As Random House's highly qualified vice president of marketing operations, Johnson-Durant did not expect Bristol to be saved by a Chinese book.

"Damn the Chinese, damn the Chinese bear. ”

"Mr. Johnson, it's a panda, not a bear. ”

The assistant reminded him a little absent-mindedly.

"FUCK, I said it's a bear is a bear, fuck you panda. ”

"Mr. Johnson--"

"FUCK, shut up~"

The young assistant's face was flushed, and he was a little confused.

He knew very well that Johnson didn't listen to any opinions at all now, but then he glanced at the expression on the other party's face and was relieved.

"****!****u, ****u family, I'm not doing it anymore!"

He slammed the folder in his hand on the table in front of Johnson, and in his somewhat stunned look, he turned around and left the office directly.

"Get out!"

"Get out of here!"

A moment passed.

The roar of Johnson's office could be heard throughout the floor.

It didn't subside until a long time later.

Johnson was really angry this time.

If it weren't for the damn "Kung Fu Panda" of the Chinese, Bristol would have it at his fingertips at this time.

Damn the Chinese.

But no matter how angry he is, it is difficult to change this fact.

With the best-selling book of the Chinese, the Bristol kid may soon be able to get out of the company's financial difficulties, and not only that, but I am afraid that he can also take the opportunity to grow a lot.

As an old publisher.

Although Johnson Sr. has an unparalleled dislike for the Chinese book at the moment, he is not naïve.

He knew very well that a good book could change the fate of a publishing company, just like Bloomsbury, which published the Harry Potter series, and became one of the top publishing companies in the British Isles with a single series.

This time, it seems to be repeating the original story.

Only this time the protagonist was changed to Bristol.

If this Chinese book can continue to sell as well as the "Harry Potter" series, Bristol may become a rival to Bloomsbury.

Naturally.

Random House also lost the possibility of the last merger and acquisition of the other party.

"Jack, you immediately help me find the author of that Chinese book and the Chinese publisher, and tell them that we are willing to provide them with a better sales channel, and the requirement is that they work with our Random House, not the damn Bristol. ”

"It's no longer possible, John, and not so long ago, Mr. Lane of the Bristol Company has officially published his reputation, and the Chinese writer has handed over the distribution rights of the whole of Europe to the Bristol Company. ”

Syllable!

Hang up the phone suddenly.

Johnson's face had become a little ugly.

Damn it.

Ryan's kid is just too fast.

With some hesitation, Johnson dialed the number in Lane's office.

"HeY, Ryan, I'm Johnson. ”

"Hello, Mr. Johnson, is there anything I can do to help you?"

"Of course, if you want, you can introduce your Chinese friends to me. ”

Some half-jokingly said a word, and the microphone fell silent for a moment.

Ryan didn't speak.

In fact.

He had already guessed that the other party would do this, but would they really work doing it?

"I'm sorry, Mr. Johnson, and I don't think Random House would have been willing to authorize you to pay for this contract, even if I had been willing. ”

Ryan's words made Johnson a little stunned for an instant.

Hang up.

This time, Johnson's face was already full of shock.

He was shocked.

Because what Ryan told him was a number that Random House really couldn't have promised.

40% profit on sales.

"God, how is this possible? Is Ryan crazy?"

In fact.

Instead of going crazy, Ryan made a wise choice.

Because Lin Tao's work is worth the price.

"Kung Fu Panda" was officially released in the UK on the evening of the first day of the Chinese New Year, that is, in the early morning of the second day of the Chinese New Year.

On that day, more than 500,000 copies were distributed.

Wang Dongdong and Li Weiwei caught a plane from the UK to Donghai in China that evening after the first day of the launch ceremony in the UK.

I didn't arrive at Tokai International Airport until the next day.

And at this time.

Far away in Europe, France.

Bristol's founder, Ryan Brie Stoll, has signed publishing contracts with two French publishers and has supply agreements with nearly 100 retailers across France.

Meanwhile.

As Lane's plenipotentiary.

Jenny Reinhardt also led the company's marketing department in the early stages of promotional work throughout Europe.

Time.

It was as if the whole of Europe had been taken over by Chinese pandas.

And in the following time.

Just when China is still immersed in the festivities of the Lunar New Year.

"Kung Fu Panda" has once again turned on Berserk mode in Europe.

The eighth day of the first lunar month.

"Kung Fu Panda" debuted in France.

380,000 copies were distributed on the same day.

The tenth day of the first lunar month.

More than 1,000 retailers across Germany began selling the German version of Kung Fu Panda, which set a record of 460,000 copies for the first time.

Immediately after Germany.

"Kung Fu Panda" soon debuted in Spain and Switzerland, and sales almost skyrocketed.

And this time.

The drawbacks of Bristol's inadequate preparation are beginning to become apparent.

With the volume of publication they expected, they simply could not meet the demand for horror in the market.

Under these circumstances, Ryan had to work overtime to find new printing houses throughout Europe at high prices for printing and binding.

Even so, the availability situation is still a bit stretched.

For the best-selling Chinese work in Europe, almost all European media have paid great attention to it.

Domestic.

Dongjiang Literary Magazine.

After returning home.

Wang Dongdong immediately suggested to the top management of the magazine that he immediately sign a new contract with Lin Tao.

The proposal was approved by the board of directors with little to no opposition, as soon as the European sales figures came out.

The entire top management of the magazine understood that this time they really couldn't stop Wang Dongdong and the author named Xiaobai.

Soon.

In the case that Lin Tao himself did not even participate in the negotiations, the magazine prepared an updated contract for him in the shortest possible time.

According to the provisions of the new contract.

Lin Tao handed over the publishing rights of "Kung Fu Panda" and the second work to Dongjiang Literary Magazine, and the other party obtained the publishing rights of the works with 50% of the sales profits.

50% share of sales.

If nothing else.

This figure is likely to be the highest in the entire history of publishing.

Of course.

If Lin Tao's next work is still as popular as it is now, then this data may only seem bleaker.

Just after the new contract was signed.

And then over the next few days.

Driven by modern industrial machines and economic profits.

Kung Fu Panda is once again available in English in the Nordic and Eastern European countries, until the 15th day of the lunar calendar, the traditional Chinese Lantern Festival.

Kung Fu Panda was released in 22 European countries.

The release is available in English, German, French, Spanish and Italian, and the total sales have reached a terrifying 7.3 million copies in half a month.

In one fell swoop, it has set a new sales record and a best-selling list in various European countries.

And Xiaobai.

This little-known Chinese author.

It also officially topped the major book sales charts and news headlines in Europe.

Become the hottest star at the beginning of 2006.

At this time, Lin Tao was far away in Songping City, China.

But I didn't feel that my life was affected in the slightest.

Rather, while preparing a new book.

The beginning waits for another beginning. That is, the arrival of a new semester.

Time.

It has quietly come to the 16th of the first month.
