Chapter 70: Refusal to Sign the Platinum Contract (Part 1)
"Eight hundred words? Actually, I don't know much about this traditional Chinese publishing, is this price appropriate? I really don't understand ......," Jiang Daoli replied.
Jiang Daoli really didn't know the concept of traditional Chinese publishing fees. He thought about it, he set 20,000 yuan, according to 3 cents per thousand words, 1,000 words is 600 yuan, it seems that the price given by this traditional Chinese publishing is a little higher, but publishing should be more expensive than electronic subscriptions, right!
"This publishing house is indeed very sincere, at that time they offered 500 words per 1,000 words, in fact, this price is already extremely generous. I raised the price to 800 with the mentality of giving it a try, and although I hesitated for a while, I finally agreed simply, and I can see that they are very optimistic about "The Return of the Great Sage", and they should think that your book can win the sales crown! Ha ha!. ”
"The manuscript fees for traditional Chinese publishing and simplified Chinese publishing cannot be compared, because there are so many people on Baodao, and although there are many people who read books, traditional Chinese is limited to readers in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, which is very small compared with the mainland. I estimate that if "The Return of the Great Sage" has a chance to be published in simplified Chinese in the future, the price should be more than 2000. ”
After reading Winnie's reply, Jiang Daoli understood that Baodao has a small population, and the sales of traditional Chinese publishing are only in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, so even if it is popular, the sales volume cannot be compared with the mainland, and this publishing house has paid a great price and sincerity for the price of 800 words per 1,000 words.
"Oh, then I don't have a problem with getting them published."
"Well, I'll reply to them, traditional publishing is based on an episode of 60,000 words, and now "The Return of the Great Sage" can be released to the fifth episode."
After a while, Winnie sent a negotiated message, and after showing the other party's electronic agreement to Jiang Daoli, Jiang Daoli felt that there was no problem and handed it over to Winnie to handle it.
Five episodes is 300,000 words, which is 240,000 yuan! There are still 200,000 after deducting taxes! This is definitely the largest payment he will ever receive!
Wrong...... Jiang Daoli suddenly remembered that he still had more than 200 alliance leaders, among which there were many local tyrants who rewarded thousands of yuan, and the most powerful Fang Alliance alone rewarded more than 100,000 yuan...... I'm afraid that this reward alone will cost seven or eight hundred thousand, right?
The contract he signed with the starting point is a sharing contract for ordinary signed authors, and the income such as reward subscriptions is divided fifty-fifty with the website, even so, this manuscript fee is also an astronomical amount for Jiang Daoli.
Thinking of the sharing agreement, Jiang Daoli was a little unhappy, but he heard that the starting point is a great god contract, which is a popular saying, officially called a platinum contract, and its signing objects are platinum writers, and the proportion of the share is more than this five or five points!
What he didn't expect was that Winnie sent another message.
"I almost forgot to tell you about traditional Chinese publishing, but the editorial department recognized the achievements of "The Return of the Great Sage" and decided to sign a platinum contract with you."
What do you really want to come...... Although Jiang Daoli was still thinking about the platinum contract just now, he would never have expected that this platinum contract would fall from the sky in the next second......
The author who signed the platinum contract of the starting point is no longer an ordinary author, in the official words of the starting point, the author who holds the great god covenant has already proved his strength just by relying on the four words of platinum writer. However, Jiang Daoli didn't think much of this sentence, isn't the domineering person who swiped the ticket also a platinum writer?
He typed on his keyboard and replied, "Platinum contract? Is it the one who signed the domineering? ”
"Yes, but you don't have to look at this platinum contract with colored glasses, the domineering ticket swiping is his personal behavior, and it has nothing to do with the starting point. You must know that the authors who signed a platinum contract at the starting point are just that in total, and the worst of them are also authors who earn millions a year, not to mention the top gods. ”
"Who's the top?" After the world was revised, Jiang Daoli also specialized in studying the current situation of the starting point, according to Vinnie's statement, then the current Tang family should be the top god in her mouth.
The Tang family is a must? Jiang Daoli didn't pay attention to it before, but when he thought of it at this time, he realized that this was clearly the third young man of the Tang family who had changed his name......
"The Tang family is definitely the top god of our current website, and the domineering was originally in this echelon, after this ticket swiping incident, he should break the contract and go to Zongheng. Now you know how precious platinum contracts are, right? The Tang family is still a member of the Chinese Writers Association! ”
As for it...... I know the platinum contract too...... But there's no need to instill in me the idea of how awesome this platinum contract is, right? Jiang Daoli didn't think it was anything at first, but after thinking about it, he felt that something was wrong, as if this platinum contract was a fire pit, and Winnie was lobbying herself to jump into it......
Thinking that the entire online literature circle kept repeating the two letters "IP" before the world was revised, Jiang Daoli's thinking suddenly came to fruition.
This platinum contract should not be ...... You also want to sign all your copyrights, right?
Because the sharing agreement signed by myself clearly states that it is all copyrights and revenue sharing.
Although there is no such thing as IP fever after the world has been revised, with a large amount of foreign capital intervening in the online literature market, Jiang Daoli can imagine the future of IP hotness.
If you sign a platinum contract with the starting point at this time, people will have all the copyrights of their own, and if their works are adapted into a movie game or something, they will give 10 million copyright fees, but they will only have 1 million in their own hands......
No, you have to ask about it! Otherwise, even if Winnie says the flower in her mouth, she can't sign it! Having made up his mind, Jiang Daoli began to type.
"How long does a platinum contract last? Is the contract only for electronic copyright? I mean, film and television adaptation rights, game adaptation rights, are these still in the hands of the author? ”
Winnie finished reading the message sent by Jiang Daoli, and after a glance at it, she frowned.
Isn't this a newcomer...... Why are you so shrewd...... Do you know all about adaptation rights? But she doesn't care much about it, because she doesn't know that the future of the online literary circle will be changed by the word IP.
"The duration is five years, and the platinum contract is signed with the same full copyright as the ordinary sharing agreement." Surprised to surprised, she had to reply to Jiang Daoli cautiously in terms of the reply to the contract question.
And so it was! After receiving Winnie's reply, Jiang Daoli's thoughts were confirmed.
At this time, even those businessmen who invest in the online literature circle only know that the intellectual property rights of the works will become the value trend of online literature works in the future, but no one would have thought that the future online literature circle will set off a bloody storm because of the word IP.
I have to praise the starting point, the starting point of the contract, but all the rights are signed! Although this may be an unconscious approach of the website, after the IP becomes popular, the copyright of a large number of works is in the hands of the starting point, and the starting point will make a lot of money!
As for the threat posed by other websites such as Zongheng to the starting point, once the IP fever is stirred up, it is no longer a threat.
Forehead...... Let's observe a three-minute silence for the platinums who signed the contract...... It's miserable to watch your work be adapted into something like this and that, and only get a fraction of the copyright fee...... Jiang Daoli thought with a thief smile.
"Then I won't sign it." He replied directly-
Special thanks to the reward for regretting letting go.,Today I still add a chapter.,Add more for regretting letting go of book friends.。
I would also like to thank other friends who have rewarded this book, because there are more people, so I won't write them all here.
