Chapter 422, a surprise from Rowling (please subscribe!)
"Great writer, your package!"
There are four full classes on Wednesday morning, all of which are management courses.
As soon as Zhang Xuan sat down in the classroom, Gu Run walked over from the front with a postal package in his hand.
He was a little surprised again, took the parcel and asked, "Why are you today, where is Su Jinyu?"
Gu Run smiled and said: "What? You don't want it when someone brings it to your door.
I can’t see anyone anymore, and I miss you again? "
Zhang Xuan laughed along, pretending not to hear, and asked, "Where did she go?"
Gu Run replied: "School students will have something to do."
Zhang Xuan nodded, said thank you and started to check the parcel.
I haven't received a parcel for a long time.
Received it suddenly, and even a little nostalgic.
When listening to Gu Run shouting the word "package", Zhang Xuan subconsciously thought of the four books of Seagate.
Unconsciously, another half year has passed, and I don’t know how this scholar is doing?
shook his head, removed the distracting thoughts from his mind, and began to check the parcel in his hand.
is actually from the UK?
Rowling's.
Is it the autograph book that Harry Potter published and sent to himself?
With this speculation, Zhang Xuan opened the parcel.
Inside were three signed books and a registered letter.
Look at the cover full of fantasy elements.
Look at the two English letters "HARRY.POTTER" occupying the upper half of the cover.
Zhang Xuan could not help but sigh in his heart that the greatest miracle in the history of global publishing was about to be born.
Rowling is about to begin her legendary life.
Look down
Um?
Um? ? ?
Zhang Xuan was shocked! ! !
What the **** is this?
Why does he have his own pseudonym on the cover?
Why "YueSan" appears after "J.KRowling"?
Why are the two names side by side?
Glittery and very dazzling.
Staring at YueSan on the cover, Zhang Xuan's mind went blank in an instant, and the whole person was in a dazed state.
Is this the surprise that Rowling said in the letter before?
Sign your pseudonym?
Incredible!
Maybe now Rowling doesn't know what that means. But for Zhang Xuan, who knows the future, what this means is self-evident.
As long as this book is still as popular as the original. Then you don't have to do anything in your life, and you can eat for a lifetime just with this name.
The old man was very happy, really happy, I didn't expect Rowling to give such a surprise.
With a happy mood, Zhang Xuan couldn't wait to open the registered letter in the parcel.
This letter is very thick, with 4 pages of letter paper.
The first page of the stationery seems to be a lot of long-winded.
But it’s actually about one thing: Harry Potter was published, and the publishing house was Bloomsbury Publishing House, a well-known publishing house.
Rowling said that she is very happy now and feels that she has a new hope in life.
On the second page of the stationery, Rowling told Zhang Xuan about why he signed his pseudonym, as well as his mental journey.
Frank Zhang Xuan's guidance helped her get rid of conflicts and benefited a lot.
bluntly said that without him, Rowling herself felt that her life could not find direction and meaning. The book will not be finished.
Zhang Xuan thought to himself: Be humble, the book will still be finished, but the time will be much slower, and the story will not be so exciting.
On the third page of the stationery, Rowling excitedly told him that the Harry Potter publication tax was 15%.
She said apologetically: she consulted a lawyer about royalties, and the lawyer suggested that she take the big head, 10%,
The other 5% will be given to Zhang Xuan.
But Rowling said in the letter that she felt a little sorry for him.
So she decided to take 9% by herself and 6% by Zhang Xuan, and made it clear that if there are other copyright and peripheral benefits in the future, they will also be divided according to this ratio.
Then he asked when he was going to England? Urge him to re-sign the relevant copyright agreement.
In order to facilitate contact, Rowling left a landline number for him this time.
What?
Do you still have to pay the manuscript tax?
Can you still get 6%?
Zhang Xuan's head was a little dizzy, and he was dizzy after being hit by this huge pie.
This young woman Rowling is generous now, but I wonder if she will regret it in the future?
Will you regret your bowels?
You know, Harry Potter is not just a matter of royalties.
Various copyrights and peripherals are the bulk of the interests.
If it develops according to the historical trajectory, only this 6% can bring itself at least 2.5 billion US dollars in revenue in 15 years.
even more!
Thinking like this, he who wanted to be polite to Rowling didn't dare to be polite to Rowling anymore.
The reason is very simple, the budget for the landmark design drawing is coming out soon. Predictably, this is a lot of money.
And he once boasted in front of the King of Silver Horn that he wanted to make Yingtai Complex Center a world-class shopping paradise. Can it be accomplished without a little money?
cannot!
Thinking of the astronomical figure of 2.5 billion US dollars, and thinking of this big pie, Zhang Xuan was a little hard to breathe and almost fainted.
Damn, even throwing money at himself...
took a deep breath and stabilized his emotions, Zhang Xuan continued to look down.
The content of the fourth page of the stationery is to pull home, and Rowling said that she is now learning how to cook. At that time Zhang Xuan went to England to entertain him in person.
Forget about your dishes, Western food means that you are not used to eating other than steak.
Even if it’s steak, it’s very low, and it’s only fully cooked.
If there is so little blood, I can't eat it.
Of course, I also like to drink milk.
read the letter again, and then Zhang Xuan's eyes fell on the "Harry Potter" book again.
An quietly pondered for two minutes, and Zhang Xuan immediately decided to accept this generous gift.
Now that I am in urgent need of money, it is not the time to be hypocritical.
And nothing comes faster than Harry Potter.
As for "Clockwork Girl", oh, the publishing house hasn't even landed yet?
It is estimated that it is impossible to count on in a short time.
Besides, because of the change of authorship, whether the "Clockwork Girl" can still be as popular as the previous life is unknown.
So, at this critical moment of urgent need, don’t take a bite of the meat that is brought to your mouth, isn’t that a fool?
the most, the most, and make up for the young woman in other ways in the future.
For example, the young woman wanted to kiss herself last time. Then next time if she still wants to, teach her how to kiss.
As for the body, forget it.
We are not random people.
Put the books and registered mail back in the mail bag, Zhang Xuan got up and walked to the front of the classroom.
Seeing Zhang Xuan, a famous celebrity suddenly get up, dozens of people in the entire classroom swiped and all their eyes were fixed on him.
The huge classroom was instantly silent.
Students are like this, and so are the teachers in front of me.
The middle-aged female teacher stopped the chalk she was writing, and looked straight at Zhang Xuan who was approaching.
"Teacher, I'm taking a leave of absence. I'm in a hurry." Zhang Xuan whispered.
"Okay, let's go." Seeing that the famous CUHK celebrities were so polite, the teacher was very impressed and agreed with a smile.
Leave the classroom and go back to the house.
Without saying a word, he grabbed the phone on the coffee table and started dialing the phone number on the letter.
He is a little fortunate now, and feels that he is very prescient. Otherwise, you have to travel all the way to make an international call, and you have to drive people crazy.
Luckily, the phone got through after a short wait.
"DearYueSan?" A surprised voice came from the young woman's mouth.
Ouch! So mushy, so mushy!
"Yeah, isme"
After a while, Zhang Xuan explained his purpose immediately, and then pretended to be polite.
When Rowling reconfirmed that 6% of the royalties are for herself, Zhang Xuan readily accepted.
In his opinion, this matter can be pretended to be polite once, but he dare not be polite twice.
Because many Westerners are straight-forward and have never experienced the Tai Chi push-pull technique of a flower gardener, if Rowling thinks Zhang Xuan really doesn't want it, she will cry to death.
Zhang Xuan told her that he would come to the UK immediately. But in order to save time and trouble, I will arrange for my sister Tao Ge to contact her first, and even handle this matter entirely.
After seeing Rowling's consent, Zhang Xuan immediately gave Tao Ge's personal information and contact information.
This call took a long time.
There is no way, the current Zhang Xuan is not the Zhang Xuan of the past, and he is very patient with young women.
20 minutes later, Zhang Xuan called Tao Ge.
