Chapter 202: The Uncrowned King (Three Watches)

【Chinese Network】, to provide you with wonderful reading.

Multiple channels were opened for reading at the same time, and the readers who had been waiting for a long time finally had the opportunity to read, so they didn't care about the ten yuan, just rushed in and paid to read!

Whether it is a student party or an office worker, there is a break time at noon, so this makes the beginning of "Life of Pi" seem particularly dreamy.

In just 60 minutes, more than 20,000 people paid from 13 readers on the whole network who listed "Youth Pi"!

"This looks like a good result. ”

Zhang Chu looked at the statistics and was speechless, judging from the discussion on the Internet, he knew that the electronic version of this book was estimated to sell well, but he never expected it to be so good!

Just compare his previous works horizontally, not to mention the "Journey to the West Diary" released on October 1, which is the book sales champion of the National Day Golden Week.

As a result, "Journey to the West Diary" did not sell 20,000 electronic copies of the book in one hour, and even sold 23,000 copies in a whole day, of which Weibo Reading accounted for 14,000 copies!

Today's "Life of Pi" is in full bloom, and no channel sells extraordinary books, and everyone is relatively average.

Of course, Zhang Chu also knows that electronic sales are so high, just because there is no other choice, either read the electronic version or don't read it, readers can only accept their fate.

Even some readers who used to spend five yuan to read a book on the Chinese writer's website also bought an electronic version for the sake of convenience and support the author by the way.

After all, the current electronic version of the book is more convenient, you can open the mobile app or website to read, so that you don't have to enter the personal center with the writer online, and enter it from the purchase record.

What's more, the reading experience of the two sides is very different, where will the writer's network consider those things, so that you have something to watch!

……

Life of Pi's phenomenal sales is no secret in the industry, and there are even a lot of idle and bored people who post to track its sales, updating the sum of all channels every half hour.

In 1 hour, 20,000 copies were broken!

3 hours, 30,000 copies!

6 hours, 40,000 copies!

By exactly 12 hours in the early hours of the morning, the electronic sales of Life of Pi had reached a staggering 57,000 copies, almost setting a new high in the era of e-reading!

Of course, this figure is only a rough calculation, after all, the sales volume of each channel may not be directly published on the page of the book, and only insiders can get the accurate figure.

But even so, whether it is an online writer, a best-selling author, or a serious literary writer, they are all amazed by this horrific number of downloads.

Sold almost 60,000 copies in 12 hours!

If you give it 24 hours, won't it sell 70,000 or 80,000 copies?

In the group of online writers, a group of big gods and small gods couldn't help but sigh for a long time, this little brother's money-grabbing speed is definitely top-notch!

"Such an expensive e-book, he can sell 60,000 a day, and the highest first order of our top god is so much, right?"

"Tut, I watched him become famous little by little, he has walked the road of others for several years or even ten years in half a year!"

"Otherwise, we would have gone to write the entity, and the network is so strict. ”

"Haha, fox, it's a way out for you to write the entity, don't forget Gou Fugui!"

"It's too treacherous for you to force you to encourage me to go, and then take away my recommendation. ”

"Zhang Chu's hand speed is not slower than ours, he almost has one book a month, and one book is more than 100,000 or 200,000 words. Some of us have handicap parties, and if we can update 70,000 or 80,000 words a month, it can be regarded as burning high incense. ”

"Ahh

This group of people are all night owls, and they slowly moved the topic away from Zhang Chu while laughing and joking.

Not every writer will always pay attention to the movement on the Internet, and many people are still used to reading news newspapers every day.

So, when the message of "Life of Pi" was printed on the freshly baked newspapers, they couldn't calm down!

"China Youth Daily": The sales of Youth Pie exceeded 50,000 in 12 hours, creating a new record!

"Beijing News": With the advent of the era of e-reading, Zhang Chu's new work opened the electronic paid reading download in advance at the request of netizens, and collected nearly 600,000 yuan in half a day, worthy of the name of the king of gold absorption!

Yenching Morning Post: Did you watch "Life of Pi" today?

"Lianhe Zaobao": Genius writer Zhang Chu set a personal record yesterday and is expected to become the top seller in the sales list with electronic sales!

Almost all newspapers in various places have relevant reports, such as Guangming Daily, Southern Metropolis Daily, Global Times, Tianfu Morning Post, Chutian Metropolis Daily and other newspapers in the literary and artistic section of the newspaper.

People have always said that the era of e-reading has arrived, but there is a lack of a phenomenal work, and now "Life of Pi" fills this gap and becomes a literary work that can break through the sky with e-reading alone!

Yes, it is not the Internet, it belongs to the category of popular literature.

The Uncrowned King of Literature: October 14 Sales Statistics

When Zhang Chu saw the headline of today's news on the official website of the General Administration of the People's Republic of China, his heart was still beating at an accelerated pace.

Every day the book sales announced here will have a corresponding title, and before Zhang Chu only put "Journey to the West Diary" on the title when he won the Golden Week sales crown.

But this time, "Life of Pi" actually appeared there directly, and it was crowned the title of the uncrowned king!

"Yesterday's sales list was affected by working days, and the general decline was serious, and only a few works achieved a reverse decline, among which Zhang Chu's top three works were affected by new books, and all returned to the TOP200 position.

The No. 1 "Thousand Machines 5: The Final Battle" fell by 21,000 copies from the day before yesterday, with a total of 49,000 copies sold yesterday.

It is worth mentioning that yesterday, "Life of Pi's Fantasy Drifting" officially opened electronic paid reading, and a total of 59,000 copies were sold in 12 hours, but because the physical book has not yet been released, it has not been included in the list. ”

Compared with the previous estimate of 57,000 copies, the official has now directly raised the accurate sales volume of 2,000 copies!

If it weren't for the list restrictions, the first place now would be "Youth Pi", not the book "Thousand Machines Change 5".

Many netizens are sighing, this is obviously making history, but it failed to enter the list, if it enters the list, it is estimated that it will become the first book to reach the top only by electronic sales since the statistical sales list!

"This rule is long overdue!"

Zhang Chu couldn't help but complain and said, but this does not prevent it from leaving its own unique mark in the history of Chinese literature, after all, this is the first work in history to reach the top of pure e-book sales.
