Chapter 278 So Familiar
Tang Xiao was in a daze just now, but now that she heard what Chen Ge said, she was even more dazed.

"Then what are you talking about?" Tang Xiao asked.

Chen Ge said: "The set I'm talking about is all the content of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", a set of 8 volumes!"

After Tang Xiao listened, she opened her mouth slightly and said, "8, 8 books?"

"Yes, 8 chapters, 200 million words!"

Tang Xiao was stunned. The updated content of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is only about 80 words, and 4 chapters are not finished yet. Chen Ge actually said that there are 8 volumes!
200 million words!

200 million words, 8 novels, a complete set, not to mention the Huizhou Publishing House where Tang Xiao works, even for the top publishing houses in China, this is a huge project!
"What?" Tang Xiao blinked in disbelief, "All the content of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern"...have you written it?"

Chen Ge smiled and said, "No."

When Tang Xiao heard Chen Ge say no, she immediately felt that Chen Ge was playing tricks on her.

"Then you said it so seriously, you said there are 8 books, 200 million words..."

"It is indeed 8 books, 200 million words."

Tang Xiao herself is also a fan of "Ghost Blowing Out the Lamp", and she is also looking forward to the plot behind this book, so if Chen Ge really publishes the content that has not been published on the Internet later, it will definitely be a hit!

"The content you are updating now is only about 4 books, and there are 4 more books. You haven't written it yet, how can you publish it?"

Chen Ge said: "Don't worry, I will write it out as soon as possible."

"Wait until you finish updating?"

"No, just this month, I'm sure I'll write it all out."

Tang Xiao's eyes and mouth widened, she thought Chen Ge was crazy.

"There are more than 100 million characters, and it will only take more than ten days at the end of the month. Can you write it?"

"It should be possible!" Chen Ge said.

"At least [-] to [-] words a day..." Tang Xiao did some calculations, and immediately shook her head, "Are you crazy, as far as I know, no one has such a skill."

Chen Ge also knew that normal people wouldn't believe it, so he changed his words: "Actually, there are some manuscripts on file. In short, don't worry, I know all the contents of the story. There will be no problem after finishing it by the end of the month."

Tang Xiao was a little suspicious when he heard Chen Ge speak so seriously. He thought that Chen Ge could tell such very specific information as 8 volumes and 200 million words. He just opened his mouth.

"You're in such a rush...don't let the plot collapse." Tang Xiao said, she didn't want her favorite book to collapse later.

"Don't worry, it won't, I can show you first, if you think it's broken, we won't publish it."

Hearing that Chen Ge was so confident, Tang Xiao believed it for a while.

Thinking that she would be able to see the plot behind "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" soon, Tang Xiao was even a little excited and looking forward to it.

If Chen Ge really writes out the following plot and publishes it together, then it will be a different matter.

The consumption habits of most readers are indeed one or two books a month at most, because after work or study, reading two books a month is already very good.

Therefore, most readers are not likely to buy as many as 8 books in one go.

But "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is different. This book is very attractive. After reading the first half online, it can create a good reputation for this book. The second half has not been published, and it appears directly as a physical book. The biggest temptation for this part of the book fans!
Tang Xiao heard Chen Ge talk about publishing a complete set, and for a while felt that if this was the case, she could give it a try.

"The method is good, but first, we must ensure that the following plots are as exciting as possible. Second, if we sell a set of 8 copies, the risk is much greater. If you want so many first prints of [-] copies, if the sales are unsalable, the cost you have to bear will be huge." too big."

"I'm not afraid. As you know, I'm a shareholder of CloudChinese.com, and I earn a lot from these two books a month. You shouldn't doubt my ability to pay, right?"

Based on 8 copies, each set is priced at 20 yuan, a set is about 160 yuan, and it may be lowered a little, the price is about 150. If it is unsalable, the cost of a set is estimated to be 100, and the unsalable [-] to [-] copies, Tang Of course Xiao was not afraid that Chen Ge would not be able to pay.

It's just that this is not a small number. For Tang Xiao, it is better to clarify the pros and cons with Chen Ge.

"Are you sure that you will bear the cost of publishing a full set, 10 first prints, and slow sales?"

Chen Ge nodded: "I'm sure."

"Any other requests?" Tang Xiao asked.

"Yes, my novels must be produced with high-quality standards. I don't want my book to look like a poor-quality book after it is published."

The publication of web novels, many of which are of low-quality publication quality, looks very cheap, and feels like a book on the street. This gives everyone a feeling that web novels are very cheap. Chen Ge naturally wants to change this situation.

"Others, nothing else." Chen Ge said.

Tang Xiao thought for a while, and said, "I need to confirm your request with my superiors, I can't make the decision."

"can."

Tang Xiao got up as she spoke, left the office, walked to the corridor outside the Chinese Cloud Network, and called the president of her publishing house.

When the publisher heard it, he couldn't explain it in words. The author was willing to bear all the risks and signed a contract to guarantee it. He was naturally overjoyed. A fool would not do a risk-free business.

Moreover, the content behind "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" has not been made public. If it is published together, it will definitely drive a wave of sales!

As for the first print of 10, it is not a problem. Anyway, if it is sold, the publisher will make a lot of money. If it cannot be sold, the publisher will not lose money!

"Promise, I will ask someone to draw up a contract and send it to you. As long as he signs this guarantee, we can agree to all his conditions!" The president's voice was quite happy, "This author made a bet with Jiang Xiao yesterday, The popularity is not bad, we have to hurry up the publishing process, maybe the sales volume is still good."

Tang Xiao was slightly taken aback, and said, "He bet with Jiang Xiao? What bet?"

"Internet novels and traditional novels are being discussed in the circle, don't you know?"

"I do know this. I saw the circle of friends talking about it."

"The fuse is the author who can't explain it in a single word. He quarreled with Jiang Xiao yesterday. Hey, let's not talk about this, you can get things done quickly."

"Oh well."

Tang Xiao became curious after hearing what the president said.

Tang Xiao didn't pay attention to the establishment of the Internet Writers Association yesterday. Hearing what the president said, she suddenly became curious.

It's no wonder why it's hard to explain why he's so decisive today, he publishes books to make money and fame, but he took a big risk, it seems to be for the sake of venting his anger!
Tang Xiao picked up the phone and searched for the news.

Soon, Tang Xiao found the video of yesterday's quarrel between Chen Ge and Jiang Xiao.

The online video that Tang Xiao saw was the video screen from the live broadcast room at the beginning, just watching Chen Ge's backside.

Tang Xiao watched the video for a while, and saw Chen Ge's back, feeling more and more familiar.

Tang Xiao's heart is a little messed up, this one who can't say a word is like her own idol...
