Chapter 32: Eagerness

While the smear storm of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" is intensifying, Weilian and Zhou Changxing have completed the promotion of the NC County Internet café management system.

In two days, except for the five computer rooms that were tried at the beginning, the remaining seven or eight computer rooms were all installed with Zhou Xuan's Internet café management system.

Therefore, Zhou Xuan also recorded more than 40,000 yuan, in addition to giving 15,000 yuan to the Weilian Promotion Fund. The remaining tens of thousands of yuan, plus Zhou Xuan's previous funds, totaled 100,000 yuan, which were deposited by Zhou Xuan into another bank card.

This bank stock card is intended to be used to register a company in the provincial capital, and this card will be the company's corporate account in the future.

Weilian and Zhou Changxing set off in the morning on the 6th, and after five or six hours of turbulence, they arrived in the provincial capital at four o'clock in the afternoon.

Then the two of them first went to the hotel to open a room and take a rest.

The next day, the third uncle, Zhou Changxing, began to survey the computer room in Rongcheng, while Weilian was responsible for recruiting business promoters and registering companies.

According to Zhou Xuan's meaning, it is necessary to set up the platform of Huanyu Technology Co., Ltd. now. After all, there is a company's brand, which is also convenient when talking about business, and it cannot be underestimated. And also in order to reassure business personnel, financial personnel.

On the 7th, the method discussed by Wei Xiyue and the president began to be implemented on this day. Through the various relationships and resources of the publishing house, the two must curb this unhealthy trend.

First of all, Xiling Publishing House first contacted newspapers such as "South China Evening News", "Xincheng Express", and "Sanjiang Daily", which had a good relationship. Pay a certain price and favors, and let several newspapers report "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" from the front.

Then the newspaper arranged for reporters to go to major bookstores for interviews, and reported everyone's likes and praises for the Ming Dynasty.

In this way, the wave of criticism set off by the Northern Publishing House was somewhat suppressed. People who have not seen the Ming Dynasty see that there are those who say they are good-looking, and there are those who say they are garbage, and they suddenly don't know who to believe.

However, as more and more people have seen the Ming Dynasty, through word of mouth, the reputation and sales of the Ming Dynasty have steadily increased in the scolding war.

At the same time, other first-class publishing houses in China have also secretly contributed to digging up the situation. made this scolding war more enthusiastic, and it simply had the meaning of heated discussion among the whole people, and the pen name of Zhou Zixuan became famous in China.

The resources of Xiling Publishing House are not as many as those of the Northern Publishing House, and several other first-class publishing houses have also suppressed them intentionally or unintentionally, although they are not as strong as those in the North.

However, the rebellious psychology of the masses and the reputation of the Ming Dynasty did make up for this gap very well. The two sides come and go, and they are evenly matched, and this is what Zhou Xuan and Xiling Publishing House like to see.

In the southwestern and southern provinces, the Ming Dynasty ushered in another sales spree, and on February 6, due to the sudden attack of the northern publishing house, only 65,000 copies were sold.

But on the 7th, because of the scolding war between the two sides, the sales exceeded 100,000 copies. It can be said that the Ming Dynasty completely established the throne of super bestsellers, and the top three bestsellers of the year are certain.

On the afternoon of the 7th, Zhou Xuan was helping out in a clothing store, but received a call from Zhongzhou Publishing House. To Zhou Xuan's surprise, their editor-in-chief Yan Ling had actually arrived in Rongzhou, and there was still an hour before she arrived in NC County.

Zhou Xuan was a little puzzled by the sudden arrival of Zhongzhou Publishing House, even if he discussed the publication of "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" and "Spring Breeze Ten Miles is Not as Good as You", he shouldn't be in such a hurry.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Xuan met Ms. Yan Lingyan, the editor-in-chief of Zhongzhou Publishing House, at the riverside teahouse.

Yan Ling is about forty years old, dressed smartly, and dressed as a strong woman.

Seeing Zhou Xuan, the surprise in Yan Ling's eyes flashed, and she said with a smile: "I didn't expect everyone to be so young in our eyes, it's really surprising." Hello, I am Yan Ling, editor-in-chief of Zhongzhou Publishing House. ”

Zhou Xuan was already immune to other people's surprises, but there were still many questions about Zhongzhou's eagerness to obtain the copyright of Hawthorn Tree Love.

"Editor-in-Chief Yan has won the award. Editor-in-chief Yan came to Rongzhou thousands of miles away today, and it also surprised me?"

"Haha, as soon as the Ming Dynasty comes out, who will compete! If we don't run faster, if we let other publishing houses publish "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree", it will really be a regret. Yan Ling said with a smile, full of admiration for the love between the Ming Dynasty and the hawthorn tree written by Zhou Xuan.

Zhou Xuan nodded, deeply pleased that Yan Ling and the publishing house were optimistic about the love of the hawthorn tree. But for Yan Ling to come over in such a hurry, there are indeed deep doubts.

He felt that there must be something in this that he didn't know.

Zhou Xuan looked at Yan Ling with deep meaning, as if he wanted to find something in Yan Ling's eyes. But Zhou Xuan failed, for such an old fox who has been in the mall for a long time, Zhou Xuan is still too tender.

"Oh, then I don't know what your society thinks about the publication of Hawthorn Tree Love? You know, there are no less than ten companies that are going to publish Hawthorn Tree Love in the past few days?"

When Yan Ling heard this, she confidently took out a simple intention from her bag: "Zhou Xuan, our publishing house is very optimistic about the publication of "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree". With the publication of the Ming Dynasty, your fame grew, and the sales of our monthly novels grew. Here, I want to thank you! I believe that the sales of "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" will not be much worse than that of the Ming Dynasty. And the community agreed that the love of the hawthorn tree was suitable for changing the movie. After publication, we will definitely use the relationship of the publisher to adapt it as soon as possible. ”

Looking at what was written in the letter of intent and what Yan Ling said, Zhou Xuan finally knew what Yan Ling wanted. The royalty share given by Zhongzhou is very high, reaching 20 percent, but the copyright of movies and television series has to be given to publishers.

That is to say, with a 20% royalty share, the publishing rights and film rights of Hawthorn Tree Love will be obtained in the next ten years.

If it were someone else, it would definitely be nice to see such a royalty share. Because film and television copyrights are difficult to sell, there are so many works every year, and several of them can be adapted into movies and TV series.

But Zhou Xuan knew that Zhang Yimou was sure to make a movie, and after its release, it collected 160 million at the box office, breaking the box office record for literary films.

How could Zhou Xuan sell the film and television rights of Hawthorn Tree Love to others.

"I'm sorry, thank you Zhongzhou Publishing House for your attention. However, it is impossible for me to give up the film and television copyright of Hawthorn Tree Love. ”

Hearing Zhou Xuan's answer, Yan Ling's face was stunned and incredulous: "Zhou Xuan, you don't want to?"

"Yes, publishing can. But film and television copyrights, I don't sell them. ”

Yan Ling hurriedly said: "You must know that twenty percent of the royalties in Huaxia except for the top ones, no one can get such a high share." And film and television copyright is just that we think it is possible to publish, and there are not necessarily directors who are interested in it, and companies that are willing to invest. Since the publishing house is to operate, the film and television copyright must be sold to the publishing house. ”

"Hehe, is it?" Zhou Xuan looked at Yan Ling with a smile.
