Chapter Seventy-Four: Attention, Enough Meaning
On the evening of February 24, Liu Jianping was sitting in front of the computer, revising his novel, when suddenly he heard a knock on the door. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Jianping, open the door, I'll talk to you for a few words." Zhu Fengnian shouted.
Liu Jianping stood up, walked to the door, and opened the bedroom door.
"Cousin, what's the matter?"
"A while ago, I didn't tell you, the blood-red "Dragon Battle Xingye" is about to be finished, and he began to write a new book, the title of the book "Evil Dragon Dao", which is a bit similar to "Shenglong Dao", the manuscript of 30,000 words in front of the new book, he sent it, I took a look, I feel good, I can sign a contract."
"With the strength of Blood Red, even if you don't read the manuscript of his new book, you can sign a contract."
"Well, if we can afford it, he wants to sell half of the rights."
Liu Jianping was slightly stunned, and asked curiously, "Did he make a bid?" ā
"Forty dollars per thousand words." Zhu Fengnian said, "I don't think it's expensive, as long as the book is published, whether it is published in the mainland or in the traditional Chinese version, we will be able to make money." ā
"Uh-" Liu Jianping pondered for a moment and said, "You can send me the manuscript of the new blood red book first, and after I read it, if I think it's okay, then we will bid 40 yuan per thousand words to buy half of the copyright of the book." ā
Zhu Fengnian asked with a smile: "Thirty thousand words, don't you think the number of words is a little less?" ā
Liu Jianping said in an affirmative tone: "Blood Red is not the kind of person who indiscriminately floods in order to make more money. ā
Zhu Fengnian smiled: "This is maybe. ā
"Forty yuan for 1,000 words, it's not expensive."
"He writes 300,000 words a month, playing the same, calculated at 40 yuan per 1,000 words, and the pre-tax manuscript fee is 12,000, which is a lot...... If a publishing house takes a fancy to it, publishes it, and sells well, it is not difficult to earn more than 50,000 yuan a month. ā
"I've told you everything." Liu Jianping quipped, "By the way, do you have any ideas for the book "Dragon Battles Xingye", Xuehong? ā
Zhu Fengnian was puzzled and asked, "What can he think?" ā
"Don't be in a hurry, after signing Xuehong's new book, I'll ask Boss Lan again, if Boss Lan is willing to publish "Dragon Battle Xingye", I will help Xuehong introduce it, if you can't sign the contract, talk to Xuehong, if he wants, we will buy all the copyrights of this book."
"Even if Boss Lan is reluctant to publish it, do you think this book can be published?"
"Whether a book can be published or not, not only depends on the quality of a book, I am optimistic about Xuehong, with his writing speed, and strength, he will definitely become a top online writer in the future, and he will become famous in the future, with the gimmick of Xuehong's first VIP signed work, there will be many publishers bidding to buy. Also, after the completion of "Dragon Wars Hoshino", if we can buy the copyright of this book, when users of Good Books Network subscribe to the VIP chapters of this novel in the future, they can subscribe in full, and we can give a preferential price, which can prompt readers to subscribe more. ā
"That's a good idea." Zhu Fengnian thought for a moment and continued, "We can also collect dozens of VIP chapters into one volume, and the VIP chapters of a book are divided into several volumes, and readers subscribe by volume. ā
"You're thinking better!" Liu Jianping said with a smile.
"Huh!" Zhu Fengnian smiled, "There's nothing else, I won't bother you writing a novel." ā
"By the way, cousin, let me tell you something, I opened a new book and saved a lot of manuscripts, this book, for you."
"No need, you want others to think that our Good Books Network has signed a lot of popular writers, you can create another pen name, you don't need to send mine, there is no need to be so troublesome."
"I think your screen name, Mount Everest View, sounds very emotional."
"I don't write novels, you want to use my screen name as your pen name, that's no problem, you can use whatever you want."
"Then I won't be polite to you, in the future, you can help me update the novel, create a group with your QQ, and help me communicate with readers more."
"You're welcome." Zhu Fengnian said with a smile.
"Who are we with?"
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm going to get busy, you log in to QQ immediately, and I'll send you the manuscript of the new book in blood red."
Liu Jianping spent more than ten minutes reading the manuscript sent to him by Zhu Fengnian, and after reading it, he deliberately found out the "Evil Dragon Dao" written by blood red in his previous life, and after comparison, he was surprised to find that the content of the two books was actually the same.
"In my previous life, Xuehong first wrote "Shenglong Dao", and then "Evil Dragon Dao", and now, I plagiarized "Shenglong Dao", but I didn't think that Xuehong could still write the same content as "Evil Dragon Dao", which is really amazing...... As long as the blood red is not irrigated, the book "Evil Dragon Dao" will definitely be published, and the price of 40 yuan per thousand words will buy half of the copyright, which is too low. ā
Liu Jianping muttered a few words to himself, thought for a while, stood up, and walked to the living room.
"Cousin, I've read the new book of blood red, it's pretty good, 40 yuan for 1,000 words, a little lower, add 10 yuan."
"Fifty dollars for a thousand words?" Zhu Fengnian frowned, "You can think clearly, Xuehong can write more than 300,000 words a month, and based on 300,000 words per month, the website needs to pay him 15,000 yuan a month. ā
"You can't just think about losing money, as long as we publish it, then we will make a lot of money."
"Even if I can publish, I won't make much money."
"Don't be stingy, buy half of the copyright for 50 yuan for 1,000 words, and that's it. You contact Blood Red as soon as possible, and if there is no problem on his side, you send him the contract and ask him to send the contract as soon as possible. ā
"You're the big boss, listen to you." Zhu Fengnian no longer objected, and smiled slightly, "I'll contact him now, he happens to be online." ā
"Then you're busy, I'll go back to the house and write a novel."
After finishing the conversation with Liu Jianping, Zhu Fengnian sat in front of the computer and sent a message to Xuehong.
Xuehong, who was writing a novel, received a message from Zhu Fengnian, and after reading it, a smile appeared on his face, he really didn't expect Zhu Fengnian to take the initiative to increase the price.
After laughing, Xuehong replied: "Lao Zhu, even if you don't increase the price, forty yuan for a thousand words, I will sign a contract with you." ā
"Doesn't that mean I value you?"
"Thank you. Well, is there a publishing house that wants to publish "Dragon Wars Hoshino"? ā
"Not for the time being, even if a publishing house wants to publish your book, it is to contact you, you have left your QQ group number on the Internet, and the people from the publishing house have read your book on the Internet, it is not difficult to contact you."
"Hey, it's good to be published."
"Don't worry, as long as you continue to write, your fame and popularity will continue to rise, and when you become famous, there will naturally be publishing houses rushing to publish your novel."
After Zhu Fengnian sent this message, he regretted it a little, Liu Jianping told him just now that he wanted to buy the copyright of the book "Dragon Battle Xingye".
"I hope this day will come soon, hehe, Lao Zhu, I agree to sign the contract."
"Okay, I'll send you the contract, after you read it, there's no problem, send it this morning."
When accepting the electronic document of the contract, Xuehong asked: "After the "Evil Dragon Dao" is put on the shelves, the VIP chapter is subscribed, and the subscription exceeds 5,000 parts, so can I share it?" ā
"Yes."
"With 5,000 subscriptions, it feels difficult to exceed this subscription."
"As the number of paying users continues to climb and your new book subscription exceeds 5,000, this possibility is still very high."
"If you want to get such good results, in addition to me writing novels well, I also have to recommend a lot of books from the good book network."
"Since "Dragon Battles Xingye" was serialized on the Good Book Network, do you think there are fewer recommendations from the Good Books Network?"
"No, you and Liu Gongzi are very interesting to me. Okay, let's not talk about it for now, I'll look at the contract first. ā
