The rise of the country from the entertainment industry

Chapter 147 "The Observer" Published (Seek Full Order, Please Customize)
Xinyu originally planned to wait for the turmoil of the group arena in November to pass completely before promoting Zhou Wentian and Han Shuo's new album.

result……

What a fart!Wait any longer, the house will be stolen! !

If it was in the past, Han Shuo and Zhou Wentian would stare at Jiang Li and fight, those Xinyu managements would always feel a little embarrassed.

After all, the "Tianwang Combination" is two against one, no matter the outcome, outsiders will see Xinyu's jokes.

But seeing Yanhuang's flamboyant manipulation...

Look at those sand sculpture fans who are making troubles, as well as their own fans who have rebelled...

Those who said that Yanhuang was hitting a stone with an egg and overreaching his own strength had their old faces flushed from the beating.

Zhou Wentian was even arranged by the company as a special guest to participate in two outdoor reality shows to promote the new album.

Many people thought that Jiang Li would be busy going around during this time.

But in fact, he is completely a hands-off shopkeeper, and he is very idle now.

You just need to be honest and step-by-step to shoot MVs, record songs, and so on.

Lun Zhou's "Joy" has a strong purpose, so there is not enough unity.

And Jiang Li's own first album, the unity is a bit high.

For this album, he is very confident.

But let's not mention these for the time being, Jiang Li received a call from Qidian's editorial department after a long absence this day.

"Hey, the epitaph is big, I'm the editor of QQ."

Hearing the familiar voice of the editor in charge, Jiang Li instinctively said, "Huh? What's the matter? This time I delivered the manuscript on time!"

"..."

The other end of the phone was speechless.

I'm looking for you as a co-author, and there's nothing else to do except to press the manuscript, right?

"Ahem, I was joking. This call is to congratulate you. According to the results of "Observer", after the review and decision of the editor-in-chief, "Observer" has won the opportunity to publish. I will send you the specific contract by email later."

Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay."

Although I have tried my best to write "The Observer" well, and the statistics are not bad, but it is all because of the support of fans.

And to be honest, the hard science fiction in China is really bad, and several hard science fiction novels that Qidian had great expectations have all been cut in half.

Even in consideration of interests, Qidian may choose to abandon the entity in order to avoid risks.

Until the last moment, he was not [-]% sure that Qidian would publish it physically.

This call really reassured him a lot.

Now it seems that the editor-in-chief of Qidian still has a vision, and it is estimated that they also want to open up the science fiction market.

After hanging up the phone, the editor-in-charge QQ soon sent a contract.

The content of the contract stated that the initial publication volume of "The Observer" was 15 copies, with a price tag of 25 yuan per copy and [-]% royalties.

The so-called royalties are not the kind of conventional taxes, but the copyright royalties exercised by publishing companies, which are the monetary benefits collected by the original creators or copyright holders of intellectual property rights from other people who use their intellectual property rights.

Jiang Li frowned when he saw the price.

This price is completely incomparable with my previous fantasy and fairy tale works.

It is a relatively standard price for newcomers.

Most newcomers publish books for the first time, and the publisher will basically buy out the copyright, and there will be no payment for subsequent reprints. The situation will be better when the newcomers accumulate a certain amount of capital.

Of course, if the newcomer has a connection with a publishing house, he can naturally get special treatment.

But he is not a newcomer, he is the "epitaph", the pioneer of the Xianxia genre...

Well, this time it's not a fairy tale, nor a fantasy, but a science fiction that almost no one cares about...

Jiang Li sighed.

If Qi Dian wants to buy out "Observer", then he will naturally not tolerate it.

"The Observer" is the key to opening the door of film and television, and even more so, the key to opening the door of international science fiction.

Now they are just asking for more money, and it doesn't count as touching his bottom line.

But it is impossible to let them go so simply.

business.

It's not just pulling each other.

This kind of price for a newcomer is too ugly, whoever agrees is a fool!
So Jiang Li chose to continue bargaining, and pretended to be dissatisfied and asked why there was so much difference from the previous books.

Then the lion opened his mouth directly, asking for a commission of 40.00% five.

The editor-in-charge obviously knew that the price was inappropriate, so he said in embarrassment that he would discuss it with the editor-in-chief.

He was not surprised when the news reached the editor-in-chief.

If the epitaph agreed to these conditions, then they must have earned blood.

If you don't agree, the big deal is to give up some profits.

No matter what, you can't push him too hard. If you push him too hard, you won't be able to steal the chicken.

This "Observer", if you can buy it out, then buy it out, if you can't, then you can't let him run away.

This is a dead command from above.

The editor-in-chief answered the phone, trying to explain the pros and cons in a difficult way, both inside and outside: Oh, it's hard for us too, please be considerate!

Jiang Li also had a gentle tone, understanding each mouthful, but he would not give an inch when it came to the price.

The two smiled and pulled each other cheerfully, but in their hearts they were scolding each other, old fox, little fox.

Finally, looking at the risks borne by Qidian, the negotiated commission is 30.00%.

The initial publication volume is 30 copies, and the price is still 25 yuan per copy.

In fact, Jiang Li didn't care how many volumes were published in the early stage.

Anyway, if it's not enough to sell in the end, it's them who are anxious.

After reading the contract, Jiang Li agreed to sign it.

However, when the editor-in-chief was about to chat with Epitaph for a few more words, he was shocked to find that the other party had already gone offline!

Editor-in-Chief: "..."

In this industry, authors generally lick the editor in charge, and most of them only dare to lock themselves in a small black room tremblingly and write obediently when faced with a reminder from the editor in charge.

Even some great gods, in order to get special care from the editor-in-chief, will keep their posture very low.

But this epitaph was different from the beginning.

It can even be said that Qi Dian can develop to the present level, all thanks to him.

If this old thief hadn't been cooing all the time, he might have become a writer supported by Qi Dian long ago.

And now, obviously listening to the voice, he is not very old, but he doesn't stick to hard and soft, and is very clever.

After finally negotiating, he still wanted to have a good conversation with Epitaph.

After all, he is very optimistic about this talented writer, and originally planned to chat with him about the market and the future direction of novel creation, and it would be best if he could write another fairy tale...

But at this moment, he looked at the black head on the opposite side.

He choked back the words abruptly.

This epitaph... really has a personality!
"Editor-in-chief?" The editor-in-charge, QQ, shrank his head and looked at the weird smile on his face.

The editor-in-chief glanced at him with pity.

I really feel sorry for this unlucky boy, who has to deal with that thorn.
