Shi Gui’s publishing house is listed under the China Silk Company’s publishing house. Strictly speaking, it is actually a book company.

Like many book companies in later generations, this company also relied on educational publications to make a profit. Of course, he also produced some famous novels from the mainstream.

The early 1980s was a season of lack of knowledge. If it were two years earlier, it would be difficult for everyone to find a book to read. When the mobile bookstore of Peking University was just opened, there was a crowd of people who wanted to buy books. Don't go in.

However, after two years of development, to the present of 1984, the lack of books has been relieved to a certain extent. Everyone no longer wants to buy everything, and Shi Gui's book company inevitably has a backlog.

Fortunately, the few sets of test papers Yang Rui made for him are still very popular. In addition, Shi Gui can get some orders from China Silk from time to time, which is considered a small gain.

However, compared with other industries of his time, his gains are far too few.

Not to mention the amount of money earned by reselling the approvals, it is the other people who go to the sea to do business, whether they are selling furniture, selling electrical appliances, or selling clothes, each of them earns more than him. As for the furniture and clothes manufacturers Those who make electrical appliances will earn more. This is truly an era of industrial prosperity.

In all industries, publishing alone is difficult to make money. On the one hand, they have to pay copyright fees. On the other hand, they have to be squeezed by the Xinhua Bookstore system. In addition, the paper required for printing is also a control material, and it is not easy to get the right price.

Finally, the pressure on publishing houses and book companies from piracy is comprehensive. In the 1980s, people were too poor, and every penny was saved from their mouths. If the books they wanted to buy were pirated, most people would not hesitate to save those pennies and cut them off for the adults and children in the family. It’s okay to cook a small piece of meat. As for the pirated book, the paper is not good and the handwriting is unclear.

For such a business, Shi Gui naturally became more and more indifferent.

Of course, it is a pity to give up. After all, if you go out of the cultural industry, you can raise your head a little bit. Moreover, this company is profitable after all. If it loses money, Shi Gui must find a way. Turn it off, but in a profitable situation, Shi Gui has to continue to maintain this business.

He just tried the water successfully, and he has more of his own printing plant than ordinary book companies, and he is reluctant to throw away this stall.

However, Shi Gui was very unhappy to say that he would reinvest the earned funds into the publishing industry, expand production, and increase the development of book varieties.

For him, this publishing house can maintain its current profitability. The rest of the money is better than doing some more profitable businesses, such as the catering industry he is familiar with.

Shi Gui still remembers how profitable his small restaurant in town was when business was good.

Now, whether it is a book company or a cafeteria, Shi Gui relies on Yang Rui's help, and the Mavericks who were humbled by Comrade Yang Rui are naturally protected.

Shi Gui confiscated Li Wenqiang's book number for a dime. He bought it for how much money, and sold it to him for how much money.

However, there is no way to print and sell. Shi Gui’s book company has not sold academic monographs. In fact, most book companies do not sell academic monographs. This kind of thing can make very little money. Not much earned.

If it is in a developed country, libraries and research institutions everywhere will also order some academic monographs, and the price will be higher, and this business will barely be done. There is no such condition in China. Except for specialized publishing houses, Xinhua Bookstore does not enter such academic monographs. For example, little-known elementary school students like Li Wenqiang can only take responsibility for their own profits and losses.

In short, Shi Gui printed hundreds of books for him, and Li Wenqiang himself figured out a way to sell them, and he earned how much they sold.

The reason for printing hundreds of copies is that the printing factory has a minimum number of copies to be printed. In this regard, Shi Gui also gave Li Wenqiang preferential terms, and a minimum of 300 copies should be printed.

Although there are concessions in all aspects, in the end, it was 10,000 yuan.

Li Wenqiang was headstrong when he patted his chest, and felt pain when he paid for it. He returned to the laboratory and kept sighing: "My wife said before that she bought a house, but I stopped and said to save some money before buying. Okay, don't think about it."

"The remaining ten thousand is not enough to buy a house?" Yang Rui wandered around in the laboratory. These days are an important time for running-in. Which method is used for experimentation, and what matters need attention in the laboratory, all need to understand each other. .

The reason why the graduate tutors or doctoral tutors in the school like their students is because they can reduce the running-in time and increase the degree of cooperation.

In the same experiment, students taught by different instructors may not be able to do it. If it is in a school, because the methods and methods of communication between the laboratories are still similar, the gap between different schools is large, especially some The native method may be okay when used at Nanjing University. It is probably choking to go to Fudan University. If you go to Nankai University, the teacher may directly curse: Did you do this experiment? Are the experimental materials so ruined? Who taught you to do this experiment? You call him!

Yang Rui needs off-the-shelf researchers, so he can’t be as picky as his school instructors, especially the few at the moment, from the world, from Dalian to Xiamen, and their methods of experimenting are different. Moreover, Li Wenqiang and others are all different. People in their 30s can only be familiar with each other and understand each other, and then let them learn other methods, it is basically impossible, even if it is a better method.

This kind of thing requires a lot of time for the researchers who don't know each other to run in on their own. This room is a breed with low EQ. Instead of waiting for them to find their father when they are upset, Yang Rui should show up directly.

In addition to showing the level of research, Yang Rui's main job is also chatting and solving problems.

Li Wenqiang is more proficient in experiments than Tu Xian. After a few days, he cooperated with Huang Mao fairly well. He added materials to the automatic amino acid analyzer in his hand and said: "We have repaid several thousand yuan in foreign debt, which is considered to be the first few The year’s bills have been settled, and some of the remaining money is reserved. It is not enough to buy a yard."

"How big is the yard not enough?"

"It's a small courtyard, it's not a courtyard. Only the two-bedroom houses are fully functional. There are no houses on the south side and half a fan on the west side. This kind of house costs nearly 10,000 yuan." Li Wenqiang said here and shook his head: "Beijing houses are really expensive. , Put us there, three thousand yuan to buy a large courtyard wall."

Zhang Xuetong is the oldest person in the entire laboratory. He smiled and said, "How can you compare to Beijing? The population alone is so much more."

"We don't have to live in Beijing. It's okay to be in front of the school, but there is no house." Li Wenqiang said, looking at Yang Rui, and said with a smile: "Boss, do we have a house for our laboratory?"

"If your salary is lowered to 150 yuan, there will be a house share." Yang Rui said sharply: "According to the rules of Peking University, those who have served for more than five years can be allocated houses, and dual employees will get extra points."

Several people laughed happily. Their current salary is more than 1,000 yuan. Even if the house in Beijing is more expensive, they can still afford it. It is only a matter of time.

Wang Xiaoyun even said with envy and hatred: "Lao Li, your book is about to be published. What do you care about the house? If I live in the house I can exchange for a book, I am willing."

Li Wenqiang grinned twice, and then continued to complain: "I need someone to do publishing. Xinhua Bookstore doesn't accept it. I don't know where to sell..."

"I can't sell it for me, I will help you to collect it, oh, when can I publish the book, boss!"

Yang Rui curled his lips: "You have to write a book first."

"Give it if you write it?"

"Lao Li is at his own expense. If you get a salary of 150 per month, I will pay you."

"Forget it, I'll figure it out by myself." Wang Xiaoyun lowered her head, but the idea of ​​publishing a book at her own expense suddenly surged in her heart.

In fact, not only him, but other people in the laboratory also have the intention to publish books.

The Chinese take "Liyan" very seriously. If it is a local factory or mine, it would take several days to show off with excitement to publish an article about tofu in the newspaper. The school is a little reserved ~www.NovelMTL.com~ But if anyone writes a book, it must be a big show.

Right now in 1984, apart from Yang Rui's laboratory, which was able to provide a salary of hundreds of thousands of yuan, ordinary research institutes couldn't afford to eat, and publishing books at their own expense was not popular at all, and people did not distinguish this.

Therefore, when a few people calculate that they can publish a book with only a few months' salary, they all feel itchy.

Compared with their previous salary of more than tens of hundreds of yuan, Yang Rui's salary was too much for them to spend. In addition to buying a house, their money can only be stored in the bank.

However, to publish a book, you must first write a book.

Moreover, after this book is the capital of ostentation, it is for people to see.

Thinking of this, several people moved unconsciously under their hands.

Just do it if you think about it. This is almost all Mavericks' traits.
