What type of work is good at when you sign a contract with it if you publish and distribute it? I won’t say that the company has never been exposed to the second-dimensional light, and then it cannot be sold after signing it!

Now Zhang Chu's "The Lord of the Rings" has not even been sent to any chain bookstores or wholesalers for a sample book. Usually, even if those bookstores sign an agreement, they have to check the content before receiving it.

One truck after another transports printed books to different places, which makes the bosses and workers of the printing factory laugh from ear to ear.

Only when the books are sold well can their printing factories make money and workers get paid!

"It would be great if two more writers like Zhang Chu were released, and I wouldn't have to fill out such a complicated topic application form."

Although it has been more than ten years since I filled out this form, Gu Xinxue still wants to be lazy and he doesn't want to do these troubles.

The topic selection application form is a form that every editor must learn and use proficiently. This is the most important part of the birth of a book!

It includes the author's profile, content introduction, word count, number of pictures, type, selling point refinement, reader positioning, market analysis, comparison of similar works, etc.

Simply put, why do you need to publish this work?

The answer lies in this application form.

After the topic selection table is completed, a topic selection meeting will be held, with the editor, the director or director of each editorial department, the editor-in-chief of the company, the distribution department and the leader.

An editor like Gu Xinxue needs to explain the reasons why he made this book in front of everyone.

Finally, if you pass, you will formally select the topic and establish the project, then calculate the cost of the book and estimate the market sales to determine the printing quantity!

Now he has a lot of writers, but only Zhang Chu can just apply for a title.

Even old authors who have worked together many times have to fill in this, but most of the time the author himself does not know it because the editor fills in it later, and argues with reason.

Just as Gu Xinxue was thinking behind, a colleague suddenly came over and whispered: "Old Gu, I have a small thing here that needs your help, and I am just an intermediary."

"What's the matter? It's so mysterious?"

"A author who has been with me for almost five years asked me in private if I could ask Zhang Chu to help me with 500,000 yuan on Weibo, so that we can write a few words that Zhang Chu highly recommends on the cover of his new book. This author is quite good. He often chats. Before, he was also welcomed by me when I went to Xiangbei for a trip." Xiaoying Editor didn't say that this was a person who passed by a big sword, so he had to keep a low profile.

Gu Xinxue frowned in embarrassment: "He is quite willing to spend money and is willing to use 500,000 yuan to advertise."

"Yes, who made him a little bit awesome in this book? He only sold less than 200,000 copies in a year. If this new book cannot get up, it would be dangerous!"

"But you really found the wrong person. Zhang Chu couldn't advertise for 500,000 yuan. He has never posted these in Weibo. You might as well contact the agent. The agent has to be responsible for this matter."

"Lao Gu, you are his mentor! If you come forward, it is more useful than us. If he doesn't want to post a Weibo post, it's okay to just write it on the cover, or the same price. I'll ask him to transfer the phone number to you later. What do you think of this number?"

The colleague stretched out his index finger and compared it with a gesture of 1, wanting to pay Gu Xinxue's hard work.

You can earn 10,000 yuan by just talking, and this money comes too easily!

However, Gu Xinxue did not want to consume favors on this. He still shook his head: "Old Xu, it's not my fault that I didn't help you. That boy Zhang Chu is really not in trouble. I asked him to help him push the new book of the writer in his hand, but he didn't want to."

Anyway, Zhang Chu was not here, so he would take the blame.
Chapter completed!
