This time, Su Mingyang opted for a buyout.
The physical book market is currently sluggish.
More and more readers are choosing to embrace the ocean of e-books.
This also means that e-subscriptions are on the rise.
One month after the completion of the novel "Zhu Xian Sword," the digital subscription revenue is still over 30 yuan.
This income can at least sustain us for a few years.
in comparison.
The money earned from selling physical books is simply not enough to cover the cost of reading them.
If you choose to split the profits.
A book normally costs over 20.
He can only earn three dollars.
You need to sell at least 180 million copies to earn 500 million in revenue.
And it will take at least a few years.
Considering inflation, it's simply not worth it.
It's easier and more cost-effective to just buy it out directly.
After making up your mind.
Su Mingyang then demanded 600 million to buy out the deal.
Upon hearing this number, the editor-in-chief appeared very troubled, saying that the maximum he could offer was 510 million.
See this.
Lin Wanyu, who was standing to the side, rolled her eyes and immediately told him that judging from the popularity of the Zhuxian Sword online.
The physical book should sell at least 100 million copies.
Then we can sell the game and film/television rights.
The popularity of "Zhu Xian Sword" will definitely surge again, which will surely boost the sales of physical books.
Selling 300 million copies will be a piece of cake.
The editor-in-chief thought it made sense, and then he noticed how beautiful Lin Wanyu was.
He was immediately captivated and nodded without thinking.
Call your boss to ask for instructions.
This scene made Su Mingyang give Lin Wanyu a thumbs up...
This girl is quite capable.
It seems like I should do my homework beforehand.
Lin Wanyu winked smugly.
Soon.
After the editor-in-chief completed his consultation, he agreed to buy out the physical copyright of the novel "Zhu Xian Sword" for 600 million yuan.
However, a clause needs to be added to the contract stipulating that several book signing events will be arranged in several first-tier cities, and Su Mingyang, as the author, must attend.
Su Mingyang said it was no problem, since he had plenty of time.
He no longer cares much about running the coffee shop and has left it all to Lin Wanyu.
Coming to work here every day is like a ritual.
After the editor-in-chief saw that Su Mingyang agreed, he had the lawyer revise the contract and immediately signed it with him.
soon.
Su Mingyang then received notification of the arrival of 600 million yuan.
With his previous savings of over 400 million yuan, he suddenly became a multi-millionaire.
At this moment, he felt a little smug.
I'm thinking about how to spend this money.
First, I need to buy Lin Wanyu a gift.
Then buy a car.
He remembered that Lin Wanyu really liked the convertible that Zeng Xiaoxian drove on TV last time.
She also said her dad had one.
Su Mingyang went online to check.
They immediately learned that the car was a Mercedes-Benz CLCK.
The official price is over 70 million.
After learning the price.
Su Mingyang shook his head.
That's so cheap!
Chapter 288
Now that Wanyu's father has this car.
Su Mingyang naturally wouldn't choose to buy it.
We have to consider other options.
For cars.
Compared to its appearance.
Su Mingyang still values practicality more.
First, there's the space.
It has to be big.
So that he and Lin Wanyu could enjoy some time alone together.
There are also interior design, fuel consumption, and so on.
After comprehensive consideration.
He thought the Range Rover was pretty good.
Its square shape is very imposing.
Perfect for a real man like him!
The space is spacious.
It is fuel-efficient.
The interior is luxurious.
In particular, it has strong off-road capabilities.
When I have time, I'll take Lin Wanyu on a road trip; that would be wonderful.
Su Mingyang searched online carefully.
I never imagined that the Range Rover in this world would already be producing the ultimate Autobiography Long Wheelbase.
The official price is over 300 million.
Including purchase tax, consumption tax, insurance, and other miscellaneous fees, the final price is nearly 4 million!
This price is still acceptable for Su Mingyang, who has tens of millions of dollars at his disposal.
That's the decision.
After making up his mind, Su Mingyang told Lin Wanyu about his plan to buy a car and asked for her opinion; in fact, it was more of a notification.
Looking at the car pictures displayed on Su Mingyang's computer, Lin Wanyu said somewhat awkwardly, "Uh, I don't know much about cars, so you should decide, Mingyang."
"OK then."
Su Mingyang was not too surprised by Lin Wanyu's answer.
Although Lin Wanyu is a wealthy heiress, it's normal that she doesn't know much about cars.
Girls are usually interested in jewelry, cosmetics, skincare products, bags, and the like.
I only learn about cars if I have a specific need for them.
As for what the demand is, I won't go into details.
Lin Wanyu had no objections, so Su Mingyang was naturally happy.
On my day off, I took her to the Land Rover Jaguar 4S store.
Under the enthusiastic guidance of the salesperson.
