"The troubles of the past ten days have finally been solved by me, and then I can live broadcast with peace of mind for a while."
"Finally, I don't have to look at the way you frown." Guo Caixia smiled at Wang Fan and said, "It's not far from nine o'clock now, you can enter the host's live broadcast room." ”
“OK。” With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Wang Fan walked into the radio live broadcast room and started the live broadcast of the night in the live broadcast room.
The story of the ghost blowing the lamp was slowly told by Wang Fan, and the listeners with headphones and radios were brought into the world of the story by Wang Fan's voice and the story of the ghost blowing the lamp, and experienced the fantasy stories and hanging tomb robbery scenes with the protagonist.
……
Time passed slowly like a stream, and before I knew it, a month had passed.
This month has passed, and the final publication results of the two books of Wukong Biography and Xiaoao Jianghu have come out.
These two books have been reprinted three times. From the first printing of 300,000, to the second printing of 200,000, and then to the third printing of 200,000. The total of the three reprints is 700,000, and the number of these 700,000 plus the original first edition, 100,000 copies, makes a total of 800,000 copies.
Since the two books were published together, and the difference between the two books was only a few thousand copies, this means that more than 1.6 million copies of the books were sold.
More than 1.6 million yuan, the retail price of each copy is 25 yuan, a total of more than 40 million yuan. Of the more than 40 million yuan, 15 percent are royalties that Wang Fan can get.
The manuscript fee of more than 6 million yuan was hit into Wang Fan's card on this day.
Wang Fan's mobile phone has a bank prompt, and on this day Wang Fan was coding the chapter of Zhuxian, but he heard the mobile phone ringtone. Hearing the ringtone, Wang Fan thought it was a phone, so he picked up the phone.
picked up the mobile phone and found that it was a text message, Wang Fan wanted to delete it directly, but when he saw a little specific content, Wang Fan was surprised.
More than 6 million, a full 6 million manuscript fees, was hit into his Wang Fan's card.
Seeing the string of zeros in the text message, a glimmer of light flashed in Wang Fan's eyes, and an idea flashed in his head, so he immediately called and called Lu Xiaobu, the editor in charge.
"Xiaobu editor?" Wang Fan said excitedly on the phone.
"Well, Wang Fan, you are looking for me, is it a matter of asking about the manuscript fee?" Lu Xiaobu said with a smile on the phone.
"How do you know?" Hearing Lu Xiaobu's words, Wang Fan was stunned: "Editor Xiaobu, how do you know that I called you to ask about the manuscript fee?" ”
"Because the publishing house held a meeting before, the manuscript fees for your two books were issued today." Lu Xiaobu said with a smile.
"I see." Hearing this, Wang Fan understood.
"Wang Fan said that how much is your manuscript fee?"
"Editor Xiaobu, you don't know how much I have to pay for my manuscript?"
"It's not me, the editor-in-chief, it's the finance department." Lu Xiaobu made an enthusiastic voice on the phone: "Wang Fan, how much is your manuscript fee?" How much money does publishing a book bring you in small money? ”
"More than six million." Wang Fan reported the amount shown in the text message.
"Damn, how much?" Hearing this, Lu Xiaobu's eyes widened.
"Six million."
Listening to Wang Fan's voice on the phone, Lu Xiaobu took a deep breath and said in surprise on the phone: "Six million, I didn't expect it to be two million higher than the estimate in my heart." ”
"Editor Xiaobu, do you estimate that the manuscript fee I can get is four million?"
"Yes! Four million is the royalty that many first-class authors can earn in a year. Wang Fan, you have earned six million now, and it can be said that you are already a real first-class author," Lu Xiaobu said to Wang Fan on the phone: "This year's traditional literary wealth list is about to be revealed, and you will definitely be able to be on the list by then, Wang Fan." Lu Xiaobu said on the phone.
"Traditional Literary Wealth List?"
"That's right, the wealth list is counted once a year, and this wealth list is specially calculated to calculate the manuscript fees that first-class authors can earn in a year." Lu Xiaobu said on the phone: "With your current income this year, you can definitely rank within the top 100 on the wealth list." ”
"Does the wealth list have any other purpose than to exclude the money made by writers?" Wang Fan asked Lu Xiaobu on the phone.
"The traditional literary wealth list is sold in all bookstores across the country. At that time, in all cities in the country, there will be the name of you, a super rookie writer, circulating. ”
"Oh!" After listening to Lu Xiaobu's words, Wang Fan understood that the biggest role of this wealth list is to bring fame to himself.
"When will this literary wealth list be released?"
"This literary wealth list is released by the National Writers Association, and this wealth list will be released next week!" Lu Xiaobu said with a smile to Wang Fan.
"Okay, I'll definitely buy one and take a look at it then." Wang Fan said with a smile.
"Yes!"
……
A week passed like flowing water. On this day, Wang Fan went out during the day, came to the nearest bookstore, and bought the goods that the bookstore had just entered, and the newspaper that recorded the traditional literary wealth list.
The newspaper that records the traditional literary wealth list is called the Writers' Association, and this Writers' Association can be said to be the official newspaper of the Writers' Association.
Wang Fan bought this newspaper, and when he returned home, he immediately opened the newspaper and read it. Looking at Wang Fan, he found that all the contents in this newspaper are novels.
After reading a few novels at random, Wang Fan found that these novels were very readable.
A short novel, in which the plot descriptions are hot-blooded, heavy, and spiritual.
Looking at a few short novels in the newspaper, Wang Fan was very sure that these novels were written by famous artists. If it weren't for the work of a famous artist, it would not be so charming and spiritual.
Wang Fan looked at the newspaper and spent more than an hour reading all the short stories in the newspaper. It is worthy of being a newspaper published by the writers, and the short stories written in it are all first-class in browsing, from martial arts, to romance, to science fiction, and suspense.
But where is the traditional literary wealth list? With doubts, Wang Fan turned the newspaper to the last page, and only then did Wang Fan see the dense row of traditional literary writers' wealth lists.
Looking at the top ten of this traditional literary writer's wealth list, Wang Fan was taken aback. The annual income of the top ten is all over 10 million, the top 5 has exceeded 50 million, and the income of the first year has exceeded 100 million!!
