Chapter 43: Praise and Disapproval
"The publication fee of a good book in our company is generally 80,000 yuan, and you are not afraid of losing a big one because of a small one?" Qi Zhao is naturally confident that "Smiling Proud Jianghu" will be popular, but as a businessman, he still puts the interests of the company first.
Publishing at this time was a bit like a buyout.
"I'm sure I'll take the small over the big." Nianhua smiled.
"I'm willing to give you 100,000 royalties."
"Uncle, the book you fancy won't be worth only 100,000, I believe in your vision."
Nianhua looked directly at him and said shallowly.
Good guy, if you don't agree, you're slapping yourself in the face! Qi Zhao was helpless, "I'll have someone send the contract over tomorrow." ”
"Looking forward to more collaborations." She plans to publish all future martial arts novels in Agarwood. There is no other reason, she is quite satisfied with Qi Zhao.
"What?" Qi Zhao was surprised, "Do you have any other works?" ”
"Well, I'll keep trying!"
Qi Zhao's joy was suddenly overflowing, put a long line to catch a big fish, today's decision may be correct, Nianhua can bring greater profits to their company. He suddenly looked forward to it.
After sending Qi Zhao away, Li Qian was shocked on the sofa, "Nianhua, I'm not dreaming, you're actually going to publish a book, Auntie feels like a dream!" ”
"It's true, Auntie."
"What do you say you have in your head all the time, that you are different from other children?"
Nian Hua Khan. Can it still be a little strong?
"When the book comes out, I must buy a few more copies and show them to my neighbors." Li Qian said happily that she completely regarded Nianhua as her own child, and my family has a smart and smart woman......
Lan Xuan looked at it and said, "I'll see it too." ”
Nianhua was amused and looked at him sinisterly, "Just check Xiao Xuan's recent homework and how many words you know, haha." ”
Lan Xuan: Bad sister.
Nianhua gave the rest of the manuscript to Qi Zhao, and the two parties also signed a contract, of course, Li Qian served as the guardian.
"Smiling Proud Jianghu" was officially serialized five days later, in this month's "Ancient and Modern" magazine.
The sales volume in the first few days of the first phase is not optimistic, because of the previous trough. Although Gu and Jin can be regarded as a well-known magazine in China, it has also been declining in recent years, and the martial arts master Jiang Lang is exhausted, and it is difficult for newcomers' novels to be influential.
Many people don't look at the past and the present anymore, and only some hardcore hold their positions.
The company also promoted Wu Ming's debut novel "Smiling Proud Jianghu" before, which surprised fans a little.
Some people want to go and see it.
Some people think that the martial arts writing of newcomers in the past few years has been messy, and it will definitely not be much better!
People who bought the magazine out of curiosity saw that the name of the new book was "Smiling Proud Jianghu". On the cover of the magazine, a pair of men and women hold Chang Xiao, smiling proudly in the world. The recommended language is a poem, the world is out of my generation, and the years of the rivers and lakes are urging. In the talk and laughter of the emperor's hegemony, it is better than a drunk in the world.
Something seems to be slowly boiling in the hearts of the readers, and then, they are completely immersed in the plot and cannot extricate themselves.
The martial arts market has been silent for a few years, and I finally see another attractive novel! Looking back at the author's pen name, readers are all surprised, a pen name that has never been seen before.
If it is said that it is anonymous, it is the "tea" of tea. This Wu Ming clan was suddenly haunted by a mysterious charm in their hearts.
It turns out that the loyal fans of ancient and modern, they do not belong to the faction of any martial arts masters, they are just keen on the martial arts novels on "Ancient and Modern", nothing more. But today, the balance in their hearts is gradually falling to the side of the Wu Ming clan.
They recommended "Smiling Proud Jianghu" to their relatives and friends, and relatives and friends went to buy it, and the sales in just one day exceeded the previous few days, and continued to grow.
People who were originally disdainful of Xiaoao Jianghu saw that the momentum was strong, and they were also curious to buy a copy, and after reading it, they regretted that they almost missed such a good work.
Most of the readers of the magazine are teenagers, but also members of the community. In this way, one spread ten, ten spread hundreds, and the smiling proud rivers and lakes themselves have a popular nature, and soon swept the streets and alleys, becoming a topic that people talk about.
By the second issue of the ancient and modern issue, hundreds of thousands of copies of the magazine were completely insufficient, and Agarwood Publishing House had to print more than 100,000 more!
However, not everyone likes it, no matter how good a work is, it is impossible to be recognized by everyone, everything has two sides, let alone in the period of alternation of old and new martial arts.
So when Hua received a call from Qi Zhao, he was not surprised at all.
Qi Zhao said: "Nianhua, there are two news, one good and one bad, which one are you going to listen to first?" ”
Can she choose not to listen to it? Nianhua immediately smiled, "Okay." ”
"The circulation of these two issues of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" exceeded one million. You're amazing, keep up the good work! He said, "Nianhua, you want to invite your uncle to dinner." ”
Qi Zhao laughed low, jokingly, with a demagogic meaning...... Nianhua couldn't help but tremble, fortunately, the difference in age between them was too great, it was impossible, otherwise how could a young woman withstand it?!
"It's all Uncle To's blessing!" She laughed again, "What about the bad ones? ”
"You go to read the T City Daily, "Smiling Proud Jianghu" has caused heated discussions, don't care about some unpleasant words."
Qi Zhao said that now in the T City Daily, the evaluation of Xiaoao Jianghu is good and bad. Of course, the critics are all those antique, old-fashioned martial arts lovers.
Nianhua doesn't need to think about it, how can it be ugly, but anyone who can be in the newspaper scolds people without a dirty word, which is called "quoting scriptures".
She never cared too much about other people's opinions, thinking about the popularization of the Internet in later generations, which of those celebrities had not been scolded, all kinds of unreasonable, indiscriminate, and unclear invective were flying all over the sky.
At least the controversy is fair now.
Nian Hua was relieved: ""Smiling Proud Jianghu" does have a lot to improve. It's not RMB, it's loved by everyone. ”
"Haha." Qi Zhao seemed to have thought of her attitude a long time ago, but he wondered what she said. RMB, it's so interesting, it's rare for a little girl to see it so clearly.
"If my niece could get to know you, she wouldn't be bored every day." He sighed.
"Niece?"
"That's right. Her name is Qi Yueyue, and she must introduce you to each other when she has the opportunity. ”
Qi Zhao's niece, with such a family background, she must be a famous lady! Nianhua is based on the principle that meeting is fate, and he is not reluctant.
Although she was in the aristocratic circle in her previous life, Yan Huaixi had never officially introduced herself, so it was naturally difficult for her to get in touch with his real circle, and she only came into contact with some fox friends and dogs.
Yan Huaixi has a few good buddies who are beaten hard, but she knows, Qin Feng, Zhao Mo.
