No wonder this time, Huning Publishing House defeated a number of Qidian's cooperative publishers with extremely generous conditions and won the contract.

They gave 15 points for royalties alone, and there was also a generous signing fee. Not only that, Huning Publishing House also promised that the first printing of millions of sets would be paid for royalties within half a year, regardless of whether they were sold or not.

Now that the physical publishing industry is becoming increasingly sluggish, there are still such generous conditions. Li Kang, who has both the editor-in-chief and his brother, did not hesitate to be the master of the original publishing house and quickly finalized the contract details with Shanghai and Ningxia.

There are 20 volumes of books in a set of books, priced at 600, and the royalties for each set of books are 90 yuan. Hong Guiyan is really confident in Chen Xiaoli.

You should know that although Chen Xiaoli's books were popular online in the past, they were not overhyped, and the time they published was not long, and various IPs had not yet begun to ferment and monetize. Therefore, the sales volume of the two physical books before was only about 200,000 sets, and the total number of books was only exceeded 10 million. This is the total data in recent years.

Chen Xiaoli's books are actually tepid in reality, which is completely different from the trend caused by her books on the Internet.

It is precisely because of this that Xu Shen desperately bought her books to deliver them. If they were popular, there was no need for Xu Shen to do this. It would be quite troublesome to buy books and mail them.

Therefore, the publisher that Qidian used to cooperate with took great risks when he gave the first print of 200,000 sets when negotiating the terms. Unexpectedly, Shanghai and Ningxia were even more courageous.

Although Chen Xiaoli's books are popular online now, because her movie has not yet been released, the influence has not yet spread to reality.

Although the copyright of the TV series of the first book has been sold, the filming has not even started and the movie has not been released, which is a future that is uncertain.

Although if it succeeds, the sales of books will explode, if you lose these books, it will be considered a hit in your hands.

Huning is also brave. Not to mention the series of costs of printing books, he would have to give Chen Xiaoli 90 million in half a year to pay royalties. In addition to the signing fee, they would have to spend hundreds of millions of yuan on Chen Xiaoli alone. They are really not afraid of losing their lives.

The first print of one million sets and twenty million copies is how much it costs Li Kang didn’t know. He was working in the Internet, not in publishing, but he knew that Hong Guiyan was gambling with their publishing house’s future!

Moreover, even if he didn't know much about the publishing industry, Li Kang also checked the information when "On the Road" was about to be published. The first print is usually estimated based on sales volume in three months. Therefore, if there are too many first prints, even if they are sold in the end, it will be a loss if it is accumulated for several years before selling it.

Therefore, Hong Guiyan must be poplar powder, because except for poplar powder, no one has the courage and no one has the confidence in Chen Xiaoli.

Li Kang even secretly suspected that Editor-in-Chief Hong was trying hard to grab the business to meet Chen Xiaoli.

I have to say that he guessed half of it.

The other half is because of Hong Guiyan’s unparalleled trust in Chen Xiaoli.

I just don’t know that this editor-in-chief Hong is just an editor-in-chief, how could he have such great power?

And why did I want to cry when I saw her? It was inexplicably.

The conditions were finalized the day before yesterday, and the contract was confirmed to be correct. Chen Xiaoli decisively signed the contract after Li Kang nodded.

The moment Chen Xiaoli wrote, the satisfaction in Hong Guiyan's eyes made Li Kang shudder.

Could it be that this is another "I am a little fairy"?

Taking out his cell phone, Li Kang looked at the blacklist of QQ and Miao Xin. She was still in there and did not pop up. He breathed a sigh of relief.

If there was no cooperation in the future, Li Kang would probably immediately put Editor-in-Chief Hong, whom he was a little afraid, on the blacklist as soon as he went out.

After signing the contract, before Hong Guiyan asked to leave contact information with Chen Xiaoli, Li Kang quickly pulled Chen Xiaoli away, causing Hong Guiyan to choke back all the following words.

They won't eat rice.

Tea is also impossible to drink.

Who knows whether someone will quietly ask for a phone number or add a Meow letter while eating and drinking.

Beware, beware!

Brother Kang is responsible for every sister's life.

Sure enough, on the way back, the news about Hong Guiyan came: "So rush? We still have a lot to talk about."

"It would be impossible to sign a sale, and you also know that Bai Yang never shows his face."

"This...I know. Can voice interviews be done?"

"Editor Hong, our contract has been specially added. Bai Yang must not be required to cooperate with the publicity in any form, and her private information must be kept confidential. Why did you forget the terms after signing the contract by Editor Hong?" Li Kang replied seriously.

Although Chen Xiaoli is beautiful, she herself hates the leak and cherishes a peaceful life. Li Kang understands, so he is also trying his best to maintain her.

There is no need to doubt that Li Kang believes that if it affects real life, Chen Xiaoli will probably end the pen without hesitation.

After dealing with Hong Guiyan, Li Kang went to the vegetable market to buy some vegetables and cooked them in person. He made two simple dishes and one soup.

After the two of them finished their meal, Xie Anqi also sent Li Guoguo back.

The National Day holiday is already the last day, and now they have to leave.

It’s okay that Chen Xiaoli’s class is not so anxious, but Li Guoguo is about to start school anyway.

In Li Guoguo's tears, Chen Xiaoli said thank you softly to Li Kang.

"Why are you polite? You are my sister!" Li Kang rubbed Chen Xiaoli's head affectionately, and made Chen Xiaoli's eyebrows and eyes curve.

Of course, it was also fortunate that she did not wear high heels, otherwise Li Kang's posture would definitely not be so cool.

"goodbye."

“Be careful on the road.”

On the way back, Li Kang received several pictures sent by Hong Guiyan with the words "Sample Book."

"...Why is Editor-in-Chief Hong so fast?"

“I was ready before signing.”

"..." After thinking about it, Li Kang sent a message: "I wonder what the name of Editor Hong is in the group?"

“What group?”

"The big poplar god is a group of fans, referred to as the poplar iron fan group."

"There is actually this group? Can you add me?"

"No, this is an old fan group."

"Oh, what a pity. She was already writing the third book when I started reading. If it were early..."

What's the deep regret in this sentence?

Li Kang couldn't help but think deeply about a question, why are there so many local tyrants among Chen Xiaoli's readers?

Let’s not talk about Xu Shen and the previous Golden Alliance. Hong Guiyan’s move has become even bigger. The signing fee and royalties combined have nearly 100 million yuan. Do they have mines at home?

...

Thanks to the boss for his reward
