The Medical Guru

Chapter 1944 One Hundred Million Electronic Rights!

“Originally, I also wanted to take advantage of Fang Qiu’s new book, and planned to run to a few cities to open a book launch, and if possible, organize a book signing or something, but now it looks like there’s no need for it at all.”

After making the phone call with the major printers to complete the additional printing contract, Zhang Xingjie sat in his office, could not help but laugh and lamented: “Now it is already in this situation, which if Fang Qiu is invited to go to open the book signing, that will be what kind of scene …… ”

Thinking about it, Zhang Xingjie couldn’t help but hurriedly shake his head.

He knew that his idea was too unrealistic, not to mention that Fang Qiu could not possibly attend the book signing, and even if he did, I’m afraid it would be very difficult to run to various cities, and I’m afraid that he wouldn’t even be able to get out of Kyoto.

After all, Fang Qiu’s popularity was just too hot.

By then, it would be embarrassing to run into a few forced requests for medical attention.

While Zhang Xingjie was forcing himself to remain calm amidst the joy and excitement brought about by the huge market, other publishers were expressing their envy and jealousy when they saw that the Undiseased Codex was selling so hot.

In the industry.

Everyone knows that Prosperous Culture Press, should have gone out of business a long time ago.

However, they hit a stroke of luck, got the publishing and distribution rights of Fang Qiu’s first book, in the industry generally not optimistic about the situation, surprisingly is relying on this Fang Qiu’s first book, successfully from the walking hard to bring back to life in the publishing world.

Nowadays.

This publishing house, which should have gone out of business long ago, was actually going to take off with Fang Qiu’s second new book!

It’s a situation that makes major publishers, the more they think about it, the more they regret it.

If I had gotten the rights to Fang Qiu’s two books, I’m afraid I would have jumped to become the leader of the industry, right?

……

This way.

Because of the limited number of copies, even though millions of copies have been sold, there are still many netizens online who have not bought the Undiseased Codex.

Because they didn’t buy it, these netizens began to complain on Weibo, and most of them ran directly to the official Weibo of the Prosperous Culture Publishing House, frantically leaving messages on the screen.

“This is exactly what’s on sale, why isn’t it out electronically yet?”

“That’s right, why go through all this trouble, just start selling online?”

“Begging to be opened for online purchase, preferably in electronic form.”

“How do you expect us, who are on the computer all day, to read a paper book, we need an electronic version!”

……

For a while, the same petition went wildly viral on Weibo.

Traditional Culture Publishing House.

“Manager.”

Zhang Xingjie’s office, ran in a publicity department staff, rushed into the office, directly opened his mouth and said: “You look at our official microblogging it, are fast being netizens crashed, countless people ran to our official microblogging below the message petition, asked Fang Qiu’s new book can be purchased online, but also asked for an electronic version. ”

“Electronically?”

When Zhang Xingjie heard this, he immediately picked up no.

Asking for something like an electronic version of a book is very rare in the publishing industry because e-books are geared toward a very different group of people than physical books.

Zhang Xingjie also encountered this situation for the first time, not expecting to be asked by readers to produce an electronic version.

That would also represent this.

Fang Qiu’s book, The Undiseased Canon, has completely broken down the barrier between e-books and physical books, and has truly become a great book that everyone wants to read and everyone needs!

“Meet right away, we have to think this through, whether it’s going to work or not.”

Zhang Xingjie opened his mouth to order.

The publicity department staff immediately nodded and then began to contact the departments for a meeting.

Soon.

People from all departments then all came into the conference room.

“The situation now should be known to all of you, now time is running out, you have to express your opinions enthusiastically, what are your views on the matter of whether or not to fully liberalize the electronic version?”

Zhang Xingjie opened his mouth to inquire.

Actually.

Zhang Xingjie himself had thought about it carefully, and he remembered that when Fang Qiu’s last book hadn’t been out for long, he had received a similar petition to open up the electronic version.

But things simply weren’t as crazy then as they are now.

The most critical thing is that the market is very big this time, compared to down the paper book is more profitable than the e-book, the electronic version of the opening will not have an impact on the physical book, this is a point that must be taken into account.

“In terms of data surface, the opening up of e-rights should not cause any impact on physical books, after all, e-books and physical books are geared towards two different groups, it’s almost impossible for those who read physical books to read e-books, and those who read e-books are not willing to go to physical books, which is what readers are like nowadays.”

“I also think it’s fine, everyone has read the Undiseased Canon, I won’t mention the content of the book, but it can be very definable that such a book needs to be collected and notes taken, the current e-version is at most just a fruitful eye candy for the readers of the e-books, and as long as there’s Fang Qiu as the name, the book has an absolute collector’s value, so I think that in the end, those who buy the e-books are still going to buy Si’s physical book as well.”

“Now, the lives of the general public are much richer, which has resulted in many normal use of things have been made into collectibles, such as hats, eyes, sneakers and so on of various commodities, since these commodities can be operated to have a collector’s value, then why can’t we publish the book, the physical book is supposed to be the world’s most collectable commodities. ”

……

“Knock knock.”

Just as everyone was having a heated discussion inside the conference room and hadn’t been able to come to a conclusion, a knock on the door suddenly came.

Then, Zhang Xingjie’s secretary, walked in through the door.

“Mr. Zhang, I just received a call from an e-book website called “Huaxia Reading Network”, and they have offered 50 million dollars for the book “The Undiseased Canon”, hoping to get the electronic rights of “The Undiseased Canon”.”

The words came out.

Inside the entire conference room, the people who were still arguing individually were all shocked at once.

“That high?”

“Are they out of their minds? Fifty million dollars for an electronic right, can they make money?”

The top brass, in all departments, were stunned by the number.

“Tic-Tac-Toe ……”

At that moment, Zhang Xingjie’s phone rang.

“I think it’s an executive from Wahoo Reads, he asked me for your number.”

The secretary said.

Zhang Xingjie nodded in understanding, then took out his cell phone and immediately answered the call after taking a look at it.

“Hello?”

On the other end of the phone, a particularly official voice came and asked, “Excuse me, is this Manager Zhang of the Prosperous Culture Publishing House?”

“Yes, I am Zhang Xingjie.”

Zhang Xingjie nodded his head affirmatively in response.

“Our side is Huaxia Reading Network, I believe that our offer your secret art has told you, we Huaxia Reading Network in the country is absolutely a first-line reading brand, not only online reading, but also in the mobile reading and so on all aspects of the promotion of very strong resources, so we hope that you can carefully consider the electronic rights of the “Undiseased Canonical Books” to us. ”

The man on the other end of the phone said.

“It’s something I can’t give you an exact answer to just yet, but I’ll think about it.”

Zhang Xingjie answered.

“I hope you will give me an answer at the first opportunity after you have considered it.”

The other answered and said, “I’ll leave you to it then, goodbye.”

“Okay, bye.”

Zhang Xingjie answered in response and then hung up.

“Phew ……”

Just after hanging up the phone, Zhang Xingjie let out a long breath and hurriedly calmed down.

And the conference room.

The various departmental executives, who had not dared to make a sound all along, all turned particularly excited while looking at Zhang Xingjie.

Obviously.

The current situation was much more optimistic than they had thought.

“Fifty million dollars.”

Zhang Xingjie looked at the people in this conference room and opened his mouth to say, “Now, the bargaining chip for opening up the electronic copyright is one point heavier, but whether or not to open up the electronic copyright, it’s better for everyone to discuss it again.”

After the words were spoken, everyone opened their mouths, ready to continue the discussion.

But just then.

“Tic-Tac-Toe ……”

Zhang Xingjie’s cell phone rang again.

Pick it up.

Another unfamiliar number.

“Hello?”

Zhang Xingjie picked up the phone.

“Hello.”

At the other end of the phone, there was a smiling voice that said, “I’m Hou Yicheng from Shiji Chinese Network, we very much hope that we can get the electronic copyright of “The Undiseased Canonical Book” from your Prosperous Culture Publishing House, we, Shiji Chinese Network, have the most top-notch resources in the country, with the largest flow, and also have the largest number of paying users, and for the electronic “The Undiseased Canonical Book copyright, we can bid one hundred million dollars!”

“One hundred million?”

Zhang Xingjie’s eyes glared as he shouted out a number.

The words came out.

In the conference room, everyone was shocked when they heard this number.

One hundred million.

That’s a hundred million dollars!

I can’t believe someone offered a hundred million dollars for an e-right?

Shocked.

In the conference room, the executives of the various departments of the publishing house were all incomparably excited and surprised as they nodded their heads repeatedly at Fang Qiu, signaling him to hurry up and agree.

“I’m not going to lie, our publishing house is in the middle of a meeting on the matter of whether or not to open up the electronic rights, and I’ll convey your sincerity and conditions of cooperation to the senior management of our company, and I’ll consider them carefully.”

After responding very politely once more, Zhang Xingjie hung up the phone.

The moment the phone hangs up.

On the scene, everyone went crazy.

“A hundred million, a hundred million huh?”

“Are they crazy? Even if the physical book sells ten million copies, we won’t make a hundred million dollars, and an electronic copyright can offer such a screwed up price?”

“Agree, must agree, why not agree with such a big profit?”

Everyone has spoken out, all have stopped arguing, and all have agreed to open up the sale of electronic rights!

“In that case, I’ll poke around a bit before I do.”

After thinking about it, Zhang Xingjie took his cell phone and walked out of the conference room, came inside the building alone, and started to call for information.

It didn’t take long.

Zhang Xingjie is back.

“Well?”

The executives in each department opened their mouths to inquire.

“The thing is.”

Zhang Xingjie smiled and said, “For now, these reading sites are in the development period, are heavily investing in the development and expansion, that is, the speedy called burning money, after all, Fang Qiu’s book’s traffic is really too big, the traffic is exactly what these reading sites need the most.”
