The second issue of "Contemporary" on June 5 was released as scheduled, and Jiang Yulou's works have attracted the attention of readers as always.

Before June, the best-selling book in the publishing industry was the single book "Secret Calculation", which sold more than 300,000 copies a month and stunned the world.

Even after two months, the sales of "Dark Calculation" have remained very stable, and occasionally for some special reasons, such as media interviews, radio dramas, etc., there will be a period of explosion.

What makes the industry even more envious is the book review of this novel, which has been in the category of rave reviews since its release. It's not that there are no bad reviews, but they can't set off a storm at all.

Due to the staggered fate, the 200,000 copies of this novel will not last long, and according to Meng Weizai's meaning, the contemporary intends to print another 300,000 copies.

Reprinted three times, this novel is on its way to selling a million copies a year.

In other words, he can get a total of 24,000 yuan for the printing of this book alone.

The print run of a book alone can be worth 20,000 yuan, which is exciting to think about.

In addition to the remuneration, Jiang Yulou's copyright fee and tape sales share also received soft hands.

In terms of royalties, it is mainly the distribution of the radio series "Secret Calculation", and 20 radio stations have introduced radio dramas. Each family had a hundred yuan, and Jiang Yulou received a total of 1,000 yuan.

There is also a share of tape sales, at present, 3,000 sets are sold in Yanjing, and Jiang Yulou can earn one yuan per set, which is 3,000 yuan.

It was also in this extremely hot situation that "Love Letters" was published.

Taking advantage of this craze, the sales of the June 5 issue of "Contemporary" were booming, and the sales of 10,000 copies on the first day attracted the attention of many booksellers.

In a good situation, the news that "Love Letter" is about to be published in the newspaper has also attracted a lot of attention.

The first day of publication of a novel is unprecedented.

If it was someone else's work, everyone would definitely think it was nonsense, but Jiang Yulou was different.

If readers were asked to select the most famous writers in the first half of '79 and '80, they would definitely choose Jiang Yulou without hesitation.

His name has exploded in the literary circle in the past two years.

Meng Weizai came to him and told him about the single book.

The single book will be launched in September, and the remuneration is still the highest standard, and the first printing is still 100,000 copies.

There is no problem with Jiang Yulou at this point, there is not much difference between the morning market and the evening market.

Then there are the letters of requests, not mentioned last year, since this year's "Secret Calculation" became popular, the number of letters of manuscripts has increased day by day.

In the face of countless letters or phone calls, Jiang Yulou could only politely decline, and a person's energy is limited after all.

You don't care about other people's requests, but he has to take the letter from Shuzhong's magazine, "Science Fiction World" (actually called "Science Fiction Literature and Art" at this time).

It's not that "Science Fiction World" is so good.

In fact, since the founding of this magazine, in the entire 40 years to the following generations, the maximum circulation was only 400,000 copies, and when it was small, there were only a few hundred copies per issue, which was far less than the four famous journals in China.

If it was a normal time, he would definitely not pay attention to their requests. Coincidentally, he is currently working on the science fiction novel "Jurassic Park".

The novel has been confirmed to be published in the United States, but it seems unreasonable not to publish it in China.

It doesn't seem like much now, but after a few decades, he is afraid that it will become an excuse for others to attack him.

There won't be much difference between the left and right versions, and writing hundreds of thousands of words won't tire him to death.

The editor-in-chief of "Science Fiction World" is Yang Xiao, and speaking of this editor-in-chief, it is quite legendary.

She herself is a native of Shuzhong, graduated from Beihang University, and returned to Shuzhong after graduation, and then worked in the editorial department of "Science Fiction World", successively serving as editor, editor-in-chief and president.

It can be said that the first half of her life was dedicated to "Science Fiction World".

Submitting articles to this magazine also hopes that the development of domestic science fiction literature will be smoother.

So, Jiang Yulou specially called Yang Xiao, the editor-in-chief of "Science Fiction World", and Yang Xiao was very happy to receive his call.

Since the beginning of this year, Jiang Yulou can be said to be the hottest writer in China. Her name came to her ears even more often than her lover.

Especially this year, he has published several works one after another, and his influence is very great.

Recently, Jiang Yulou posted a "Love Letter" on "Contemporary", the creative efficiency is amazing, not to mention for the time being, what really moved her was the feelings contained in it.

Of course, if it was just like that, she wouldn't have written a letter to Jiang Yulou to ask for a draft. Until she had a friend who heard that Jiang Yulou had published a short story in the American magazine "Asimov Science Fiction".

At first, she thought it was a friend who had heard the rumors. It wasn't until she saw the magazine that she was convinced that what her friend said was true.

Yulou Jiang。

Except for Jiang Yulou, she couldn't think of anyone else.

After reading this short science fiction novel, she was also shocked. I don't know if the structure of his head is really different from that of ordinary people, otherwise how would he come up with such a good science fiction story.

So, Yang Xiao wrote a letter of appointment to Jiang Yulou. She wasn't sure if Jiang Yulou would agree, mainly because she wanted to try. She also knows how popular Jiang Yulou is now, and how many publications across the country want to ask him for an appointment.

And "Science Fiction Magazine", don't look at the provincial science and technology association, in fact, it is still a magazine that does not enter the stream. Not to mention comparing it with "Harvest", even "Contemporary" in the same year can't be compared.

After all, behind "Contemporary" is still people's literature.

Who would have thought that when even she didn't have hope, she really received a call from Jiang Yulou.

"Is it Editor-in-Chief Yang? I'm Jiang Yulou. ”

"Hello, eh? You...... You are Mr. Jiang! ”

Yang Xiao covered her mouth, tears in her eyes.

She couldn't believe her ears when she received a call from Jiang Yulou.

"Well, I've been working on a science fiction novel lately, and I'm worried about having nowhere to publish it, so I thought of you. As for the manuscript fee......"

"You agreed to our magazine's request? What, long science fiction? That's great! Royalties? There is no problem with the manuscript fee, it must be in accordance with the highest standards in China! ”

Yang Xiao was a little incoherent, until she hung up the phone, she was still in a dream.

Jiang Yulou promised Yang Xiao on the phone to write a sci-fi feature and post it on "Science Fiction World".

He knew that the magazine had some difficulties in terms of funding, but he would not compromise on the remuneration.

After all, this head is not easy to open.

Putting down the phone, he also scratched his head a little. The English version of "Jurassic Park" needs to be finished soon, and there is a Chinese version waiting for him.
