The thirty-ninth chapter book friends' support
Du Wenhai pretended to think for a while and said, "15/100, this share is too high. The author rarely gets such a high commission."
The 15/100 royalty share can be agreed, but in order for the company to gain more benefits, the share percentage must be reduced. You must know that if you sell million books a year and give the author one percentage point in royalty share, it means that the company will lose more than one million in profits.
Chen Dong smiled and said, "That's very few authors' works that can sell 10,000 copies in three days without any publicity. I only received a 7/100 royalty share of the first part, which made your publishing house make a big profit. 15/100 cannot be lost. Otherwise, I would rather publish it at my own expense."
"Okay." Du Wenhai nodded.
The first 7/100 remuneration share allows the publisher to make an extra profit of 8/100. If he is greedy, he may lose this super bestseller that can sell more than 1 million copies a year. He also knows that even if he takes out 15/100 profit to the author, he will still make a big profit.
“Then you have a happy cooperation!”
“Happy cooperation!”
The two parties signed a contract, and Chen Dong handed over the second to seventh parts of "Things in the Ming Dynasty" to the Dinghai Branch of Changjiang Publishing House for publication, and he earned 15/100 of the sales profit.
After signing the contract, Du Wenhai mentioned to Chen Dong, "If you publish a new book in the future, contact me, and the royalty sharing will not make you suffer."
"Okay." Chen Dong nodded and agreed.
The contract was signed, and there was no dispute between each other during the negotiations just now. One wanted to get a few more percentage points of royalty-free share, and the other wanted to pay the other party a few fewer percentage points of royalty-free share.
Everyone had a great meal. They said goodbye to Du Wenhai and Chen Dong returned to the villa.
Turn on the computer, log in to the author's backend area, and after soliciting the editor's consent, I opened a single chapter.
Hello, book friends!
The first part of my novel "Things in the Ming Dynasty" was released nationwide on June 25.
"Things of the Ming Dynasty" is based on historical materials, with eras and specific characters as the main line, and adds the novel's brushwork, humorous and witty language, and provides a panoramic display of the fates of the 17 emperors of the Ming Dynasty and other princes, powerful and small figures, especially official politics, wars, and emperors' minds, and adds the legend of the political and economic system and human ethics at that time.
In the Internet language, we tell readers the historical stories and characters of the Ming Dynasty for more than 300 years, among which the vague historical figures were originally unfamiliar in history, becoming vivid in the book, interpreting the other side of history for me, and turning history into a living life story.
"Things in the Ming Dynasty" is not as boring and heavy as historical facts, but instead writes the novel in a humorous and witty online language interestingly, making people laughable and worth reading.
With Chen Dong's single chapter recommendation, more than 100,000 readers who collected "The Legend of Eternal Life" saw this single chapter at different times, which caused many readers to have a hot discussion in the book review area and Q/Q group.
"Support the author, I want to buy one if the book is on the shelves."
"If you want to read the book is worth reading, if it is worth reading what True Ruwu said, I will buy one."
"I have no love for historical facts. It's too heavy and boring. I won't buy it."
"It turns out that "Things in the Ming Dynasty" is written by Xuwuda. The pen name is the clone of Xuwuda. I promise that this book is definitely worth reading. It is so interesting. It can write a boring historical fact so interesting. Xuwuda is really so talented."
"Didn't you say you'll wait until June 25 to be released nationwide? How come you know what's in the book?"
"The first part of "Things in the Ming Dynasty" was sold in major bookstores in Dinghai City and surrounding cities on June 15, but now it is out of stock, which is really popular. It is said that the first batch of 10,000 copies were printed by the Yangtze River Publishing House. Unexpectedly, it was sold out in three days. Book friends in Dinghai City and surrounding cities had to wait until tomorrow to buy books. Book friends in other parts of the country can buy them in major bookstores on June 25."
"Indeed, my classmate bought one and told me that this book was so interesting. I read it in class and tried to hold it in my laughter. My face turned red when I saw something funny. But when I asked, I had no choice but to buy it tomorrow."
"The wandering frog, please click on it and let everyone see what interesting methods are."
"Okay, Xu Wu will not pursue my infringement of his copyright."
"Haha, I'm the big guy, I'll send you a disclaimer."
"Okay, I can only publish 3 chapters, otherwise it will be difficult for the publishing house to explain." Chen Dong looked around.
"Understand, wandering frog, come quickly, three chapters."
"I'll type slowly, post a little bit first."
Chapter 1 Childhood
Let's start with a file.
Name: Zhu Yuanzhang alias (nickname): Zhu Chongba, Zhu Guorui
...
Everything started from that night in 1328. Chen, the wife of the farmer Zhu Wusi, gave birth to a baby boy. Everyone knows that this baby boy was later Zhu Yuanzhang. Generally speaking, there will be some similar strange phenomena in later historical books.
For example, it is windy, rainy rain, fragrance, stars flash in the sky, red lights are everywhere, anyway, I want to tell you that this person is different from others. Mr. Zhu Yuanzhang is no exception. When he was born, the red lights were all over the ground, and strange lights appeared in the house at night, so that the neighbors thought that there was a fire and came to rescue him (Ming Shi Ji).
"Haha, it's so interesting, I peeed with a smile."
"It turns out that history can be written like this. It is so interesting and funny to write history in online language."
"It's so funny, it smells like a scent, it rains heavily, the stars in the sky are flashing, and red lights are everywhere. Anyway, I'm going to tell you that this person is different from others. Seeing this sentence, I almost burst into laughter. The author is really talented in funny. The gorgeous words in "Ming Shilu" were written in his writing, which also has the same meaning, but the words written by the author are laughing."
"Haha, I can't help but want to buy one now. Who belongs to Dinghai? I'll send me a courier tomorrow. I'll send the money."
"It's me!"
...
In the final statistics, more than 400 people were willing to buy it, which cost 30 yuan per book. The total amount of money for express delivery was more than 1,000 yuan. Finally, everyone discussed it and sent money to a Baiyun League leader who lives in Dinghai City, asked the Baiyun League leader to buy books, and then contacted the express company to send more than 400 books to all parts of the country.
There is a saying on the Internet that no matter what happens, as long as it arouses strong interest from netizens, the incident will quickly spread to every corner of the Internet. This is hype/production, the cost is very low, as long as there is a small/thin, but the effect is amazing.
Chapter completed!
