Chapter 39: Who Are You Fooling?
How deep the love is, how deep the hatred is, Liu Yifei knows very well what is going on between Luo Tian and Fuji Shizuka, the two people who were known as the golden boy and jade girl at the time, but in the end, Fuji Shizuka betrayed Luo Tian, stole the song belonging to Luo Tian, and directed Luo Tian's fiasco, and as a result, he actually applied for Beijing TV, such a blow, if Luo Tian didn't care at all, then Liu Yifei didn't believe it.
Therefore, Liu Yifei was afraid that after Luo Momo met Fuji Shizuka, he would lose his mind. Gao Qiang finally arrived at the scene before the auction began, and the first thing he looked for after he arrived was Luo Tian, if he couldn't catch Luo Tian's book, in Gao Qiang's opinion, he couldn't forgive himself.
Therefore, after seeing Luo Tian and Liu Yifei, the first thing to pay attention to was not Liu Yifei, the head of the Jade Girl Sect, but Luo Tian.
Gao forced him to walk over and said very politely: "Mr. Luo Tian, hello, I am Gao Qiang, the president of Parrot Publishing House, and I want to talk to you about the copyright of [Luo Tianpin Three Kingdoms]. If you can get our publisher to publish your book, then the price is good, and I will definitely give you a satisfactory price, at least much better than the price of registering a newcomer. ”
In Gao Qiang's view, what writers value most is naturally the remuneration they earn. Generally speaking, as long as the remuneration is increased, almost no writer will refuse his olive branch.
But Luo Tian is an exception, at this moment Luo Tian did not answer this at all, but glanced at Gao Qiang and said, "President Gao? Well, if my guess is correct, I went to Beijing TV that day for the copyright issue. When you go to Beijing TV, it actually has nothing to do with me, but it turns out that the leader of the TV station wants the copyright of my book. Speaking of which, my resignation from Beijing TV still has a certain relationship with you. ”
Luo Tian was not attracted by his olive branch, and it seemed that he was going to come with something real.
Therefore, at this moment, Gao Qiang immediately said: "I'm sorry, the affairs of the TV station really have nothing to do with me, I just contact the people of the TV station according to normal habits, who knows how the leaders of your TV station will talk to you about copyright issues, you blame me for this problem." As long as the leader of your TV station wants your copyright, even if there is no Parrot Publishing House, there will be other publishing houses to find your leader, and you will have to leave the same time, right? ”
This is the core of the problem, the key is that the TV station leader wants to monopolize Luotian's [Luotianpin Three Kingdoms], so such a thing will happen.
Seeing that Luo Tian was unmoved, Gao Qiang immediately said: "The remuneration of nine percent, the printing volume of the first edition is 50,000, this matter cannot be lower." As a newcomer, this remuneration is quite good, the average newcomer is only five to seven percent, and the first version is 10,000 to 30,000 yuan. We did this book with the goal of a bestseller. ”
Luo Tian smiled slightly, poured tea and sent it over, and said: "This price is indeed a good condition for newcomers, according to the price of 30 yuan a piece, I also have a remuneration of 120,000 yuan for 50,000 yuan." But you seem to have forgotten one thing, the profit you said on the TV station is three million, if it is said that according to such a number, my 120,000 is too low, right? ”
Gao Qiang swore that he only told Director Yang Guang about this matter, and others didn't know about it at all, even in his own publishing house, no one else knew the specific number, and Gao Qiang himself was promoting the development of this matter.
But Gao Qiang never expected that this number was actually known by Luo Tian, which means that Luo Tian has his own news channel on Beijing TV, and this channel should be relatively high-end, otherwise it is impossible to know the news.
Therefore, on such a question, Gao Qiang hesitated for a moment and said: "It seems that I still underestimated Mr. Luo Tian's network, yes, I talked to Director Yang Guang about this matter, but it was for the TV station, and the Beijing TV station was able to help me promote the book, so if I got three million, it should be, and it actually included the issue of promotion fees."
Now Mr. Luo Tian, you are no longer in the capital TV, and you are alone, if you want to get these expenses, it is almost impossible, I think, the unspoken rules in this, I don't say that you also know. ”
Luo Tian is indeed very clear, after all, the advertising fee of this TV station is not cheap, if the parrot publishing house cooperates with the Beijing TV station, once the book is published, the Beijing TV station will definitely do its best to help publicize it, therefore, on such a problem, it is normal for the parrot publishing house to give a high remuneration.
Luo Tian thought for a while and said: "If you want to publish a copy of my book, then there is no problem, I want to guarantee a 9% share, and if the sales of this book do not exceed 50,000, the guaranteed remuneration is mine, and I don't ask for anything else, but if it exceeds 50,000, then I want to share 10% of your total profits, and I don't want to take 3 million, but this 10% is what I deserve." ”
Seeing that Gao Qiang wanted to refuse, at this moment, Luo Tian immediately said: "President Gao, you don't have to answer me immediately, anyway, the publishing house is not your family, I believe that my book, many people will be interested, and when the time comes, I am afraid that it will not be such a condition."
You're the first to find me, but definitely not the last. ”
This is Luo Tian's confidence, strong confidence, he himself is very confident in this book, a bestseller, 120,000 yuan to win, that is impossible.
And at this moment, Gao Qiang fell into a deep thought, such a thing, he himself is a little undecided, this book will be a bestseller, Gao Qiang is sure, but in the publishing industry, the general profit is 10,000 copies, 20,000 is considered to be beyond expectations, 50,000 is basically a bestseller.
And Gao Qiang is aiming for the bestseller and wants to operate this book, as for more than 50,000, Gao Qiang really didn't think about it.
But at this moment, Gao Qiang also knew very well in his heart that he was just taking a little advantage, if it was said that at such a time, other publishing houses woke up and found Luo Tian, then in such a matter, a small publishing house like Parrot Publishing House would not have any chance of winning at all.
