Chapter 1137 The Hottest Writer
Writing a book is really so profitable?
Although netizens have experienced a year of bombardment by Zhang Chu's works, their income of nearly one billion yuan is still dumbfounded.
It’s more than ten times the second place, how many books do you need to sell to get such income!
The annual revenue of many companies in China has not reached this number, which has simply set a new peak.
Writing is not a dead end.
After writing it, it will be the road of heaven!
"Wow, Teacher Xiao Zhang is so rich. No wonder he has been updating "What Things in the Ming Dynasty" recently. Making enough money means you can write what you want to write willfully."
"I was using my fingers just now to count so many millions of zeros."
"Give this moonlight girl some way to survive!"
"Did Zhang Chu not have a girlfriend yet? Do you need a boyfriend? I can apply for a job."
"He is handsome, rich and talented. Whoever marrys Zhang Chu may be really a fairy fairy."
"In fact, Zhang Chu's success is very representative and convincing. As long as you write excellent works carefully, you don't have to worry about your ability to make money. Thank you Zhang Chu for launching excellent works as always to wash our eyes! The market will not lie after all, good books are good books!"
"I just looked at the statistical scope of the Press and Publication Bureau. This is really a comprehensive bloom! His books are almost the top three in China for a long time, and even so, he has earned less than 150 million yuan with high royalties. The big one actually distributes overseas royalties and movie box office dividends."
This year, Zhang Chu wrote the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy series and "The Silence of the Lambs" and other types suitable for overseas readers to read. In addition, the continued hot sales of "Pi" and "Da Vinci Code" and the first work "Sherlock Detective", almost all parts of the world are at the forefront of the hot sales.
It is not uncommon to sell well in a country, but what is strange is that there are no blind spots in all countries around the world!
The amount of overseas sales is not smaller than that in China, and it also has a considerable exchange rate advantage, which provides him with much more income, almost 400 million yuan.
Moreover, during the statistical period of the General Administration of Press and Publication, many books were actually sold, but they have not settled with Zhang Chu, so a considerable part of the income has not been calculated.
The second big income is naturally the copyright of film and television and its dividends. Thanks to the income from two big hit films in the summer, he, the producer, the publisher and the cinema, made a lot of money.
However, "Farewell My Concubine" invests in the form of Hanlin Cultural Media, so this is not counted on Zhang Chu personally.
Also, "Pi" is being released worldwide. Although this part of the box office revenue is not much, it will accumulate next year.
The adaptation fee for the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy film has not yet been obtained from Universal Pictures. The other party's finances are still in the process, but these are real contracts and cannot be violated.
In fact, these statistics are omitted, such as "Ghost Blows Out the Light", "Da Vinci Code", and "The Legend of Wukong" that have also received a high income.
The most incredible one is actually "Those Things That Rabbit That Year", the Press and Publication Bureau only calculated the share that Zhang Chu could get as a painter, but did not consider that the Lingying comics that serialized it was a wholly-owned subsidiary acquired by Hanlin Culture!
The physical magazine of Lingying Comics sells over one million copies per issue, making it one of the hottest magazines in the Chinese comics field.
This year, it has made a big hit by making animations, and has cooperated with several major video website giants, and the number of clicks on almost every website exceeded 100 million.
Not to mention the profit of the copyright fee for playing, the most important thing is the surrounding area.
The image of the rabbit is very popular and earns more than the profits of Lingying comics in the past ten years!
Now Zhang Chu is very glad that his income has not been exposed. If it is truly announced, it should be more than one billion before tax.
...
"Old Zhang, our son's ability to make money doesn't seem like ours. Did he hold the wrong child in the hospital at that time?"
Chu Lan sat on the sofa and watched the evening news reports. She was writing a lot of books on the freshly released writers and wealthy writers, and Zhang Chu, who was the top of the list, naturally received more attention.
Zhang Bowen said proudly: "It is obvious that our Zhang family's children can read a lot and write books."
They actually knew that Zhang Chu had a high income, otherwise he would not have been able to go to New Broccoli to buy land without blinking, but the visual impact of tens of millions of dollars is not as impressive as the current 800 million yuan!
Tonight's headlines were full of news about Zhang Chu's income explosion, and even many overseas media reported it.
This year's Forbes Global Celebrity List and Global Writer Income List have not been announced, but Zhang Chu should have reached the top with this income.
The annual income of writers who ranked first in previous years was considered an insurmountable number.
But Zhang Chu surpassed it in all aspects and directly reached more than 100 million, making best-selling writers around the world only look up to it.
Chu Lan was a little worried: "Actually, the mentality of hating the rich in society is quite serious. What if a gangster goes to trouble our son after seeing this news? This safety issue really needs to be carefully considered!"
"Don't worry about this. I remember that Zhang Chu had a special driver who was a retired soldier. Moreover, he lived a regular life in normal times. Most of the time he spent in school and home. The public security in Yanjing must be good, and no one dared to do anything randomly."
If Zhang Chu is really given a team of bodyguards, it would probably be a swagger and his whole life would be disrupted.
The two of them are now relatively well-off and didn't think about spending the money they earned from their hard work on typing.
"Old Zhang, now I am very glad that neither of us has that kind of weird relatives and friends to borrow money. Many relatives and relationships are ruined by borrowing money."
News about borrowing money, making money, and taking advantage of the situation is common, but it has not happened to them.
Basically, it is all kinds of envy and praise.
Zhang Bowen looked at the news on the TV, picked up his cell phone and said, "Otherwise, call him. You must be low-key recently. I don't want to see any accidents!"
This is basically the case for parents, and they love their children themselves more.
"Then call, I'll tell him, now the gun is shot out."
The phone was connected, but no one answered it. After a few beeps, it was hung up in the automatic reminder.
"Don't worry, maybe he was working out or writing a book and didn't pay attention. Send him a message on WeChat. I'll call Lao Zhou to ask what the situation is."
Chapter completed!
