Summary: I, Lord Demon King, refuse to put rot!

Chapter 9: The Huge Conditions given by the Electric Shock Library! （3/10）

Xu Fan chatted with Kagurazaka Calamus for more than an hour.

From Yalbed to Dimiugos, from the forty-two Supreme Supremes to the unfolding of the Bone King after crossing into the other world.

In the face of any question from Kagurazaka, Xu Fan was able to answer it very easily.

Soon,

After Kagurazaka Calamus went out to get coffee and returned, the conversation changed.

“Mr. Xu Fan, the book “Overlord”, we are very optimistic about its potential.”

“Are you interested in signing a contract with our publishing house to debut?”

“If you have any ideas or requests, you can put them forward, and we will try to meet you.”

Kagurazaka calamus prepared for the worst.

In this normal conversation, she has actually been on the inferior side, and the teenager in front of her seems to know the value of this “Overlord” better than herself.

Xu Fan is not at all like those debut writers Kagurazaka met before.

Even if those writers are very good, they still doubt themselves in their bones, which is a common disease of newcomers.

“I don’t have much to ask for.”

“Hmm… Well? ”

Kagurazaka Calamus looked surprised.

“It’s a little too early to make a request, wouldn’t it be better to talk about it after the first volume is released?”

Kagurazaka Calamus inexplicably felt that her body was a little cold.

At this moment, the boy in front of him seems to be really like the demon king Satan, which is creepy.

“Can’t you?”

“Okay.”

Kagurazaka Calamus looked a little ugly: “Then Mr. Xu Fan, I will be your responsible editor in the future, so give me more advice.” ”

“Don’t be so upset.”

Xu Fan smiled indifferently and said, “If the conditions given by the electric shock library are very good in the future, I will still choose to cooperate with the electric shock library.” ”

How could Kagurazaka calamus be happy.

She originally planned to sign a 1-5 volume distribution contract with Xu Fan at a low price, but now it seems that she should only be able to sign one volume.

Kagurazaka Calamus thought for a moment and said:

“Mr. Xu Fan, we are willing to give you a 12% royalty share plus the first 30,000 copies, and the price of one copy is 750 yen.”

“As for the illustrator’s 2% royalty, which is also borne by us, are you still satisfied with this condition?”

Xu Fan lowered his head and groaned.

This condition is simply rich for a new writer, and it cannot be richer.

Under normal circumstances, new writers can get between 8-10 royalties, and that is before the illustrator’s 2% royalty is deducted.

Denji Wenku offered such a generous price, obviously he did not intend to sign a contract with Xu Fan for just one volume.

Xu Fan said straight to the point: “Editor Kagurazaka, I am satisfied with your conditions, but I want to know how many volumes you plan to sign with me. ”

“Five volumes, and under the same renewal conditions, the electric shock library has the right to renew the contract first.”

The editor-in-chief set a royalty price of 10% for Kagurazaka, but she felt that if it was only 10%, Xu Fan might not agree to sign five volumes in one go.

Xu Fan looked at Kagurazaka Calamus and hesitated.

But finally nodded.

The shock library is actually his first choice.

In Neon, Denko Bunko and Fujimi Fantasia Bunko and Kadokawa Sneaker Bunko are called Light Novel Gosanke.

In addition, there are quite a few small libraries.

Royalties from cooperation with these small libraries will naturally be higher, but the publicity and number of prints are far inferior to these three.

The electric shock library gave such a sincere price, Xu Fan had no reason to refuse.

“Does Mr. Xu Fan want to sign the contract now?”

“Yes.”

“Okay, please wait.”

Kagurazaka calamus let out a sigh of relief.

She had never found it so difficult to negotiate a contract with a new author.

But fortunately, it was still done.

Kagurazaka has a hunch that this light novel called Overlord: King of the Undead will definitely make a wave.

…

Inside the room.

Xu Fan could not hide the joy in his heart, and the corners of his mouth quietly rose a little curve.

He had just calculated silently in his heart.

The royalty paid by Click Bunko was 12%, priced at 750 yen, and the initial print was 30,000 copies.

If these 30,000 copies are sold out.

Then the money he can get before tax is: 750 * 0.12 * 30,000 = 2.7 million yen.

2.7 million yen before tax!

Xu Fan suddenly fell into the joy of happiness, although the money had not yet arrived, but he was already waving to him.

The first thing to do when opening a salary.

Xu Fan must take Luya out to rub a good meal, and say goodbye to pickled gherkins from now on.

And also to change the residence.

Say goodbye to the brave, and say goodbye to the landlady whose lethality is comparable to nuclear weapons.

Xu Fan felt that the world suddenly shone brightly, and even the air became fresh.

Not for a while.

Kagurazaka Calamus walked in with the contract.

Xu Fanzai carefully read it, and after making sure that there was no yin clause, he signed his name.

There is nothing special about the contract.

It only established a priority to renew the contract and stipulated that Xu Fan must write a new volume within one year.

It’s too simple.

It takes a year, and Xu Fan can write a volume in half a day.

“Does Mr. Xu Fan have anything else to ask?”

Xu Fan nodded and said, “If the work wins the award, when will the bonus of the Electric Shock Award be issued?” ”

The big prize for the Shock Prize is 3 million yen, and the gold prize is also 1 million yen.

That’s not a small amount.

Kagurazaka explained with a smile: “Within half a month, we will contact the winning authors and send the prize money to their accounts. ”

“Then I’m okay!”

Kagurazaka Calamus stretched out her hand again: “I hope we have a good cooperation.” ”

“The faster you cooperate.”
