Chapter 336
Chapter 336 Signed the Swedish copyright of Jane Eyr
The people at the Swedish Translation Publishing House were almost mad at these sudden calls, so they told the situation to Latis who was thinking.
“Dear Mr. Latis, what the **** is going on today, a large group of people called to ask our publishing house if we have Kevin’s “Jane Eyre”, and they all said they would order it.”
“What? Is there such a thing? Who are these people calling for consultation?” Latis asked in surprise.
“Some of them are Kevin’s readers, but most of them are people from various bookstores in Sweden. They said that many customers have recently visited their bookstores to inquire about this book.”
“Really? Everything you said is true?” Latis’ eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked quickly what happened.
“Of course, respectable Mr. Latis, we dare not lie. Oh, the phone is fragrant again, you can try again.”
“Okay, let me pick it up, let me pick it up.”
So Latis excitedly ran to the work phone, and said happily: “Hi, hello, this is Translation Sweden Publishing House, what can I do for you?”
“I’m glad to hear your voice. Does your publishing house have “Jane Eyre” by British writer Kevin? We are from the Swedish Bread Bookstore. Too many customers have consulted this book these days, so I tried Just call and ask.”
“Don’t worry, this work will be released sooner or later. Please be patient and wait for the time.” Latis promised.
After hearing this call, Latis already knew what to do.
“Really? That’s great. I’ll call you again in a few days. The Swedish Bread Bookstore will definitely buy a lot of goods.”
“Thank you for your support, friend. Bye bye”
After Latis put the phone down, he was about to do something. But as soon as he turned around, the phone rang again.
“Hello, is it a translation publishing house? We want to buy “Jane Eyre” by British writer Kevin…”
“We are from the Victoria, Hong Kong and Macau Bookstore. We want to purchase “Jane Eyre” by the British writer Kevin, do you have it?”
“Does your publishing house plan to publish “Jane Eyre” written by Kevin? Yes, I want to buy it.”
“Hello, I saw the news that Kevin’s “Collection of All Beings” was published by your translation publishing house. So. I want to ask if you are preparing to publish “Jane Eyre”? If so, please tell me. With a sigh, our bookstore wants a large amount of stock. Thank you.”
Latis stood there and took a few more calls in a row, all of which were about buying Kevin’s “Jane Eyre”. At this moment, he already knows what he should do?
then. He handed over the contents of the call to his colleague, and then quickly dialed the phone numbers of Kevin and Louis, and invited them to the translation publishing house one by one.
Facts have proved that he was correct to arrange Kevin and others to stay at the Guitar Hotel, because it is not very far from the Guitar Hotel. Kevin and Louis can also arrive in a short time after receiving a call.
Kevin, Louis and others also knew that the other party asked themselves to come over again, it must be for “Jane Eyre”. So after sitting down, Kevin asked directly: “Mr. Latis, how about it. Have you considered it clearly?”
“Yes, everyone, I think our translation publishing house is willing to sign up all the Swedish copyrights of “Jane Eyre” for a price of £3 million.”
Yes, Latis had already made this decision in his heart after answering those calls. What does he worry about for a work that has been asked by so many people. Besides, he has been following the boss for many years, making a decision by himself first, and then reporting to the other party. He is also confident that he can convince his boss.
“Oh. Mr. Latis thought about it so quickly?” Louis asked curiously.
When Louis heard that the other party agreed to Kevin’s request, he couldn’t help being happy for Kevin. After all, it is 3 million pounds, not a small sum. It’s a pity that “Jane Eyre” was not published by their Royal Poetry Press, otherwise they would get a share.
“Of course! You know “Jane Eyre” is an excellent novel. I think its literary charm drove me to make a decision quickly. This is incredible.” Latis said with a smile.
Now that the other party has agreed to his request, Kevin naturally has no other opinions. Therefore, he verbally agreed. It’s just that this work was originally signed with the London Literary Press, so even after Kevin signed it, he had to take it back and sign it to someone at the London Literary Press to sign it officially. However, with Kevin’s signature. Latis also put down a hundred hearts.
“Dear Mr. Latis, thank you very much for your importance on “Jane Eyre”. I think this cooperation will be a very pleasant journey again. I am honored for this.” Kevin signed the contract. After writing, he stretched out his hand and shook his hand.
“Haha. Kevin, you are a writer I have never seen in my life, your words and actions, your self-confidence, and your articles, I have never seen a person who can have so many. Knowing you. I’m so happy. “Latis looked at Kevin’s signature with a satisfied smile on his face.
Latis knows that the price of £3 million is naturally a bit high, but according to the current popularity, as long as a little promotion and publicity are required, the development of various channels will not be afraid of losing money at all, and it will also allow them to publish Mingzhuang Sweden I think the boss will agree with his point of view when he comes back. Therefore, Latis at this time was happy for his decisive decision.
Louis saw the two satisfied smiles on the side, and he couldn’t help feeling infinitely in his heart. As an editor, he deeply knew that perhaps it would be too rare to publish such an excellent work. Kevin has opened his own cultural company, and other publishing houses, including his own Royal Poetry Publishing House, will have no chance to publish Kevin’s works in the future.
And without Kevin’s work, which author can write a book that can achieve such an achievement?
After the Swedish copyright of “Jane Eyre” was finalized, Kevin, Louis and others began preparations for returning to the UK. Latis also came at this time to express his enthusiasm and sent everyone to the airport.
Before getting on the plane, Kevin also used his mobile phone to log on to Twitter, and then made a farewell speech.
Kevin wrote on Twitter: After being here for a few days, I have gradually fallen in love with the air here, the mountains and rivers here, the flowers and plants here, and my dear readers. I think this is the most charming place I have ever been, and I will miss everything here. It’s just that I’m going to say goodbye for a while, goodbye—Sweden and you. (To be continued.)
