Another World Under My Pen

Chapter 62: Contract and lawyer

Twelve points of royalties, the first printing of 60,000 copies, and the contract period of eight years.

This is the content of the contract terms that Zheng Ye sent to Sun Peng, and of course it was about a book about shooting the carving. After reading the fifteen-page contract, Sun Peng was quite satisfied: Although he compromised the contract period to eight years because the royalties and first-print numbers were very good, it was really good for a newcomer. Standard.

and……

In China in this world, the price of books is also high!

After rebirth, after learning some things, Sun Peng realized that there are also very happy places in life in China on the earth, such as his doctor profession that was once scolded by countless people, and countless people once bought pirated books because they were too expensive. Publishing industry. In this world, a novel by an ordinary writer with 200,000 words is priced at least 40 yuan. If it is a work by a well-known writer, it is even more exaggerated. Books of 60, 70 or even 100 yuan are also common. .

This set of shooting sculptures is priced at least two hundred small!

If the price is high and the royalty rate is 12%, Sun Peng can get more than one million for the first printing of 60,000 copies!

"Tsk tsk, can't think about it anymore."

After wiping the saliva that was about to drain, Sun Peng shook his head to dispel the thoughts in his head. Now it’s not the time to consider whether to get the money to clean up the old house or buy a good car. The most important thing at the moment is not how to spend the money, but the freshly released contract. You must find a professional People go and see for yourself, otherwise what if you get scammed by that guy...

...

"...What is this?"

After receiving the envelope that Sun Peng handed over, Sun Ya asked suspiciously. The cousin suddenly ran to the company to find her, and Sun Ya was particularly surprised: Isn't this guy the most impatient to see herself?

"contract!"

After blinking his eyes, Sun Peng said helplessly: "To put it simply, I wrote a novel on the Internet with good grades, so there are publishers who want to publish physical books... This is the contract they gave me. ..."

"Wait, wait a moment!"

Before Sun Peng finished speaking, Sun Ya opened her mouth in surprise: "What did you say? Is there a publishing house that wants to publish your novel?"

Sun Ya had heard of the story of his cousin writing novels, but never took it seriously.

In Sun Yana's solidified impression, the cousin is a mediocre-looking, low-capacity, disgusting character, and is completely useless except for his body to make people "bright up"! The only thing worth mentioning is that Sun Peng is the only male in the old Sun family's generation, and this is exactly what Sun Ya hates him the most-almost every elder in the family treats him so differently!

Just this guy...

Can write novels? Is there a publisher willing to publish? !

The corners of her mouth twitched twice, and Sun Ya couldn't help but want to laugh, but she held back desperately. According to previous experience, if I really laughed out loud, the guy in front of me would definitely be furious... This is in my own company, and that's ashamed of myself!

It's a pity that Sun Ya didn't know, the cousin had already seen her expression in his eyes.

But at this time, Sun Peng is no longer the Sun Peng he used to be, so he didn’t see those expressions and didn’t hear the tone of his cousin’s words. Instead, he nodded and said, “Yes, there is a publishing house that wants to publish. I’ve written a novel, and I’ve already drawn up a contract...Aren’t you a lawyer? I just want you to show this contract, so don’t let people do anything tricky in it."

"Uh... are all real?"

Seeing Sun Peng's serious face, the smile in Sun Ya's eyes gradually disappeared.

Although I didn't really want to see my little cousin, Sun Ya also knew that the other party was not a joking guy... So, all of this is true?

"Tear!"

Turning the envelope in her hand, Sun Ya tore open the contents immediately, and then looked at the first page.

"Shuxiang Publishing House?"

Seeing the name of the publishing house on the cover of the contract, Sun Ya was slightly surprised: As one of the largest publishers in China, Sun Ya of course had heard of their names, and knew that the strength of this publishing house could squeeze into the country. Ten level!

The Legend of the Condor Heroes.

Twelve percent of royalties.

Sixty thousand copies were first printed.

The contract period is eight years.

...

Looking down one by one, Sun Ya raised her head and glanced at her cousin from time to time, and at the same time, the expression on her face kept changing subtlely-this kid really wrote a great novel? Otherwise, how to explain such generous terms, the other party is still one of the large-scale domestic publishing houses?

"Second sister, are you turning too fast?"

Seeing Sun Ya flipping down page after page, Sun Peng was a little worried, and asked with his teeth.

"Nonsense, I just look at the main content."

Rolling his eyes, Sun Ya said angrily: "After I get a general understanding, I will naturally check carefully one by one... and I am not a professional intellectual property lawyer, so I will have to consult my colleagues at that time. , At least two or three days!"

"Oh, all right."

Hearing what his cousin said, Sun Peng immediately felt relieved.

"But, this book... really you wrote it?"

Sun Peng was relieved, but his second cousin was still a little worried, and asked carefully: "I mean... I have never heard you mention it before, why is it going to be published? And it's still so big. The publishing house, such good conditions!"

"Uh, I said, you just don't believe it."

Shrugging, Sun Peng responded indifferently.

In fact, whether it is writing novels or scripts, Sun Peng has never deliberately concealed his relatives. For example, every time he goes to his uncle or aunt's house and asks them what he has been up to, Sun Peng will tell the truth. In his concept, as in countless novels, he is hiding from his family members, and even pretending to be afraid of the other party's worry or something, is to deceive himself...or just pretend to be force.

It's just that for his words, most of the relatives don't care very much.

Of course, they cannot simply be blamed. After all, the previous Sun Peng shows that the reality is too bad, and not only writing novels, composing music, creating short animations and so on, who has never done it? It’s just three minutes of heat every time, it’s hard to stick to it, and every time something is made...

After listening to his cousin's words, Sun Ya's face was also embarrassed.

Among the whole family, I am afraid that Sun Ya has the deepest prejudice against him. The two have never dealt with each other. How many years have they been fighting? Suddenly discovering that a cousin that I do not like has performed so well, the feeling in Sun Ya's heart... is really weird!

Of course, Sun Ya's happiness is also essential to the loss.

If you don't deal with that, it's her own cousin. Why is she unhappy if Sun Peng is mixed up? Just like many relatives usually have a calm relationship, but when you encounter something, they are sure to stand up the first time.

After thinking about it for a while, Sun Ya nodded seriously and said: "Okay, you let me here under the contract, I will show you a good look, and promise that there won't be any ghosts left!"

"Hey, I beg you!"

With a grin, Sun Peng raised his eyebrows and said, "Second sister, why don't you just be my full-time lawyer... or my agent? This is just my first novel, and the second one is already on the shelves. In the future, there will be more cases where you need to sign a contract..."
