After returning to the villa, Xia Chao walked into her bedroom alone.
After being cleaned up by the baby, the room became much fresher. However, when he saw the obvious traces of the computer being moved, he couldn't help but shrug.
Sighing lightly, Xia Chao turned on her computer and logged into the internet. She scanned the current data of Dragons and Demons, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.
After many days of heated discussions, coupled with the excellent quality of the novel itself, this novel had become extremely popular on the Internet. It swept through everything and entered the hottest book list!
Popularity?
First place!
Good reviews?
First place!
Spread?
First place!
Whether it was the Red Book that had been famous for a long time or the popular novel that showed off its brilliance, they all paled in comparison to this " Demigods and Semi-Devils ".
The so-called limelight was the true reflection of this book!
On the Internet, the voices urging for more updates were even higher. Many netizens could not wait for the latter part of the plot. Some even threatened to send blades.
Xia Chao smiled and began to upload the chapter.
Although he had finished writing the entire novel, it didn't mean that he had to publish it all. In order to ensure that the novel's popularity and profits were maximized, Xia Chao's plan was to use three months to finish publishing the book.
In other words, he could send out more than 10,000 words a day.
"Online serializations are all about this kind of small stream that will last for a long time. A novel worth more than a million yuan will be published in three months. That's enough.”
Xia Chao's eyes moved slightly, but she made a plan.
At this moment, Chief Editor Hu Ziqiang sent him a message on the other end of the Internet.
"King, are you there? A publishing house wants to publish your novel and has offered generous conditions. Are you interested?”
Seeing this news, Xia Chao could not help but be stunned and replied.
"So fast?"
It had only been two to three days since he published the book, and there was actually a publishing house that had taken a fancy to the Eight Mysteries of Dragons and Demons and wanted to publish it?
This speed…wasn't it too fast?
It wasn't unusual for a book to be published on the Internet. There were quite a number of internet gods who could publish books, but in just a few days, someone had come to invite them. This speed…
It was unheard of!
Chief Editor Hu replied," You don't have to be surprised. Now that your novel is so popular, there must be many publishing firms fighting to publish your book. Let me tell you the truth. There are already seven or eight publishing firms that have contacted me. Now, they have all sent people here and offered extremely generous conditions. In order to fight for the publishing rights of this book, these people are already red in the face and are about to fight.”
Seeing this, Xia Chao couldn't help but laugh.
Of course, he also knew that Chief Editor Hu was joking, so he didn't take it seriously. After thinking for a while, he asked,""Then, Chief Editor, what is the most favorable condition?”
"Well, the most generous condition is a one-million-word signature fee from Yunzhong Publishing Firm and 10% of the profit.”
"Oh, you don't have to understand this industry. I need to explain this condition.”
"This signing fee is to buy out the publishing rights of the novel. If you sign this contract with him, this book can only be published by his publishing firm for the next ten years.”
" As for this 15% profit, you might think that it's too little, but in fact, the cost of publishing is too high. From printing to publishing, it requires countless manpower and resources. An ordinary author only gets 4% of the profit when they publish a novel. Even some famous old authors only get 8% of the profit.”
"I can tell you very responsibly that, according to my years of experience as an editor, with the current popularity of Dragons and Demons, if you sign a contract with Yunzhong Publishing Firm, just in terms of publishing, even if you don't do anything for a year, as long as you wait at home, you can probably earn tens of millions a year!”
Hu Ziqiang could not help but sigh softly when he made this judgment. A trace of jealousy flashed across his heart.
Comparing people was really infuriating!
He, Hu Ziqiang, was diligent and worked hard every day. Finally, he was appreciated and became the chief editor of a literary website. Up until now, he only had a few hundred thousand yuan a year. His life was considered good, but compared to this king, he immediately felt that he was nothing.
With just a flick of his finger, he could easily earn tens of millions in a year!
What made his mouth twitch even more was that this was only the publishing rights. The rights to the movie adaptation, game rights, comic rights, and many other copyrights had not been sold yet. Thinking about it, just this book alone was enough for this king to eat for the rest of his life!
"Sigh, this is the difference between a genius and us mortals.”
Hu Ziqiang sighed in his heart and shook his head.
In the villa, Xia Chao thought about it for a while and decided not to sell the publishing rights for the time being.
Although the conditions offered by Yunzhong Publishing Firm were tempting (harmonious), for the sake of a better future, he still had to temporarily suppress it.
"It's not appropriate to sell the copyright now.”
"It's only been two or three days since the start of the novel, and its reputation is still far from reaching its peak. I need to wait a little longer, a little longer. When the reputation of the novel reaches a higher level, my profits will be even greater!”
Now, Yunzhong Publishing Firm was willing to offer a one-million-dollar purchase fee and a 10% share. If the novel became more popular in the future, the publishing firms would definitely offer a higher price!
He was confident about this.
"Endure this temporary temptation (harmony). In the future, you will definitely gain more!”
Thinking of this, Xia Chao used the excuse that she still had to consider it for a few days and delayed the chief editor's suggestion.
After browsing the Internet for a while, Xia Chao soon felt a little thirsty. She stood up and wanted to go to the kitchen to get a glass of water.
However, the moment he opened the door, he saw Exemplary Liu and Bingbing walking over.
The two women's figures were still graceful and their faces were gentle and beautiful, making one's heart skip a beat. The clothes they were wearing were even more special...
"This…"
The corner of Xia Chao's mouth twitched slightly, and her heart could not help but beat faster for a second.
These two women were actually wearing maid outfits!
