Chapter 407: Learning the Spirit of Browser Games
"Silly brother, you asked me to come here today, not just to invite me to dinner......" Xian Shaofeng said something.
Xian Shaofeng and Ji Wen used to be authors affiliated with the same publishing house, and the relationship between the two is strange, it can be said that they are both rivals and friends. But since Ji Wen changed jobs, there has been little contact with each other. What Xian Shaofeng wrote is not science fiction, but fantasy novels. His fantasy novels are not the same as "The Frozen Throne", but "The Chronicles of Narnia" as a fantasy book for teenagers, and most importantly, his novels sell better in the West than Kiwen.
Ji Wen played with the goblet in his hand, and muttered for a long time before he spoke: "Shaofeng, you can also come to Shanshi Company." ”
"No wonder, I just said that this meal is not so easy to eat, it turns out to be poaching." Xian Shaofeng laughed self-deprecatingly, "Shanshi Company is indeed stronger than our publishing house, but how many well-known authors are there in Shanshi Company?" Don't talk about Su Shichen, an unsurpassable god, according to the survey, 60% of the top writers in China are gathered in Shanshi Company, and it is better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail, stupid brother, you haven't heard it, right? ”
"People's Daily" once released a statistic that Shanshi Company includes more than 65% of the first-class and top authors in China, which is definitely a terrifying data.
Of course, when the Yangcheng Novel Festival is released, and then monopolizes more than 50% of the new authors every year, then Shanshi Company will be completely foundational.
"I'd rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail, this truth should be more than Shaofeng, you alone understand. But Shaofeng, why don't you want to think about it, why are there so many top writers willing to join Shanshi Company? ”
"Simple. It's not just for the foreign market. Xian Shaofeng ate steak and was very confident, "I don't lack foreign markets at all." Now the publishing house is fully promoting my novels, and my new book has sold 600,000 more copies than your "Sky Star", silly brother, you are not my opponent in terms of sales, so you want me to join Shanshi Company as well, right? Xian Shaofeng's tone was called a yin and yang weirdness.
"Also, since you left, the publishing house signed a 24% share contract with me, and I don't think they will give me a higher share if I go to Shanshi. Silly brother, do you still think I should change jobs? ”
Xian Shaofeng's foreign sales can be ranked among the top ten in China, and it can be said that he is an author with his own foreign channels. And the data of 24% is completely only attainable by Su Shichen's level, and there are no more than a lot of people in Huaxia who have this kind of share. Plus the resources of the entire publishing house revolve entirely around him. is to train him as a banner, so it seems that there is really no reason to change jobs.
"Shaofeng, how much did you earn for your new book?"
"More than 10 million." This share plus that sales. So the new book swept 10 million in three months after it was launched, which is already quite a good pay.
"The sale of "Sky Star" is also three months. I received more than 24 million yuan in remuneration. Kiwen gave such a figure.
"Impossible." Xian Shaofeng blurted out, in terms of sales, Xian Shaofeng has 600,000 more copies than Ji Wen, and the contract share is also higher, but the remuneration he received is twice as much as his, which is really unscientific.
"Starry Sky" was published on Longyun Literature Network, and the electronic remuneration was 50,000 ...... "The electronic remuneration is only 50,000 yuan, which Xian Shaofeng doesn't care about.
The manga adaptation was serialized in Shanshi Anime Weekly. And this copyright fee is 1.8 million. Also released last month, the single book of "Starry Night" was divided into 500,000. "Ji Wen counted one by one, each count. Xian Shaofeng's face was embarrassed.
"The film rights of "Starry Sky" have been sold to Shanshi Entertainment, and the price is still being negotiated, but it should not be less than one million. And there is also the possibility of adapting it into anime, which Shanshi has separated from the anime department and the manga department last month and made them two separate departments. ”
"In addition, the online games and mobile games of "Starry Night" are already under development, but the most profitable ones are peripheral products, the costumes of my novel "Starry Sky" have been sold according to the comic version, and there are some small models, let's put it this way, more than 24 million in three months, this is still in the case that some prices have not been negotiated and have not been published in the United States."
Xian Shaofeng was stunned by the series of figures, according to this, 24 million in three months is really a conservative estimate. His new book so far, not to mention the game, even the comic copyright is still just a conversation, not to mention any peripherals and so on.
He used to always hear that Shanshi Company is the company with the most complete publishing system in China, and at that time he was still a little unimpressed, thinking that it means that there are more sales channels than ordinary publishing companies, but now he has discovered the horror of Shanshi Company.
Right! It's really terrifying, the rest of the publishing companies and Shanshi companies are not at the same level at all, no wonder there are still many first-class writers and top writers who have jumped ship when the sharing and publicity resources are not as good as before, and now Xian Shaofeng finally understands what he is doing.
What does an author figure do? This has been said many times, and it is nothing more than money and fame. Under the operation of the Shanshi comics department, weekly serials and single books can be adapted under the operation of the Shanshi network, and it is very likely to be adapted into movies and TV series under the operation of Shanshi Entertainment, and the peripheral products under the manufacturing and operation of Shanshi are all self-produced and sold, which is the real maximization of benefits!
The wide dissemination of works is also a great improvement for money and fame, and of course, the most important thing is that Shanshi Company has a big weapon - Shanshi Media. It has as many as five newspapers and magazines, two weekly magazines, and has close cooperation with Yangcheng Satellite TV. Yangcheng Satellite TV had a program called "Writer's World" at three o'clock in the afternoon, and all the authors introduced by Shanshi Company were introduced.
"I'll think about it." In the end, Xian Shaofeng gave such an answer, obviously because he had already moved.
A week later, Xian Shaofeng officially announced to readers that he would join Shanshi's company, which was completely unexpected, Su Shichen's trident plan, coupled with the situation that Xian Shaofeng could become the king of the four heavens, at least made the Los Angeles branch three points stronger.
Of course, with the incident of Xian Shaofeng's job-hopping, there are publishing houses that are making a lot of noise. A number of publishing houses have joined forces to denounce Shanshi's poaching behavior. But later, the parties Ji Wen and Xian Shaofeng stood up and showed the entire system of Shanshi Company. A system of novels, animations, games, and peripheral products. How many writers moved for a while, but more people changed jobs, and Shanshi Company formed a trend of sweeping all directions, of course, that is a later story......
——
"Auntie, what are you trying to do?" Let's see what Wang Ni looks like now...... Wearing Peking Opera costumes, and still wrinkled, you can see at a glance that this is a wrinkle left by sleeping. The hair is messy, and the most important thing is that there is actually a handful of hair standing on end, what is this? Silly?!
A cold look, with a touch of tiredness, and an image that doesn't match the face at all, this is the contrast in the legend.
"What's the matter?" Wang Ni half-squinted, lazy like a noble cat.
"Auntie, what is your image?"
"Me? What's wrong with me? Wang Ni walked to the waiting mirror, this Peking Opera costume made her frown, and then noticed the stupid hair on her head that stood up like an antenna, and reached out to press it, but as soon as the hand was released, the handful stood up again, and then Wang Ni repeated this action back and forth, comparing it with her hair, and repeating it back and forth.
"Puff......" Su Shichen couldn't help laughing, he had never seen the cold Wang Ni look so cute.
His laughter made Wang Ni's whole movement stop, and then she hurriedly rushed into the bathroom, of course, because of the slightly oversized Peking Opera costume, she walked a little stumbling.
Su Shichen looked around, there was obviously an oval depression on the sofa, obviously Wang Ni slept here before, the mobile phone was in the gap of the sofa, the sound was greatly reduced, no wonder no one answered after making so many calls.
Su Shichen leaned on the sofa and looked at the bedroom that had not closed the door, and the situation inside was ......
He sneaked up and went to the bedroom, which was a mess. The wardrobe was rummaged through, and the floor and bed were covered with Wang Ni's clothes, as if she had been robbed.
"Xiao Chen, what are you looking at?" Wang Ni's somewhat oozing voice came from behind him.
When I turned around, the dull hair on my head was gone, and the Peking Opera costume on my body had changed into the silver-gray evening dress from yesterday.
Su Shichen probably knew what was going on, yesterday was definitely Wang Ni who went home after getting drunk, and remembered what happened in Malaysia before, so he found the Peking Opera costume that he hadn't worn for a long time from the closet in a daze, put it on his body directly, and then jumped in the living room for a while, fell asleep on the sofa due to alcohol, and didn't wake up until he came. I have to say that Su Shichen is very talented in reasoning, and this is already nine times out of ten.
Wang Ni went into the house, picked up all the clothes, crumpled them, and threw them all into the closet, this way of tidying up is really simple...... Su Shichen bet that as soon as he opened the closet, the clothes inside would fall off. I only knew that Wang Ni often took out for convenience, but I didn't expect it to be like this in life.
This is the giant in business, the dwarf in life?
"I'll go to the company in a while, Xiao Chen, will you go?" After Wang Ni changed her clothes, she was about to go out to the company.
"I'm not going, by the way, aunt, come to my house for dinner tonight, my mother has made something delicious."
"Hmm......" Wang Ni responded.
In the evening, Su Shichen, father Su Jian, mother Wei Xin and Wang Ni had a meal together, and the next day Su Shichen got on a plane to Los Angeles.
"Superhero I Assemble" went on sale, and Su Shichen rushed to Los Angeles without any rest and began inhumane publicity, and at the same time learned the spirit of other people's web games on the Internet...... (To be continued......)
PS: ps: The company's plot is over, and there are still a few chapters, but some people say that these chapters are a bit off, so I will speed up the end......
