Chapter 337: To make money
"Su Shichen wrote fairy tales just to make money", one stone shocked a thousand waves......
Circle money, whether in the entertainment industry or the literary world, the word circle money is very common, and there are often such words as a certain star attending an event to endorse circle money. However, the way to make money in the literary world is different, for example, there is a book that should have been finished, but because it is very famous, the sales are very good, and the profit is very high, so I wrote a sequel very undisciplinedly. Of course, if the sequel is very exciting, like "The Godfather", the second part surpasses the first part, then it is not called a circle of money.
But if the second part is a dog continuing the mink tail, just under the banner of the first part, then this kind of behavior is also a circle of money in the literary world.
But Su Shichen has never had such a situation, first of all, Su Shichen's books except for "The Legend of Wukong" are all books that are fully qualified to write a sequel, but did Su Shichen write it?
No, no!
Not at all, Su Shichen is different, just like "Sherlock Holmes Detective Collection", how many Fu fans watched Su Shichen continue to write the story of Sherlock Holmes. There are also "The Matrix" and "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", which are how many people beg grandpa to tell grandma, hoping that he can write a second part.
Of course, these are all unfinished series, and the second book should have been written, but the series "Flood Series" has already been written, and many readers have asked him to write the sixth catastrophe of heaven and earth. To put it simply, Su Shichen can't be the kind of person who will write a sequel for the sake of money, on the contrary, this thing is a person who digs a hole and doesn't fill it, and a person who can't write when asked by countless readers. Therefore, it is quite trendy to say that he is making money.
Such a report was written by the deputy editor-in-chief of "Morning Talk": "You may feel that you are making up nonsense when you see this report. Knowing that Weishenme people will choose the theme of fairy tales, which is also the cleverness of the first person in the literary world. Su Shichen can be said to be extremely successful in every field of fiction, as if all genres are his specialty.
If you're writing a science fiction book or a Western fantasy novel, that might have an impact. There is no problem with fairy tales, which are special and never written before. Looking at one story after another, there is no previous logic and rigour, and the writing is not enough even compared to "The Legend of Wukong".
But such a book with no logic or any reflection of the writing has garnered more than 30 million sales in a week, making the book "Everything Will Be Fine" directly become the best-selling fairy tale book in the history of Shijie culture.
And I also got a definite news that Su Shichen signed a contract with Shanshi Company for the book "Everything Will Be Fine" with 25%.
Maybe you don't know much about the division of books that writers take, so I'll make a popularization in a little wordy sentence. The share of domestic first-class writers is about 13%.
It's incredible, such a division can be said to have reached its peak in Europe and the United States. According to the survey, there is no writer's share in China that can reach this point. Even Master Chu's "Song of the Stars" is only 23%.
In addition, it is also certain that in the book "Frozen Throne", Su Shichen's share ratio is only equal to that of Master Chu, and this time he increased his share in vain. The heart of the circle of money is self-evident.
Of course, Zuihou has another proof. Although you know that Su Shichen writes very fast, the book "Everything Will Be Fine" took less than 20 days from Su Shichen's proposal to write a collection of fairy tales to the sale of the entire book.
I have never been in such a hurry before, and when I see this, you should know that Su Shichen will write "Everything Will Be Fine". ”
Zuihou, the deputy editor-in-chief of "Morning Talks", is also hypocritical, and he knows everything, and it can be said that he is at war on that topic.
Originally, the battle between "Morning Talk" and "Summit Newspaper" supported by Shanshi Company was very fierce these days, and almost everyone in the industry knew about it. But what I didn't expect was that "Morning Talk" really dared to directly tear up the skin with Shanshi Company.? From influence to industry, "Morning Talk" is like a child's paper. And Shanshi Company is a strong adult, according to the current strength of Shanshi Company in China, "Morning Talk" still dares to do this, which is clearly the birthday boy hanged, and he is tired.
Well, in fact, these media don't pay much attention to the grievances and hatred between Shanshi's company and "Morning Talks", they pay attention to this article, this report about Su Shichen's money.
The fairy tale "Everything Will Be Alright" turned out to be a work of money, big news, big news, must be followed!
The media reporters are like zombies besieging the city, and a large number of "zombies" are coming......
"May I ask President Wang, is what was reported by the "Morning Talk" this afternoon true?" "Is the 25% share of fairy tales really true?" "With the sales of 10 million copies in a week, are you not satisfied with this circle of money?" "Is Su writer in the company? What is there to refute this? ”……
As soon as Wang Ni walked out of the door of the company building, she was blocked by reporters, and this jiashi seemed to tear her whole person apart.
The secretary and the accompanying bodyguards naturally blocked these reporters, "I have nothing to say about this matter for the time being, and a press conference will be held later to explain in detail." Wang Ni prevaricated in an official tone, and then quickly got into the car under cover.
……
"Bang bang."
Su Shichen felt very strange when he heard the knock on the door, basically the room he rented next to the school, except for the part-time worker aunt who invited to clean the room, no one came.
Glancing up at the wall clock, it was not yet the time for the part-time worker aunt to come, "Why is it so early today?" ”
got up and opened the door, and when I saw that the person who came was Wang Ni, and I saw that she was still wearing professional clothes at work, and she was dusty.
"Auntie, are you here?"
"Auntie, you sit first." Su Shichen first brought Wang Ni into the house, then made a cup of tea, put it in front of Wang Ni, and then asked, "Auntie, are you here because of the fairy tale collection, the first week sales questionnaire sent to me yesterday." I've seen it, but I didn't expect the sales to exceed 30 million. ”
"What is Xiao Chen doing these days, locked up at home all day and not going out?" Wang Ni looked at the decoration of the living room. Then he asked.
"I've finished writing 'Everything Will Be Alright', and there's still a historical publication to write. It's really very difficult to write, and I prepared a lot of materials for writing this book, not to mention going out, and I don't have time to watch movies on the Internet. "There are still some books scattered on the sofa, among which "Three Kingdoms" and some history books about the Three Kingdoms are must-haves.
"No wonder......," Wang Ni got up, "Xiao Chen, you have a computer in your room." ”
"What's wrong?" went to the room and opened the notebook and gave it to Wang Ni. Wang Ni just clicked on the search page, and then today's hot news, the first news is [Su Shichen circle money].
Seeing this title, Su Shichen was also stunned. Wang Ni will click on it, which means that this is not the same name and surname, but it is indeed him.
Circle money? Does he still need to make money? What's going on?
Click on it to take a look," according to the "Morning Talk" report. Su Shichen wrote "Everything Will Be Fine" to make money. Then there is a screenshot of the news of the "Morning Talk". I can see it quite clearly.
"Top, Su Dajie it, and even wrote this kind of work to fool readers, "Everything Will Be Fine" is not compared with published novels, the writing is not as good as "Zhu Xian", and the rigor of logic is not as good as "Infinite Horror", zuihou I have the same point of view as the deputy editor-in-chief of "Morning Talk", this is a work of money. Identification completed. ”
"Hehe, I laughed. "Everything Will Be Alright" is a collection of fairy tales, a collection of fairy tales, OK? It's written for children, and what kind of rigor and writing, which fairy tale collection have you seen that have these two things? The collection of fairy tales requires unbridled imagination and fun, both of which Su Da has done very well. ”
"Why didn't you say upstairs that Su Da's book asked for a 25% share ratio? Also, in less than a month, a book was published, isn't there any other reason why it's not in a hurry to make money? ”
"If you want to make money, you don't need to write fairy tales, Su Da can write a copy of Warcraft II, or Hacker II, and the sales volume in the first week can increase by at least three times, can you use this?"
"Yes, I also think so, Su University is not short of money at all now, not to mention real publishing, the royalties of works on the Internet alone published last year were tens of millions, and it is estimated that Su University's assets are one billion."
"Money is never too much, and it's not all said in the morning newspapers, if you use books like Hacker II and Warcraft II to make money, isn't it the whole series? Is it a fool to write so many classics? Therefore, a collection of fairy tales is the most suitable. ”
"No matter what the report is, I still insist on believing in Su University, yes, I am an NC fan."
……
There are thousands of comments under this news, among which there are strong supporters of Su Shichen, and there are also those who agree with the views of "Morning Talk", and the ratio of people who support and oppose has reached a terrifying ratio of four to six. Of course, six of them are opposed, and the remaining forty percent of the people who support it, the troll black water army may occupy eighty percent, and the readers who believe in Su Shichen are far more than those who don't, which makes Su Shichen very pleased.
But even this small number of people who believe the content of this article in "Morning Talk" still have a very big impact on Su Shichen.
"Morning, talk, report." Su Shichen repeated these three words word by word, and then his gloomy face disappeared, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "The Morning Talk Newspaper has finally turned from the dark to the light. ”
"No wonder you came to me today, you should have asked me to hold a press conference." Su Shichen can now fully imagine the scene outside, Su Shichen is the banner of Shanshi's company, it can be said that he has been bound, so Wang Ni's move is completely understandable, I am afraid that the editor-in-chief bosses of all publishing houses will do this when they encounter such a thing. It can be seen from the reply just now that many readers still believe that this is not good for his reputation and the reputation of the company.
But Wang Ni's thinking is difficult for ordinary people to understand, and I saw her head shake slightly, "I have already determined that "Everything Will Be Fine" promotes jihua, and there is no press conference among these jihua. "This is completely the words of a person who does not know how to be flexible, is it not held because there is no Jihua in it?
But Wang Ni is a person who doesn't know how to be flexible? Naturally not, Su Shichen has never said that he wants to write this fairy tale, Wang Ni can be said to support him in another way.
"Aunt, that's really domineering." Su Shichen clapped his hands and pretended to be a sycophant.
"The sharing contract signed by "Everything Will Be Fine" with the company is only known to the senior management, but the people who talked about it in the morning are very clear that it is impossible if no one discloses the news."
In the final analysis, there are only two evidences that he made money: one is that the creation time is very fast, and the proportion of the two is surprisingly high. Of the two reasons, the latter is the most critical.
Wang Ni's words seemed to say that there was a traitor in Shanshi's company, Su Shichen frowned and asked, "Find out who it is?" ”
"I guess I know." Wang Ni said the main purpose of coming this time, that is, the reason for the company's shares, so that Su Shichen could not transfer them anyway and so on.
It seems that the person who leaked the information to the "Morning Talk" is not small, and it should be a shareholder of the company.
The president of a company is naturally very busy, and after the explanation, Wang Ni is ready to leave, and Su Shichen gets up to see him off.
"Auntie, are you really not going to have a press conference?" Sent downstairs, watching Wang Ni get into the car, Su Shichen asked again before closing the car door.
"If Xiao Chen needs it." Wang Ni's words are obvious, which means that if you Su Shichen want to explain the reason, it's okay, I don't want to say that no one interferes with you.
If you don't explain, your reputation will definitely be damaged, but there is an indescribable feeling in Su Shichen's heart to explain, and it is difficult to choose.
In the end, Su Shichen shook his head, "Auntie, pay attention to rest, don't just focus on work." ”
Close the car door, watch the car leave, buy some snacks at the small supermarket downstairs, and go home.
Su Shichen and Shanshi Company did not respond to this kind of remarks about collecting money, and this acquiescence added to the arrogance of "Morning Talk......
PS: After writing the first chapter at one o'clock, I sent it to Momo at three o'clock, asking for a monthly pass, and rewarding support. (To be continued......)
