Chapter 521 (1/2)

The room was quiet.

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: ”gentlemen, since the dividend agreement is not workable, then we can go on the bet contract.”

Cole's eyes lit up and said, ”what does Mr. Shaw mean?”

Xiao Yunhai said: ”my meaning is very simple, that is to determine the proportion of dividends by the sales volume of novels. If the sales of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone exceed 10 million copies, I will take 20% of the dividend. If the sales exceed 20 million copies, I will take 25% of the dividend of 10 million copies, and so on, until I can get 100%. What do you think? ”

Xiao Yunhai's method is very beneficial to him.

The cultural atmosphere of this world is much stronger than that of previous generations. The stronger the stronger, the weaker the weaker.

Just like Xiao Yunhai's martial arts novels, one is better than another. Today's ”Legend of Shooting Heroes” has exceeded 50 million copies. After reading this novel, fans who feel very good about it return to buy Xiao Yunhai's other three novels, thus forming a virtuous circle.

The sales volume of other writers' works is not a little bit lower than that of Xiao Yunhai.

Xiao Yunhai sells 50 million copies. If they can sell 5000 copies or 50000 copies, it will be good.

Seven ”Harry Potter” sold 4500 million copies in the previous life. In this world, it is conservatively estimated that it can be at least half as high as 900 million copies.

Even if an average of 100 million copies, Xiao Yunhai's profit from this method is much higher than that of Gelin.

What's more, once Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone is on fire worldwide, the starting point for copyright is not 20%.

”That's a good way,” Greene said. Mr. Xiao, we need to discuss it and give you an answer later. ”

Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, ”of course.”

Xiao Yunhai and Jesse got up and walked out of the reception room, leaving room for them to discuss.

Xiao Yunhai stood in front of the window in the corridor and asked, ”Jesse, do you think they will agree with my dividend method?”

Jesse said confidently, ”sure. Their pursuit of money is far beyond your imagination. However, the starting point of 20% is impossible. They will press down to 10%, and finally both sides will step back to 15%. This is their strategy. ”

Xiao Yunhai was surprised and said, ”how dare you be so sure.”

Jesse said with a smile, ”I know them so well. If you don't believe it, let's make a bet on a bottle of French Louis XIII. How about that? ”

Xiao Yunhai said: ”it must be a decision. I'll tell you, I've never lost in gambling with people in recent years. ”

”You're going to lose this time,” Jesse said confidently

While they were talking and laughing, Cole opened the door and said with a smile, ”gentlemen, our discussion has come to an end.”

Xiao Yunhai and Jesse look at each other and return to the reception room together.

Xiao Yunhai asked, ”I don't know what result the four gentlemen discussed?”

Cole said with a smile: ”we fully agree with Mr. Xiao's distribution method, but the starting dividend point should be pressed at 10%

When Xiao Yunhai heard this, he glanced at Jesse, who showed a satisfied look on his face, and said, ”this is impossible. Ten percent is too low. I won't agree with it in any case. ”

”Mr. Shaw, we think that's a very appropriate ratio,” Greene said. To achieve 30 percent, ”Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone” only needs to sell for 50 million. ”

Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, ”Mr. Green, I want to ask you that in the past two years, your publishing house has sold several works with sales of more than 50 million yuan. Don't say 50 million, I'm afraid 30 million is not much. ”

”But this book has the potential,” Greene said
