"Mr. Yang, our publishing house is full of sincerity. "Jurassic Park" is selling well, but at this stage it has gradually shown signs of saturation. We're going to sign a second batch of print runs, purely just in case. But you must be well aware of the risks. ”

Yang Huan took a sip of coffee, which tasted good. The whole person is slow and methodical, and he seems to be relaxed. I can see that Stephen and the others are angry, but there is no way, who will let the initiative in the hands of this guy.

"Since the risk is too great, it is better to reduce the number of prints in the second batch. I don't need a figure as big as 25 million, or even 20 million, and my need is not big, and 10 million is about the same. Even five million, three million will do. ”

These words made Stephen and Thomas dumbfounded, Yang Huan's attitude was to make it clear that he was willing to affect the sales figures, and he didn't want to sell it cheaply.

The sale of any commodity, once out of stock, will still have a great impact. The so-called hunger marketing is not such a direct method as running out of stock, but controlling the amount of sales, and then further promoting the goods.

But "Jurassic Park" is no longer needed, it has now passed its peak, and although there will be a lot of sales in the future, it is not something that can be completed in a short period of time.

At such a time, once it is out of stock, it may make the customers who buy ** directly cut off their interest in buying books.

This has a big impact, and the publisher is nothing more than making less money, but for the author, it is a huge loss.

The author has a huge influence on the sales of novels. The bigger the sales, the more the voice. If it is too small, it will not be famous, which will affect future development.

At the beginning, Yang Huan didn't want to do this, after all, the loss was too big.

But soon, he was relieved.

Yes, he is a fiction author, but in his plan, his novels are to be made into movies.

Even if sales are affected now, so what? It's a big deal that after the "Jurassic Park" movie is made in the future, it will be possible to cooperate with other publishing houses. Maybe when that time comes, you'll earn more.

If the novel sells too well now, it will affect the sales potential in the future.

Of course, if it doesn't sell well, it will be difficult to say at the box office if the movie is made in the future. So, either way, it may have some impact, but it just depends on the focus.

At this stage, the sales of more than 40 million are enough to ensure the future box office of the movie. Even if it's less, there will definitely be something to earn.

In that case, why bother giving Penguin too many benefits. What's more, the price of the first edition is indeed too low, and he really doesn't want to go on like this. Be tough now, and when you talk about the price of The Matrix, you'll be more confident.

"Of course, no matter what, our cooperation is still very smooth. How about we take a step back, and I will only take six million pounds for the second batch of 10 million copies? ”

Six million pounds, which is equivalent to more than 10 million dollars, is the same price as the previous batch. But the last batch was 25 million copies, and the price skyrocketed more than two.

"Impossible, such a price is too high, we will never agree to it."

Before Stephen could speak, Tom Monroe couldn't help it at first. What are you kidding, at the same price, the number of prints is less than half, this is simply a robbery of red fruits.

"I think this kind of price is very appropriate, in fact, if it weren't for the huge investment of your publishing house in the early stage, I wouldn't want to do things perfectly, otherwise it would be more than that."

This is indeed Yang Huan's heart, six million pounds, but only ten million US dollars, in his opinion, it is really too low.

There is no way, who made him a Chinese. If he were a foreigner and had such a result, there would be no need for him to negotiate so much.

Yang Huan could only endure it, and for some benefits, he could only give away a part. Later, after he cheated and established his position in the world of novel publishing, he had the opportunity to give these bastards a good look.

Stephen shook his head and said, "Yang, there's no denying that Jurassic Park is selling very well. However, our publishing house has invested a lot in the early stage, and now that the sales are increasing rapidly, if some small interests affect our cooperation, it will be a lose-lose result after all. ”

"I'm sorry, but it seems to me that the price is already in the concession of the publishing house. Of course, if you can't accept it, I won't force it. ”

"Don't, Mr. Yang, you should understand the sincerity of our publishing house. It's better to take a step back, the price of six million pounds is too high. ”

Yang Huan sighed: "It's really not high, such a price is already very low, I can't continue to back down." What's more, I really don't feel the sincerity of your publishing house. When I first started working with you, the first thing I said was that I wanted to contact the film distributor for me. But how do you do it? I'm disappointed with this attitude. If it weren't for the basis for cooperation, I really wouldn't want to continue talking to you. ”

Ma Yuan and Lin Boxue have come into contact with British film distributors, and these are all channels given by Penguin Press. But it's a pity that the publishing house said it very well in the early stage, and when it really came to ask them to build a bridge for this, it was very insincere.

Not only did he not go in person, but he just made a phone call, and Ma Yuan had to run with Lin Boxue by himself.

On the film distributor's side, the attitude is not too good, which is enough to make Yang Huan unhappy.

In this case, why bother to give face, just resolutely not back down. It's a big deal, change the publishing house, anyway, there are many publishing houses in the UK. If you really can't do it, you can change it to the United States.

The value of British publishing houses is nothing more than the status of British publishing houses in the British film industry, because they have published a large number of novels and have a lot of copyrights in hand, which can match Yang Huan, otherwise there is no need to insist at all.

Stephen's faces were extremely ugly, especially Stephen, he didn't take Yang Huan's request too seriously. After all, in his opinion, Hong Kong films are really nothing to look forward to, and setting up a line for them is just a waste of favor.

Unexpectedly, Yang Huan actually attached so much importance to this. If you knew this, you should have put more thought into it. Don't ask for anything else, just ask Yang Huan to be happy, so that it will be better to negotiate.

"In a word, I will not change it again, ten million copies, six million pounds, it will not change. The release of The Matrix can be handed over to you, still according to the original cooperation model. The print run of 20 million copies of the English version, 10 million pounds, I believe it will not be high. ”

"No, it's absolutely not going to work, it's too high."

Yang Huan stretched out his index finger and waved it in front of his eyes: "It's not high, first of all, I am now the author of the world's best-selling science fiction novel." It's also a science fiction work, I believe the two of you have seen it yesterday, and there is no need to doubt the quality. Twenty million copies is only 10 million pounds, which is really not high. Of course, if the two of you think it's too high, you can set the number at 10 million copies, the price, I'll lose a little, just give 4.5 million pounds, I don't care. ”

Thomas rolled his eyes when he heard this, how long can 10 million copies last? The quality of "The Matrix" is undoubted, and when they saw it at the time, the two couldn't put it down, and they were really shocked by Yang Huan's thinking.

The best-selling Cheng dù of this novel may be comparable to "Jurassic Park". It would be stupid to use 10 million copies.

"Think about it, I'll give you three days. In three days, I'm going to France, and then I'm going to Germany, Spain, and so on. ”

As he spoke, regardless of the speechless expressions of the two, he got up and left. xh:.74.240.212
