The Royal poetry Publishing House accounts for the majority of the contribution fee, so they will not let themselves suffer. At this time, President Gerald made his request as a representative.
"Thank you for valuing the Swedish market of the collection of sentient beings. We have decided after discussion. His Swedish version has to be bought out for two million pounds. " Said Gerald.
The buyout fee of 2 million pounds is a reasonable price. After all, Kevin now has the status of British poet laureate. This identity has attracted a lot of sales. Therefore, after careful consideration, the Swedish translation press decided to buy it.
"We think it's acceptable for you to ask for 2 million pounds to buy out all living beings. After all, the collection of sentient beings is indeed a very excellent collection of poems. So, if there are no other problems, I think we can sign a contract tomorrow. After the contract comes into effect, we will publish the work in Sweden. " The other side said.
"Well, we'll see." Gerald said happily.
So, after chatting for a while, they said goodbye to each other. After all, the Swedish translation press has to go back to prepare for tomorrow's contract, and Kevin goes back to the Royal poetry press with Gerald and Lewis.
"Kevin, you are wonderful. I didn't expect that the collection of all living beings could easily go out of the foreign market. " Back at the Royal poetry press, Louis told Kevin.
This work contains all the representative works of British literary giants on earth, and its market comprehensiveness has long been expected by Kevin. So Kevin was just happy, not too surprised. But this time, although he sold 2 million pounds, according to their sharing contract, Kevin didn't get much.
Kevin also learned from this incident that when he signed a new book contract with a publishing house in the future, he would have to pay 50% for the foreign copyright. Otherwise, it is too sorry for yourself, sorry for these classic works on earth.
"All right, Louis. You've said a lot of praise to me. Maybe we don't need to be so polite. "
"Ha ha, right? My God, your talent makes me not stingy of any praise Louis said with a smile.
The signed version of the 1000 volumes has not been completed yet, so Kevin plans to use the little time left today to sign more copies. After a few sips of tea and a little chat with Louis, he went to the room and seriously signed.
It wasn't until 6 p.m. that Kevin came out of the Royal poetry press. Louis was moved by Kevin's professionalism, so he stayed in the hall waiting for him and invited him to dinner.
Kevin has been busy for a long time. After coming back for a shower, he plans to go out for a walk in the night market of London to relax. After all, after writing the book, he left himself more to interact with readers on Twitter and attend this or that banquet.
Kevin walked slowly to the prince square outside the prince hotel. The square in England is different from that in China. Although it is very busy in the evening, there is not much dancing in the square. Besides, the garbage in the square is much less and the ground is clean.
"Hi! What a coincidence, Mr. Kevin, to meet you here. " At this point, a palm was on Kevin's shoulder.
Kevin turns to look at the sound and finds that it's the old man who came to London this afternoon to find his own Swedish translation press. The old man's name is rattis. So Kevin called him Mr. rattis.
"It's Mr. rattis. Nice to meet you here. It was a beautiful accident. " Kevin said with a smile.
"Ha ha, Mr. Kevin is so talented. Oh, since we met here, if you don't mind, let's sit down and have a snack. " Said latis.
It's not the first time that latis has come to London. He came to London for further study when he was young. So for London, he still has some vague memories. This time, taking advantage of the opportunity of business trip, he went to Prince square alone for a snack. By the way, he recalled some memories of studying here.
"Of course, I'm just a little hungry. So, as the host, I'd like to invite you to have a taste of British food. " Kevin said sincerely.
"Great, thank you for the host's invitation." Laetis said happily.
So they sat down in a snack bar near Prince square. Latis has seen Kevin's the sentient beings several times. As a publisher, he certainly knows the perfection of this poetry collection. So, he loved it so much. Just because he liked it, he decided to take it to the Swedish market this time.
Latis has always been very curious about how rich his inner thoughts are for those who can write such excellent poems as the collection of living beings. So, taking this opportunity, he also plans to have a good chat with Kevin.
"Mr. Kevin, I am full of curiosity about you. Can you tell me that you have been exposed to poetry since childhood and have written poetry since childhood?" After ordering their own food, laetis turns his curiosity into a question and throws it directly to Kevin.
"No, dear Mr. rattis, if I told you that I was less than a year old to write poetry, would you believe it?" Kevin shook his head and said.
"What, less than half a year? Of course I won't believe it. After all, you are so excellent in all living beings that you don't have a certain amount of talent. It can't be written Latis said immediately.
"But that's true, dear Mr. rattis. I don't want to lie to you. I did write poetry in less than a year. Of course, poetry has long been in my mind. Even if I don't write poetry, I always have a poetic heart. That's why I write faster than most people. "
Kevin once again put forward his "poetic heart" theory, which he mentioned many times in his last conversation with David Lee. This time, he also intends to use the theory of "poetic heart" to deceive the past.
This theory can make David Lido, a famous poetry critic, marvel. Naturally, as a publisher, laetis is the same. When he heard Kevin's "poetic heart" theory, he had deeply felt the difference of this young poet laureate.
