On the second day, when he saw Liu Ruolan, Li Ming secretly said Sure enough, this Liu Ruolan is indeed as young as he thought.

Although Liu Ruolan looks very capable in professional clothes, this can't hide the immaturity on her body at all.

Fortunately, in addition to Liu Ruolan, there was also a person from the publishing house where she worked this time, a middle-aged person.

In Li Ming's opinion, this middle-aged man looks much more reliable than Liu Ruolan at least on the surface.

"Hello! I guess you are Mr. Li Mingli! I am Shen Kun, and I am in charge of discussing the publication with Mr. Li this time. ”

"Hello! I'm Li Ming!"

"Mr. Li is really young and promising! When I was your age, I didn't have such achievements as Mr. Li, and I was ready to publish a novel!"

Li Ming was not fascinated by this Shen Kun's ecstasy soup, but just smiled humbly.

And Liu Ruolan, the beautiful and capable young woman next to Shen Kun, also stepped forward and stretched out her hand to introduce: "Hello! I'm Liu Ruolan!"

Li Ming immediately said: "Hello!

If it weren't for the feeling that Liu Ruolan gave him the feeling that he didn't understand anything and didn't have any scheming when he contacted him on the phone two times, maybe Li Ming would really be deceived by her capable outfit and think that this was a strong woman.

After a brief introduction, they began to talk.

In the process of talking, Li Ming also found that this time it was mainly this Shen Kun, mainly Li Ming and Shen Kun were talking, and Liu Ruolan was listening carefully on the side.

Of course, Liu Ruolan is not without saying a word, as long as Li Ming does not understand some places, and it is a common-sense question for the publishing house, it is generally answered by this Liu Ruolan.

As the time of conversation grew, Li Ming also felt the sincerity of Shen Kun and others.

When Liu Ruolan didn't sign in to the book "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", Li Ming immediately sued Liu Ruolan, saying that he still had an online novel "Cun Mang" in his hand, and asked Liu Ruolan's publishing house if she was interested.

At that time, Liu Ruolan had the attitude that something is better than nothing, and when she came down, she searched for the online novel "Cun Mang" on the Internet according to what Li Ming said.

Of course, she also has to look at the content.

Although it is not a history book in the style of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" that she likes, this is Liu Ruolan's first job since she entered the publishing house, and she is of course very interested.

After reading the novel, Liu Ruolan also consulted with several seniors who were also in the editorial department, and thought that this online novel "Cun Mang" could be published.

Even Liu Ruolan believes that this novel has achieved good results on the Internet and has a certain readership, and maybe these readers will become the first to buy physical books and novels in the future.

In this way, with the efforts of Liu Ruolan, the publishing house also approved a proposal to publish the book "Cun Mang".

As for Li Ming, she was already hopeless, but yesterday Liu Ruolan contacted him and said that her publishing house was preparing to publish his novel.

This made Li Ming pay a little attention.

After hanging up the phone with Liu Ruolan, Li Ming immediately began to check the information of the publishing house where Liu Ruolan worked.

Li Ming checked on the Internet first, and there was really information about this publishing house, of course, everything on the Internet was not necessarily accurate.

However, this publishing house happens to be in Gaoyang City, where he is located, and Li Ming can ask people here.

That night, Li Ming called Song Qian's uncle Song Jianjun, and Li Ming thought that Song Jianjun had been mixed in Gaoyang City for so many years, and he could be regarded as the head snake here.

Even if Song Jianjun is not very familiar with that publishing house, he definitely knows people who are familiar with this publishing house.

I have to say that Li Ming's call was really right.

Song Jianjun not only knows about this publishing house, but even knows one of the editors-in-chief of this publishing house.

That night, Li Ming and Song Jianjun chatted for a long time, and it was this chat that made Li Ming know a lot about this medium-sized publishing house called Sunshine Publishing House in Gaoyang City.

And he's not worried about it's a scam or anything.

Although this publishing house is not very famous and is only a medium-sized publishing house, it still has some reputation in Gaoyang City.

Although Li Ming also stayed in Gaoyang City for a long time in the past, he didn't know about this publishing house, because he had never paid attention to this aspect of things, and he didn't know about the Sunshine Publishing House in Gaoyang City.

Just like many people, when you go to a restaurant to eat, you don't necessarily know who is cooking the food, where the chef is, and where you learned your cooking skills.

Although Sunshine Publishing House is located in Gaoyang City, if one or two of the ten people in Gaoyang City know about this publishing house, it is a very good situation.

And Li Ming happens to be the one who doesn't know, and Song Jianjun happens to be the few people who know, and he knows a little more than the average person.

Li Ming and Shen Kun finally negotiated.

Although the conditions are far inferior to the conditions that Liu Ruolan opened at the beginning.

But you must know that that is Liu Ruolan's condition for the book "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".

And for the publication of online novels, this Sunshine Publishing House still has some doubts, if it weren't for Liu Ruolan's repeated insistence, maybe it wouldn't have opened the current conditions.

They offered an 8% royalty share, although there were also buyouts, but the price was very small, compared to the original conditions for the book "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", it can be said that it is very different.

Needless to say, Li Ming directly chose the royalty share.

Although piracy is rampant in this country, you end up with much less royalties than in countries and places where there is a strong sense of authenticity.

However, the royalty share is still better than the buyout.

Who is called Li Ming is still a newcomer, and the price of the buyout is really very small.

Of course, this little is for Li Ming, if it were someone else, he would have chosen to buy it out a long time ago.

However, because Li Ming has confidence in the novel, he believes that the price of the buyout is far less than the value generated by the novel itself.

If the buyout price really reached the point where Li Ming's heart was excited, then he would not hesitate to choose to buy out.

It took a lot of time for them to negotiate, and when both parties were finally satisfied, and the matter of publishing "Inch Mang" was decided and signed, and some other things were done, it was already a few days later.
