Chapter Fifty-Eight: Long Wen's Plans
That night, Sun Meijia excitedly told Yang Hao that the sales of the novel reached 100,000 copies on the first day, and the number of copies printed for the first time was 200,000 copies, and half of them were sold on the first day, and Yang Hao was also very happy. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Sun Meijia also told him that many bookstores had sold out and had ordered again, and she also notified the printing house to print 200,000 copies again, and increased continuous orders, in case sales were hot and there was no stock to buy.
In the following week, the Condor completely detonated the entire novel world, it sold nearly a million copies in seven days, breaking the record of a famous author, and the popularity of the novel continues, Sun Meijia has increased the number of prints many times, according to the current sales heat, at least it will continue for a while.
Now the whole Internet is talking about this matter, and various news media are also reporting it in capital letters.
Yang Hao, the mysterious author, has attracted even more attention, an unknown newcomer, the first novel can reach this achievement, which is jaw-dropping.
Yang Hao is very quiet, except for a few friends who keep calling, telling the surprise and congratulations in their hearts, and then there is the exclamation of Sun Meijia and Tang Yueying, he seems to be isolated from the world, staying in the dormitory, preparing for the third round of auditions the day after tomorrow, and picking out the songs to be used in the competition.
During this time, he made a lot of songs crazily, stored in the mobile hard drive, Yang Hao understood that his time would be very busy in the future, so he took advantage of this free time to make some preparations.
At the same time, in order to regulate his spirit, he stopped the production of songs from time to time, and coded some of the condor shooting, which should have been written to one-fifth.
However, when coding words, it is not as smooth as the Condor, Jin Dada quoted a lot of historical things in the Condor shooting, the historical background is very deep, and there are some poems, Yang Hao had to spend his brain to revise them, resulting in a lot of speed drops.
When Yang Hao was reassuring to follow his plan, Changyang, the editor of the Longwen Martial Arts Group, was called to his boss's office.
As soon as he walked into Fan Wen's office, Changyang saw that he was bowing his head to process the documents and sat down on the hospitality chair, Changyang asked, "Boss, is there anything wrong with me?" ”
Fan Wen didn't look up, still correcting the documents, and replied lightly: "I'll deal with these recommendation applications first, and I'll go to Mr. Deng with me later." ”
"Mr. Deng?"
Changyang wondered, how could the boss of the company summon him, he was just a small editor, and there were many layers between him and the boss.
Changyang was a little cranky for a while, and carefully recalled the work during this time, and there was nothing wrong with it, not to mention that even if it was wrong, it should be handled by Fan Wen, how could it be handled by the boss?
That happened at work, and I couldn't fight with my boss, so why did I have to see him by myself.
Soon Fan Wen took care of the matter, relaxed his fingers that had been holding the pen for a long time, and looked up to see Changyang's frowning brows, thinking about something in distress.
After thinking about it for a while, Fan Wen understood, and said funny: "Don't think about it, it should be a good thing, Mr. Deng called me on the phone, the tone was very natural, you should have heard of his temper, and he will be angry when he is angry." ”
Changyang said with a bitter face: "I can't help but think about it!" I have been in the company for so many years, I have only met Mr. Deng, and I have never spoken to him, and I suddenly asked me to meet him, and my heart was not steady. ”
Fan Wen shook his head, somewhat understanding Changyang, and said, "Okay, you'll know when you go." ”
Saying that, he picked up the document and took Changyang out of the office, handed the document to a staff member, and asked him to take it to the fantasy group, and then got on the elevator directly, and the two came to the outside of the general manager's office.
There was a knock on the door, and a rather majestic voice came from inside, "Come in." Changyang followed Fan Wen and walked in.
The office is about more than 100 square meters, but the decoration is very simple, on the left side of the door is the sofa for entertaining guests, opposite is a large desk, Longwen's boss is sitting in front of the desk, and there is a bookcase in front of the wall behind the desk.
Fan Wen walked in and said, "Mr. Deng, I brought Changyang, the editor of the martial arts group. ”
Changyang today is the first time to see his boss Deng Tao at close range, with a serious expression on his face, and his sharp eyes reveal a sense of wisdom, setting off the momentum of a superior.
Deng Tao turned out to be the development manager of a real estate company, and when online novels were just emerging, his keen eye told him that this was an opportunity, so he quit his enviable job and founded Longwen in the midst of opposition, and finally established Longwen as the largest online novel platform in China.
Deng Tao was very strict at work, but he was very tolerant of his subordinate employees, looked at Changyang with a harmonious smile, and said, "Hello, Changyang,." ”
"Mr. Deng, hello!" Changyang hurriedly replied, but he was secretly scolding himself in his heart, seeing that the boss was at a loss, he didn't say hello first.
Deng Tao pointed to the chair in front of them and said, "Sit, I came to you today mainly to understand one thing. ”
Fan Wen guessed a little in his heart and asked, "Is it the novel that has been selling very well recently?" ”
Earlier to find Yang Hao to sign a contract, because of the copyright did not negotiate, in order to win the novel, Fan Wen came to Deng Tao to explain the situation, and finally Deng Tao after reading the novel, although he felt very good, but he still didn't want to break the rules of the industry, he didn't agree to share the contract, but the price of the buyout contract was given to 300 yuan per thousand words, which is very high for a newcomer, but Yang Hao still didn't agree, and serialized it for free on the blog post, which made Deng Tao and Fan Wen cry out for pity.
And now that the novel has been published, they all know about the hot sales, and they are all frightened by the sales volume, if Yang Hao stayed, not to mention the impact of the novel, this benefit is very considerable.
What's more, there are several celebrities who are vigorously promoting it now, as well as the praise of Tie Lao, plus Bai Shuo jumped out to slander and lead to Yang Hao's poem, if this is published on Longwen, Longwen's prestige will definitely increase greatly, you must know that there is now a strong rising star who threatens Longwen at all times.
Deng Tao nodded, and Changyang understood at a glance that the purpose of the boss looking for him should be that he had contacted the author and wanted to ask him for some information.
Sure enough, Deng Tao asked: "Changyang, this author, have you been in contact with it later?" ”
Changyang said with some frustration: "I have been contacted, but he has not replied." ”
"Does he have any plans to open a new book?" Deng Tao continued to ask.
Changyang was always paying attention to Yang Hao's movements, and without hesitation, he said: "Yes, not long after the end of the Condor, he said that he would write a new book, which is a prequel to this novel, called "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", judging from the tips he released, it was written about Guo Jing's youth, and it also involved Yang Guo's father. ”
Deng Tao nodded again, he had also read this novel and knew who Changyang was talking about, and he himself was deeply attracted by the plot in the novel.
There was silence in the office, Fan Wen and Changyang looked at each other, they could see what Deng Tao was thinking, the expression on his face was very solemn, and he was thinking about something.
After a long time, Deng Tao's eyes were full of firmness and said: "Changyang, you go back immediately, no matter what method you use, you must contact this author and tell him that we can give him a share of the next novel and sign a contract, we can do without the copyright of film and television adaptation, and the rest needs to be divided according to industry rules, and the other division is 6:4, and we are six." ”
"Mr. Deng!"
Fan Wen and Changyang exclaimed, their hearts were extremely shocked, every industry has rules, it is not so easy to break it, and it is very easy to have a bad impact, and it will not even survive, which is also the reason why Long Wen refused Yang Hao's request in the first place.
If this signing condition is known by those old authors and god-level authors, I am afraid that it will set off a huge wave of provocation, and Long Wen may sink.
But now that Deng Tao wants to break him, Fan Wen and Changyang will of course be shocked.
Deng Tao ignored their surprise and said: "Changyang, you go first, you must contact the author, remember that no one can tell this signing condition except for the three of us and the author, if the other party agrees, I will draft the contract, and when the other party sends it, you have to pick it up in person and hand it over to Fan Wen in person, you can't fake it to others, understand?" ”
After speaking, Deng Tao was extremely serious, even stern, Changyang nodded his head to show that he understood, and then looked at Fan Wen, Changyang got up and walked quickly.
