Chapter 85: A Book for a Life!?
It's just that Huang Daguang and they were also forced to be ruthless.
Everyone entered the conference room on the second floor of the printing house, and before they could say a few words, he was introduced to "The Gift of Room No. 7".
This printing house is the property of the printing company that cooperated with Guangshuo Publishing House.
Now their printing branch in Busan has been printing "The Gift of Room No. 7" since last month.
But now that 2 million copies have been sold, the population of Taiji Kingdom is so large, it is estimated that another 2 million or 3 million copies will be sold to the sky.
And the demand of fans is not so urgent, so I can finally breathe a sigh of relief and not have to rotate so much for 24 hours.
As a result, Guangshuo Publishing House has also become the most important customer of this printing company, so when Shen Huan entrusted Zhang Zaiyun to convey that he wanted to print tens of thousands of promotional materials, as well as some promotional banners, etc., Huang Daguang could easily let the printing branch start here.
"Sir, according to the contract we signed before, the number of premieres is 5,000, the price is 8,000 won, the royalty is 3%, and the pre-tax royalty is converted into RMB, which is 7,500 yuan, have you already received this part of the money?" said Huang Daguang respectfully.
"Roger. Shen Huan bowed slightly.
"Before, because you've never written a novel and you're a foreigner, our pricing is very conservative, it's the lowest grade. Huang Daguang stood up, bowed guiltily, and said, "Now it seems that we are too ignorant to cause you to have such a big damage to your reputation!"
The people behind him also stood up and bowed and apologized with him.
Shen Huan was already a little accustomed to their frequent etiquette at this time, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, if I were you, it would be the same." ”
Books in Tai Chi are very expensive, usually a novel, the price will be around 12,000 won, that is, 70 yuan, if it is a well-known author, then it is not surprising that it is 150 yuan a book.
But it's not without cheapness.
For example, a foreigner like Chu Liuxiang, who came out of nowhere, actually wants to publish a novel in Taiji, which is generally impossible.
If it weren't for Zhang Zaiyun's little face, and Guangshuo Publishing House is a third-rate publishing house, seeing that "The Gift of Room No. 7" is quite touching and good-looking, this book would not have been published at all.
Even if they agreed to publish, they chose the most conservative conditions of 5,000 copies, 8,000 square yuan, and a minimum royalty of 3%.
Of course, if it weren't for so many concessions, Guangshuo Publishing would definitely not be willing to let this book be published so quickly.
As a result, no one thought that "The Gift of Room No. 7" would detonate the entire book market in Taiji, and it exploded to more than 2 million copies in more than a month, and it seems that there is no pressure at all on 3 million copies!
Now it was replaced by Huang Daguang, and they were under great pressure.
Do you look down on Mr. Chu Liuxiang? Do you think that there is a big gap between Mr. Chu and those well-known writers?—— and even half of the price of the most well-known writers' novels!
If this matter is pursued by Mr. Chu Liuxiang, the brand of their publishing house will be ruined.
A single charge of contempt for a well-known writer will make them never receive contributions from the writer.
There are more than 50,000 publishing houses in Taiji, can people still lack your publishing house to contribute?
Without the contributions of writers, what else can Guangshuo Press do?
It had to go out of business.
Finally, Guangshuo Publishing House has a momentum of rapid growth, and if it goes out of business because of this, Huang Daguang feels that he can jump the Pacific Ocean.
Therefore, before Mr. Chu is angry, he must first make a sincere apology, which must be very correct.
Hearing Shen Huan smile and say that he understood, Huang Daguang only felt that a big stone had fallen to the ground, and his heart was much happier.
With a smile on his face, Huang Daguang straightened up and continued: "Mr. Chu, the contract we signed is a progressive royalty method, according to the sales of more than 2 million copies of "The Gift of Room No. 7", your second royalty settlement, we will pay according to the 2 million copies that have been returned, after deducting taxes, it has reached 2.7 million yuan. Will you take cash or will we transfer it to your account in Huaguo?"
"How much?" Shen Huan thought there was something wrong with Zhang Zaiyun's translation.
But Zhang Zaiyun nodded directly at him, "Teacher Chu, 2 million copies of 2.7 million yuan, which is equivalent to the results of "The Gift of Room No. 7", which is already very little!
Shen Huan was stunned.
Boy!
A novel of about 200,000 words actually got 2.7 million in one go!?
One word is 13 yuan!
And that's not all, there are hundreds of thousands of copies sold in the future, which means that it will almost get about 5 million!?
Tai Chi Chinese people write books, but they really make money!
With such a book and such a 5 million, it is completely enough to buy a larger storefront and rely on rent for the rest of your life!!
At this time, Shen Huan didn't think about anything, if he changed to a publishing house, he would definitely get 8 million, or even 10 million.
It's all in vain.
A new Chinese writer who is nothing publishes a novel priced at more than 20,000 won, and the publisher will do so unless the publisher is crazy.
But if Shen Huan has the next book, it will definitely start at 20,000 won, and at least 500,000 copies will be sold - even if they are deceived, there are so many Tai Chi people who are willing.
"You just go to my card. Thinking of so much money, Shen Huan was in a very good mood, "President Huang, you have worked hard!"
"Where, where, it's our publishing house that has wronged you. Huang Daguang sat down with a smile, "It just so happens that Mr. Chu, you have come to Taiji, and I have another request, I hope you can help." ”
"Say it!" Shen Huan said angrily.
"In order to thank readers for their support, well-known authors have the habit of signing and giving away books, so we would like to take out 1,000 signed copies of "The Gift of Room No. 7" and give them a lottery ......."
"No problem. Shen Huan quickly replied, "Where is 1,000 copies enough? You bring 3,000 copies, I'll use some myself, and I'll give you 2,000 copies after signing them in a few days." ”
"Ah...... Thank you so much!"
All right.
Huang Daguang, who was full of surprise, led a group of his subordinates and bowed gratefully again.
Shen Huan was even happier than them.
Huang Daguang gave him an excellent inspiration at this time.
When "Love Letters" was screened, I had another secret weapon!
