my sister is a supermodel

"Hahaha, I understand, are you being urged to marry?"

Felix laughed.

"Yeah, I will never attend a wedding again, the pressure is too much"

Roca shook his head. He was not only forced to marry, but also a group of women denounced the scumbags loudly. He was almost forced to jump into the sea.

"Roca, you are 24 this year, you can also consider getting married"

"Stop! Don't talk about this anymore. Didn't you call me here to talk about books? Let's get started!"

Roca leaned on the sofa and said.

"Okay, let's talk about the sales of "Fifty Shades of Grey""

"Fifty Shades of Grey" was released on October 10 last year, and only 16 copies were sold in the first three months, which is an average result.

Generally speaking, the fate of a book can be seen from the results of the first three months of the new book.

A good book sells well in the first three months, and it will sell well in the future. If it hits the market in the first three months, it will be difficult to improve in the future.

"Fifty Shades of Grey" is different. In the past three months, the results were mediocre. After only half a year, the results of this book suddenly improved by leaps and bounds, singing all the way, and it was published in the New York Times in March, April, and July of this year. It is in the top five of the best-seller list, and in the top 3 in other months.

It was on shelves for nine months and sold more than 800 million copies.

"More than 800 million does not seem to be much. The "Harry Potter" series has sold more than 2 million copies, and "Twilight" has also sold more than 2000 million copies. There is also Mr. Nicholas Sparks, the godfather of pure love. , Anne Ness, the mother of vampires, they can easily be in the tens of millions, isn't 800 million more?"

Roca sipped his tea and said slowly, completely ignoring Felix's white eyes that almost rolled up to the sky.

"800 million is not much? Hehe~"

Felix didn't want to talk to him very much, but facing the author Ben's father, he couldn't talk to him.

"Hey, Roca, can you stop comparing yourself to them? You are just a newcomer, and your first book sold 800 million copies in less than a year. Do you know what this is? It's a miracle!"

Felix said excitedly, "Since the 20th century, there have been 10,000+ writers in the United States. It can be seen from the New York Times bestseller list that no less than 30 of them can sell tens of millions of copies per year. You're one of 30, aren't you excited at all? Surely you're not proud? Don't you want to cheer for this achievement?"

Roca shook his head, "No, when I sell [-] million copies, I might smile."

“…”

Felix's expression froze, as if pigeon droppings had landed on the corner of his mouth.

"Roca, your heart is too big."

Felix said helplessly.

"That's why people call me Mr.Big"

Rocca twitched the corner of his mouth, put down his teacup and said, "Felix, if you have something to say, don't preach it here."

"Well, my idea is very simple, can you stand up..."

"cannot!"

Before he could finish speaking, Roca refused. He was about to be called a scumbag by someone pointing at his nose. If he told the media that this book was written by him, he would not only be a scumbag, but also be called a scumbag. Label it a pervert, let alone this book is a female protagonist.

"Felix, we signed the contract before, so don't mention it again"

"Hey, well, what I want to say is that if you dare to stand up, I am sure that the sales of this book will double within the year, that is 1600 million, or even 2000 million copies, Roca, 2000 million copies , and only "Harry Potter" can sell this result, you can become a world-class writer in one fell swoop, don't you feel excited?"

Felix stared at him intently, not about to give up yet.

"If you say one more word, Kate's new book will not cooperate with you"

"OKOK, I won't say it, I promise I won't say it"

Felix waved his hand. He knew the weight of Roca's words in Kate's heart. If Roca opened his mouth, Kate would definitely agree. He didn't want to pick sesame seeds and lose watermelon.

"Roca, you just mentioned Kate's new book, is Kate writing a new book?"

Felix asked excitedly.

In April, the fourth part of "Twilight" "Breaking Dawn" just hit the shelves, and only three months later, another new book came out. Kate's creative efficiency is too high.

"Yes, Emily read the manuscript last time and thought it was very good. This time Kate came over and brought the manuscript with her."

The new book is the "Before I Met You" that turned Roca into a real scumbag. After a year of pressing on the computer, it should be published. After publishing this book, he plans to release a new book next year.

"Here's the manuscript? That's great, I'll have to read it later"

Felix felt that he should persuade him again just now, since he brought them with him anyway, he couldn't take them back.

"Roca, Kate has started writing a new book, what about the "Twilight" series, didn't you say there are six books?

At present, I think it is best to focus on "Twilight", because the Twilight series has been successful.

As long as it doesn’t end, you can continue to make money. It’s too risky to open a new book. I hope you can persuade Kate when I have time.”

Felix graciously poured him a cup of tea.

Rocca shook his head, "No need, all six books have been written, Kate is free to write a new book."

"It's all over? Kate is too good"

Felix praised heartily.

"Of course!"

Roca smiled, picked up the teacup and drank it down, shaking his head helplessly, this pot of tea has been brewed several times, and now there is no tea smell at all.

"Felix, is there anything else, I'll leave if there's nothing else"

Rocca got up and said.

"Yes, there is one more thing! It is about the film and television copyright of the "Twilight Saga" series."

Felix produced several folders.

"Roca, you are an actor, you should know that adapting it into a movie can greatly increase the popularity of the film and the sales of real and fake ones.

The "Twilight Saga" series has been on the shelves for three years, and the first four have bought more than 2000 million copies, with brilliant results.

If it can be remade into a film and TV series, the sales will double, and now there are many film companies who want to win the film copyright. This is the initial condition proposed by several companies, you can take a look."

"All right!"

Roca opened several documents and contracts and looked at them. Among them were seven film and television companies including Universal, Summit, New Line, Lionsgate, and Fox.
