417【Kodansha's Sincere Invitation】
July 20th.
Kotan Co., Ltd.
"We are an agent in Osaka, please send an additional 30,000 copies of Jurassic Park as soon as possible!"
"Okay, we'll ship it over as soon as possible!"
The answerer immediately hung up the phone, immediately wrote "Osaka Urgent 30,000" on the register, and then turned back to Yamamoto Ichiro and said: "Manager Yamamoto, Osaka wants us to send 30,000 copies urgently!"
Ichiro Yamamoto said calmly: "Then call the printing house and ask them to ship directly to Osaka!"
"Yes!"
The operator hurriedly dialed the phone number of the printing house and asked the warehouse to ship directly to Osaka.
"Jingle Bell ......"
"We are Kawasaki and want 50,000 copies!"
"Manager Yamamoto! Kawasaki City wants 50,000 copies!"
"Jingle Bell ......"
"We are Nagoya, we want 40,000 copies, please ship them as soon as possible!"
"Nagoya also needs 40,000 copies!"
“……”
"Yokohama 70,000 copies!"
"Kyo... Kyoto they want 100,000 copies!"
Suddenly, more than a dozen answering people were scrambling to answer calls from various areas, all of them running out of goods, and continued to distribute more books from Kodansha.
"This!"
Seeing that the callers were answering the phone all the time, reporting how many copies of "Jurassic Park" were required in which district, Ichiro Yamamoto was stunned for a few seconds, and then his face was overjoyed, and he quickly turned around and walked to the president's office.
"Knock Knock"
"Come in!"
"Good news, good news, good news, President!"
President Matsumoto raised his eyes and looked at Yamamoto, seeing that he was happy, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "What good news?"
Ichiro Yamamoto was overjoyed and said: "President, just now all the agents in Osaka, Kyoto, Yokohama and other regions have called, urging us to hurry up the delivery as soon as possible! I just estimated that the total is at least 500,000 copies!"
"Really!" said President Matsumoto smacked his feet.
"Yes, president, I have just notified the printing house to let them continue to print "Jurassic Park", I think the final sales of this book, if nothing else, should be the same as Mr. Huo's "1999", and it is not impossible to surpass the sales of "Japan Sinks"!"
"1999! Japan Sinks!"
President Matsumoto's eyes are like torches, but he is well aware of the sensation of "1999" when it was released in Japan, not only breaking the sales list in Japan for more than 20 years, but also the first book in Japan to exceed 4 million sales.
It's just a pity that this title of No. 1 in sales has not been worn for two years, and it was surpassed by "Japan Sinks" created by Japanese science fiction writer Sakyo Komatsu.
Aside from Komatsu Sakyo's identity as a Japanese compatriot, President Matsumoto thinks that this "Japan Sinks" is not good-looking, and it does not have the shock of Huo Jun's sci-fi masterpiece "1999 Trilogy".
In addition, when "Japan Sinks" was published last year, it was used by many **** people, threatening that Japan would sink in the future, and our great Yamato nation should find a new home as soon as possible.
This also led to many people who did not know the truth to buy this book.
President Matsumoto was very dissatisfied with the increase in sales in this rogue way, and Kobunsha, one of Kodansha's old rivals, who published "Japan Sinks", naturally disliked it even more.
"Yamamoto!"
President Matsumoto suddenly shouted.
"The president who is here!"
Ichiro Yamamoto nodded in acquiescence.
"Inform the people of the Propaganda Department to continue to increase the publicity of "Jurassic Park" throughout Japan, and make sure that every city and prefecture must have a poster of "Jurassic Park"!"
"Yes!"
Ichiro Yamamoto was about to turn around and go to the arrangement, when President Matsumoto said again: "Yamamoto, you send a telegram to Hong Kong to Yao Jun to ask if Huo Jun has time, and our Kodansha sincerely invites him to come to Japan for a book signing." ”
"This..."
Ichiro Yamamoto hesitated for a few seconds and said, "President, we have invited Huo Jun a few times before, but he has shirked it, I think this time I am afraid it will be ......."
Also!
Three years ago, when "1999" sold four million copies in Japan, President Matsumoto sent a telegram to warmly invite Huo Yaowen to come to Japan.
"In this way, you let Fujiwara and them fly to Hong Kong in person, and invite Huo Jun on my behalf, this time you have to invite Huo Jun no matter what!" President Matsumoto was very dissatisfied when he thought of the triumphant posture of his old rival Kobunsha in this year with "Japan Sinks".
So he saw that "Jurassic Park" had a chance to surpass the sales of "Japan Sinking" this time, and he was also ruthless, and he must sell "Jurassic Park" to 6 million copies, so as to break the sales of "Japan Sinking" of 5.38 million!
It's time for them to know that Japan's largest publishing house will always be Kodansha!
……
July 22nd.
Hong Kong Yaowen Book Publishing Company.
Yao Wenjie hurriedly walked into the conference room, and as soon as he entered the door, he noticed Nobita Fujiwara and Kimura.
"Yao Jun!"
The two immediately stood up and bowed.
Although he is still not used to bowing as soon as others meet him, as if he is dead, Yao Wenjie knows that this is Japanese etiquette, and he can only complain a few words in his heart before he stretches out his hand with a smile and says, "Mr. Fujiwara, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
"Yao Jun is still so strong. Nobita Fujiwara clasped his hands and said.
"Haha, aren't Mr. Fujiwara and Mr. Kimura the same?"
A few people laughed and exchanged a few words.
Fujiwara Dainobita explained his intention: "Yao Jun, this time I came with Kimura, mainly on behalf of Mr. Matsumoto, the president of Kodansha Co., Ltd., to warmly invite Huo Jun to Japan to hold a signing meeting. ”
"Signing Meeting......
Yao Wenjie smiled and said, "I'm afraid there is no way about this." ”
As soon as he heard this, Fujiwara Nobita hurriedly got up and bent over, lowered his head and pleaded: "Yao Jun, please believe in the sincerity of our president and our Kodansha, we warmly want to invite Huo Jun to come to Japan to hold a book signing, and his millions of book fans in Japan are also eager for Huo Jun to come to Japan." ”
Kimura also got up and bent down at a ninety-degree angle and pleaded, "Yao Jun, please believe in our sincerity!"
"Mr. Fujiwara and Mr. Kimura, you don't have to be like that. ”
Yao Wenjie was also taken aback, he didn't expect Fujiwara Nobita and Kimura to make such a big gift, and the tone given by the translator next to him seemed to be the rhythm of kneeling, and he hurriedly helped the two of them up: "It's not a secret, it's not that our general manager is unwilling to accept the warm invitation of the two of you and your Kodansha, it's just that our general manager is currently holding a wedding in the UK, how can he go to Japan to hold a signing party at this time." ”
"Ahh
Yes, who gets married and has the leisure time to hold a book signing.
However, as soon as he thought of the death order given by the president, Fujiwara prayed again: "Yao-kun, please be sure to inform Huo Jun that we have sincerely invited him to come to Japan. ”
"This ...... Well, I'll send you a telegram to England to inform our general manager, and I can't guarantee whether he will say yes. Yao Wenjie saw that Fujiwara and Kimura almost knelt down, and after being entangled for a while, he also promised to help send a telegram.
"Thank you, thank you Yao Jun!"
Hearing that Yao Wenjie would help, Fujiwara Nobita and Kimura couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, as long as there was a glimmer of hope, neither of them would choose to give up.
