Chapter 694: Fruitful [Two More Requests for Subscription]
The progress of the work, which was expected to take a month to complete, was very fast, and Zhang Chu closed all the pages after saving the manuscript, and he planned to play the game for a while to relax.
The combination of work and rest is the right way, if you spend all day studying and writing books, the nerves are tense all the time and it is easy to have problems.
The game of chicken no longer appeals to him, and now he is playing a classic racing game GTA5.
I didn't have a chance to play it before, but now that I have the opportunity, I'm a little fascinated by this game, and it's more convenient to have a PC anyway.
After playing until three o'clock in the morning, Zhang Chu lay down on the bed in a daze.
Not staying up late on weekends is a desecration of the holidays!
The end of the year is getting closer and closer, and various entertainment media seem to be making full efforts to send news for the final performance sprint.
It is not very novel that several films in the Chinese New Year file fight each other, but the novelty is that the popular little king actually went to the campus of Yan University to audit the class!
If it is usual, some people must think that Chen Muyang is putting on a show, but the report emphasizes that the main thing to audit is the course in Zhang Chu's class, and netizens have a kind of psychology of secretly rubbing and watching the excitement.
These two definitely have an ulterior PY deal!
"Gay is gay, report it!"
"Why did Chen Muyang go to Yan University, what does he have to do with Zhang Chu?"
"I have an inexplicable premonition that the two of them are going to collaborate again, and I don't know which song will be released this time!"
"When I saw the two of them, I thought of "Wukong", and I look forward to collaborating on new songs!"
"I have to restrain myself, I can't just stand on CP"
"Zhang Chu's new book shouldn't have a song, after all, it's linked to the Beatles' song. ”
When netizens were discussing it in full swing, a piece of news quickly spread on the Internet!
[Anonymous user]: I have a friend from Xinghui Music, and she told me that last night Chen Muyang called the company's band overnight to seize the recording studio that originally belonged to a talent debuting singer, in order to record a new song written by Zhang Chu. It is unknown what the specific song is, but it is definitely a golden lineup, and everyone will know the truth of the news in a few days.
Originally, Zhihu was discussing Chen Muyang Yanda's audit above, but as soon as this anonymous user came out, the answer area was detonated, and this answer had a nose and eyes, and it looked very real!
Although this is a series of friends I have, with the news that broke on the Internet, everyone believes it a little.
After all, the only intersection between a singer and a writer can only be to write a new song!
……
"Hello?"
Zhang Chu connected the phone call from Ye Shumei in a daze, and he didn't want to open his eyes.
"Boss, just now Jin Ou of Xinghui Music called me to discuss the theme song of "Norwegian Wood", and you have reached an agreement?"
Ye Shumei's mood was a little bad, as the general manager of Zhang Chu's brokerage company, she had to know this kind of thing from the other party.
When she watched the news, she thought it was fake news, but she didn't expect that it was herself who was kept in the dark.
Zhang Chu patted his head, and he forgot what he said, it turned out to be this!
Yesterday, after listening to the audio file sent by Chen Muyang, I decided to let Chen Muyang sing the song of the same name, but I didn't expect to forget to notify Zhou Kang.
"Sister Ye, this is my negligence. There is really such a thing, I wrote a song, and then Chen Muyang sang quite well. Think about what kind of terms you should use to sign a contract with him. ”
That's what the boss is good about, and there's nothing wrong with being the shopkeeper.
Ye Shumei thought for a while and asked, "Then do we still use the same conditions as "Wukong"?"
"You can do it, I just have one request, I can't leak the content of the song in advance. ”
The song "Norwegian Wood" is suspected of being a big spoiler, and for the sake of secrecy, it must be released together.
"Okay, I'll try to talk. Boss, remember to let me know in advance if you have anything next time. ”
"No problem, no problem, it's just a temporary forget!" Zhang Chu agreed repeatedly.
Ye Shumei heard the hoarseness of Zhang Chu's voice, and she reminded: "The writers' annual meeting jointly organized by the Writers' Association and the General Administration of News and Publication has sent an invitation, just next Monday. ”
"It's time for the annual meeting so soon?"
"Yes, you're one of the most important guests at the annual meeting. If there are no surprises this year, you will win a few awards, so prepare your acceptance speech in the last two days!"
The annual meeting of writers is different from the rest of the awards, depending on the influence of the writer, the fans of the work and the sales of the book, which are all real and cannot be faked.
Therefore, Zhang Chu is very likely to win the award, he is a bumper year this year, and four of the top ten books on the annual book sales list so far belong to him, and even won the championship and runner-up!
The battle for the annual sales champion between "The Ghost Blows Out the Lantern: The Ancient City" and "The Da Vinci Code" has reached a white-hot stage, and the final half-month sprint will determine who can wear the crown.
"Ghost Blows the Lantern" was released more than half a year ahead of schedule, and the current number of physical books plus e-books has reached a terrifying 6.8 million copies, and now it can still sell 10,000 copies a day!
The Da Vinci Code was only released in October, but the attention and sales have set a new record, and now there are 6.1 million copies sold in the mainland, and the world has already exceeded 10 million, and is developing in the direction of 15 million copies.
The difference of 700,000 copies may seem like a huge gap, but it is actually not too big!
"The Da Vinci Code" is now stable in the top ten sales every day, with 70,000 or 80,000 more per day, and 40,000 or 50,000 less, and it may really be able to complete a shocking reversal in fifteen days.
His other work, "The Legend of Wukong", has only sold 4.1 million copies, which is an unattainable number for other authors, but it can only rank third on Zhang Chu's side.
The main reason for the low sales is that it has been serialized for free on Weibo for a long time, and although the golden sentences are frequent, readers feel that the overall story is not too attractive.
"Sou Shen Ji" ranked 10th on the annual book sales list with 3.5 million, this set of books is wonderful but also expensive, and the overall sales of 3.5 million copies are higher than "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" and "The Da Vinci Code" combined!
Whoever makes it have six books in a set, and they make a fortune in a muffled voice.
As for "Farewell My Concubine", it is inferior in sales, and the subject matter has not been liked by too many readers, as a modern modern love, it can sell nearly two million copies all rely on Zhang Chu's own influence.
If this book were to be distributed by a different author, it might be difficult to have 500,000 copies!
Fruitful and fruitful, the harvest is not small, Zhang Chu briefly reviewed it before he understood why he became a thorn in the side of others.
There is a book that deserves a big celebration from the publishing company if it is squeezed into the annual list, and he alone occupies four places, so he can't help but be jealous of his peers!
"Next year should be better, right?"
Although Zhang Chu had no specific plans, he also knew that the situation would definitely get better and better, and there would be no regression.
