For example, the royalties are divided into remuneration. Although it cannot be said that my publishing house is original, the current royalties shared by our publishing house are indeed the most friendly and favorable to authors. Even if the current publications only include my own works,

I am the only author who has signed a share contract.

But I believe that with my success and as the publishing house gradually grows, this sharing model will inevitably attract more outstanding authors.

After all, no matter how noble the author is, he will never struggle with money.

As long as it attracts more excellent authors and publishes more excellent works, the publishing house can develop healthily.

But unfortunately, this goal is still very long-term.

At present, the entire publishing house is really supported by my works alone, and there are not many real talents in the staff.

To be more precise, the current people in my publishing house are all staff who serve me. They don’t have much experience in running a publishing house themselves, and everyone is just trying to figure it out."

"Isn't this better?" Xiang Dongfang smiled, "Without experience, crossing the river by feeling the stones means that you have no shackles and can be brave enough to try new models and new ideas. Isn't this the purpose of reform and opening up.

For example, the royalty model that you mentioned is divided between the author and the publishing house. I think it is very impressive. It should be the only one in Beijing."

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "It's not necessarily the only one. It's probably the case with other publishing houses, but not many.

But no matter what, we don’t dare to disclose this revenue sharing model, so we can only sign a secret sharing contract privately.”

"Why?" Xiang Dongfang asked.

Cao Zhiqiang said: "Because our temple is too small and its foundation is too shallow. If we dare to publicly sign a share-sharing contract with the author, our colleagues will definitely oppose us. We still can't afford it."

Xiang Dongfang nodded: "That's the truth, but if that's the case, why didn't you focus on publishing, and then opened a magazine and a music company in a hurry for quick success? Isn't this a distraction?"

Cao Zhiqiang sighed: "It's very simple, anything good in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. Who made the "Journey to Jianghu" we released before so outrageous that it aroused everyone's jealousy?

I told you that at present, the entire publishing house is supported by my works, and only my works.

The entire publishing house operates around my own works.

The book series "Journey to Jianghu" is a collection of poems in name, but in fact it mainly sells the martial arts novel "Shattered Void" as a bonus.

It is precisely because of the martial arts novel "Shattered Void" that it is such a best-seller.

Otherwise, no matter how good my poems are, the number of people who like poetry is limited after all, and it is impossible to have such terrible sales.

During this period, I also took advantage of the book's bestseller to establish an offline marketing network on my own.

Although this network is only in its prototype, it has already begun to take shape.

In this case, it offended distribution units like Xinhua Bookstore.

It's just that "Jiang Hu Xing" has an agreement with Xinhua Bookstore, and Xinhua Bookstore cannot easily break the contract.

But if I continue to publish publications, if I do not publish martial arts novels but continue to publish poetry collections, let alone whether I have so many good poems, the key point is that if they do not become hits, the profit margin will be too low.

My current stall is too big. Not only do I have to support a publishing house, but I also have to allocate a large amount of money every month to subsidize the machinery factory and subsidize the wages of the workers in the machinery factory. Therefore, it must be supported by high-profit products.

As for continuing to publish books, the turnaround time is slow and the profits are low, which is not as fast as writing songs, singing and releasing records.

By the way, have you brought the distribution data of "Red Flag Fluttering"?"

"Bring it here." Xiang Dongfang said, "I wrote the summary sales data of "Red Flag Flying" for more than half a month yesterday and recorded it in my notebook. Do you want to see it?"
