Chapter 262: Overseas Publication of Other Novels
“…… Mr. Carroll, I have urged several times before, and a total of 400,000 copies of the Imperial Epic in all languages have been printed, and 300,000 copies have already been printed, just waiting to be distributed to the various channels. ”
"Yes! Then it seems that there is enough time, so let the printing house print more...... 100,000 copies. Stock up in advance. ”
“…… Mr. Carroll. I don't have any opinion about your bullishness about Imperial Epic, because I'm too, but I still need to warn you. Doing so would add up a lot of money. In fact, we don't have to do this, and continuing to print it later will not affect the sales of "Imperial Epic". ”
"I knew there would be a backlog, which is why I would only continue to print another 100,000 copies, otherwise I would like to print more, a million copies, in advance?"
"In addition, you are wrong, the lack of stock will affect sales, I don't want to slow down the pace of "Imperial Epic" hitting the sales record because of this kind of thing, nothing can stop "Imperial Epic" from returning to his throne!"
Carol was a bit fanatical. One of his works on ABC is like this,
This was the case with "Seven Sins" before, and it was also the case with "Imperial Epic".
Lina looked at Carol's fanatical appearance, a little helpless.
But Carol just smiled at Lena again,
"Lady Lina, don't you have faith in the Imperial Epic?"
"Of course there is enough confidence."
With Carol's words, Lina thought of some plots of the "Imperial Epic",
Then I felt that Carroll's approach seemed to be nothing, and even some agreed.
"That's good! Then notify the printing house. ”
"Also, there's one more thing. "Imperial Epic" won the award. Europa Literary Award for Best Feature. ”
Carol said with a smile.
Lina's eyes lit up.
"That way, I'm more confident."
As a reader who has read the Imperial Epic,
She believes that every reader who opens the "Imperial Epic" will fall in love with this work,
But sometimes, many people just need such a reason to open the book.
The reason for this can be the non-stop propaganda of Bert Press,
It can also be the word-of-mouth that "Imperial Epic" has gradually fermented,
It can also be the honors and awards that "Epic of Empires" has received.
"This year's Europa Literary Prize for Best Feature-Winning Novel, 'Imperial Epic', is cool!"
Carol said with a smile on her face.
"Then I'll go and inform the printing house."
Lena went out. Carol was still full of excitement,
Excitedly walking back and forth in the office.
He wants to win the "Imperial Epic" after the award,
Released in other languages of Imperial Epic,
Get Imperial Epic back to its throne faster!
……
"Carol: Mr. A, your work has won an award! The Europa Literary Award for Best Novel, which has been decided, is your work.
Carol: This year's judging is quite normal. Who could say no to such an epic work.
Carol: Also, yesterday your work was selling very well. ”
When Ji Zhuo got the news, he had already woken up at noon the next day.
Looking at the message Carol sent him in the middle of the night last night,
"Good news" mixed with rainbow farts.
Ji Zhuo didn't feel much,
After all, the current task of the system has been completed.
He is now just waiting for the system's current target of 450,000 sales to be completely achieved.
I didn't ask Carol why she got the news in advance,
After all, people have already said before, and there are their own people among the judges.
"Clumsy and extraordinary: Well, thank you."
I replied to such a message as usual.
Ji Zhuo didn't talk to Carol anymore,
I was a little interested in the message from his penguin chat, another editor-in-chief who hadn't been in touch for a long time.
"Editor-in-Chief Lou of Delvin Press: Mr. Ji, do you have time at this time?"
Delvin Publishing House is the publishing house that has published various overseas editions of Ji Zhuo's "Caged Bird".
The last time the editor-in-chief Lou looked for him, he won the award for "Caged Bird".
This time it's won again?
But it doesn't look like this way of speaking?
didn't think about it, Ji Zhuo replied with a message.
"Clumsy and extraordinary: what's the matter with Editor-in-Chief Lou?
Editor-in-Chief Lou: There are some things that need to be discussed with Mr. Ji. ”
Ji Zhuo's message was sent over, and the editor-in-chief Lou soon had another message back.
"Editor-in-Chief Lou: Mr. Ji, your Caged Bird has performed very well overseas in recent months.
Editor-in-Chief Lou: Our publishing house and Mr. Ji, your cooperation is quite pleasant, right?
Clumsy and extraordinary: It's a pleasure...... After all, you're pretty quick to settle the money. ”
Ji Zhuo is telling the truth, the royalty share that Delwin Publishing House gave him is basically very simple,
At present, it is basically closed once every two months, and it has not been delayed.
"Editor-in-Chief Lou: Haha, Mr. Ji, our publishing house naturally dare not default on your royalties.
Editor-in-Chief Lou: This time, I am looking for you, Mr. Ji, mainly because I want to build on the smooth cooperation before and then have some new cooperation. ”
Speaking of which, Ji Zhuo naturally probably understood what the editor-in-chief Lou of Delvin Publishing House wanted to do.
"Clumsy and extraordinary: which of my books did your publisher like again?
Editor-in-Chief Lou: It's not about any one of them, but we are all very interested in Mr. Ji's works, after all, every one of your works is very good.
Clumsy and extraordinary: Which one did you like this time?
Editor-in-Chief Lou: It's Mr. Ji, two of your works. "Seven Days of Hell" and "Hour Leap to Death".
Editor-in-Chief Lou: We would like to obtain the overseas publishing rights of your two works, so that we can publish them in various languages. It's like "Caged Bird" before.
Clumsy and extraordinary: "Seven Days of Hell" and "Hour Leap to Death"? ”
To the Delvin Publishing House wants to obtain the overseas publishing rights of "Seven Days of Hell",
Ji Zhuo is not too surprised, after all, "Seven Days of Hell" is also science fiction like "Caged Bird".
Naturally, Delvin Publishers, which has already achieved excellent results in Caged Bird, will also be interested in Seven Days of Hell.
As for "Hour Jumping to Death", it is science fiction, it is somewhat almost meaningful, and it is closer to horror.
However, "The Hour Leap to Death" was published overseas...... It is estimated that Pioneer Film and Television is quite happy.
Don't care if the anime of "Hour Hand" can be seen abroad,
However, the expansion of the popularity of "Hour Hand" and the increase in the value of copyright are good things for Pioneer Film and Television.
Thinking about these messy thoughts, Ji Zhuo received a reply from Editor-in-Chief Lou again.
"Editor-in-Chief Lou: Yes, I don't know if you can agree, Mr. Ji.
Clumsy and extraordinary: In principle, I agree. ”
Ji Zhuo thought about it, and the overseas publishing houses he was familiar with were Delvin Press and Bert Press.
Obviously, it is impossible for him to let Bert Press publish his work on the surface again, isn't that exposed?
It is not impossible to hand over the overseas publication of Delvin Press, after all, the previous cooperation was quite pleasant.
"Editor-in-Chief Lou: What are Mr. Ji's special conditions?"
As we all know, words have a prefix, which can basically be regarded as the second half.
"Clumsy and extraordinary: the conditions are not available. It's just that I can directly license you the copyright of "Hour Leap to Death", but the copyright issue of "Seven Days of Hell" is more complicated. I may need to ask for the next reading. ”
"Seven Days of Hell" is a work of Ji Zhuo in the period of the first reading station,
is not quite the same as the later works, "Seven Days of Hell" has part of the copyright in the hands of Shi Yue.
At least Ji Zhuo also has to communicate with Fei Mo or Shi Yue.com.
Editor-in-Chief Lou: That's ...... Need we all three of us sit down and talk?
Clumsy and Extraordinary: Hmm...... Let me ask first. ”
Ji Zhuo ended the exchange with Editor-in-Chief Lou,
After thinking about it, I sent a message to Bimo.
