Chapter 32 Sale
In order to get some warmth in "I Am a Great Master" and the popularity of related events.
The editors of Landon Publishing House started high-intensity work the night they received the manuscript of "The Arcane God" provided by Tom.
The review, cover design, publicity and distribution work will be carried out together.
Based on this, Wang Jian got the final draft and the formal contract in just two days later.
You know, "The Arcane God" is not just a product that is hand-made by the publisher like "I am the Great Master".
It is because Randon Publishing House only obtains the key project of issuance rights after paying a higher guaranteed royalty.
While sighing at the efficiency of the large publishing house in his heart, Wang Jian looked down at the sample version of "The Arcane God" in his hand.
First of all, the texture of this novel is not comparable to "I Am a Great Master".
The cover of the hard shell is written by the editor-in-chief of Landon Publishing House.
He took off his waist and saw a handsome young man wearing a top hat and a tuxedo, raising his arms flat and spreading his hands forward.
One of them held a stack of papers in his hand and looked carefully, and you could also see words such as "periodic table of chemical elements", "Schrödinger's cat", "observer effect".
The protagonist's golden finger is perfectly revealed.
Above the other hand, the colorful fireballs and ice blades floated, also displaying the power gained by the protagonist.
This was obviously specially designed by someone after reading the manuscript of "The Arcane God".
Compared to the gallery acquired by "I Am the Great Master", I will choose one of them casually, and I don't know how high it is.
Wang Jian nodded with satisfaction.
At least, it looks good.
Turn on the cover, the paper inside is real coated paper.
This makes the whole book feel heavy.
Wang Jian turned the book around and read the price.
$40?
this…
A little expensive?
But thinking about his 10% share of royalties, he subconsciously licked the corner of his mouth.
Maybe, it can be sold?
Volume 1 is 300,000 words.
The whole book has 3.3 million words, and it can be sold for eleven volumes.
Wang Jian picked up the contract again and saw the first volume, and the number of volumes issued in the first edition was 300,000.
Then, after the first volume of 300,000 copies is sold, you will make a profit...
$1.2 million?
Wang Jian picked up the pen with a little excitement and signed his name on the contract.
Then, while handing the contract to the publishing staff accompanied by Tom, he asked, "When will it be officially released?"
Tom smiled and replied, "Five days later."
Then, he will bring champagne with him and open it.
While pouring the wine into three cups, he said, "For your 10%, my 1%, and this editor's promotion and salary increase."
"Let's wish you a great success in the new book."
Wang Jian and the editor also picked up their wine glasses and touched them gently.
Then, they smiled and said, "I wish you a big seller for the new book!"
In this way, Wang Jian spent five days in his worry and excitement.
And in these five days, as the publicity offensive of Landon Publishing House was fully launched.
In TV, newspapers, and radio stations, the author of "I am the Great Master" will appear from time to time, and the news that the new book will be released soon.
Some bookstores also post countdowns.
This made the first day of "The Arcane God" full of rituals.
Those who have watched "I Am the Great Master" and are excited about it, and those who are extremely dissatisfied with "I Am the Great Master" have also received news.
Because of their own different reasons, they began to wander around the bookstore often.
And because the crowd who likes fantasy literature and the crowd who likes comics have a high degree of overlap.
This also led to the distant future in comic shops.
It even made the comic shop owners complain.
But because of their complaints, more children who only like to read comics have aroused curiosity.
So, more people began to pay attention to "The Arcane God" and the day it will be released.
That's it, five days later.
Wang Jian took a deep breath while looking at the morning sun.
Today is the last day he was forced to work in the community.
Yes, his eighteenth birthday.
Even more, the day when "The Arcane God" was released.
I hope this is my lucky day.
Wang Jian changed into clothes, put on his glasses that had been prepared, and after disguising, he prepared to go to the bookstore to conduct an actual inspection.
But, in which district do you go to?
After thinking for a while, Wang Jian was still preparing to go to the vicinity of New York University.
There are the most college students there, and the corresponding fantasy literature enthusiasts are also the most.
Close contact can also make you feel the crowd’s impression of “The Arcane God” most intuitively.
After all, you can't expect people living in the Bronx slum to spend $40 to buy a book, right?
When he took a taxi to a large bookstore near New York University, the bookstore was already full of people.
The most popular real literature and inspirational literature districts are currently few.
Some people wearing glasses and looking like senior nerds were lined up, waiting for "The Arcane God" to be placed on the display cabinet.
However, the people in line seem to have different positions.
Some people are happily discussing the plot in "I am a great master".
Others stared at the door with serious expressions, waiting for the person who sent "Arcane God" to arrive.
When Wang Jian saw this crowded crowd, he breathed a sigh of relief.
In any case, it is better to pay attention to it than to ignore it.
However, a black-haired boy behind him at this time frowned when he was muttering words.
“This is simply a shame.”
"The shame of fantasy literature."
"I will never buy it!"
Wang Jian looked back at the boy.
I saw that he was wearing a black suit with a New York University school badge on his chest.
The school badge reads "Jack Dorsey".
Just when Wang Jian wanted to talk to the other party to understand the reason why the other party has this attitude.
"The Arcane God" was sent.
The bookstore employees unpacked the packaging in front of everyone waiting.
Place the exquisitely wrapped "Arcane God" on the display cabinet.
Then, the crowd surged.
The novel that had just been presented was instantly picked up.
Then, go to the counter to check out.
Wang Jian observed carefully and found that most of the people who bought the novel were just talked about "I am the Great Master".
Those with serious faces picked up the novel and walked to the corner of the bookstore to watch it.
However, because there are too many people, the people who buy it directly still make the supply of "Archae" in short supply.
While comforting the crowd, the bookstore owner quickly called the supplier and asked for an increase in the number of books.
When Wang Jian saw this scene, he relieved his heart.
It's not as good as "I Am a Great Master", but "Arcane God" is not too ruthless, right?
