"Okay, I understand, please!"
Qiao Mu actually knew very well what Editor Zhao said, so he immediately nodded and accepted the two contracts.
?I directly picked up the English version and started reading it.
??Looked at it for a while.
It also corresponds to the Chinese version on the other side.
Although she knew very well that the publishing house should have read these two contracts for her, or at least roughly checked them, but the contract issue was never a small problem. If she didn't read it carefully, she would still suffer a loss, so she naturally had to pay attention carefully. look.
After looking at it for a long time, Qiao Mu pointed to the page with royalties and asked: "Um, Editor Zhao!
Why is there only one type of royalties here?
Can¡¯t they choose royalties? "
"Ah, you said this, this is what we have obtained for you. Seeing that you have been writing so diligently recently, our publishing house guessed that you might be short of money, so we made an agreement with Morris Publishing House. , set this price.
Although I heard that the manuscript fees in Citi Country seem to have increased, and many people pay two or three Citi dollars for one word, after all, you are not from their country, and you are still a newcomer without any achievements to rely on, so we can only force it. Help you get one Citicoin per word.
The current exchange rate of Citicoin is quite high.
One Citicoin can be exchanged for more than eight dollars.
The novel contains 200,000 words, which is equivalent to 200,000 Citi dollars, which can be converted into more than 1.6 million in our country¡¯s currency.
This is really a lot of money.
I think if you are short of money, it is better to directly choose the method of paying the manuscript fee in one lump sum. We don¡¯t know the situation abroad. No one knows how much your book will sell in the end. What if it ends up being sold? Not much.
When the time comes, the income may be even less, you say so, so I think it¡¯s better to be on the safe side. "
Editor Zhao and the others are really kind-hearted in doing this, because this price is compared to their domestic one-time payment of manuscript fees.
It is already quite high.
???????????????? The one-time payment for some third-rate martial arts writers in their country is only about 200 for 1,000 words, or about 400 for 1,000 words, while Qiao Mu¡¯s conversion is already more than 8,000 for 1,000 words.
If this is not enough, what do you want?
It seems good to choose royalties, but no one knows how many copies she can sell.
In case not many are sold back.
Or something like acclimatization.
That¡¯s not even worse.
So Editor Zhao and his publishing house agreed that it would be better to be on the safe side this time.
If the sales are really good.
The worst case scenario is that they change it to royalty when they sign the second volume. Anyway, they only signed the first volume, and they haven¡¯t signed the second volume yet. There is absolutely room for change.
"What you said makes sense.
Will the money arrive soon? "
Qiao Mu thought about it and felt that it would be quite good to receive more than one million yuan at once. In this way, she could have a lot more budget for building a nursing home. Not only could she build a bigger nursing home, but she could also Improve the various facilities in the nursing home to make everyone's stay more comfortable.
Moreover, she is really not sure whether the fantasy novel she wrote will become popular abroad. Although the world view in the novel is the world she has experienced before, some of the stories in it are also some she has seen before. Things, but the description method and language logic are indeed based on her own habits.
Her habits in all aspects tend to be oriental after all, and it is not impossible that she is not accustomed to the local environment.
So it seems that it is okay to settle this way for the time being, but the prerequisite is that they can get the money in place as soon as possible. If they can't do this and it won't be in place until one or two years later, then she might as well choose royalties, and she won't be able to catch up anyway.
¡°It seems that you are really short of money.
Okay, I won¡¯t ask any more questions, but you really don¡¯t have to worry about the specific payment. Although Morris Publishing has various problems, the income of their publishing house is still good, and the payment is received very quickly. Very fast too.
If you sign a contract here, according to my estimation, the money should be received within a week at the latest. However, it is from their publisher to our publisher's account. Don't worry, although the money is a lot, our publisher It¡¯s not like we are greedy for your money. We will send the money to you within seven days after the settlement is completed.Our foreign exchange situation is quite tight at the moment.
So you can¡¯t get Citicoins. I hope you understand this. But if you want it, we can help you apply. There should be a certain amount. Or if you need to travel abroad someday, you can also go to the bank. exchange. "
When Qiao Mu asked, Editor Zhao felt that she was quite short of money. Although he was a little curious as to why the old lady was so short of money, out of politeness, he still did not ask.
At the same time, he also explained to Qiao Mu in detail the approximate arrival time of the royalties, and why they would be in their domestic currency after they arrive.
¡°Okay, that¡¯s half a month.
There is no problem. "
Qiao Mu nodded clearly, quickly signed both contracts, and then handed the two contracts back to Editor Zhao.
¡°It¡¯s refreshing enough. I¡¯ll leave the Chinese version for you to keep. It¡¯s enough to give the English version to Morris Publishing House. Then this matter is over.
There is something else I want to talk to you about next.
Are you interested in publishing a recipe?
After investigation, we found that less than half of the readers of your food article appreciated the stories in it, while the rest appreciated some of the delicacies described in it. There were even readers who criticized the recipes described in your book. I ordered a replica and it is said to taste good.
I think you can also be considered a gourmet.
?Or at least a pretty good cook.
So, are you interested in publishing a professional cookbook? I think the sales volume should be good.
Judging from the current sales of your food novels, selling one million copies is not a problem.
The publisher can increase your royalties for you.
¡°Well, how about a ten percent royalty?
I know that even if the royalties of our publishing house are mentioned at 10%, there should be no way to compare with the buyout price of the book you sold to Morris Publishing House, but the current situation in our country is like this, so we can only When it comes to this price, if we raise it any more, then we really won¡¯t make much money. I hope you can understand. "
The matchmaking was completed. Of course, Editor Zhao had to start talking to Qiao Mu about business matters that could make money for their publishing house. Qiao Mu was currently in their publishing house. Although it was not a cash cow, he could still be considered a lucky cat. .
"In addition, the royalties offered by Morris Publishing are indeed good. If they continue to maintain the previous seven percent royalties, people may have to run away.
So Editor Zhao could only endure the pain and cut his flesh.
Increase the royalties of Arbor. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
