Chapter 830
after a while, Zheng Yujie talked about business with Yang Guo.
Only Yang Guo, a short-sighted guy, was ignorant. He didn't notice the potential opportunities behind teacher Mo Yan's award.
"If we immediately launch teacher Mo Yan's book on Amazon International Library, it will definitely be very popular!" Zheng Yujie was so angry with Yang Guo that she simply didn't show off and said directly to Yang Guo, "it's a rare opportunity! If we don't seize it, it will be wasted!"
"Nobel prizes have attracted much attention all over the world, and look at the winners of Nobel prizes every year. Are their books booming in those months, and global sales have soared? Even in a few years, as long as people think of the Nobel Prize, they will continue to buy their books!" Zheng Yujie said.
"I see!" Yang Guo said, "you want us to use teacher Mo Yan's book to make our publishing house famous, right?" Yang Guo is not stupid. After Zheng Yujie ordered him, he immediately figured out the relationship between them.
You know, the Nobel Prize is a golden sign. Anyone who hears of Mo Yan's award, hasn't read his book, or hasn't known him will want to search and have a look. As long as his books are on the market, there will never be a lack of attention.
Zheng Yujie never thought about how much money she would make from teacher Mo Yan. When she signed the contract with him, she indicated how much he would increase his share if he won the prize. Excluding the channel fee, teacher Mo Yan would get more than half of the income.
Of course, as long as the base is large enough, publishers can still make money, but more importantly, they can earn enough attention in this!
Suppose that a billion readers from different countries in the world can learn about teacher Mo Yan's books through the Amazon platform, and then one twentieth, that is, 50 million people, notice the publishers who publish these books, and then follow them, and finally five million people become their first followers, then Yang Guo and they will succeed!
You know, through the five most popular fantasy novels translated by Yang Guo himself some time ago, he can feel that these online novels actually have a lot of appeal to Western readers!
Although they have no obvious advantages over Western bestsellers, these novels are better than novel ideas and interesting plots. For the more modern life and more fragmented reading in the west, they are simply a cool and delicious sundae in summer.
However, after Yang Guo submitted the manuscript before, Pang Yue was not very confident, because she knew that Amazon International Library was a mixed place. The huge library gave their users too many and too dazzling choices, and their newly established publishing house was easily submerged in the vast sea of books.
No matter how good a book is, it can only end up dead in silence if it is not found. Don't think that gold will shine. Now few people are willing to sift golden gold grain by grain!
They are trying to continue to prepare, run in the newly established team, and then patiently wait for the opportunity, or think of a marketing plan that can make a reputation.
As a result, the surprise really came! And come very fast!
However, at this time, Zheng Yujie was still in Dongxin publishing house in the distant capital. At this time, Pang Yue has just fully grasped the overall situation of the newly established publishing house. The old employees and new employees are running in. Even, she needs to recruit and recruit people everywhere.
"It doesn't matter! Even if we rush to play, we have to work overtime to seize this opportunity!" Zheng Yujie was ambitious and said in high spirits, "I just called aunt Pang, and she is now taking action!"
Although the publishing house has bought the Translation copyright of hundreds of thousands of online novels, in fact, Yang Guo is the only reliable translator at present. However, the good news is that in the past six months, Yang Guo has accumulated ten language translations of five books, including Sandalwood Punishment, fatigue of life and death, etc. -- his original intention is to improve the understanding of these foreign languages through translation.
The reason why I speak ten languages is that teacher Mo Yan has long sold the Translation copyright of English, and Sanskrit is not suitable for publishing - there are not many people who can understand Sanskrit now! Of course, like the book of sandalwood punishment, its French copyright and Swedish copyright were also sold, so Yang Guo only provided about 40 translations in total.
Not many! This data is put in front of others, which can be said to be the translation volume that the author can't do in ten years without eating or drinking!
The reason why Yang Guo is extremely efficient is that he has now reached a perfect level of mastery of the thirteen languages. Whether it is Chinese translation into other foreign languages or other foreign languages translation into other foreign languages, Yang Guo can still come at his fingertips.
When translating a book for the first time, he basically had a comprehensive understanding of the whole book. Among the later nine translations in different languages, Yang Guo was a bit like copying and pasting, which was as easy as drinking water and eating.
Of course, the number of words is also a very important factor. Although there are so many books, the total number of words is less than 2 million words. Compared with the five online novels translated by Yang Guo, there are more than 1.4 million words in the least one book, and doupo is steadily more than 5 million words!
However, Yang Guo felt that translating online novels was so easy that he could almost code while reading, just like doing simultaneous interpreting. It's not that online novels are brain wrecking books without difficulty, but online novels are basically a few routines. Unlike the tradition, we should consider the story background for a while, and whether the author plays word games for a while.
Yang Guo, an online novel based on the story, thinks he can finish one book a week, which can be coded out only after spending more than two hours every night!
It goes a little far. Zheng Yujie told Yang Guo that the publishing house is doing two things. One is to proofread, typeset and artwork the translations of Mo Yan's novels that Yang Guo has submitted, so as to achieve the best publishing effect. The other is that Pang Yue personally led the team and flew to the United States tonight to negotiate with Amazon with the most elite marketing team of the publishing house, striving to obtain the largest marketing resources.
What does YangGuo need to do?
He doesn't need to worry about business matters. Yang Guo just needs to spend more time translating all the six novels with English copyright in the Translation copyright provided by Mo Yan to them, so as to play a major role in the second wave of marketing war!
Speed is the key to war! The Nobel Prize has just been announced, and Yang Guo feels that the world is starting to go crazy again!
