030 The goal of the pit man
"However, we have always maintained an open attitude towards newcomers, and since these authors have their own demands, we can also properly consider whether the other party's requirements are reasonable." The bald editor-in-chief touched his head, and his right hand holding the pen kept tapping on the table, only to hear him continue: "Well, you just told the author that as long as the next book is better than this one, we can cooperate in the development of these derivative products, well, if the other party is not satisfied, we can consider adding such a paragraph to the contract, when adapting and authorizing, we must seek the opinions of the original author, if the original author does not agree, the adaptation right will become invalid......"
After listening to the words of the editor-in-chief, the editor-in-chief had a huge mouth and was speechless in surprise.
And this kind of operation?
Ate a whale. JPG
Seeing the surprised expression of his subordinates, the editor-in-chief coughed a few times and said: "Anyway, these adaptation rights can't be sold, it's better to take the initiative to show goodwill, if the other party really wants to go back, we can't set this precedent, otherwise every author wants to step on us, what should we do?" Let the other party set up a company and buy it back in the name of the company, woo, the price is not too high, all two million are packaged, of course, the other party's next book must be more than 50,000. ”
The editor-in-chief of "Gu Dong ......" swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, he reached out and touched the sweat on his forehead, and said, "Editor-in-chief, is this asking price a little too high?" ”
Hearing the question of his subordinates, the editor-in-chief glanced at the editor-in-chief suspiciously, and asked with a smile: "Do you think that if the other party publishes a book, the score of the next book can reach 50,000?" ”
When the editor-in-chief heard this, he immediately shook his head with a wry smile.
Under Jiang Huo's painstaking hype, the novel "Zhu Xian" has only reached an average of more than 35,000, although there is a trend of continuing to rise, but at most it is only back to 50,000, and it is almost impossible to continue to rise. The editor-in-chief's condition is that the average order for the next book will reach 50,000! It's simply an impossible task!
Unless! Unless the novel written by the other party can attract the attention of the world!
But, is this possible?
The editor-in-chief was skeptical.
"Well, let's do it first, you reveal these two pieces of information to the other party, and see how this one will react." The bald editor-in-chief touched his head proudly, he was not worried that Jiang Huo would be provoked to seal his pen.
The reason is also very simple, mainly because Jiang Huo himself took the initiative to ask to sign a platinum contract, so the bald editor-in-chief dared to open his mouth and wanted a piece to his stomach, and directly tied Jiang Huo to his battleship.
As for Jiang Huo, he really wrote a book with an average order of 50,000.
The editor-in-chief will admit it.
Anyway, he felt that in its current form, it was simply impossible, and the difficulty of the matter was about the same as that of a human landing on the moon!
When Jiang Huo saw the penguin message sent by the other party, his white face suddenly pulled down.
Jiang Huo's eyebrows frowned, a Sichuan character appeared on his forehead, and a look of annoyance appeared between his eyebrows.
Damn, I'm too proud!
Jiang Huo stretched out his hand and patted his head, regretting it.
If I hadn't been carried away by the results and behaved so eagerly, I'm afraid the other party would not have made such an unequal treaty. Two million to buy all the rights back? Why don't you know the market when I don't know? The sale price of the film and television copyright of a recent novel is only 200,000!
Even if you add miscellaneous adaptation rights, it will be less than two million!
It's a money grab!
"What a damn thing!"
Jiang Huosu clenched his fist and slammed the computer desktop hard, making a dull loud noise.
Of course, that's not the point!
The focus is on the 50,000 average results proposed by the other party!
(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
This kind of special copy of any book can't reach 50,000 yuan!
This is simply a goal that cannot be accomplished, right?
"Ahh I'm annoyed, I'm annoyed, I'm annoyed Jiang Huo kept scratching her hair with both hands, and her long hair, which was originally soft and drooping, was made like a chicken nest by herself, and she was in chaos.
If you want to reach 50,000 per book, there is definitely no way to plagiarize those novels that were popular on the Internet in your previous life, and it is almost a fool's dream to use Xiaobaiwen to achieve this result.
However, those acclaimed literary masterpieces are often not popular, and it is difficult to attract everyone's attention! Moreover, these books are all physically published works, and if they are serialized on the Internet, it is not known what will happen.
Jiang Huo recalled in his mind the best-selling books in his previous life, the number one "Bible" already existed, and even if it didn't exist, Jiang Huo couldn't plagiarize it; As for the second-ranked "Red Book", there is no need to say more, right?
In addition to these two books that have sold more than one billion yuan, there are not many of the remaining books that can be plagiarized. If you want to achieve a 50,000 average score, you must meet at least two points.
First, at the very least, it must be popular all over the world, if you only satisfy your own people's desire to read, it is too difficult to achieve this result. Second, at the very least, it must be able to overturn piracy, if you can't even rip pirated copies, then this achievement will definitely shrink a lot.
Then, now in front of Jiang Huo, there are only two choices.
Thinking of this, Jiang Huo immediately opened the webpage and searched for two titles on Du Niang in turn, and the two books with memories in his mind did not exist in the world. After looking at the search results displayed on the screen, Jiang Huo had a bottom in her heart, and she tapped on the keyboard with both hands and replied to the penguin message.
"How, what did the other party say?" Hearing the sound of the mobile phone ringing, the bald editor-in-chief immediately raised his head and looked at the editor-in-chief sitting opposite.
"Well, the other party has a new reply, but it's just ......" After reading the message sent by Jiang Huo, the editor-in-chief said: "It's just that the other party said that the next works will only give us authorization for electronic reading, and even physical publishing is unwilling to give us." ”
Hearing the words of the editor-in-chief, the bald editor-in-chief immediately laughed, and the smooth head reflected a glow under the illumination of the light.
"Such an arrogant author? I don't know who gave her confidence? A hyped work dares to argue with us? The bald editor-in-chief thought for a while, then nodded and said: "In this way, let the people from the legal department draw up the contract, it is best to come up with terms similar to the VAM agreement, if the other party does not achieve this result, all authorizations belong to us, and she only has the right to share......"
Seeing that the boss was officially speaking, and the editor-in-chief was not good at saying something, he immediately answered, turned around and left the editor-in-chief's office, and hurriedly walked towards the legal department downstairs.
