Chapter 242: Future IP is the Most Valuable (Second More Subscription)
At nine o'clock the next morning, a coffee shop on the corner.
In the private seat on the second floor, when Qin Luo came in, there was already a woman about 40 years old inside, who was the editor-in-chief Jiang of Huashu Publishing House.
Seeing Qin Luo coming in, Editor-in-Chief Jiang stood up and stretched out his hand and said, "Qin Luo, I saw that you are a real person, a little more handsome than in the photo." ”
"Isn't it just a little handsome?" Qin Luo shook hands with Editor-in-Chief Jiang and asked with a smile.
"Hehe, it's really better to be famous than to meet, you are quite humorous. Editor-in-Chief Jiang smiled and sat back in his seat and motioned for Qin Luo to sit as well.
After Qin Luo sat down, a waitress came in and asked what he ordered.
However, when the waitress saw Qin Luo, she immediately looked excited, "Ah, Qin Luo, are you Qin Luo?!!"
Qin Luo was stunned for a moment, then nodded at the waitress, and deliberately put his fingers on his lips to make an admonition, "Shh, I'm here quietly, don't make a big noise." ”
The waitress also quickly came back to her senses, she was at work, not at the star-chasing scene, if the manager on duty knew, she would definitely have to deduct her salary.
"Well, you're welcome. The waitress restrained her excitement and returned to her smiling face, "What do you want?"
"A cappuccino, thank you. Qin Luo said and looked at Editor-in-Chief Jiang.
"Bring me a caramel latte. Editor-in-chief Jiang was not polite.
"Okay, you two, please wait a minute. The waitress immediately turned around and walked out.
"Sure enough, you're so popular right now, even the waitress at a random coffee shop is your fan. Editor-in-chief Jiang looked at Qin Luo and said with a smile.
"I can't be considered a fan, maybe I just suddenly saw me and subconsciously exclaimed. Qin Luo said, tilting his head and muttering in a low voice, "You don't even ask me to sign it." ”
"Hehe, people are working. After a short period of contact, Editor-in-Chief Jiang felt that Qin Luo was still very easy to get along with.
While waiting for coffee, the two chatted casually, and it didn't take long for the waitress to come over with coffee.
"Your caramel latte. The waitress first put Jiang Editor-in-Chief on the table in front of her, then put the remaining cup in front of Qin Luo, then took out a napkin and a signature pen from under the tray, handed it to Qin Luo and whispered, "I'm your fan, can you sign for me?"
Qin Luo was stunned for a moment, and then grinned happily, "No problem, don't say one, it's no problem to sign ten or a hundred." ”
The waitress's eyes lit up, and she took out a stack of napkins from the tray as if by magic, and said to Qin Luo, who looked confused, "Then I'm bothering you, sign ten more." ”
Qin Luo: "......" I just said it so casually, are you still serious?"
"Are you going to resell my signature?" Qin Luo asked with a surprised expression as he looked at a stack of napkins.
"No, these ten are what the other little sisters asked me for. The waitress explained.
If there's anything else to say about this, then sign it.
After signing eleven in a row, the waitress went out with a stack of napkins and was satisfied.
Editor-in-Chief Jiang took a sip of coffee, looked at Qin Luo with a smile on his face, and said, "Can you feel your fiery popularity now?"
"Hehe, it's all about everyone's love. Qin Luo said modestly.
After that, let's get to the point, after all, both of them are busy, and they didn't really come here for coffee.
"I read "Breaking the Sky", and it was very well written, although I had not been in contact with online literature before, but the electronic sales on the first day of listing reached 2.24 million, which is enough to prove that it is very marketable. However, I think that just taking the electronic sales route is far from being able to realize the full potential of "Breaking the Sky", and the physical publishing should also be very popular. I briefly mentioned to you on the phone before that our Huashu Publishing House wants to buy the physical publishing rights of "Breaking the Sky" and hand it over to us to help you operate and publish, which can definitely cause a sales frenzy. Editor-in-chief Jiang said straight to the point.
"I do have the desire to publish Breaking the Sky physically. Before me, there was no online physical publishing and sales, and they were only sold electronically online. So I wanted to be the first person to eat crabs. Qin Luo didn't hide his thoughts either, and he told them out.
"So, did you agree?" Editor-in-Chief Jiang was overjoyed.
"I myself gladly agreed. Qin Luo said this, and the words changed, "However, I first signed an exclusive licensing agreement for literary works with the original Chinese Network, so part of the copyright of "Breaking the Sky" is not owned by me alone. ”
"At first, wasn't Chinese.com only responsible for electronic sales? What do they want to do with physical publishing copyrights?" Editor-in-Chief Jiang frowned.
"I can answer that question. At this time, a middle-aged man about forty years old walked in.
When Qin Luo saw the man, he quickly stood up and asked curiously, "Squad leader?"
"Hello Qin Luo, first time we met, I am the team leader. The middle-aged man shook hands with Qin Luo and said hello," said the deputy editor of the boys' channel of the Chinese network at first. ”
"It's really a hassle for you to fly here early in the morning. Qin Luo said politely.
"It's okay, for the physical publication of "Breaking the Sky", we attached great importance to the Chinese website at first. The squad leader said.
The reason why the team leader came here was because after Qin Luo hung up the phone of Editor-in-Chief Jiang yesterday, he remembered that "Breaking the Sky" seemed to have signed a copyright agreement, and he didn't know much about this aspect, so he directly told the editor in charge, Maple Ye.
Maple Leaf attached great importance to it, and immediately reported it to the team leader, so he flew from Shanghai to negotiate today.
"Qin Luo, what does this mean?" Editor-in-Chief Jiang asked with a frown and looking at Qin Luo.
"Editor-in-Chief Jiang, don't get me wrong, the physical publishing rights of "Breaking the Sky" still belong to your Huashu Publishing House. Qin Luo hurriedly said.
Editor-in-Chief Jiang's frowning brows were relaxed, "Then what is he ......?"
"Editor-in-chief Jiang, right? I came this time to discuss a cooperation with your society on behalf of the original Chinese network. The team leader said eloquently, "Now that online literature is attracting more and more attention from the public, it is only a matter of time before it is accepted by the mainstream society." You should know that at the beginning, we were the leader and pioneer of online literature on the Chinese website, and in addition to "Breaking the Sky", there were many other popular networks in the website library. If we can, we can work together for a long time, we take care of the electronic sales and your company takes care of the physical publishing. Together, "Breaking the Sky" will be built into a golden IP!"
"We believe that in the future, IP will be the most valuable!"
