Chapter Forty-Seven: The Response Was Good
Out of the Jinhua Building, Bu took the two of them to a nearby food stall for night tea.
Bu generally likes to drink, and after three glasses of wine, Bu generally talks more.
In this case, Ji Zhang and the others decisively came up with some unknown news.
It turns out that the Bu family is a branch of the local dark force gang in Haojing Ao, and its strength cannot be underestimated.
In addition, the family business has also made great achievements in port trade.
Originally, according to the general routine, he should be the prince and the rich second generation, but he himself has had no interest in business since he was a child.
But he is very fond of literature, and for this reason, he often had conflicts with his family when he was a child.
When he grew up, he worked patiently in the company for a few years, and his family thought that he was going to help his family well.
But he didn't expect him to sneak away and founded the Blue House Publishing House alone.
This is infuriating to the family! The family has imposed an economic blockade on him.
Under such circumstances, he reluctantly compromised, and after arguing with his family, the family agreed to give him relevant funds and personal connections and other support.
But correspondingly, the family gave him three years, and if he made a name for himself within three years, he would do what he wanted, and if he couldn't, he would go home honestly to inherit the family business.
It's been more than a year since it opened, and it's clear that he's not succeeding yet.
The current publishing house is not running well, and it has always been unable to make ends meet, and it is all dependent on family support.
And the reason why he went to the casino was because he was too melancholy, so he went to dispel it.
After listening to what Bu said in general, Ji Zhang and the others were suddenly a little speechless, look at this difference, it can't be compared!
Relieved, it was getting late, Ji Zhang and the two of them supported Bu General and returned to his residence.
The next day, Meng Yi and Tong Sheng went out early in the morning to play. And Ji Zhang and the two hurried to the Blue House Publishing House,
Because today is the first launch of the global newspaper "Oriental Fantasy Adventure".
Ahem, to be more precise: test the waters.
Not to mention, Bu generally took a lot of effort in this matter.
Today, the contents of the book "Oriental Fantasy Adventure" can be found in the main novels and newspaper columns in Heung Kong and Hao Jing Macao.
When the time came, a copy of the just-released "Haojiang Daily" was brought to Ji and Zhang.
On the front page of the page, "Oriental Fantasy Adventure" was prominently printed, author: night watchman, publisher: Blue Mansion.
Zhang Mingyang stroked the freshly baked newspaper, which still exuded the scent of ink.
"In this era, my masterpiece is still a little excited. Zhang Mingyang thought in his heart.
Bu looked at the newspaper, patted Zhang Mingyang's shoulder and said, "It depends on the reaction after that." ”
Zhang Mingyang is very confident, the novel he wrote, with a novel theme, also draws on related successful world famous novels, is very readable, and will definitely be a hit in the end.
As the minutes ticked by, several people sat quietly in the office, as if waiting for something.
Nine o'clock, half past nine, ten o'clock.
"Jingle ......"
A landline placed in front of them rang.
"It's coming. ”
It was their first thought.
"Hey, hello, this is Blue House Publishing House, is there anything I can do to help you?"
Cheese whispered at the front desk.
"Yes, yes, you are the first, get it for free...... Okay, no problem......"
When she put it on the phone, Bu Shi hurriedly asked, "How is it?"
Cheese excitedly said: "It was a reader who called us, and he said that "Oriental Fantasy Adventure" was very good, and he wanted to read it in advance. ”
There was a cheer in the office in an instant, and it was very effective.
"What is Early View?"
In fact, in the published newspaper, the contact information of the Blue House Publishing House is written at the end.
And it is also written: read the story in advance, the first 1,000 copies, limited to one per person, and the top 50 can be sent for free to get the book "Oriental Fantasy Adventure".
It's similar to the video website in the previous life.
However, this time, due to time reasons, I can only print 1,000 copies as a test of the waters, and then reprint it after looking at the market situation.
It's also a kind of hunger marketing.
As soon as a phone call fell, "Jingle bell." The phone rang again.
"Jingle bells, jingle bells, ......"
All of a sudden, the phones of the entire Blue House Publishing House rang.
"Hello, we are the Blue House Publishing House...... "Oriental Fantasy Adventure..... It's ......"
The sound of answering the phone is one after another.
Zhang Mingyang's heart must be stable.
Seeing this situation, Bu was also excited, and immediately shouted loudly: "Dakoujing, contact me, and then immediately rush to print 10,000 copies." ”
Okoujing: "Okay, boss. ”
The entire Blue House Publishing House became busy in an instant, which was something Bu had never seen before.
Seeing that the overall situation was settled, Zhang Mingyang said to Bu General: "Seeing that you are so busy here, let's not bother, come back in the evening!"
Zhang Mingyang hurriedly slipped away, otherwise he was afraid that Bu would catch the strong man in a while.
Bu is very busy now, waving his hand and saying, "Go ahead!"
Ji Zhang and the others hurriedly ran out, they hadn't eaten yet, and they were a little hungry.
I found a restaurant to eat some, and then the two of them went for a stroll.
The two of them enjoyed the scenery they hadn't seen the day before.
Later, the two returned to the Blue House Publishing House.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw all the staff lying on their workstations, looking loveless.
When I walked to the office, I saw that Bu was also resting on a chair at the moment.
As soon as the two of them came in, Bu generally poured bitter water: "You two brothers are good, shake your ass and leave, we are busy today, I don't know how many calls we answered, even my boss finally went into battle in person." ”
Zhang Mingyang smiled: "Those who can work hard, and they work hard." ”
Bu General continued: "The first batch of 1,000 books that were urgently ordered last night were all booked today, and we recorded that they were all customers from Heung Kong and Hao Jing O, and many bookstores also called to inquire. ”
"The response to our book has been very good, and I have contacted a number of capable major publishers and decided to publish it jointly, and the operation of the newspaper series has also been put on the agenda. ”
Zhang Mingyang reminded: "According to the current popularity, foreign language versions may be needed at that time, and this book is only the first story, we can lower the price, and the big one will follow." ”
Bu nodded approvingly: "You're right, I'll arrange it as soon as possible." ”
Ji Lianzhong, who was on the side, listened to the conversation between Bu General and Zhang Mingyang, and a question suddenly appeared in his mind.
He said, "How long will it take for the books to reach the first batch of people?"
Bu was stunned and said, "About three or five days!"
"What? Three or five days? This is too inefficient, isn't it?" Zhang Mingyang exclaimed.
This is much slower than the express delivery in the previous life, and it is only two places, Xiangjiang and Haojingao, the distance is still so close.
"This is definitely not possible, in order to have a better experience, take advantage of this popularity, and maximize our brand as soon as possible, we must increase the delivery time. Zhang Mingyang said.
Bu said: "But the speed of the shipment here is like this, do you have any good ideas?"
"It's a pity that there is no express delivery in this era!" Zhang Mingyang whispered to Ji Lianzhong.
Ji Lianzhong didn't speak, just looked at him with a smile, and then said, "Did you forget something?"
Zhang Mingyang saw Ji Lianzhong say this, and he was a little puzzled.
Ji Lianzhong said: "Since there is no express delivery, why don't we create one ourselves?"
Zhang Mingyang's eyes lit up, yes! Why don't I create one myself?
