Lin Yi and Qiao Anbang are in a stalemate. Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Hearing the shouting in the house, Xu Zhiguo, executive vice president, pushed the door and walked in. The publishing house has now expanded, so Lao Xu has added the title of 'executive'.

The "Wasteland" trilogy, as well as "Grandma's Story", has been running all over the world for these books for half a year. A person who was originally polite and polite turned his skin red!

Lin Yi's two lives combined, are not as old as Xu Zhiguo. The traditional virtues of respecting the old and loving the young, he still has some in him. So it's a little embarrassing to see the other party working like this.

Lin Yi greeted warmly: "Lao Xu, do it quickly." Look at you, people are tanned. There are so many young people under your command, why don't you know how to use it, so you have to run it yourself?"

Lao Xu smiled calmly: "I am much older than Anbang, and I will retire in a few years." When that time comes, I just want to be busy, and I can't do it anymore. I'm in good shape now, and it's okay to run more. ”

"Moreover, the publishing house has not long been expanded, and those young people who have just come in are still very young and unfamiliar with the way. These lists are relatively large, and I don't feel comfortable handing them over. ”

The other party's professionalism has touched Lin Yi before, and he also thought about repaying the favor. As a result, I didn't expect that there were more than fifty people in the old age, and for his career, this world was running!

Without waiting for Lin Yi to finish thinking, Xu Zhiguo put on his glasses, opened the report and introduced: "I just came back from Taiwan, Ms. Qiong Yao's novel, the new contract has been negotiated. And for two of them, we got the rights to adapt the comics. ”

Qiao Anbang took over the topic: "It seems that the comic studio has to expand again." And the adaptation of romance novels, Cheng Moyang estimates that he can't grasp it, and he must recruit female painters. ”

When Lin Yi heard this, he complained to Qiao Anbang: "If the number of comic employees doubles again, you can set up a separate animation company! But it's good to take precautions, anyway, the cartoon plan will have to be carried out sooner or later." ”

After watching the boss, Vice President Xu continued: "The first part of the English version of "Wasteland" sold 250,000 copies in the United Kingdom and 350,000 copies in the United States. However, the latter was issued late, and the market is much larger than that of the UK, so there should be a lot of potential. ”

"Due to the good response from the market, both the French and German versions have been sold, and Spanish and Portuguese are being discussed. The total proceeds were $1.5 million. Lao Xu understands Lin Yi's character, so he didn't say too many details, and went straight to the answer.

But what comes next, that's the real point: "There are several film companies in Hollywood that have taken a fancy to the rights to adapt novels. Since the final sales volume has not yet been determined, it is not easy to talk about at this time. ”

There is no need to discuss this matter, Lin Yi made a decision directly: "The "Wasteland" series is a trilogy. It's better to wait until it's all released and see how influential it is, and then it's not too late to make a decision. ”

Xu Zhiguo wrote down Lin Yi's request on the document, and then continued to report: "The second part of "Wasteland" will be released simultaneously in the United Kingdom and the United States this month. As for the third part, the copyright you gave to Jenny. Although it is still released by us, the time has not yet been determined. ”

Lin Yi couldn't help but smile, although this income is not large, it is easy to earn. Moreover, the copyright of a book is enough to earn the author money for 70 years! No wonder Jin Yong and Qiong Yao later became billionaires.

Xu Zhiguo also smiled, but his excitement was for another thing: "Last month, "Grandma's Story" successfully signed a contract with Random House in the United States. ”

The other party commented that this book has great potential and is very promising, and it will be on the recommended list of the American Education Association! If it can be successful, it is not a dream to sell millions. Maybe it will become a regular seller in the United States!"

Lin Yi couldn't help but applaud. If he hadn't sat in a chair now, he couldn't help but dance!

There is no way not to be excited! The other achievements, somewhat of which are due to the foresight of the time-traveler. And the book "Grandma's Story" was discovered entirely because of his keen eye.

This is enough to prove that no one, including Lin Yi, is born with waste! Potential, anyone has it, it just depends on how you dig it.

========== dividing line ========

After dealing with the matter here, Lin Yi will leave the publishing house. But as soon as he walked to the door, he was stopped by Rodberg.

Asia Paradise Games, the new headquarters has not yet been decided. Therefore, Lin Yi's assistant is temporarily crowded in the publishing house and borrows a room here to work.

If it weren't for such a stop, Lin Yi would have been dizzy, maybe he would have forgotten the other party. He was a little apologetic in his heart, so his tone was very kind: "Mr. Rodberg, the document has been studied?"

Originally from Finland, Rodberg speaks English and Russian due to his geographical location. His original company is from France, and his work place is in Taipei, so French and Chinese are also OK.

Compared with ordinary employees, this is also a real scholar! That box of documents was actually read in two or three days.

However, Lin Yi has grown rapidly, and there is no need to be amazed at the abilities of others. Otherwise, as there are more and more students under him, I am afraid that I will not be amazed!

Rodberg, who entered the working state, put away his talent for breaking his mouth, and his language was concise and direct: "The RB branch has not yet been put into production, and the team over there has rich experience in the game industry, so for the time being, there is no need to allocate too much energy to pay attention." ”

"The Singapore branch has been in operation for two months. However, according to the information, the boss has not been there once. ”

The assistant summed up the main points of a box of documents in just two sentences. And the last sentence seems to imply doubts - boss, have you been a little slack recently?

A person who likes challenges definitely doesn't want his boss to be a mediocre person. And only hard-working people can usually get rid of mediocrity.

Recently, Lin Yi has been busy proposing marriage and getting married, and it is inevitable that he will delay his work. However, when he heard the last sentence, he did not have any displeasure, but appreciated the other party even more.

The 'pot' of the Asian Paradise Game, Lin Yi's original plan was to throw it to Rodberg. So this assistant gentleman, the more shrewd and capable, the more assured the boss is!

Lin Yi stared at each other's eyes, and said in a sincere tone: "On the 8th of next month, I will get married, and I really can't spare time." So as my assistant, I'm afraid I have to rely on you for important matters in the near future!"

This is trust, but also a challenge. So when he heard the boss's words, Rodberg immediately became overjoyed.

The first directive: "First of all, Asia Paradise Company, which needs to form its Hong Kong headquarters." You are not familiar with life here, so when you encounter problems, you can go to Qiao Anbang for advice. ”

Lin Yi stretched out his thumb and nodded to the president's office, and then continued: "After building the headquarters skeleton, you send someone to the RB joint." Then, as my correspondent, you personally went to Singapore to inspect and write a report to me afterwards. ”

After giving the order, Lin Yi signed a large check, took his Hong Kong business card, and handed it to Mr. Assistant: "There is indeed a problem that cannot be solved, you can call me." ”

Rodberg put away the check and business card, and then handed over a report: "This is the financial report of the American Paradise Games Company, last month, and I asked it to pass it on to the boss." It said that there was a plan in it, and the boss had to sign it for confirmation. ”
