Chapter 321: "Ghost Blows the Lantern" is a little fierce (second update)
(2nd Update)
Although the signing of the two books "Goodbye Youth" and "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" was separated by one day, the physical books were put on the shelves at the same time.
In the early morning of January 15th, booksellers all over the country smelled a smell of making a fortune, and almost at the same time they all bought a large number of two books, "Goodbye Youth" and "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", and stored them in warehouses, ready to wait until the release date to make a fortune.
The two books were on the shelves at the same time, both were published by Yenching Publishing House, and both held a full-house signing party, but some details of the books were different.
"Goodbye Youth" is a youth type of more than 200,000 words, with an asking price of about 30 yuan, and it comes with Liu Ruoxi's autographed photos and various easter egg cards.
The first book in the "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" series is also about 200,000 words, but the sales price is 50 yuan, and nothing comes with it.
From the asking price and giveaways of these two books, it can already be seen what the sales expectations of the publishers and major booksellers are for these two books......
In their hearts, "Goodbye Youth" may be able to make them a lot of money, but it is not as good as "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" at all
The book "Ghost Blows the Lantern" itself has become very popular on the website, and it is a phenomenal IP, and then the author of this book is a popular king in the entire entertainment industry, and his appeal is amazing, plus Chu Qing's last book has the foundation of the amazing sales of "Zhu Xian", so even if "Ghost Blows the Lamp" wants to hit the street, there is nothing he can do.
Others are powerless if they want to fire, but this book is powerless if they want to fight the streets!
Yes, it's so unreasonable, so capricious.
On this day, Tiandi Chinese Network, Yanjing Publishing House, and booksellers large and small across the country were very excited to wait for the day when "Ghost Blowing Lantern" would be sold, and everyone was watching how far "Ghost Blowing Lantern" could go.
At about 6 o'clock in the morning of January 16, bookstores of all sizes across the country opened at the same time, and the two books "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" and "Goodbye Youth" were put on sale at the same time......
When all bookstores opened their doors, the same situation occurred, that is, countless readers flocked to buy the first book of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", and the traffic in front of many bookstores was already completely blocked, and in just one morning, all the booksellers announced that their stocks were all gone, and even the sample books on the shelves were bought by crazy readers......
In short supply!
Yes, the typical supply exceeds demand, this situation is something that Yenching Publishing House did not expect, although they knew that "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" would be a big hit, but they never imagined that "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" could be so exaggerated......
………………………………
Yenching Publishing House.
"Manager Xu, let's place another order for the printing house and let them send more people to work overtime to print, and I have accepted another three million orders here. ”
"What? All three million copies were sold out in one morning? Such an exaggeration? It's only been half a day!"
"It's really sold out, the phone at the front desk of our publishing house has been completely blown up by booksellers all over the country, and it's a requirement that is to hurry up and stock up, and the bad temper even directly scolded us that we are doing some kind of bullshit hunger marketing strategy to kill them, and now we don't dare to answer the phone at the front desk, the company's sales department has countless orders, I personally suggest that the printing volume be divided into two printing plants, one printing house is afraid that it can't withstand it at all." ”
"I'll have to approve this from above. ”
"Well, okay, Manager Xu, I hope you can hurry, otherwise my sales department is really overwhelmed, and the bookseller is probably going to kill you." ”
"Yes, okay, I understand. ”
About half an hour later, Manager Xu took the request to agree to reprint portions, and then hurriedly contacted several well-known printing houses, and directly ordered five million copies of the printing list.
In Manager Xu's opinion, 5 million points should be able to withstand for a while, but on the morning of the 17th, there was another huge order from the sales department, announcing that "Ghost Blows the Lantern" was sold out again.
Manager Xu looked at the countless orders and felt that his imagination had been refreshed again, and continued to give the printing house the task to put the amount to 10 million......
As for Liu Ruoxi's "Goodbye Youth", it was a little bit out of time, if it hadn't been released with "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", the sales of this "Goodbye Youth" would still be able to break the previous record and become a small hit. However, once "Ghost Blows Out the Lantern" was released, the sales of "Goodbye Youth" seemed to be a little lacking in explosiveness, and many fans who were originally Liu Ruoxi saw that "Ghost Blows Out the Lantern" was released, and they left "Goodbye Youth" without any discipline and went to buy "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" first......
As of the afternoon of the 19th, "Goodbye Youth" has sold 2 million copies across the country, but "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" has sold more than 30 million copies in a frenzy, and these more than 30 million copies are not the cap of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".
There is no comparison, it doesn't hurt, "Goodbye Youth" sold three million copies, if it was placed before, Liu Ruoxi would still be able to accept it, after all, this result is still in the middle and upper, but as soon as it is compared with the unreasonable sales volume of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", Liu Ruoxi feels that she wants to cry a little......
This man is more angry than humans.
Liu Ruoxi remembered the actor who had been auditioned by herself......
I didn't expect this seemingly ordinary actor to be so mad now, not counting the scourge of the entertainment industry, but also began to plague the physical book publishing again......
……………………………
"Aoko is a mysterious man born to break records, and he is an almost all-powerful crossover king. When you think he is an actor, he used the album "Qingzi" to prove that he is actually a singer, and when you think he is a singer, he used the two books "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" and "Zhu Xian" to prove that he is actually a writer...... Although, his appearance is no more than some popular little fresh meat, but his talent has exploded, and they don't know it for a few streets......" Weibo famous troll, Li Xiangru, who has almost sprayed all the big and small stars in the entertainment industry, did not spray Chu Qing this time, not only did not spray Chu Qing, but posted such a strange Weibo.
"I think that when you are a man, you should be like Qingzi, although you are not handsome, but you are talented and admirable!" he added at the end.
This Weibo was originally just Zhang Xiangru's casual emotion, and he didn't think of other thoughts, but not long after this Weibo was posted, countless Weibo friends reprinted it and liked it......
Do you think he can get praise for this Weibo? Not only is it impossible, but it is more like a crazy spray.
"Zhang Xiangru, I think you have a problem with your aesthetics, right? Our Qingzi is not handsome? Why do you dare to say that our Qingzi is not handsome? Do you want to have a little face?"
"Bald old man, you actually compare Qingzi with those little fresh meat with no connotation? I think you have lost your mind!"
"yes, you're really out of your mind!"
"SB Zhang Xiangru, what are you, saying that Qingzi is not handsome? What is this photo? It's just blind to your dog's eyes!"
"Yes, trash, you look at it with wide eyes, how handsome our Qingzi is compared to you!"
"I like the previous sentence on Weibo, but I can't bear it when I say that Qingzi is not handsome, it turns out that you are a high-level black!"
Chu Qing has a group of crazy brainless fans on the Internet, and they can't see others saying that their idols are not good at all.
After Zhang Xiangru posted this Weibo, he went to have lunch, and after eating lunch, he returned to the computer and saw countless comments under Weibo.
He was a little confused.
I'm just telling the truth, do you need to spray me like that?
I don't have Hei Qingzi, on the contrary, I'm praising Qingzi for being amazing, don't you see?
Qingzi's appearance is really not handsome in the entertainment industry, right? At least compared to those little fresh meat, Qingzi is good at masculine type?
Everyone calls me a Weibo troll, but now it seems that I am not a Weibo troll.
Qingzi, this group of fans of yours is the real Weibo trolls......
Zhang Xiangru shook his head, and then saw that the popularity of his Weibo rushed to the homepage, and suddenly there was a little bit of crying and laughing.
Well, it's the first time I've been sprayed on the homepage of Weibo......
This was a real surprise.
………………………………
The fire of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" was, to some extent, expected by Chu Qing.
Chu Qing has now begun to be a little numb to the word "making money", he will see hundreds of thousands or millions of manuscript fees and album sharing money hit his card every day, although the amount is not very stable, but every sum of money is very considerable.
At first, Chu Qing would be excited when he saw the money on his card, and for a long time he felt that he had stepped on the pinnacle of his life, but as the time slowly became longer and the manuscript fee slowly increased, Chu Qing began to become numb, and he even felt that hundreds of thousands of dollars were no longer a concept......
With the success of the "demon" flow route in Hancheng, Firefly Media began to create a different image for each artist according to their own attributes......
The whole company seems to be thriving, and the overall scale has gradually begun to move towards a second-rate entertainment company......
At the beginning of the year, Firefly Media only rented two floors of office buildings, and at the end of December, Firefly Media simply rented half of the building, and recustomized the billboards, no longer looking a little LO, some leather bag company Firefly Media, at least it still looks like such an entertainment company.
Chu Qing didn't have any opinions on these, after all, the company began to get on the right track, and after it started to make money, some scale was appropriately expanded.
Since the end of the signing meeting, Chu Qing has come to Firefly Media every day to listen to Wang Ying talk about the future development direction and the company's planning route, and Chu Qing has basically continued to mix his days like a salted fish, and has kept a low profile.
Of course, it is not a messy day for Chu Qing, after all, there are still about ten days before the rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala, and the start time of the crews of "Futu" and "Jiangshan" is scheduled for next year, as for "Killing in the City" and "The Most Beautiful", he only plays two supporting roles, and Chu Qing, who has a supporting role, doesn't care about the supporting roles or anything, so he doesn't need to prepare for an audition or anything at all......
Therefore, Chu Qing felt that he should take a good rest in the more than ten days he had vacated, such as playing League of Legends to make his account hit the bricks and stones as soon as possible, or asking Mai Xiaoyu to take himself to the king or something......
Mai Xiaoyu has become accustomed to receiving a call from Chu Qing every night to accompany Chu Qing to play League of Legends and be cheated by the fate of being pitted.
On the twentieth of January, when Chu Qing called Mai Xiaoyu again, he obviously felt that Mai Xiaoyu's voice was a little tired, and at the same time there was a kind of pain that even Chu Qing himself couldn't say.
This kind of pain is not the pain of being trapped by oneself, this pain seems to come from some inexplicable pressure.
Chu Qing could still hear this.
"Brother Qing...... I may not be able to play Pro League of Legends again, and our team will be disbanded. ”
After Mai Xiaoyu said this, Mai Xiaoyu hung up the phone, and it was the first time he hung up Chu Qing's phone.
After Chu Qing heard the beep on the other end of the phone, Chu Qing realized that something might have happened to Mai Xiaoyu.
