Rebirth of the God-level Xueba

Chapter 743: Comment pricing

"Yang Rui, this kind of thing should be done sooner rather than later." Dean Liu spoke in Yang Rui's ear, wishing to get into his head and directly manipulate him to agree.

Where can I look for such a good thing that benefits the country and the people and benefits myself.

Even Professor Cai, who has always been as stable as Mount Tai, was anxious for Yang Rui at this time.

He himself is already a member (academician) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and still has no chance to publish monographs abroad. Even if my colleagues who are also members of the Chinese Academy of Sciences publish monographs abroad, most of them are sent to foreign publishers, and then The letter exchange was finalized, how many sleepless nights were revised during the period, and how many nights were insomnia, I can’t tell.

Yang Rui's opportunity, or luck, is extremely rare in Professor Cai's view. Two American publishing houses directly sent people to China to discuss publishing. Such opportunities are really rare.

Professor Cai could not help but motioned to Yang Rui with his eyes.

Unfortunately, Professor Tsai’s acting skills are inversely proportional to his academic ability. His eyes are simply dumb, not only can’t speak, but he doesn’t even have the ability to express what I’m talking about.

Yang Rui neither listened to Dean Liu nor understood Professor Cai's expressions. He only said to the two foreigners, "You should have corresponding plans or documents. Can I see it?"

"Oh, as for sales planning, we do." Cecil of New York University Press hurriedly took out two pages. He brought these things every time he went out to explain the same things to different scholars.

Even scholars who have made commendable contributions in this field lacked coping in the first few encounters with publishing houses.

Generally speaking, Cecil can conquer most scholars with such two pages, but today's situation is a little different.

I saw Linden of Norton Press open the handbag, took out a finger-thick file from it, and handed it to Iwatani, saying: "Not only is there our evaluation of your "Genomics" here, there are also professors from other universities. We would like to ask you to take a look at the evaluation of the delivery."

"Oh?" Yang Rui was really interested, and first took what Linden had in his hands.

On the header of the bound document, there are names that are familiar and even famous—Joyce, Kelly, Lev Lewis, Moses Morey...

The same is the rise of the document, and the names of the institutions are even more famous: Harvard University, Johns Hopkins University, Yale University, University of California, Berkeley, University of California, San Francisco, University of California, San Diego, University of California, Davis, University of California Los Angeles, University of California, Irvine, University of California, Santa Barbara, University of California, Santa Cruz, University of California, Riverside...

Yang Rui turned page by page, and Dean Liu and the others behind him also stared wide-eyed.

Cecil's eyes are even more glaring. It's a vicious competition if you take it so seriously!

"This is a comment on Yang Rui's "Genomics"?" Dean Liu finally woke up. His English is slightly weak, and Yang Rui can read it quickly. It is not easy for him to see what is being written.

Linden nodded triumphantly and said: "Yes, in addition to sending Professor Leo's monographs by Mr. Yang Rui, we have also invited some scholars to evaluate Mr. Yang Rui's books. Generally speaking, these evaluations are mixed. , It’s very common to have more negative reviews than good reviews, so we normally wouldn’t show the reviews to the author to prevent bad things from happening...but this time the situation is very unusual and everyone’s reviews are common It is good or neutral. After our internal discussion, we decided to show it to Mr. Yang Rui..."

Linden said and laughed.

However, no one in China laughed.

Some people nodded in agreement, some people still read the comments in Yang Rui's hands with their heads out, and some people simply asked curiously: "Why do you show the author with mixed reviews, bad things happen? ."

"Because I see bad comments, the author will be unhappy." Linden was a little overwhelmed. Isn't this a matter of course? No author would be happy to see bad reviews. Why do you need someone to screen the letters sent to the publishing house? It's not that bad reviews will affect the enthusiasm of the authors. Some unlucky authors will be personally attacked or even threatened with death, which is naturally extremely painful.

It's a pity that what he took of course will not work in China.

Professor Wang Yong said: "Bad comments are also real comments. Although the author will be unhappy, you should also see the real comments."

Several Chinese nodded together.

Even the students in the outer circle nodded one after another. How can bad reviews be hurt? Everyone hasn't been scolded since childhood.

How can being scolded hurt the mood, being scolded is a part of life!

Lin Deng was stunned for a moment, and finally remembered that this is China. He smirked and said: "In short, the comments we received before were very uncommonly praised. Therefore, we specially compiled and printed it to make Mr. Yang Rui happy. Now...well, you won’t be unhappy to see bad reviews, at least you will be happy to see good reviews."

"Of course. I'm sure to be happy to see good reviews, and I'm not happy to see bad reviews." Yang Rui blinked at Linden.

Linden realized it instantly, laughed, and said: "If we have readers' praise in the future, we will also find a way to forward it to you."

"Just forward the good comments to me." Yang Rui said with a smile, turned one of the pages, and read it.

Lu Yueping and others leaned behind him quickly and read together.

Most of the post comments are not long and are mostly scribbled copies. However, the scribbled handwriting and the scribbled signature are particularly dazzling at this moment.

"Genomics" unifies the current genetic theories, and has a positive effect on the study of the genome and the use of genes. The methods of gene mapping and sequencing are thought-provoking. The emergence of multiple new methods will inevitably push the research of genetics to the new The peak of..."

"Analyzing the function of the genome using the entire genome as a unit is a completely new concept compared to the current genetic research. Yang Rui has completed the design of the entire system and created a new methodology... I believe that "Genomics" will become a success. The work..."

"The proposal of "Genomics" will greatly promote the development of genomics. It is foreseeable that in the future the use of genomics to research topics will greatly increase, although it cannot be predicted as the credit of genomics, but genomics The proposal is really fresh, and it can be predicted that it will expand the research foundation of genetics, and then expand the research foundation of biology... If this book is published, I would like to make it a fourth-year student of the Department of Biology at the University of Washington. Must-read textbooks."

Americans have always liked to exaggerate, whether it is praise or criticism.

Nevertheless, the comments on "Genomics" are still imaginative.

Professor Tsai even showed such an expression.

Yang Rui turned page after page, and it was still very good.

Especially when I see some familiar names, my mood is quite different.

Norton Press has been working at Education Press for a long time, so they can appropriately find scholars in related fields to comment on.

Many of these people were already big players in the industry by the time Yang Rui was in graduate school.

Yang Rui said in his heart: I put these comments away now, 30 years later, maybe I can work with the president of some association.

"Norton Press is very careful." Yang Rui couldn't help but praised.

"Thank you, Mr. Yang Rui." Linden said happily: "We are very hard to introduce Mr. Yang Rui's "Genomics" to the world. By the way, Professor Dalbeko also read your book and gave a very good evaluation. Okay, he said that he also has related research, and he will sort out the information and publish it later."

"That's great. I hope Professor Dalbecco can promote the development of genomics." Yang Rui is really happy. Building a doctrine is like building a city. At the beginning of the city, it must attract more people. The better, the higher the level of people attracted, the better.

Nobel Prize winners such as Professor Dalbeck~www.NovelMTL.com~ which doctrines he participates in discussions, or which research fields he goes deep into, will surely drive a large number of followers.

Of course, Nobel Prize winners also pay attention to vision. It is very dangerous to rush into an unfamiliar field. Dalbecco will say that relevant research is to be done because he has done similar work before, and it is not because of Yang Rui that he deviated from the track.

Nevertheless, it is very rare for Dalbecco to speak directly.

Cecil stood by, speechless, his preparation was so inadequate, and his imagination was so simple that he couldn't speak at all.

"I only have one requirement. Please keep the price of books as low as possible. If Norton can do it, we can cooperate happily." Yang Rui also leaned toward Norton Publishing without surprise.

Linden hesitated for a moment, and said: "Genomics is a brand new theory. We hope to configure more exquisite color pages. If we blindly lower the price of books, I am afraid that perfect results will not be obtained."

"How much do you plan to price?" Yang Rui asked directly.

Linden thought about it, and said, "I don't know the final price yet."

"Expected?"

"We think... between US$160 and US$200, maybe a more appropriate price."

"160 U.S. dollars..." The Chinese who were present all took a breath. Have never seen such an expensive book in China.
