Entertainment: The 400-pound fat man supports Zhang Tianai Chapter 031

031 Best-selling author Shen Fei, the regretful Mr. and Mrs. Jia

The popularity of “Yu Zui” has made major publishing houses keenly capture the huge commercial potential contained in it, and they have extended olive branches to Shen Fei, eager to obtain the physical book publishing rights of the work.

In fact, Shen Fei has already carefully completed the creation of the novel “Yu Zui”.

However, the two sides had serious disagreements on the issue of royalties sharing with the publishing house, which delayed the smooth launch of this masterpiece.

Usually, for many ordinary authors, the royalty rate fluctuates between 5% and 15%, which is the norm in the industry.

But for Shen Fei, such a royalty ratio seems to be far from satisfying his appetite.

After many rounds of difficult negotiations, the two sides have never reached a consensus.

So, Shen Fei decided to use a roundabout strategy and patiently wait for the popularity of the TV series to further ferment so as to restart negotiations with the publishing house at a more favorable time.

The publisher’s idea is actually not difficult to understand.

After all, before Yu Zui became popular, Shen Fei was not so eye-catching in the public eye. Even if someone knew him, most of them only regarded him as an unknown director rather than a talented writer.

Therefore, he did not receive enough attention.

However, with the sudden appearance of Yu Zui and its rapid popularity, major publishing houses rushed to compete for the copyright of this hot novel, and their eagerness was simply beyond words.

At this time, Shen Fei keenly seized this excellent opportunity and decisively proposed a royalty requirement of up to 25%.

Faced with this “sky-high” requirement, some publishing houses could not help but retreat.

But there are still some publishing houses who saw the huge commercial value behind Yu Zui and resolutely faced the challenge and gladly accepted Shen Fei’s conditions.

After all, Yu Zui, with its unique charm and wide audience base, can almost foresee that its physical book will usher in a hot-selling scene after its publication.

For publishers, although the royalty ratio is high, they can still ensure considerable profit margins with the strong market appeal and huge sales of novels, but the amount of profit will vary.

As soon as the online drama “Yu Zui” was released, it quickly triggered a wave of viewing, which shows how popular it is.

The video platform adopts a weekly update strategy, releasing only a few episodes each week, which undoubtedly whets the appetite of the audience and makes them eager to explore the direction of the subsequent plot. ?

As a result, many viewers turned to buying physical books, hoping to know the wonderful full picture of “Yu Zui” in advance.

As expected by Shen Fei, the physical book of “Yu Zui” was immediately sought after by readers as soon as it was launched.

In just a few days, the book was like a wild horse that broke free, selling 100,000 copies, which shows how popular it is.

At the same time, the book quickly climbed to the third place in the Baidu search rankings for novels, showing its influence.=|

Given the popularity of the TV series, Shen Fei has every reason to believe that it is not difficult for the physical book of “Yu Zui” to sell more than one million copies.

The royalty agreement reached between Shen Fei and Duoke Company for the book “Yu Zui” is as high as 25%.

Based on the retail price of 32 yuan per copy, if the book can successfully sell one million copies, the total revenue will be as high as 32 million yuan.

And according to the royalty ratio of 25%, Shen Fei will receive 8 million yuan in royalties.

This wave of wonderful operations not only made Shen Fei earn a lot of money, but also significantly improved his popularity.

After all, compared with the title of a web drama director and the title of a best-selling author, Shen Fei obviously prefers the latter.

During this period of time, he has frequently appeared on the hot search list and has become the focus of public attention.

“The offline physical book of Yu Zui is selling like hot cakes.”

“How did the famous director Shen Fei cross over and become a best-selling author.”

“Director Shen Fei is talented, he writes well and shoots well.”

“Is it a good thing or a bad thing that the popular TV series drive the hot sales of related books?”

This has indeed made Shen Fei famous in the entertainment industry, and his name has become widely known.

Recently, he has received many calls every day, some of which are seeking cooperation in filming, and some are inviting him to write novels, which makes him a little overwhelmed and a little annoyed.

……….

In a magnificent villa, Accountant Jia is sitting on a comfortable sofa with his wife Gan Wei, watching the popular TV series “Yu Zui” broadcast on the iQiyi platform.

“I didn’t expect this drama to be so popular.” Accountant Jia couldn’t help but sigh.

“Yes, this once again lets iQiyi take advantage.” Gan Wei echoed, with a little emotion in her tone.

“Wait, isn’t this Shen Fei the director who directed “Go Princess Go” before?

Since you have had contact with him before, how did you end up letting the good drama “Yu Zui” fall into the hands of iQiyi?”

Accountant Jia suddenly turned his head and looked at Gan Wei.

Gan Weiwei frowned slightly and replied helplessly: “How could I know that Shen Fei would be so powerful.

At first, I thought he was lucky to succeed in “Go Princess Go”.

I didn’t expect that the dramas he shot would be popular one after another. This luck is too good.”

“I’m not blaming you,” Accountant Jia quickly comforted, his tone softened.

“It’s over and can’t be undone. But we have to plan for the future.”

“You can find a chance to contact Shen Fei, keep in touch with him, and find out what drama he’s going to shoot next.”

Accountant Jia suggested, with a glimmer of anticipation in his eyes.

When Gan Wei heard this, Shen Fei’s fat body and ugly face immediately appeared in her mind, and she couldn’t help but feel a chill, even a littleNausea.

It was because she didn’t want to see Shen Fei again that she didn’t contact him after “Go Princess Go”.

But now her husband asked her to contact Shen Fei, which made her feel very embarrassed.

However, she also knew that it was her mistake that caused LeTV to lose the hit drama “Yu Zui”, so she could only reluctantly agree.

“It’s such a pity. I heard that Shen Fei is a very difficult person to deal with. Even Penguin Company failed to buy his studio with a bid of 1 billion.”

Boss Jia sighed, his tone full of regret.

“It would be great if I could use money to dig him over and make web dramas for us.

You know, every drama he makes can bring at least a small target of profit, which is simply a money-printing machine.”

“With him, the company’s performance and financial statements don’t have to worry about it, and LeTV’s stock price will definitely soar.”

Boss Jia became more and more excited, with a vision of the future in his eyes.

“By then, I can use LeTV’s high stock price to spend more time and energy on speeches to lobby those capital institutions to invest in me and realize my dream of making mobile phones and cars.”

It is obvious that Boss Jia’s mind is not on the operation and development of LeTV itself, but is completely immersed in his grand blueprint of making mobile phones and cars, and seems to have forgotten the reality in front of him.
