My art is too advanced.

Chapter 158 Am I a pirate? (Monthly ticket requested!!!)
Lin Nuo is one of the persons in charge of the Manhua platform.

At this moment, I was staring at the Moyin short video in front of me.

"Why is it that even short video platforms want to share our comics' traffic?"

He flipped through the comics in front of him for a while.

“This quality is really high!”

It is difficult for him to see comics of this level. After all, the domestic comics industry is just starting out and is even borrowing some foreign comics operating models.

Casual talk.

This platform also emerged through the test of time.

We were able to stand until the end, but we are still operating at a loss.

Because comics really don’t make any money!
Even though they operated the big IP "A Mortal's Journey to Immortality", they only lost money and gained publicity.

The cost of promotion is much more than the money earned.

Even now, the Manhua platform has no intention of continuing to develop vigorously, and just wants to be able to simply be self-sufficient.

Lin Nuo showed this comic to the senior management.

"Is it a Taoist trick? Is it released for free?"

The top management was somewhat shocked.

"I have personally discussed this IP with Yuedong, but they said that the copyright is not in their hands and has been taken by the author himself. We even tried to contact the author himself, but they were informed that they did not plan to post it on the comic platform."

“Now, why is it released for free?”

The top brass took a look at the production of this comic.

“This is such high quality.”

He felt extremely surprised.

"I think even the top domestic painters can't paint these three beautiful pictures. They may have to catch up with the international masters."

"As for the fourth episode, although it's average, it's still pretty good."

"Besides, this plot and this IP are really good."

The senior executive looked at him helplessly, "But if he doesn't want to launch a comic platform, then there's nothing we can do."

"Posting it to a short video platform might just be for readers to watch it for free."

"But, he might be able to send it to us, right? Should I go talk to him?"

"Okay, it would be great if you can get the deal. This comic book will definitely bring in huge traffic. After all, it is one of the most popular online novels right now, and it is no worse than The Immortal Cultivation of Mortals. Moreover, the readers are all die-hard fans."

"."

Lin Nuo began to ask for Zhou Yue's contact information through his cooperative relationship with Yuedong.

Zhou Yue was also quite surprised when he heard it.

"Then ask him to add me."

He didn't really want to post it on a professional platform. After all, the traffic on the comic platform was too small.

It is true that you can make a lot of money, but the traffic you earn is not as good as waiting for the magic sound push.

Soon, someone added Zhou Yue’s contact information.

Zhou Yue only had time to deal with this matter in the evening.

Lin Nuo did not lose heart and waited patiently.

"Hello." Zhou Yue sent a message first, "I was busy just now and didn't have time to respond. Sorry."

"It's okay, Mr. Zhou."

"I want to talk to you about cooperation."

"I am the project leader of the Manhua platform, which is one of the largest comics platforms in China."

"How do you want to cooperate?" Zhou Yue said after a moment of hesitation.

"You can put your work on our platform. Our platform has operated big IPs such as Mortal Cultivation. If your work is also operated by us, you will also get more benefits."

"And we can give you a very valuable contract. After all, your work has traffic itself."

Zhou Yue shook his head slightly.

Without giving it much thought, he spoke his mind directly. "I still prefer this comic to be free on the Internet. As for the revenue, I don't care that much."

"But since you're here to talk, let me share my thoughts as well."

“Although this comic is said to be free, I still hope to expand its influence.”

"You can take it to the station, and then publish chapters for free, and even promote it."

"Except that it cannot be used commercially, everything else is fine."

Lin Nuo was slightly startled.

Why does he feel that by doing this, they are like pirated products?
They are one of the largest comic platforms in the country, so naturally they would not do such piracy.

If you can't get this IP in your own hands, it's better not to do it.

However, based on what Zhou Yue said, he felt it was worth considering temporarily.

It cannot be used for commercial purposes, but it can be used for publicity and traffic generation. This seems to be a good idea, right?

After all, the "Daogui" IP still represents huge traffic.

Even if it is added to their promotional videos or pictures, it can bring in a lot of traffic.

Moreover, it does not require much thought.

"I'll go back and think about it."

"it is good."

The next day, Lin Nuo sent him another message.

Said that the higher-ups have agreed.

And sent him a contract.

Zhou Yue opened it and took a look.

"We have corresponding prices here. After all, you can't take Mr. Zhou's comics for free. Moreover, Mr. Zhou's comic production level is also very high. It is no exaggeration to say that the first three chapters are the ceiling of domestic comics."

Zhou Yue took a look at the contract.

It's very simple. There are not too many interest chains involved. It just can't be used for commercial purposes, but it can be used for publicity.

This is the top comics company in the country.

Zhou Yue also didn't think they would do anything fishy in the contract.

And there are prices below.

If you maintain the standard, they offer one thousand yuan for each episode.

Moreover, there will be a dedicated person to communicate and negotiate about his comic book.

What Zhou Yue needs to do is to give them a copy after drawing the comic.

This is just the price of putting the comic on their website, with the full text free.

"Not bad. They spent money to buy the traffic of Daogui."

Moreover, the copyright belongs to him and he can terminate the contract at any time.

After the contract is signed.

Zhou Yue sent the first four chapters over, and Lin Nuo generously transferred four thousand yuan to him.

Lin Nuo felt that he had made a profit.

After all, this comic is extremely well-made. Even if they don't charge for it, it can be considered a good publicity.

Next, six comic channels contacted him, either through Moyin’s backstage or through Naiyou.

Excluding two companies with bad reputations, Zhou Yue signed similar contracts with the remaining four companies one by one.

So now, the basic guarantee has reached 5,000 yuan.

"One episode, the current cost is about three thousand yuan."

"Okay."

He is just testing the waters with this comic. If the influence or feedback to the readers of the original book is greater, then he can do the same with the next book.

There is still a lot of room for trial and error.
