Chapter 15: This Boy Is Going to Get Rich!

Just when Guo Dalu was about to accompany Wang Xiaolu to go out to play during the summer vacation, the Yellow River Literature and Art Publishing House had already begun to prepare for the physical sale of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" at this time. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The book Condor was published slowly on the website by the publishers, and it took almost a month for more than a dozen chapters to be issued.

In fact, the number of words in these ten chapters is actually quite a lot, almost 300,000 words, compared with many slow serialized works on the Internet today, the release speed of this novel has been called a god.

It's rare for the world's online serialized works to explode so quickly, most of them are updated every two or three days, and some are even updated only once a week or two.

A desperate explosion like the book Condor is extremely rare in the entire history of online novel serialization, but it also fully mobilizes the great enthusiasm of online readers.

For these readers, the authors who can keep one update a day are already conscientious authors, and if they can do two changes a day, it will definitely be an unexpected joy.

What if someone can do three or four watches a day?

Are you kidding?

How could anyone do it?

Since the beginning of the online novel serialization until now, no one has exploded so crazy!

But now this "Legend of the Condor Heroes" has done it.

People inside the publishing house and Guo Dalu all know that this book has actually been completed a long time ago, but the majority of readers don't know.

They all thought that the book was just a lot of manuscripts.

As a result, readers are enjoying it, website traffic has increased, and the fame of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is getting bigger and bigger, new readers join every day, and readers leave messages in the book review area every moment to sigh and praise the author, and there are constantly readers who give large rewards to this work that has been put on the shelves.

The income from the online subscription and tipping of this book alone has already cost a lot of money.

But this author account was actually registered by an employee of the publishing house, and it was not directly related to Guo Dalu that it was not until Wang Xiaolu reminded Guo Dalu that Guo Dalu asked Jiang Dongliu about the issue of network income.

"Dalu, this thing was something we didn't expect, I didn't expect it to be so good on the Internet!"

After Jiang Dongliu received Guo Dalu's call, he was very embarrassed and said: "All the online income of this work must be yours, our publishing house is only responsible for promotion, our income is mainly in the publication of physical books, and we have no reason to intercept the income on the Internet." ”

He said to Guo Dalu: "After all, we only have the right to publish and publicize!"

Guo Dalu asked, "How much money does online income have now?"

Jiang Dongliu hesitated on the other end of the phone, and said to Guo Dalu: "I don't know the specific amount, you wait for me for a while, I'll ask Xiao Liu, who is in charge of releasing the work." ”

His phone was not turned off, he kept the call and walked to a nearby office, where his footsteps and breathing could be clearly heard from the phone.

After a while, it seemed that Jiang Dongliu asked a woman softly, and after a while, an exclamation suddenly sounded, ", so many?"

Guo Dalu heard it clearly, and this exclamation came from Jiang Dongliu.

Jiang Dongliu is a person, Guo Dalu still knows better, he speaks slowly and softly, and he has almost never seen him lose his attitude, but now he listens to the tone as if he was frightened by some number, and he couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.

"The Great Road!"

Jiang Dongliu's breathing voice on the other end of the phone was a little rough, "Your book earns a bit a lot online." ”

Guo Dalu's heart itched when he heard this, and asked, "How many?"

Jiang Dongliu said: "More than 179,000!"

"it!"

Hearing this number, Guo Dalu was also a little uncalm, "So much?"

Jiang Dongliu said: "This is still the rest of the money split with the website! And the income will only be higher in the future!"

He said to Guo Dalu: "This fee will be sent out by the website the day after tomorrow, you can give me a bank card number directly, and I will ask our publishing house to directly let the website call your card." ”

Guo Dalu grinned: "What's so embarrassing?"

Jiang Dongliu said: "This is what you deserve." ”

Guo Dalu said: "Oh, why are you embarrassed to report it to you? We didn't say anything about network income in our contract!"

He said embarrassed, but he already had an extra bank card in his hand, "Listen, I'll read the bank card number to you!"

Jiang Dongliu was silent on the other end of the phone for a while, "Dalu, can you not be so panting when you speak?"

Guo Dalu said: "Yes!"

He then said, "Do you believe it?"

Jiang Dongliu: "......"

Anyway, on the third day, it was originally 170,000 yuan, but when it came to the payment, it had become 180,000 yuan, and the manuscript fee had been transferred to Guo Dalu's bank card.

At the same time as the first wave of manuscript fees arrived, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", which was being serialized on the Internet, suddenly stopped serialization when it reached the fifteenth chapter of "Shenlong Swinging Tail".

The website has placed an advertisement in the latest chapter of this book: this book will be sold at the end of the month, and the physical book will be suspended online, parentheses, in fact, this book is already a finished work, and I hope you will support the physical book, buy the physical book, and give exquisite small gifts, first come, first served!

", it's already finished, no wonder it's updated so quickly!"

The online book review area is boiling.

"Brothers, do you want to buy physical books?"

"I have to buy it!"

"This book has the value of buying a physical body!"

"Yes, you have to buy it, the key physical book is over, can you not buy it?

"Since watching the Condor Shooting, the old man feels like chewing wax when he reads all the martial arts novels nowadays, and I feel that I have been deeply infatuated with my little Huang Rong!"

"What is your little Huang Rong? it's obviously my little Huang Rong!"

"I don't care if you fight for Huang Rong, I just want my brother Jing!"

", surprise the female reader!

……

…………

In the midst of the buzz from these readers, the physical book of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" began to be sold.

At present, physical book sales are divided into two channels, one is through physical bookstores, and the other is online direct sales.

As a veteran enterprise, the Yellow River Literature and Art Publishing House will naturally not ignore these two channels.

The actual printing of this novel was followed by Guo Dalu's suggestion, and the set was divided into four volumes, divided into a regular version and a hardcover version.

The regular version is priced at eight yuan per volume, and a set of four books is thirty-two yuan together, which is not expensive at all.

The hardcover edition is priced at 12 yuan per volume, and the price of the four volumes together is 48 yuan, which is actually far lower than other novels of the same genre.

Originally, Jiang Dongliu suggested raising the price a little, but Guo Dalu opposed it.

Although Guo Dalu does not know much about the book market, he knows that most of the readers on the Internet today are young people, and if the price is too high, I am afraid that he will lose a large part of the potential readers, but it is better to make small profits and sell quickly.

Jiang Dongliu also felt reasonable, and after suggesting to the president Wang Qinglong, he would take Guo Dalu's proposal.

On the day of the book's release, Jiang Dongliu originally wanted to call Guo Dalu to go to the Southern Magic Capital to sign and sell books, so as to increase his popularity, but Guo Dalu refused.

According to Guo Dalu, he just makes money silently, and he is exempt from appearing, he is a writer and not a star, so he engages in that gimmick and does bird feathers!

Jiang Dongliu was helpless and didn't dare to force it, so he could only follow him.

Yellow River Literature and Art Publishing House.

President Wang Qinglong was sitting in the office and reading a book, which was the hardcover version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

Today is the day of the physical book release, although he knows that the sales of this book will be very good, but after all, this "very good" is only in the imagination, and no one dares to guarantee what will happen until the moment it really enters the market.

Many online fire books have suffered failures when they were published entities, and Wang Qinglong does not dare to guarantee that Guo Dalu's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" will definitely sell well.

He was originally very apprehensive in his heart, but in the process of flipping through the book Condor Shooting, he gradually became addicted to it and slowly forgot everything outside.

Wang Qinglong has actually read this book of Condor Shooting, but when he reads it again at this time, he is still addicted to it.

There is such a magic in this book, which makes people bored of reading it again and again, but the more they read, the more they feel it.

"Bang Bang Bang"

There was a knock on the door.

Wang Qinglong, who was reading a book with relish, put down the book very unwillingly, "Come in!"

It wasn't until he put the book down that he remembered what day it was, and couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself, "I even forgot my work when I read the book!"

Jiang Dongliu and He Chunsheng, two veterans of the publishing house, walked into the office at the same time.

"President!"

Jiang Dongliu looked excited, "The sales are even hotter than expected, and all major physical bookstores have feedback, and the first 100,000 copies are sold out!"

Wang Qinglong looked at He Chunsheng, "How about online sales?"

Wang Qinglong's chubby face was covered with sweat, and his face was flushed with excitement, "Online sales are more popular than physical stores, and 80,000 sets have been sold in just one hour after they were put on sale! Now three hours have passed, and a total of 320,000 sets have been sold, and now sales have begun to decline." ”

He said to Wang Qinglong: "President, the inventory is no longer enough!"

When the printing began, Wang Qinglong ordered a print run of 300,000 copies, which was actually the largest printing in the past.

Many employees in the publishing house felt that the first printing was too much to digest, but Wang Qinglong overrode public opinion and forcibly printed 300,000 copies, which caused many discussions among the publishing house employees, and they all felt that Wang Qinglong was too optimistic.

But now that 300,000 yuan has been sold out in one day, even if Wang Qinglong has great expectations for this book, after this data comes out, he still feels a little incredible.

Wang Qinglong took a deep breath, "Tell the printing house to urgently print one million copies!"

He looked at Jiang Dongliu, "Call and tell Guo Dalu that this kid is going to get rich!"
