I have a full-time hero system

It is very distinctive.

Dawn Publishing House, where Yuan Xiao is going, is located in the south of the city, which means it belongs to the oriental civilization.

As expected, it was recommended by Zhou Zhengyi, the largest publishing house in the Principality.

Just the main building, this publishing house is eighteen stories high.

This is not a small company in terms of the capital.

After entering the publishing house, Yuan Xiao explained his purpose to the front desk.

The little girl at the reception dialed the phone and got a quick response.

This kind of place, if you don't go through the front desk, you generally can't get in.

After receiving the instructions, the receptionist took the two of them to the elevator entrance, swiped their cards and pressed the button for the twelfth floor.

As the vice president of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Zhou Zhengyi still has a lot of face.

Therefore, it was Yu Guang, the director of the publishing house in charge of the professional section, who met Yuan Xiao.

He looked like an amiable middle-aged man.

"Sit," he warmly entertained, "it must be Teacher Yuanxiao recommended by Vice President Zhou."

"Yes," Yuan Xiao sat down, "If I come back to this time, I'm planning to publish a book."

"Deputy President Zhou mentioned it to me," Yu Guang said with a smile on his face, "it seems to be a physics major."

Yuan Xiao nodded: "It is the content of my archaeological discovery."

"Actually, I'm quite curious," Yu Guang asked with a smile. "Normal academic papers are usually published in the form of papers or posted on the World Patent Network. How could Teacher Yuanxiao think of publishing a book?"

Of course, in order to cut leeks.

But you can't say that, Yuan Xiao corrected his attitude: "On the one hand, although I am the discoverer, what I actually discovered was only works in Western languages.

This time, Vice President Zhou participated in the translation of oriental characters.

In addition to content and verification, etc., if you want to put it on the World Patent Network, you might as well publish a book and try it out. "

Saying this, Yu Guang expressed his understanding.

Paper media is still very popular in this world.

Leaving a book is equivalent to establishing a higher status.

He is responsible for the publication of books in the professional sector.

There are all kinds.

Thinking of this, he decided to tell the truth: "Teacher Yuan Xiao, since you have made up your mind, then I will tell the truth."

Chapter 301 Publishing Books

To Yuan Xiao, Yu Guang is still very polite, after all the relationship behind it is Zhou Zhengyi.

The world of science and technology has a considerable influence in this world.

But the publishing house also has its own interests.

"Teacher Yuan, the published content should be more professional and academic." Yu Guang tried to ask.

Yuan Xiao affirmed: "It is the content of this aspect. It is divided into two languages, Eastern and Western. This is a part of the manuscript."

As he spoke, he handed over Newton's manuscript and Zhou Zhengyi's translation.

Yu Guang picked it up and looked at it carefully for a while, then he nodded and put the manuscript down.

"Teacher Yuan, let me be blunt," Yu Guang said sincerely, "You know academic books well, and the audience is not very wide, after all, not many people can understand them.

Therefore, there will not be many people who are willing to spend money to buy, and the sales volume can only be said to be stable. "

This is for sure, Yuan Xiao knows very well that his purpose is only to target the world's physics community.

"The publishing of books is generally divided into two modes," Yu Guang introduced, "One is public publishing. Simply put, you don't need to pay. Our publishing house helps publish books and promote them, and what you get is the remuneration.

The author's remuneration is about 12.00% to [-]%, and the proportion of this share is transparent. "

Yuan Xiao nodded.

"There is another kind of self-publishing, that is, you pay all the expenses, and we are only responsible for publishing the book. Although there are expenses in the early stage, if it sells well, your income will naturally be high." This is another method of Yu Guang .

Yuan Xiao understood: "So in fact, most of the academic books are published at their own expense."

Yu Guang admitted: "It's like this, only some people are sure, and our publishing house will take the route of publishing at public expense.

Teacher Yuan's work needs to be reviewed if it is to be published at public expense.

The review process takes half a year to a year, which is hard to say. "

It's normal, even if it was written by Newton, the cautious attitude of the publisher is understandable.

The influence of paper media in this world is not small, but it also means fierce competition.

Leading publishing houses like Suguang have no shortage of book resources.

It is better to take the risk of publishing an incomprehensible book, which has a wider market.

Yuan Xiao knows this: "Then my book, it seems that the model of self-publishing is the best."

"That's it," Yu Guang took a stack of materials and handed them over, "This is the cost of self-publishing."

The first is the ISBN fee. Each book has its own ISBN code, which is uniformly assigned to each publishing house.

There are two types of ISBN, series number and single book number. The price of the series number is about 1, and the price of the single book number is more than [-].

Then there is the printing cost, which is very complicated.

It has something to do with the number of pages of the book, the quality of the paper, etc.

In addition, there is an editing fee, which is about one or two hundred per thousand words.

In addition, there are costs for typesetting, design, shipping, etc.

After everything came down, Yuan Xiao estimated that if he wanted to publish a book at Shuguang Publishing House at his own expense, the cost would be 10 to [-] yuan.

For the current Yuan Xiao, this is tantamount to an astronomical figure.

Relying on my meager salary is not enough.

Su Ye on the side knew Yuan Xiao's embarrassment, so she couldn't help shaking her head secretly.

"Then what," Yuan Xiao gritted his teeth, "What I'm talking about here is the lowest fee."

Yu Guang nodded: "The standard package for the small set meal is this amount.

However, self-publishing is tantamount to saying that Mr. Yuan paid for it himself, so this piece is highly flexible.

For example, you can let others sponsor you to join, and then you can share the profits if you sell well later.

We only look at the actual funds in place, and we don't ask how the money came from. "

This was an obvious matter, Yuan Xiao was silent for a while, and he dialed Zhou Zhengyi's phone number.

Explain the cause and effect of the matter.

Zhou Zhengyi on the other end of the phone smiled: "I know Teacher Yuan Xiao's plan, I should pay for the book publishing fee."

"Then how embarrassing it is." Naturally, Yuan Xiao wanted to be polite.

"It's okay, after all, I am also one of the translators." Zhou Zhengyi is the vice president of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and he still has some small money. What about physical books?"

Yuan Xiao retreated first: "I just don't know how the sales will be."

"Hahaha," Zhou Zhengyi smiled, "Not many people will buy such dry academic books.

It's okay, even if it is a loss, compared to the meaning of the matter, it is a drop in the bucket.

Don't save money for my brother, that would be to underestimate me. "

Zhou Zhengyi's attitude was very firm, Yuan Xiao pushed back, and finally agreed.

Very resistant to death, need is such a big head.

I want money, sorry, Yuan Xiao doesn't have it himself.

Back in the office, Yuan Xiao expressed his attitude.

"That's fine," Yu Guang also smiled. Although it is a small business, the main thing is human affection. "I will supervise this matter as soon as possible."

There are many books published every day, and of course it will be faster if someone follows them.

The two parties immediately signed the contract.

The final number of published books is [-] volumes.

The places where it was released were the capital of the Principality of Princes and the city of Rilenville.

Strictly speaking, Yu Guang didn't pay much attention to this little matter.

Compared with the hundreds of thousands of bestsellers, these are not enough to fit the teeth.

Yuan Xiao didn't care, he didn't brag about his iron face.

After the matter was done, Yuan Xiao was in a good mood and invited Su Ye to a big meal.

The place where the two of them sat was the place where food stalls in the capital were concentrated.

I ordered two fried rice noodles, a total of 24 yuan.

"Let me tell you," Yuan Xiao said loudly, "cultural people like us don't pay much attention to money and interests.

Literati have the same name, what they want is the name.

This book is for people in the physics field, so [-] copies is already a lot.

As long as it is guaranteed to be sold out, I figured it out, and Lao Zhou would lose a little.

In other words, if you spend tens of thousands of yuan, you can have your name recorded in the annals of history. If you think about it, it is something that individuals are willing to do.

As for me, heck, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter.

......"

Su Ye sneered: "Is this the feast you mentioned?

Come on, Yuan Xiao, if Xiaoman doesn't understand your thoughts, I still don't understand.

In other words, it doesn’t work if you don’t have money all the time. "

Yuan Xiao shook his head: "I've said it several times.

For an excellent human being like me, the value is not reflected in money.

Xiaoman understands me better than you. "

Su Ye picked up the water and took a sip, losing the strength to complain.

As night fell, the neon lights around the area lit up.

Because of the proximity to the sea, the wind that blows over has a bit of a damp smell.

Yuan Xiao didn't know it, he was still eating rice noodles.

Su Ye turned her head, looked at the blurry street corner in the distance, and narrowed her eyes.

Chapter 302 Warning

Yuan Xiao understood at a glance: "Acquaintances I know."

Su Ye didn't hide it either: "You have good eyesight, you know him, but you're not familiar."

Yuan Xiao didn't say anything about this, he continued to eat rice noodles.

Su Ye pushed the bowl and chopsticks, and she walked towards the corner of the street.

Yuan Xiao wanted to go over to have a look, but thinking it should be Dongfang Xiaoman's family business, he held back his thoughts for the time being.

Dongfang Xiaoman didn't say anything, and Yuan Xiao didn't ask about some things.

There will always be a day when things will be known, and he is not in a hurry.

Don't say it, of course there are reasons not to say it.
