Marvel’s Princess Becomes King
Chapter 140: The dust settles
The fat teacher Elijah’s words are very philosophical. He pointedly stated that the social legal system is becoming more and more civilized. Bella agrees with this, but feels that his words seem to have not been finished. According to the language structure, it seems that there should be something behind. There is only half a paragraph left...
Just as she was about to ask the second half of the sentence, the phone rang, and Professor John Gray informed Bella that the publisher had news and hoped she would come by.
Realizing that her New York journey is coming to an end, and that she didn't meet any bad guys from start to finish, let alone those bad things, Bella happily said goodbye to the fat and elegant teacher.
"I'm waiting for your new book to hit the market, and I will definitely buy a collection at that time." The fat teacher Carl Elijah smiled like Maitreya Buddha.
"Don't worry, I will give you a signed copy at that time!"
"That's it! A poor history teacher like me is really under pressure to buy bestsellers."
Leaving the library, Bella took a taxi to Random House.
With the recommendation of old Professor John Grey, she definitely can't get the treatment of a newcomer.
The editor of Random House also read her. The writing is okay, the plot is compact, and religion will cause some controversy. However, the publisher is afraid of less controversy, not afraid of more controversy. The more controversy, the better the book will sell. It makes sense logically, even if Washington is a direct descendant of Jesus.
As for the many places in the book that discredit France, that is not a problem.
The human trafficking incident in Paris is such a big noise. A large number of domestic feminist organizations march and demonstrate every day. Democratic and Republican lawmakers also spray the French government on various public occasions. There is no problem at all to discredit France. Black France is now politically correct!
Bella’s Da Vinci Code can be said to keep up with current events, has suspense elements, and has a certain plot reasoning. It combines detectives, horrors and conspiracy theories, and can maximize the public’s interest in religion. It is a rare good book.
Others don't say, at least these editors have been fooled. They don't know much of the knowledge in it. The view that the Mona Lisa is Leonardo's self-portrait is even more amazing.
Several editors agree that this Da Vinci Code has publication value.
Bella's appearance is also a plus, beautiful writer! What a great promotional material!
It would be great if they signed it at the price of cabbage, but they couldn't do it.
Bella once again invited Jerry Hogarth's firm to take charge of the legal work on her side. The female lawyer herself is still in Paris, but it is fine for her firm to send two lawyers to help negotiate the contract.
Even though Bella has found a lot of relationships before and after, she is still a newcomer in essence. Random House has done a detailed internal evaluation. The first print is expected to be 100,000 copies, and the price of a single copy needs to be calculated later. Pull royalties are set at 8%.
This is a number that newcomers can never get. Even for many famous writers, this number is not low. A well-known writer can ask for 15% or even 20% of royalties, but you dare to speak, Then publishers dare to conceal the number of prints!
Based on several considerations, Bella finally approved this number.
If a single copy sells for $20, she can get a pre-tax royalty of $160,000 after selling 100,000 copies.
Random House will add an additional print, and she will continue to take the money at a rate of 8%, release the hardcover edition, or increase the price. She can still benefit proportionally. The publisher is responsible for all kinds of publicity and rankings to get the upper hand. Hold the small head.
She owns the film and television adaptation rights, advertisements, and peripheral toys. Of course, this is also limited. It is impossible to say that Notre Dame de Paris is mentioned in my book. Then I will hold out my hand and this Notre Dame will belong to me. Up! Cultural heritage is not within the scope of this ownership.
Random House wanted to sign the five-year publishing rights of the book. Bella was confident in her book. She only gave three years of rights to the book, and finally set a four-year deadline.
After four years, she will automatically take back the publishing rights of the Da Vinci Code book. It's free to keep it for yourself or find a new publisher.
A series of contracts were signed, after which the promotion of the Da Vinci Code was entrusted to Random House.
Links such as selling miserables, interviews, and setting up beauty writers, etc. need to be operated after the first wave of word-of-mouth. That will be at least two months later.
"Thank you, Professor." Leaving Random House, Bella thanked Professor John Grey for helping to match the bridge.
"If you want to, thank Charles. He is a billionaire and I am just a university professor."
The fat old man said cheerfully. Bella knew that Old Charles would play some role in it, but she would not underestimate Professor John Grey's help.
Professor Charles and his X-Men never showed up again. Bella was in a happy mood, walking with wind, almost singing a song, returning to San Francisco.
The whole trip to New York was perfect without any twists and turns. The people I knew were either professors or teachers, and all of them were cultural people. Bella cleared her suspicions and her physique was fine! It must be my cheap sister who is always looking for things for herself!
......
As news from various parties continues to ferment, Interpol rescued many girls, and the influence of the Paris human trafficking incident is spreading worldwide.
The Americans have no writing on their faces. Traffickers can't just stare at the Americans. The girls who are trafficked come from all over the world. For a while, tourists from all over the world are talking about Paris and they are distracted. Traveling? Go dreaming!
Do not carry two guns, do not have the strength of a black belt, and do not have a team of more than 100 people. It is not recommended to travel to Paris!
Many economists are pessimistic about Paris' economic prospects this year. After paying the girls 100,000 to 300,000 euros for their mental losses, the French government announced its surrender...No, it announced the resignation of the president and the general election.
These things Bella is just watching the fun~www.wuxiaspot.com~ while scaring the murderous woman Heather.
According to her words, such a talented talent as the big wicked girl can sell at least one million in France! Those high-ranking French officials will probably break their heads, or even hang up a finance minister or something.
In early June, Charlie and Samantha bought a red BMW M3 for the little girl to celebrate Natasha’s 18th birthday.
Seeing that the dust settled in Paris, they approved their travel plan. Go out to play, but don't go too far.
The two are also a little worried, where is the right place to go?
"Do you know how to swim?" Bella asked suddenly.
Who do you look down on? Natasha curled her lips gently: "Go swimming now?"
The two said to leave, bringing their swimsuits, sunscreen and surfboards, driving Natasha's new car, and hurriedly leaving California.
There are a lot of beaches in California, but there are more tourists, they want to go wild swimming in more remote places!
