Rumei nodded heavily, "Yes, you can get the money in advance as long as you publish and print it for me."
Editor Du stopped talking.
Rumei knew that he was settling accounts, so she didn't rush him and just waited.
Traditional book publishing and printing account for 40% of the cost; the publishing house gives a 60 to 30% discount to the sellers, making a gross profit of about 20%.
For example, if a book is priced at ten yuan, four yuan is the cost, and six yuan is sold to the seller.
The publishing house and the printing house make a total of two yuan.
The seller bought the book for six yuan.
If he sold it at the list price of ten yuan, he would make four yuan.
If you sell it for 8 yuan at a 20% discount, you can still make 2 yuan in gross profit.
This is why many modern bookstores are willing to offer discounts.
Large bookstores often have 20% off discounts due to high store rent, labor, water and electricity expenses, which are not as large as small bookstores.
Many small bookstores have small storefronts and low rents; the clerks are the bosses and labor costs are low.
Therefore, they dare to sell at low prices.
Many genuine books are discounted up to 30% off.
If it is a pirated book, the discount is even more severe, and it is often sold at a 30% off or 20% off the list price.
There are no copyright fees, book number fees, etc., and the profits are quite large.
Although Rumei cannot clearly know the inside story of these things, she does understand the matter.
In this era, there are almost no counterfeiters, so there are almost no pirated books.
Editor-in-Chief Du thought for a while and said: "In our publishing industry, our superiors give us tasks.
Of course, our publishing house is small and we don't have many tasks."
Rumei remained calm.
There are not many tasks, so naturally the wages, bonuses, and benefits are also small.
To be honest, who wants to earn just a few dead wages?
There are too many stalls and people selling things on the streets outside, and there is not enough money in their pockets to think about.
It would be strange if he didn't move when he sent money to his door like this.
Sure enough, Editor-in-Chief Du said: "Our tasks are not full, and we don't have any benefits during the holidays.
I am a leader and I am also a person who receives a dead salary.
I have no place to scratch my head if I want to make some money."
"There are times when I take on jobs in private, but they are very rare.
I will think about it again.
If it can be done, I will give you a reply.
If it can't be done, don't complain.
You can't do it with public affairs either.
You know, it’s not that easy.”
Rumei breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Our public units are all like this.
It doesn't matter what one person says.
You are telling the truth.
However, everything depends on people.
As long as both parties want to cooperate, nothing can't be done."
"As for the other things, you can see that I am cooperating with you sincerely.
I have encountered a lot of problems, and I won't hide it from you.
I found you out of helplessness, because the volume of publications is huge, and I am worried that small publishing houses will suffer.
No less.”
"If you are willing to cooperate with me, do everything you need to do in the early stage, and prepare enough materials for the printing factory.
Once the machine is turned on, it may be non-stop day and night.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Not much to say about this set of books, the first batch will be printed first Ten thousand sets will be added later.”
This is an era hungry for knowledge.
Publishing houses in the 1970s and 1980s could sell any book they published.
Because we will soon enter the 1980s when everyone is reading.
In the 21st century, science and technology books are very unpopular, but they were very popular in the 1970s and 1980s.
It doesn't matter if it's an intellectual or technical book, it's the same.
Even books like electricians' manuals and internal medicine manuals were printed in astonishing numbers.
Because, in the 1970s and 1980s, there was a huge shortage of science and technology books on the market.
The "Self-study Series of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry" in Rumei's hand, not to mention the queues in the middle of the night, scalpers selling, and handwritten books.
