Half a minute later, Xia Chao's phone rang.
He casually took it and heard a forthright voice coming from inside,""Hello, Mr. King. I'm the chief editor of the Ascending Original Literature website, Hu Ziqiang. I've already read a portion of your new book,'Demigods and Semi-Diviners'. I have to say that this book is very interesting. Our website is very interested in this book.”
Xia Chao wasn't surprised when she heard the content of these words.
In fact, with the standard of the Eight Dragons and Dragons, it was still considered a top-notch martial arts novel in the world of his previous life, let alone in this parallel world that lacked literature and art.
If the other party could not see the beauty of this book, or even felt that it was not good, then he would have to doubt the other party's professionalism as the chief editor.
After hearing the other party's words, Xia Chao deliberated for a moment and asked,""Hello, Chief Editor Hu. I've already accepted your kindness. However, I wonder how you plan to sign this book?”
Hu Ziqiang coughed twice and said," If you are willing, we are willing to sign the exclusive electronic copyright of this book with the most generous treatment. In other words, this book can only be published on our website and cannot be published on other websites. As for other copyrights, film and television copyrights, electronic copyrights, and so on, you can decide on your own.”
Xia Chao pondered for a moment and raised her eyebrows."Then, Chief Editor Hu, how much do you plan to pay for the electronic copyright of this book?”
"We have two options. One is to buy out the electronic copyright of the book for one million. You have to write at least one million words, and you won't get any subsequent profits. The second option is to split the profits. All the profits earned from this book on the Internet will be split 80 - 20. You get 80, and we get 20. What do you think?”
These two conditions, no matter which one it was, could be considered extremely generous.
The first condition was to buy it out for one million yuan. The requirement was to write at least one million words. This was to tell you that the profit on the Internet alone was one yuan per word!
One had to know that Xia Chao's book had yet to be published. Under the premise that they did not know what the future would be, a website dared to take out a million yuan to buy it out. This was definitely not a small amount of courage!
The second option was even more generous.
In this world, under normal circumstances, a literary website and the author's profit share was 50 - 50. Only the internet gods could split 70 - 30 with the website. However, in Xia Chao's case, the website directly gave a terrifying 80 - 20 split!
If anyone else knew about this method of splitting the profits, it would be enough to make countless great authors on the internet envious and jealous.
They had spent many years of hard work before they could raise the 50 - 50 split to 70 - 30. However, on Xia Chao's side, it was 80 - 20 split from the beginning!
This situation seemed ridiculous, but it was also reasonable.
This [Heavenly Dragon Eight] was indeed too stunning.
Whether it was the plot, the strength of the writing style, the image of the characters, or the description of the fighting, this novel could be said to be the best of its kind. In this world, there was no online novel that could compete with it!
After hearing Chief Editor Hu's introduction, Xia Chao did not think about it and directly chose the second condition.
80 - 20 split.
With that 500,000 yuan, he was not short of money at the moment, so he naturally would not choose the first option. That one million yuan seemed very good, but compared to the terrifying profits that the Eight Dragons could bring, it was just a drop in the bucket.
If he chose the first option, then he would really be a fool!
"Chief Editor Hu, I choose the second option."
"Oh, the second one? It had to be said that this was a wise choice.”
Hu Ziqiang and Xia Chao chatted for a while more and decided on the release date of the novel. Then, he hung up the phone in satisfaction and started to get busy. He arranged for his subordinates to carry out the advertising campaign for Demigods and Semi-Devils.
That's right.
It was to create momentum!
Even though he believed in the quality of the novel, in a place like the internet, other than the quality of the novel, the necessary publicity was also indispensable.
Moreover, after reading the 100,000-word chapter of " Demigods and Semi-Devils," it was no exaggeration to say that the chief editor had become a fan of the book.
He didn't want this novel he liked to end up in his hands because of him!
Under the pressure of this mentality, Hu Ziqiang seemed to have been injected with chicken blood. He was like a madman, operating crazily. The entire literature website was mobilized, and even Cheng Longfei's channels were used to help promote it.
All kinds of news spread wildly on the Internet, stirring up a huge storm.
However…
However, the direction of the fishing boat was slightly off.
"What is it? The singer of My Song is actually going to write a book? Or on the Ascension Literature website?"
"Eh, is that true? A singer actually wants to write a book? This…could he be joking?”
"What kind of good book can a new online singer write? I feel that he's probably just like the other singers in the past.”
