179 Contract publishing house, unchanged for 30 years(2/2)

He is very sure that under his leadership, or in other words, under his own system plug-in, his publishing house will prosper and become a terrifying cash cow.

After all, the business scope of his publishing house is very wide. It is a comprehensive publishing house that can not only publish books and magazines, but also audio and video products.

In other words, Hongguang Publishing House can not only publish books and novels, but also publish magazines, newspapers, and even audio and video products.

To put it bluntly, today’s publishing house is a distribution platform.

As long as you have the name of a publishing house, you can legitimately be linked to the post office and Xinhua Bookstore, the largest publication distribution organizations in the country at this time.

In other words, without the cover of a publishing house, you can also print books for sale privately, or record audio-visual products for sale privately.

However, this kind of private behavior without official certification is only a minor problem when it is inspected by relevant departments. The biggest problem is that it cannot quickly distribute goods and expand its influence.

Because you don't have publishing qualifications, you can't get distribution channels from the post office and Xinhua Bookstore, and you can't quickly send your products to sell across the country. You can only do it in your local city.

Only by going to the post office and Xinhua Bookstore can you distribute it nationwide and win the favor of the national market.

Moreover, if you have a formal publication number, no one will dare to check the products you publish, and you will naturally earn more profits.

Another point is that because the publishing house is an official unit, it can also pave its own way in China at this time.

For example, if a publishing house wants to publish a book at this time, in addition to cooperating with the post office and Xinhua Bookstore, it can ask them to help distribute the book.

You can also establish a new distribution channel by yourself, send people to various cities to establish branches and warehouses, and then hire people locally to distribute books to various small booksellers.

This means that you can establish a separate distribution channel belonging to the publishing house, similar to the express delivery model.

Because you are a regular publishing house, you will not encounter too many difficulties when you send it to various places to establish distribution channels, which means that you can establish a transportation network in advance.

Under this model, you don't have to share the profits with the post office and Xinhua Bookstore. You can earn more profits, and of course the expenses will be higher. Generally speaking, it is not as cost-effective as cooperating with the post office and Xinhua Bookstore.

But in Cao Zhiqiang's eyes, this is another way to make money.

What is this? This means that you can establish a distribution channel alone!

Once there are branches in every city, you can easily switch to other careers in the future.

Moreover, with branches, you can also establish franchised small bookstore chains in various places, start a bookstore chain, and compete with Xinhua Bookstore.

Bookstores now not only sell books, but also newspapers, audio and video products, soda, melon seeds and snacks.

what is this?

This is a national chain supermarket group!

It can be said that once Cao Zhiqiang has a publishing house that he has the final say on, he will have opened a map of the country. The markets across the country will no longer be a natural barrier for him, and there will not be too much he can do.

Therefore, Cao Zhiqiang insisted on paying a fixed fee, and the term was set for a very long time.

In the end, due to the bargaining between Cao Zhiqiang and Factory Director Li, the final contract agreement was signed.

According to that contracting agreement, Hongguang Publishing House was contracted and operated by Cao Zhiqiang himself, and the contracting rights were for thirty years, which was similar to the land contracting period.

Within thirty years, Cao Zhiqiang had the final say on all operating activities of Hongguang Publishing House, and all expenses were contracted by Cao Zhiqiang.

During this period, Hongguang Machinery Factory is not allowed to interfere in the specific operation and personnel management of the publishing house at will. At most, it has the right to make suggestions.

In other words, within thirty years, Cao Zhiqiang alone has the final say over the financial, personnel, and administrative powers of Hongguang Machinery Factory.

Of course, Cao Zhiqiang has the final say, and this is all relative.

Hongguang Machinery Factory has the right to reject some publications that clearly violate regulations.

President Zhou Huaien exists mainly to play a review role.

During the thirty-year contract period, Hongguang Publishing House had to pay a fixed management fee of 5,000 yuan to Hongguang Machinery Factory every year.

Well, originally Director Li only wanted a thousand yuan for this fixed management fee.

Still, Cao Zhiqiang thought it was too outrageous and was afraid that it would be difficult to silence everyone, so he forced himself to increase it to 5,000 yuan a year.

Five thousand yuan is already a large amount of money in this era.

A publishing house pays a fixed amount of 5,000 to the contractor every year. At this time, I believe no one can say anything, and many people may even want to see Cao Zhiqiang's joke.

Of course, after a year, I believe many people will regret it, because by then, five thousand yuan will really be a waste.

Also, Cao Zhiqiang requested a thirty-year deadline. Originally, Director Li only wanted a one-year deadline.

Of course, Director Li's one-year deadline was a good intention, because he was afraid that Cao Zhiqiang would not be able to withstand it, and the one-year deadline would allow him to stop the loss in time, and then the contract could be changed again.

But how could Cao Zhiqiang give up this good opportunity? It would take thirty years.

Originally, Cao Zhiqiang was able to do it for fifty years, but when he thought it was too much and couldn't justify it, he changed it to thirty years.

Thirty years is enough.

Thirty years later, it will be 2013. The publishing industry has probably made corrections long ago, and it is unlikely that it will still be as chaotic as it is now.

When the time comes, his arms will not be able to twist his thighs, and his contract will not be able to stop the general trend. Sooner or later, it will have to be rectified.

However, with this contract, even if there is a major overhaul in the publishing industry in the future, he will be able to take advantage of it, and the benefits will be many.

Because the contract he signed with Hongguang Machinery Factory was a contract between him and a state-owned enterprise, and the subject of the contract was Hongguang Machinery Factory, not the director himself, so there was no need to worry about the death of the people and the government.

There are also some supplementary clauses that may seem inconspicuous, but are very important in Cao Zhiqiang’s opinion.

For example, if Hongguang Machinery Factory goes bankrupt due to poor management, it will automatically belong to the Metallurgical Department, the parent unit of the machine factory.

If Hongguang Machinery Factory is annexed or merged with other units for rectification, and the corporate legal person changes, then the ownership of Hongguang Publishing House will automatically belong to the new unit.

But no matter who owns the Hongguang Publishing House at that time, the thirty-year contract will remain unchanged.

In order to ensure the authority of this contract, at Cao Zhiqiang's strong request, the contract was notarized at a notary office. The contract was also backed up and archived. It has strong legal effect and is difficult for ordinary people to overturn.

Everything is to prepare for a rainy day!

Because Cao Zhiqiang knows that if the publishing house's operating conditions are average or even losing money, no one will be jealous.

But if Hongguang Publishing House makes a lot of money every day, someone will definitely be jealous, and someone will definitely want to cause trouble.

At that time, this contract will be the most advantageous weapon.

As for the two uncles, Secretary Dong and Factory Director Li...

These people are powerful now and can indeed protect Cao Zhiqiang very well, but they are all too old.

In thirty years' time, even if they are still alive, they will have retired long ago and may not still have the power to protect Cao Zhiqiang.

Therefore, Cao Zhiqiang must provide himself with more insurance from the beginning.

It would be better to waste time and do useless work than to be blinded when something really happens.

"That's just the way it is, and that's the situation!"

After explaining the general situation of Hongguang Publishing House, Cao Zhiqiang took a drink of water first, and then continued to Yu Deli who was stunned:

"So, not only have I obtained a publishing license, I have also signed a contract with our factory and officially contracted the Hongguang Publishing House.

Although the ownership of this publishing house is not owned by me personally, for the next thirty years, I alone will have the final say over this publishing house.

So, I already have the ship, when will the crew you mentioned be in place?"

Just as Yu Deli was about to speak, Cao Zhiqiang suddenly interrupted: "By the way, I almost forgot, this is also a formal state-owned publishing house. Because it is a subsidiary of a state-owned enterprise, it also has a formal establishment.

Although there are not many, there are currently only three agency establishments and five enterprise establishments, but they do have formal establishments.

Moreover, I have a good relationship with the leader. If our efficiency is good in the future, I can spend more money and continue to apply for establishment with the boss.

So, you don’t have to worry about compilation issues.”

Yu Deli nodded with a smile on his face: "If that's the case with you, then of course there will be no problem with me."

After a pause, Yu Deli said: "Don't worry, what we need most these days is ships, not people!

You already have a boat, but are you worried that you won’t be able to recruit people?

Give me three days and I promise to bring him to you!"

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly and raised the red wine glass in front of him: "Then I wish us..."

Just as he said this, a middle-aged man suddenly stood up from the table next to him. Cao Zhiqiang was startled and he looked over subconsciously.

Then Cao Zhiqiang discovered that after the man stood up, he kept waving at the door.
