Chapter 69: Anticlimactic
This kind of weather is covered with a new thick quilt, hiding in the quilt, it is also a rare enjoyment, if there can be a little beauty to warm the quilt, then this small day is also a rare relaxed leisure, but unfortunately the little beauty let Wu can wait all night and did not enter his quilt, after being woken up by the alarm clock in the morning, even a lazy sleep, such a simple wish can not be satisfied, brave the cold air had to climb out of the quilt, autumn is about to pass, today is already November 2nd, unconsciously, it has been two months since the start of school.

Wu Neng couldn't help but be glad that he had just bought thick clothes for Yanzi, otherwise it would be cold enough, and he was also a person with a girlfriend, so Wu Neng got up beautifully.
Yanzi generally gets up a little earlier than Wu Neng, breakfast is generally solved at Zhou You's house, Zhou You's mother gets up every morning to cook porridge, sometimes noodles, sometimes fritters and buns, Wu Neng and Yanzi are also stained, you can eat a rich breakfast for only one dollar a day, Wu Neng doesn't care about these little money anymore, the food expenses that should be given every day are a lot of each other, this excellent cooperative relationship makes both parties satisfied.
After cleaning up, the three of them returned to school before and after, as soon as they arrived at the school, Wu Neng felt that there was an inexplicable temperature in such a cold weather today, and as soon as he entered the school gate, he met many classmates pointing at him, and his eyes were hot.
Wu Neng secretly guessed in his heart, "Do you have flowers on your face today?" couldn't help touching this handsome face and muttering to himself.
After arriving in the classroom, he was surrounded by enthusiastic classmates, this inquiry, Wu Neng was speechless, it turned out that his magazine was distributed, and when he arrived in the dormitory, this group of guys took it out to show off, and as a result, he was played well, and the relationship was iron, all of them were "borrowed" away, and the next day he naturally wanted to ask Wu Neng for it, and Wu Neng also made a difficulty.
Originally, the magazine he engaged in this time was a manifestation of immaturity, first of all, he didn't think about the problem of return at all, you want these students to spend five yuan to buy this magazine, it is estimated that the sales will hit the street properly, if you just follow them, everyone in the school will send it, Wu Neng feels a little wasteful, and Wu Neng now also feels that his original idea is a little naïve, and he can only try the market in the school, but he can only be a meat bun and a dog, and the idea of never going back.
"First, these students have no financial ability to try out the real sales of this magazine, and second, these students themselves usually read few extracurricular books, as long as the articles are not particularly bad, everyone thinks it is good, this is completely impossible to try the real quality of this magazine, everyone says that it is good, not necessarily really good, but they have never seen it really good. ”
What Wu Neng didn't expect was that at noon, Yang Guangrong found him, hoping that Wu could distribute the magazine to the teachers and students of the school, this magazine did cause a strong response in the school, many classes in the first year of junior high school did not get a few copies at all, which strongly aroused the dissatisfaction of the students, and also drove those class teachers to Yang Guangrong to complain, although they only knew that this magazine was printed by Wu Neng, but this magazine was written as a school magazine, and the school magazine did not need money before, so it should not be money, right?
As for the rest, they managed so much there, Wu Neng was also a little depressed, but he still followed Yang Guangrong's suggestion to keep the remaining 300 magazines except for himself as a sauvenir, and distributed all the others.
For several days, the school was discussing this magazine and related topics, many students were eager to submit articles in the next issue, and for several days they were asking Wu Neng when he would do the next issue, Wu Neng began to implicitly say that he didn't want to do the next issue, but in the end he was annoyed by the question, and Wu Neng directly stated that he would not do the next issue of the school magazine.
This matter was naturally hotly discussed by the students again, but unfortunately Wu Neng didn't care so much, and what he wanted to do now was naturally an industry that he hoped would make money.
On Tuesday, Wu Neng went to the printing house to pay off the 900 yuan owed, and then discussed with Ding Zihua and the others how to publish books.
Ding Zihua is already very familiar with the process of publishing books, including genuine and pirated books, he has channels, in fact, the so-called channel is to contact booksellers, booksellers contact publishing houses to get book numbers and then print, and then distribute goods to the whole country.
As for pirated books, it's even simpler, find a printing factory, low-quality printing will do, a genuine book is thirty yuan, a pirated novel can be bought for ten yuan, eight yuan, or even lower.
Wu Neng still preferred to engage in genuine distribution, so he asked Ding Zihua to help contact the bookseller.
In the afternoon of the same day, Wu Neng received news from Ding Zihua that the bookseller was coming.
When one by one holding the briefcase, the chubby young fat man ran to the printing factory to meet Wu Neng with a smile, and Wu Neng gave the first part of Zhou Kai's manuscript to the middle-aged fat man named Tian Kaiwen.
Tian Kaiwen spent half an hour reading the first few chapters and put away the manuscript, directly reported the conditions, printed 3,000 copies in the early stage, the royalty was 3%, the contract was signed, and the royalties were paid in one lump sum.
Wu Neng calculated with his head, if it was only 3 percent of the royalty, then he could only get 1,620 yuan in royalty manuscript fees?
Of course, Wu Neng couldn't agree to this, and began to bargain with the other party, Wu Neng couldn't imagine that this dead fat man looked smiling, but he never opened his mouth, and Wu Neng still had the biggest dissatisfaction, that is, only three thousand copies were printed.
Although it is said that when the contract is signed, it will be stated that if the book sells well, it will be reprinted, but the number of additional prints is only known to the bookseller, and he will say that there will be no additional printing at all, or that only a few hundred copies will be added.
Don't say that in this era of piracy is more awesome than the genuine version, even after 20 years, this kind of thing cannot be avoided, in this era, those books written by martial arts masters, the genuine version is estimated to be less than one million sales, or even less, and piracy can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys of the country, Wu Neng will not be so stupid to believe in a profiteer who specializes in this kind of business, if it is just for this manuscript fee of less than two thousand yuan, Wu Neng might as well not publish.
This is why Wu Neng was willing to agree to share the song writing with Zhang Tingting fifty-fifty, and later, even 64 shares, because he didn't understand the entertainment industry at all, even if he was 64 points, now he has 50,000 yuan.
If you go to sell songs by yourself, let alone whether you can sell them or not, even if you try your best to sell them, the value of twenty songs is estimated to be less than 50,000 yuan, and some things, before they have no value, even if they are priceless, others will treat you as garbage.
Wu Neng put away the manuscript, got up and prepared to leave, and Tian Kaiwen is a profiteer, Wu Neng really has nothing to talk about.
Tian Kaiwen saw Wu Neng get up, and hurriedly stood up and persuaded: "Classmate, classmate, don't go, the conditions are not satisfied, let's talk again!"
