My rebirth is different

Chapter 94 Betting All Bets

"It's not bad. It's a relatively innovative youth love story. The writing is smooth and down-to-earth. But, can such a book really sell over a million?"

The editor-in-chief does not know how many books he handles in a year, so his vision is naturally vicious.

Hu Yan smiled awkwardly, and spoke again.

"It's different. In fact, it can't be said that Yu Wenfei is a pure rookie. All major media and newspapers across the country will soon report on the New Concept Contest. As a representative figure of the second contest, he will appear frequently! It will have a high reputation. We can take advantage of its peak popularity to push this book to the market, and with that limelight, it is estimated that it will sell a lot."

These words are quite reasonable and highly operable, and the editor-in-chief nodded in approval.

"Okay, you have a good idea. You really are an old editor. How about this, we will give him the first print of 100 million copies of this book, spread it through all major channels, and the promotion budget... 50! This effort should be worthy of it He is the special prize of the New Concept Contest, haha."

Hu Yan was overjoyed and said: "That's enough! This is the treatment for ordinary famous writers to publish new books! If he is not satisfied, it can only be said that he has too much appetite."

Things went smoothly on Hu Yan's side, but on Dong Xiaoxue's side, they encountered setbacks.

…………

"Are you crazy?! Spending so much resources on such a newcomer's book! Have you ever considered the consequences?!"

The editor-in-chief looked at Dong Xiaoxue in shock, startled by what she just said.

"I'm not crazy, editor-in-chief, I really like this book!"

Dong Xiaoxue's eyes were shining, and her tone was extremely firm.

"No, I can't agree. The first print is 200 million? You must be crazy. With such a quantity, in the past two years, in the category of novels, it is basically the annual sales champion! Even if it is a few domestic masters A new book by a well-known author may not be able to sell this amount, as a newcomer, he is still a high school student, how could he do it!"

Dong Xiaoxue chuckled, "Hehe, if those famous authors really published new books, I wouldn't dare to say 200 million first prints. But Yu Wenfei is different. It's true that he is a high school student, but who dares to say that books written by high school students can't be big?" Sold it? Just because he is a high school student, and the target readers of this book are also middle and high school girls. The two fit perfectly. You and I both know how huge the middle and high school market is. You can see it by looking at the sales of teaching supplementary books every year. Yes. What I want is to pry open this market through this person Yu Wenfei and this book!"

The editor-in-chief looked at her in shock. She really didn't expect that Dong Xiaoxue's ambitions would be so big.

This is just a novel, how dare it compare sales with teaching aids!

"Are you serious? The promotion fee is 200 million, and the first printing is 200 million copies! Press conferences, signings in major cities?! This kind of resource inclination is second to none in this year's new book plan in our agency. If this book If the book doesn't catch on like you expected, do you know what's going to happen to you?"

"I know, I just have to take responsibility, I'm not afraid! I, Dong Xiaoxue, can't fail to do what I'm sure about! Yu Wenfei's book, I have a vague feeling that it will lead to a new trend in campus literature. This may be A...phenomenal book! This person is also the kind of new-generation writer I have been looking for in the past few years!"

In the past few years, Dong Xiaoxue has been saying that the domestic youth literature has great potential.

However, there has not yet been a new generation of writers who can act as a leading figure.

The qualified candidates in her mind should be those who are not very old, and it is best to be a junior high school student. The theme of the work is close to the domestic campus life, the style is fresh, and can be liked by the majority of junior high school girls.

What she wants to create is an idol writer!

Obviously, the appearance of Yu Wenfei made her feel that the person she had been waiting for for a long time had finally appeared!
The editor-in-chief shook his head and said helplessly: "Well, I will maintain limited support. You are a bit reckless this time, and work steadily for two or three years. After I retire, with your performance, who can compete with you? Competing for the position of editor-in-chief. It's good now, if you mess up this time, your competitors will probably jump out."

Dong Xiaoxue said disdainfully: "The reason why they are not as good as me is that they are too conservative. Before doing something, they first consider the consequences of failure. However, if you don't do a lot of things, if you don't dare to fight, it will never be possible." Successful. Since I am optimistic about this person, I dare to bet all my bets on him! This is the difference between me and them!"

……

The next morning, according to the agreed time, Yu Wenfei met the two editors again.

"50 promotion fee, covering all major channels, 100 million first prints! The royalties are settled according to the book pricing. This is the sincerity of our agency."

Hu Yan said proudly.

This condition, for a newcomer, is very sincere.

According to his understanding, Han Han's contract with the Writer's Publishing House is just this condition.

Yu Wenfei nodded noncommittally, and looked at Dong Xiaoxue.

Dong Xiaoxue smiled sweetly, stretched out her hand to roll her hair, and then said, "200 million first seals!"

Nonsense almost didn't jump up, 200 million first prints?

Is Yu Wenfei regarded as Jia Pingwa's teacher or Mo Yan's teacher? !

Before he could express his question, Dong Xiaoxue continued, "200 million promotion fee!"

As soon as Hu Yan was about to say it, he swallowed it again, almost biting his own tongue.

This is really crazy!

200 million promotion costs, this is real money to spend.

Before the publishing house has made a penny from the book, it has to spend a huge sum of 200 million yuan. How many books will it have to sell to make this money back.

"New book signing conferences, signing events in major cities, as long as we can promote you and this book, we will do it! This sincerity, Yu Wenfei, are you satisfied?"

Dong Xiaoxue added.

This condition, to be honest, was beyond Yu Wenfei's expectations.

He said without hesitation: "Thank you, Teacher Dong, for your kindness. This book is here for you!"

Hu Yan didn't bother to fight for it any more. Dong Xiaoxue's conditions were impossible for him to meet, and the club would not agree to them.

Shaking his head, he smiled wryly and said, "I'm crazy. Your editor-in-chief really dares to agree to such a condition. It's not that I don't like classmate Yu Wenfei, and it's not that I don't like this book either. But... no matter how you look at it, I don't think so." It may be sold to such an extent!"

This is a cognitive error. In Hu Yan's eyes, this is a good youth romance novel. With Yu Wenfei's popularity in the media recently, if it can be sold for a while, it will be over a million. sales.

Going forward, whether Yu Wenfei can become popular depends on his subsequent topicality and new works.

But this book, judging by nonsense, is unlikely to make him angry.

But in Dong Xiaoxue's eyes, things are completely different.

In her eyes, this book is a new trend in campus literature, and it will be a phenomenal book!

Moreover, she has great ambitions for the sales of this book.

I want to break my wrist with teaching and supplementary books.

As she said, many things, if you don't try them, how will you know they won't work.
