reply later than expected?如果我需要暂停,或无法按时回复怎么办?

Use the private project channel rather than disappearing from the process. A short delay may simply move the next milestone; a longer pause may require a revised schedule based on the next available capacity. We confirm the effect on timing before changing the project calendar.

请通过专属项目渠道说明,而不需要在流程中失联。短暂延迟可能只会顺延下一节点;较长暂停则可能需要依据下一可用容量重新排期。调整项目日程前,我们会先明确说明对时间的影响。

17
Why are commissions limited?为什么每月限量?

Because attention is part of the work. Limiting capacity protects every accepted commission from being hurried by the next one.

因为注意力本身就是作品的一部分。限制容量,是为了确保每一项已接受的委托都不会被下一项订单匆忙挤压。

Clarity is part of the commission standard.

清晰本身,就是委托标准的一部分。
