Entertainment: A Compendium of Materia Medica awakens the soul of the Chinese nation

"With all due respect, the current top-level division of our country is three, and I agreed to it because of Mr. Zuo's talent.

Zuo Hao just wanted to reply, when there was a knock on the door, and he said something to Zhao Kai.

"I'm sorry. Zuo

Hao got up and opened the door, Lin Yuhan flashed in, rushed over to the computer in the room, and said as he walked.

"Hurry up, is it updated? I want to see Huang Rong.

Lin Yuhan, who walked in, saw that there were other people in the room and shouted.

"Ah, hello.

Not only Lin Yuhan was taken aback, but Zhao Kai was also taken aback.

"You are Teacher Lin Yuhan Lin, I didn't expect to meet you, can Teacher Lin sign for me, my son likes you very much." Zuo

Hao, who closed the door and walked in, rolled his eyes when he heard this.

"Didn't you just say that your daughter likes to listen to my songs now?"

Zhao Kai smiled: "That's my eldest daughter, this is my youngest son." Zuo

Hao thought to himself, good guy.

The idols of both of your children are gathered.

Stop.

The children are quite discerning.

This is Zhao Kai, editor of the People's Publishing House. Zuo

Hao introduced Lin Yuhan.

"Hello, hello.

"Why did you come so soon?

Lin Yuhan whispered in Zuo Hao's ear, wasn't it just yesterday?

" Huang Rong, who I heard Mr. Lin shouting when he entered the door just now, is it Huang Rong in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"?" Zhao Kai asked.

"Yes, yes, it's her, I just want to see if Brother Hao has updated. "

See, this is the market for "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", you can check that Xiaohan almost didn't read novels before, do you still think that thirty percent is high?"

After Zuo Hao finished speaking, Zhao Kai really calculated and pondered in his heart.

"Wow, Sancheng. Lin Yuhan didn't understand much, but it sounded like a lot.

In fact, most of the current online novels are also divided into 37 models, and a few are divided into 55 points, but there are still few such models in entities.

"No, no matter how high it is, it's not cost-effective, after all, your novel has not been tested by the market, and no one can predict how much it will sell.

"These are all unknowns, and if you are given too high a share, we will have internal opinions, and I will mention them to you privately."

Zuo Hao nodded, he knew that the other party was telling the truth, and he could also feel the sincerity of the other party, but it was impossible for him to write only this novel in the future, he wanted to increase the price as much as possible, and the price would basically be uniform in the future.

He already had a plan in his heart: "Why don't we do this, how about we have a

VAM agreement?" "VAM agreement ???"

Lin Yuhan and Zhao Kai didn't quite understand what Zuo Hao meant.

"How many of the best novels on the market have been sold?"

and "If I'm not mistaken, the best-selling novels are 1.2 million copies." "

Since the rise of online literature, physical publishing has gradually bottomed out, and if any book can sell 100,000 copies, it will be considered a bestseller of the year.

It would be great to have more than 500,000 copies.

As for Zhao Kai's 1.2 million copies, it is the highest record in the publishing industry so far, and it can be traced back to before the emergence of online literature.

Zuo Hao is very clear about all this, and he has already checked it on the Internet.

Also aware of the disadvantages of current brick-and-mortar publishing.

He believes that "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", as long as it comes out, no one can beat it.

He said to Zhao Kai, "Then let's do this, if this book doesn't sell 1.2 million copies, I only need 2 percent of the profit, but if it exceeds 1.2 million copies, I want 5 percent."

He gestured with a palm.

Zhao Kai was taken aback.

He even felt that Zuo Hao was crazy.

The achievement of 1.2 million copies has been achieved by one or two books before.

He said this on purpose, but he didn't expect Zuo Hao to really dare to say it.

He asked with a little skepticism: "Have you figured it out?" 1.2 million copies are really too difficult, even if you let your fans buy them, it is difficult to achieve, and there are still a few people who blindly chase stars now."

When he said this, he thought of his daughter, and his old face turned red.

Zuo Hao smiled confidently, "Don't worry, I won't promote this novel on Weibo, otherwise I will directly name the author Zuo Hao."

Zhao Kai was stunned.

What kind of person is this?

Is he so confident

?" "Mr. Zhao, do you think this "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is not good enough?" Zhao Kai shook his head, "I think your "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"

will be a big hit, but the current prospects and development of the industry are there, 500,000 is still possible, 1.2 million is not good at all.

"I've decided. "

This is an important matter, and I'm going to go back and ask the editor-in-chief." Zuo

Hao said yes and sent Zhao Kai away.

Lin Yuhan in the room was already dumbfounded.

It turns out that it looks good to be able to ???

a VAM agreement like this.

She knew that Zuo Hao's doing this showed that he had full confidence.

Something suddenly occurred to her, and she thought that maybe she could do it differently.

Zhao Kai hurriedly returned to the unit, only to find that his colleagues were still watching.

Caught in the world of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", he couldn't extricate himself, just like he did last night.

A thought flashed through his mind.

If what Zuo Hao said can be realized, it will set a precedent.

Perhaps brick-and-mortar publishing will rise again.

He stormed the editor-in-chief's office.

Geng Hong, who was on the phone, was startled, and hung up the phone and asked.

"What's wrong? it won't be that the contract was not signed, right?" she

saw Zhao Kai's actions and thought that there was a problem with the signing.

"Something went wrong, I promised to give him three or seven points, but the other party refused. Before

Zhao Kai went, Geng Hong told him that they could open up to 37.

However, such the highest treatment in China was rejected by the other party.

Geng Hong snorted coldly, "Has he already signed with another publishing house and deliberately slipped away from us?" Geng

Hong's thoughts are the same as Zhao Kai's.

After all, no one can refuse such a sharing contract.

"No, the other party proposed a VAM agreement, and he said that if the book does not sell 1.2 million copies, he only needs 2% of the interest, but if it exceeds 1.2 million copies, he wants 50%.

"He's crazy!" Rao also felt that this was impossible to achieve based on Geng Hong's experience and insight over the years.

1.2 million is an absolutely unattainable number.

She smiled, "Then promise him, he is too confident in this book."

Zhao Kai nodded, "Yes, Sister Hong, he seems to think that 1.2 million is just the beginning, and the score of this book will exceed 1.2 million."

Geng Hong asked in surprise: "What kind of person is he?"

Geng Hong wanted to hear the author's image from Zhao Kai's mouth, so that he could analyze whether he was really confident or just a madman.

"Sister Hong, you may know this person, even if you don't know it, I think my brother-in-law should have heard of it. "

Oh?"

Geng Hong's curiosity was aroused.

"Who. "

She is Zuo Hao, the one who has become more popular on the Internet recently!" "

What, Zuo Hao who sings "Jing Zhong Serves the Country"?"

"It's him."

Geng Hong showed a look of disbelief.

I didn't expect him to be so talented.

Geng Hong has been listening to her husband talk about Zuo Hao's name recently, and it turns out that he can not only sing, but also write novels.

Maybe, it might really make him successful.
