"Happy cooperation!" Tao Li held Xia Wenzhi's hand. Responded with a smile. In any case, the negotiation with Xia Wenzhi was still very pleasant, and the other party did not embarrass himself on the terms of the contract, and long-term cooperation should be feasible.
After shaking hands with Chen Tianxiang and Yang Zhongming, Xia Wenzhi left, he now has a lot of things to do, and he can't delay for a moment.
"This Boss Xia is very good. Looking at Xia Wenzhi's departing figure, Yang Zhongming said with a smile.
"But it's quite energetic to let our Principal Zhang personally come forward to match. Chen Tianxiang also said meaningfully.
"It doesn't matter who introduced it, it doesn't make a difference which publishing house is the agent, but with this Boss Xia, the things on the contract are very easy to negotiate, and it saves a lot of trouble. Tao Li also said with a smile.
"Okay, let's go back and share the good news with the big guy!" Now that the contract has been negotiated, then we are waiting to get the money, and Yang Zhongming naturally wants to share this moment with the teachers in the teaching and research department.
According to the terms they finally negotiated, Xia Wenzhi, as Party B, will enjoy the exclusive publishing rights of "Friends of Mathematics" for five years, and Xia Wenzhi will pay Tao Li a total of 2 million in a lump sum for these five years of copyright, in addition, in these five years, for every copy sold, Tao Li and all the editors will get a 12% share!
Of course, the share here refers to the share sold by Xia Wenzhi's publishing house, not the share of a point of sale like Yiyou Bookstore.
In addition, there is an additional clause in the contract, "If a new series is published, Party B will receive the right of first refusal".
That is to say, aside from the share, Tao Li has already received a guaranteed copyright fee of 2 million, even if each teacher in the teaching and research department divides it equally, each person is more than 200,000, which can be said to be very rich. If the book sells well, plus the share, it will definitely exceed the salary of most teachers.
On the other side, after Xia Wenzhi went out of the conference room, he walked directly in the direction of Yiyou Bookstore, Zhao Hang, who had been waiting for him for a long time, immediately greeted him as soon as he saw him appear, "How is it, has it been negotiated?"
"Of course, the agreement was negotiated, and the contract could be signed in the afternoon. But this Mr. Tao is very good, I thought he would be a good teacher with me in terms of sharing and royalties! I didn't expect him to negotiate with me, and he directly implemented the terms I first proposed, and I can see that he is indeed a good teacher. Xia Wenzhi said with great emotion.
"This teacher Tao's reputation in the school is really good, no wonder so many students like him, it still makes sense. Zhao Hang usually knows how popular Taoli is in school.
"I'll go back and arrange things first, and I'll contact you to pick up the goods after the book is officially published. Xia Wenzhi looked at the time, and he had to sign a contract with Tao Li in the afternoon, and he had to print a few more sample books for Tao Li to see, and he needed to arrange these things.
"Okay! When the book is printed, just call me, and I'll go to your company to get the goods." Zhao Hang nodded and replied.
After Xia Wenzhi walked out of Jinling Middle School, he drove directly to the company, arranged several important things at hand one by one, and came to the printing house of the company with several other people from the publishing house, and the division of a book, the most important thing is that the publishing house and the printing house account for the majority, basically accounting for more than 80% of the income of a book, so that with his own printing house, Xia Wenzhi can send most of the profits to his own pocket. This is also one reason why he is willing to give Tao Li a 12% share.
Because Tao Li has high requirements for the printing quality of the book, Xia Wenzhi had to go to the printing house to personally supervise it, he had a hunch that the book would definitely bring him a lot of profits, and he didn't want to lose this business because the printing quality was not up to standard.
According to Xia Wenzhi's request, the printing house immediately arranged personnel to print the book separately, and at the beginning, a copy was printed first, and after Xia Wenzhi took it and looked at it, he felt that the printing quality had met the requirements of Tao Li, so he asked them to print four copies according to such standards.
In the afternoon, Xia Wenzhi took the five printed books and the drawn up contract, and came to Jinling Middle School again, Tao Li, as the representative of all the participating staff, officially signed the contract with Xia Wenzhi, and at the same time, Tao Li also felt very good about the samples that Xia Wenzhi brought, as long as it can be printed according to such standards, then he and Xia Wenzhi will have the opportunity to continue to cooperate.
After all the documents are signed, it means that the publishing house owned by Xia Wenzhi will have the exclusive publishing rights of the book "Friends of Mathematics" for five years.
In this way, with the signed contract, Xia Wenzhi returned to the company satisfied, and then urgently held a mobilization meeting, and the heads of various departments of the publishing house were all present to attend the meeting.
The content of the meeting is very simple, that is, to devote all our energy to the planning and printing of the book "Friends of Mathematics", and strive to complete the goal of printing 10,000 copies for the first time by the end of this month, that is, within five days!
Because Xia Wenzhi wants to officially put the book "Friends of Mathematics" on the shelves at the beginning of next month!
As for the planning of this book, Xia Wenzhi feels that there is no need to intervene too much, with Tao Li's fame, as long as there are students who know that Tao Li has compiled a reference book, there will inevitably be a large number of students vying to buy it, and the word of mouth among students is the best advertisement for this book.
Now that the task indicators have been issued, the publishing house where Xia Wenzhi works has begun to rotate, and all the departments of the entire company are revolving around the printing house, and the printing house has also left the rest of the things at hand, and all the staff in the factory are working overtime to serve the book "Friends of Mathematics".
In order to be able to successfully complete the printing task, the printing plant has rarely implemented a two-shift work system, since the machine has been opened, it has not stopped, fortunately the machine has not failed in these days, otherwise they are busy.
In this way, with the efforts of everyone, the printing house finally completed the printing of all 10,000 books by the end of this month!
Looking at the brand-new books neatly placed in the warehouse and exuding the fragrance of ink, Xia Wenzhi's heart was surging for a while, and he didn't hesitate at all, and immediately dialed Zhao Hang's phone.
It's time for Zhao Hang to pick up the goods and sell them!
