Chapter 37 Publishing Company

Lai Feiyu sat in the office and stared at the words on the computer screen carefully.

As an editor under the Open Publishing Company, his main job is to find new works and formulate corresponding publishing and distribution plans for them.

The physical book market of superpowers with a population of more than one billion is particularly huge. The country has always called on the people to read more, and it is beneficial to open the book.

In addition to various teaching materials, popular science books, literary works and novels, they are the most popular types. For example, those with strong professionalism will only buy specific groups.

The most profitable one is children's books. Compared with games and toys, parents obviously prefer to buy books and stories for their children. If a children's book becomes popular, it will be continuously printed in the next few decades.

Excellent literary works are hard to come by.

Novels have always been the main force in the bestselling market.

Chinese people read an average of 10 books a year, while 200,000 new books are released every year in the market.

Including the old books that are constantly reprinting, more than 3 million books are published every year!

The number is particularly amazing!

In the past, only a very small number of pure literary novels have been on the best-selling list, and most of the best-selling novels are popular reading materials driven by plots.

If a novelist has a book on the list, more than 80% of them are likely to write a best-selling novel.

However, in the non-fiction genre, there are very few authors who have two or more bestsellers.

Some authors can only write a very professional bestseller in their lives.

It is easier and easier to create a best-selling novel writer.

In physical book sales, the 28 effect is very obvious. Important factors usually only occupy a small number, while unimportant factors occupy the majority. The relationship between input, output, effort and reward is not balanced. This baseline is the relationship between 80 and 20.

For example, about 80% of the world's resources are exhausted by 15% of the world's population; 80% of the world's wealth is owned by 20% of that group of people.

It can also be applied to the physical book sales field. 80% of sales are provided by those 20% of novels. These 20% of novels are called bestsellers. The proportion of bestsellers in the total sales of physical books is getting bigger and bigger!

The Chinese culture, economy, politics and military strength are particularly strong. The physical book market did not fall down due to the impact of the e-era, but maintained a dynamic stability.

The market is big and the competition is big.

Various publishing companies emerge one after another.

Authors and works have become scarce resources, especially excellent authors, in high demand.

No company said it was satisfied.

They are willing to spend a lot of money to sign novel authors and want to tie them to the same chariot.

The number of physical book writers is small and the creation speed is slow, which cannot meet the needs of the general market at all!

Therefore, online novels have entered the eyes of publishing companies.

Excellent online novels are very popular and have passed the market test.

In recent years, the paper book of online novels has been transformed from physical novels, creating traditional publishing myths, and becoming a best-selling book that has been printed and printed again and again!

Good online novels also need to be snatched and quickly started.

Famous masters basically have fixed cooperative companies, and it is difficult to poach unless they pay a huge price.

The Open Publishing Company once had glory. It was considered a big company more than 20 years ago, but it became worse and worse.

I have just been sold again this year, and I don’t know how many times I have been sold.

Lai Feiyu has been working in Kaijuan for four years and has changed five bosses, but he is not surprised to change.

Every boss was ambitious at first to save Kaijuan and wanted to make a career, but ended up falling into a quagmire.

If you cannot discover good books, publishing companies can only continue to lose money.

"Oh, the new boss doesn't know how long he can last."

Job change also requires qualifications. For example, Lai Feiyu has been an editor for four years but has not made a best-seller, so he can't work in those large publishing companies.

I can only stay in the opening book, hoping to dig a piece of uncensored jade.

He is used to looking for new books on Huayue.com with not very famous authors. If the previous content is appropriate, he will take the initiative to ask.

New books are generally not very competitive, and large companies will not be interested in newcomers or old losers.

Not even one of the ten times can be successfully published.

Even if it was published, it was not sold.

"This book "The End of Life and Suffering Waters" is very well written and looks particularly suitable for publication!"

Lai Feiyu's eyes shining, this is a peerless seedling!

He saw on the new book ranking list that this book will be "Xiaoyao Xing"**, and the author is still an account that cannot be updated.

I thought it would be a krypton gold warrior.

After reading carefully, I realized that the author was really motivating his emotions with the plot!

After reading the previous chapters, Lai Feiyu had an idea: he must sign this book!

However, he returned to check the introduction, the book review area, and then looked for the author, but he could not find the official book friend group account.

"No, there is no reader group for such a popular book. Are the authors afraid that they can't hold so many people?"

Lai Feiyu was itchy.

With so many eyes on Huayue, he is not the only one who makes this judgment.

If you don’t seize the opportunity and sign it as soon as possible, you may be taken first by others!

If "The End of Life and Sorrow in the Water" was just uploaded, the new book list, click list, and the blade list are now on the third list. The number of discussions in Huayue's own reader forum and the Qianlong Forum dedicated to online writers has been overwhelmed.

The uncensored jade has already shined with light and cannot be concealed.

Lai Feiyu did not dare to ask loudly, fearing that his actions would remind the other competitors instead.

The most appropriate way was to find Huayue official to contact Huayue, and the two companies were engaged in commercial docking.

However, the strength of opening the book is a bit weak, and the price of Huayue is particularly high.

If you go to a writer to sign a book publishing agreement through Huayue, the starting price and printing volume must be as high as the price, otherwise there will be no commercial value.

Publishing companies basically contact writers privately. One is to help writers save the commission on novel websites. Another reason is that they can easily grasp new writers and can buy them at a bargain price.

Most newcomers don’t know much about the publishing industry and become dizzy after a little blow.

Lai Feiyu sighed and continued to read later. He planned to go to his contracted author to ask if there are any Huayue people, maybe he can give some clues.

"It takes no effort to find a place to find a broken iron shoe!"

After reading the content of several chapters in a row, Lai Feiyu suddenly saw a familiar novel at the end of the chapter.

[Recommended to everyone a cool article "The God of War" written by a friend, which is a real cool article. You can go and take a look.]

Lai Feiyu's eyes lit up and he quickly opened the TT chat.

The book "The God of War" recommended by Qin Chuan is the online publishing book he signed!

Although the name is very loud, the sales volume is really average. It may not be able to continue after more than ten episodes.

Because the word count of general online novels is too long, physical books may be dozens or even hundreds of episodes, which is quite long.

Since I recommend the novel, it proves that these two people must be in contact!

He hurriedly came to Liu Yi and silently prayed that the physical copyright of life had not been sold.
