At two o'clock in the afternoon, Li Fan and publishers from various countries met in a private room in Xianyuanlou.
When Li Fan entered the private room, there were already a dozen people in it. Seeing Li Fan coming in, they all got up and greeted Li Fan.
Li Fan smiled and responded one by one, knowing everyone one by one.
These 10 people come from six different countries, all of which are on the European continent, including Finland, Switzerland, and Italy.
At the same time, these 10 people represent more than 10 different publishing houses. Obviously, some of these publishing houses are from the same country.
The publishing houses that dare to come to the Three Holy Village and find Li Fan to buy the publishing rights are undoubtedly powerful publishing houses.
In this way, bidding is naturally indispensable. For Li Fan, this is undoubtedly a good thing. The more people who compete, the higher the price they will sell.
For publishers, this is the last thing they want to do.
They compete with each other, so that they get the copyright they want, and the price they spend is bound to be much higher than when there is no competition.
However, there is no alternative to this. Who made them slow down this time. If the response is slow, you will have to pay a higher price.
Li Fan knew it well, but he was not in a hurry to talk about business, but he said with a smile: "Everyone should eat here at noon today? I don't know if you can get used to the food here. ?"
When publishers from various countries see Li Fan not in a hurry to discuss business matters, they are not in a hurry. Since they have already seen Li Fan, they are not in a hurry for a while.
At this time, when Li Fan mentioned the noon food, all the publishers' eyes lit up.
Among them, Moyetta from the Tallinn Publishing House in Finland said very excitedly: "Mr. Li Fan, when it comes to food at noon, it is really great. Originally, I thought I would be quite unaccustomed to the food here, because here The way the food is adjusted is very different from our country.
But who knows, after trying to eat a little bit, I found that it is unspeakably delicious. I have never eaten such delicious food, even in our country.
I asked the waiter why the food here is so delicious? The waiter told me that all the ingredients used in the food here come from the Xianyuan Farm in the village.
Next, I learned that Xianyuan Farm is also the property of Mr. Li Fan.
Oh! I was really surprised. In addition to literary creation, Mr. Li Fan can also grow such delicious ingredients. It is a magical farm, which is really incredible. "
Moyetta said a long string of words in one breath, and after finishing speaking, he kept giving Li Fan a thumbs up.
It wasn't that he deliberately pleased Li Fan, but that apart from writing a book, Li Fan had such a magical farm, which really surprised him.
Later, Ramos from Rego Skop Publishing also said: "I completely agree with Moyetta's statement, because the food I ate at noon today is also the best food I have ever eaten.
I deliberately went to the vegetable section of the farm to take a look. Oh, God, those vegetables are beautiful like plants of art.
Our country also has vegetables, but I have never seen such beautiful vegetables. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never believe that there would be such beautiful vegetables in the world. "
After Moyetta and Ramos, the others expressed similar views. The food they ate at noon really surprised them.
Suddenly, what everyone talked about was all related to food and farms. It was like a food culture exchange summit.
As for copyright matters that should have been really discussed, everyone seems to have forgotten about it.
Li Fanzi was so happy. Selling the copyright is important, but it is also important to let these publishers go back to China to promote Xianyuan Farm.
Xianyuan Farm is going to the world in the end, and publishers from these countries are obviously Li Fan's best free advertising carrier.
Publishers have such a cooperative relationship with the media and magazine industries in their respective countries. Once they go back to promote it, they are likely to get some unexpected gains.
After a while, everyone slowly ended the topic of food and farming, and began to enter the real topic of today.
After a series of discussions and bidding, Li Fan reached cooperation agreements with publishers in various countries.
There are two ways of cooperation in its cooperation agreement. One is that the publisher buys out the exclusive publishing rights in their respective countries.
For example, the Tallinn Publishing House in Finland obtained the exclusive publishing copyright of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" at a price of 13.6 percentage points.
Another type of cooperation agreement is that multiple publishing houses in a country share publishing copyrights.
In this way, the market for each publishing house is certainly much smaller, but the price paid for buying publishing rights is also much less.
For example, two publishing houses from Switzerland, Scoop Publishing and Danica Publishing House, each share the price of 7 percent, and jointly own the publishing rights of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" in Switzerland. .
After the copyright related matters were negotiated, the atmosphere at the scene relaxed again.
The publishers who have successfully obtained the publishing rights are delighted, and the publishers who have not obtained the publishing rights, although regret and frustrated, are not in a bad mood.
Among other things, just discovering that there is such a delicious food in this far east is enough to make them feel better.
After the conference, Li Fan invited the publishers to visit the village, and the publishers readily agreed.
They have long discovered that the scenery of this village is very beautiful, but because of copyright issues before, they don't have much thoughts to appreciate the scenery.
Now that the copyright matter is settled, no matter whether the result is satisfied or not, it can be put down temporarily after all.
Li Fan took the publishers to visit many places in the village, and also visited the game breeding area, game hunting ground, livestock breeding area, weir pond, vegetable area and other places.
Along the way, the voices of admiration and surprise from publishers have hardly been interrupted.
The publishers also wanted to stare at the towering Baiyun Mountain, but because of time, they didn't make the trip, which made the publishers feel sorry for a while.
In the evening, Li Fan hosted a banquet in the Xianyuan Building to entertain a group of publishers, and the guests and hosts had a great time.
After the banquet, the publishers rested directly in the Xianyuan Building, and Li Fan went straight back home.
