Chapter 1039: Project Restart [Asking for Tickets and Subscriptions]
In the second half of the year, it is almost impossible to maintain such a high sales volume, and the international market has now surpassed the trend of selling so many books in China alone.
With the continuous improvement of Zhang Chu's popularity overseas and the dissemination of his works, the proportion of overseas market sales in his total sales has also increased, from a negligible 1% at the beginning, and now it seems to have reached more than 50%!
The Da Vinci Code catapulted him to become one of the world's most famous writers, and the subsequent Lord of the Rings trilogy stabilized the foundation laid by the former and opened up countless new markets.
If you wait for the release of "Life of Pi" and "The Da Vinci Code", the 50% sales proportion will even rush to 60% or even higher.
China is indeed a country with a large population, but it is still not very much compared to the rest of the world, especially foreign people are not used to reading online, and reading paper books is their daily life.
Gu Xinxue didn't know Zhang Chu's plans for a new book, of course he didn't want sales to decline at the end of the year, but fortunately, the popularity of the "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" series remained high, even if it was only published at a speed of one volume a month, it could barely maintain its popularity.
But what about after "Ghost Blows the Lamp"?
At that time, what kind of dazzling works did Zhang Chu have to come up with?
"Alas, this kid will definitely get lazier and lazier in the future, and it is impossible to be as a model worker like now. Gu Xinxue sighed, anyway, he made a lot of money with his decision to sign Zhang Chu, and he also gained the title of gold medal editor, no matter how much Zhang Chu writes in the future, anyway, he can't get worse and worse.
At this time, the colleague next to him suddenly patted him on the shoulder and said, "Old Gu, were you just reporting the good news to Zhang Chu?"
"Yes, you have to brush up on his presence in front of him!"
Now Gu Xinxue has obviously felt that Zhang Chu's relationship with him is relatively unfamiliar.
"Then you have to tell him that the next book should not be serialized on the Internet, if his readers have already read it on the Internet, who will buy the book. ”
Gu Xinxue spread his hands and said helplessly: "I can't control this, it must depend on his own ideas and the type of book." The ghost blows the lantern and is serialized on the Internet because it is relatively long, and it must be convenient for the film company to disseminate. You see, he didn't take "The Lord of the Rings" to the Internet for serialization. Reader preferences vary from place to place. ”
No matter where it is first published, it will inevitably attract a large number of readers.
Today, unlike in the past, each of Zhang Chu's works must have been carefully considered, and it will not be easy to decide where to send it.
"Well, that's the truth. I think that if he comes out directly, our company's performance will definitely grow. In previous years, they couldn't dig up the author, but this year after they heard that I was the editor of Nanhai Publishing Company, they joined directly, saying that it was good to enjoy the shade with their backs to the big trees!"
Not everyone thinks that Zhang Chu will occupy the publicity resources of the publishing company, in fact, after a detailed understanding, you will understand that Nanhai has not invested too much at all, and he is competitive enough.
Gu Xinxue has also signed a lot of writers now, so after he got busy, he rarely had anything to contact Zhang Chu again, and now he doesn't know what he will write later, but the relationship between Blair and Zhang Chu at Random House is getting better and better.
……
There are two flowers, one on each branch.
Zhang Chu put the phone back in front of the laptop, he was still very satisfied with the data given by Nanhai Publishing Company, with a drag oil bottle can sell so well, in the second half of the year, after "Ghost Blows the Lamp" comes out, I don't know if "The Silence of the Lambs" will also become a drag oil bottle.
In fact, his readers are not the kind of people who will refuse to be thrilled, maybe many people will fall into the CP of a perverted murderer and a trainee female agent, and when the time comes, it is estimated that it will increase a lot of female readers by promoting it in this direction.
According to the opinion of the previous life, in fact, the character of Hannibal has left a deep impression on many Chinese people, proving that it actually has the potential to sell well in this country!
"Hurry up and finish the recording of the show tomorrow, and then take the high-speed train home, and then have an alternative double opening. ”
Itchy hands are not a disease, they can be really bad!
Obviously, I feel very rationally in my heart that I should press it, but I can't suppress it, and I'm thinking about the plot in it when it's okay.
Anyway, it's okay to stay at home during the summer vacation, and with his code word speed, double opening is not particularly difficult, so he compromised himself.
As soon as he thought of being able to write a new book, Zhang Chu was very excited, and he even had the energy to write old books!
Lines of text appear in the ord document, and Hu Bayi and they have gone through many adventures.
Just as he was engaged, there was a banging knock on the door.
Zhang Chu looked out of the door through the cat's eye with a little caution, if it was a stranger, he didn't plan to open the door, but fortunately it was his agent who was standing outside.
"Uncle Zhou, how much is this, is there anything else?"
Zhou Kang, who was holding his mobile phone, replied helplessly: "No way, this matter is what Mr. Ye instructed me to tell you immediately." ”
After closing the door, Zhang Chu returned to the sofa and sat down, "What's the matter?"
"Didn't Yida have plans to build a theme park before? But it was stranded for various reasons. Zhou Kang explained: "Now due to the high box office of "Ghost Blowing Lantern: The Essence of the Ancient City" around the world, they have now decided to restart the amusement park project, intending to build one in the suburbs of developed cities on the east coast to see the effect. ”
"It's really idle to stranded for a while and restart for a while. ”
Zhang Chu complained angrily, not knowing what Yida Group was going to do.
"They plan to ask you to write out the content that is suitable for making a theme park amusement, and now they need to come up with a feasibility report, Halloween will not be in time for Halloween this year, and see if Halloween can not be soft opened next year. ”
Zhang Chu thought about it seriously, "If they really plan to do it, the scale must be very large, don't make it a simple haunted house, it will be an insult to the ghost blowing lamp project." First of all, of course, it is best to restore the relevant scenes, which must be done by special designers and stylists, so as not to make it too inferior and cheap. I've thought about this before, and it's best to combine the elements of haunted houses, escape rooms, mazes, tomb hunts, quality development and real interaction, so that visitors can interact and surprise those who have seen it. ”
Zhou Kang kept nodding, "Yes, yes, you write down your thoughts, and then get out the scenes involved earlier, let's find them from the content of the first three volumes, and see which ones are suitable for amusement park projects." It's a big deal for them to leave the venue empty and leave some for later projects. ”
"You said it lightly, I'm not a planner, where do you know what scene is suitable for an amusement park. ”
"Don't worry, what you wrote is just referring to the candidate opinions, Yida will not adopt all of them, they have their own team doing this thing, maybe they will have to call you over to guide and guide when the time comes." ”
In addition to writing a book, Zhang Chu has another task on his shoulders, and the whole person is not good!
