Freelance Artist Chapter 220

Chapter 220 The publisher's profit doubling plan!

A few days later.

The news heat caused by the incident of Baidi's loss of horse has finally subsided a little. The change in life is not as great as Lin Zhibai imagined, that is, when he goes out for a run to exercise his body, he will occasionally be recognized by others, but in fact, most people When I saw celebrities on the road, I didn't dare to confirm whether I had admitted the wrong person. Even if I was sure that I was not mistaken, Lin Zhibai ran so fast, he was too embarrassed to go up and ask for his autograph.

certainly.

Occasionally, some people still muster up the courage to have the cheek to ask for an autograph, so what Lin Zhibai is most annoyed about now is giving autographs. Hearing these two words gives him a headache, and it is easy to think of the day when he lost his horse. The scene, although he basically will not refuse it.

this day.

Saturday.

Lin Zhibai came to Shinhwa Publishing House again, and he came by the driver's car. As the president of Shinhwa Publishing House, he now has an assistant secretary and a driver.

Walk into the company.

Lin Zhibai feels that everyone is staring at him with burning eyes. Lin Zhibai has seen this kind of gaze a lot recently and is almost used to it.

"President!"

"Hello, President!"

"Come on, President!"

"President, I am your fan!"

"When will the president release a new song?"

"Is it okay to play "Sorrow" in the company cafeteria today?"

"How about playing "Gong Xi Fa Cai"!"

After Lin Zhibai's fall, the employees of Mythology Publishing House knew that the president was Baidi, and everyone's attitudes were different from before. There was obviously admiration in their eyes. In other words, he had control over the company. Seems to be stronger?

is also very good.

Lin Zhibai didn't put on airs, he would nod in greeting, and then drag the middle and high-level people into a meeting as usual.

The mid-level and high-level employees are no different from ordinary employees. Everyone's eyes are very hot and full of curiosity when they see Lin Zhibai, as if they have re-acquainted with the president.

All right.

It seems that only Rhoda Bailey and Ren Jiachun seem to be a little emotional, looking at Lin Zhibai with very complicated eyes.

"A meeting."

Lin Zhibai didn't care what everyone thought, knocked on the table and said, "Wang Zi, how is the progress of your software project?"

"Everything is done according to your orders!"

Wang Zi's mental outlook is completely different from before. One is because he discovered the potential of the software, and the other is that his mood has changed slightly after learning that the president is Baidi. very beautiful.

"Um."

Lin Zhibai is quite satisfied with Wang Zi. He asked his secretary to keep an eye on him. This guy is not entangled with Luo Da. After losing his position as editor-in-chief of the reasoning department, he has now devoted himself to the company's new projects.

After a few words of encouragement.

Lin Zhibai said again: "I have a new plan, which is still related to the Internet. The market for physical novels is already saturated, and we need to open up a larger market, so I decided to build a website called Qinzhou Chinese Website... "

Qinzhou Chinese website?

What the **** is this?

Everyone in the conference room looked confused, and for a while, they didn't know what this Mr. Lin Zhibai Baidi, who was full of news recently, wanted to do.

"Is such that."

Lin Zhibai smiled and explained: "Recently, I found that many people have the habit of reading some articles on the Internet. If this area develops, it is likely to impact the physical book market in the future, so why don't we take the initiative to develop the Internet? market, my positioning of Qinzhou Chinese Website is an online novel website.”

"Internet novel?"

Everyone understands this explanation.

Luo Da immediately shook his head and said: "Although the general public occasionally read some small articles on the Internet, the reading habit of the vast majority of people is to buy physical books and read books on the Internet. I have been publishing for so many years, and it is unheard of anyway. of."

The new president is quite capable.

It doesn't matter if you want to listen to books before.

Now he is doing web novels in a whimsical way?

Physical book publishing is the fundamental model for the survival of the book market.

Blue Star has not yet produced the concept of online novels. This is actually Lin Zhibai's project inspiration recently obtained from the "Start Chinese Website" in his previous life memory. This is a model that has been successful in his previous life. The international industry has also made some gains, achieving a certain goal of cultural output. Didn't you see that Lao Hei didn't even smoke vape after reading online articles?

And in Blue Star.

Although there are no online novel websites yet, it doesn't mean that they won't appear in the future.

Since Lin Zhibai thought about it, he must act first, and the successful examples in his previous life are not limited to "Starting Chinese Website".

In Xiaori Kingdom.

There is a top publishing house.

It seems to be called "Kadokawa Press".

This publishing house has several websites.

are Sneaker library, Fujimi Fatasia library and Dengeki library!

These three websites are equivalent to the "three major online literature websites" of Xiaozhaiguo. Everyone can serialize novels on them. Many classic animations of Xiaozhaiguo are actually adapted from the light novels published by these three websites.

For example, "Sword Art Online".

For example, "Magical Forbidden Book Catalog".

For example, "My Sister Can't Be This Cute".

Wait, wait, etc. These anime masterpieces in Little Days Country are all adaptations of novels from Dengeki Bunko. Works like these that have achieved relatively good results on the website will be selected by Kadokawa Publishing House to arrange physical publication. That is to say, these three websites can be responsible for Screen out works with certain market potential for this publishing house!

It is this model that Lin Zhibai wants to copy.

Most people in Blue Star like to read physical books. That's right.

But this is because the Blue Star people don't know the concept of online novels yet.

Lin Zhibai believes that after the establishment of the online novel website, there will definitely be a large number of online novel readers.

As for the books with better performance on the website, let Mythology Publishing House arrange physical publication.

"The threshold for physical publishing is too high for some people. Many people who dream of writing want to go the way of a publishing house, but the publishing house only publishes so many books every year. There are always some leftovers that we ignore, right? ?"

Lin Zhibai needs to convince at least half of the people to support his decision.

If you can't be persuaded, just force it. Anyway, I am the president, and if I fail, I will pack up and leave.

Successful?

That is naturally the credit of my foresight.

"And the Qinzhou Chinese website I want to create will allow writers whose novels do not meet the publishing requirements to have a channel to publish their works, and leave the results of their works to the majority of netizens to decide. If the results are poor, we will also Nothing to lose, but if the grades are good, we can arrange physical publication..."

Lin Zhibai talked eloquently.

The middle and high-level people went from bewildered to thoughtful.

Ren Jiachun suddenly pointed out: "If this website does not develop, we will suffer losses. Even if this website develops, we will also suffer losses. It will change readers' reading habits and affect the sales of physical books. If you want to read books online, what should our publishing house do..."

Lin Zhibai was a little surprised.

Ren Jiachun's worry is actually not unreasonable. The other party is not trying to raise the bar on purpose, and he has a longer-term vision than others.

Sanbo's people?

Can you become your own person?

This thought flashed through Lin Zhibai's mind, and Lin Zhibai smiled and said, "Firstly, the styles of online novels and physical books are different, and secondly, reading habits are not so easy to change. Most people who like to read physical books will continue to read physical books. , besides, physical works can also be released through online channels, which involves another plan of mine, we can make an electronic product.”

"product?"

"Ebook."

In fact, it is the Kindle made by Amazon in the previous life.

This thing failed in the Chinese market in the previous life, but this model has a good influence in the world, because there is nothing wrong with his model, but there are too many competitors in Amazon Tianchao, such as HKUST Xunfei and Aragonite, etc. Major hardware manufacturers have launched new e-readers to squeeze them out of our market. "At that time, physical books can also be read through e-books. What we want to sell is not hardware, but electronic paid reading!"

"That has a greater impact on physical books..."

"However, diehard fans of physical books will still buy physical books, and the other channels are in our hands. They pay our publishers or pay for our e-books. There is not much difference in essence, but the way readers read will change. Something has changed."

Lin Zhibai reminded everyone.

"I can think of this, and others can think of it. It's just a matter of time. Instead of waiting for others to do it first, it's better for us to share this cake first. You should know the importance of being the first. Let's start voting, who For who against?"

Lin Zhibai issued an ultimatum.

The high-level executives raised their hands one after another.

The number of people who support it is obviously less than the number of people who oppose it, and it is not known whether they support the project or Lin Zhibai.

But it is enough to have support.

Lin Zhibai said: "Then let's start preparing for the website project." He began to call names, directly using the high-level executives who he found to be reliable after his own observations to be responsible.

The elder uncle, the second uncle and the third uncle don't care.

If these projects are successful, Lin Zhibai will be able to control the life and death of these people, because the group only looks at performance.

If Lin Zhibai has a good track record, then no one would dare to talk nonsense when he talks about it in the publishing house.

Website project failed?

Ebook project failed?

Of course it's all possible. After all, the market environment is different, but Lin Zhibai is now very capable of resisting risks.

Because audiobook software is almost a project that is destined to succeed, if this project succeeds, it doesn't hurt that other projects fail, and the profit must be more than the loss.

What if all succeed?

Then Lin Zhibai will be able to achieve the goal of doubling the profit of Myth Publishing House by six times, and completely become the real boss of this company!

Rhoda, Bailey and Ren Jiachun also understood.

Lin Zhibai didn't want to engage in any office struggles with them, he was betting on the success of these projects.

If these projects can be successful, everything Lin Zhibai says is right.

The losses caused by these projects were too great, so Lin Zhibai packed up and left.

"He has too many ideas."

"Let him mess around."

"Anyway, we still get paid."

"If these projects of his are successful, then I am convinced, and it is okay to let me go, but why did he do it?"

"software…"

"eBook..."

"Internet novel…"

"It doesn't sound like a reliable one!"

"With such a big step, I'm not afraid of scratching my head!"

While the double is not over yet, let's ask everyone for a monthly pass. Here I can promise you that there will be an update every day for Wubai this month!
