Self-cultivation of entertainment bigwigs

Chapter 384 Simplified

Before the second batch of physical books of "Emperor Domination" were put on the shelves, calls from major publishing houses reached Qihang's copyright department.

After some simple communication, Hua Ya, the editor of the copyright department, contacted Zhao Qian and conveyed to him the conditions of each publishing house.

After Zhao Qian listened to it, he replied: "Sister Hua Ya, please help me to reply to them in a unified way, and say that the minimum royalty is 15%, if it is lower than this figure, there is no need to talk about it, and the first print should be at least [-] copies.

If you agree, we can continue talking.Of course, it's better if someone quits. "

He commissioned a lawyer to evaluate the value of intellectual property rights before, and it just happened to be useful now.

They didn't sit on the ground to raise the price, so they sold it according to the previous price. Whoever wants it will bid, and whoever bids the most will cooperate with whoever bids.

Hua Ya chuckled: "I'll help you reply to them, but I won't guarantee it."

Qihang only serves as a middleman to help convey opinions, and the final decision is made by the author himself and the publisher.Now that Zhao Qian has made a request, it depends on whether the publishing house agrees or not.

But Hua Ya thinks that most of them agree.

Although a 15% royalty is high, it is not unacceptable to the publisher. Authors of traditional bestsellers even have a 20% royalty.

The first printing of [-] copies seems to be a lot, but compared to "Emperor", it is not a problem at all.

The physical book of "Emperor Domination" can sell at least 50 copies, and even if the other few books are close, they can always sell [-] copies, right?
One hundred thousand copies can also make a lot of money.

"They will agree, and my asking price is not high." Zhao Qian said with a smile.

Now it's a seller's market, and the copyrights in my hands are not worried about selling, and all the major publishing houses are begging to buy his copyrights.That being the case, you might as well ask for a higher price, and would rather wait for the price to sell than sell the copyright at a low price.

For capitalists, only interests are real, and everything else is false.

A novel that can sell hundreds of thousands of copies, Zhao Qian can't believe that those guys are not tempted.

"Okay, let's do this for now. I'll tell you when I get a reply." Hua Ya said.

So at the same time.

"The editor-in-chief is not working. I heard that several other publishing houses have already called Qihang headquarters, planning to buy the simplified Chinese copyright and comic copyright of the other works of the half-paper love letter."

The editor-in-chief of Shonan People's Publishing House received a call from the staff below, and his face changed immediately: "What? These bastards who have no profit and can't afford it... I see..."

Although Shonan People's Publishing House has cooperated with Qihang for a long time, it is not only his publishing house that cooperates with Qihang, but also several competitors.

Seeing that he ate meat now, the other companies would definitely have ideas, but they didn't expect them to take action so quickly.

No, you can't let them take the lead!

The editor-in-chief put down the phone and cursed secretly, then hurriedly called Qihang, praying that the half-paper love letter would not sell the copyrights of other works so quickly.

……

Sure enough, as Zhao Qian expected, after he quoted a 15% royalty, two big publishing houses were used to bullying customers, said they could not accept it, and quit automatically.

The other four seemed to have negotiated privately, and divided the simplified copyrights of Zhao Qian's remaining four novels, with prices ranging from 15% to 16%.

The comic copyrights of "Buddha is the Tao" and "Very Pure and Very Ambiguous" were handed over to Xiangnan People's Publishing House and Huacheng People's Publishing House respectively at a royalty price of 16%.

The biggest winner this time is undoubtedly Zhao Qian, and this price is definitely the top in the industry.

Although you won't get much copyright fees in a short period of time, it is definitely a wise choice in the long run!

The physical royalties of these works will bring Zhao Qian a large amount of income in the next few years. Just refer to Tang San, there are tens of millions of physical royalties every year.

Hua Ya was also secretly speechless.

I have been working in the industry for many years, and I have never seen any author whose copyright is sold at a high price.

Those publishing houses were also guilty of cheapness. They didn't even pay back such a high price, so they agreed directly, and they looked like they were happy to earn it.

It made Hua Ya wonder if their brains were out of their minds.

This guy really can't be treated with common sense.

According to this speed, surpassing Tang San, probably sooner or later.

Zhao Qian did have such an idea in his heart.

Tang San is undoubtedly the No. 1 physical publisher in Qihang Male Channel, or in other words, the entire online literary world. 15 years of accumulation and 15 years of hard work are not so easy to shake.

The key is that Zhao Qian started too late. Now that the golden age of physical books has passed, if he tries to catch up, the difficulty will increase by many levels.

But it is the difficulty that makes it challenging.

To Zhao Qian, Tang San is a senior, a role model, and an opponent he hopes to surpass!No matter which aspect is good!

Surpassing Tang San, he believed that he would definitely be able to!
Tang San was very well-informed and soon learned that Zhao Qian had collectively sold the simplified Chinese and comic copyrights of many works. He smiled and said, "Hey, hey, the young people nowadays are really amazing. If I give them to them again, In two or three years, maybe he can really surpass me."

Isn't that right, this guy's path is much smoother than his back then, it's really enviable.

Immediately, a long-lost pride surged up.

I, Tang San, am not a vegetarian either!Since you want to fight, let's have a good fight!

"Brothers and sisters of the Tang Sect, the time has come to need you!"

Facing the menacing Zhao Qian, he, Tang San, the number one evergreen tree in the Internet literature world, is not afraid at all!

……

After waiting for three full days, the second batch of "Emperor Domination" physical books was released again.

Shonan People's Publishing House is so regretful, how much money will it lose in these three days?
But it's not completely useless. After these three days of fermentation, the word-of-mouth of the "Emperor Domination" physical book continues to rise.

The second batch of physical books was put on the shelves. Although the momentum was weaker than the first batch, more than half of them were sold quickly. I believe that by the end of the month, it will not be a problem to sell all 30 copies.

This is already the best achievement achieved by the domestic entity online novel market in recent years.

Even for Tang San, new books may not be able to sell so much, his data is accumulated over the years.

For Zhao Qian's impressive achievements in physical books, the friends in the group are not to mention envious.

An author @ Zhao Qian said: "The love letter boss will show up quickly and give an accurate answer. How many physical copies of "Emperor" have been sold?"

Zhao Qian happened to be free, so when he saw it, he replied, "I don't know. It is conservatively estimated that 50 copies should be sold by the end of the month. There may be more printings later, but not too many."

This is not a commercial secret, but it is difficult for ordinary people to find out, so it is better to tell everyone openly.

Seemingly simple words have a huge impact on everyone.

"Kneel to the boss!"

"Kneel to the boss who sold 50 copies!"

"Kneel down for the 50 copies of love letters that will be printed in the future!"

"All high-quality products are fake. I just want to ask, is the boss still short of a younger brother?"

"..."
