Love Apartment: The All-Around Comedian

After learning the whole story, Hu Yifei gave Atai, that lecherous man, a severe scolding.

They were greatly shocked by Su Mingyang's feat of breaking a kitchen knife with his bare hands.

You should know that she can only bend a spoon at most.

Kick a table and smash it.

As for the hand-chopping cleaver.

If she were to do that, she wouldn't break the kitchen knife, but her hand.

Su Mingyang's combat prowess.

She's far beyond my reach!

Chapter 286

In the bedroom.

Su Mingyang turned on his computer and saw a QQ message from Xiao Pachong, the editor of Qifei Novels.

Little Crawler: "Ten Years Dream, the novel 'Zhu Xian Sword' has been finished for so long, when are you planning to start a new book? The readers are all urging us to."

Upon seeing this message, Su Mingyang smiled slightly; he simply couldn't write anything like it right now.

On a sudden impulse, he replied, "I haven't spent all the royalties I've earned yet. I'll write a new book when I've spent them all."

As soon as he sent out this message.

A few seconds later, the little crawler replied: "Wow, author, after your novel 'Zhu Xian Sword' was finished, you still have hundreds of thousands of yuan in royalties every month, and you're about to have a big income again. According to you, it seems like we won't be able to wait for a new book (-crying emoji)."

Su Mingyang raised an eyebrow: "Another large sum of money?" What do you mean?

Little crawler: "It's like this, a publishing house in Shanghai contacted us, wanting the physical book rights to the novel 'Zhu Xian Sword'."

Su Mingyang was overjoyed: "Great, a publishing house has come knocking on our door so quickly."

Little crawler: "Yes, yes, this is all thanks to the great writing of the author."

Su Mingyang: "Haha, you flatter me."

Little Crawler: "I'm telling the truth. By the way, boss, if you agree, I'll give them your phone number so you can talk to them in person."

"If you don't have time or find it troublesome, you can also entrust our company to handle everything. I will negotiate with them on your behalf, and the royalties you receive will be transferred to your account by our company after the negotiations are completed."

"Oh?"

These two choices made Su Mingyang fall into deep thought for a moment.

It would take some effort to negotiate on my own.

However, all royalties earned belong to him.

But if we were to hand it over to Qifei Novel Network for discussion.

I was completely in the dark.

I don't know the situation, but when the time comes, Feiqi Novels can just give whatever amount of money they want.

This reminded him of a web novel author he admired in his past life.

It's because the copyright is handled by online literature platforms.

result.

A book that has become a viral sensation online.

They only received 50 yuan in copyright fees.

Moreover, it has full copyright, including film and television adaptations, animation adaptations, game adaptations, and so on.

The inside story is evident.

After the author received the money.

Regret abounds.

Su Mingyang didn't want to repeat his mistakes.

The reply to the crawler was: "Well, I'll handle it myself. Editor, you can just give my number to the publishing house."

The little web crawler on the other end of the computer felt a pang of disappointment upon seeing this reply. If Su Mingyang had handed it over to the company, he could have handled it himself.

That's a lot of money you can make.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but type a message to persuade him: "Boss, would you like to reconsider? If you negotiate on your own, you might miss a lot of details, and you're also afraid that the other party might make loopholes in the contract. We deal with publishers in detail, and we can guarantee that there won't be any problems. You can rest assured if you leave it to us."

"Furthermore, if needed, you can also entrust us with the game copyrights, film and television copyrights, and animation adaptation copyrights. We will take care of everything for you, and you just need to collect the money."

Looking at the long paragraph of text typed by the little crawler, Su Mingyang shook his head.

This guy has quite an appetite.

They also handed over the film and television copyrights and game copyrights.

If we really do that...

You'll regret it later.

All you need to do is collect the money.

Is that a nice way of putting it?

At that time, you'll probably only get a pittance to appease them.

Even if a copyright agency agreement is signed with Qifei Novels, the details of copyright revenue sharing will be determined.

It wouldn't be difficult for them to tamper with things.

Of course.

This could also be a case of Su Mingyang judging a gentleman by his own petty standards.

Perhaps Qifei Chinese website operates on the principle of not being greedy for profit and operating with integrity.

Then the copyright fee will be clearly and transparently paid to me.

However, Su Mingyang didn't want to take any risks and replied directly, "No need, I can handle these copyrights myself."

Little Crawler: "Okay, I'll give the phone number to the publisher later, and you can discuss it with them yourself."

Su Mingyang noticed the disappointment and dissatisfaction in the little crawler's text, chuckled, and replied nonchalantly, "Okay! It's settled then, thank you."

"No need." The little reptile didn't want any thanks. 9.

Chapter 287

Not long after I finished chatting with the little crawler.

Su Mingyang then received a call from the editor-in-chief of the Shanghai Publishing House.

The two parties agreed to meet at the fish ball coffee shop tomorrow.

Negotiate the sale of the copyright to the physical book.

Lin Wanyu learns that the physical book rights to the novel "The Immortal Execution Sword" are about to be sold.

Very happy.

He insisted on collecting the whole set and wanted Su Mingyang to sign his name all over the blank pages.

Su Mingyang smiled slightly at this, saying it was nothing.

He jokingly suggested signing something on Lin Wanyu first.

No, it should be fully signed.

Lin Wanyu blushed and gave a coquettish laugh, then immediately shrank into the quilt.

"..."

The next morning.

He took Lin Wanyu to a coffee shop.

More than an hour after opening.

The editor-in-chief of the Shanghai Publishing House arrived as scheduled.

He was accompanied by a junior assistant and a lawyer.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries...

The two then got down to business.

Purchase of the physical book rights for the novel "Zhu Xian Sword".

The editor-in-chief from Shanghai offered two solutions.

One is revenue sharing; you can receive 14% of the royalties from each book sold.

One option was a buyout, with the Shanghai Publishing House paying 500 million yuan directly.

No matter how many copies are sold in the future, the profits will be irrelevant to Su Mingyang.

Unlike signing a contract with the One-Punch Man manga.
