Chapter 354: Publishing completed, real points skyrocketing【Please subscribe】

In the yard.

Seeing that all seven classmates were eager to see the plot behind them, Zhang Sanfeng breathed a sigh of relief.

That is enough to show that "Journey to the West" from the previous life can still shine in this world.

The ups and downs of Sun Wukong's legendary experience are equally attractive.

That is proven by the prompts that keep popping up in the background of the system.

"We asked him, how was his story? If it were printed and sold in books, would there be a market for it?"

After pondering for a moment, Zhang Sanfeng looked at his seven classmates sincerely and asked for advice.

Just looking at the acceptance of seven classmates is not enough to prove the market, and it is necessary to expand the scope of readers to be sure.

If you want to publish it, you will have to find a bookstore.

With his qualifications that he has no achievements, I am afraid that he will have to spend money to publish it.

"Publish it? If the subsequent chapters I write can maintain the level of the previous three chapters, he is sure there will be a market for it!"

Hearing this, other students were silent, and a classmate named Zhuge Qingshan spoke.

"Wrong, Qingshan's family has a bookstore, he must be well-connected if he publishes wrongly."

Li Daniu suddenly realized and reminded Zhang Sanfeng not to miss that opportunity.

"That's right, that's right, he almost forgot that the Qingshan family's bookstore business is spread all over the Thirty-Sixth Acropolis of the Divine Capital."

Zhang Sanfeng's eyes lit up and he said: "The "Journey to the West" he conceived has about 800,000 words. The overall plot has been conceived, and the rest of it will definitely be at the same level as the first three chapters. Don't worry about that, Qingshan-san."

"In that case, he can help me arrange the publication. Even though we have been classmates for thirteen years, he has to be the first to say ugly things."

When Zhuge Qingshan saw Zhang San's plump and sincere face, and the fact that he usually kept his word and was not like the kind of person who cheated and cheated, Zhuge Qingshan made a decision in his heart.

"Qingshan, please tell me something."

Zhang Sanfeng slightly tilted his head.

"In business, Junbao and I will treat newcomers who have just debuted, and the royalties will be 5% of the newcomer's."

Zhuge Qingshan thought for a moment and said, "Hey, after all, we have been classmates for many years, and he took it upon himself to help me pay 6% of the royalties! What do I think?"

Royalties, also known as copyright royalties, are pecuniary benefits received by the original author or copyright holder of intellectual property from others who use their intellectual property.

In the Holy Dynasty of the Great Zhou Dynasty, due to the dominance of Confucianism, the works of great Confucians were often published, and the publishing industry was also very advanced, not inferior to Zhang Sanfeng's previous life.

Generally speaking, when a fledgling Confucian scholar publishes a book, he usually gets a 5% royalty.

In other words, if there are 10,000 copies printed for the first time, the pre-sale price of each volume is 100 copies, and the author can get 5% of it, which means that the author's fee income is 50,000 copies.

The more copies are printed, the more remuneration the author can receive. Even if a second or third edition is printed later, the author will still receive income.

As for famous Confucian scholars, the royalties they receive are different, usually around 6%-10%.

Of course, if you are not a great Confucian or a Confucian sage, the royalties you will receive will be even higher.

It is said that the book "New Notes on the University" written by the Prime Minister Li Shaochun and Li Xiang a few years ago received royalties as high as 28%. The first printing of 5 million copies was sold out in one month, and six more copies were sold later.

Millions of copies.

The laws and regulations set by the Holy Dynasty of the Great Zhou Dynasty to protect the interests of Confucian students were written into the "Laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty". If anyone dares to violate it, he will be punished with the loss of his family and property at the least, and the Yi clan at the worst.

Zhang Sanfeng received the memory of this life and naturally knew those regulations.

With that regulation, it is enough to protect the interests of authors, but on the other hand, it is more difficult for ordinary students to get published.

In terms of bookstores, the quality requirements of wrong manuscripts have also been improved accordingly, so that all cats and dogs can be published.

"Thank you Qingshan."

After thinking about it, Zhang Sanfeng rejected Zhuge Qingshan's kindness and said: "Bu Nao, why don't he take 5%, so as not to embarrass me."

Although his employer's family background is mediocre, he does not value money very much. What he lacks is fame and authenticity.

If not, he can successfully publish and promote "Journey to the West" so that more people can see it, even if he doesn't take a penny, he still wishes.

As long as there are enough real points, he can embody the treasures, characters, and even the entire world in the world of "Journey to the West".

Worldly money has a concubine for him

"It's okay. As the third young master of the Zhuge family, he has some rights."

Zhuge Qingshan waved his legs and said in a rich and generous manner: "Jun Bao, I won't refuse. He doesn't have any selfish motives."

"He is very optimistic about my development in the novel. That can be regarded as an early investment. If I become a novelist in the future, don't forget him as an investor."

Zhang Junbao was his classmate for thirteen years, and he knew Bu Nao better.

My family is ordinary, and my studies are ordinary. If there are no accidents, I'm afraid I won't have much potential in my life.

But when he switched to writing novels, his talent exploded, and his first book was a classic story-telling novel like "Journey to the West".

It is enough to show that Zhang Junbao did not have bad talent before, but he did not activate his talent and did not find the wrong industry.

As a classmate, do Zhutian Qingshan value Zhang Junbao? He can also make a fortune for his own bookstore, so why not?

"No, Junbao, Qingshan has good intentions, so I won't refuse."

Li Daniu didn't shut up until Zhang Sanfeng became silent and then persuaded him.

Zhuge Qingshan's family is extremely wealthy, so why would he care about a mere bit of royalties?

As for Zhang Sanfeng, whose family background is average, why should he ask for money that would cost him his legs?

"No, Junbao, my level is worth that price. He can wait to see what happens next."

"No, Jun Bao, don't refuse. Just make sure Dong Lai is ready and write the manuscript. He's waiting to read it."

Others also tried to persuade me.

"Well, if that's the case, then he won't refuse."

When Zhang Sanfeng saw this, he said to Zhuge Qingshan: "I can rest assured Qingshan. If nothing happens, all the manuscripts he writes will be published by my bookstore."

He could not refuse Zhuge Qingshan's kindness in return.

All other novels I write in the future will be published by Zhuge Qingshan’s family.

Of course, if something went wrong in the subsequent cooperation, it would be a mistake.

"Okay, it's settled then. I'll give him my manuscripts and he'll take them home for the bookstore manager to look at."

Zhuge Qingshan looked happy and said: "Let's make an appointment at another time and the two parties will sign a cooperation contract."

"Okay, I'll take it."

Zhang Sanfeng was also afraid that the wrong party would corrupt his manuscript. The laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty were not strict.

"Don't worry, Jun Bao. I'll wait for good news about him."

With a manuscript of more than 20,000 words in hand, Zhuge Qingshan left the academy.

"Okay, now that the publishing matter is settled, Junbao, should I start writing the next manuscript?"

After he left, Li Daniu rubbed his legs, looked at Zhang Sanfeng with bright eyes, and urged.

"That's wrong, Jun Bao, let me go and write the next manuscript."

"He can't wait to see the Monkey King become an immortal official in heaven."

"Jun Bao, I'll go write it quickly. I'll leave all the other miscellaneous things to him."

Other students urged me one after another and urged me to write the manuscript in person.

"Okay, then he will go back and write now."

Zhang Sanfeng nodded.

After returning to his study and filling an inkstone with ink, he started writing the remainder of the third chapter of "Journey to the West".

The first three chapters talk about 'the birth of a spiritual monkey', 'apprenticeship to learn skills' and 'forcibly breaking into the underworld', which unfold the world view and the origin and development of the protagonist for the readers.

At the beginning of the third chapter, it was written that the Jade Emperor of Heaven ordered the east boundary of Taihong Venus to recruit the protagonist Sun Wukong to be an official in heaven.

[Chapter 4: What’s the point of being awarded Bi Ma’s official title? His name states that Qi Tian’s will is not at peace]

Zhang Sanfeng started writing the title of the fourth chapter, and then wrote the plot of the east. The main character, Sun Wukong, was fooled into the sky by the red Venus, and was named Little Bi Mawen by the Jade Emperor. He was in charge of the imperial palace in heaven.

Horse Supervisor, raising horses for the Jade Emperor.

At first, he didn't know if this priest's position was powerful. When Wukong learned that this priest's position was the end of the gods, he became angry and rebelled against Tiandong, returned to Huaguo Mountain and proclaimed himself the Monkey King.

When the Jade Emperor learned of this, he ordered King Li Tianwang and his son Prince Nezha to capture Wukong, but Wukong defeated him.

Taihong Venus was once again ordered to recruit Wukong, and the Jade Emperor ordered immortal workers to build the Monkey King's Palace for Wukong to live in.

In the fifth chapter, the Jade Emperor ordered Wukong to take charge of the peach garden, but he stole all the peaches in the garden.
