Yuan Huaying made a final decision and agreed to the request of China Literature, and the magazine also changed its money-making strategy and directly published a book for "Poetry and the Sea".

Several editors were excited, and they didn't do less to publish a book, and they were veterans.

But publishing a book for "Poetry and the Sea" is extraordinary, and its sales may explode, which is very likely to trigger a book-buying frenzy in science fiction circles.

It is estimated that the sales volume must be in the millions, after all, even the 101 issues of the magazine have sold nearly 200,000 copies, and that is only 20,000 words serialized.

"China Literature earns money online, we make money offline, okay, let's open the whole!" Liu Qiang was full of energy, if it wasn't too late, he would have to contact Chu He immediately.

But Yuan Huaying was still pondering, and Mr. Ye also began to ponder.

Liu Qiang was puzzled: "President, Mr. Ye, what are you thinking?" ”

"How to calculate the appropriate royalties." Mr. Ye replied, showing a wry smile, "I didn't expect to talk to Chu He about copyright fees now, I thought it would be 500,000 words later." ”

Copyright fees are a very sensitive thing, even if the relationship between the editor and the author is good, and it is related to interests, both parties will try their best to pull it.

If "Science Fiction World" wants to publish a physical book, it must be rushing to make a lot of money, so it is necessary to try to suppress the price of Chu River.

If the lion opens his mouth and asks for tens of millions of copyright fees, the magazine will vomit blood.

In fact, according to the popularity of "Poetry and the Sea", tens of millions of copyright fees are worth it, but that has to wait until the end is over, and now the new book is just beginning, it is impossible for a fool to pay tens of millions of copyright fees, millions are risky, who knows if the follow-up performance of "Poetry and the Sea" is worth the investment?

"It's really troublesome, if Chu He's asking price is too high, we can't afford it, and the relationship will be stiff, this matter must be pondered carefully to safeguard the interests of both parties." Yuan Huaying's fingers tapped on the table, as daring as she was at the moment.

Even if a magazine can afford a high price, it does not mean that it is willing to pay a high price.

Liu Qiang looked at Mr. Ye and then at Yuan Huaying, and said cautiously: "Are you thinking too much?" I don't think Chu Xiaohe is like a greedy person, he has always expressed his gratitude to me, and he has never been arrogant. ”

Mr. Ye looked at him: "It's not like this when talking about copyright, Chu Xiaohe is now a high god, how can he be so easy to talk in front of money." ”

Mr. Ye has been the editor-in-chief for ten years, and he has seen too many such things.

The magazine has worked hard to cultivate the great god, but as a result, the great god has swelled and demanded many thieves, as if he has a grudge against the magazine to kill his father.

Once the bottom line of the magazine is touched, the two sides will collapse and break up unhappily.

Mr. Ye's biggest worry is that he will break up unhappily, if "Poetry and the Sea" runs away, all his efforts will be in vain.

"Can you learn from online texts and make a sharing model?" Yuan Huaying's eyes suddenly lit up. Several people looked at her suspiciously: "What is the sharing model?" ”

"I came here to read literature, and we don't directly give much copyright fees, but directly publish books, and we can make fifty-five percent of how much money we make, so as to ensure that the magazine does not lose money." Yuan Huaying showed an expression of interest, I have to say that her thinking is too jumpy, she can come up with this.

"No magazine has ever done this, and if that's the case, the author will be upset, right? If you don't give money first, where will people give you the copyright? This shows the author of the pit. Liu Qiang was the first to object.

This is too messy, it is estimated that except for Yuan Huaying, no other president will do this, and the physical book publishing model has been messed up by her.

"Liu Qiang, you can knock Chu Xiaohe tomorrow and talk about it for half a month." Yuan Huaying was not in a hurry, clapped her hands and dispersed, and took her time.

"Yes." Liu Qiang was a little uneasy in his heart, Chu Xiaohe is his thigh, don't talk about it, it's better for the president to give up the sharing model.

The next day, it was ten o'clock in the morning.

Chu He was running on the beach for fitness, exercising against the sea breeze, and sweating.

Then he went to take a bubble bath, and then went upstairs and called Su Muyan: "Su Muzhu, get up and paint." ”

"What do you call me?" Su Muyan, who was sleepy-eyed, opened the door, and there was a cold light in his half-open eyes.

"My name is Su Muyan." Chu He was puzzled, "Why are you angry?" ”

"Really? How do you feel like you're scolding me? Go away, I've got to sleep. Su Muyan refused to get up.

"You're graduating next month, aren't you? Obviously you came to me to learn to draw, but you end up playing games and sleeping lazy every day. Chu He squinted.

Su Muyan cut off: "What's the hurry?" With my talents, I can learn in a few days. I'm going to find my sister when I've slept enough, she may not be in a good mood, I'm going to accompany her, and I'm not going to paint today. ”

She slammed the door shut.

What a diligent girl.

Chu He shook his head and went back to the bedroom.

Since Su Muyan is lazy, then he doesn't have to bother himself, let's look at the situation of books on the Internet.

As soon as I logged in to the chat software, the editor Liu Qiang's message came.

"Mr. Chu, are you there?" This message is followed by a smiley face.

Chu He immediately felt that something was wrong, it was impossible for an old editor like Liu Qiang to "do a homework", he had always been straightforward.

In fact, in an industry like editing, people hate to ask "Are you there?" the most. Everyone just said something, said it and left, and waited for the other party to reply and then look at it.

"Ah, what's wrong?" Chu He asked.

"Haha that's the case, have you followed China Literature? Your book is so popular that China Literature asks us to update it every day. Liu Qiang's tone revealed a sense of caution.

Chu River blinked, updated daily?

"Yes, I agree." Chu He had no reason to refuse, he was now a little guilty towards his readers, and he wished he could update it every day.

"That's okay, we'll arrange professionals to update it for you, don't you worry, haha, have you eaten?" Liu Qiang asked again.

Well? Have you eaten?

Chu He scratched his head, what happened to Liu Qiang?

In the editorial department, a group of people gathered behind Liu Qiang, and Mr. Ye was also there.

Several people were speechless, and Mr. Ye patted Liu Qiang: "You said that it was scheduled to be published, why are you grinding and chirping?" ”

"Afraid of what? We don't owe him anything, just say it. The rest of the editors also urged.

Liu Qiang's old face twitched, you urged me to say, in case the talk collapses, Nima is my responsibility.

"Ahem, Mr. Ye, come on, please take a seat." Liu Qiang got up and gave up the throne.

Mr. Ye pressed him back: "No need, Lao Liu, I can trust you, I have negotiated to invite you to eat crayfish tonight." ”

Eat your sister!

Liu Qiang secretly scolded in his heart, he was bound to take the blame.

At this time, Chu He responded: "Editor, let's talk about anything, everyone is a friend." ”

Chu He's words can be described as warm.

Several editors even urged Liu Qiang: "Say it quickly." ”

Liu Qiang typed hard: "That's the case, because "Poetry and the Sea" is going to be serialized every day, so "Science Fiction World" magazine is scrapped. We are going to publish a physical book for you, "Poetry and the Sea I.", a total of 200,000 words, and I think you also have 180,000 words, just in time for a big climax......"

Liu Qiang said a lot, but he didn't talk about copyright fees.

Chu He himself didn't pay attention to the copyright fee, and he was quite surprised to hear the news.

I'm going to publish a book?

Chu He has a deep love for "Poetry and the Sea", he is both the author and the reader, and the person who can best understand "Poetry and the Sea".

It's great to be able to publish a book.

"Okay, you're in charge, thank you." Chu He responded very bluntly.

Editorial department, Liu Qiang and others were stunned, this is it?
