Chapter 832 Norse Mythology

"Nanhai Publishing Company compromised and agreed to our 18% royalty ratio."

Early in the morning, Zhou Kang sent his WeChat message to Zhang Chu's mobile phone because he knew that Zhang Chu should be teaching in the classroom at this time.

After feeling the phone vibrated, Zhang Chu took the phone out of the desk calmly, unlocked it with his fingerprint and looked down. It felt very bad to type with one hand, so he could only answer concisely: "I finally reached an agreement [thumb]."

Zhou Kang added over there: "But they also have a simple requirement, that is, we cannot promote the extremely high royalty ratio with the media, and must be kept confidential and not let the rest of the writers know."

Generally speaking, one of the inherent publicity routines of writers publishing new books is to promote the high royalties and record-breaking results by the media.

Just look at the reading or cultural sections of major portal websites and you will know that everyone is looking forward to this routine.

The 18% royalty ranks 100% top ranks. If released, the media and netizens will probably be surprised that Zhang Chu broke the industry's ceiling again!

But now the idea of ​​Nanhai Publishing Company is to make Zhang Chu and Hanlin Cultural Media make a fortune in silence.

In fact, "In the Name of People" does not require the exposure of royalties to promote it. The film and television adaptation plan announced last night has amazed Zhang Chu's readers and successfully expanded from the field of books to the field of entertainment.

"It's good, but if the outside world knows it, it may not be leaked by us. Maybe at that time, Nanhai Publishing Company will not be able to help spread these inside stories through the means of rumor in order to make the sales better."

Never underestimate the heart of businessmen who want to make money!

Zhang Chu pushed his cell phone back into the desk, then raised his head seriously, and found that the middle-aged female teacher on the podium was casting a stern look, as if she was very dissatisfied.

Any movement below can be clearly seen on the podium. These teachers see it but rarely remind you, which is much looser than high school and junior high school teachers.

University really relies on self-discipline. There are not so many teachers who will care about you, even in a top university like Yenching University.

Zhang Chu sat upright, holding a pen in his right hand and outlined the key points in the textbook, pretending to be particularly similar.

At this moment, what he was thinking about was finally getting the matter done. He received many private messages from readers every day. Many of them were waiting for the physical book "In the Name of People", but there was no news!

They are already adapted into film and television, but the physical book has not changed.

Many people are speculating whether Zhang Chu will give up this book, and it has been more than ten days since he finished it.

Under the news of its film and television adaptation, these readers gathered together to ask similar things.

"It's going to be released in TV series, but I haven't even finished reading the book."

"It's quite convenient to read books on your mobile phone, but if you don't have an account at the origin, you'd better wait to post physical books."

"@Zhang Chu@Nanhai Publishing Company@Hanlin Culture, are you planning to post physical books after the TV series is finished?"

"I have been writing the book for a long time. If I don't post a word, I'll go to read it!"

"It seems they have made enough money."

Fortunately, after Nanhai Publishing Company and Hanlin Culture Media reached an agreement on Zhang Chu's royalty ratio, although the contract has not been officially signed, the editor of Weibo cannot wait to release the news: "Recently, many friends are paying attention to the physical book status of Teacher Zhang Chu's "In the Name of the People". The company is currently in full swing and will meet you in the near future. Please pay attention to this blog when it is available for the specific listing time!"

...

"You dare to play with your phone in Teacher Xing's class. I'm so scared when I sit next to you." An Mi tidi chatted while packing up her books.

This is a good student who has never done such a thing.

When Zhang Chu was studying in his previous life, he not only played with his mobile phone, sleeping, chatting, and even fighting Landlords, so after being stared at him, he didn't have any particularly fearful or fearful thinking.

Of course, it is wrong to play with your mobile phone in class!

"I'm going to borrow two books from the library now. Where are you going?" Zhang Chu is now preparing for the new book. The next work he wants to write is an epic masterpiece, and he wants to have the ability to deserve that work.

Sun Ruiqi thought for a while and replied: "Isn't this about writing a reading review? I'm going to go to the library to write. I really don't have the idea of ​​writing things in the desk in the dormitory."

"I'll go too, but I have to buy two pens on the way." An Mi agreed.

Nowadays, many schools are typing homework on computers and printing them on a4 paper and handing them over.

However, Zhang Chu and his friends have to write their own reading notes, which makes them more formal, so they don’t forget how to write after studying in college for several years!

When I swiped the card to enter the library, there were students walking quickly in the spacious and quiet hall, but everyone pressed the sound of their footsteps very lightly, for fear of disturbing others.

Zhang Chu stood at the book index on the touch screen and entered the keyword "Nordic Myth" to search.

An Mi, who was waiting aside, was a little confused, "Why did you suddenly remember to read the myth?"

"My new book is about Western fantasy, so I look for this source to see. I can't say I want to write about fantasy, but I don't know how fantasy comes from."

"I don't even know that Nordic myths can actually be related to fantasy!" An Mi looked self-deprecating, "I really gained insights with the boss!"

"I don't know much, so I have to read books to make up for it. The book I am looking for is on the fourth floor, where are you?"

"On the sixth floor, we will find a book later and then go find an empty four-seater table. If anyone finds it, just go to Zhang Chu nodded and agreed. Sharing a desk with his classmates and friends is obviously much better than strangers!

They took the elevator to leave on the corresponding floors, while Zhang Chu looked around among the neat bookshelf. The things he was looking for were unpopular, and it was estimated that no one would come to borrow them once a month or two.

When we play fantasy and magic games or watch movies of this kind, we often find that the background, content and even professional systems of these entertainment works are similar.

Melee warriors, sneak attack assassins, ranged crossbowmen, magical wizards, sorcerers, and racial settings like humans, dwarves, orcs, and elves all come from the same place, that is Nordic myth!

Nordic myths are considered relatively niche in China. Compared with ancient Chinese myths and ancient Greek myths, there are not many people who know them.
