Rising America

Chapter 48: Information almost ignored

   After lunch, it was another quiet afternoon.

   Jin Xiantai has developed a habit recently, that is, he likes to go to the back garden every afternoon, lying on the lounge chair under the porch, and staring at the beach outside the garden in a daze.

   It's a pity that he won't be able to enjoy these from tomorrow, because he will have to report to Monica College tomorrow and start his high school study career in this parallel time and space.

   cleared the dishes, washed them and put them in the dryer, Kim Hyun Tae wiped his hands and returned to the living room.

   "You go take a rest, you must be very tired to take care of the little guy in the morning, you can take the child to me, anyway, I have nothing to do this afternoon."

   After Kim Hyun Tae returned to the living room, he said to Annie.

   Annie shook her head again and again: "I'm not tired, I'm not tired, really, you don't have to worry about me, I can take good Cocoa, you can go to your own business, and the child will just leave it to me."

  Unexpectedly, Jin Xiantai kindly wanted Annie to rest, but Annie didn't appreciate it.

  Well, since Annie wants to look after her daughter, she also happens to want to be alone, so she doesn’t ask for it anymore.

After looking at Annie and her daughter who had lunch, they were playing with blocks on the sofa. Kim Hyun-tae nodded and said, "Well, if that's the case, I won't insist. It just so happens that I also need someone to stay here for a while, then my daughter. I will trouble you."

   After finishing speaking, Kim Hyun-tae went up the stairs to the second floor, walked into his bedroom and sat in front of the desk, and at the same time turned on the laptop on the desk.

   With the laptop booting up, Jin Xiantai opened the browser and started to connect to the Internet to see if he had any articles criticizing him recently.

   [California Culture Press released a news that William King, the author of its contracted novel, has been successfully accepted by Santa Monica Public College and became an 11th grader...]

Well, this is a notice issued by California Culture Press on a certain electronic news media. Look at the time. The notice was published one hour ago. Judging from this time, it should be Dave and himself who returned to the publication after separation. The agency then let people publish this announcement.

   The main purpose is also very clear, that is, to tell everyone that I have restarted my studies and have gone to school.

   In this way, the guy who posted an article attacking himself would have no excuse to continue attacking himself.

   After thinking about it, Kim Hyun-tae searched again.

   Sure enough, the guy who kept publishing articles criticizing and mocking himself recently published another article half an hour ago, after the press notice was released.

   It’s just that this article is not mocking and criticizing myself, but praising myself for listening to kind advice and choosing the right path.

   It can be seen that after Dave let himself choose to study again and was successfully accepted by Santa Monica College, the other party really couldn't continue to attack him.

   The attitude and change of the other party made Kim Hyun Tae very happy.

   After all, Kim Hyun-tae is also a human being. No matter how broad-minded he is, it will be more or less uncomfortable to be ridiculed and criticized like this.

   It's all right now, all troubles are solved.

   I don’t have to worry about this anymore.

  Actually, Jin Xiantai knew that the other party no longer continued to criticize and taunt him, not because he continued his studies, but because Annie asked the housekeeper Nord to stop the behavior.

   Otherwise, even if Kim Hyun-tae continues his studies, the other party can still have many excuses to continue the abuse.

   The literati wanted to find an excuse, but he could find it, right?

   But Jin Xiantai didn't know what was going on here, anyway, for him, this guy just didn't continue.

   Next, Jin Xiantai continued to search for all kinds of information about his novels on the Internet, such as after reading, comments from book friends, etc. He looked at it.

"A Song of Ice and Fire", after all, the publishing house only published one volume, and the story is just beginning. The high chao part of the later section has not been opened, and now only the worldview in the book is displayed. Some related characters, as well as the main line of the story.

   But even the story of "A Song of Ice and Fire" has attracted many readers, and created the desire to continue to explore and see the development of the later story? hope.

   It's a pity that only the first volume of "A Song of Ice and Fire" is currently on the market. As for the second and third volumes, there is not much news from the publishers.

   Although Jin Xiantai gave Dave the three-volume manuscript, it was obvious that Dave did not want to publish all three volumes so quickly, but slowly sold them one by one.

   After all, this is Dave's management method. It is not good for me to interrupt this, so Kim Hyun-tae was left to Dave.

   Anyway, judging from the current situation, Dave did a good job, and he also brought him a lot of income, right?

This has also caused many readers to discuss online, saying that the progress of the novel is a bit slow. It has been a month and there is no news about the second volume being listed. This is too torturous... Some people even hope to use the Internet to sign this. In this way, the California Press will publish the second volume as soon as possible, so that everyone can see the follow-up story.

   Cut, what is this?

   Seeing some readers’ comments, Jin Xiantai thought with disdain that in his original time and space, the original author of "A Song of Ice and Fire" was really slow to write.

   Six volumes of novels, let him write more than ten years.

   If you do the same, then these readers are not crazy now.

   Seeing this, Kim Hyun-tae already knows that as the story of the novel slowly unfolds in the future, when the novel of "A Song of Ice and Fire" is sold to the third volume, then basically you can expect an explosion of sales.

   Because Jin Xiantai knows the novel "A Song of Ice and Fire" very well, it becomes more exciting as it goes to the back, and it can firmly attract readers.

   Since the novel "A Song of Ice and Fire" has a good reputation and has gradually gained a readership, there is no need for Kim Hyun Tae to worry and worry about the rest.

   So next, Jin Xiantai closed the current webpage, opened and logged in to the official website of the publisher, entered the background with his authorship, and checked the sales data of the two books "The Lord of the Rings" and "William's Fairy Tale".

   "Lord of the Rings" and "William's Fairy Tales" are new novels of "I" that I handed over to Dave a few days ago to be published by California Press.

   Dave's movements are indeed fast. In just a few days, both books have been printed and they are now on sale.

   It may be that the time is too short. The sales volume of "Lord of the Rings" is still not very large. After all, it is impossible to expect the new book to be sold in just two days and buy a few million copies, right?

   That's not realistic at all, OK.

   Therefore, when Kim Hyun-tae saw that "The Lord of the Rings" only sold 13,000 copies, this sales data, he was not surprised at all.

   After all, "The Lord of the Rings" has only been on sale for two days, and it is already very good to be able to sell 13,000 copies in two days.

   After understanding the sales data, Kim Hyun-tae took another look at the pricing of "Lord of the Rings". The price of 20 yuan was obviously compared to "A Song of Ice and Fire."

   The price of 20 yuan is not high or low. According to the new royalty sharing agreement, every time you sell a copy of "Lord of the Rings" you can get 20% of the sharing fee, which is 4 yuan (before tax).

   The sales of 13,000 copies is equivalent to an extra 52,000 yuan in income.

   This is only the sales data within two days. After a month, it is not only so little. Therefore, Jin Xiantai is cautiously optimistic about the future sales expectations of the Lord of the Rings.

   Based on the current data, it should be no problem to sell hundreds of thousands of copies of "Lord of the Rings" a month in the future, and this can also bring more than one million after-tax income.

   Nice! Not bad!

   Kim Hyun Tae made some predictions in his own mind, and was very satisfied with the final data.

   Then, when Kim Hyun-tae saw the sales data of "William's Fairy Tale", he found that this fairy tale was better than "Lord of the Rings".

   In two days, the sales result was... an absolutely unimaginable 938,467 copies!

   So that when Jin Xiantai saw this data, he himself couldn't believe it, and even thought that the publisher had made a mistake.

   Finally, after contacting the publisher’s customer service through the backstage of the publisher’s website, Jin Xiantai finally confirmed that there was nothing wrong with this data.

   During the time he asked the customer service, the back-end data of the publishing house changed again. The sales data of "William's Fairy Tales" has exceeded 940,000 copies.

I go!

   Do you want to be so powerful, it will only go on sale for two days, OK?

  Although it is unbelievable, this is the fact, and Jin Xiantai cannot believe it.

   He doesn't understand why a children's story book is so popular, so popular that he didn't even predict it.

   And the price of "William's Fairy Tales" is not low. Compared with the price of 10 to 15 yuan for children's fairy tale books of the same type, my own story book is priced at 20 yuan, and this has not blocked everyone's enthusiasm for buying.

   And this is only two days of sales. There are still 28 days before the one-month royalties period. How many copies of this fairy tale can be sold in these 28 days... Even Jin Xiantai himself does not even estimate.

   But judging from the popularity of the current fairy tale book sales, it is obviously impossible to be low.

   Kim Hyun Tae sat at the desk and looked at the backstage data of fairy tale sales. The expression on his face looked a little surprised and funny.

"A fairy tale can sell so well, even surpassing "A Song of Ice and Fire" and "Lord of the Rings". Oh my God, am I crazy!" Such thoughts could not help flashing in Kim Hyun Tae's heart. And ideas.

Finally, Kim Hyun-tae, who really didn’t understand, suddenly flashed in his mind a thing that he had overlooked. Then he quickly closed the open backstage page of the publishing house, and then quickly typed in with his finger on the keyboard. After a series of URLs, I opened the official website of the [North American Screenwriters Association], and then entered my account password and logged in.

When logging on to the website, Jin Xiantai kept whispering: "Negligence, negligence, cartoons are also very profitable. It seems that Disney made money from cartoons. How can I forget this? This is My mistake."

"The Lion King", "Prince of Egypt", "Snow White", "Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck" (Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck), these names were entered by Kim Hyun Tae in the screenplay search bar of the Screenwriter Association. Any display.

  Huhu!

Great!

   Kim Hyun Tae waved his right hand, his heart was very excited.

Then he took the phone out of his pocket, and after pressing the number button, Kim Hyun-tae dialed Dave’s mobile phone, and Dave soon picked up the phone, "Hello!" Kim Hyun-tae did not wait for Dave to continue talking. What? I asked in a quick tone: "Mr. Dave, do you know where to buy a toy manufacturing factory and an animation production company?"

   It happened that Annie, who came upstairs with Coco in her arms, walked to the door of Jin Xiantai's bedroom, and she was shocked when she heard what Jin Xiantai said.

   "He is buying a toy factory and animation production company?"

   coincidentally, Annie outside the room, and Dave on the other end of the phone flashed the same judgment in their minds...
