Chapter 86 Li Han's Primary School Teacher

Two days later, Li Han had typed out a total of 1,000 brain teasers on a computer and copied them to a USB flash drive.

Today is the day I made an appointment with Xia Yang to meet and discuss in detail.

At 9:30 in the morning, Li Han rode a motorcycle to a teahouse in the county town and opened a private room.

The agreed time was 10 a.m., and Li Han was waiting for Xia Yang in the private room.

Xia Yang said on the phone that he had arrived in the county seat and was now rushing to the teahouse.



Xia Yang drove here by himself, and he was very much looking forward to meeting Li Han.

In the past two days, he carefully analyzed the market prospects of a brain-teaser. The more he analyzed, the more he felt that the market was bigger.

As long as word spreads, I'm afraid the vast majority of parents will choose to buy it.

After all, no parent would want to train their children to think outside the box.

Xia Yang couldn't wait any longer.



Ten minutes later, Li Han saw Xia Yang, who was in his early 30s, young and capable.

"Hello, Mr. Li Han!"

"Hello, Mr. Xia!"

After the two exchanged a few words, Li Han handed the USB disk to Xia Yang and said, "Mr. Xia, they are all in there."

Xia Yang took it and said, "Okay, thank you! I'm very sorry, I'll take a look first."

Li Han said: "Mr. Xia, please!"

Xia Yang apologized again, then took out the laptop he brought, inserted the USB flash drive and found "Brain Teasers".

Click to open!

You don't need to look at each question carefully, you just need to browse it briefly.

The more Xia Yang watched, the more delighted he became, and the more he watched, the more impressed he became. In just two days, Li Han was able to come up with so many strange, interesting, and interesting questions and answers.

Some questions and answers are even shocking!

Li Han's mind is really admirable.

No wonder he is so famous in many fields at such a young age.

After browsing it roughly, Xia Yang said excitedly: "Mr. Li Han, there is no problem, there is no problem at all. Moreover, it is better than I imagined."

Li Han smiled and said, "If that's the case, I'll feel relieved."

Next, it’s time to get down to business.

Xia Yang said: "Mr. Li Han should know that when our publishing house publishes books, the remuneration to authors is generally divided into two types, the buyout system and the royalty system. I wonder which one Mr. Li Han prefers?"

Buyout is a one-time deal, usually for a price of 1,000 words.

After the buyout, the sales of the book have nothing to do with the author.

The royalty system means that after the book is published, the publisher will give the author a certain number of points of royalties based on the book's pricing multiplied by the number of print runs, that is, the number of copies.

To put it in a well-understood way, it is divided into.

Both methods have advantages and disadvantages for authors and publishers.

For the author, there is no risk in buying out. Even after the book is published, one copy will not be sold, and the publisher will only lose money.

But if after the book is published, it sells very well, and the sales are far better than previously estimated, the author can only watch. The money earned belongs to the publishing house.

If it is a royalty system, the better the book sells after publication, the more money the author can get.

But if it doesn’t sell well, the author won’t get much money.

How to choose between the two methods? It depends on how confident the author is in the sales of his work?

If you think the sales may not be good, choose a buyout.

If you think sales will be very hot, then choose the royalty system.

Of course, it also depends on what the publisher wants and what method they are willing to give you.

This requires careful discussion by both parties.

Li Han didn't know much about the buyout situation and didn't know how much money was appropriate, so let's use the royalty system.

So he said: "Let's use a royalty system. How many percentage points can Mr. Xia give?"

Xia Yang nodded. He had already guessed that Li Han would choose the royalty system, and he had already thought about the percentage.

He said: "Mr. Li Han, the percentage points given by our publishing house are generally between 3 points and 10 points. Most of them are between 3 points and 6 points. For Mr. Li Han's "Brain Teasers"

", we are willing to give the highest 10 points. What do you think of Mr. Li Han?"

Li Han nodded. He also knew something about this. He knew that generally only the top masters could get 10 points.

Now Xia Yang directly gave him 10 points, which was indeed very sincere.

In this case, Li Han was willing to readily conclude the deal.

Next, the two began to discuss layout issues and illustration issues.

These things should have been done by the editorial department, but Xia Yang wanted to hear Li Han's opinion.

Li Han is also willing to give his own opinions.

Speaking of which, this can be regarded as the first book he published in this world, and he took it very seriously.

After the discussion, it was almost noon, and the two went to a nearby hotel for dinner.

After eating, the two said goodbye.

Li Han got on his motorcycle and returned home.

As soon as I entered the yard and before I parked my car, my mother heard the sound of the motorcycle and walked out of the house quickly and said, "My dear, come on, Teacher Gan is here."

"Teacher Gan? Which Teacher Gan?" Li Han asked subconsciously while leaning on his motorcycle.

"You kid, your primary school teacher Gan!" My mother was a little dissatisfied.

Teacher Gan from primary school?

Li Han was shocked that it was Teacher Gan from the elementary school. He had never thought of this before, so he asked like that.

No wonder my mother is a little dissatisfied. This question should not be asked.

Teacher Gan’s name is Gan Huaqiong. She was Li Han’s Chinese teacher and class teacher in elementary school. She taught Li Han for six years.

Li Han's current class of students is Teacher Gan's last class of students.

When Li Han's class graduated, Teacher Gan was already fifty-four years old. After Li Han graduated, Teacher Gan retired.

After graduating from elementary school, Li Han never saw Teacher Gan again for nearly ten years.

Counting the time, Teacher Gan should be sixty-five years old this year.

Unexpectedly, Teacher Gan would suddenly come home today, which made Li Han very surprised and very ashamed.

He should be visiting the teacher. How could he let the teacher come to his home to find him?

Li Han went to primary school in Shuanglong Township Primary School, which is located on the street of Shuanglong Township.

Teacher Gan's home is in Meilin Village, Shuanglong Township, which is in the opposite direction to Yuanxi Village where Li Han lives, and is not too close.

Li Han always respected Teacher Gan very much. Surprised and ashamed, he hurriedly ran into the room.

After running a few steps, I saw a very familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar old man walking out of the house.

It's still the familiar face in my memory, but much older.

Teacher Gan is old and has gray hair on his temples. Fortunately, judging from the way he walks, his body is still very healthy, which makes Li Han feel less sad.

Li Han ran up even faster, held the teacher's hand with both hands, and shouted excitedly: "Teacher Gan!"
