Rebirth As a Writer In Britain

Chapter 147: Crazy call

Since the press conference, Kevin has not left London, but continued to live in the Sykes Hotel. Nok Ah Wu, the manager of Sykes Hotel on Baidu search for literature.com, also recognized Kevin after reading the news, so he planned to waive him.

"Kevin, I think I should provide some help to our British writers, don't you? You must know that "Why I Was Born" you wrote is so wonderful, it has become a guiding light in my life." Nock A. Five said to Kevin.

"Thank you, respectable Mr. Nok Awu, I think God will bless those kind people."

"Thank you for your blessing, oh, you can live here as many days as you like, don't worry, I have ordered the following, and they will try their best to meet your requirements." Nok Ah Wu sincerely told Kevin Said.

Kevin would naturally not covet these, he planned to go back to Edinburgh after a while. After all, when I came to the press conference this time, I had already asked the school for a few days of vacation, and now I have another position as the chief editor of literature, so things are naturally busy.

Kevin talked with Nok Wu for about half an hour before leaving and returning to his room, but just as he sat down, the phone rang suddenly.

"Hi, hello, are you Mr. Kevin? I'm from the Scottish Literature Publishing House. Can I talk to you?"

"Yes, I'm Kevin."

"Oh, we want to talk to you about the cooperation of the new book "Robinson Crusoe", please don't worry, Mr. Kevin, no matter what, as long as you can let us publish "Robinson Crusoe", what conditions do you propose? I promise you all." The person from the Scottish Literature Publishing House said politely.

Kevin would have expected such a day to come, after all, many people who care about literature were watching the moment he announced his new book. Now that they have so much attention, they will definitely not miss this "Robinson Crusoe".

"Scottish Literature Publishing House? If I remember correctly, it is one of the best publishing houses in Scotland, publishing many excellent works every year." Kevin said.

"Yes. Since Mr. Kevin knows the strength of our Scottish Literature Publishing House, please feel free to sign "Robinson Crusoe" to us. Oh, we can make an appointment to chat slowly. Don't worry, You are free to make your own request."

The other party heard Kevin praise their publishing house. Very happy in my heart. Because it means that Kevin has a certain understanding of his company.

In fact, as Kevin said, the strength of the Scottish Literature Publishing House is the best in Scotland, and they have published many best-selling masterpieces over the years. For example, last year's smashing novel "The Sex Under The Lamp" was published by the Scottish Literature Publishing House. And the book also won last year's quarterly sales champion.

Kevin is no longer the young man who used to write the head. He took the manuscript of "Jane Eyre" to submit and was ignored and threw it into the trash can. In the end, Enni paid a price to buy it. Finally, it was published, but due to the buyout, he didn't get much remuneration. And film and television contributions have to be divided in half with the other party.

But now, he has begun to make his mark in the literary world. He is not so stupid to sell all the copyright to the publishing house. Besides, with his current fame, he doesn't need to worry about no one signing with him anymore.

Therefore, he must fight for a different treatment for the new book "Robinson Crusoe". Therefore, Kevin made his own request to the other party: "Thank you for your importance to my new book. I just want to make one condition. I only sign the text copyright for this new book, and I want to pay 10% of the royalties. If you If we can agree to this condition, maybe we will have a chance to have a good talk."

"What? You are only willing to sign the text copyright to us? What about the film and television copyright? We can discuss this."

The people at the Scottish Literature Publishing House were a little surprised when they heard Kevin’s offer. After all, in addition to the copyright of Kevin's text, they are also pursuing other copyrights this time. But now Kaiwen has proposed that he is only willing to sign text copyright with himself, which really disappoints them a bit.

"Yes. If you can agree to my request, I decided to talk to you. Otherwise, I really can only thank you for your attention." Kevin said firmly.

"But Mr. Kevin, even the most smashing old authors now, they are willing to sign the film and television copyright with the publishing house. So, can you think about it, maybe we can give you a high share in the film and television copyright." Scotland Literary Publishing House is still not giving up at this time, and continues to lobby.

", Dear Sir. This is my only request, if you can agree to it. Then we will make an appointment for a good chat."

"Well, let's think about it. Please don't rush Mr. Kevin to sign Robinson Crusoe to other people?" the person at the Scottish Literature Press requested.

"I can't be the master of this, maybe when other publishing houses show their sincerity enough. You know, even God will be moved by those sincere people, let alone me." Kevin said.

When the other party heard Kevin say this, his heart became anxious. But he didn't dare to make a decision quickly. After all, Kevin’s requirements are a bit too demanding, at least for the parallel world of Britain.

Because, as the people at the Scottish Literature Publishing House said, many smashing writers are willing to sign the copyright of film and television to the publishing house when they are in the new book. Of course, because of their fame, they naturally account for the bulk of their remuneration. However, not many people have just signed the copyright of the text with the publishing house, as Kevin proposed.

This condition really caused headaches for the people of the Scottish Literature Publishing House. Finally, in desperation, they could only hang up the phone with Kevin, and then meet with relevant colleagues to discuss.

As soon as the people from the Scottish Literature Publishing House hung up the phone with Kevin, Kevin’s cell phone kept ringing, and in just an hour, he answered one call after another. And all of them are related to the new book "Robinson Crusoe".

"Hello~www.NovelMTL.com~Hello, are you Mr. Kevin? We want to talk to you about the new book "Robinson Crusoe". As long as you can sign it to me, any conditions will do. ."

"Hello, Mr. Kevin, can you sell "Robinson Crusoe" to our publishing house? If we can, we will try our best to meet your requirements."

"Kevin, I was also a student at the University of Edinburgh, so I counted as an alumnus. Looking at this relationship, you can see if we can make an appointment to have a good talk, my new book "Robinson Drifting" "Ji" is full of interest. So sign it to me."

"Kevin, can your "Robinson Crusoe" be signed to our publishing house? Can we make an appointment to meet and have a talk?" (to be continued)
