Chapter Eighty-Eight: Difficult to Choose

Many readers have seen the single chapter opened by Li Ming, and many book friends who have become loyal readers of "Inch Mang" have gone to see it, although Li Ming has only uploaded two chapters, but it does not affect their expectations at all!

However, it was the update of Li Ming's new book that disappointed them very much.

It's like you're used to an electric bike with a small electric motor, and then suddenly you are replaced with a pedal, of course you are not used to it.

I'm used to reading 10,000-word updates, and when you suddenly have an update with only two chapters, many readers feel a little awkward.

The book review area is also full of readers' book reviews, some support Li Ming's new book, and some complain about Li Ming's update.

"Come on, when I see that Eros has opened a new book, I will support it as soon as possible. ”

"The number of words is not much, I haven't read it, but I have collected it, and I am ready to wait for the number of words to be read!"

"I seriously read Xiao Ai's new novel, and I feel good, but this update is ruthless!

"If it's a man, you can't do it, Eros, it's the first time I've complained about your update, so let "Wuji Demon Dao" also be updated with 10,000 words every day like "Inch Mang"!"

………

The book review area is almost always like this, of course, there are also some sunspots to spray, but that's only a minority.

However, there is one thing that is rarely unanimous, that is, complaining about Li Ming's update.

Originally, some people thought that although Li Ming's new book is only two chapters now, Li Ming will be updated in 10,000 words in the future.

However, they were disappointed, there were really only those two chapters on the first day, and even the next few days were the same, the second watch that couldn't be thundered every day.

One shift at noon and one shift at night.

A few days later, they also learned that their hopes for a new book to be updated in 10,000 words a day like an old book may be in vain.

Accustomed to eating big meals, there are always people who can't stand eating steamed buns and pickles every day all of a sudden.

So at the beginning, some readers who were still diving also posted book reviews in the book review area, and they all collectively complained about the update of Li Ming's new book.

However, this time, Li Ming remembered Brother Hu's words to the death, so he only updated two chapters a day, and it didn't work to complain no matter how many book friends complained.

Don't worry about the complaints of book friends in the book review area, because Li Ming has more important things now.

It seems that since the signing of the new book, Li Ming's bad luck has been swept away, and people have been transferred.

He is now being contacted by a publisher to publish one of his novels.

In fact, he has been contacted by a publishing house for a long time, but today's one is the most sincere.

When "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" was serialized in Tianya, Li Ming had already considered such a day.

However, knowing the achievements of this novel, Li Ming will not consider it at all for those publishers who contacted Li Ming at the beginning to prepare to publish this book, but the conditions for publishing it were extremely poor.

Since last month, people have been contacting Li Ming in the middle of the world.

These people are all people from some small publishing houses, and they are all people who are optimistic about the publication prospects of the book "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".

However, even if they are optimistic, they are not sure what kind of results this book can achieve, so the conditions offered are extremely low, and in their consciousness, Li Ming, who wrote this book, is completely a newcomer, so the harsh conditions can be imagined.

The most demanding one was to prepare to pay thousands of yuan to buy the copyright of Li Ming's novel.

Although Li Ming's update in Tianya is very slow, until now, he has finished updating the first part of the novel.

The man actually bought out the first part of this novel for a few thousand dollars.

And according to that person's meaning, even this is the result of his hard work, so that Li Ming doesn't have to thank him too much.

At that time, Li Ming laughed angrily, and directly deleted the message sent by this person.

And the contact information provided by that person, Li Ming didn't even look at it.

In fact, for a novel that is only more than 100,000 yuan, the best buyout price given by some publishers to newcomers is really about five or six thousand yuan, and most of them are a few thousand yuan as the conditions offered by the person just now, but the content and tone of the message sent by the person just now are too annoying.

It seems that Li Ming came to beg him to publish, and he was able to publish Li Ming because he looked up to Li Ming, like a charity, which made Li Ming very unhappy.

And Li Ming knows that "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" has achieved good results.

There are still some left, and the conditions offered are better than that person, but they are also too good to be limited, so Li Ming did not contact them according to the contact information they provided.

Until now, several publishing houses have not given up, and the conditions in the messages sent to Li Ming are getting better and better.

But no matter how good the conditions are, there is always an end.

Until the end, only two people were left who kept sending messages to Li Ming.

One of them is a worker in a medium-sized publishing house, and he gave Li Ming a 10% royalty on the condition, and he also pointed out that Li Ming's novel can be written into a series later, hoping that Li Ming can consider them, if the first book achieves good results, then the next series of books can also give Li Ming better conditions.

For a moment, Li Ming was really moved, but after looking at the other person's conditions, Li Ming hesitated.

Although the terms offered by another person were not as good as this one's, only seven percent of the royalties were paid, but this person was a worker in a large publishing house.

Although this large publishing house is only at the bottom of the large publishing houses in the country, it has more resources than a medium-sized publishing house can have.

Li Ming wrote down the contact information of these two people separately and communicated with them.

The medium-sized publisher offered a 10 percent royalty, which seemed to be the limit of what they could offer, but they also put forward a very favorable condition for newcomers, that is, they accepted the buyout, and the price offered was also very good.

You must know that under normal circumstances, publishers prefer to share rather than buy out out out of risk aversion, not to mention that the buyout price they offer is not low.

I think they are really optimistic about the novel "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".

However, what they didn't expect was that Li Ming preferred to share for buyouts and shares.

The 10% royalty they offered was what really moved Li Ming.

Another large publishing house offered a 7% royalty and accepted buyouts, but the price was not as good as that of the previous medium-sized publishing house!

However, Li Ming was very tempted by the 7% royalty offered by this large publishing house.
