Almighty Star System

Yang Na was about to leave, but when she heard what Yan Ke said, she sat down again.

"Mr. Yan, what do you mean?" Yang Na asked curiously.

"Actually, it's nothing. It's just that I have a novel that needs to be published in simplified Chinese. Let's see if your publishing house can publish it." Yan Ke said casually.

"Publish a novel?"

Yang Na frowned, they are a small publishing house, publishing some collections of poetry and personal anthologies is okay.But when it comes to novels, it's not just one or two episodes, it's many episodes.

"That's right, it's still a serial novel." Yan Ke said.

Now Yang Na is even more speechless. The serialized novels are online novels, right?
Nowadays, there are millions of words on the Internet, and if they really want to be published in simplified Chinese, how many volumes will they have?Their publishing house can't afford it.

It's fine if she makes a profit, but if she loses, she won't even think about being an editor.

"It's like this, Mr. Yan, our publishing house currently only publishes poetry collections and personal anthologies. As for online novels..." Yang Na didn't say it clearly, but she thought Yan Ke would understand.

"That's it." Yan Ke didn't say much, since others dare not take risks, why should he force others?

What's more, with the popularity of "Fights Break Sphere", there are many publishers looking for him.

He just saw that it was not easy for Yang Na, so he helped her out, but she didn't appreciate it, so there was nothing he could do.

"However, you can tell me the name of your novel, and I can introduce you to some publishing houses, maybe they can help you publish it." Yang Na was also very ashamed, there was no way, small publishing houses couldn't afford it, That's why she planned to introduce the publishing house to Yan Ke.

Yan Ke took a closer look at Yang Na. This girl was either premeditated, or she was really warm-hearted.

Seeing Yan Ke staring at her carefully, Yang Na couldn't help blushing and lowered her head.

Looking at Yang Na's appearance, Yan Ke thought that the girl probably didn't know the truth, so he said, "My novel is called "Fights Break the Sphere", and it's only about 30 words at present."

"Okay, I will introduce you to the publishing house after I go back, hoping to help you." Yang Na blushed and walked away.

Yan Ke shook his head helplessly, girl, girl, you don't want to give you the chance, no wonder I am.

As a result, he took two steps and suddenly came back to his senses.

and many more!

What did he just say?
"Fights Break Sphere"?
Could it be the "Fights Break Sphere"?

So Yang Na quickly turned back and asked excitedly: "Mr. Yan, you just said that your novel is called "Fights Break the Sphere"?"

Yan Ke rolled his eyes, this girl is not stupid, she just didn't hear clearly.

"Yes."

"The "Fights Break Sphere" that is being serialized on the terminal's Chinese website?"

"Yes."

"Is it "Fights Break Sphere", which just hit the shelves a while ago and created a miracle of [-] orders?"

"Yes."

"You are "I am a passer-by"?"

"Yes."

"Yan... Mr. Yan, I'm sorry, please wait for me to make a call first." Yang Na's breathing was a little short.

Hey, that's "Fights Break Sphere", the average price is more than 6!

Many publishing houses are staring at this cake!
She didn't pay attention to it just now, but when she recalled it carefully, she almost missed the opportunity!
"Hey, editor-in-chief, I have something to ask you for instructions."

Inside Dazhong Publishing House, the editor-in-chief was busy: "Yang Na, didn't I tell you that you can buy out the copyright at a price of [-], and you don't need to ask for instructions."

Yang Na: "Editor-in-chief, it's not about this matter, Yan Ke didn't agree."

Editor-in-Chief: "What? He still doesn't agree to [-] pieces? What a great poet he really is."

Yang Na: "Editor-in-chief, it's like this, although he didn't agree to sell us his poems. But he can let us publish his novels."

Editor-in-Chief: "What? Publish novels? Short stories?"

Yang Na: "Long online novels, the estimated word count is 500 million."

Editor-in-Chief: "Aren't you stupid? Our publishing house can't complete this task. Do you still need to ask for instructions?"

Yang Na: "But..."

Editor-in-Chief: "No, but our publishing house doesn't do novels. Although the profit is huge, the investment is too big."

Yang Na: "But...but, his novel..."

Editor-in-Chief: "Again, we don't do novels!"

After finishing speaking, the editor-in-chief was about to hang up the phone, but she heard Yang Na say: "But his novel is called "Fights Break the Sphere", and the average price is [-] yuan!"

Editor-in-Chief: "We don't do small things... Wait, what did you say? "Fights Break Sphere"? Is it the divine book on the Chinese website at the end?"

Yang Na: "Yes."

Editor-in-chief: "You mean that the author of "Fights Break Sphere" wants to discuss with our publishing house about publishing "Fights Break Sphere" in simplified Chinese?"

Yang Na: "Yes, I asked him to publish a collection of poems and he didn't agree, so he offered to introduce "Fights Break the Sphere""

Editor-in-Chief: "Then why are you hesitating! Get it quickly! Get it for as much money as you want! This time we will make a big deal! Enter the novel market thoroughly!"

The editor-in-chief is very excited. It's not that their publishing house doesn't want to make novels, but because they have no money and no prestige.

Some well-known online novels will be published by large publishing houses, and they can't get them at all.

Now the most popular "Fights Break Sphere" at the end is going to be published by their publishing house, it's really pie in the sky!

"What, Yang Na, take this order, and I'll give you a promotion and a salary increase!" The editor-in-chief added.

Yang Na: "But the editor-in-chief, the budget..."

Editor-in-Chief: "I'll take care of the budget, you just sign the contract!"

Yang Na hung up the phone, obviously a little excited.

"That...Mr. Yan, are you really planning to sell the simplified copyright of "Fights Break Sphere"?"

Yan Ke: "Can this be fake? But, didn't you say that your publishing house doesn't make novels?"

Yang Na blushed for a while: "Well, our editor-in-chief said that today we will transform..."

Yan Ke smiled slightly. Although this Yang Na is not a big beauty, she is even a little bit different from Tao Zi.But wearing glasses gave her a touch of personality.

Also, she seems to have a good sense of humor.

Next, there is the issue of negotiating copyright fees.

For this question, Yang Na is still very confident, but the editor-in-chief said that she must win this order at any cost.

But she also knew that the publishing house took a big risk.

After all, physical books are different from e-books. There are many examples of e-books being popular and physical books being unpopular.

"Mr. Yan, why don't you talk about your request for copyright fees first?" Yang Na asked.

She was ready for Yan Ke to speak loudly, but Yan Ke's next sentence almost choked her to death.

I only heard Yan Ke say: "5% royalties, 10 first prints."

Yang Na thought she heard it wrong, and repeated: "5% royalties?"

Yan Ke: "Yes, 5%."

Yang Na was dumbfounded, "Fights Break Sphere", such a popular divine book, only needs 5% royalties?You must know that the general masters have a royalty of more than 12%!
This is a full double difference!Is Yan Ke a novice?Don't know about royalties?
impossible!

Yan Ke: "However, I have one condition."

Yang Na: "What conditions."

Yan Ke: "The price of each book does not exceed 20 yuan!"

Yan Ke is not a fool, is he rich or not?
However, compared to making money, he hopes to earn prestige!

Under normal circumstances, a simplified book costs about thirty.

But if the price is 20, it can increase a lot of sales and bring more prestige to Yan Ke!
…………

In the end, Yan Ke reached an agreement with Dazhong Publishing House, 5% royalties, the first printing of 10 copies, and the price is 20 yuan.

Although the money is not much, Yan Ke can only get 10 yuan for 10 copies.But Yan Ke believes that the prestige brought to him by these [-] books is definitely far more than [-]!
And there will be a second volume, a third volume...

I feel excited just thinking about it!

Seeing Yan Ke and Yang Na talking happily, Liao Rulong in the distance was itchy with hatred.

"Fuck, sell it to a small editor in a small publishing house, but don't sell it to me, you boy, wait for me!" Liao Rulong muttered viciously after drinking a glass of red wine.

Afterwards, many people talked to Yan Ke, which was in stark contrast to Yan Ke's previous neglect.

Qian Huashan came over after everyone had finished chatting.

Yan Ke respected Qian Huashan very much, so he hurried up to meet him.

"Young man, are you interested in joining the Nanqing Writers Association?" Qian Huashan asked loudly.

Everyone immediately pricked up their ears.

Writers Association!
That's the writer's association!

Many literati have struggled all their lives, and their goal is to join the Writers Association!

Although there is no real benefit in it, it is a status symbol!

With the name of the Writers Association, I feel more respectable when I go outside!
"Old Qian, the kid's qualifications are shallow, it's really..."

Yan Ke is very modest, of course he has heard of the Writers Association, and as far as he knows, in the author group of "I am Dapu Street", a large number of people are from the local Writers Association, and some are even from the Huaxia Writers Association.

So even if he doesn't join the Nanqing Writers Association with these poems, he will join the Writers Association as an online literature author in the future.

Not for anything else, just because it can bring him a lot of prestige!
Although it was Mr. Qian who came forward to invite him, he still needs to be humble, right?
Qian Huashan chuckled, and then said: "Young man, based on your song "Confessions of a Migrant Worker", it is more than enough to join the Nanqing Writers Association, so don't mention any shallow qualifications."

What other people have said about Qian Lao is on this point, and if he doesn't agree, it will be a little too big.

So Yan Ke said: "Then thank you Qian Lao."

Qian Huashan said with a smile: "Well, tomorrow you write a written application and go to the Writers' Association with me, and the face-saving Writers' Association will still give it to me."

Liao Rulong, who was far away, listened and sneered.

Of course he knew about Qian Huashan, the former chairman of the Writers Association.But now he has resigned, and the current chairman of the Writers Association is none other than Liao Rulong!
"Hey, Zhengchou didn't have a chance to mess with you, so you just came here, you asked for it! If you don't sell your poems, you really think you're a character!" Liao Rulong sneered and waited Tomorrow, we will see Yan Ke's tragic situation after being rejected.

If Yan Ke begged him hard at that time, maybe he would hesitate a bit.At that time, Yan Ke still has to admit his mistake?

Of course, Yan Ke didn't know that he had accidentally offended the chairman of the Writers Association.

Soon, the dinner came to an end, and the guests gradually left.

Before leaving, Zhao Mingshan deliberately told Yan Ke that if he went to the imperial capital in the future, he must go out for a drink.
