What should I do if the system forces me to copy books?

I used to think that simplified physical publishing is very profitable, and every quarter can earn hundreds of millions of dividends, but I didn't expect that even the physical book publishing of comics is so profitable!

If Li Chungang knew how to make money like this, I am afraid that "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" would lose [-] million rounded up.

This is the horror of Huaguo's 60 billion market. It is no wonder that so many foreign countries are trying their best to enter the domestic market to seize the market. Who is not tempted?

Chapter 404 Further Expansion of Business

The lower ones use force, the middle ones use wisdom, and the upper ones use people.

Professional things to professional people to do!

Lin Meng was quite satisfied with Qi Tong's pre-preparation homework and the overall self-confidence shown, nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "In this case, I will hand over the negotiation of the copyright of the comics and comics of "Full-time Master" to the Emperor Penguin. It's up to you to take responsibility."

After hearing Lin Meng's words, Qi Tong almost couldn't restrain his excitement and jumped up on the spot. Fortunately, his excellent self-control was perfectly displayed at this time, and his eyes lit up and he said: "Thank you, Mr. Lin for your trust! Mr. Lin waited for me!" Good news!"

It can be said that the goal that Qi Tong, including his entire team, has been fighting for for several days has been perfectly achieved, and the next thing to consider is how to hand over to everyone in the company, including Lin Meng, in the shortest possible time. A satisfactory answer sheet.

He firmly believed that as long as the task this time was completed beautifully enough, then their small team that had been temporarily formed for less than three days would be justified, and who else would be the leader of this team! ?From a small employee of the cultural department to a small leader who manages a team of No. 0 and No. 1 people, this is a qualitative leap from "[-]" to "[-]".

"Never fight an unprepared battle" is Qi Tong's creed. Although his people are still staying in Lin Meng's general manager's office at this time, in fact, his mind is already full of ideas for the next plan, so he falls into the trap. In Lin Meng's eyes, it will look like...

Distracted.

"Knock Knock-"

The crisp sound of knocking finger joints on the solid wood table interrupted Qi Tong, who was in deep thought, and made him realize that he was still in Mr. Lin's office at this time, so he quickly apologized: "Sorry Lin Boss, just now I was thinking about the next plan, and I was a little distracted, do you have anything else to order?"

"I just want to remind you, don't forget that the audio reading copyright cooperation with Zhizhen Audio has also been completed by the way, and there is no need for our usual sharing of cooperation for audio reading, just squeeze them dry. A copyright buyout fee that is sincere enough will do.”

This decision was made by Lin Meng after some deliberation. Compared with the steady flow of water, she prefers to control the money in her own hands, and the current pace of the company's development... or the speed of the pace She is still not too satisfied.

Because the Ministry of Culture's main business is online literature, it is indeed not in a hurry, and it can slowly accumulate under the two gold-lettered signs of "Zhi Chun Zhi Gang" and "He Miao Miao Miao".If the works of many authors want to be popular, if they have not directly become the founders of the school like Li Chungang and others, it still depends on the right time, place and people. The three are indispensable.

It’s a bit like casting a wide net in it. Anyone who thinks there are potential Internet writers can sign a contract with a literary agent. If one of them stands up here, then all the previous efforts of the Ministry of Culture can be doubled. As for Now, although it is a bit helpless to say so, it is true that we can only rely on two gold-lettered signboards to top it.

The only one who can do it is the media department.

According to Lin Meng, it is indeed time to expand the business of the company's media department. Except for the "Sword Come" project, it has not been involved in other areas. For an entertainment media company, resources are a bit too wasteful.It's okay in the short term, but in the long run, I'm afraid profitability will become the biggest problem!

You can't rely on Li Chungang to keep injecting capital into the company, can you?In addition to the meaning of serving oneself, the core of starting a company is to make money, not to spend money.

Ordinary film and television investment companies mostly focus on investment, and their business scope is not too large. They tend to focus on a certain field, or select several related copyright affairs to achieve linkage.Such as IP operation, script adaptation and development, investment and production of film and television dramas, comic animation production, peripheral derivatives, etc...

Lin Meng's idea is that [-]% of the main business is investment in film and television dramas, and then he can take care of IP operations, drama adaptation and development, and artist training.In the entertainment industry, all film and TV drama investment companies will also run the artist business. Simply put, they will find and sign some artists who are not yet well-known or relatively well-known, and then invest in film and television dramas through their own companies. After being popular, it can bring benefits to the company.

This is a win-win model for artists and companies.

This is also an unspoken rule that the entire entertainment industry almost acquiesces to.If you don't add a plug to the investors of your own company's artists, it is estimated that they will become a kind of "heterogeneous" in the eyes of insiders. Lin Meng has never thought of being this kind of heirloom, and he doesn't have the capital.

If there are enough artists under the banner and their reputation is big enough, it will also greatly improve the company's image.Therefore, we have to consider expanding the business of artists.

Think of this-

Lin Meng opened a brand new article on his office computer, and then typed the word "artist" on the title bar, and said to himself: "In the current situation where the company's reputation is not obvious, you can consider signing an article in the early stage." Some potential major students, or newcomers in film and television, try to use the resources we have to make them popular."

"When the contracted artist business expands, we can continue to expand some film and television drama investment projects in the future. For those of us who are new to the entertainment industry, we can choose to start with the web dramas adapted from web texts from the places we are most familiar with. Try it!"

No matter what industry you are in, there are invisible thresholds that cannot be touched or seen, and the same goes for the entertainment industry!It’s not that you can ignore everything if you are rich and powerful. If you don’t have enough capital and strength, no matter how rich you are, people just don’t want to “play” with you, they just don’t want your investment. Sometimes you are really There is no way.

Therefore, for Wensi Quanyong Culture Media Company, which started from the web literature, the most familiar one must be the web literature. In this case, under the circumstances of insufficient foundation, investing in web dramas adapted from the web texts they are most familiar with has become best choice.

Also, if you want to expand your business...

At present, the company's cultural and media departments will appear to be a little insufficient.

From this point of view, at least two departments, planning department and artist department, must be added. Fortunately, Lin Meng has considered this issue before, and rented an entire floor when looking for a new office space for the company. , at least you don’t have to worry about the embarrassing scene of insufficient office space due to the addition of new departments and new personnel.

Chapter 405

The core positioning is always based on film and television investment, which is equivalent to a method of making money with money. If there are good scripts or novels suitable for adaptation, they can also be bought first and hoarded as strategic resources.In the early stage, try to focus on low-cost online dramas, and then consider large-scale productions in the later stage, and even large-screen TVs are not impossible.

After straightening out the general context of the artist department...

Lin Meng created another document without stopping, and typed the word "script" in the title bar.

Script development does not necessarily mean that you have to invest in the script and make it into a film and television drama.If you encounter an excellent novel or a good script, you can buy the script first, and then use the script to attract investment, or even hoard it in your hand for a period of time, and transfer it at a high price to generate a lot of income .For example, the orthodox entertainment company Wanxing Entertainment’s approach is to recruit a few newcomers from the company to the crew while casting the project itself. This is a matter of great benefit to the company and no harm.

"The establishment of the artist department and the recruitment and signing of artists must be done as soon as possible. After a while, the crew of "Sword Come" should be able to complete the preparations. In addition to the scheduled starring candidates and public audition roles, if their company rushes If we can sign a few good seedlings, maybe we can send them over to try out some decent supporting roles."

Lin Meng has already reviewed the entire "plan" that he came up with in his heart over and over again, to see if there are any omissions or mistakes.After confirming again and again that there were no mistakes, he nodded and said to Qi Tong who hadn't left yet:

"There's nothing else, Qi will go down with you and get busy."

"Okay, Mr. Lin."

"Xiaoxiao, help me call Minister Wei of the Media Department, and Ge Hongwei and Lang Yi come to my office together."

"Okay, Mr. Lin."

As soon as Qi Tong stepped out of the general manager's office, he heard the content of Lin Meng's conversation with his assistant behind him. He didn't have much impression of the latter two, but Wei Weiwei, the director of the media department, might be in the company. There are dozens of people up and down who will not know each other.

"It seems that you don't relax for a moment!" Qi Tong thought to himself as he walked towards the office area where the Ministry of Culture was located.Since he has not left the office, Mr. Lin can't wait to contact the media department. It is not difficult to guess that there must be important projects or tasks that will be handed over to these people. The perfect answer can stabilize the head of the media department, but now it seems that it may not be so easy.

The culture department and the media department belong to different office areas, but they need to pass through the same aisle on the way to the general manager's office.

then……

Qi Tong, who had just come out of the general manager's office, inevitably met with the trio who were about to go to the general manager's office in this aisle.

After confirming his eyes, he is the opponent!

No one who can get into the leadership in the workplace is easy. Just passing by like this, and the moment they look at each other, the two of them deeply remember each other's face in their hearts. At the same time, I am 100% sure that the other party will be my competitor in the future.

"Hello, Mr. Lin!"*3

"Sit three, I need to talk to you about something."

"It's like this...and...and...remember...and..."

"The opportunity has been given to you. Whether you can seize it depends on your own performance! Although it is divided into three departments now, the root is still the root of the media department, so you can work together. Lavida, artist Recruit Ge Hongwei to take charge, but there is one thing you must remember for me!

No unspoken rules are allowed!If signing an artist, first of all, the appearance must not be low, and it is best to have a talent that can be displayed, even if you don't learn it. "

"..."

Except for the four people involved, no one knows exactly what Lin Meng talked with these three people at that time. They only know that after the three people left the general manager's office, two new departments appeared in the company the next day. ——The artist department and the planning department, and the two new department heads.

Although there is still a bare-handed commander at the moment, this is not entirely a bad thing. At least building a new department from scratch can ensure the convincing power of the employees recruited by himself.If it is said that a new minister is promoted suddenly among the original employees, unless the new minister has enough popularity and sufficient prestige and convincing power in the department, otherwise convincing the public is definitely the top priority to overcome!

Bad is bad. Before recruiting employees, I'm afraid he, the minister, needs to do everything himself.

What is called a hands-off shopkeeper?

People like Li Chungang are completely hands-off shopkeepers.

While Lin Meng was handling all kinds of affairs for the company, he also had to take care of the company's business expansion, personnel changes, etc... He almost split himself in two from Tianling Gai. It would be great to know the technique of multiple shadow clones in the shadow ninja.

Entering the sophomore semester, it means that they are no longer the freshmen of Tsinghua University.

The biggest change may be a change in mentality. It feels like I have changed from a freshman who has just entered the school to an old fritter senior in the eyes of the next freshmen, and after a whole year of freshman year In the end, I gradually realized the cruelty of society and time waits for no one!

While you are sleeping, your classmates are studying;

When you are teasing girls, your classmates are studying;

While you are playing games, your classmates are still studying;

While you're relaxing, your classmates are still studying...

Being admitted to Tsinghua University, one of the top two universities in China, can only prove that they were excellent in high school, but it does not mean that they can continue to be excellent in college.When you are satisfied with handling all the subjects of the whole freshman year, you will find out later that the certificates passed by your classmates are about to gradually accumulate into a "hill" before you know it.

The book has its own house of gold, and the book has its own Yan Ruyu.

Whether there is Yan Ruyu or not varies from person to person, but Li Chungang is absolutely sure that "the book has its own golden house", although the money he earns from writing novels even far exceeds the amount of the golden house.

The idea of ​​"certificate theory" is still at the stage of debate in China. The teachers of the schools must encourage students to take as many certificates as possible, but some students are a little bit disapproving, and always insist that the certificate does not prove a person's ability. .

Then the question comes-

During the interview, the interviewer is neither your father, nor your mother, nor your relatives and friends who know you. When you meet for the first time, don’t rely on the certificate to judge a person’s ability. Do you still count on the interviewer? Like the male protagonist in the novel, does he have a golden finger that can see through a person's actual ability?

Chapter 406

While queuing up for lunch in the school cafeteria, first check the author's background data daily to see if any big brother readers have rewarded him with silver or gold alliances today, and then look at the status of the work page, and finally The focus is still on the monthly ticket and the book review area.

As the author, Li Chungang only needs to glance at most of the places. There are special managers in the book review area to sort out. Of course, when he encounters some interesting comments that can make his eyes shine, he still can’t help but reply in person. For a moment, as for those three disgusting trolls, sunspots, and idiots, they can be dealt with seriously by the management. The minimum package is 365 days. Feng did not escape.

For those daily posts in the book review area asking for updates, Li Chungang expressed helplessness.If you are not in charge, you don’t know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are. If you have never been an author and wrote a novel yourself, it is difficult to feel the difficulties and difficulties of an online author. A reader who pays a few cents to subscribe to a novel may finish reading it in a few minutes. Who knows, it may take the author several hours to write this content, not to mention adding updates, it is not so easy to maintain a stable update.

And it’s okay to add things like this occasionally. If it becomes a norm, readers will not have the pleasure of surprise. Over time, it will be like waiting for daily updates every day.Every reader's appetite is gluttonous, like a bottomless pit that can never be satisfied, the more satisfied the more demanding.

The term "wolf like tiger" is not only suitable for women, but also suitable for readers!

There are no big surprises when it's over, but there will be one or two surprises rewarded by the leader more or less every day.He raised his head and paid a little attention to the "cookers" in front of him, and roughly calculated that it would be enough time for him to surf the Wenjianghu forum to see if there was any gossip.

Yes, you read and heard right, Li Chungang also likes to surf the Internet Wenjianghu forum from time to time, but no one knows what his specific vest is, and most people who come to the Wenwenjianghu forum like to go to the main forum to browse, He doesn't!Instead, I like to wander around in the "Internet Gossip" section, and An Anxin plays the role of a melon-eating crowd.

Not to mention, I really found a very interesting post for him——

"On the 100 Wonderful Reasons of the Authors of Internet Articles"

First floor: "Lou Lou will give you a detailed breakdown of the weird reasons why the authors of online articles cut off updates. Of course, this post is purely for the sake of Bojun's smile, and there is no meaning of ridicule in it, so please be smart and moral. The Most High lifts up his hand."

The second floor: "Let me start with an introduction. Last week, when I was reading a certain work, I counted the reasons for the author's leave. The summary is as follows: Kidney stone surgery was performed 5 times, appendix surgery 1 time, hemorrhoid surgery 3 times, 3 fracture operations... In one year, a total of 27 operations, large and small, were performed, with an average of 13 days to undergo an operation. , just ask you if you are weird or not, or if you are crazy?"

Third floor: ...

Well, to be honest, Li Chungang was indeed attracted by this headline party at the beginning, but after reading it, he found out that it was the author of a small and medium-sized novel website. Because of his poor grades, he liked it every few days. Please excuse the update, and always find some weird reasons to prevaricate the readers. This time, there is no accident, and the update is canceled again, and the reason is that I was hit by an electric bicycle on the way home from work and broke my bones, so I can't code.

Originally, accident means unexpected. No one thought about it, and no one expected it to happen. The author is just an ordinary person. It is understandable to encounter such unexpected things.However, what I didn't expect was that some readers were actually so free that they ran to count all the reasons for the author's leave, and even took screenshots and ran to post on the online forum.

Fuck, now it's interesting.

"I can irresponsibly say that this author probably doesn't have a good part from head to toe, and there are traces of surgical repairs everywhere."

"You can perform kidney stone operations five times a year. I am so impressed by this alone. I am afraid that you are not strong anymore, and you are almost like sand."

"That's it!? I have an author here who has had five car accidents, three major surgeries, and been admitted to the hospital for twenty or thirty times with a cold and fever. I can only say that such a sick person Don't write any novels for He Meishen, hurry up and go to a Taoist temple or something to burn some incense."

"..."

Li Chungang was shocked. He never expected that these authors would do this in order to ask for leave... There are so many tricks!Some reasons for asking for leave are so nonsense that they are about to break through the Milky Way. Well, please forgive him as the author for laughing unkindly. It is better to find a more reliable reason, and it is self-defeating. Who is the joker on the Wenjianghu Forum?

No matter how bad you are, just be more sincere, and tell the truth in one sentence, say that you are in a bad mood today and don’t want to update, and the status is not good. fully understanding.

Like the guy who went to the brothel with the monk, his grades are good enough, and he has enough capital to squander it.

Conversely, I really can't understand those authors whose grades are not good or bad, and who are constantly changing.Don't you understand that sometimes hard work can make up for failures, and the most direct way to increase the number of updates is to increase the exposure of the novel, which can also improve the performance of the novel.

so……

You can have broken changes or something, but try not to do it if it is not necessary!

Of course, he just took a look at this post about the reason for breaking the strange flower. You must know that since he entered the industry of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" for more than a year, even if he maintains such a high-intensity update volume, he has never stopped updating it. Even for one day, it is not an exaggeration to say "the conscience of the industry".

If there is a model worker award for web writers, the first one is Yaoyang. It has never been broken for more than ten years, and I’m not just kidding with you. It has become a benchmark of hard work and persistence in the web literary circle. The second word is that Li Chungang still does his part!

Anyway, no one knew that the user named "Lin Shenjianlu" on the Internet Wenjianghu Forum was Li Chungang himself, so he couldn't help itching his hands for a moment and replied:

"Suddenly I can't remember the password of the author's account, and I can't update it and ask for a day off!"

As soon as the reply came out, people soon came to comment, and of course these were the first to respond.

"shocked!"

"I can't remember the password of the author's account, so the question is, how did the author send the reason for asking for leave?"

"Is the web version a deception?"

"..."
