Chapter 146: Pit Website

The different news that was placed in the three places did not take long to cause a very big impact. In addition to the new book that has just opened, the reader of either of the two books "Amorous Swordsman Ruthless Sword" and "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" takes out one-tenth, which is enough to set off a very big storm on the Internet.

Not to mention three books together.

It didn't take long for three more voices to appear on the web.

""Xiao Li Flying Knife" fans come to the war!"

"Fans of "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" have come to join the war!"

"Fans of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" are here to join the war!"

Those who originally supported Qingshan instantly found that even if they sent another message, they were quickly drowned out by the many voices praising Jin Gu.

Then they found that the advantages they had relied on were gone.

Chen Ming also saw the remarks of these book fans on the Internet, although he felt that these people were quite secondary, but Chen Ming was still very happy.

Although these books were written by Gu Long and Jin Yong, Chen Ming felt very proud to see that these works could be liked by so many people in another world.

Seeing that the people who supported him had the upper hand, he didn't care anymore, and the current situation was not his goal.

The more this matter gets bigger and the more people know about it, there will definitely be some very high-level critics who will get involved and start a real discussion about the merits of the two books.

Chen Ming believes that as long as these critics are really good and have not been bought, they will definitely be able to see the extraordinary nature of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

He also remembered that the "********" on the earth selected the "Top 100 Chinese Novels of the Twentieth Century" by scholars and experts around the world, and among the 100 works selected, there were five martial arts novels, two of which were by Jin Yong.

These two works are "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "The Legend of the Deer and Ding", and he originally relied on this list to select novels, so he still remembers this very clearly.

So even if it is a novel written by the world's top martial arts writer, Chen Ming is confident that "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is not worse than above.

The phone on the table rang suddenly, and it was Wei Tao calling.

"Is there something wrong?" Chen Ming usually didn't call Wei Tao when he knew he was fine.

"Something happened. Wei Tao said with a little anger, "Just now, 'Chivalry in the World' sent someone to terminate the relevant matters related to the publication of the physical book of "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang", saying that he did not believe in our strength and wanted to find another company to cooperate. ”

"Can they do whatever they want to do about this?" Chen Ming asked.

"I've seen the contracts you signed with them, and they do have this kind of provision, and in terms of the electronic copyright and physical copyright they signed, their company can indeed completely take care of it, regardless of the author's opinion. Wei Tao said.

"What about the entity of the book "Amorous Swordsman Ruthless Sword"?" Chen Ming asked, he had already guessed that the website would fight back, so he was not too surprised.

"This was negotiated very early, and the new book went on sale three days later. Wei Tao said.

"That's worth it, if you shoot "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" at that time, it will definitely be a hit again, I don't believe that the website will not make such a big profit, even if it cooperates with other companies, it will give me 50% of the profit. Chen Ming said.

"Well, that's all I can think of. Wei Tao sighed.

"How is the sales of the 'Heroes in the World' magazine now, and how much net profit can they make per copy?" Chen Ming suddenly asked.

"Wait, I'll check it out for you. Wei Tao said and went to look through the documents, for this magazine, the company still has data analysis.

"I found it, the sales volume of the latest issue is 900 to 10 million, and they can have a net profit of almost a dollar per copy. Why are you asking about this?" Wei Tao asked.

"It's normal to have a back and forth, you remember the contract I mentioned to you last time, I got about 190,000 yuan from the magazine last month, how about we just terminate the contract?" Chen Ming said with a smile.

Hearing Chen Ming's words, Wei Tao was directly stunned, if the contract is terminated, according to the agreement, he will have to compensate ten times the manuscript fee, that is, 1.9 million.

But the loss of "Chivalry in the World" is not as simple as 1.9 million, and now the sales of this magazine are almost all supported by "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang", if the two sides no longer cooperate, even if the sales of the magazine are only halved, they will lose almost five million net profits in one issue.

After calculating an account in his heart, Wei Tao instantly became excited, when he talked about the physical book with the staff of "Chivalry in the World" just now, he didn't mention how aggrieved he was.

If it weren't for the constraints of modern civilization, he would have wanted to go up and beat those people.

However, Wei Tao's excited mood quickly calmed down, and said: "Although this is relieving, the company can't come up with so much money now, it's not enough at all." ”

"Don't worry about this, I'll transfer the money to you as soon as the phone hangs up. Chen Ming said.

"Okay, I'll take someone to do it now. Wei Tao said excitedly.

When I was talking to the other party about the manuscript fee for the magazine serialization, the woman on the other side withheld the rope, Wei Tao believed that if it came out like this, those people would definitely regret that the manuscript fee was too little.

Wei Tao doesn't have any sympathy for these people, in his opinion, these people are used to lying down and making money, and they deserve it in this matter.

"Well, let's start a magazine after that, I think it's quite profitable. Chen Ming said.

He doesn't do anything just to get angry, he wants to relieve his anger and seek the greatest benefit for himself at the same time.

Why can the magazine use the "Legend of Chu Liuxiang" written by him to get tens of millions of profits every month, and he only has a mere 180,000 manuscript fees?

Since the company is unkind, don't blame him for being unjust.

Hearing that Chen Ming wanted to start a magazine, Wei Tao's heart moved, he hadn't thought of this before, this was a big cake.

"Okay, I'll deal with this matter and let the people in the company come up with a plan, but it's not fast. Wei Tao said.

"There's no rush in this matter, just take your time, that's it, hang up first. Chen Ming said, he also knows that he can't eat a big fat man in one go, the road has to be taken step by step, as long as there is this development plan.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Ming made a call to the bank and transferred the money to Wei Tao.

At this time, it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon, and before it was time to eat, Chen Ming felt a little tired, so he left the computer.

The door of Xu Xiaomei's room was closed, and Chen Ming knew that she was practicing internal skills, so he didn't bother.

Opening the window, Chen Ming put his finger to his lips and used his fingers instead of leaves to blow out the rhythm of controlling poisonous insects.

Yesterday, several years of internal force had been added, and Chen Ming wanted to see if he could replace the leaves in an easier way now.
