------

Lin Mu was overjoyed, nodded again and again, the highest single book sales of Blue Ocean Publishing House was 26 million copies, and he didn't think that "The Legend of Mountains and Rivers" could buy this sales. "The Legend of Mountains and Rivers" he plans to price 35 yuan, 35 yuan multiplied by 26 million, multiplied by 15%, oh my God, how much should this be!

It's hundreds of millions of dollars.

Lin Mu was so excited that he was almost speechless.

looked at Chen Xiaojiao expectantly, now that the conditions are equal, how will he choose?

Markup?or exit?

"Price increase--- price increase--- price increase," Lin Mu shouted in his heart.

Hehe, today is really a bumper harvest! Lin Mu's heart was overjoyed, and he trembled with excitement.

Chen Xiaojiao nodded, this is indeed a solution, those who don't know the situation still think that Qin Tian has suffered a big loss, so he has nothing to say. It's just that this makes him even more puzzled in his heart, this Qin Tian is so optimistic about this book? Impossible! This book has not only been rejected by the publishing house, but its popularity on the Internet is also very average!

Why did he pay such a big price for this?

"Could it be that the other party is the same as himself, and can predict the future?"

Chen Xiaojiao shook his head and smiled, this thought flashed in his mind. Although he couldn't guess Qin Tian's thoughts, he could see that the latter was determined to obtain the copyright of "The Legend of Mountains and Rivers"!

Thinking about it, he snorted and sneered: "I will pay a license fee of 2 million, and the royalty share will remain unchanged." ”

"I paid 3 million, the same 15% royalty share. Qin Tian shouted without hesitation.

"4 million. Chen Xiaojiao calmly raised the price.

"5 million. Qin Tian didn't want to think about it, so he directly increased the price by 1 million again.

"6 million. The doubts in Chen Xiaojiao's eyes deepened, Qin Tian's performance was really abnormal in his opinion.

"10 million. Qin Tian shouted out this sky-high price.

"11 million. Chen Xiaojiao was not deterred, and added another 1 million.

"20 million. Qin Tian's ordinary and ordinary face distorted, and he roared hoarsely at a sky-high price of 20 million. Such a price does not exist in the entire publishing industry. You know, it's not a buyout, it's an authorization.

This time, Chen Xiaojiao stopped, because Chen Xiaoyu covered his mouth with a small hand, and Si Kehui was also pulling him to prevent him from continuing to go crazy. Editor-in-chief Yu and Editor Miao also stopped with their eyes.

In their opinion, 10 million, buying a copyright that I don't know what the future holds, and it is only authorized, is really irrational.

Chen Xiaojiao shook off his cousin's hand, signaled to Si Kehui and the others, saying that he would not be impulsive, and then smiled inexplicably at Qin Tian and said, "Okay, you won." ”

Qin Tian said that he was not happy to win, although he won, he paid several times the sky-high price. After only getting a 2-year license and paying 15% of the royalties, he was simply wronged. can think about the true value of this book, he had to pinch his nose to accept it, and pay an extra 10 million to obtain the authorization of "The Legend of Mountains and Rivers" for a total of 7 years.

Yes, the original authorization of 1 million a year that Lin Mu said became 2 million a year after Chen Xiaojiao gave up the competition.

Lin Mu's greed is about to drive Qin Tian crazy.

This negotiation broke up unhappily, even if Qin Tian, who successfully won the copyright of "The Legend of Mountains and Rivers", was not happy at all. He was both resentful of Chen Xiaojiao's troubles and angry with Lin Mu's greed.

Not to mention Chen Xiaojiao, who found nothing, his face was even more gloomy.

Today is just a full load of trees, but does he think that this is really the end of the matter?

On the way back to the hotel room, Chen Xiaojiao remembered the future information he had picked up last night.

------

In the hotel room, Chen Xiaojiao, Chen Xiaoyu, and Si Kehui and others sat on the sofa in the living room, depressed.

Among them, Editor-in-Chief Yu and Editor Miao used iPads and connected to the Internet to read the novel "The Legend of Mountains and Rivers". After a while, Editor-in-Chief Yu put down his iPad and sighed: "This is indeed a good book, it has low popularity on the Internet, and it was rejected by the Fantasy House Publishing House, there should be another hidden reason, it should not be buried." ”

Fantasy House, the publishing house where Chen Xiayu worked before, focuses on fantasy books.

"Yes, there is a hidden secret, this book can definitely be popular, so I definitely can't let it go. Chen Xiaojiao played with his mobile phone and said with determination.

"The author has already signed a contract with that guy named Qin Tian, what other chance do you have?" Si Kehui glanced at him.

"Hehe! On the surface, it seems that there is no chance. But what if ------" Chen Xiaojiao smiled mysteriously, "What if the creator of this book is not Lin Mu?"

"What?"

Everyone was startled, raised their heads, and stared at Chen Xiaojiao, very incredulous. Could it be that everything that happened today is a big scam? A scam involving nearly 200 million funds?

Chen Xiaojiao was a little uncomfortable, moved his body, and said with a smile: "Hehe, don't look at me like that, I am also guessing, and I still need to prove it." ”

"Then you should prove it quickly!" Si Kehui came back to his senses and slapped him angrily.

Chen Xiaojiao smiled, picked up his mobile phone, and dialed a number.

"Hey, pigeon, do you miss my brother? "Yes, he dialed Zhang Ge's phone.

"You haven't been to Thailand, do you want to hang you?" On the other end of the phone, Zhang Ge's mood didn't seem to be very high.

Chen Xiaojiao had a black line on his forehead, shook his head, and said, "Wasn't you tired last night?

", brother's kidneys are fine. Zhang Ge muttered, as if he was a little weak-hearted, and then interrupted: "Don't talk about the calf, say it quickly, what's the matter, my brother is busy." ”

Chen Xiaojiao was speechless, and didn't bother to pay attention to his messy things, and asked directly: "I remember hearing you blow, your family is quite capable in the Shanghai market, is it really fake?"

", naturally, it's true. Zhang Ge said proudly.

"Then help me check someone?" asked Chen Xiaojiao.

"Who?" Zhang Ge's tone straightened.

"A woman named Retsuki. Chen Xiaojiao said.

"That's it?" Zhang Ge said.

"Hmm. Chen Xiaojiao hummed as a matter of course, and then thought about it, this bit of information is quite difficult to investigate, and then added, "By the way, she is a woman, and she is currently in Shanghai." ”

The whole supplement made Zhang Ge's face darken.

"You kid really takes me as a god, just this bit of information, how can I help you find a woman who only knows one gender, one name, and doesn't know the surname in Shanghai, which has a population of tens of millions?"

"Uh!" Chen Xiaojiao was slightly embarrassed, thought about it, and said: "She should be a writer, so you can help me check if there is a woman named Lianyue in the Shanghai Writers Association." As he spoke, he suddenly remembered something again, and added: "The focus is on fantasy authors, by the way, there is also a pen name called Miki, you can also check it." ”

Zhang Ge breathed a sigh of relief, "It's pretty much the same, I'll let people check it now, and there should be results in the afternoon." ”

"Well, thanks. ”

Chen Xiaojiao thanked him, and just wanted to hang up the phone, he suddenly remembered Qin Tian's ordinary face in his mind, "By the way, there is another person, his name is Qin Tian, he should be from Yangcheng, you can also help me check." ”
