Chapter 76: Sorry, Sold Out

As the largest book sales website in China, Dangshu will sell books published by general publishing houses on Dangshu Online.

Nine o'clock in the morning.

"The Hobbit" published by Jiangcheng Publishing House and "The Magic Empire" published by Chuangwen Publishing House have become the most high-profile new books on the shelves today.

In a large fantasy forum.

Since the other day, there have been a lot of posts about The Hobbit and The Magic Empire, which have basically been slaughtered.

Because during this time, these two fantasy novels are the most popular.

One is a new book by last year's best-selling author Guo Kun, and the other is an adventure story written by an eight-and-a-half-year-old genius prodigy.

The authors of both books are full of gimmicks.

Especially Qin Junhao, as an eight-and-a-half-year-old genius prodigy, made netizens call this little guy's imagination too powerful.

The whimsical racial settings and interlocking adventures in "The Hobbit" are simply addictive to it.

Many netizens in the forum are keeping watch for the time, ready to buy a copy of "The Hobbit".

Because in the fantasy world, "The Hobbit" only serialized the first tens of thousands of words, and in the author's notes, it means that the book has more than 200,000 words, and new races will appear.

This can't help but make readers look forward to it.

In addition to the adventure story, the new race setting also made netizens full of curiosity.

At nine o'clock, after Dangshu.com started selling "The Hobbit", many netizens flocked to Dangshu.com and began to order "The Hobbit".

Qin Junhao is also a member of the buying army.

However, at this moment, Qin Junhao never expected that there would be so many netizens who opened the book network at the same time as himself and were ready to buy books that it was unimaginable.

Because the novel "The Hobbit" has been passed on by word of mouth in the field of fantasy fiction.

After Qin Junhao entered Dangshu.com, he felt that the Dangshu.com APP seemed to be a little stuck, could it be because his 4G traffic network speed was not good?

Qin Junhao didn't think much about it.

Soon, in the search box, I typed in "The Hobbit" and clicked to search to enter the main interface of the book monopoly.

Book: The Hobbit

Price: 35 yuan

Word count: about 230,000

Publisher: Jiangcheng Publishing House

Qin Junhao directly clicked to buy......

Wait a minute!

Qin Junhao's eyes widened, he was originally going to click to buy, but it turned out that the [Buy Directly] option turned out to be gray?

"Huh?"

Qin Junhao muttered, then exited the interface, clicked in again, and found that the [Buy Directly] option was still gray.

"What's going on?"

Qin Junhao was stunned, took a closer look at the book sales interface, and finally found the words "sold out".

"That's sold out?"

Qin Junhao looked at the time in the upper left corner of the phone, it was only 9:01, it was only a minute later, and it was sold out?

Drip, drip!

A WeChat message appeared in the notification bar.

Qin Junhao pulled it down and clicked on it to see that it was sent by Meng Peipei.

Meng Peipei: (crying expression) Wow~, Brother Junhao, I didn't grab "The Hobbit", did you grab it?

Qin Junhao originally thought that he was late, but it didn't come true, and Meng Peipei didn't snap up "The Hobbit".

Your own book is on sale today, will it sell so fast?

"Sister Pepe, I didn't buy it either, when I clicked on the book network, it showed that it was sold out. ”

Qin Junhao replied helplessly.

Drip, drip!

At this time, Miss Lin Shiqiu also sent a WeChat message.

Lin Shiqiu: Ahhhhhh!!h

When Qin Junhao saw Lin Shiqiu's WeChat message, he was a little confused.

What's going on?

Even if I didn't snap up "The Hobbit", I didn't even buy Lin Shiqiu and Meng Peipei?

"No, young lady, you didn't buy it either, this time 20,000 copies were published!"

Qin Junhao replied.

Lin Shiqiu: Stinky brother, why did you publish 20,000 copies, it's no wonder that so few were sold out all at once.

"Huh?"

Qin Junhao thinks that 20,000 copies is already a lot, right?

Lin Shiqiu: Stinky brother, you don't know yet, right?

"Know what?"

Qin Junhao hurriedly asked.

Lin Shiqiu: Your book has become popular in major fantasy novel forums, and it has been spread by word of mouth in the circle, with an excellent reputation, many people like your "The Hobbit", and squatted on the book network early in the morning to buy it, and I squatted on time, but I didn't buy it!!

Seeing Lin Shiqiu say this, Qin Junhao finally realized it a little later.

In the past two days, Qin Junhao really hasn't paid close attention to the popularity of "The Hobbit" on the whole network, but he only knows that the results on the official website of Fantasy World have always been very good.

"It's a bit unexpected. ”

After Qin Junhao replied to Miss Lin Shiqiu's WeChat message, he raised his head and looked at the father sitting next to him, and asked, "Dad, how do you guess "The Hobbit" is selling?"

When Qin Dalei heard this, he reacted, it's already nine o'clock at this time, right?

Yesterday, the old song of Jiangcheng Publishing House called me and said that my son's "The Hobbit" was officially on sale at nine o'clock today.

"Son, how many copies have you sold?"

Qin Dalei asked suspiciously.

"Sold out. ”

Qin Junhao replied with a smile.

"Oh, it's sold out, what? sold out?" Qin Dalei glanced at the watch time on his wrist: "Isn't it on sale at nine o'clock, this is sold out?"

"Yes, it's sold out, but I don't know if it's a bug on the book network, Dad, can you call Uncle Qu and ask?"

Qin Junhao actually wants to know what the specific sales data of his "The Hobbit" is, for example, how many copies of "The Hobbit" on Dangshu Network were sold out in a short period of time when they went on sale at nine o'clock?

"Yes, ask Lao Qu. ”

Qin Dalei muttered, and after taking out his mobile phone, he opened the call record, found Qu Jiayang's phone number that he had just called yesterday, and dialed it.

"Cub, didn't you publish 20,000 copies, and they all sold out?"

Lin Yushuang felt incredible.

Although she doesn't know much about the brick-and-mortar publishing industry, she also knows that 20,000 brick-and-mortar books is not a few.

Why is it only a minute or two that it was sold out?

"Mom, a total of 20,000 copies have been printed and published, which are sold in the physical bookstores of Dangshu.com and Jiangcheng respectively, and there are definitely not 20,000 copies on the Dangshu Network, but most of them should be sold on the Dangshu Network. ”

Qin Junhao explained to his mother Lin Yushuang that not all 20,000 copies were sold online as books.

However, physical bookstores are getting more and more sluggish, so when there are not 20,000 books on the Internet, it is estimated that there are 16,700 books, right?

"What did you just say, old song? When the 18,000 copies of The Hobbit on the book were sold out by readers within 46 seconds of the sale?"
