Chapter 101: Spider Web (Fourth Update)

Thinking about it like this, Shi Wen felt excited, but the heart was moving, and Shi Wen was still somewhat self-aware.

Compared with the Culture Publishing House, the foundation of Xinchang Publishing House is still too thin, although I really want to eat the cake of film and television copyright, but unfortunately Xinchang itself does not have such a big appetite.

If that's the case, then my trip is in vain.

Thinking of the editor-in-chief's expectant tone when he came before, and his confident posture of resolutely guaranteeing to sign the traditional copyright of this novel as soon as possible, Shi Wen felt that it was a great irony, and the corners of her mouth also raised a trace of bitterness.

It seems that both the editor-in-chief and himself still underestimate the work "Looking for Qin" too much......

The Hong Kong Culture Publishing House can come all the way and smash the high price of one or two thousand words on the spot, this vision, this kind of determination, and this courage are much higher than their publishing houses.

This is probably the reason why Xinchang Publishing House has never been able to enter the film and television industry......

Shi Wen's silence made Cai Afen, who had been paying attention to her, burst with confidence for a while.

She retracted her attention and said to Li Qing in high spirits: "Mr. Qinglian Jianxian, don't worry, our Culture Publishing House, treats excellent works, excellent authors, in the entire industry, it is first-class, the price of one or two thousand words you just mentioned, although it is indeed very high, but please believe that we are holding an absolutely sincere attitude to discuss publishing matters with you, some people may think that your work is not worth the price, but I believe that it is because they are short-sighted and cannot see the long-term future......"

Shi Wen's face was pale.

Cai Afen ignores it and is merciful to his competitors, which is cruel to himself!

Cai Afen will never let go of anyone who snatches her opportunity.

She glanced at Shi Wen slightly, sneered, and then smiled at Li Qing like a spring breeze: "Sir, do you see if we are changing places." Let's continue to discuss the terms of the contract?"

Before Li Qing could speak, Shi Wen couldn't stand being ignored and ridiculed.

Knowing that it would be boring to stay any longer, she snorted coldly, reached out and directly picked up her handbag, stood up, and said expressionlessly: "No need, since Mr. Li Qing thinks that our bid is too low, then I'll go." ”

With that, she beckoned the two young assistants and left the café together.

Since there is no possibility of cooperation. This trip can only be said to be in vain.

Taking advantage of the situation, Shi Wen returned defeated, as the deputy editor-in-chief of a publishing house, Shi Wen felt disgraced, and completely lost the scenery when she came.

When leaving, the short and fat young man and the curly-haired young man looked at each other, and they were also speechless, and they also heard the quotation from the Culture Publishing House, and secretly stammered.

Unexpectedly. A newcomer's work, one or two thousand words, is someone willing to publish it?

The two of them looked at Li Qing carefully, and their faces were full of envy.

Is it because we are too ignorant, or is the world too crazy......

Write a novel and become a millionaire in an instant. That's enough to be the focus of any news media newspaper.

And this impact is still quite big for the editor-in-charge who is still at the lowest level of the editing industry.

At least in the future, when facing new authors, neither of them will be so arrogant. So superior.

Because no one knows who is facing the person now, in the next moment. Will you just become a millionaire and a super-star author?

......

After the people from Xinchang Publishing House left, Li Qing officially looked at a group of people from the Culture Publishing House.

Two men and two women, both look like young college students.

Li Qing was a little thoughtful.

This publishing house seems to prefer to enable young blood......

Being able to let the two publishing houses come to Beijing in person to negotiate a contract with a young author like herself, who is not famous in the literary world, was a little flattering to Li Qing at the beginning.

If you don't know the details, I'm afraid you still think that you are the legendary martial arts master who lives in seclusion in the mountains and forests and easily does not go out of the mountain.

To be reasonable, although "Seeking Qin" is a pioneering work, it can make the capital side pay so much attention, even if Master Huang Yi in his previous life, when he first debuted, I am afraid he did not have this qualification, right?

"We think your work is very well written!"

Completely repelling competitors, Cai Afen's pressure was obviously much less, she breathed a sigh of relief, she considered her tone, and said with sincerity: "So I won't go into more detail here, a thousand words, a thousand words, the buyout price of traditional Chinese publishing, this price is definitely the treatment of a super first-line writer! If you think you can, we can sign the contract now!"

After Cai Afen finished speaking, a young man in a straight suit next to him quickly opened his black handbag, took out two contracts, put them on the coffee table, and said to Li Qing with a smile: "Hello sir, I am Wen Quan, the lawyer consultant of the Culture Publishing House, this contract is drawn up by me, if you are not satisfied with something, you can discuss with Miss Afen, and we can modify it as appropriate." ”

Li Qing picked up the contract and looked at it, looking a little hesitant.

This is a 20-year traditional Chinese copyright buyout contract, and the price has not yet been filled, but judging from the attitude of the other party, the reserve price of a thousand words and a thousand words will definitely not be able to run away.

If calculated based on the number of words in "Xun Qin Ji", 1.6 million words...... According to this figure, if you calculate the price, if you deduct taxes, you can get about 1.4 million.

One million and four hundred thousand!

In this day and age, there is no doubt that it is a huge number.

But...... If it is spread over 20 years, this figure is simply too nonsense for Li Qing!

Seventy thousand!

Only 70,000 a year!

I worked hard to write more than a million words, and I only got 70,000 yuan of money every year!

It's better to write a song yourself for more money!

Li Qing put down the contract, shook his head and said, "I don't accept the buyout agreement......"

He paused deliberately, and waited for the other party's face to change greatly before continuing: "Of course, if I can, I still prefer the copyright share of the work......"

Cai Afen and the others looked surprised.

"Royalty Sharing...... With all due respect, sir, the royalty share of your work is only about 6% to 10%, and at this rate, your work needs to sell more than one million copies. Moreover, not every novel can sell more than one million copies, and even in our Culture Publishing House, there are only a handful of authors who can sell one million copies, and not necessarily one person can reach it in a year. And this waiting period is very long, and it will take at least two years for the funds to be withdrawn......"

"The most important thing is to choose royalty sharing, and you will face the possibility of our publisher cutting it in half at any time! Then our publisher has the right not to continue to publish your subsequent works!"

Wen Quan said sincerely: "Of course, the quality of the novel "Xun Qin Ji" is beyond doubt, but for the sake of insurance, I still recommend that you choose to buy out, which is safer and the money comes faster." ”

Li Qing smiled, drank the card powder that was already a little cold, and then said freely: "I like to take risks." I also believe that I can't lose, so ...... Let's divide it!"

Wen Quan and Cai Afen and the others looked at each other, this result was a little unexpected for them, under normal circumstances. The choice of newcomers has always been to buy out, and the price they give is completely beyond the average famous author.

One thousand words, this number is for more than ninety percent of writers. These are all incomparably great temptations.

However, they finally respected Li Qing's opinion, and after some discussion among the four of them, they decided to give Li Qing an 8% tax share.

However, Li Qing's brazenness. It's completely beyond their imagination.

"That...... Didn't you just say that the tax rate for many works is 6% to 10%? I think 10% is a very good number, what do you think?" Li Qing said with a sincere look in his eyes.

Several people were frightened by Li Qing's high-sounding appearance, and the scene was quiet for a while.

After making eye contact a few times, Cai Afen suddenly asked instead of answering: "Mr. Qinglian Sword Immortal, may I ask, is the film and television copyright of the novel "Xun Qin Ji" still in your hands?"

Finally showing its fangs?

The plot is really my film and television copyright!

Li Qing smiled slightly, from the beginning when Cai Afen and others broke out the price of 1,000 words and 1,000 words, Li Qing knew that the other party's plan would definitely not be as simple as just traditional copyright.

Ordinary authors, no matter how good their works are, cannot reach such terrifying figures.

Didn't you listen to the people of Xinchang Publishing House, most of the newcomer authors are about 10 to 50 thousand words.

And the Culture Publishing House actually gave its own works nearly a hundred times the price!

Something went wrong, and Li Qing immediately smelled the slightest smell of traps.

It's not that I'm suspicious of their identity, it's that I'm skeptical of their purpose and motives for coming all the way to sign up for themselves in person.

Coupled with himself, he himself has personally witnessed the popularity of the TV series adapted from the novel "Xun Qin" in his previous life, so this superficial answer is about to come out.

first bought the traditional Chinese copyright at a high price, and finally used the traditional Chinese copyright as a handle, and then took the film and television copyright into his own hands.

Don't want to sell?

We have signed the traditional Chinese copyright, if you don't want to sell it, we won't publish it, or press it to publish, anyway, the contract period is 20 years!

Without the fame of the novel, you can't sell the film and television copyright!

Even if it was sold, the price would be outrageously low.

And such a simple trap, if you don't pay attention to it, you will really be tricked out by the other party.

At this moment, even Li Qing couldn't help but sigh, this Nima is really a big spider web!

And for film and television copyrights, Li Qing is of course also looking forward to it,

Because no matter the past or present life, for any author, film and television copyright is the biggest cornucopia of a novel!

Therefore, in the face of the other party's inquiry, Li Qing nodded expectantly on the spot and said, "Of course!"

Cai Afen's face was overjoyed, her face straightened, and she asked very seriously: "Then are you willing to sign the film and television of the novel "Xun Qin Ji" with us?"

Li Qing also replied very seriously: "Of course I don't want to." ”

"That's great...... Uh, what do you say?"

Cai Afen's face was stunned, and she looked at Li Qing a little dumbfounded.

The others were also stunned.

Damn, this script opens in the wrong way!(To be continued.) )
