Chapter 852 I am a loyal fan

"Mr. Jia, I'm glad we meet again. My gratitude to you is really indescribable!" When I saw Boss Jia again, jk Rowling could almost be described as gratitude.

But this is not surprising, because after Harry Potter topped the best-selling list in the UK, Harry Potter has sold 50,000 copies in three months.

Don’t think that the quantity is very small. You should know that in this era, it is an unprecedented miracle that can sell a children’s literature book in the past 20 years.

The sales of 50,000 copies also brought Jettyroline a £200,000 pounds of royalties. Coupled with the signing fee from Boss Jia, JK not only got rid of his previous embarrassing life, but also made JK Rowling buy a house in London and a villa in the suburbs of his hometown. He sent several of his children to top private schools, which made JK Rowling's life undergo a complete change.

Now, "Harry Potter" is about to be launched in the United States. If "Harry Potter" can have half of the miracle in the United States and the United Kingdom, no, even if it is only 1/4, it can still achieve 10 times the sales volume of the United Kingdom. JK Rowling can really make a fortune.

Moreover, Boss Jia also gave JK Rowling the right to obtain continuous income. In the future, JK Rowling can get 50% of the royalties brought by the "Harry Potter" series.

As for derivatives such as movies or animations, she can also get a 3% profit share.

[I wrote before that jk Rowling only received 20% of the royalties. In this way, I feel that jk Rowling will definitely make trouble in the future, so I changed it to the above version, but the signing fee for each book was reduced from 1 million US dollars to 100,000 US dollars]

You said how JK Rowling is not grateful to our boss Jia now... After all, Boss Jia has bought out all copyrights of the "Harry Potter" series in the next 50 years, as well as the worldview derivative works of "Harry Potter", etc., all cultural copyrights. If JK Rowling dares to have any disrespect to Boss Jia, Boss Jia will kick JK Rowling away and then find a Chinese online writer to write "The Ten Harry Potter Collections".

Believe it or not, a work written by an online writer is usually no worse than JK Rowling.

"Where are there!" Boss Jia said with a smile, chatting and laughing with JK Rowling for a long time, Boss Jia got to the point and said, "I have read Harry Potter and the Magic Stone several times. I have also read the draft of Harry Potter and the Secret Room several times. I am also a loyal fan of your seriousness! So I have some questions about the plot and hope to get your answer!"

"Mr. Jia is joking!" jk Rowling laughed and said, "Actually, I have written and thought of it. I haven't thought about how to deal with many foreshadowings for the time being. I may not really not answer you some questions. But I promise that as long as I have already thought about it, I will definitely answer you, even if it is spoilers, it doesn't matter."

"Hahaha, it has nothing to do with spoilers. I think it's better to wait until the plot is written before reading it. I'm just a little curious about the world view of this book. Whether it's a Philosopher's Stone or a Secret Room, it only describes the magic world of Britain. So in other countries, are there no magic and wizards?" Boss Jia asked curiously.

"Of course there is, otherwise the world will be unreasonable!" jk Rowling became extremely happy when she heard Boss Jia actually talked to her about the specific content of her worldview.

In fact, although the two were having a happy chat before, they were basically clichés and nonsense. However, when Boss Jia talked about the worldview with JK Rowling, JK Rowling confirmed that Boss Jia really looked at him and watched it very carefully and seriously. Otherwise, such a thing would not have been born, and it was not a question that a die-hard fan could not have.

After discovering that his boss really valued and loved him, jk Rowling immediately burst out with 120,000 enthusiasm and explained to Boss Jia, "In my imagination, the magic society exists all over the world, and unlike all countries in the real world, the society of wizards is relatively united, but there is no war, and there is an organization with certain rights to unify and restrain the wizards around the world."

"Of course, each country itself has its own magic administrative units. The British wizards are directly controlled by the Ministry of Magic, while the United States is controlled by the Magic Parliament. In fact, the entire Europe is basically controlled by the Ministry of Magic, but each country has its own branches. Some countries with historical origins can control multiple countries with one magic department. As for other countries, each has its own systems. In the end, all magic administrative institutions are unified under the control of the World Magic Parliament!" jk Rowling briefly described his idea of ​​the administrative power of the entire magic world.

Of course, because jk Rowling only wrote two Harry Potter books at this time, many of the settings are not perfect, and the specific content sounds like a certain gap with the magic world that will eventually take shape in the future.

"And in my imagination, there is not only one magic school in the world. In Europe, such as France, Germany, and Russia, they should all have their own magic school. I secretly spoil it for you. In a certain book in the future, Harry Potter describes a fierce competition between academies in several countries!" JK Rowling said, and then his eyes shone, and he was immersed in the world he designed.

"Well, it's such a great idea!" Boss Jia praised, making JK Rowling smile like a flower, and then Boss Jia continued, "Then I want to know, how did you design the magic society in China? You know, I am a Chinese and I'm very curious about these!"

"This..." JK Rowling, who was talking nonstop just now, was immediately stuck.

jk Rowling studied French and classical literature in college, so the magic world she wrote was very magical. But if you let him understand the classical society and cultivation system of China, it would be a bit difficult.

"I think the wizards in China may have formed a party with high organization and control capabilities, and then managed the wizards in China!" jk Rowling began to create on the spot, but Boss Jia only frowned.

Isn’t this just adding some Westerners’ traditional impressions of Chinese into the magic world? This is simply a bunch of shit!

"It's very good, but it's a little different from the Chinese magic society I imagined!" Boss Jia interrupted jk Rowling with a smile, and then jk Rowling said with relief, "It turns out that Mr. Jia already has an idea, so I wonder how you designed it?"

"Actually, this is one of my goals today. I spent several months and energy designing a simple Chinese magic society system and some unique Chinese things. I hope you can see if it can be added to the main text of Harry Potter and reflect it!" Boss Jia said sincerely.

"I have written so much!" jk Rowling was really moved when he saw Boss Jia holding a thick copy in his hand, which looked like he had twenty or thirty pages of documents to him.

Boss Jia really loves himself, otherwise he would not have written such detailed settings by himself.
Chapter completed!
