"Xiaopowan, please add this QQ number and he will contact you in the afternoon. Again, don't make a decision easily."

The next morning, after finishing writing a chapter on his mobile phone, Fang Nian switched to QQ and saw this message.

The time was ten minutes ago.

Donggua is used to Fang Nian being slow in replying to messages, so she usually doesn't rush him.

Fang Nian quickly replied to the message.

"Okay, I have already sent a friend request to the QQ you gave me and noted my information."

Winter Melon’s reply was quite timely: “That’s fine.”

As early as the 1st, Winter Melon had mentioned this matter in advance. Today is the 3rd, neither early nor late.

I sent a friend request but got no reply. Fang Nian didn’t care and was busy with his own affairs.

...when class was about to end during the lunch break, my phone vibrated.

A message that the friend request was approved was at 2:01 pm.

After Fang Nian read the prompt message, his phone vibrated again.

After pressing the '5' key to enter, it will display: Chatting with the starting point peak...

"Hello, let me introduce myself. I am the editor of Qidian. Just call me Jianfeng. How should I call you?"

Fang Nian: "Hello, just call me Xiaopowan."

Jianfeng: "The book "I Want to Be Rich" has done very well, and all aspects of the data are of high quality. After comprehensive consideration, I have decided to invite you to become Qidian Platinum Author."

No sloppiness.

Fang knew Jianfeng in his previous life, and also knew that he introduced the platinum writer system in 2006.

Nowadays, the levels of writers at the starting point are not as clear as they were later. There are lv1~lv5, long contract, great god contract, and platinum contract.

Before 2006, there was not even a platinum writer system, only professional writers.

Then Jianfeng sent another message:

"Let me briefly introduce to you the Qidian Platinum Writer System. This is a system launched under my leadership..."

"A new contract, a new way of cooperation, a different allocation of resources..."

"..."

Fang Nian calmly sent a message asking: "What happens next?"

Jianfeng: "Qidian has a lot of resources. Last year, Shanda increased its capital to Qidian by 100 million yuan..."

"..."

After seeing the news from Jianfeng, Fang Nian came to the conclusion through analysis, combined with current factors and his understanding of this era:

It's not that "I Want to Be Rich", a book that breaks the rules in every aspect, has such potential, but that the traffic from the starting point is only so great.

Qidian invited him to become a platinum author in order to stabilize the inflow of more traffic.

"I understand. Personally speaking, I am willing to join."

Fang Nian said it very cleverly.

"I heard by chance that you are leading the full copyright operation plan for online literature. I wonder what this has to do with the contract?"

Fang Nian had plans as early as he was aware of the possible contract issues.

His goal is not those seemingly generous shares, nor the tilt of resources, but only one: copyright.

This item is the key to many authors earning tens of millions in royalties a year in the future.

Jianfeng: “My main work direction in the past few years has been to promote the full copyright operation of online literature.”

"But your book has too few words..."

Fang Nian: "There is something I don't know whether to say or not."

"please."

"The resources offered by the platinum contract are very tempting. I wonder if I can exchange this invitation for the opportunity to prioritize copyright promotion and have the right to know in advance, participate in, and make major suggestions in copyright transfer negotiations?"

"This... is actually not necessary. The resource allocation of the platinum contract includes prioritizing the promotion of copyrights."

"But no authority."

"..."

After several rounds of confrontation, Jianfeng relaxed a little.

"There are too many full copyrights, which gives us a certain degree of autonomy. Currently, most of the works are sold in simplified and traditional Chinese, audio, games, animation, comics, and film and television."

"How about this way, I only need four copyrights: audio, games, animation, and film and television? I believe there will definitely be more adaptation possibilities in the future."

"Games, animation, movies and TV."

"good."

"I'll keep the platinum contract for you. When you think about it clearly, we can sign it again."

"..."

On the surface, Fang Nian suffered a lot of losses because of the conditions that were originally included in the contract and only gained part of the control.

But Fang Nian doesn't think so.

Sometimes, a contract is a huge bondage.

Although the share ratio is increased by 20%, there will be corresponding restrictions.

Fang Nian clearly knows that he will not continue to engage in restricted creation in this life.

That’s why we gave up the advantages in the contract in exchange for limited dominance.

Fang Nian remembers that various copyright disputes will soon arise, and they are nothing more than a matter of interests.

If there is a contract in black and white, there will be no disputes.

This is also a two-pronged preparation. Firstly, it is not bound by a platinum contract, and secondly, it has the right to take control and will not sell the copyright at a low price.

After all, it is the first novel.

"I will send the new contract to your email. After you confirm it is correct, print it in two copies, sign it, and send it to me directly by courier."

Jianfeng finally sent the message.

"The address is: Shanghai...the phone number is: 135..."

A few minutes later, Fang Nian replied: "No problem."

It's just a supplementary contract, about limited copyright participation rights, not complicated.

Fang Nian, who originally thought that the matter was over, burst into laughter after seeing the next message sent by Jianfeng.

"Well, I have something to tell you. This morning we have reached a cooperation on the Simplified and Traditional Chinese copyright of "I Want to Be Rich"..."

Fang Nian's lips curled up, and he thought to himself: "It's a bit interesting. It can be said that everyone is happy now."

This world is like this, everyone has his own agenda.

Fang Nian: "I think it's okay."

Simplified and Traditional Chinese copyrights are generally not very profitable, unless the first printing sells very well.

Sure enough, Jianfeng sent specific figures: "After financial accounting, the pre-tax income you can receive is 50,048 yuan."

This is the share of the first printing.

But the sales of these books are quite considerable, reaching almost 800,000 to 1 million.

Fang Nian replied in agreement: "I hope it will sell well."

"It's a pleasure to cooperate." Jianfeng seemed relieved.

"..."

During the few minutes of chatting, Fang Nian also learned that Jianfeng had also updated the novel.

Praise him.

This is good, Qidian editorial department has almost become his readership.

Shortly after chatting with Jianfeng, Donggua took the initiative to find him.

"I didn't expect you to exchange the contract for the control of the copyright. How confused!"

"It's a pity, but maybe, copyright is the bulk of the income after all."

Fang Nian: "Take a step back and the sky will be brighter."

Winter Melon: "Indeed, keep up your performance and I will invite you again at the end of the year."

Fang Nian smiled.

This probably means peak.
