This will likely boost the media ratings of Wang Jinkang's novels in China in the future.
To put it bluntly, Lin Yifeng used this contract to indirectly help the newspaper open up a wider market.
During his week in Shanyang City, Lin Yifeng hadn't had a moment's rest at all.
Basically, apart from Youzhou, newspapers from most surrounding provinces tried to obtain exclusive publishing rights.
The most expensive areas are undoubtedly Kyoto.
Kyoto Animation offered a hefty price of ten million yen, aiming to secure the exclusive rights to both novels in a single transaction.
The price eventually rose to 15 million, which is equivalent to an average price of about 7.5 million for both novels.
If Wang Jinkang knew how valuable his novel was, he would probably be dumbfounded.
However, as instructed by Lin Yifeng beforehand, Liu Shengxing did not make any concessions on the price and ultimately finalized the same contract as Youzhou Province.
Five newspapers got involved, and the deposit alone amounted to five million.
When the five companies returned with their manuscripts, Liu Shengxing looked at the gleaming money in his savings account and couldn't help but gasp.
"Xiao Lin."
"This time we might be in big trouble."
"Articles from newspapers in five provinces, wow, the revenue!"
Liu Shengxing started to struggle with the calculations on his fingers.
Seeing Liu Shengxing's flustered appearance, Lin Yifeng smiled calmly.
"This is nothing."
"Wait two months and see, the price will be different again."
Lin Yifeng smiled.
Aside from Kyoto, the prices they negotiated with these provinces were based on a minimum of 500,000 yen per month, which would bring in 2 million yen per month for all four provinces combined.
After taxes, there will still be about 1.8 million left.
Two copies of each book will be published every month. The royalties alone will bring Wang Jinkang an income of nearly 80,000 yuan per month.
The market in Kyoto is much larger, with a guaranteed profit of one million yen. After taxes and profit sharing, plus the local market in Makino City.
Wang Jinkang and Lin Yifeng earn at least 130,000 yuan a month in royalties.
While the 130,000 yuan in royalties meant little to Lin Yifeng, it was a huge sum for Wang Jinkang.
He might earn about the same amount as an engineer in a year, but after he handed over the copyright to Lin Yifeng and his team, he could earn a year's worth of money in a month.
On Lin Yifeng's side, the newspaper earns an extra three million yuan each month, which is far better than the five or six hundred thousand yuan the newspaper currently earns each month.
As the newspaper expands in the future, it may bring Lin Yifeng nearly five million in revenue each month.
Lin Yifeng dreamed that one day the newspaper would grow into a major company.
I never expected that "one day" would come so suddenly.
As for Liu Shengxing, his monthly salary has also reached 30,000 yuan because of this cooperation, making him the person with the highest monthly income under Lin Yifeng's control.
These days, a monthly income of one thousand is considered a very good job.
People who earn over 10,000 yuan a month are extremely rare; they are all seasoned veterans who have been working in the industry for over twenty years.
When Liu Shengxing learned that he earned over 30,000 yuan a month plus five social insurances and one housing fund, he was almost completely stunned. He felt that happiness had come too suddenly.
Of course, Lin Yifeng left all these follow-up matters to Liu Shengxing to handle.
Next, all Liu Shengxing needs to do is send six copies of the manuscript each month, five of which will be sent to these places.
After finishing all his work, Lin Yifeng returned to Stone Village to rest for two or three days.
I took the students out for a rare treat and had them have some fun, including a physical education class.
After resting for a while, he returned to Makino City.
In Lin Yifeng's office in Makino City, Lin Yifeng leaned back on the sofa, watching the local Makino City television station in front of him.
During his absence, Makino City TV station also interviewed Pang Donglai.
No one knows where the news came from, but everyone in Makino City knows that Pang Donglai is going to open a branch.
Donglai also confirmed this on television.
This news became an instant sensation throughout Zhongzhou Province.
Upon hearing that the emerging supermarket in Makino City was going to expand, various municipal governments extended olive branches to Donglai, including Donglai's hometown, Weidu.
At this moment, Donglai, who had been busy all day, pushed open the office door.
"Hey, Donglai, why are you so reserved on TV? What are you afraid of?"
"Waistboard stopping point!"
"You're a big boss now."
Looking at Lin Yifeng on the sofa, Donglai could only complain with a wry smile.
"Brother Feng, please stop making fun of me."
"I feel you should really let Xiao Guo handle this."
"I'm really bad at dealing with TV stations."
Donglai was also suffering in his heart.
Lin Yifeng, the biggest boss, rarely shows his face, so the TV station staff can't catch him at all; they can only look for him, the person in charge of Pang Donglai.
Starting with Makino City TV, local TV stations would come to interview us every few days.
Just dealing with the TV station was already exhausting for Donglai. In the process, he also had to deal with other government leaders and explain to them that Pang Donglai's expansion was still under consideration.
Donglai was especially at a loss when facing his fellow villager Wei Du.
As a fellow townsman, he really wanted to open a Pang Donglai restaurant in Weidu, but whether or not he could open the store was not something he could decide on his own; he needed Lin Yifeng's approval.
Without Lin Yifeng's approval, he dared not overstep his authority by choosing a location to open a shop.
