It's just that he never thought of it. Today's success was just the beginning for him, and a few days later, a stranger knocked on Brown's door, "Sorry, excuse me." I'm a department manager at Universal Pictures, excuse me, are you Mr. Brown? ”

"Yes, I am."

"That's right, we at Universal think that your work The Da Vinci Code is very suitable for adaptation into a movie, may I ask, is the film and television copyright of your work still there?"

"In my hands."

Yes, how could it not be?

At this time, Brown, he even had some disbelief.

's own novel actually attracted the attention of Universal Film and Television. You know, Universal Pictures is one of the eight major Hollywood studios. Like the world-famous Jurassic Park, King Kong ...... and other works, which are from Universal Pictures. However, in the past, Brown, they dreamed that these film and television companies would look at their works.

Because, for the author. The adaptation of the work into a film and television drama will have a huge role in promoting both the writer's fame and the writer's income. It's just that when the current head of Universal Film and Television arrived, Brown couldn't believe it.

Is this really a global company?

After confirming the other party's identity several times, Brown finally chose to believe it. This kind of thing, it is impossible to deceive. Even if it is a lie, after he leaves, he can call Universal Film and Television with a phone call to confirm it. Then, in a series of conversations, Brown saw off the Universal Pictures visitor.

And, in the days that followed, Brown officially signed a contract with Universal Pictures.

Of course, affected by this, several publishing companies that Brown had previously accepted also offered Brown high publishing prices. Even, some companies even signed royalties of more than 30% in order to pull Brown. This kind of tax rate, in general, can only be obtained by some top celebrities.

Just like Rowling.

Unexpectedly, under the publication of the online platform, Brown was careless, and his works got the attention of the world.

It's a platform full of wonders and a lot of opportunities.

Decades later, looking back, Brown will always sigh at this sentence.

Of course, in fact, there are many, many more in the world that are similar to Brown. It's just that Brown's works are more representative. Even, under the annual Global Literature Award, Brown's Da Vinci Code almost surpassed Harry Potter's Rowling, and even could compete with "Chen Jiayi", the creator of online literature and the top god of online literature.

So far, online literature has entered a new peak under the promotion of wireless reading on mobile phones.

Many author friends have entered and written one classic after another. Even those traditional writers have transferred their works to online literature websites. Because, publishing a work on an online literary platform has a greater chance of getting the attention of others.

After all, in the case of physical publishing, it will take too long and the results will be the slowest.

At the same time, there are a lot of editorial reviews for physical publishing and the like. Often, there are some relatively good works. Because of the editor's personal preference, it was not promoted. Moreover, there is no chance of publication. Even, even if the author is denied by the publisher, they have no way to refute it.

After all, if it's not published, it means that no one reads it. No one reads it, and no matter how well your book is written, it's just wishful thinking. Moreover, the more people who feel that they write well, the worse they write. However, this is not the same in the context of online platforms.

An online platform that billions of people around the world can follow.

It's impossible for your work to be uploaded on it without being noticed. Even if these people just clicked casually, or slapped soy sauce, a passerby. But if your work of fiction can appeal to him. Then, he will stop and read your work. …,

At this time, then, in the eyes of thousands of readers, you can tell whether your work is good or bad.

Because, only between the trade-offs of thousands of readers, can we know how good a work is. If they will collect your work, then your work is worth reading. If they just glanced at it, they flashed away. Then, you say, how classic your work is, others will not believe it.

Therefore, at this time, countless friends who have been buried with talents, countless classic works that have not been discovered. is because it is in the online literature platform, so it appears in front of the public. And, exude countless brilliance.

At this time, from time to time, there are media around the world praising the importance of online literature platforms. They claim that the online literature platform is a platform for the global public and a platform for all authors' friends. In this platform, no matter what your identity is, no matter what your academic background is, and no matter how good your pen is. As long as you can write, you can write, then you can write your own novels.

This is a place where literature is truly performed, and it is a platform that has no authority and belongs to the common people.

At the same time, it is also a platform for everyone in the world to read to their heart's content, without any restrictions.

We are enjoying the spiritual enjoyment brought to us by the online literature platform.

……

A series of reports have made literature stand at the highest peak of literature again and again.

However, Chen Jiayi's e-reading strategy is far from over.

Mobile phone wireless reading, just a kind of electronic reading, in fact, he can also be subdivided.

E-readers, for example, are one of them.

E-reader, at present, is a new technology product, and there is no manufacturer in the world doing it. But such a product, his market, has grown larger and larger. Although it is not as good as the computer market, because e-readers are simple to manufacture, they do not require much cost. Therefore, e-readers have also developed at a rapid pace in later generations. Moreover, many white-collar workers will choose to buy.

Perhaps, you will say, we have mobile phones to read, why choose e-readers.

In fact, an e-reader is an electronic product that reads text. At the same time, he was able to access the Internet and do some other things. However, he is much less interesting than a mobile phone, he is more boring than a computer. There is no reason why he will have such a big market for this kind of e-reader.

However, Chen Jiayi will tell you that e-readers have an advantage, which these electronic products do not have.

This advantage, that is, the e-reader, he does not hurt the eyes.

Generally speaking, later generations of e-readers used a "e-ink" technology, which was intended to mimic the technology of printing traditional paper books. Compared to the electronic screen such as the LCD monitor, the screen of the e-reader will feel like reading a book normally, and it will not hurt your eyes.

Moreover, e-readers are professional reading software. In addition to providing more common txt, chm and other text formats, he can support the software format of all electronic products. Like pdf, doc...... Category 1.

At the same time, e-readers have the same function as reading books on a regular basis. He can enlarge the text and, in the process of reading the book, annotate the text. It's like when I usually look through the works, because I am influenced by the works, I have some understanding. For fear of forgetting, I wrote it down here.

These are all mobile phones, as well as computers...... etc., electronics, there is no function.

Therefore, under the protection of eyesight and better reading, e-readers have also come out with the trend. Moreover, this kind of electronic product for global users has quickly been loved by many white-collar workers.

Of course, perhaps you will say that such electronic products, how much money does he have. …,

If it's cheap, IT companies won't make a profit, but if it's expensive, no one will buy it. However, a look at the records of the afterlife. Actually, this kind of e-reader, their price is not low. The general price is above $200. Even, more well-known brands. For example, the Kindle launched by "Amazon" in later generations was priced above $500 at the beginning.

At $500, it's almost the equivalent of a computer.

However, at a price of $500, these manufacturers make far more profit than computers. Moreover, in China, where e-readers are not very developed, he can sell about 10 million units a year. Not to mention, it is even more eye-catching for the booming market of e-readers in Europe and the United States.

These are all future information.

At this time, there is no such product in the market.

Even, when Chen Jiayi introduced this product to Luo Li, he also explained it repeatedly.

"Okay, Luo Li, this is a professional reading electronic device that protects people's eyes."

At this time, Chen Jia has always been the person in charge of the computer in the Tang Dynasty, Luo Li said.

"Protecting people's eyes?"

Is this necessary?

Even if Luo Li's ability is good, he doesn't have much feeling before this future product.

"Yes, it's to protect your eyes."

"Just for the sake of eye protection and professional reading, the market may be small."

At this time, Luo Li raised his own questions.

"Yes, the market is not as big as a computer, or even a tablet that we are developing. However, he is not small at all. You know, in this age of technology. More and more people have become more conscious of their physical and mental health, just as we used to use CRT displays, but now they have been replaced by LCD liquid crystal displays. To a certain extent, the LCD is also to protect the eyes......"

In this world, especially for those urban white-collar workers. What they have is money, and they enjoy this kind of electronic technology. Not to mention, in markets like Europe and the United States. It is believed that such an e-reader will definitely become another technological product like the iPod in later generations.

"Mr. Chen, you have a lot of truth. However, it seems that we can't set a high price on this price. ”

Luo Li had one last question.

"Haha, the pricing is better set."

Chen Jia burst out laughing.

"Oh, Mr. Chen, what do you mean, how much?"

"Well...... this"

Imagine the price of e-readers in later generations.

Although the technology of this product is not high, the price of e-readers is still relatively high before the tablet computer comes out. Even after the tablet came out, the e-reader had a certain decline. However, there are some well-known brands of e-readers that also maintain a high price.

However, Chen Jiayi seems to want to make a joke. said to Luo Li, "How much price do you think?" ”

"500, I think, 500 is a good price."

Even if it is 500 yuan, Luo Li believes that he will also make money. After all, this kind of product is just an LCD monitor, plus a technology to protect the eyes, and at the same time, plus some display software and the like, it does not require much technology. Moreover, under 500 yuan, they still have ......

"Hehe, I also think 500 is good."

"Okay, then, this price is around 500."

Hearing Chen Jiayi's nod, Luo Li also breathed a sigh of relief. However, without waiting for Luo Li to think about anything else, Chen Jiayi said again, "Okay, $500, it seems to be a good price......"

"Ah, $500."

"Of course it's 500 US dollars, if it's 500 yuan, what will our Tang Dynasty company do?" ..., 500 RMB, although you also have to earn, but how much can you earn?

What can make Chen Jia come out of the horse, without 10 billion earnings, it is impossible for him to come in.

"It's just, $500, will anyone buy it?"

"Why didn't you buy it? You must know that Apple's new generation of iPod, that is, smart electronic devices that do not have mobile phone call function and cannot access the Internet, his price is more than $500. Why, our e-reader, he doesn't sell for $500? ”

Now the brand of Tang Dynasty Company, after a series of operations, has gradually surpassed Apple and become the most valuable brand in the world. Chen Jiayi knows this clearly. It would be a mistake not to make a fortune with your own brand.

And, have you ever heard of top companies selling cheap things?

No, there is none.

Even if they knew that such a thing was not worth the price. However, they are likewise not going to cut prices. Because, for them, their brand is already worth hundreds of dollars. Why, are they going down? And a considerable number of users buy their products, also to buy a brand.

Anyway, this kind of thing is all about making money from rich people, not making hard-earned money.

If you don't set a high price, how can you do it?

A word woke up Luo Li.

In Luo Li's eyes, this president is very murderous and very ......

In this way, this matter is temporarily attributed to the Tang Dynasty computer. In the future, we will see how we do and then set up a branch. After speaking, Chen Jiayi was about to leave. However, then, I woke up at once, "Yes, there is one more thing I almost forgot, this e-reading market, you can notify Lenovo." ”

Last time I got IBM PC technology back from Lenovo, although this is also a buy. However, this is coercion. If you really want to say that you want to coerce other countries, Chen Jia didn't frown at all. However, with the current strength of the Tang Dynasty Company, coercing domestic enterprises made Chen Jiayi a little embarrassed.

Of course, the meaning of this notice Lenovo is also very clear, that is, to let Lenovo also enter the e-reading market.

After all, for this market, although it is not as big as the computer market, the profits are still very considerable. Especially, e-book reading is now popular. Europe, the United States, Japan and South Korea have great demand, and it is impossible for Tang Dynasty companies to occupy all the markets. Well, like a mobile phone. Let yourself master the high-end ones, and give them to Lenovo for the low-end ones...... and other enterprises, which can be regarded as curbing the entry of other European and American companies.

This is also Chen Jiayi's way of doing business all along.

market, he will never eat it all alone, at the very least, he will keep the soup.

Of course, it is a domestic enterprise that is united with itself.

"This ......"

When it was said that after notifying Lenovo, Luo Li was a little surprised. Only, after a while. Thinking of the operation strategy of the Tang Dynasty company, I also let go a lot.

"Okay."

After all, I am far from the president.

For example, in this market, even if Luo Li himself knows that he can't grab all the markets. However, his strategy is still to grab as much as he can, and he will definitely not inform others. However, Chen Jiayi is different. Instead, he was generous and handed over the rest of the market to others.

Perhaps, this is also one of the key reasons why Tang Dynasty has always been able to become the hegemon of the Internet.

……

Lenovo Corporation.

After Lenovo was forced by Chen Jiayi to hand over IBM personal computer technology. Tang Dynasty Computer uses this computer technology to integrate into various Internet products of Tang Dynasty Company. In addition, the Tang Dynasty operating system was slightly upgraded. In this way, a combination of hardware and software was created - the Tang Dynasty computer.

In a short period of time, Tang Dynasty computers have been sold well.

Fortunately, the main battlefield of computers in the Tang Dynasty was placed in Europe and the United States, which put foreign computer brands under great pressure. However, domestic computer brands have also been affected. Fortunately, this effect is not very large, after all, the price of Tang Dynasty computers is more expensive than domestic computer brands.

However, even so, Yang Yuanqing, CEO of Lenovo Computer, is sweating in his heart.

If Chen Jia put the main battlefield of the Tang Dynasty computer in China on a whim, then it is estimated that all Lenovo computers, Tsinghua Tongfang, and Shenzhou will be wiped out. Therefore, in the past few days, Yang Yuanqing has also been thinking about whether his original decision was right.

It's just that Tang Dynasty Company is Tang Dynasty Company, and he has never let others down.

When Luo Li came to Lenovo, an e-reader product was instantly pushed out.

E-readers?

Is there a market?

Is there no market?

If Lenovo just went in alone, perhaps, he would have been hesitant. However, the Tang Dynasty company has already begun, so what is Lenovo hesitating about. When did the Tang Dynasty company make a loss-making transaction?

At this point, Lenovo followed the steps of the Tang Dynasty Company and began to secretly develop the latest technological product - e-reader.
