Chapter 42: The Intestines Are Turning Green......
The group was silent for a full five minutes, and finally, a very old platinum god spoke.
Zongheng (Platinum): The impact of this novel is indeed very large, and it has destroyed the current online literature market, which will have a very big negative impact on us authors.
Chu Liuxiang (Great God): What do you think we should do? I've read it, and the data of that novel is indeed rare in the past few years. It is not an exaggeration to call it a phenomenal novel.
Ye Xiu (Platinum): Then can we pull that kid in and give him certain benefits, but it must be agreed that the rules of this circle cannot be broken.
Xue Lianyu: I know what kind of character that kid is, he even dares to scold my readers, and he is not a good person, so we will directly ban him, and it will be a hundred.
Ye Xiu: But we also have to take into account the reader, after all, he is our food and clothing parents, besides, the book written by that kid is indeed okay, at the beginning of the establishment of our master alliance, wasn't the original intention to recruit excellent authors from all over the country?
Everyone was arguing below, and for a while, four or five platinum gods, as well as more than two dozen god-level authors, all joined the discussion. After all, this is a matter of their interests, if they really let the arrogant guy destroy the market, then will they survive?
But just when everyone was discussing hotly, Zongheng sent a message.
Zongheng: After receiving the official information from the dot novel network, they decided to negotiate with 18S Company first to see if they could get the copyright of the book. So, let's wait a little bit and see what the results are on their side before deciding what to do next.
……
Hangzhou headquarters, 18S Chinese network, many bigwigs are about to regret their bowels.
"Who the signed the contract, are you stupid? Don't you have any eyesight? With such an egg-laying hen, it's so white?"
The middle-aged man was very serious, and in the large conference room, he pointed to the data on the PPT, "Look at this Panlong, this book has achieved very good results from the beginning, and even got the new book list, ranking eighth." ”
"But if you look at it now, update 100 chapters a day, do you think I'm a fool? Yes, the head office doesn't invest much in this area, we know that you people must have some complaints in your hearts, but you can't joke about the company's future?"
"Take a good look at the income of this book, and I can tell you very responsibly that the head office of this book has made a plan, and the overall income can reach at least tens of millions. ”
He glanced at everyone with a very grim gaze, especially on the face of Editor-in-Chief Liang, which stayed for several seconds.
"The tens of millions of revenues do not include film and television copyrights and online game adaptations. And I don't know if you have read the data of this book, the various websites and *, the tips are all combined, at least one million. ”
The reward for a book exceeded 1 million.
Even Editor-in-Chief Liang, who has been in this industry for a long time, took a hard breath to calm his mood.
He scolded in his heart: "Damn Lao Wang, why didn't you sign this book in the first place, if there is a performance guarantee for this book, then it is possible for him to impact the position in the head office." ”
Suddenly, he had something in mind. It can't be that this old king himself used to play tricks!
Although Lao Wang seems to be kind and kind, he is also hard-working in the company. But who knows what he thinks, he doesn't know his face.
The manager from the head office was still scolding on it, but the editor-in-chief Liang, who was sitting in the second position on the left, scolded Wang Rui for all eighteen generations.
The meeting lasted for two hours. Meetings of this length are very rare in the entire history of the 18s Chinese Network.
Panlong, this book subverts the latest online literature model, it can be said very simply that in the world in which Yang Fan lives, online literature has only developed to the level of Zhuxian, and as for the follow-up aura revival flow, Great Confucianism and the like, there has been no appearance.
So now this piece of cake can be said to be very huge. Moreover, the company also found a very important point around this book, that is, overseas users.
Overseas users, in the past, basically had no income for China's most fashionable Chinese network. and traditional Chinese martial arts, Xianxia and the like, each country has its own local characteristics.
The West generally focuses on magic and knights, and since the development of online literature, it is not that no one has considered writing Western novels, but they all ended in failure.
On top of that, the market as a whole is not yet mature.
The manager from the head office is not only for Panlong, they are a very mature large company, and at that time, they acquired 18S company at a very low price.
Therefore, they conducted an all-round analysis of Ge's extremely arrogant author, who quickly became popular from online articles.
"You come to see this book, I have read the content in it, and I have also invited data analysts in large companies, and the result they gave me is that if Panlong is aimed at Western users, then this tomb of the gods can be called both Chinese and Western. ”
At that moment, he directly called up the data of the Divine Tomb.
Tomb of the Gods
Author: Brother is extremely arrogant
Rating: 8.9
Genre: Fantasy/East-West Fantasy
Word count: 298,000 l serialized
Recommended Ticket: 368905 (2nd place)
Commuter pass: 0 (not contracted in this book)
Tip: 1,064,500
The data of this book, compared to Panlong, is indeed a little hot. But you must know that readers who have generally read Panlong, if they find that the author has written other books, they will definitely be curious to see it first, and as for whether to chase it down, it depends on the quality of the book.
However, Editor-in-Chief Liang knows that 90% of readers will definitely chase after him. Because the level of this book is not inferior to Panlong at all. And because it is both East and West, if you simply talk about it, the results may be worse than Panlong.
"Then why don't we sign a contract directly with him on the website now, and then compensate him for the money?" A small editor-in-chief of the website, seeing that there is such a big interest, wants to take the big website and press it down.
Anyway, when they came across good books before, they didn't do it before.
"No way!"
Hearing this, Editor-in-Chief Liang stood up directly.
Finding that everyone's eyes were projected on him, Editor-in-Chief Liang said with a pale face: "The contract we signed with the other party only includes the right to promote the book, besides, there is no reward before the signing, and the website is generally attributed to the author, and now this person is so popular, if we settle his money, then for other authors, it will definitely lose trust in the website." ”
"Then we can start from the technical level, we can ignore the data in the front, and we can throttle through technical means in the back. It's going to be unaware!"
"That's not good, do you treat those readers as fools? Each of them gives a reward, under the website will not take a cut, basically it is displayed in the work, how much money is how much, and it doesn't involve monthly passes, how to do data!"
"Lao Liang, what do you mean by this! How much money does the company spend, for your promotion, if you can't bring corresponding benefits to the company, just drop it directly. ”
The little boss from the head office was a little unhappy in his heart. Such a large piece of cake can't be swallowed in the mouth, and anyone will feel very upset.
"Let me think about ......"
Lao Liang was really driven crazy, he originally wanted to use the fame of this book to start the 18S website, but the people in the head office were relatively shallow, so they stared at the rewards of these two books.
How much are these tips, and it's only a few million. Besides, the contract has already been explained, and it is impossible to get the copyright of the film and television drama TV series and audiobooks and the like that you want to get, which was clearly available when the contract was signed.
Lao Liang is really a little depressed, because this matter involves the big IP fashion issued by the head office, he has also reported it, and this matter was agreed by the head office.
But no one expected that the results of this book would be so good.
Just when everyone was arguing about this matter, Lao Liang's mobile phone suddenly rang, and he looked at it with some annoyance, but a sense of solemnity suddenly flashed in his eyes.
"Hey, hello Mr. Xu!"
"Is it the editor-in-chief of Liang? You 18S have been in a hurry these days, and you got two divine books at once, and in our circle, it can really be said that the scenery is unique for a while. Mr. Xu said sourly.
"What, Mr. Xu is too popular. Well, I just don't know what Mr. Xu has to do, so let's just say it, our company is in a meeting, and it's really busy. Editor-in-chief Liang said nonchalantly, and made a shushing gesture to the crowd watching on the sidelines, and turned on the speakerphone.
The other side was obviously stunned for a moment, and he was a little unaccustomed to Editor-in-Chief Liang's straightforwardness. But he still said: "That's the case, didn't you get two good novels? We are very interested in these two books, of course, I know that you guys won't lay an egg hen over there, I mean, can you stay there?"
Residency, as the name suggests, is that this book is stationed in this website, as a genuine book, can be sold.
This is also the decision made by the dot after discussion. After all, 18S is not the same as in previous years, with the financial support of Brilliant Film and Television Entertainment Company, they can already compete with the dots. It can even be said politely that from the perspective of the original text distribution of the website, 18s is even better.
Editor-in-chief Liang was very entangled, and this entanglement was not whether to keep the book on the station, but from the contract he signed at that time. They did have the qualifications to be stationed at the station, but when they signed a contract with Yang Fan at that time, they failed to take down a series of copyrights such as physical books.
But because the book is so good, although they didn't get the copyright, but fortunately, the contract said that they had the right of first refusal to buy the copyright. In other words, if Yang Fan wants to sell the copyright, they have the right of first refusal within a reasonable price.
This is something that everyone present knows, and this is the point of anger at the head of the department.
However, only Wang Rui, who was not present, knew that if he wanted to fool me to Yang Fan, it would be tantamount to snatching food.
Seeing that Editor-in-Chief Liang didn't speak, Mr. Xu on the other side said again: "I know Lao Liang, this matter will make it difficult for you to do." But rest assured, in terms of price, we will definitely satisfy you. ”
"We also know that the book Panlong is very popular on the whole network now, so we plan to open a price of 2 million for the stationing of this book. Also, does this author have a book...... If you don't want the book, we're willing to pay twice the price for it. ”
Hehe, do you think Lao Tzu is stupid? If you want to come to us to pick up the leaks, and don't take a look, who can mix in this industry, who has a narrow vision?
"Hmm...... Let's discuss this matter internally, and in a few days, I'll give you an answer, okay?"
"You just think about it, the website is like a battlefield, and in less than a day, we have already suffered a lot of losses. Besides, if you can't give me an answer, Lao Liang, our website will also take corresponding measures for its own survival. ”
"Oh...... Then you can let the horse come, our 18S online literature company has not been afraid of anyone. ”
After Editor-in-Chief Liang finished speaking, he hung up the phone very decisively. But when he hung up the phone, his heart was also dripping blood.
