Chapter 161: Kyogen

After reading the first chapter of "1988", Fei'er was completely fascinated by this different story.

This story is indeed different from the ones she has seen before, Ye Fei always feels that "1988" is revealing this absurd feeling between the lines.

Some of the images look like they're in a dream.

The little girl sat there all afternoon and didn't move until about eight o'clock in the evening, when Shen's mother called this girl to eat.

"Fei'er, it's time to eat."

Shen's mother shouted again, but this Nizi didn't move.

"Fei'er, let's eat."

Shen's mother shouted to Fei'er again, but this Nizi didn't move yet.

Shen's mother walked out of the back kitchen and saw that this girl was holding her mobile phone and concentrating.

She walked over lightly and slowly squatted down:

"What is the little girl looking at so focused?"

"Ah, oh, Mom, scare me."

Fei'er was relieved from the book.

"What did I scare you, it was you who scared me, I shouted three times for dinner."

Shen Hui also said jokingly to Fei'er.

"Ah, that's it, oh mom, blame me for being too engrossed, well, go, good mom, go eat."

Fei'er hugged Shen's mother's arm and was about to go to dinner, but this Nizi suddenly thought of something.

"Ah, Mom, you go eat first, I'll make a phone call and I'll come over."

With that, the girl ran away.

Mother Shen looked at Fei'er who ran away and shook her head:

"Does this girl have a little boyfriend, and she has to carry her mother behind her back when she makes a phone call. I have to talk to Lao Ye about this. ”

After Fei'er ran away, she dialed Ye Chen's number.

This Nizi didn't mean to carry Shen's mother behind her back, but Ye Chen said it before. It's better not to let Ye's father and Shen's mother know about writing a novel, so as not to worry about the two old men.

Fei'er is right to think about it, after all, writing novels is to distract from the study of professional courses.

"Hey, silly brother, your phone is finally connected."

After the phone rang for a long time, Ye Chen picked up the phone.

"Little girl, what. Missed your brother? ”

Ye Chen's words were a little lazy, no wonder, this guy was sleeping before. At this moment, he was sitting in the car, rushing to the Ritz-Carlton Hotel to discuss the publication of the book with the editor of Xiangyi Press.

There is no Ye Chen's scene in the crew today, he came out after talking to Director Xu Qian.

Before that. Ye Chen has already communicated with several publishing houses. For the materials of these publishing houses, Ye Chen also deliberately paid attention to them.

Among the three publishing houses of Tianzheng, Houde and Xiangyi, Houde Publishing House is the most powerful, this publishing house is in Beijing, and almost occupies more than half of the publishing business in Shangjing.

Tianzheng Publishing House is from Tianhai, Ye Chen had heard of this publishing house before, and even the textbooks used in elementary school were published by this publishing house.

Among the three, Xiangyi Publishing House is the worst.

It's a small company that hasn't been created for a long time. Not so long ago after the first round of angel investment, currently. It is in the period of business expansion, and this company is also in Beijing.

After all, there are more opportunities for development in Shangjing.

At first, Ye Chen didn't think about choosing Xiangyi Publishing House, after all, the distribution channels of small companies are limited, and they can't compare with Houde Publishing House, which has taken root in Shangjing.

There is no way to compete with the Tianzheng Publishing House, which has an absolute advantage in Tianhai.

After all, it is difficult to ensure the circulation of books without channels, and if you print too much, you can't sell them, and if you print less, you won't make money.

The first to reply to Ye Chen's private message was Houde Publishing House, that is, the editor Chen Junpeng.

With the channel strength of Houde Publishing House, Ye Chen is also willing to talk to Chen Junpeng.

It's just that on the terms of the signing, the two disagreed.

Ye Chen only wanted to sell the copyright of the book publishing, but Chen Junpeng wanted to sign all the copyrights of Ye Chen.

At this point, Ye Chen would not back down half a point.

After all, in this world, every book Ye Chen wrote was outstanding in that world, so Ye Chen had reason to believe that even if the world changed, these books still had the possibility of becoming classics.

Not to mention the wave of reading that "1988" caused on the scarf already speaks to the popularity of the book.

In this way, Ye Chen attaches more importance to copyright, and he doesn't want to sell all the copyright to others.

In the face of Ye Chen's resolute attitude, Chen Junpeng's ugly side was exposed, and he threatened that if he did not cooperate with Houde Publishing House, the book's sales would definitely shrink seriously.

What's even more arrogant is that this guy said:

"If you reject Houde this time, if you want to cooperate with Houde in the future, it will be impossible again, the opportunity is like this, if you miss it, it will be your lifelong regret."

Ye Chen was looking at the computer screen at that time, and he wanted to hehe, this guy made a face.

The men who have a world I have are not arrogant, you are so arrogant, you think you are Ye Liangchen, and there is no "good" in my name.

So, Ye Chen silently turned off Chen Junpeng's private message.

As for Tianzheng Publishing House, it is not as large as Houde in terms of scale, but it can be regarded as a larger publishing house, otherwise it will not be allowed to publish primary school textbooks.

What's more, this is still a Tianhai company, and Ye Chen's hometown is Tianhai after he comes to this world.

But after talking, Ye Chen's enthusiasm for cooperating with him was gone.

What this publishing house wants is a buyout, and the price is 500 words per 1,000 words.

At this price, Ye Chen's book can earn nearly 100,000 yuan, which is not a small amount.

500 words per 1,000 words is definitely a very high price for online texts, after all, online texts are millions of words, and some can even write 10 million words.

But Ye Chen only has more than 100,000 words, which can't be calculated according to the price of online articles, it should be based on traditional books.

According to traditional books, this is a price that a newcomer can accept, but Ye Chen's book already has more than two million fans on the neck, and the popularity is here, so it can't be counted as a newcomer.

What's more, Ye Chen doesn't like to buy out, he prefers to share, how much of the percentage he can get for each book sold.

After all, unlike a buyout, the share is tied to the sales of the book.

Ye Chen knew in his heart that the sales cycle of a physical book was very long, even as long as ten years.

Therefore, the income from the share will be much higher than the buyout.

What's more, it is impossible for him not to write books in the future, as long as he keeps writing books, his fame will become bigger and bigger, so that more and more people will know about "1988".

It can be said that the potential value of "1988" is too great, and it is not at all reflected in five hundred words.

After chatting with Tianzheng Publishing House for a while, in the end, the other party gave the highest price they could afford, a thousand words and a thousand.

Ye Chen could only refuse, although in the other party's opinion, they couldn't earn anything for a thousand words.

But Ye Chen knew in his heart that "1988" was underestimated by them.

After these two publishing houses couldn't get along, Ye Chen didn't expect that the negotiation with Xiangyi Publishing House made him feel very comfortable. (To be continued......)
