The richest man starts from a street stall

Chapter 328 Are You Not Planning To Write A Book?
In this world, there are so many literary websites and novel apps, a total of 17 to [-], such as Zong/Horizontal, Jinjiang, [-]B, etc. In terms of apps, there are apps such as Zhangyue, Duokan, Zhuishu, Weidu, Qiandu, etc.

However, several literary websites under the TT Group accounted for more than half of the novel market.

Chen Shi's influence in Qihang alone is very important. His every move affects the overall situation of Qihang, and even concerns the rise and fall of Qihang.

If Chen Shi hadn't been there before, Qihang would still be the literary leader.

With Chen Shi, Qihang has reached a new level.

But if Chen Shi leaves Qihang to develop other websites or create his own novel platform, he will take away many readers of Qihang. For Qihang, it may be the beginning of decline.

Winning or losing does not matter.

The words of fantasy editor-in-chief Wushuang were so realistic that they hit the psychological barrier of several high-level executives and forced them to truly face this fact.

It's not that he didn't invite Chen Shi to become a shareholder and set sail?
The higher-ups mentioned it casually, but Chen Shi directly expressed that he was not interested.

In the previous life, Qihang Group's stock has been falling since its listing, and the main blow was the diversion from the video network platform. Even with Chen Shi now, it is very difficult to change the overall situation.

What's more, without the impact of piracy, the current market value of Qihang Group is extremely high, with a current valuation of more than 1000 billion.

If the proportion of shares is small, he has no right to speak; if the proportion of shares is large, the senior management and big boss of Qihang Group are definitely not willing, and Chen Shi can't afford that much cash.

The actual reason is that Chen Shi feels that there is no profit to be made in Qihang Group.Throwing so much money into it, and the stock is still falling, he is not stupid enough to make a loss-making business.The group is also short of funds, and there are many ways to make money.

Wu Hao, editor-in-chief of Qihang Male Channel, was silent for a while, then made up his mind and said: "Why don't we try to send Chen Shi a message and see if we can have a video chat. Everyone happens to be here, so it's not a problem that he always avoids it." .”

"I agree."

"Okay, I agree too. Then Wushuang should contact Chen Shi." Vice President Shan Yi thought for a while, and quickly made a decision.

Wushuang pouted, and still called Chen Shi.

After a while, the call was connected, and Chen Shi replied that there was no problem and asked them to wait for 10 minutes.

Ten minutes later, Chen Shi took the initiative to initiate a video conference.

A total of six people from the Qihang Group participated in the video conference. Chen Shi would not participate alone, but called Yang Hanwen from the cultural media company, the group's legal affairs manager, Fang Zhiyuan, who was familiar with business negotiations, and the secretary Xiao Zhuang and several others held the line.

After the video transmission, at Qihang's end, he saw Chen Shi's luxurious conference room, and there were still several people.

"Everyone, Mr. Wushuang, and Mr. Xiaomi, hello everyone. Let me introduce to you, this is Mr. Fang, the vice president of my group, Mr. Yang, the general manager of the cultural media company, and the manager of the group affairs department." Chen Shi When I met someone, I was taken aback when I saw the other party, and introduced them with a smile on my face.

"We've been really busy lately. Wushuang and Xiaomi have also talked about contract renewal, but we really don't have time to talk. I'm really sorry. We've just finished a busy period, and it's rare for everyone to sit down and talk."

Qihang's senior executives originally wanted to call Chen Shi "Jiangnan" or "Chen Shi" by his real name, but saw that the opponent's position was not smaller than his own, and their titles were almost the same.

They know something about Chen Shi's company, Shenshi Group, and know that its ability to attract money is terrifying, with a net profit of tens of billions a year. Although Qihang Group has a high market value, its net profit last year did not reach 10 billion yuan.

If Shenshi Group is really valued, it is also a group of hundreds of billions.

A few of them are high-level employees, but in the final analysis, they are still high-level wage earners, while Chen Shi is the chairman of a large group, and their status cannot be compared.

All of a sudden, they realized their status with Chen Shi very clearly.

The editor-in-chief Wu Hao laughed and said, "President Chen, you are welcome, you are a busy person. Maybe writing books is just a hobby for you."

"Mr. Wu, you're welcome. Let's get straight to the topic."

Editor-in-chief Wushuang and editor Xiaomi sent him many messages asking about renewal, but Chen Shi responded perfunctorily.

When the book was almost finished, Chen Shi also had to face the reason why Qihang did not renew his contract. At present, his loyal fans have reached 280 million, and the next novel is estimated to be written for a year. After finishing the book, the number of loyal fans It is estimated to reach 1000 million.

There are tens of millions of diehard fans, and most of them are readers of Qihang Group.

After reaching the tens of millions level, the increase in die-hard fans will be limited by the platform. Because the platform has tens of millions of members, it is impossible for all readers of Qihang to be die-hard fans of Chen Shi. This is unreasonable.

Even if Qihang's new members increase rapidly due to Chen Shi's existence, there is an upper limit.

If Chen Shi only publishes books at Qihang, after reaching tens of millions of diehard fans, Chen Shi may need a net profit of 6000 yuan or more to add a diehard fan, but it only needs 5000 yuan before, so this is Chen Shi. Stone is unwilling.

The second reason is that with Qihang’s contract renewal, the ownership of the copyright of the novel is a problem, which he is unwilling to let go.

Platinum contract is divided into 20% and [-]%. With so many diehard fans, the royalties of mortals will definitely reach a terrifying level in the next year, maybe [-] billion, and the profit distributed will be hundreds of millions.

Chen Shi would be more than happy if he could spend one or two hundred million yuan to take back all the copyrights.But this is just thinking about it. It is estimated that Qihang will not agree, and the price of copyright must be very high.

"We attach great importance to Mr. Chen and hope to renew the contract."

"Thank you very much for Qihang's platform, but when it comes to practical topics, I don't know what conditions Qihang will renew the contract?" Chen Shi now takes the initiative, and he doesn't want to repeat some words.

After all, Qihang is his fortune, and he is grateful for this platform from the bottom of his heart, but Chen Shi has paid enough in return, far exceeding the resources given by the platform.

"Eighty-two split, use all platform resources to promote your novel."

Chen Shiwei sighed, still feeling a little disappointed with such an old-fashioned treatment: "Actually, the promotion of platform resources is better than nothing for me. I don't mind the [-]% of rewards and electronic manuscript fees. What about copyright?"

For Chen Shi, it doesn't matter whether he is recommended or not. With so many diehard fans, once a book is released, it will be a super hot book, and it will occupy all kinds of lists.

Chen Shi didn't expect to get a [-]% share, and an [-]% share is not bad, so he always gave the platform some sweetness.

But in addition to electronic royalties, copyright sharing is a big issue.

If a general master asked this question, Qihang must be responsible for the operation, and how much it sells will be divided according to the agreement.

Vice President Shan Yi was silent for a long time. This question was a bit troublesome: "Let's share the same [-]-[-] share. What do you think? TT Group has rich resources and can cooperate and develop together."

Chen Shi directly shook his head to express his dissatisfaction, and heaved a long sigh: "Forget it, how about this, after I finish writing Dou Po, the agreement should also be completed, and this time the cooperation has also expired, so I will quit the sailing."

Chen Shi's words shocked the people on the other end of the video.

If Chen Shi no longer writes books, it will be a pity for tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of readers.

Chen Shi's withdrawal from Qihang was a huge loss for Qihang, and he would lose hundreds of millions of dollars a year.

However, he said that he would quit Qisa, but did not say that he would not continue to write books. Could it be that he joined other platforms or created a new platform?
All of a sudden, Qihang's senior executives and editor-in-chief Wushuang panicked. If Chen Shi joined other platforms or created his own platform, it would be a disaster for Qihang.

The editor-in-chief asked in surprise: "You don't plan to write a book anymore? If the cooperation method is not satisfactory, we can discuss it slowly."
