Chapter 824: There is no limit to making gold [One Update]

Things are in a uproar, and Tan Lin is willing to be the backstabber, because today's "Fantasy Era" is seeking development.

The monthly sales are stable at more than 3 million copies, and there are many works that I want to publish in each issue, but due to the limited space, the number of pages is increasing again and again, but I still can't publish all the works!

Many excellent ones were postponed one by one in this way, and Tan Lin was a little worried.

Many magazines like Fantasy Times are monthly, but he feels that the conditions are basically ripe for them to become semi-monthly.

Lin Han's "2001: A Space Odyssey" is the catalyst and sales guarantee, and now the editors in the magazine are ready, and there is no need to worry about the work!

In fact, writers put their works in a magazine and serialize them for nothing more than money and fame.

Now that the sales of "Fantasy Times" have increased significantly, and it is favored by advertisers, the magazine is naturally much more generous after it has money, and there is no ambiguity in the manuscript fee, and the prices given are basically the top level in the industry.

At the same time, these works can get more readers' attention on "Fantasy Times", which is very helpful for both publication and adaptation!

Not every writer can earn $100 million a year in royalties like Lin Han, and many of them actually live on their manuscript pay.

So this kind of high-cost, well-known platform is very popular, and now the competition of "Fantasy Times" is very large, as long as it can be published in this magazine, then it will be reprinted by another series of magazines, and the publisher will take the initiative to contact!

From a monthly magazine to a semi-monthly magazine, the biggest benefit for the magazine is that it can make more money.

Nowadays, many magazines do not make money by selling magazines, even for "Fantasy Times", it can sell 3 million copies a month, but after deducting various expenses, it can barely break even, and the real profit comes from the advertising placed by advertisers!

A semi-monthly magazine means that you can run two ads a month and accept more advertisers.

Originally, Tan Lin had always wanted to start this plan, but he was afraid that the gains outweighed the losses, but now that everyone knows that Lin Han's new book is going to be serialized in their magazine, let's launch it while the iron is hot.

I believe that those advertisers are not stupid, with Lin Han's cheering, there is almost no possibility of this semi-monthly magazine hitting the street!

Who doesn't know that in May, after "Science Fiction World" got Lin Han's short story "Morning News", it swept away the haze of the past year or two, and its sales increased by nearly seven or eight times.

It's just that now June has arrived, and without the blessing of Lin Han's new book, it has been beaten back to its original shape, and there is no trace of it on the sales list.

The short story still has such a strong impact, let alone a long story linked to space, Tan Lin has already thought about how much to increase the advertising price while humming a little song!

"Money cow, money tree, Lin Han is really a real cash cow."

Tan Lin couldn't help but sigh with emotion, this year's operating income will definitely be very bright, maybe the follow-up plan can start slowly.

Step by step, no one would have imagined that the magazine that was once suspended would now be getting better and better!

……

Just after Children's Day, Yan Liwei once again pretended to be a child who had passed the festival, and he stood outside the yellow line of the subway with a new copy of "Fantasy Era" waiting for the train.

"Why is there a word on the cover of June today, could it be that there is another June?"

Yan Liwei muttered to himself, he turned the first page of the magazine, and saw the official notice printed on it.

"Dear readers and friends, due to the recent increase in the number of contributions to this magazine, the influence of the magazine continues to expand, the publication cycle of one issue per month has been unable to meet the needs of the majority of authors and friends to submit and publish, after the research of the editorial department, it is now approved by the Yanjing Municipal Bureau of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television, from June 2018 to June 2018, "Fantasy Times" has been changed from a monthly magazine to a semi-monthly magazine, with a total of 24 issues throughout the year, each issue is not less than 100 pages. At the same time, Lin Han's latest masterpiece "2001: A Space Odyssey" will be published in "Fantasy Age" in mid-June, so stay tuned! ”

"It's long overdue to be revised, how can such a book be released every month." Yan Liwei couldn't help laughing, it was just an extra five or six yuan per month, which was not a big number.

But for people like him who like to read, it is excellent news, and he is worried that he will have a shortage of books every month.

In the past, Yan Liwei had books to read in the first half of the month, and he finished reading the contents of the whole month's magazine in the first ten days, and then he waited and waited for the next month!

Now there are at least the second half of the month to read, not to mention the middle of June can also see Lin Han's new works, the physical book will not be available until July and August, but the specific content only needs another week to be viewed on "Fantasy Age", what reason is there not to buy?

When the subway was whistling by, Yan Liwei sat on a chair with a magazine, reading calmly, deaf to the constant sound of the newspaper station in his ears, and he didn't know which station he was sitting on.

……

"Tan Lin is really a good person, this kind of good resources can be obtained, and their performance will definitely rise in the second half of the year."

In the Science Fiction World Magazine, Zhang Zhenfeng's tone was a little sour, obviously the situation was the other way around, his magazine was in full swing, and the fantasy world was suspended.

But I don't know when, the situation on both sides has been reversed, and the fantasy era has become a semi-monthly magazine, and it is developing better and better!

The other editor leaned lazily on the back of his chair and said, "What's so strange about this, it's not a secret that Lin Han is a shareholder in the fantasy era." If he doesn't give the space odyssey to the Age of Fantasy, can he still give it to us? ”

Zhang Zhenfeng seemed to have eaten dynamite, and it burned casually, "Old Wu, what do you mean?" Our science fiction world is no worse than the fantasy era. Do you want to be like Chen Chuhe, jumping ship to fantasy times? ”

Wu Juncheng has been an editor in the science fiction world for more than 20 years, and he is not the character of Chen Chuhe, a good gentleman, "It's your business." Zhang Zhenfeng, you are like a rat in the editorial department, ruining our whole pot of porridge! I'll just say it and I'll make you high. Tided? It's just a mad dog, and it bites anyone you meet. ”

Zhang Zhenfeng is not a leading cadre, although he has a background and backstage, but Wu Juncheng also has it, he can't get used to Zhang Zhenfeng for a long time, he has no ability to do things, and he likes to play a little office struggle, which makes him miserable.

"If I'm rat dung, you're elephant dung. Co-authored with our magazine's sales are getting lower and lower, is it because of me? You have the ability to be like Chen Chuhe, hold a Lin Han out, if you can hold it out, I can kneel down and sing to conquer. It's a pity that you don't have the strength or the luck, so you can only watch others ......"

"Enough!"

Editor-in-chief Zhou Yonghao walked over with a blue face, and he scolded: "Are you two like this? During working hours, I scolded and scolded in the office, and and came out. The rest of the magazines do theirs, we do our own, what is there to talk about. Both of you have listened to me, and the next time I hear a quarrel in the office, both of you will clean up and leave for me, just pay two people less salary, I said and did! ”

Wu Juncheng and Zhang Zhenfeng were like mice seeing cats, they immediately wilted, lowered their heads and didn't dare to speak.

The move of "Fantasy Age" actually caused contradictions within the competitors, which was probably unexpected by everyone!

……

In fact, as early as after Tan Lin finished reading Lin Han's "2001: A Space Odyssey", he put forward the plan, and when it was discussed in the editorial department, almost no one objected.

The staff directly took out Lin Han's name and said that Lin Han would serialize six new books in the "Fantasy Era" next, and those merchants almost did not make any bargaining, and they were very bold in paying for advertising space!

Even when the fantasy era spread the news, some merchants who had never cooperated with them also came to inquire, and the price rose again and again.

Last month, the product placement advertising revenue of "Fantasy Era" was about 3.8 million yuan, and this month, thanks to the doubling of advertising space and the price increase, the advertising revenue reached 9.2 million yuan!

Those merchants definitely spent a lot of money, and now the popularity of the fantasy era has almost topped the list of periodicals and magazines, and it can sell three million copies, plus Lin Han's magic weapon to win, it doesn't seem to be difficult to break through five million copies.

This data also allowed the fantasy era to surpass many old media in one fell swoop, such as What Fashion Yiren, Ruili Fashion, World Fashion Garden, Harper's Bazaar, Finance, Fortune Chinese Edition, Sanlian Life Weekly, CBN Weekly and many other magazines failed to sell so much money in a single month!

With so much advertising revenue in a month, Tan Lin felt a little incredible, and he made too much money.

Advertising revenue alone is likely to exceed 100 million this year, not to mention the sales of magazines, and the development of the fantasy era is so dazzling that people secretly marvel at it, which is completely a commercial miracle!

Lin Han didn't expect that he had invested so much at the beginning, and occupying 20% of the shares would bring him so much income, and now he regrets it a little.

Anyway, there was money at that time, so why not invest a little more!

Now Li Wenyuan is probably going to faint at home with laughter, when he was called a pick-up man by industry insiders, he bought the discontinued "Fantasy Times" with enthusiasm, everyone thought that he was going to lose all his money, but now he was slapped in the face by reality.

The magazine bought by millions of yuan is now more than 100 million yuan in advertising revenue a year, and the return on investment is simply breaking through the sky!
