Chapter 25

"However, we have always maintained an open nurturing attitude towards newcomers. Since these authors have their own demands, we can also properly consider whether the other party's demands are reasonable." The bald editor-in-chief touched his head. The right hand holding the pen kept tapping on the table, and he continued: "Well, just tell the author, as long as the next book is better than this one, we can definitely cooperate in developing these derivative products. Well, well, if the other party is not satisfied, we can consider adding such a paragraph to the contract. When authorizing the adaptation, the original author must be consulted. If the original author does not agree, the adaptation right will be invalid..."

After the editor-in-chief heard the words of the editor-in-chief, his mouth grew huge, and he was speechless in surprise.

And this kind of operation?

Seeing the surprised expression of his subordinates, the editor-in-chief coughed a few times and said, "Anyway, these adaptation rights can't be sold, so it's better to show up. If the other party really wants to go back, we can't set this precedent, otherwise What if every author wants to step on us? Ask the other party to set up a company and buy it back in the name of the company. Oh, the price should not be too high. 200 million will be packaged. Of course, the average order of the other party's next book must exceed [-]. Just do it."

"Gudong..." The editor-in-chief swallowed hard, touched the sweat on his forehead, and said, "Editor-in-chief, isn't this asking price a bit too high?"

Hearing the subordinate's question, the editor-in-chief looked at the editor-in-chief suspiciously, and asked with a half-smile: "Do you think that if the other party publishes a book, the next book's score can reach [-]?"

When the editor-in-chief heard this, he immediately shook his head with a wry smile.

The novel "Zhu Xian" has only reached more than 5000 average subscriptions under Jiang Huo's painstaking hype. Although there is still a rising trend, it will return to [-] at most. It is almost impossible to continue to rise.The editor-in-chief's condition is that the average subscription of the next book will reach [-]!This is simply an impossible task!
unless!Unless the novel written by the other party can attract global attention!

But is this possible?
The editor-in-chief was a little skeptical.

"Well, let's do this first. You disclose these two pieces of information to the other party and see what kind of reaction this jerk will have." Enraged to seal the pen.

The reason is also very simple, mainly because Jiang Huo himself offered to sign a platinum contract, so the bald editor-in-chief dared to open his mouth like a lion, wanting one to his stomach, and directly tied Jiang Huo to his battleship.

As for Jiang Huo, he really wrote books with an average order of [-].

The editor-in-chief will admit it.

Anyway, he felt that, judging from the current form, this was simply impossible, and the difficulty of the matter was about the same as that of humans landing on the moon!
When Jiang Huo saw the penguin message sent by the other party, his fair face immediately pulled down.

Jiang Huo's brows were tightly frowned, the shape of "Sichuan" appeared on his forehead, and a look of annoyance appeared between his brows.

Damn it, I'm so proud of myself!
Jiang Huo stretched out his hand and slapped his forehead, regretting endlessly.

If I hadn't been so blinded by my results and acted so eagerly, I'm afraid the other party wouldn't have made such an unequal treaty. 200 million to buy back all the copyrights?Do you think I don’t know the market?The film and television copyright of a novel was recently sold for only 20!
Even if you add in miscellaneous adaptation rights, it’s still less than 200 million!
This is simply stealing money!
"Damn it!"

Jiang Huosu clenched his fist and slammed the computer desktop hard, making a dull and loud noise.

Of course, these are not the point!

The point is the [-] average score proposed by the other party!
(╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

This f*cking copy of any book can't reach [-] subscriptions!
This is simply an impossible goal, isn't it?
"Ah! I'm so bored, I'm so bored!" Jiang Huo kept scratching her hair with both hands, and her long hair, which was originally soft and drooping, was messed up like a chicken coop by herself.

If you want to reach [-] average subscriptions, there is no way to plagiarize those popular novels on the Internet in your previous life. It is almost a dream to achieve this achievement with a small white text.

But those literary masterpieces that are well received are often not popular, and it is difficult to attract everyone's attention!What's more, these books are all works published by entities. If they are serialized on the Internet, it is unknown what abnormal situation will occur.

Jiang Huo recalled the best-selling books in his previous life in his mind. The number one "Bible" already existed. Say more?

Except for these two books that have sold more than one billion, there are not many remaining books that can be plagiarized.If you want to achieve the average score of [-], you must meet at least two points.

First, at least it must be popular all over the world. If it only satisfies the reading desire of its own people, it is too difficult to achieve this achievement.Second, at the very least, it must be able to turn over the pirated version. If even the pirated version cannot be turned over, then this score will definitely shrink a lot.

So, now in front of Jiang Huo, there are only two choices.

Thinking of this, Jiang Huo immediately opened the webpage and searched for two book titles on Du Niang in turn. The two books with memories in his mind did not exist in the world.After looking at the search results displayed on the screen, Jiang Huo felt confident. She tapped on the keyboard with both hands and replied to Penguin's message.

"How is it? What did the other party say?" Hearing the notification tone from the phone, the bald editor-in-chief immediately raised his head and looked at the editor-in-chief sitting opposite.

"Well, the other party has a new reply, but..." After reading the message from Jiang Huo, the editor-in-chief said, "It's just that the other party said that the next works will only authorize us to read electronically, and we will only be authorized to read electronically. They don’t even want to give us physical publication.”

Hearing the editor-in-chief's words, the bald editor-in-chief immediately laughed, and his smooth forehead reflected a bright light under the light.

"Such an arrogant author? I don't know who gave her the confidence? How dare you challenge us with a hyped-up work?" The bald editor-in-chief thought for a while, then nodded and said: "Well, let the people in the legal department draft it. In the contract, it’s best to come up with a clause similar to the gambling agreement. If the other party fails to achieve this result, all authorizations will belong to us, and she only has the right to share..."

Seeing that the boss made a formal speech, the editor-in-chief was not good at saying anything, so he immediately responded, turned and left the editor-in-chief's office, and hurriedly walked downstairs to the legal department.
