"Mr. Ram, I want you to contact these writers and make them sign their next novels with us and also get me their draft for their next novel,"I said while giving him a sheet of paper on which 4 writer names were printed.
One month has passed since buying this company.
Our company has contracted to publish the novel "Airport" by Arthur Hailey with $15000 advance payment+11% for each book and 70000 for film and tv rights of the book. According to the system, the book sold worldwide will be around 10 million.
"The Love Machine" by Jacqueline Susann with $12000 advance payment+9.8% for each book and 65000 for film and tv rights of the book. In the future Columbia film studio bought the film rights for a whopping $1.5 million. According to the system, the book sold worldwide will be around 5 million.
NOTE: The above two book authors have already published books before so their pay is high.
, "The Andromeda Strain by Michael Crichton" with $5000 advance payment+5.6% for each book and 34000 for film and tv rights of the book. And for the next 10 years, the first priority of his every next book was given to us. According to the system, the book sold in the United state will be more than 4 million.
I have selected 9 Books that are scheduled to be released in the next 6 Months.
2 weeks past the company published "The Andromeda Strain by Michael Crichton" and it became the best-selling book of the week. I already knew the success of the book so the company was ready to print more books. The company already sold 50000 books within 2 weeks and many retailers were asking for more books. The company had already printed around 100000 books before distributing them. The selling price of books before taxes is $6.3.The retailer who sells the book typically gets a 50% discount, which means that $3.15 of that $6.3 goes to the Book shop.
Manufacturing the book, printing, and binding it, probably cost about $1 change according to pages of the book.
That leaves $2.15
The author's share is 5.6% of the cover price — that's $0.35. That leaves the publisher with $1.80.
The company earns around $1.8 per book. We have already earned $90,000.
Next month we will be publishing "Airport" by Arthur Hailey and after that "The Love Machine" by Jacqueline Susann. We will be publishing the extra book that I selected back then and giving them to Harrison.
If these were sold similar to the previous world number then the total profit earned by the company in the next two years will be $35,000,000 only by these 3 books.
Today the company organized a party for the success of the book.
Famous writers, retailers, Models, and company staff were available at the party.
Many rival company members also try to poach Michael Crichton, the real protagonist of the party, to work for their company.
I also meet with different people and exchange greetings.
"Congratulations on the success of the book." A white man with thick glasses said with a polite smile.
"Thank you for the greeting," I said while shaking hands.
"My name is Mario Puzo. I am an author."
'Mario Puzo, I had heard this name.'
'System give me details about this person.'I ask system
There were details about the person but one thing that stood out from his profile as he was the author of the famous book
'The Godfather.'
