Chapter 504

The influence of "BAD" continues, and the two songs have also made many Americans begin to pay attention to Li Chencan, a Chinese.

This guy is really amazing.

Especially the success of these two songs.

After "BAD", everyone's expectations for Li Chencan temporarily dropped slightly.

"Chencan...... Here's the thing. At this time, Zhong Bufan found Li Chencan and began to talk about the latest progress in contact with Roman Publishing House:

"Roman, this old guy is really annoying." Zhong Bufan couldn't help but start complaining about Roman at this time: "Although this guy has a smiling face on the surface, he is a rather cheap old guy in his bones, and he really doesn't know what he thinks of you and me behind his back." ”

Li Chencan patted his arm with a smile and said, "Okay, old Zhong, you have also discovered the insidiousness of this old boy, this guy is indeed like that, an old smiling tiger...... I feel like he's been thinking a lot of things lately, and he's not paying attention to me anymore, especially after Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. ”

"That's true." Zhong Bufan's heart also began to flash these fragments, and he also found that Li Chencan actually saw a lot of things in his eyes, but this guy seemed to be more introverted in some places, and he didn't seem to talk much, but in fact, he had a number in his heart for many things.

This is Li Chencan's character.

After a pause, Zhong Bufan said to Li Chencan: "I have also figured out the reason for his change of attitude...... It was that Sean, who had previously written a bestseller that had published millions of copies. At that time, he was also a best-selling author in the United States, and his success at that time was mainly due to his own writing ability and the support he received from Purin Press. Now Sean is back in the picture. will write a new book describing some supernatural events in the United States, "Thirty Years of Supernatural Notes", so Roman will naturally shift his attention to him, but Sean has high requirements for the publishing house to just praise him alone, so now Roman will come to you. I also hope that it can play some role in containing Sean. But if your asking price doesn't match what he imagined, he'll give up on you right away. ”

Zhong Bufan said it in an orderly manner, and later showed Li Chencan the evidence.

Li Chencan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Sure enough, after having Zhong Bufan, many things on his side of love will be seen more clearly, which is a matter of course.

This is also the meaning of Zhong Bufan. You'll be able to have more room to move around...... Either way, it's a nice thing.

"I see."

At this time. Li Chencan nodded, and then said, "I know what to do...... However, for the next book, I also told you that it must not be less than the previous condition, otherwise, it is really not interesting......"

The condition that Li Chencan said before is a copyright fee of 500,000 US dollars. Then there's the 20% profit share, which is his bottom line.

If less than that. Anyway, he didn't think it made any sense to himself.

"I guess it's a little hard." Zhong Bufan shook his head slightly and said.

Li Chencan frowned and said: "Let's talk about it first, if we can, we can also use the ability of their publishing house, after all, this is the top ten publishing houses in the United States, if not, we can also have other options, with the current situation of "Harry Potter", it should not be difficult to find a home." Li Chencan's words were also said after his own thinking, anyway, he now has quite strong confidence, since the sales of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" appeared, he knew that his novel should also be able to shine here like another time and space, so he doesn't have to worry too much about many things.

Zhong Bufan nodded, but he stopped talking a little...... Li Chencan looked at him a little strangely when he wanted to speak, and said with a smile: "Old Zhong? What questions do you have? Just say it, don't hide it in your heart. ”

Zhong Bufan said, "Chencan, I have an idea...... I'll say it now, if you don't think it's feasible then forget it, let's skip it, but if you think it's possible...... I thought I might as well give it a try. ”

"Huh? What's the idea? Li Chencan looked into his eyes and said.

"Well, you said, now we are mainly looking for other publishing houses, looking for other people to do something, so why did we not think of doing this ourselves? For example, we own a publishing house ourselves? Of course, this is just my statement, if a publishing house only has one book, it can't be sustained, I'm just giving you an inspiration. Zhong Bufan said: "The biggest problem is that we don't have connections in the United States. ”

After Zhong Bufan said the back, he had no confidence...... Because he felt very immature about the idea.

It's just that he doesn't know what kind of impact this sentence has had on Li Chencan.

It is no exaggeration to say that the current Li Chencan feels as if a lightning bolt suddenly struck his head, and it feels as if the entire thick dark cloud has been directly split into a big hole!

yes, why don't you do that for yourself!

Li Chencan said with a bit of a muttering feeling: "This idea ......"

Zhong Bufan said a little embarrassedly: "Chencan, of course I just said it casually, if you don't think it's good, then forget it...... After all, the decision-making power is still yours. He felt that what he just said might not be appropriate for Li Chencan, so he spoke now with a feeling that he had just said something wrong.

Li Chencan shook his head: "No! Old Zhong, you're right...... It is true that we do not have much connections on the American side...... However, connections are still the key, we mainly have to pick people, if we find the right people, let them do the right things, then many things do not have to worry about ourselves, as long as we find the right people, do you say this is the truth? Anyway, you are familiar with the United States, and you know a lot about them, so as long as you are responsible for these things, you can communicate with them and deal with them when the time comes, and take a good look at what these people think, isn't that okay? ”

"Uh......" Hearing Li Chencan's words, Zhong Bufan was a little surprised, he just put forward an idea casually at first, and then he vetoed it himself, but Li Chencan actually agreed at once, and it seemed that he had become brainy because of the suggestion he put forward?

What's going on?

"You mean ......?" Zhong Bufan asked a little strangely, but his heart also included expectations...... If Li Chencan really has the intention of doing this, then these things are very important and necessary. He himself will be able to follow Li Chencan to do a career at that time, Li Chencan's demon, in the past few days, Zhong Bufan has seen it very clearly, if he really shows so many things in his head, it will inevitably be a huge achievement at that time.

Then, if you are always by his side, you will be able to get great benefits...... At that time, it will be possible to realize your ideal ambitions!

That's it!

Li Chencan nodded and said to him, "What I mean is, yes, we should do it ourselves!" Shouldn't this fate be left to someone else...... Actually, that's what we should have done when we first came to the United States...... That also takes a lot less effort into the skin. ”

The more Li Chencan thought about it, the more he felt that he had made some mistakes before......

If "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" had been left to myself at the beginning, and if I had found a professional to package it and brand the book, then I wouldn't have needed to work with Purin Press to make it what it is now...... Indeed, he feared that an obscure publisher would not be able to run as much as the precious Harry Potter text he had...... But the problem is that Li Chencan now has three or four billion US dollars in funds, so much money is not used for decoration, so much money is smashed, as long as he finds the right person, many things are completely logical.

In the beginning, he had some mindset that he should follow the same path in the United States as China to make himself famous...... At most, there will be a whole personal studio.

However, now Zhong Bufan's words woke him up.

Now that I have enough strength to create an entertainment empire, including entertainment empires from all walks of life, I shouldn't have too many ideas about where to start...... I started from a publishing house, and that's perfectly fine.

For a book like "Harry Potter", if you give the big head to the publishing house, you will get the small head...... That's really not cost-effective, the role that such a book can play is unimaginable, and the benefits it can bring are also unimaginable...... In the future, if you want to adapt it into a movie, if you are doing it by your own publishing house, then the left hand will be given to the right hand, and things will become simpler.

As for the question of whether one's books can support a publishing house...... It's not that there are no other authors in the United States, as long as you find them to support the publishing house, and you can have bestsellers all year round.

For him, "The Hobbit", "Mascoe", "Harry Potter", "Twilight", "A Song of Ice and Fire" ...... These are the names...... There is no problem at all in becoming the leader of the publishing house. (To be continued......)
