Chapter 776 (1/2)
”I believe you will be more successful!” Qin Feng said with a smile.
Even without the copyright income from the film market, the success of books alone is enough to make JK Rowling a billionaire.
After all, Harry Potter is the best-selling book of the 21st century. It sells more than 500 million copies worldwide. This is an extremely amazing figure.
In the west, the price of a book is very expensive. Qin Feng remembers that some media reported that the price of a complete set was $136 in the West.
The price of a single copy is about $28. It costs $9.99 for the paperback version or the paperback version that has been fully set later.
Even if calculated at $10 a book, global sales exceed $5 billion. As an author, JK Rowling can get at least about 15% of the royalties.
Of course, if Harry Potter is so successful, JK Rowling should be able to get a more proportional royalty share.
After all, this is a well-known author. In this way, even if the book sales of $5 billion are calculated according to 15%, there will be at least $750 million.
In fact, there are income from peripheral products, reprint royalties, conversion to comics and so on. Its revenue, Qin Feng estimates, will still exceed $1 billion.
So she will be really rich.
”Remember to come to me when you are free!” JK Rowling personally drove Qin Feng to the airport.
”I will! See you next time! ” Qin Feng got on the plane with a smile and flew directly to Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic.
What Qin Feng knows about Prague comes from a song by Jay Chou: Prague square.
As for the others, the most famous is its football player: Nedved.
When I came to the streets of Prague in 1997, it was similar to what I saw when later generations introduced Nedved through television.
Western society has not changed in recent decades. Everything is the same as before. After all, they have experienced the initial stage of social development, unlike China, which is full of waste and waiting for prosperity.
Just came to Prague, Qin Feng began to have a headache. How to see if there is any heavy industry to buy?
After all, I'm not familiar with my life.
When Qin Feng had a headache, he had to find a bar to sit down and enjoy the good time in Prague square.
This also made Qin Feng find that the Czech people are also super beer loving people. It's said that Germans like beer. Qin Feng seems that it's not too much to pick up guests.
In this street, there are no drinks. They drink big beer.
”Lala ~ ~ ~ Lala ~ ~ ~ Lala ~ ~ ~” Qin Feng was drinking beer and humming a tune from Jay Chou's Prague square.
This feeling is pretty good.
”Hi, young man!” An old man suddenly came over.
Qin Feng was stunned and hurriedly got up.
”What's the matter, sir?” Qin Feng greetings.
The old man is estimated to be in his 70s and 80s, but his bones are still strong.
However, Qin Feng doesn't know him.
”Are you Chinese?” The old man asked.
Qin Feng nodded.
In today's Czech Republic, the streets are full of people. Qin Feng looked and found that he was really the only one with yellow skin and black hair. There are few people from Asia here.
”Ha ha, China is a very ancient civilized country. At first, in the anti communist movement, I also met a Chinese friend. But I don't know how he is now. He later said that he would return home to join the war and defend his country. ” The old man fell into memories.
