Chapter 287: Resigned to fate

At the beginning, the manuscript of "Fairy Sword" was reviewed by Han Mo, and she had heard of this for a long time, after all, there have been more and more physical publications on the Internet in recent years, and it is precisely because of this that Han Mo has more contact with authors in this part of the online text.

And Han Mo herself also wrote romance online articles when she was young, and the results of several vests are not bad, and she is familiar with many people in the online literature circle!

The Xianxia "Sword Reversal" published by Xingyao last year was also signed by Han Mo, and this book is quite unacceptable whether it is Baidu Index or subscription on 16 Chinese Network, and the author 'Tinker Bell' Han Mo also knows, belonging to a model from fighting the street to the great god.

With such an inspirational author and such a popular IP, Han Mo thinks that the sales of this book will have to sell hundreds of thousands of copies of him!

As a result, none of the 30,000 copies of the pre-sale were sold out, not to mention that the 400,000 copies of the first printing were all eaten in the warehouse!

This incident also greatly reduced Han Mo's voice in the publishing house, and as a result, this time she made another decision to sign the book "Crush the Gods", not to mention that the royalties were even given a huge share of 13%!

For a while, many people in the publishing house thought that Han Mo's brain was pumped?

Even if the editor-in-chief didn't know who she was, would he think that she was wearing a vest to make the difference?

This time and space are similar to another time and space, and only best-selling authors are eligible to bargain with publishers, but even so, 13% of such a share of some famous writers do not have this treatment.

It's too high!

Most of the royalty shares are only between 5 and 8, and a newcomer is a top hat for 7 points.

For this reason, Han Mo has been questioned since he signed "Sword of Fairy", not only that, but the publishing house believes that the first batch of 100,000 copies printed is almost enough, but there is no way, "Sword Reversal" made them lose miserably.

But Han Mo didn't agree, she thought that this "Fairy Sword" would definitely be violent!

The hot IP in the online literature industry, the hot TV series in the entertainment industry, the smooth writing, the ups and downs of the love story, the imaginative ancient legends, the fairy world, etc., all of which are combined, there is no reason why this "Fairy Sword" should not be successful!

But it didn't happen, after all, "Sword Reversal" before "Fairy Sword" also said so, but the result was extremely miserable.

Not only the editor-in-chief, but even Li Dong, the boss of the publishing house, said to Han Mo: "Xiao Han, I know you want to prove yourself, but this is not a gamble, the first printing of 100,000 is already the limit, if we print an additional 200,000, how can we not lose money if we buy tens of thousands of copies at that time?"

Han Mo said: "I'm not for anger, so let's do it, if I can't sell it, then I'll buy all the rest of the books myself, and at the same time I'll take the blame and resign!"

This sentence made Li Dong also a little surprised, and finally agreed.

For a while, the entire publishing house knew about Han Mo!

At home, Han Mo's best friend Liu Rong also complained a little and said: "I said Old Han, you are a little too risky, you are 30 years old, why are you still like a little girl?"

"Rong Rong, I don't have a conflict, but I think that "Fairy Sword" may really create a Xianxia trend. ”

Han Mo shook his head slightly and said: "Now it doesn't matter if it's on the Internet or physically, most of them are still going the old way, repeating the upgrade of routines or imitating the Xianxia of their predecessors, but this "Fairy Sword" is different, I read the original manuscript, I think it is really innovative and reasonable, this is what I think is the immortal." ”

"Uh, is that an exaggeration?"

Liu Rong said that she didn't understand.

It's not an exaggeration, the biggest sect of Xianxia is Taoism, that is, "self-cultivation and cultivation, cultivation into immortals", but today's Xianxia is the most popular on the Internet, most of them are upgrades, killing-based, the so-called chivalrous man, the core of saving the common people is gone. ”

Han Mo explained: "Of course, I'm not saying how good "Fairy Sword" is, at least I don't agree with the truth in it, especially love is also a bit bloody, but this flaw is not hidden, so I believe in this work!"

Liu Rong is indeed a little surprised, she knows what kind of personality her best friend has, she has been writing books since she was 16 years old, she started to be an editor at the age of 23, and now she is 30 years old.

Han Mo, the book "Sword Reversal" that hit the street last year, also said that it was a bit risky, and it was not recognized by the market.

As a result, this "Fairy Sword" Han Mo is so confident?

"I know what you mean, in fact, the plot of last year's "Sword Reversal" was a bit weak, and there were too few women portrayed in this area, but this "Fairy Sword" is not like this, he revolves around love, family affection, friendship, and the love of Li Min, female characters are not face-painted, each character has his own responsibilities, I believe this "Fairy Sword" will be a big hit. ”

Han Mo said confidently: "I believe in my own vision. ”

"I want to see what you say. ”

Liu Rong also said with some curiosity.

Han Mo smiled: "I have a manuscript here, do you want to read it?"

"Forget it, I'd better wait for tomorrow to grab the pre-sale, I still like to read physical books. ”

Liu Rong hurriedly waved her hand and said.

"Okay, after talking about me, how are you doing?"

Han Mo asked with some concern, "Isn't your company ready to support you?"

"Now there are so many rising stars, I'm 30 years old, and I don't have any topicality, do you think the company will still throw money at me?"

Liu Rong waved her hand slightly and said: "Even this "The Voice" was signed up by myself, my contract in "Huaxia Music" is about to expire, and they are not ready to sign me, so I want to fight it myself." ”

"Alas. ”

Han Mo is also a little regretful, she is also very familiar with her best friend, she originally has an explosive voice, which is more suitable for various styles, and the timbre variability is good, at least among the popular singers now, Han Mo doesn't think there are many singing skills comparable to Liu Rong's.

But there is no way, the same is true in the music world, it is not that you can get out if you sing well!

You don't have a chance, you don't have a good platform, just like Huang Ma at the beginning, if you didn't come to "I Am a Singer", I'm afraid you would have really become an aunt!

Although today's music scene has gradually declined, how many singers are still tearing up, there are so many resources, and the new generation of artists under Huaxia Music has a higher topic degree than Liu Rong, and they can make money, why do you want to tilt Liu Rong again?

"I really regret it now, I was fooled by Huaxia Music at the beginning. ”

Liu Rong gritted her teeth and said that six years ago, Liu Rong was still at the time of popularity, and in the face of the olive branch of the industry, she finally chose Chinese music!

After all, Huaxia Music is backed by Huaxia Brothers Media, and there must be a lot of resources.

It turned out to be hehe!

"Anyway, I hope you can fight your way through "The Voice". ”

Han Mo also sighed and said.

"Hopefully. ”

Liu Rong didn't have much hope, after all, the music company behind "The Voice" is not a good thing.

"Okay, cheer up, go, while I'm also in a bad mood, let's go to the waves together. ”

Han Mo clapped his hands and said: "Let's go, go shopping, pre-sell on time at 10 o'clock tomorrow, my heart is more nervous than the original **!"
