Start with the script kill shop

Chapter 418 Beware of Fraud Trap
Galaxy Script Club, a legend in the script killing industry.

Just as legendary as Xinghe Script Agency is the card game studio.

The former opened a script killing shop and opened a hot search, and later opened a script killing theme park directly.Although in the eyes of most tourists, Galaxy Script Theme Park has little connection with Script Killing.Many tourists can't remember the full name of the amusement park at all. They only remember that it is an amusement park or the Galaxy Theme Park on the outskirts of the city. proportion.

Taiping Town comes from "Master Chef".

The movie theater comes from "Time and Light Cinema".

The theater comes from "Red Tears".

The haunted house is from Dollhouse of Horror.

Snow Village comes from "Frozen World".

Even the performances in the toy theater, many people think of "Toy Story".

Family members, isn't this love of script killing?

Is there anyone in this world who loves the script killing industry more than Mr. Jiang Qi, the boss of Xinghe Script Agency?
No!

In this industry, no one dares to say that he loves the script killing industry more than Jiang Qi, although he doesn't care about his own script killing shop at all.

Compared with Xinghe Script Agency, the card game studio bound to this script killing shop is even more mysterious.

It can be said that the store owners who opened the store have never seen such a weird release.

You have seen many releases that sell bad books, and you have seen many releases that engage in marketing and publicity to cheat money.But this kind of book is sold at sky-high prices, and the customer service is very bad-tempered. He loves to buy or not, and never shows up at exhibitions. This is indeed the first time I have seen the release of shop-paid bills.

Many people think that the card game studio is basically bound to the Galaxy Script Club, and all the script-related attractions in the Galaxy Script Theme Park are all books produced by the card game studio, making everyone even more suspicious There is an ulterior relationship between the two bosses.

Many people think that the card game studio is Jiang Qi's industry, and he produces and sells it himself.

The above remarks are all from Jiang Jun's narration to Jiang Qi.

After Jiang Qi finished listening, he was already in a daze.

He felt that the shock could no longer describe his current mood. He felt as if his mind had just been bombed by an atomic bomb, and everything was gone, leaving only a blank space and a flat land.

"Why... why?" Jiang Qi asked the question he wanted to ask the most in his heart with trembling lips.

"What and why?" Jiang Jun didn't quite understand.

Jiang Qi waved his hands, holding his head with his right hand: "My mind is a little messed up now, can you let me smooth it out?"

A few minutes later, Jiang Qi, who felt a little sober, chose a core question and asked: "Assuming that what you just said is the industry's opinion of me, but what does this have to do with Xinghe Script Agency's name as a producer? ?”

From Jiang Jun's remarks just now, Jiang Qi can only hear that everyone seems to have a deep misunderstanding of him, misunderstanding that he is a super rich man who loves the script killing industry very much, but this has nothing to do with the influence of Xinghe Script Club.

What Jiang Jun wanted was to sell the book, but it was a consensus that the card game studio couldn't sell it at all.

It is useless to be famous, the price is too expensive, and there are too few people who are taken advantage of.

Normal stores that buy card game studios can't draw cards at all, and buying them is pure resentment.

"Because you are very famous, Boss Jiang." Jiang Jun said calmly, explaining carefully, "JC is a brand-new issue that is not well-known. The staff on the big release side, I would like to ask them to provide some help with paid publicity."

"And then, they didn't agree?" Jiang Qi began to eat melons.

Jiang Jun smiled wryly: "They agreed, but they wanted me to leave the city limits."

"City limit?"

Because Jiang Qi has never bought other city limits, so he is not particularly clear about the difference between city limits and boxed.

In Jiang Qi's view, the city limit is a limited edition box.Because it is a limited edition, and a city stipulates that only 3 copies can be sold, it has virtually caused competition among stores, so the price will naturally rise, and it can sell for several times the price of ordinary boxes.

"So you guys can't write the city limits? But I remember my sister complained to me before. Apart from the very famous ones, many of the city limits are also bad copies, but they are limited edition bad copies. The city limits and the boxed ones have What's the difference? Is it a bigger requirement?" Jiang Qi was a little curious.

Jiang Jun thought for a while: "Under normal circumstances, we would assume that the quality of the city limit is better than that of the box. But that's just the original. Now many stores are switching to distribution, and there is no so-called quality standard in the script market. The quality is packaged in a box, and there is a limit to what kind of quality, so the overall quality is still mixed."

"Then why do the people over there ask you to distribute the city limit? If the quality of the book is good, the box-packed sale should make more money than the city limit?" Jiang Qi didn't quite understand.

In his opinion, the limited editions sold at high prices are definitely not as popular as the cheap ones, at least the toys in amusement parks are like this.

Just like the board games that Principal Peggy is currently developing, Principal Peggy's pricing for the first batch of board games is very cheap.In Principal Peggy's view, board games are extremely easy to imitate, and once they become popular, they are easy to be pirated. The best sales model to quickly capture the market is to make small profits but sell quickly.

There is a fixed factory here in the amusement park, and the cost of mass production is definitely lower than that of pirated copies.

As long as the amusement park lowers the price first, takes the route of piracy so that piracy has nowhere to go, and grabs the market first, then the follow-up will launch hardcover editions, deluxe editions, and Spring Festival limited editions with more comprehensive gameplay and higher prices. , The New Year Special Edition is very easy.

Of course, the above are all the personal thoughts of Principal Peggy.

Jiang Qi is indifferent to whether board games make money or not. Board games are a means of publicity for amusement parks, and making money comes second and publicity is the first priority.

Amusement parks are not without industries that lose money for publicity, and comics are.

The comic group is still losing money, and the income from online comic subscriptions alone is not enough to pay for the huge advertisements thrown out by the publicity department, but the comic itself is to promote toys.

Every cent invested in comics will eventually be earned back in toy sales.

Therefore, Peggy wants to seize the market with a low price. Jiang Qi has no problem at all. Let alone small profits but quick turnover, even if he doesn't make a cent or even loses money, as long as he publicizes the incredible magic academy, it will be worth it.

Of course, selling things is not for making money, this is just the idea of ​​rich bosses like Jiang Qi and Peggy for publicity and confidence.Jiang Jun is just the owner of a script killing shop. She doesn't sell her books to make money, but to contribute to the script killing industry. Jiang Qi doesn't believe such nonsense.

Jiang Qi looked at Jiang Jun.

Jiang Jun smiled wryly: "If the quality of the script is excellent, then of course there is no problem selling it according to Boss Jiang's idea, but..."

"As a store owner, Lao Cao and I have read the scripts and scripts over the years, and most of them have a certain aesthetic ability for the script itself. We know how much the scripts we have written, and we can only say that they are fair. It has a certain commercial nature, and if it has the ability to promote it, it should be able to sell, but don’t even think about it.”

Jiang Qi nodded to express his understanding. If the script itself is of such a quality, then publicity is very important.

For store owners, buying a book is like opening a blind box unless they test the book in person at the exhibition or watch it onlookers.I don't know anything except the poster, cover image, profile and real name.

In this case, if the release of the hype makes a new book particularly famous and many customers want to play it, then it is normal for the store to buy it without thinking.

I don’t know how many bad books are sold every year with this method. First, they smashed advertisements and sold them for a fortune, and then counted the money at home with rave reviews.

Jiang Qi also understands Jiang Jun's character, and knows that she hates this kind of publicity the most. After all, JC was deceived into buying a lot of bad books because of this kind of publicity a few years ago.

"If the quality is not good, why send the city limit?"

"Because the other party promised that if the city limit is issued, they can help us sell 300 copies."

Jiang Qi calculated in his heart, based on 2000 yuan per copy, 300 copies would be 60 yuan.After excluding the cost, publicity, and the money distributed to the author, Jiang Jun should be able to earn about 20.

A lot.

"Sounds good, what about the conditions over there?"

"They are named as the producer, and they get [-]% of the profit."

"Sounds okay, and it's also a producer, and it helps with publicity. The [-]% profit is not too much."

Jiang Jun shook her head: "They only put on names and don't advertise."

Jiang Qi: ? ? ?
"In the words of the other party, they can sell 300 copies under that title."

Jiang Qi: ...

Jiang Qi looked at the ceiling silently, and felt that the shape of this ceiling lamp was really good and unique.

He looked at Jiang Jun silently again, and felt that Jiang Jun didn't look like a fool, why are liars these days not willing to make up tricks to deceive people.

Telecom scammers work harder than them. They make phone calls every day, and those who engage in foreign fraud have to improve their English. Such a comparison is quite inspirational.

"Are you sure the person you contacted is the person who issued it?" Jiang Qi said tactfully.

Jiang Jun didn't answer: "Lao Cao and I are not stupid, maybe they are famous, but we don't think their fame is worth the price."

Jiang Qi nodded frantically.

Then he found that Jiang Jun was looking directly at him.

Jiang Qi: ?
? ?
???

Jiang Qi silently sat back a little, his whole body almost stuck to the back of the chair, with a cautious expression on his face: "Could it be that you think my fame..."

Jiang Jun nodded heavily.

"We know that even if we sell 500 copies, you probably won't like [-]% of them, Mr. Lijiang. But this is the most profit we can make. This book was not written by me and Lao Cao. We have to share the money with the author. There are printing costs, and we may have to go to several exhibitions in addition to the autumn exhibition, and we will not be able to make more profits."

"This is the book that will be tested tomorrow. You can check the quality of the book before deciding whether you want to name it as a producer. Although this is not such a good quality book, we can guarantee that it is not a bad book, and it will not insult Xinghe Script Club." reputation."

"In terms of publicity, we will not use the name of your store for excessive publicity, and all publicity plans will be communicated with you in advance."

Jiang Jun's posture can be said to be very low.

Jiang Qi: ...

You guys are not stupid, you guys are simply mired in a quagmire of fraud!
Jiang Jun, Boss Jiang, aren't you an inspirational representative of the Xuncheng script killing circle who started from scratch?
Don't you firmly believe that doing business should be down-to-earth, step by step, and not opportunistic or crooked?
What's the matter with you, Boss Jiang?

You were brainwashed by that liar!

Jiang Qi thought for a while: "Recently there is a foreign grandmother in our amusement park. She is proficient in various fraud methods and knows many fraud cases. Would you like me to contact her, and the two of you can make an appointment to communicate with each other."

Jiang Jun heard Jiang Qi's implication, and showed a disappointed expression: "I probably understand, Boss Jiang, you are not interested in this kind of thing, so do you still want to participate in tomorrow's test?"

"It's not that I'm not interested..." Jiang Qi hesitated, he was very interested in publishing, after all, he had to go to the exhibition to sell board games.

JC intends to be a publisher and get involved in the distribution circle. It will be much more convenient for Jiang Qi to help sell board games directly through Jiang Jun.

It's not that he doesn't think it's okay to be a producer, he just doesn't want to be a fraudster.

Jiang Qi might be quite interested in being a fraudster for 3 million, but it is really unnecessary to be a fraudster for 30.

If you don't do anything and get [-]% of the profit, the underworld dare not do this.

"Wait a minute, I'll make a call and ask."

Jiang Jun nodded, and left the room considerately, so that Jiang Qi could rest assured to make calls in the room.

Jiang Qi's consultation object is of course Principal Peggy.

Principal Peggy is not very in favor of taking [-]% of the profit for nothing.

Although Principal Peggy is a well-known big capitalist in the wizarding world, wandering on the edge of the law all the year round and even stepping in directly (how many countries in the magical world have no laws), but Principal Peggy also feels that there is no need to do this for small money immoral thing.

Morality and word of mouth are very precious, and they should be spent on big money.

"Mr. Jiang Qi, if you really think that Ms. Jiang Jun is a very trustworthy ally, and you believe that she is willing to help her, I have a way here."

"If I remember correctly, the special card [Script Writer] is now being installed on your computer, and this computer is currently placed in the No. 1 compartment of the DaDa Theme Hotel on the train."

"That's right." Jiang Qi said with certainty, "[Script Writer] is now managed by a playwright, and the chances of producing high-quality scripts have been much higher since his three stars. Playwrights are now busy revising scripts and rehearsing new plays every day. You Do you want to use the [Script Writer] to write a script to kill the script?"

Since the [Script Writer] was summoned, it hasn't written many scripts for script killing.In the beginning, it was used as a story writer for the spirits of toys, specializing in generating movie scripts. Later, the playwright was drawn out by Jiang Qi, and the [Script Writer] was used to write drama scripts.

In the beginning, when Wang Xinghua couldn't write the libretto, she also had the idea of ​​a [script writer], but there is still a big gap between the opera script and the ordinary script.

The libretto is used to sing well, not only the rhyme, but also the plot of the story, as well as the literary talent must be considered.Even if the 【Script Writer】has three stars, it is difficult for strong software to generate the libretto of a top-level opera like "The Mulberry Picker", and it cannot be generated at all.

The libretto cannot be generated, but the script killed by the script must be fine.

After all, this is what [Script Writer] does.

In the original world, didn't Mr. X rely on the [Script Writer] to dominate the script and kill the circle, and was finally murdered?

"It's not writing, it's changing." Principal Peggy corrected.

"change?"

"Mr. Jiang Qi, you don't intend to sell scripts as a serious publisher, right?" Principal Peggy asked.

"of course."

"That's why I said it was revision, not writing." Principal Peggy said, "Isn't Miss Jiang Jun's script just a passing work of acceptable quality? Since you want to sell board games with her help, Miss Jiang Jun He is also a trustworthy person, and you don’t want to take [-]% profit for nothing but do nothing, then we should do something to prove that we are qualified to take [-]% profit.”

"They have already set up the framework and foundation of the script, so let's polish it a little bit and change the 60-point work to 90-point work." Principal Peggy said lightly.

Jiang Qi only felt enlightened.
.
An hour later, the JC staff lounge.

The current staff lounge is much more lively than before. In a small room, there are not only Jiang Qi and Jiang Jun, but also Cao Luoping, Li Liang and Jiang Cha.

Li Liang is the author of JC's upcoming new book and is a friend of Cao Luoping.

The newcomer Li Liang stared nervously at Jiang Cha, who was reading the book calmly and quickly. Not to mention he was a little nervous, both Jiang Jun and Cao Luoping were a little nervous.

"What's the situation now?" Cao Luoping asked Jiang Jun in a low voice.

"Didn't I tell you? Jiang Qi agreed to be the name producer, but he wants to find a professional to check the quality of the book." Jiang Jun replied softly, "But this girl doesn't seem to be from their script store, I think with..."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Cha, who had already finished reading the book, closed the book.

Jiang Jun shut up in an instant, and the three of JC sat up straight in an instant, with their backs as straight as elementary school students waiting for the teacher to check.

"I've finished reading it. It's just as you said, so-so." Jiang Cha said with a smile, her voice and tone were her standard soft tone.

Li Liang swallowed nervously: "Yes... What's the problem? There is still time, if I have, I can..."

Under Jiang Cha's smiling gaze, Li Liang struggled to utter the last word.

"change."

"In my opinion, it needs to be changed, but it's up to us to change it." Jiang Cha said.

"You changed it?" Cao Luoping was a little puzzled, and looked at Jiang Qi, "Boss Jiang, do you have professional writers here?"

Jiang Cha got up, and stretched out his hand to Cao Luoping: "Let me introduce myself, my name is Jiang Cha, and I am the financial director of Xinghe Script Theme Park."

"Before I was transferred to Galaxy Script Theme Park, I worked in a card game studio."

Three people:!
"About this script, I don't think there is much problem with the overall structure. Our boss feels that if we want to cooperate, both parties must show sincerity."

"We can't take [-]% of the profit for nothing. We won't do much in terms of publicity, but we can provide some help in terms of the quality of the script. If the three of you don't mind, I think the test book tomorrow afternoon can be temporarily cancelled. A script was brought back to my contact person for revision, and the product is expected to come out within two days.”

"There's no need to be a named producer, let's directly publish it together." Jiang Cha looked at Li Liang, "Mr. Li is the author, do you mind?"

Li Liang shook his head dizzily: "I don't mind, I don't mind."

Jiang Cha continued to smile: "That's good. Since this is a formal cooperation, our amusement park will ask lawyers to draw up the relevant contract. The details will be discussed after the amendment is made."

"It's getting late now, so we'll leave first."

Jiang Cha and Jiang Qi left JC, and almost as soon as they left the gate, Jiang Cha showed Jiang Qi the overtime policy: "Boss, did you just work overtime?"

"This is temporary overtime."

"Do the math." Jiang Qi nodded again and again, "Go back and calculate the overtime salary by yourself, and Qiu Zhan will take you there."

"For seven days, the same as Wang Xinghua, 3 yuan for travel expenses."

Jiang Cha smiled sincerely: "Thank you boss."

The three people in JC's office and some people suddenly felt like a dream.

Li Liang looked at Cao Luoping: "Old Cao, what's the situation now? Are we hugging our thighs?"

"It turns out that the card game studio is really connected with Jiang Qi. Could it be that the rumors are true and that the card game studio was also run by Jiang Qi?" Jiang Jun muttered, falling into gossip in her head.

Cao Luoping thought for a while: "Maybe..."

"Then if this book sells out, am I going to publish it?" Li Liang began to dream.

Cao Luoping glanced at his friend: "You are no longer a single author. If someone helps you to revise the manuscript, you must have an author's name, and the manuscript fee may be halved."

"Half a share is fine!" Li Liang didn't mind at all, "As long as you earn more than before, the person you contacted will pay [-]% for opening his mouth if he doesn't do anything. If calculated according to the previous situation, my The author can only get [-]% in the end."

Suddenly, Jiang Jun patted Cao Luoping on the shoulder.

"Old Cao, have you bought the ticket for the Autumn Exhibition?"

"I bought it."

"Did you buy Jiang Qi's?"

"This should be him..."

"Are you stupid? Jiang Qi usually doesn't even care about the script store. The last time he went to the autumn exhibition, Yan Huaiyou helped him buy the ticket. I taught him how to grab the parking space. How could he know how to buy the ticket? Pick a room."

"Hurry up and entrust Jiang Qi to buy the highest-grade issue tickets for Jiang Qi, and help him get the advertising space, leaflets... I think we have to help him print the leaflets, isn't he going to sell board games? He must be useful. "

"Oh oh oh, good."

"Okay, what's the matter, go to the contact."

"But my wife, it's already 11 o'clock in the evening."

Jiang Jun said bitterly: "It's only 11 o'clock, who in the script industry is not awake, hurry up and contact your friends!"

"Good wife."
