Chapter 304: The rankings are still soaring
Chu Guoqing's words are not unreasonable. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Just like the Chinese entertainment industry in the previous life, all kinds of bad things are out of control after they are opened, and the salary of actors in the TV drama industry can increase dozens of times in ten years.
Around 06, if the actor's TV series salary could reach 100,000 yuan per episode, it would be called sky-high, which was incredible. But ten years later, it's only the price of third-tier stars, and top TV stars will even ask for millions of episodes.
Therefore, at this time and space, Chu Guoqing's accusations against Li Kuo and Xingdong Publishing House can be fully established.
However, how people do it is their business, and the improvement of many things is not achieved overnight, and it also has a deep social foundation.
The soaring salaries of actors in their previous lives are mainly due to the increase in people's income and the prosperity of the entertainment industry, which is fundamental.
Just like in the NBA, when you get a large number of TV contracts, the salary cap also increases dramatically, and a big contract of 30 million will appear on some players with very average statistics, and this is the overall situation.
So someone soon launched a rebuttal to Chu Guoqing: "Chu Lao's things are well written, but now I can only say that he is dizzy when commenting on the behavior of Xingdong Publishing House, in fact, this contract of Xingdong Publishing House is very suitable, Li Kuo has such value, so it is natural for him to get this kind of contract." It is true that this may lead some authors to pursue bigger contracts, but they must have the ability to do so first, otherwise the publisher is not stupid. ”
After such a rebuttal, there is now a bit of a sense of standing in line and spraying each other, and the two factions are still relatively distinct, and there is basically no chance of grass on the wall.
Now the positive news is that they feel that Xingdong Publishing House naturally has its own reason. And it's a commercial publishing house, and they're not going to do it without being sure they're making money.
The negative news is mainly focused on the fact that Xingdong Publishing House has taken a blind eye this time, and they feel that it will give some authors unrealistic illusions that they want to get bigger contracts.
Everyone mainly thinks that although Li Kuo's books are quite popular, but at this time and then, now all the contents of his books can be bought in newspapers, and the audience has basically read all the contents, so how can they buy the books?
The two points of view are constantly clashing and there are many collisions.
However, the content of these collisions is actually exactly what Xingdong Publishing House wants to see, and it naturally hopes that people will tear it up and make a big deal because of this matter.
Now the idea of Xingdong Publishing House is actually successful on the whole. After all, whether they support Xingdong Publishing House or not, they are all contributing to this matter and creating a topic.
Li Kuo himself did not actually participate in the copyright negotiations, after all, he still did not have much research on this thing, and no one else was professional, so it was still left to professional people to do.
He is also quite satisfied with this price, in fact, if it is "Chivalrous Travel" and "Tianya Mingyue Knife" that no one has seen, then he thinks that this price is far from enough, the problem is that these two books have been serialized, so he thinks this price is quite good.
After all, Xingdong Publishing House is relatively rich, and just after the contract was confirmed, the cash remuneration they need to pay has already been called, and after deducting a certain commission from "East Poster Literary Edition", Li Kuo can still get 400,000 yuan.
The publication and packaging of the two books are now on the agenda and are expected to be officially released in a month's time.
Li Kuo has now received hundreds of thousands, and his income this year is actually almost 10 million.
But he didn't actually write many books, and he still has the rights to several books in his hands, and it would definitely be a lot of money to sell them all.
In fact, Li Kuo's other books are now being scrambled by many people for both film and television copyrights and publishing copyrights, but most of them have not found a suitable object.
With the example of Xingdong Press, it is clear that other publishers will have to pay more to negotiate the price of these rights.
Of course, these also depend on the performance of Xingdong Publishing House in operating Li Kuo's two books this time. If the results of these two books hit the streets, then the publishers will naturally be less willing to go to the mines, and the prices will definitely drop.
These days, a lot of things are coming one after another.
At the annual author competition, something happened that made some people even more painful: Li Kuo's ranking has now reached the second place of newcomers, and the sixth place in the overall list!
This number can be said to be blinding.
But the reason is relatively simple, that is, the recent issue of "Speed Travel" has brought Li Kuo a great popularity bonus. With this popularity bonus, Li Kuo's points are getting higher and higher.
As a result, now in this annual author contest, Li Kuo's ranking is still growing.
So many people feel even more embarrassed, and they have begun to release works to fight hard.
But Li Kuo has just appeared, and he hasn't written a book, and this ranking has continued to grow.
Some people even feel that Li Kuo doesn't have to write anything now, and his ranking can directly become the king of newcomers!
That's the power of popularity.
Of course, on the newcomer list, there is only one author left before Li Kuo named Che Songming, his popularity is also very high, and his meager fans are close to one million, and it is obviously impossible for Li Kuo to defeat this person with popularity.
Li Kuo is still struggling with what he wants to use to fire the first shot of this annual author contest.
Because this contest is also held by the state after all, many things have a kind of specification, Li Kuo definitely can't use too low works to participate, nor can he use online novels or anything, it's better to use something with a compelling style as the first shot.
Li Kuo has been thinking about this problem, which also makes him feel a headache, his current problem is not that there is nothing to send, but because there are too many things, and they are all good things, so he doesn't know what to choose.
Li Kuo's thinking is understandable.
On this day, Li Kuo was practicing calligraphy at home.
Now this era is to spend money to do things, he spent a lot of money to practice calligraphy, and the level of teachers he found is indeed very high, although he has not practiced for a long time now, but it is no problem for ordinary people to feel that writing quite beautifully.
At this moment, Li Kuo's mobile phone on the table vibrate, and Li Kuo walked over to see that it was actually a call from Guo Jike.
Li Kuo was a little curious about what he was looking for him, and he also answered the phone.
"Brother Guo, I'm Li Kuo."
"Li Kuo, I haven't seen each other for some days, and a few of our friends are just going to get together in Zhonghai tonight, so if you have time, let's play together?" (To be continued.) )
