I Am a Nobleman in England

　　 "Sorry, your excellency, your terms are indeed a bit surprising and beyond the scope of my decision. I need to ask the headquarter for your opinion. I'm really sorry."

　　 "Understandable, please feel free to—"

Naturally, Arthur would not block the request of the person in charge of Random House Publishing House. Indeed, according to common practice, no author would conceal his true identity. You must know that some writers now can squeeze their heads in order to be famous. This kind of peculiar request is really rare.

However, since the other party wants to ask the headquarters, then Arthur also wants the other party to ask for another objection by the way, so he smiled and continued: "Yes, there is also the amount of advance payment, one million US dollars. For the data and popularity of the novel "Fifty Shades of Gray", in my opinion, this amount completely underestimates the influence and sales it may create!"

"No, no, Lord Arthur, one million dollars is definitely a very generous amount of advance payment for authorship, and it also represents the sincerity of our publishing house. This is definitely a best-selling author in the American publishing industry. Can enjoy the treatment."

Regarding the objection raised by Arthur, the person in charge of Langdon Press directly shook his head and said, in his opinion, the young earl sitting opposite was really a bit greedy. The advance payment of one million US dollars was definitely for his own publishing house to get it smoothly. The greatest sincerity given by the copyright of the next novel.

　　 Arthur didn't argue with him, but smiled and shook his head, and said faintly: "Then I'm really sorry, this amount is a little bit different from the amount in my heart, I'm very sorry to let you go for nothing.

I believe you have also understood that I also have a publishing house, and I can completely let my own publishing house publish, so that my interests will be maximized, but out of recognition of your firm’s strength and global sales channels, I agree Talk to your company about cooperation. To be honest, the novel "Fifty Shadows of Gray" is a big seller. According to the current data, it is absolutely phenomenal. I believe that any publishing house knows its potential. , I believe that your company is more aware of the value it may create.

　　 I also believe that Hollywood should have noticed it too. Perhaps selling it to a film company is the first choice. After all, if the work can be made into a film and television drama, the income will immediately double. "

Arthur’s words changed the expressions of the people at Langdon Publishing House. They didn’t expect that they had talked well before, but they were uncomfortable. The young Count on the opposite side raised the table directly. This turned his face too fast. Come on, how can there be such talks in business negotiations?

"Ahem... Dear Earl Arthur, please wait a moment. I will immediately report the situation to the New York headquarters. Don't worry, I think there is nothing you can't sit down and talk about." Langdon Publishing The person in charge of the agency chuckled and hurriedly said that this time the mission was assigned by the New York headquarters. If it is messed up in his hands, there will be no good fruit.

"Yes, boss, if there are differences, everyone can discuss slowly, and eventually find a win-win solution." Tom on the side also promptly persuaded him, although he really hopes to have Boleyn Publishing directly publish "Grey's Fifty "Dao Shadow", but he also understands that his young boss wants to get the manuscript fee in advance, and Bolin Publishing cannot do this alone, so he can't let the boss pay himself the prepaid manuscript fee.

　　 Knowing the boss's mind, Tom naturally wouldn't watch the business negotiation turn into a deadlock, and finally broke up unhappy, so he would interject to ease the embarrassment.

　　 It seems that Arthur takes Tom’s advice very seriously, and after hesitating, he nods and says calmly: "Well, I'll wait for your good news."

"Okay, please wait a moment. I will leave for a while and come back soon." The person in charge of Langdon Publishing House looked at the two people in front of him unabashedly and bluntly. He was really dumbfounded, but it was the New York headquarters after all. He couldn't make any claims for the tasks assigned by him, so he could only call for instructions.

　　 "Please-Paul..."

　　 Arthur smiled and gestured, then turned his head and gestured to the butler behind Paul.

　　 "Guest, please--"

　　 Butler Paul, with a calm and graceful smile, stepped forward and reached out and made an inviting gesture, and then led the other person in front to make a call to a quiet other room.

　　 After they left, Arthur smiled and said to the others: "We are waiting while drinking tea."

　　 "Thank you..."

In the face of everyone’s gratitude, Arthur picked up the tea cup, and when drinking tea, the corners of his mouth could not help but turned up slightly. He didn’t care whether the other party thought he was too greedy, or the cooperation with Tom was too tricky, as long as he could finally To achieve your goal is to succeed.

　　 After all, no matter how elegant the literature is, it must be paid. The writer also has to make a living. Can't you really live by love and cold water?

Looking at the world, behind the glamorous title of writers, how many people have different living conditions and means of earning a living. Only a very small number of people have entered the ranks of the rich by bestsellers. Of course, writers in some systems of a certain eastern country are much happier. Pay peace of mind to create, but how many so-called writers have to run around for life, and even some writers are struggling to survive due to social changes.

Besides, he was insecure because of lack of money, so he would naturally not let go of this opportunity to increase his account balance again~www.readwn.com~ Anyway, the advance payment for authorship will be deducted from the authorship after the novel is published. It is not an unacceptable thing that I want more now. Of course, it also depends on how much recognition and confidence Langdon Press has for "Fifty Shades of Gray".

As time passed by, everyone sitting in the magnificent and magnificent main hall was a bit quiet. Arthur was not in a hurry. The indifferent smile on his face remained, although there was a pretense in it, but as A nobleman, learning to wear a mask is one of the skills that he has cultivated since he was a child. Not to mention the guest who sent him money, even if the opponent is a mortal enemy, the demeanor that should be maintained must be maintained!

"Da da da--"

Finally, the sound of footsteps moved from far to near, and everyone’s eyes passed over the drama. Butler Paul took the head of Langdon Press and walked back quickly. After the other party was seated, he smiled and said, "The New York headquarters, I agree. You will not disclose the authorship request for the time being, and at the same time, you have decided to increase the prepayment amount of the author's remuneration to 1.5 million US dollars. This is the greatest sincerity of our publishing house.

The headquarters believes that "Fifty Shadows of Gray" is absolutely phenomenal. Its appearance will drop a blockbuster on the world publishing industry. I hope you can stop the network update and complete the creation of the first volume as soon as possible. Published on the market, for readers! "

　　 After he finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned to the young earl. Arthur pondered for a moment, with a smile on his face, stretched out his hand and said, "Happy cooperation!"

　　 "Happy cooperation!" The head of Langdon Press hurriedly reached out and shook Arthur's hand, and said with a big smile.

　　 The others also smiled, and they breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, there were no more problems.
