Chapter 53

Twelve points of royalties, in fact, is really good.

In fact, if you look at the royalty figures alone, twelve points already belong to the treatment of best-selling authors, which is definitely a medium or even upper level. If you go up to fifteen points, it will be the level of the great god author. For Sun Peng, who has never had a written publication, such a ratio is definitely worthy of his novels, even if the novels are Condor Shooting and Xiaoao.

But......

“…… The key lies in the adaptation rights of the novel! ”

Regarding Lin Lin's doubts, Sun Peng patiently explained: "If it was just a simple book publishing contract, I would have agreed to it a long time ago, but the reason why I say it is an ordinary bestseller contract is because they require this contract to be signed for 20 years, and it must also include film and television and game adaptation rights, which is absolutely unacceptable to me, even if they promise to share the profits of the adaptation in the future, it is impossible!" ”

"Sizzle......"

After listening to Sun Peng's words, Lin Lin suddenly gasped!

Oh, my God! That's not good enough?

Pretending to be forced is going to be struck by lightning!

After trembling for a long time, Lin Lin pulled the corners of her mouth and sighed, "You kid...... This is to heaven! ”

Think about it, who is the last person in Lao Sun's house whose text was printed?

If Lin Lin remembers correctly, his eldest uncle once published a book on ancient Chinese literature, which is said to have sold less than 1,600 copies in total, except for the 4,000 copies he himself underwrote for teaching. Even so, the old man occasionally mentions it at family gatherings, and it is quite a remarkable thing that something written by the meaning of the words becomes a lead letter......

Look at Sun Peng, this is the best-selling author? Did you bargain with other publishers?

In Sun Peng's tone, there was a taste called taking it for granted.

God knows why Scholar Publishing House is optimistic about Condor and Xiaoao, and would rather make a big concession on the royalty ratio, but also want to extend the term of the contract and win the follow-up adaptation rights. In order to be able to convince Sun Peng, they are even willing to give a very high proportion of adaptation rights dividends, hoping to impress this new writer.

But who is Sun Peng? Can you fall for this?

Although I don't know what Shuxiang Publishing House thinks, as a time-traveler, can Sun Peng not know the huge adaptation potential of the two books? Let's not talk about movies and games, just a TV series, how many times have Condor and Xiaoao been adapted? How many people have become popular?

Not to mention that opening your mouth is twenty years of physical publishing rights, are you kidding me?

If Sun Peng is really a newcomer who has just debuted, then there is really not much difference between five years and twenty years, because he doesn't have much bargaining power at all. But for the traverser, the best option is, of course, not to rush, and to take your time!

Sign a five-year one first, and then re-sign it when you become famous in the future!

It's just that this kind of performance is a little ignorant in the eyes of others, or arrogant, for example, Lin Lin pouted after a short shock: "Tsk, you really think of yourself as a well-known writer?" Did you know that only well-known writers have the right to choose? Especially in a big publishing house like Shuxiang, you guys who haven't published a book yet, you want to pick and choose......"

"Hehe, what's the matter if you don't publish it?"

Before Lin Lin could finish speaking, Sun Peng interrupted her and smiled, "Do you know my new book...... Well, what is the current collection of Xiaoao Jianghu? How much will I get paid for a month after it is released? ”

"Uh......"

Hearing this, Lin Lin suddenly fell silent.

After seeing the results of Xiao Ao and Condor Archery, Lin Lin was inexplicably disappointed, but also worked hard to study it, so she knew that the conditions given to her cousin by the publishing house were not bad. Similarly, she also figured out the approximate income of online novels, and understood that although Condor Shooting is free, Xiao Ao, who is now extremely popular, can definitely make a lot of money!

"Humph! Flatter yourself! ”

Thinking about it, Lin Lin pinched Sun Peng fiercely!

It's not cool!

This inexplicable feeling has been pestering Lin Lin for a long time, on the one hand, she is proud of her brother's success, and she has to spend time almost every day to see Xiao Ao's situation; On the other hand, a guy who grew up with her since she was a child and was about the same age, but who had always been worse than her, suddenly turned over, not only surpassing herself, but even her success largely depended on Sun Peng's words......

The loss caused by this sharp contrast, Lin Lin didn't fully accept it for a while.

If it was the original Sun Peng, he would definitely be at a loss, but at this moment, he faintly guessed the entanglement in his little cousin's heart, and said with a smile: "So, if I can't meet the conditions that satisfy me, I'd rather not publish a physical book, anyway, I can make a lot of money from online copyright, plus Brother Xiang said that he would give me another salary increase soon, can I be afraid that the money will not be enough to spend?" Tsk......"

Quietly, Sun Peng gave his little cousin's originally fragile little liver another knife.

“……”

Lin Lin felt so tired and didn't want to pay attention to this stinky guy anymore.

She is the same age as Sun Peng, and she calls herself a cousin every day, but she has not graduated from college yet, and even if she wants to be an Internet celebrity bean, she must rely on her cousin's script, as well as the funds and connections of her mother and prospective brother-in-law, but this guy in front of her is just studying a junior college, and now his salary is tens of thousands of dollars a month, and he is going to make a lot of money from the novel......

"Forget it, I won't compare with this guy in the future!"

Pouted, Lin Lin understood a little, if she had to continue to compete with this kid, she would have to die of heartbreak sooner or later!

Rolling her eyes, Lin Lin said weakly: "By the way, Brother Xiang told me that he wants to sign a new contract with you, starting from the second season of Crazy Lady, you will take the script and follow-up copyrights as shares, accounting for half of the shares...... Half of the script is complete, and the copyright is one percent! ”

"Oh? How does he plan to make a profit? ”

As soon as he heard the money, Sun Peng suddenly asked with a light in his eyes.

"Uh...... Seems to be for advertising shares, right? ”

Blinking his eyes, Lin Lin said with some uncertainty: "I don't know the specifics, but I seem to have heard him say that it is not cost-effective to sell out to the website at one time." ”

"A wise decision, I'll take it!"

With a slap, Sun Peng nodded with satisfaction.

With the current popularity of Mad Lady, how much money can you make by selling it out to the website? If you really sell it directly to the website, it will be a big loss!

"The key is publicity, and the publicity for the second season is important!"

After thinking about it for a while, Sun Peng said seriously: "I'll go and mention to Brother Xiang when I go to work tomorrow, I must invest some money to promote it in the second season!" ”

Why can Dick Silk men be so successful?

In addition to the fact that the content is fun and relevant to the needs of the real world, the hype of the website is definitely an extremely important factor. In this era of national entertainment, no matter how good your things are, they are useless without publicity. For example, Sun Peng's crazy lady who carefully selected jokes is definitely better than the dick silk man in terms of excitement, but the results are far from it, and the fundamental reason is the publicity......

Of course, Lin Lin and Dapeng's popularity is also 108,000 miles apart!

Of course, Lin Lin was happy to see this kind of thing as a crazy lady, and immediately nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "I think it's okay, you can talk to Brother Xiang when you go back, the publicity fee or something, you can invest more appropriately......
