The sales model of online novels is not the same as the sales model of this kind of physical book electronic version. The former is calculated by subscribing to a chapter. The amount of cents for a thousand words seems not much, but if a book is written for millions, it will cost hundreds of dollars after tens of millions of words.

The author and readers are basically used to this model of subscribing to one chapter after reading one chapter. If you don’t want to read it in the middle, then you will abandon the book. Whether the subsequent chapters are charged or not has nothing to do with the readers.

The pricing method of the whole book proposed by Yi Wen is relatively simple. It is completed as soon as it is started. It is not a serialized novel. If you want to read some of it, you can buy the whole book.

This new model may be unacceptable at once. After all, buying a few cents is different from spending eight dollars directly. The latter probably needs to be carefully thought about for a while.

Regarding the subsequent authorization, Lin Han gave the decision to Chen Jiaxuan. She knew the tricks more clearly, so the couple was not tired from working together.

"Ms. Chen, Teacher Lin, our usual share ratio is 55% and any reward income is the same as this number. If the royalties are settled once a month, the specific royalties list will be released on the second day of each month. The payment will be completed before the fifteenth day of the year. The payment amount will be the total after-tax amount, and our company will pay the tax on behalf of our company. What do you think about this?"

This is the most common pattern. Yi Wen puts forward his own attitude. He is waiting for Chen Jiaxuan's reaction now.

However, Chen Jiaxuan is not an easy target to fool. She had already learned about the twists and turns in detail before meeting. She could see posts discussed on a forum by searching the posts on the Internet.

Since we were invited, the initiative was in our hands. Therefore, Chen Jiaxuan pursed her lips and shook her head and said, "Sorry, we cannot accept this model. If it is a share model, we already have enough partners, and we will not lack one of you."

Douban Reading and Amazon Kindle are places where you can pay to download e-books, and Origin must give better treatment.

The share model means handing over all the lifeline to Yiwen and others. If the website does not recommend resources to Lin Han’s novels, it may not attract much popularity. The monthly royalty fee is even better to put it in a magazine to serialize.

The sentiment has been discussed, now it is real interests. Merchants value profits, and Lin Han has not yet escaped from the low-level interests.

Yi Wen was obviously ready, so he had already prepared for the share model to be rejected, just a temptation.

"In addition to the share model, we also provide buyout services. The electronic copyright of the entire book is in our hands. No matter how our final sales volume is, it will not affect your income. Pay all the money in one go."

The buyout of Origin is divided into people. The price obtained by ordinary authors is low and the conditions are harsh. This is a full copyright buyout, and all copyrights are not in their own hands.

Some great masters have great advantages in buying outs. Electronic buyouts and wireless share, copyright is calculated separately, and the price is very high.

Now Lin Han is just authorizing the copyright of mobile reading, and the remaining copyrights will not be given a starting point, so the buyout price will be slightly lowered.

"It's good to buy out, pay everything in one go, we don't want to wait too long. What do you mean by the price?"

"How about 1,000 thousand words? This is the buyout price of the top masters on our website. If you book a contract of over 10,000 or even you may not be able to get a contract of this level."

If this number is placed in front of online authors, it will definitely cause an uproar, because they have many words and a book has millions of words. According to this calculation, the pure manuscript fee is millions of RMB.

But Lin Han is a writer of physical books. He has a maximum of 300,000 words per book. Even if it is 1,000 thousand words, it will only be 300,000 yuan after getting it. The point is that he is not a person who has never seen the world. Since he won the Hugo Award and became popular in sales, which magazine asked him to make an appointment with the article, the price given was less than 3,000 thousand words?

When he was a newcomer, the number he received in the short story "The Countryside Professor" submitted to "Science Fiction World" was 500,000 words. After being in such a long time, it turned into 100,000 words. Lin Han and Chen Jiaxuan could not change their faces.

Chen Jiaxuan took a deep breath, "I thought Mr. Yi came with sincerity. If this is the case, we won't have to talk."

Now let alone Lin Han’s novels, he said that his short science fiction novels are expensive. The magazine "The Most Science Fiction" even called out 5,000 yuan for a thousand words to make an appointment, but Lin Han has not agreed yet.

In fact, there are also authors with premium prices in the origin. I won’t mention anything else. Just say that the buyout price of Lao Mao, a fat writer who wrote "Fake Heroes", is 3,000 for a thousand words. Shouldn’t Lin Han’s commercial value be on the same level as him?

After seeing Chen Jiaxuan's strong side, Yi Wen gave up the idea of ​​bargaining and directly gave his own psychological price: "The biggest condition I can give is 3,000 thousand words. Now our company is very well produced and has the highest market share in the entire network."

"Yes, but the Zhangdu client is tightly chewing on it, not to mention that there are software under the major operators of mobile that are catching up. Your number one is not particularly stable."

Being led by others by the nose is not Chen Jiaxuan's style. These are the results of background investigations. Chen Jiaxuan regained the initiative: "How about we go about selling a package? Lin Han's novel is based on a unit of 1 million yuan. No matter whether the number of words exceeds or is insufficient, the short story is 100,000 yuan, which is so simple and clear. If you don't buy a short story, you can decide."

Yi Wen sighed. Since Lin Han was invited to join Origin at a high price, he didn't care about spending money on the short story. Anyway, the wool came from the sheep, so I would recommend it a few more times to earn it from readers.

A famous master can bring a lot of attention and traffic. For example, when a famous master was opened, he dug up many masters and then brought his fans there, becoming the cornerstone of the exhibition.

Lin Han has a large readership. After they join the Origin, they will definitely not only watch Lin Han, which will drive the sales of other science fiction novels and even publishing books.

"Then we'll decide that, let's buy four short stories, "I, Robot", "Martian Rescue", "Jurassic Park", "Three-Body 1", as well as three short stories, "The Country Teacher", "The Wandering Earth", and "Artificial Beauty". As for "The Last Earthman", I won't buy it, how about?"

The 4.3 million yuan before tax was negotiated, and Lin Han opened up a new channel for readers, took Lin Han to promote it, and each got what he needed, which was the best!

Now, it is indeed more convenient to read science fiction novels. You can see the Chinese version of these novels by searching in the city. It is very good. (To be continued.)
Chapter completed!
