Chapter 30: Sign Your Name!
"That's right, this call, the main reason for this call is to talk to you about the simplified printing copyright of "Rebirth of the Planning Supreme".
On the phone, Editor-in-Chief Yu's tone was very sincere.
"Well, you say."
"What we want to represent is the first copyright of the domestic simplified Chinese version of "Rebirth Planning Supreme", and the agency time limit is five years." Yu Qi said: "As for the price, we pay according to the royalty. The first printing starts at 1,000,000 sets, and royalties are paid at 15 percent. ”
Fifteen percent royalties is indeed very reasonable.
The average writer generally gets about five to ten percent.
"How much money can you have......
Regarding the concept of royalties, Zhou Yan is not clear.
"Let's put it this way." Yu Qi thought for a while and said: "We are ready to print a volume of 200,000 words, and then each book will be sold at 20 yuan in Huaxia yuan, of course, we will give the following circulation channels, that is, about 30% of the profits of book wholesale and retail stores at all levels." In this way, your profit is close to two dollars per book. ”
"Hmm......" Zhou Yan calculated in his heart: "One million times two, that is to say, when the first book is printed, my income will reach two million." Right? ”
"Well, it's hard to say, you still have to pay personal income tax." Yu Qi said with a smile: "However, the income of 1.5 million is absolutely there." ”
yes, a million copies for the first printing, which is the rhythm of a bestseller!
Many so-called bestsellers on the market have only a few hundred thousand prints.
"The estimated number of words in my book should be five million words." Zhou Yan said: "In other words, there will be twenty-five books...... Hehe, you mean to imply to me that I'm going to be a multimillionaire? ”
When the words multimillionaire were mentioned, the audience was silent.
Although the society is now stable and everyone's life is quite nourishing, the annual income of most of the people living in Jiucheng is between 100,000 and 200,000 yuan.
Someone has calculated that the royalties of these 5 million words can reach at least close to 40 million!
This is already the capital of the rich family!
"Oh my God!" There was a teacher who taught mathematics, and he immediately secretly calculated: "My monthly salary is 5,000, plus bonuses, and my wife's salary, and my monthly income is about 12,000 Huaxia yuan......
He gasped: "These 40 million are equivalent to all the savings of the two of us who have not eaten or drunk for more than 300 years!" ”
Three hundred years!
Of course, at such a time, there will be many girls who begin to "have crimson cheeks and look at autumn waves", and there are a few girls who feel good about themselves and actually start to think about it.
Girl A: "If I discharge him in a moment, will he immediately woo me?" ”
Girl B: "Unexpectedly, this Zhou Yan actually has a lot of 'money' to dig up, and I will ask him for a phone number in a while......"
Girl C: "Let's use him as a spare tire......"
There is also a group of boys who are quite delicate, thinking about whether they should have a good relationship with him in the past and toast or something.
"Good!" Suddenly with such a large amount of money at his fingertips, Zhou Yan also became excited: "When are we going to sign the contract?" ”
In an ordinary family, of course he knows a truth.
Money may not be able to buy happiness, but without money there will be no happiness.
Maybe this statement is realistic, but it is absolutely true.
"If there is no problem, we will help you book a ticket, and you should be able to sign the contract before noon tomorrow."
I didn't expect it to be so smooth, Yu Qi's tone also relaxed, and he said.
"Hmm......" Zhou Yan hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay." ”
"Then I'll immediately arrange for someone to buy tickets, and the wine city will go to Kyoto. When you get off the plane, you call this number directly, and I'll pick you up. ”
This is a big face, the editor-in-chief of Huaxia Daily personally picked up the plane, and this kind of treatment generally only happens to some big writers who have been famous for a long time.
Hanging up the phone, Zhou Yan was silent again.
He suddenly found that this so-called class reunion didn't seem to have much to do with him.
Although in such a small group as high school, there are not too many habits like society. But a student like him with poor grades and no background strength really doesn't have two friends.
And other teachers or classmates have not yet recovered from such a sudden shock.
The originally lively class reunion actually became silent at this moment......
"Haha!" Shi Fencai was happy: "I know that my boss is the best and most powerful!" A book is out, and thousands of people admire! ”
Originally, when everyone first heard Zhou Yan's call, there were still a few suspicions - couldn't this guy deliberately find someone to make this call, so that everyone was impressed by him?
But when I heard Yu Qi on the other end of the phone, he was particular about his words, and every sentence revealed a kind of editor-in-chief, and everyone was sure that Zhou Yan was the author of the divine book "The Planning Supreme of Rebirth"!
"Hehehe, Zhou Yan, I didn't expect you to be a genius!" The homeroom teacher also reacted: "Is it convenient to reveal the plot after this book?" Is the protagonist likely to enter the entertainment industry? ”
As soon as this sentence came out, almost everyone pricked up their ears.
Spoilers!
If Zhou Yan says a little follow-up plot, everyone can go to some forums or OO groups to reason about the prophecy and pretend to be a master!
"No comment." Zhou Yan smiled and said: "The greatest pleasure of reading novels is to solve the suspense one by one, if you know it in advance, then what's the point?" ”
This is not Zhou Yan's pretend*, in fact, his understanding of this novel is far inferior to that of his classmates and teachers.
Most of them had already seen the latest chapters, but Zhou Yan had only seen more than fifty chapters on his phone just now.
In his mind, he didn't have any idea for this book!
If everyone here knew that this book was actually converted by Zhou Yan into the computer by "Three Hundred Tang Poems", "Three Hundred Song Poems", "Chinese Textbook for the First Grade of Junior High School" and even Beethoven's Symphony, most of them would cry blood!
"Hmm......" The head teacher nodded and agreed, "That's true." If you know the follow-up story, what else does it mean? ”
"Zhao Huang Meng Hunting!" At this time, a girl suddenly rushed in front of Zhou Yan, stretched out her white arm, and said, "Sign it!" ”
A word woke up the person in the dream, and for a while, the whole private room was boiling. For a while, "Zhao Huang Menglie, sign for me!" "Zhou Yan is really a genius! ”…… Such compliments are endless.
In today's society, the popularity of the great god at a starting point will definitely not be lower than that of any film and television star!
Gou Bu, who thought that he had done well in the exam, would definitely become the focus of this party, was suddenly forgotten by everyone, sitting alone on the stool, and suddenly dreaming - nightmare!
(The old rule, ask for recommendations, rewards, collections, and likes.)
Everyone should know how important this next week's collection is to a new book, and it is expected that this Monday will begin to enter the happy gaochao part of the story, everyone click on the collection, and don't charge money, hehe.
Together with Zhao Huang Menglie, witness the dream come true and witness the rise of "Universal Scene Converter"!
Another: Thank you for the reward of the most ** right of the flower heart man, congratulations on becoming a first-class local tyrant in this book!
Make the tipping more intense! )
