House Dad’s Literary Life

Chapter 55 Talking about Conditions with Qi Reading (33)

What kind of theme will it be? Hu Da asked tentatively, Are modern people going back to the past? Or are there other golden fingers?

Yang Yi shook his head: None of them, the subject matter is very traditional, write a story about an ordinary regimental leader!

Hu Da was a little disappointed, but felt relieved.

Judging from the previous Soldier Assault, Yang Yi is more familiar with the writing method of traditional topics. If Yang Yi is asked to write online articles, he may not be able to write the same excellent story!

In addition, the reason why he attaches so much importance to Yang Yi is also because Yang Yi can write excellent military articles on traditional themes! There are a lot of military writers in the online genre, reading a lot of Chinese online, and there are many excellent ones!

But only Yang Yi can help Qiyue Chinese Network to win over more netizens from Jagged Network!

Hu Daban said with a compliment and a half serious smile: I believe in Yang Yi, your writing will definitely be wonderful!

Yang Yi smiled lightly, but he did not respond, but after a while, he brought the two cups of coffee prepared: Mantening, you have a good time, I just roasted a batch of green beans the day before yesterday. Brew and drink, the taste is the best!

In this world, of course, this kind of coffee bean is not called Mandheling, but Yang Yi still likes it. He went to the supplier and searched for a long time before he found two cans of Sumatra Mandheling in the old goods. It seems that this The people of the world did not regard it as a treasure, but let Yang Yi take it back at a low price.

When he was brought back the day before yesterday, Yang Yi rarely indulged his body, and dragged Xixi into a dance, as if he had picked up gold!

You must know that in the past life before Blue Mountain Coffee came out, Mandheling was the best coffee! But in this world, Blue Mountain Coffee is very famous, but Mandheling has become a low-end product that few people care about - because its beans are ugly!

However, Yang Yi knows that the more ugly the Sumatra Mandheling coffee beans, the better, mellow and smoother the taste is!

However, it seems that Yang Yi used Mandheling to entertain these two, which is a bit reckless!

It's a bit bitter! Qiangzi took a sip, frowned and said, Can I add some sugar?

Yang Yi silently handed the sugar bowl over.

Next to Hu Da also looked at it eagerly, and he said, Give it to me after adding it, I also want a little bit.

Yang Yi's heart was bleeding, and he remembered the conversation just now.

Do you usually drink coffee?

Drink, we usually drink it at work.

That's why Yang Yi wanted to take out Mandheling to share with them...

Mad, if I knew it earlier, I would ask one more question: Do you usually drink instant coffee?

The answer is now obvious...

It was too late to regret it, so Yang Yi didn't take it to heart and continued to talk about the previous topic.

He was too lazy to go around with Hu Da, and asked directly: Haozi told me before that you want me to continue to publish the new book on Qiyuan. Then, what are the conditions you can give?

Hu Da was stunned, knowing that it was not easy to do!

Most of the authors above are otaku. When negotiating contracts with websites, they generally do not know how to strive for better benefits for themselves.

Of course, Qiyue also has its own strength and stubbornness to say no to the author who makes the request.

Only a few long-established authors, who are familiar with some unspoken rules in the online literature world, and who can also come into contact with some of Qiyue's competitors, have the ability to make Qiyue regress.

But Yang Yi is a rookie writer. Before Hu Da came here, he felt that he would be very sure to convince Yang Yi without any effort!

However, it looks different now!

First of all, Yang Yi is not an otaku writer. He looks quite old and has such an old daughter. No matter what ideals Hu Da talks about, he can't fool Yang Yi.

Secondly, Yang Yi has his own career, and you can see from this coffee shop that this man should not be short of money! Then, if your conditions are too small, people will disdain them...

Even if Yang Yi didn't write novels, he probably wouldn't starve to death! So, why do people have to publish books on your website?

But Hu Da still didn't give up. He smiled: But Qiyue has the widest coverage of users, and the effect of the promotion we can give you is also the best! I believe that Qiangzi gave you the recommended promotion of Soldier Assault before, You should be able to feel it!

However, the readers who started to read don't seem to like my book very much. There was no emotional change on Yang Yi's face.

Well, their ideas will change! Hu Da said embarrassedly, The readers who like you are still the majority after all.

Many readers feel that I should go to Jagged Net, where I will have a better development. Yang Yi said.

Of course, Yang Yi wouldn't choose to go to Jagged Net, he didn't want to write military novels all his life. Military novels are just a stepping stone for him to cover up himself. In his previous life, Yang Yi didn't like military novels. Except for these two books, the others did not seem to meet Yang Yiwenqing's standards.

Yang Yi plans to transform after writing the next Bright Sword! Therefore, Qiyue, a highly comprehensive platform, is more suitable for his development.

In desperation, Hu Da had to talk to Yang Yi about the conditions. The two started talking about the sales of the works, and Qiangzi, who was not good at speaking, had no chance to interject.

Yang Yi wants to increase the sales share, but this is very difficult. Starting from the 55% share given by Hu Da, almost every percentage is compared.

It's really impossible to 70%! Our website has to pay 10% of the profits to the Copyright Association! Hu said in a loud voice, And we have to give you half-year awards and year-end awards. The website doesn't eat, right?

Online literature is an emerging industry, and copyright maintenance is much more difficult, so the commissions charged by copyright associations will also increase relatively.

In the end, Yang Yi accepted the plan of 60% of the sales profit and 70% of the reward shared by Hu Da (the amount of the reward will not be drawn by the Copyright Association), but Hu Da was also forced to accept Yang Yi a condition of.

All my works, including Soldier Assault, and all future works, the transfer of copyrights such as physical publishing, film and television copyright, etc., I have the right to veto, and the website's share of the copyright of these non-electronic publications is reduced To 5%! You can provide opinions or channels, but the decision is in my hands! Yang Yi said, This must be written in the contract!

Hu Da spent a lot of energy in the previous negotiation with Yang Yi. Now he thinks about it for a while, but does not see any loopholes. After all, there are really very few film and television adaptations of online novels. Otherwise, they The previous profit share will not be so low, and the 5% profit proposed by Yang Yi is not unacceptable.

In terms of physical publishing, this is a big deal, and many online novels are also selling very well.

But Yang Yi only had a few books, and Hu Da felt that it would not hurt to divide it into a small amount. And as long as the website still has the right to profit from it, what does it matter to which publishing house will it be published?

Besides, the main purpose of Hu Da's visit this time is to keep Yang Yi in Qixue, to use Yang Yi's works to compete with Jagged Net, and to compete for the readers of Jagged Net...

Now that these goals can be met, Hu Da felt that these seemingly insignificant copyright issues could be conceded.

Then I wish us a happy cooperation! Seeing Yang Yi signing the revised electronic contract, Hu Da smiled, and he stretched out his right hand to Yang Yi.

Yang Yi narrowed his eyes, held the opponent's hand tightly, and said calmly, Happy cooperation!

In fact, Yang Yi was happy in his heart. He felt that the two cups of Mandheling were not a loss, nor a loss at all!

On the creation side, thank you for the 588 reward for _Xu and fate tricking people! Thanks Leon for the 388 tip! Thank you Ni Ruobu Libu Abandoned for the three hundred reward of Yu Bisheng and strontium! Thank you for the snow shadow, simple is good, ←_←, dream of the glory, 〆 waiting to become empty hundred rewards! ! (づ￣ 3￣)づ
