The minimum price is 25, followed by 35, [-] priced versions.
Calculated based on the lowest price, based on 80.00% of the dealer's sales, that is 700 million copies. If 25 copies are used, the total amount is 7000 million!
What Yu Wenfei can get is more than 300 million...
A book confers a god, that's about it, Dong Xiaoxue clicked her tongue secretly.
In the years she has been an editor, this is the first time she has seen such a popular book, and it is also the first time she has seen an author earn so much money with her first book!
Waiting for Yu Wenfei to release the second and third books in the future. By then, he will already have a huge fan base. If the quality of the book itself is not a problem, how many copies will it sell? Dong Xiaoxue is a little excited when he thinks about it .
For this book, the publisher held a special meeting.
Among the participants, of course, the editor-in-chief Dong Xiaoxue is indispensable, and the other is the editor-in-chief, people from the distribution department, and people from the finance department.
"As of today, 880 million copies of I Love This World have been shipped. The previous batches of shipments have been sold out in the channels. Excluding the recent shipments and some losses, 700 million copies have already been paid back."
The people in the distribution department reported the data first.
There was applause in the meeting room, and everyone was beaming.
It's so rare. "I Love This World" has only been released for three months, and it has actually sold 700 million copies. It can be seen how popular this book is.
In the history of commercial printing houses, it is also rare.
The next thing is the financial return. The data on their side is a bit complicated, because the purchase discounts of various channels are different, but the profit brought by this book to the publishing house is also very amazing.
Under normal circumstances, for a book, the publishing house can get a gross profit of about 30.00% after excluding the cost of printing and publicity.
After subtracting the author's royalties and the editor's commission, it is the net profit of the publishing house.
If we look at this momentum, by the end of this year, "I Love This World" will easily break through the tens of millions mark!
The profits that will be brought to the publishing house will be in the hundreds of millions!
The editor-in-chief said with a smile on his face: "Very good! This time, Xiaoxue has a good eye, and she has found another general for our publishing house! By the way, you should keep in touch with Yu Wenfei. Didn't he say that he would like to publish this youth series?" Are you writing a trilogy, have you started writing the second book?"
When they first signed the contract, Dong Xiaoxue and Yu Wenfei did not sign a contract for one book, but a whole series of three books!
However, the contract was not written down, but under the same conditions, the commercial printing house had the priority to sign the next two books of Yu Wenfei.
Of course, the publishing house also has its own selfishness. It has poured so much resources into it, and promoted Yu Wenfei. If he turned around and signed the second book to another publishing house, wouldn't it be a big loss for his own side? up.
In addition, if Yu Wenfei's first book becomes popular, it will be easy to say later that his own publishing house has the priority, and he can just renew the contract directly.
If Yu Wenfei's book doesn't become popular, then he can lower the price on his own side, or even stop signing the contract, giving up the priority signing right.
"I just spoke with him on the phone two days ago. Yu Wenfei has already started writing, but he doesn't plan to publish it too soon. It is expected to be released in May next year. The first book will take a while to squeeze out the potential. .” Dong Xiaoxue laughed.
The editor-in-chief nodded in satisfaction, one book a year, this rhythm is very good.
Basically, the best sales period for a book is the first half a year or even the first few months, and the subsequent sales will become less and less.
Wait a year before releasing the second book. At that time, the sales potential of the old book is almost the same, and the new book may be able to drive the sales of the old book.
At the same time, the popularity of old books has not completely subsided, which can be regarded as laying a good foundation for the launch of new books.
"The finance side should calculate Yu Wenfei's royalties, and it should be settled for our great writers. Don't let them pick on us, haha." The editor-in-chief instructed.
Royalties are easy to calculate, 700 million copies, different batches and different prices are calculated separately.
In the end, the Ministry of Finance gave an accurate figure.
One thousand seven hundred and twenty eighty thousand!
This is the pre-tax figure, but even after deducting the personal income tax, Yu Wenfei still became a multi-millionaire with just one book!
There is a golden house in the book, the ancients will not deceive me......
Chapter 119 How big is it
Yu Wenfei was studying at home when he received a call from Dong Xiaoxue.
"Congratulations, great writer, you are about to become a multi-millionaire!"
Dong Xiaoxue said excitedly, as if she was about to get rich herself.
In fact, it was almost the same, Yu Wenfei's book was a big hit, so as the editor in charge, Dong Xiaoxue's bonus and commission were also quite a lot.
Of course she would be excited.
Yu Wenfei was taken aback for a moment, and then understood what was going on.
He smiled and asked, "Why, are you going to settle the royalties?"
"That's right, our publishing house is a big publishing house, and we don't have the habit of defaulting on royalties. Before the time comes, we will calculate your royalties."
Dong Xiaoxue didn't forget to brag about her company.
"How many copies have you sold in the past few months?"
Yu Wenfei is also a little curious about the sales volume, although recently in the newspapers, the Commercial Printing House has invited many people to praise his book.
What "sell tens of millions in three months!"
What is "the hottest year in 2000!"
What "a phenomenon-level youth love story that ignites campuses across the country!"
Although these words are not random bragging, there is still some basis, but the exaggeration is still too much to believe.
He himself didn't know how many copies he had sold.
But in any case, there should be 500 million copies...
"Hee hee, the actual sales are already 700 million now, and there is still half a year left, and it is a sure thing that the sales will exceed [-] million this year!"
Dong Xiaoxue said happily.
over ten million...
It may be every editor's dream to be able to create a book with annual sales of tens of millions in his own hands.
Not only can you reap benefits and honors, but it is also a sense of accomplishment.
After hearing this number, Yu Wenfei was also a little lost.
So much.
