Chapter 12 Eye-popping conditions
The Paranormal World Magazine is a semi-monthly magazine, that is, it is published every half a month.
The editor-in-chief, Blue Bird, looked at the sales of this issue of the magazine, took off his myopia glasses in disbelief, and rubbed his eyes.
Northeast region, 80,000 copies.
North China, 70,000 copies.
East China, 100,000 copies.
......
The sales of these supernatural worlds are directly approaching 300,000 copies!
This achievement, I'm afraid it's a folk ghost story that is in the limelight now, and I can only look at the back of its neck!
A great god is a great god, even if he has been sealing the pen for so many years, but stepping into this industry again, it is still a ceiling-like existence.
When the cigarette ash pulled the world before, the price was two thousand words, and the blue bird felt high.
Because the world has not written for many years, loyal readers have long been lost, and the pen power has long since ceased to exist.
But I didn't expect that the world was still popular.
At this time, the first thing that the blue bird thought of was to raise the price of the world and keep the world!
Jade Bird knows that the world has become popular again, bringing huge sales to the magazine at the same time.
It will also attract the eyes of other supernatural magazines, and I believe that the editors of some magazines are ready to move and want to poach the world.
"Ash, this time thanks to you for inviting the world to publish in our magazine, the sales of this issue of our magazine have increased by 3.5 times compared with the previous issue, and this month, you have a reward of 3,000 yuan.
In addition, you tell the world that the price of his next article will be raised from 2,000 words to 2,000 words and 5,000 words!"
After listening, the cigarette ash suddenly felt his eyes light up: "Thank you editor-in-chief, I will definitely work hard, and I will quickly tell the world about this matter, so that he can prepare the next draft." ”
Some people rejoice and some people worry.
Folk ghost tale editorial department, inside the miasma.
Several editors frowned, looking at the sales of this issue.
Northeast region, 40,000 copies.
North China, 20,000 copies.
East China, 30,000 copies.
From the sales volume of 180,000 copies in the last issue to the 90,000 copies in this issue, the sales volume has dropped by half!
Everyone also understands in their hearts what is going on, because the great god world has reappeared and joined the supernatural world.
"Ask me how much the supernatural world gives to the world. ”
Wan Li, the editor-in-chief, said that each magazine has its own unique salary system, and the editor salary of folk ghost stories, in addition to the basic salary, also has the sales commission of the magazine of the month, so the sales of this issue of folk ghost stories have reached the bottom, which directly affects the salaries of the editors.
Every editor was very concerned about the sales of the magazine, and one editor immediately said: "It is said that the price of the supernatural world to the world is 2,000 words per 1,000, and due to the skyrocketing sales of this issue, it has been raised to 2,005 words per 1,000 words." ”
Two thousand words and five, this price is already very high, Wan Li thought for a moment, and said: "It's not a way to go on like this, find a way to dig up the world, we can give a price of three thousand words." ”
"Okay, I used to have some friendship with the world, so I contacted him to talk to him. ”
After the editor finished speaking, he took out his mobile phone and dialed the number of the world.
The phone was quickly connected, and the editor first reported to his home and chatted for a few words, and then the editor got straight to the point and said: "World, if you are willing to come to our folk ghost story, we can sign you for the price of 3,000." ”
Hearing this price, the world was thrilled, which was five hundred more than the price given by the supernatural world.
However, he still replied: "Thank you for your love, but I haven't started writing in the world for many years, and my pen power may still be a little insufficient.
Besides, I have been sealing the pen for many years, if I see the high price you give, I will jump ship to you, then I will definitely be looked down upon by many people, and there are only five hundred more words, so I don't need to toss so much. ”
"The world, the meaning of birds choosing good trees and perching should you understand, two thousand words and five thousand words and three thousand words, the difference is not a star and a half, you also know the strength of our folk ghost stories, as long as you come, we will definitely raise the strength of the whole station to support you, some places, we can do it, the supernatural world may not be able to do it. ”
"Hehe, forget it, I feel that the supernatural world is very good, and I don't want to change places for the time being. ”
After hanging up the phone, without waiting for the editor to speak, Wan Li said with a smile: "It's not that the world refuses to come, but the passing grade we gave hasn't made him feel impressed." ”
"Or, add a little more? three thousand two or three thousand five?"
Wan Li shook his head: "I'll go to the general manager to talk to him, I mean to give the world a little shares, let him become a shareholder of our magazine." ”
The editors who heard this were afraid, although the folk ghost story has not been listed, but it has developed very well in recent years, and it belongs to the leader in similar miscellaneous matters, with an estimated market value of nearly 100 million, even if it is one percent of the shares, there are almost one million.
Can the general manager agree?
The general manager is generally not in the editorial office, and after more than half an hour, the editor-in-chief arrives at the general manager's home.
The general manager of the folk ghost story is a middle-aged man in his forties, named Lin Chuanjian, who is said to have opened an online store in the past, mainly engaged in some high-imitation luxury goods, and made a lot of money.
Later, due to being reported, the online store was closed, and by chance I bought the entire folk ghost story.
Lin Chuanjian is very business-minded, after taking over the folk ghost stories, he spent a lot of money to dig up a lot of supernatural writers, coupled with the publicity in place, it took less than three months to bring a magazine on the verge of bankruptcy back to life, and in half a year, the magazine became the sales champion of supernatural magazines in China.
After listening to the editor-in-chief's words, Lin Chuanjian fell into deep thought, this world is really powerful, as soon as he made a move, the sales of the supernatural world increased by more than three times, and the direct consequence of this was that the sales of folk ghost stories plummeted.
After thinking about it, Lin Chuanjian took the opinion of the editor-in-chief, Wan Li, and if the world could come, he would give him five percent of the shares, and gave him a high price of four thousand per thousand words.
Not to mention how much five percent of the shares are worth, the price of four thousand words is already the ceiling price offered to the author by the magazine category.
With the promise of the general manager, the editor-in-chief Wan Li was overjoyed, and immediately called the world in person, and the world did not rush to agree, but said that this matter should be considered.
The editor-in-chief Wan Li knows that the world is already excited, and the next issue of folk ghost stories will definitely sell well.
His guess was right, the world was indeed moved, not only the price of 4,000 words, but also the eye-popping 5% of the shares.
He thought about it for a while and sent a text message to the tobacco in the supernatural world: "Recently, I have been feeling a little unwell and am going to go abroad for treatment, this mobile phone number is about to be shut down, and I have something to contact." ”
