The two publishing houses that are in contact with Sun Ya will naturally not ignore the grand event in the online literary world!
Scholarly Chinese is going to talk about Lao Bai’s new books "The Eight Parts of the Dragon" and "The Deer and the Cauldron". The more Sun Peng is tossing about it, the more he will pay attention to it. There are both joys and worries. The good news is that in the future, the sales volume of physical books will mainly depend on
How influential is the Internet? After all this trouble, there is definitely no need to worry; what is worrying is that Sun Peng's reputation has increased a lot now, and the contract matter is even more difficult to negotiate.
In addition to the fragrance of books, the same goes for sunflowers.
Although Sun Peng wanted to publish a children's picture book with them, but now that his fame has skyrocketed, he is still worried that no publishing house is willing to publish it? Even if Sunflower is confident that it will stand out among the children's book publishing houses in Beijing, they don't dare to rely on it.
Then……
The shrewd Sun Ya changed her attitude in a timely manner and put on a posture of "my brother is so awesome, he can go to talk to a more awesome publishing house." Naturally, the two publishing houses panicked: This guy
His popularity is soaring like a rocket right now, so what if he lets go?
So Sun Ya took a taxi to the old house, drove a new car...oh, and went home with the car purchase contract in hand.
Having just made more than one million, Sun Peng was satisfied for a while.
Since he spent all his money on DreamWorks in the past two months, this is the first time that Sun Peng has spent a lot of money, and his second sister lent him a temporary loan. The biggest expense on weekdays is car maintenance or repairs.
I went out to have a meal with Zheng Jia, so after seeing a large amount of money missing from his account for the first time in a long time, Sun Peng felt a little relieved inexplicably, even if it was not for himself.
Gee, this is the motivation to make money!
In fact, Sun Peng himself doesn't know the use of making so much money. Although he has never been a rich man in his life, he has no special pursuit of money. He is very happy living in a 200-square-meter courtyard.
, he didn’t think there was anything wrong with driving a car worth 200,000 yuan. But when it came to a critical moment, he still thought about how to add more money to his account. Adding more money would be a good idea.
So the second sister won the negotiation with the two publishing houses, and Sun Peng was very happy.
As soon as his heart felt clear, he felt hungry. Sun Peng looked at the time, called his girlfriend and wanted to make an appointment for dinner, but she happened to be on duty. He called his sister-in-law and wanted to go home to have a meal, but she happened to be working overtime. In desperation, he
I could only go home a little lonely, then hammered a piece of garlic, cooked a bowl of noodles, and cooked two eggs.
Open a bottle of beer and take a few sips.
Originally I just wanted to have a bottle to moisten my throat, but it turned out that the weather was really too hot. After a few minutes, I drank one bottle and still felt thirsty. The alcoholic factor in Sun Peng's previous life suddenly broke out, and then he had the second bottle and the third bottle.
And the fourth bottle…
When Sun Peng opened the fifth bottle, he was high.
In fact, it's no wonder that Sun Peng overestimates himself. In fact, he hasn't had a few drinks since he came here. He forgot that the ability to drink is mainly determined by talent. So Sun Peng originally thought that he could still drink ten or eight bottles, and the most he could do was run to the toilet frequently.
That's all, I didn't expect that my body bones have now changed from two hundred and one to one hundred and two, and those few taels of flesh can't support so much ethanol.
So he had just opened the fifth bottle and he was completely high.
Han Feng, who was so stubborn, called again and shouted excitedly: "Bai Da, have you gone backstage to see it? Today, the collection has increased by 20,000... Ouch, this speed is incredible!
And I just checked on the Internet, it seems that King Luo Chengluo is shaking in the United States, and it seems that he has entered the top twenty of that list, and the next step is definitely blah blah, blah blah..."
"Oh, it's Han Da!"
Hearing the chirping sound on the phone, Sun Peng, who was feeling dizzy at the moment, still recognized the other party's identity.
Boy, you came just in time!
All aspects of life are revealed through drinking.
Some people fall asleep after drinking too much, quietly without saying a word; some people are very excited after drinking too much, jumping up and down laughing non-stop; some people are depressed after drinking too much, and shed tears at every turn; and some people like to drink too much.
Just talking nonsense, as long as you don't fall down completely, you will keep talking endlessly.
Sun Peng is the last type, the kind who likes to talk when he drinks too much, but there is no one around him who makes him feel uncomfortable all the time.
Just then Han Feng knocked on the door.
It’s you!
Pulling himself together, Sun Peng started to spray... Oh no, he started to say: "Han Da, you came just in time. I am not telling you that your scholarly Chinese website is too stingy!"
"Ah? What do you mean? People who signed the fourth-level contract say we are stingy?"
Han Feng was confused for a moment and subconsciously looked at the screen of his mobile phone... He made the right call!
Before Han Feng could ask back, Sun Peng, who had a bad drink, started spraying like a machine gun...
For more than ten minutes in a row, he spouted out countless words.
If we summarize Sun Peng's words in a little detail, it would be - look at what Renshi Shuxiang Publishing House and Sunflower Publishing House did? They directly raised the royalties to the highest level! What does that mean? It means that my brothers are even better now.
Can you do it if I force you to do it? My brother is now in charge of the flow of Shuxiang, can you do it? Now Tianlong and The Deer and the Cauldron are still a little bit at a loss in the fourth-level contract, can you do it? We should talk about the fifth-level contract in the next book, do you do it?
No?
If I could sum up Sun Peng in one sentence, it would be - he is no longer satisfied with the position of the Supreme God, and hopes that this author's pyramid will have a sharper spire.
If I could sum up Sun Peng in four words, it would be - he has expanded!
Han Feng's eyes were straightened and his mouth was dumbfounded by this series of unspeakable things. He couldn't help but look at the number on the screen again to see if he had dialed the wrong person.
It wasn't until he had finished talking that Sun Peng said goodbye and hung up the phone.
Go to bed and sleep!
Han Feng, who was left on the other end of the phone, looked confused. Listening to the busy tone in his ear, he still doesn't know what happened...
…
The next day, the regular meeting of Shuxiang Chinese Network.
"Simply put, this is a win-win marketing!"
In the large conference room, a polite middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses said loudly: "But it is a pity that this marketing is not hosted by our Shuxiang Chinese Network, and we don't even have the ability to copy it! In fact, of course,
, I think other than this old white guy, there shouldn’t be a second author who can successfully copy it.”
"hehe……"
As soon as the gold-rimmed glasses finished speaking, a burst of good-natured laughter sounded in the conference room.
We are all amateurs, so we naturally know that even if we have one good song, it is impossible to attract a superstar like Ma Boyuan, unless someone can do six good songs at once like Lao Bai, and before that, he can sell two
A good song is all it takes for a heavenly king!
After getting a little quieter, a thirty-year-old short-haired woman smiled and said: "Lao Bai's collection of books should have exceeded two million, right? Gee, this achievement is quite remarkable! From this point of view,
The treatment we gave this old white fourth-level author before was not excessive!"
"Haha, is this too much? I'm afraid I won't even be a Level 4 author next time!"
The middle-aged man pushed his eyes and said with a smile: "According to our editor's understanding, this Mr. Sun...that is, Lao Bai still seems not very satisfied with the 70% share. He has mentioned it to the editor in the past two days.
It’s about the fifth-level contract! So we estimate that he will formally propose it in the next book.”
"Level 5? Impossible! Shuxiang has never had a level 5 contract!"
After listening to the gold-rimmed glasses, the short-haired woman curled her lips in disdain.
Shuxiang Chinese, which has a big family and a big business, is no longer a business more than ten years ago. If an ordinary author is poached by a rival, it is like being poached. Now it has four supreme gods, more than 20 great gods, small and medium-sized
God has no plans. Without who is missing, the earth will not turn around?
Regarding the attitude towards women with short hair, there was a chorus of agreement.
"hehe."
He chuckled lightly, but the gold-rimmed glasses did not argue with them.
impossible?
Didn’t the publisher also say that a royalty of fifteen points is impossible?
As a result, it has only been a few days since the two new books were released. The publishing house hastily finalized a publishing contract with Sun Peng - a royalty of 15 points, and the contract period is still eight years!
Some of these people are really used to being adults.
So there is no point in arguing about this kind of thing now. When people actually bring it up and talk to you with millions of readers, you will naturally understand that nothing is impossible in this world.
…
…
"Let me just say, nothing is impossible!"
Shaking the publishing contract in her hand, Sun Ya said with a proud smile: "We negotiated it yesterday morning and sent me the electronic version of the contract today! However, the contract period is still the eight years you requested, but the royalties I renewed yesterday
I asked you for an o'clock, and it's now thirteen o'clock! Hehe, if you hadn't made such a fuss by releasing a new book, Sunflower Press would probably still be there at twelve o'clock for ten years!"
After buying a new car, Sun Ya's enthusiasm as an agent was as strong as a chicken's blood.
"Uh... why is it thirteen o'clock again?"
Seeing the proud second sister, Sun Peng was completely confused!
This is not as good as twelve o'clock!
However, this is not the time to dampen the enthusiasm of the agent. Sun Peng could only laugh and said: "Yes, second sister, you have the ability! By the way, how many sets are the first printings?"
"Twenty-five thousand sets!"
When talking about the print run, Sun Ya's eyes immediately started to shine: "The publishing house feels that you are gaining momentum now, so it temporarily decided to print 25,000 sets for the first time. And because they are all printed on coated paper, the final price is
Three hundred and eighty yuan, and the royalties from the first printing are more than one million... Hehe, fifty or sixty thousand have been paid into the account at once, so happy!"
"Tsk, look at your potential!"
Although Sun Peng despised his second sister, he was secretly frightened.
Holy shit, books in this world are really expensive!
The whole set of picture books costs RMB 380, and one book costs nearly RMB 40. This price is really not cheap. Sun Peng remembered the original foreign picture books he told his niece in his previous life. Most of the same specifications were only 6.99 or 7.99 euros.
A few can be sold at a higher price.
Ignoring his younger brother's contempt, Sun Ya happily calculated the small accounts: "The first print of this set of picture books is still too small, so the profit is not much for the time being, but by the end of the year, if "The Eight Parts of the Dragon" and "The Deer and the Cauldron" are completed,
If so, Renren Shuxiang Publishing House will print 1.2 million copies at a time! By then my share will be at least one million, and I will be able to pay off your money in no time, and I will still have a lot of oil left.
money……"
Too lazy to talk to the second sister who was trapped in fantasy, Sun Peng took the contract and signed it.
It’s finally going to be published!
It has been two or three months since Yu Ruonan and the others got the finished manuscript. Although Zheng Jia never urged him, Sun Peng himself was a little anxious. But after all, he was not a saint, and he would not go to the orphanage just to get it early.
Children's books have sacrificed their own interests. Fortunately, now that the contract is signed, it is finally settled.
but……
After seeing off his second sister, Sun Peng fell into deep thought again: "Strange, I must have told Han Feng a lot of things on the phone last night, but what on earth were they? Why can't I remember them?"
