Chapter 543 - Accidentally Becoming a Best-Selling Author!
Generally, fooling people choose when there is no one......
I chatted with Luo Zhou so much just now that I forgot that Zhou Chong was by my side, so that my image seemed to be a little damaged......
"Do you think I was trying to fool Dean Luo just now? Am I the kind of person who sells my reputation and deliberately exalts myself?" Qiao Zhi's tone was a little serious, and he asked Zhou Chong softly.
Zhou Chong was stunned, touched his nose,
Thinking carefully about Master's words and deeds, except for slamming doors and cheating people, it does not include the evil behavior of selling fame and reputation......
"It's not!"
"Then you explain, why did I emphasize to Dean Luo that that set of knives is very precious. ”
His wife likes this set of knives so much that if you tell him that he doesn't want money, that it's a sample sent by the manufacturer, you'll think you're disrespecting him. This counts as a white lie. ”
"That's right, but it's not enough, and you'll have to dig a little deeper. ”
Zhou Chong's brows furrowed, he thought for a long time, and finally said: "Although this set of knives is a sample, it is an exaggeration to smash a thousand hammers, but it must be a fine product." It's not on the market yet, it's a limited edition, and it's a great thing to give it away by your own hand. In the future, Qiao's main series of knives will be officially promoted to the outside world, and these sets of samples will only appreciate their value!"
There was finally a look of relief in his eyes.
The reason Zhou Chong found was very much in line with his own mind.
I really didn't think about it so much......
I didn't expect him to explain it so well for himself.
Savvy lad!
Qiao Zhi patted Zhou Chong on the shoulder, "It is worthy of being my eldest disciple, and he is quite business-minded and far-sighted." ”
Zhou Chong sneered: "Compared to Master's vision, I am still far behind. ”
After sending Zhou Chong away, Qiao Zhi knocked on the table with his hand.
Zhou Chong's words just now opened a new door for Qiao Zhi.
Qiao's main brand has a certain popularity, so that a lot of business comes to the door.
During the World Culinary League, Qiao Zhi's set of gem knives from Zheng Ze conquered countless fans with his exaggerated style.
Aitao, buy Duoduo and other online stores, some people smelled the business opportunity and sold the same gemstone knives as Qiao's helper.
As for the knife factory in Longquan City, he took the initiative to find Qiao Zhi, hoping that Qiao Zhi could consider launching a series of knives in the name of Qiao Gang.
The original meaning of the knife factory was to give Qiao Zhi an endorsement fee, to name and advertise this set of knives, so it sent more than ten sets of knife samples.
Now that I think about it, why don't you take the lead yourself and produce "Joe's Gang Leader's Periphery"?
In addition to knives, there are various equipment in the kitchen, such as large range hoods and stoves, as small as dish soap, cleaning balls, etc.
If it is only the production of traditional kitchen products, it is too low-end, and if you really want to produce, you have to add some more trendy products in line with the times.
reminds me that Huang Cheng has instilled the concept of smart home with himself before.
Is it possible to consider incorporating smart features into your kitchen items.
It's a bold, fun idea.
Creativity and inspiration often come from a single thought.
Grab the bull by the horns.
Qiao Zhi called Huang Cheng and told him the idea of Qiao's smart kitchen supplies.
Huang Cheng smiled: "Your idea is very good, but what technological elements can be added to kitchen supplies?"
"In addition to sharpness, there is also a need for sharpening knives, and if we can make a knife that does not need to be sharpened, there should be a market. In addition, a kind of knife if
It can change the blade, cut bones, cut tofu, and meet the needs of cooks. Qiao Zhi said.
Huang Cheng touched his chin and said, "I will hand over this idea to the team to study." If you have the opportunity, the R&D staff will talk to you, and you know the requirements better than they do. ”
Qiao Zhi smiled dumbly, "I'm just on a whim and cranky." ”
Huang Cheng said seriously: "The kitchen is the most important part of the family, and it is also the key area of smart home research and development. We can't make it to the top in one step, but we can start from a tool perspective to simplify the kitchen cooking process and make everyone a kitchen expert. ”
Qiao Zhi was slightly stunned and said with a smile: "It's just an idea for the time being." ”
Huang Cheng shook his head and smiled: "Maybe, we will become partners." ”
chatted with Huang Cheng for a few more words before hanging up the phone.
Qiao Zhi suddenly found that he became famous and well-connected, and it seemed that doing a lot of things began to become simpler.
For example, if the lease of the canteen of the vocational university is renewed, if it is replaced by a year ago, there is no room for bargaining with the college.
But now it's different.
Hearing that he was going to move out, the person in charge of the NTUC was even more nervous than himself.
Shen Xian came over to find Qiao Zhi, holding a mail bag in his hand.
"A sample book of pregnancy recipes has finally arrived in the mail. ”
"Oh, I'm almost forgetting about it. Is it in stock now?"
Both children have already been born, and as a result, the pregnancy cookbook has not yet been printed and marketed, which shows that the efficiency of the publishing house has not kept up with the times.
"It's already in stock!" Shen Xian said with a smile, "I heard from the editor of the publishing house that this book has a chance to hit this year's best-selling book, and the first printing of 20,000 copies has been agreed in major online bookstores." The second batch of 50,000 copies has now been printed. ”
Qiao Zhi smiled and said, "The results are good, then I will be relieved." I thought I wouldn't be able to sell 20,000 copies!"
Shen Xian complained: "If it is put on the market two weeks early, it will be able to sell at least 100,000 more copies." ”
Qiao Zhi bowed slightly.
The matter of "Brother Taker Medicine" caused a lot of uproar.
With the help of that wave of popularity, it is not much of a problem to sell more than 100,000 copies.
"I don't know if I can sell out of the 50,000 copies that have been printed! If I can't sell them out, I should buy some for my own activities! If I buy my own autographed books, I should be able to sell off a batch of the proceeds that will be donated to public welfare. Qiao Zhi said worriedly.
Shen Xian said with a smile: "Boss, you are too low-key! The publishing house will not do a loss-making business, and the second batch of 50,000 copies will definitely be sold! The first few batches are pre-sold through the Internet, and if there is a fixed number, it will be reprinted to save costs." When the printing exceeds 100,000 copies, it will be a bestseller, and then bookstores across the country will put it on the shelves, and there will be a chance to hit 200,000, or even 500,000. ”
Qiao Zhi's face showed a solemn expression, "You, don't think too beautifully, let's be modest and cautious, be humble, and not be complacent because of a little achievement, ignoring the upcoming difficulties and embarrassments." I'll call the editor later, and when he prints, he must consider the market and not irreversibly affect him because of blind impulse. ”
Shen Xian was stunned and sighed in a low voice, "Boss, you are too cautious. ”
"You must not be inflated, and you can't be complacent because of a little achievement. ”
"Then I'll go out first!" Shen Xian's eyes were full of admiration.
The biggest advantage of the boss is that he always maintains a very calm mind.
The fact that the book is so popular is a great thing for normal people.
he
But it is regarded as a breeze blowing on the face, floating dust and foam.
Qiao Zhi said to himself: "Zhou Chong, that kid, likes to add titles to me." Maybe I will add the aura of a best-selling author to my personal introduction. Alas, what a headache!"
Shen Xian was about to go out.
Hearing Qiao Zhi's words, his body shook significantly!
In fact, the book "Qiao Gang Master's Pregnancy Dog Food Recipe" can sell well, which was expected to be expected.
There is a lot of dry content, and pregnant women can get reasonable advice from it.
Every day, many expectant mothers join the account of Joe's helper, which is the effect of this book.
As a new father, Qiao Zhi not only provides good food, but also brings a kind of empathy to pregnant women.
It's a value that nothing else can bring.
Qiao Zhi took the cover of the book to Tao Ruxue.
Tao Ruxue quickly replied with a surprised expression, "Published?"
Qiao Zhi smiled and typed the text, "Yes! It's selling very well, and the publishing house is ready to reprint!"
Tao Ruxue thought for a while and replied: "Wait and bring it back, I want to save it, remember to sign it! You promised that this is your gift to me and my children." ”
I didn't expect Tao Ruxue to send such a text, and Qiao Zhixin was touched.
Compared with the tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, the number of additional prints is not as good as Tao Ruxue's gratitude in a few words.
Tao Ruxue's cover photo is enlarged.
I watched and looked and talked to myself.
"I didn't expect to become a recipe writer. It doesn't sound like a writer, a poet, a writer, or a prose writer, but he has a book anyway. ”
Think carefully about Qiao Zhi's resume.
A successful young entrepreneur, a world-class young chef, an Internet celebrity with tens of millions of fans, a major guest on a hit variety show, and a best-selling recipe writer in the future?
Qiao Zhi is a bit like Nezha with three heads and six arms, and he surprises people from time to time.
But Tao Ruxue also knows that so many achievements can be achieved not overnight, but through slow accumulation.
The wine is aged fragrant.
Qiao Zhi is a bit like old wine.
It tastes spicy to the throat but has a long aftertaste.
Around six o'clock in the evening, Qiao Zhi usually goes home early.
Tao Ruxue has already started to work, and during the day, she thinks that the two babies will be taken care of by the wet nurse.
Qiao Zhi hugged him for a while and went into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Although there is a professional confinement lady, the dinner for the two children in the evening is also prepared by Qiao Zhi.
Because I don't have teeth yet, I can only drink a little juice or paste.
But the food cooked by Qiao Zhi is obviously popular with children.
Tao Ruxue will also taste a little bit every day, not saying anything, but in her heart she still approves of the baby meal prepared by Qiao Zhi.
"I've published a pregnant woman's cookbook, are you considering publishing another baby cookbook?" Tao Ruxue said with a smile.
Qiao Zhi was slightly stunned, "It's a good idea! I'll communicate with the editor later." ”
Tao Ruxue was stunned, "You really like not doing your job." ”
Qiao Zhi shrugged, "What if you don't do your job, some people can't do it in a lifetime, I did it, and the results are quite good." ”
Tao Ruxue couldn't cry or laugh, "Your current appearance is really annoying!"
Qiao Zhi smiled dumbly, "That is, in the face of you, I will take off my mask and let you see my inner world." ”
Tao Ruxue thought about it carefully, a little moved, and a little distressed!
