Chapter Ninety-Six: The Sale of Terror
But, there is a hairy use!
Who cares about this kind of powerless apology, belated salvation?
When the accident happened, the news was earth-shattering, and all the media rushed to report it.
But when it comes to apologizing, the media doesn't bother to explain it to you, or even bother to spread the information.
is like the current "Martial Arts Story", no matter how hard Zhu Zhengting tries his best to explain, no netizens are willing to deal with him.
Everyone's impression of "Martial Arts Story" is still only two points.
The first point: "Liancheng Jue" is very good.
The second point: The author of "Liancheng Jue" was suppressed and deducted the manuscript fee.
Zhu Zhengting picked up the report file.
The dazzling words are enough to blind the eyes of other magazines.
From the initial 30,000 or 40,000 subscriptions, to the current 150,000 subscriptions......
Yes, 150,000 subscriptions!
A number that stunned all the magazines.
A number that makes all advertisers go crazy.
Each chapter of "Liancheng Jue" is more exciting than the last, and each chapter, the plot is so wonderful that it is unpredictable, and the pits dug before are just rightly filled.
Therefore, after the first two or three chapters of the foreshadowing period, the popularity of the whole book becomes more and more obvious.
Almost every time a supplement is issued, sales increase by a few thousand, more than all the sales of some small magazines.
And what's even more terrifying is that with the increase in the popularity of this book, the further back it goes, the more sales will increase in each issue, and by the time of the eleventh issue, the subscription sales have directly increased by more than 50,000.
You must know that the sales of "Martial Arts Story" at the beginning were only thirty or forty thousand!
According to his own informant, Cheng Xiong smoked a smoky cigarette in the office for an afternoon after learning about the sales of "Martial Arts Story" and did not even say a word.
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhengting regretted it more and more.
Cheng Xiong was blind before, which caused "Martial Arts" to not befriend Lin Mu at the first time and persuade him to change his chess, which is okay.
But what about yourself!
After getting this peerless jade, I also knew the goods, but at the last moment, because I think about it now, P forced Lin Mu away with the pride that he didn't have!
In the past few days, the magazine's phone calls have been almost blown up, and almost every call is to ask for a subscription to the next finale of "Liancheng Jue"!
Yes, what readers said they wanted to subscribe to is the finale of "Connecting Cities"!
And not what the next issue of "Martial Arts Story".
Subscriptions increase, of course, a good thing.
But when the staff on the phone recommends a half-year subscription or a full-year subscription to the other party, which can be a lot cheaper, what do readers say?
"Less nonsense!
"Sister's annoyance! I'll order the next issue after all that, and you always recommend a hammer!"
"Labor and management are just for "Liancheng Jue", for a page of books! What are you doing with me blindly!"
"It's still half a year!Phew, just a broken magazine like you, if it weren't for "Liancheng Jue", the ghost would order it!"
"Everyone has switched to "Story Club" for every page of the book, and the poem "Chivalrous Journey" makes my blood boil, who wants to read those J8 things you wrote!"
"Sister, if I book for half a year, you will accompany me to eat a small meal, drink a little wine, and then open a small house to fight the landlord. What? Scold me for being a hooligan? Fuck it, I've never been insulted like this by 'Crazy Salted Fish 2'! If you don't open the room, you and I recommend a hair, it's really not good, it's okay to send a photo to come and masturbate, hey, hey, fuck, what's hanging! What quality! What attitude......
……
In short, there were a lot of phone calls in the coming year, but almost all of them were said, and they only ordered the next issue.
As for the future?
There is no more......
Telephone calls and online subscriptions come and go very often, and the staff of the Reader Answering Department have been working from almost five or six o'clock in the morning until eleven or twelve o'clock in the evening, eighteen hours a day!
If he hadn't announced that he would have given them two days' wages a day, I'm afraid they would have resigned a long time ago!
Roughly calculated, only the number of new subscriptions so far, as well as the fluctuation chart of new subscriptions in each chapter, the last issue of "Liancheng Jue" is very likely to increase to 200,000!
Two hundred thousand!
Zhu Zhengting couldn't think of a number before, and it was 200,000 when he didn't increase the area of the magazine laying much!
It has already competed with the number of subscriptions to the magazine boss "Story Club"!
"Martial Arts" next to it, after the battle of "Seven Spells of the Wind and Wild", the subscription once dropped to twenty or thirty thousand, if it wasn't for the new heavyweight celebrity to save the scene, it would have become a dog on the street long ago.
The opponent who can only look up to at an early date is currently in front of him, so pitiful, and his own sales, unconsciously, have increased to the point where he can compete with the industry boss.
However, the more this is the case, the more chilled Zhu Zhengting becomes.
These days, with the increase in magazine sales, countless advertisers have come to pull relationships with themselves and ask for advertising space as brothers and sisters.
However, when I realized the importance of "Liancheng Jue" and tested these advertisers whether they would cooperate with them in the future, those "brothers" who were good to me in the last time immediately changed their faces and directly pushed it under various excuses.
Obviously, these people are also aware of the aftermath of "Martial Arts Story", and they just want to maximize the benefits of the advertisements they want to advertise when "Liancheng Jue" is still serialized.
All have such an idea, so that "Martial Arts Story", until now, has not finalized the contract for the next issue of advertising space, which is unimaginable for a magazine.
Everyone is not optimistic about the future of "Martial Arts Story", and even Zhu Zhengting is not optimistic about it now.
Just imagine, in the next issue, after "Martial Arts Story" reached its peak, after being shocked by countless people, the next issue returned to the original sales of 30,000 or 40,000, or even lower.
What will advertisers think?
What will readers think?
What will industry peers think?
This is not as simple as restoring the old situation, such a big landing will make everyone lose confidence in "Martial Arts Story", and the magazine can only save this reputation unless it uses another novel that is not inferior to "Liancheng Jue".
However, since the occurrence of the "one-page book deduction incident", most authors who have other ways to make money have long stopped taking the initiative to contact the magazine.
Although he didn't refuse it openly, he knew the meaning of the words without saying it.
Just contacted several well-known authors in the industry, Zhu Zhengting said dryly, coupled with the generous manuscript fee conditions, finally determined the cooperation of several manuscripts.
But it's just an ordinary short story!
When, a small short story can also make him, the head of the big club, come out!
This is no longer a problem of the dog, but the day of the dog......
