When the snow fills the campus, it is extraordinarily enchanting.

When the snow melts, it's so cold that my fingers are woody.

However, contrary to the cold weather, Zhang Tan's heart became hot.

It has been a week since the first issue of "Ancient Legends: Martial Arts Edition" was released, and the sales volume has been very good, and it has received a large number of readers' purchase support. And the "Four Famous Earthquake Capture Kanto" published on it is also hot, rave reviews, and you can receive phone calls and letters every day.

That's not the point.

The point is that Wang Conglun called, and the editorial department of "Martial Arts Edition" helped Zhang Tan's novel and contacted a publishing house, Taiwan Xianxian Culture Publishing House.

"The publishing house of Taiwan?" Zhang Tan was a little surprised.

He didn't think that he would be involved with the publishing house in Taiwan at the first time, but if you think about it carefully, this is also normal, after all, the martial arts atmosphere is driven by Hong Kong and Taiwan, and a large number of martial arts masters have emerged in Xiangxiang and Taiwan, and there will naturally be publishing houses that publish martial arts novels if there are martial arts writers.

On the mainland side, martial arts is still very weak, and the magazines that even publish martial arts novels are currently the only one "Ancient Legends: Martial Arts Edition", not to mention the publishing house specializing in martial arts publishing. Many of the martial arts novels on the mainland are works by famous Hong Kong and Taiwan artists issued by pirates.

"Xian Xian Culture is a publishing house that has just been established in Taiwan, but Xian Xian Culture also has an online novel website called Xian Net Literature, which has a large number of readers in Taiwan area. Xian Xian Culture is taking the route of traditional publishing, because we have a relationship with Xian Online and have a connection with it, so we recommend your novel. Wang Conglun said on the phone.

"Well, okay, we can sit down and talk." Zhang Tan said he understood.

Compared with the unknown number of potential readers in the mainland, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Chinese areas radiated by traditional Chinese publishing have a large number of readers after being reclaimed by many martial arts masters. Publishing traditional Chinese first can not only have a guaranteed sales guarantee, but also further explore the prospect of simplified publishing based on the sales results of traditional Chinese.

Because the mainland and Taiwan are inconvenient, they can't sit together to drink tea and discuss, so the manager of Xianxian Culture directly contacts Zhang Tan by email and phone, which is a bit troublesome, Zhang Tan has to go to the Internet café in Shuangdun Town from time to time, but the result of the contact is still very ideal.

Under the mediation of Wang Conglun, Zhang Tan and Xian Xian Culture reached an agreement on traditional Chinese publishing.

The 160,000-word "Four Famous Capture of the Kanto Territories" is paid based on sales figures, with more than 6,000 copies sold, with 10% of sales as remuneration, and more than 6,000 copies sold, with 13% of sales as remuneration.

It's a newcomer price.

However, Zhang Tan didn't have much bargaining, his works were not recognized by the market, and others would not sign a contract at a famous price as soon as they came up.

As long as this "Four Famous Earthquake Catchers" can sell well, and wait for the next book, you will be able to sign better conditions.

In Taiwan, a book is about NT$160, which is equivalent to about 40 yuan. The sales of 6,000 copies are 240,000, and the remuneration is more than 30,000 yuan based on 13 percent. With the current capacity of the Taiwan market, basically a novel is of good quality and meets the taste of the public, and it is not a problem to sell 6,000 copies.

But further up, it will be difficult to sell tens of thousands of copies.

After all, the time of Zhang Tan's rebirth is a little late, and martial arts is about to finish the most beautiful moment, in the sixties and seventies of the last century, a martial arts novel can be sold to Hong Kong and Taiwan, but now, it is much worse. Although martial arts film and television dramas have changed and are still popular, book sales have shrunk significantly.

When the era of online literature comes, martial arts novels will be more impacted, and even withdraw from the big stage.

Fortunately, in the past few years, Zhang Tan has been able to take a ride and earn a few years of manuscript fees. Don't be afraid of the decline of martial arts in a few years, as long as he has a reputation and holds the classics, it is too simple to make money. Before Zhang Tan was reborn, newcomers were starving to death when they wrote martial arts, but Huang Yi and Wen Ruian, the two martial arts masters, were still busy writing martial arts to make money.

"Moreover, I definitely want to take the route of film and television adaptation, and this aspect is the main way to make fame and money."

This is called giving up small profits to seek the future.

……

After sending the contract, "The Four Famous Catches Kanto" was officially authorized to be published by Xian Xian Culture.

From publishing to sales, this process will not be too short, so for now, Zhang Tan can't see how much money he can make, and he is more or less worried, if the book is published, but it can't be sold, it will be a shame.

But he couldn't be in a hurry, Zhang Tan could only press his mind and continue to be a quiet beautiful man.

Time flies.

The temperature is really cold, and when you wake up on the table, you will feel cold and shivering. Well, Zhang Tan fell asleep in math class, and slept soundly under Luo Jinsong's loud voice.

Luo Jinsong doesn't care about Zhang Tan anymore, as long as Zhang Tan doesn't quarrel with others in class, he can do anything, even if he doesn't come, it won't be anything.

However, Zhang Tan also thought about listening to the class and making up for his math grades.

But it's tough, and those figures, lines, and functions are also unfathomable for him for two lifetimes. Zhang Tan doesn't think he's stupid, he can only say that his talent is not in this kind of logical and abstract discipline. Mathematics, physics and chemistry are as bad as the three courses. In math class, I was better off busy with myself, but once I listened carefully, I fell into hypnosis unconsciously.

Plus last night's explosion of inspiration, writing until one o'clock in the morning......

When I woke up, I got out of class.

Zhang Tan stretched his waist and was about to go out to move his numb hands and feet, Cao Yuchuan pulled him and pulled him back: "How many words are written in "The Four Famous Catchers of Jingshi", hurry up and show me." ”

"I didn't write much, and besides, I typed directly in my notebook, and if I didn't publish it, you wouldn't see it." Zhang Tan waved his hand.

His novels, which can cause strong repercussions in magazines, are naturally more popular in the class, and his classmates are eager to learn about his novels. Most of the students in the class had read the content of the "Martial Arts Edition", and then they quarreled with him to see the follow-up, and Zhang Tan had to contribute his manuscript.

However, there is no way to show them "The Four Famous Catchers of Beijing" in advance, they are all in the computer.

In this era, you can't use your mobile phone to read e-books, and MP4 that can read e-books hasn't yet appeared.

"What is the main point of the Jingshi?" Cao Yuchuan didn't give up, and asked the plot directly.

"The story of the four famous arrests."

"What's the story?"

"The story of solving the case, the story of pretending, the story of falling in love."

"Damn, that's too general."

As he was talking, Gao Jie turned his head and looked at Zhang Tan with a straight face: "You slept in another class." ”

Gao Jie cares about Zhang Tan very much, which is a kind of concern mixed with the friendship between classmates and the girl's hazy affection for the opposite sex.

Zhang Tan came over and understood this. But for the girl's concern, he is somewhat uncomfortable, and the other party is underage. So he never responds to this kind of favor, and is limited to the line of classmates.

After thinking about it, Zhang Tan nodded solemnly: "Yes." ”

"Why don't you listen to the class?"

"It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't violate the laws of nature."

Gao Jie frowned and asked suspiciously, "What is the law of nature?" ”

Zhang Tan said seriously: "The law of nature is that as soon as I listen to math class, my brain has an urge to sleep, and this impulse quickly dominates my consciousness with the transmission of nerves, so I doze off." ”

"What a coincidence, in fact, I also follow the laws of nature." Cao Yuchuan said quietly.
