Chapter 19

Want to increase the number of copies?

After answering the phone, Wang Jian himself was a little unprepared for the explosion of "I am the grand master".

He looked around. Some of the prisoners were holding "I am the grand master".

So, he can't help calculating.

How much profit can this book bring to itself?

In an hour.

Roy stops his Cadillac by the side of the road and looks at Wang Jian, who is picking up garbage.

Wang Jian, not far away, also saw Roy.

So, after taking a leave with lily, he quickly came to Roy's side.

Wang Jian pointed to the cafe by the road and motioned Roy to talk inside.

After the two ordered a cup of coffee, Roy took out five copies of I am the great mage and handed them to Wang Jian, "this is the book you want."

Then he took out a new contract and said to Wang Jian with a smile, "I think we have to sign another additional contract."

Wang Jian took the book and put it aside.

I picked up the contract again and looked at it.

A moment later, he looked up at Roy and asked, "the French and Latin editions, as well as the 100000 additional English editions, the royalty ratio is also 4%

"As far as I know, in the absence of guaranteed royalties, the proportion of royalties will increase correspondingly after the fire of a book, right?"

In fact, Wang Jian had seen these in the old man's press materials.

It's just that he never thought "I'm the great mage" could make a big fire.

And last night, after the emergency, he was a little flustered and didn't think so much.

After a day, he decided to fight for his share.

On the other side, Roy's hand, holding the coffee, quivered.

Finally, the worry happened.

In fact, when he signed the contract yesterday, he could increase the proportion of royalties.

However, he never considered Wang Jian a qualified novelist.

As for "I am a great mage", it's just an update of creativity and writing techniques.

Wang Jian's next novel will probably not be a best seller.

Because, he has not been engaged in the related work experience all the year round, also has not had the solid writing foundation.

It's good for a 17-year-old to write a best-selling book. Can he continue to have breakthrough inspiration and innovation?

That's not Wang Jian, that's Hemingway!

So, before signing the contract last time, he used words to make Wang Jian lose his mind in tension and ecstasy.

Then, take the benefits that Wang Jian could have obtained as the stepping stone from editor in chief to editor in chief.

But he did not expect that "I am the great mage" was so popular that he would continue to print it only one day later.

I didn't expect that a 17-year-old boy living in the Bronx would wake up from his illusory success and start to consider his own interests.

The smile on Roy's lips gradually disappeared and changed into the proper manner in business negotiations.

"So, how much do you want to improve?" As he pondered, he considered the psychological price he could accept.

As the editor in charge of "I'm the great mage", he has the right to give phenomenon level bestsellers a 10% royalty share.

However, the bottom line Roy can accept is 8%.

Because, according to the current sales momentum of "I am a wizard", the extra 2% should be able to ensure that he will become one of the youngest editors of the publishing house.

Wang Jian thought about it and offered a price he thought was higher.

“9%。”

Start with the price and pay it back.

After that, I can love the press.

It's a big deal. I don't want to go fishing with Roy.

Roy frowned slightly. He couldn't accept the price.

So, after thinking for a moment, he had to use his mace.

Although, he knew that once he used this method, the relationship between Xuele publishing house and Wang Jian would inevitably deteriorate.

"Your book is also about the 2pac shooting." Roy sat up straight and looked down at Wang Jian.

"The publishing house can reduce the circulation within five years and face the coming storm of public opinion with a more positive attitude."

Wang Jian frowned and stared at Roy.

This is snow hiding?

A dead fish catches a broken net, and both lose?

Five years later, who knows how much more I am the great mage can sell.

After all, the novel is just attractive in style and creativity.

And these are very easy to imitate.

At this time, they just looked at each other silently, and the atmosphere suddenly changed from friendly to cold.

All of a sudden, the TV in the cafe was transferred to fox.At this time, a reading program on Fox TV is also reporting the explosion of "I am the great mage" and various in-depth reports.

Then, the hostess said: "next, let's listen to the comments of the best-selling fantasy novelists on this phenomenal novel."

As soon as the camera turns, an old man appears in the camera.

At the bottom of the TV is Robert Jordan, the author of the wheel of time and a senior fantasy novelist.

"I don't deny that I am a wizard is an attractive novel, but I don't admit that it is a good novel, let alone a good fantasy novel."

"It's more like the self hypnosis of an otaku. I can't see the rigor of fantasy novels from it. "

Then, another middle-aged man appeared in the camera.

Below it is marked R. A. El Salvador, author of the Icewind Valley series and fantasy novelist.

He said: "fantasy novels are always synonymous with rigorous setting and grand world."

"From Mr. Tolkien's the Lord of the rings, fantasy novels have been accepted by serious literature through the efforts of generations. I don't want some works that are difficult to be elegant to fall into the category of fantasy novels. "

Finally, even this year's hot game, "Diablo" planning also appeared in the camera.

"Ha, that's also called fantasy fiction? Well, what are we trying to upgrade our game for? Let the game characters eat tacos together, ha ha

Roy listened to the report on TV, his eyes fixed on Wang Jian, and he could not help smiling.

"I'm the great mage" is belittled, the more intense the other party's idea of making a quick sum of money will be.

Then he and himself, in the new tax ratio of "I am the great mage", have weaker bargaining power.

At first, I just found that it has the potential to become a best seller.

At present, "I'm the wizard" has indeed become a best seller, and the recent sales will not be low.

As for the total sales in five years.

Ha ha.

I am neither the boss of Xuele publishing house nor the author of "I am the great mage".

Do you have to worry about yourself?

At the moment, however, Wang Jian did not care what Roy was laughing at.

Because, in his mind, on those bookshelves, the second novel finally appeared completely.

It was a novel with a blue cover.

On its cover, there is a handsome Western teenager.

Next to the boy, there are four big characters.

Arcane throne!
