Lonely Monkey

God doesn't save anyone, only you can save you.

If you die, you can't change anything, but as long as you live, you can change everything.

It is true that relying on the mountains and mountains and relying on everyone to fall, only relying on oneself is the best.

It is true that only living people can change the world, and the Monkey King in the novel is a hero, a great hero, but few people can understand the loneliness of heroes.

"For me, any place is home. But some people put their home in a certain part of the world, so they can't find it, and they die on the road. ”

"You're wrong. I'm not forgetting everything, I'm nothing. ”

"You think you have a lot of paths to choose from, but there are so many invisible walls around you that you only have one way to go. ”

Sometimes it's really like this, it's not that you forget everything, but you really have nothing, and that monkey is a hero, but he's also a lone monkey!

There was no other way out for the monkey, only one way out of the monkey.

This article at least increased the sales of "The Legend of Wukong" in the early stage.

On the first day, with the help of the hot Huayi publicity, Locke, a rookie writer, sold 12,000 copies of "The Legend of Wukong".

""The Legend of Wukong" is so good, my baby has listened to it more than a dozen times and is clamoring for me to tell him. ”

"yes, don't talk about babies. When I talked about this Wukong biography, my husband's ears were pricked up. ”

"My family ordered "Story Club", and I haven't read the Wukong biography you are talking about. Is it as good as you say?"

"Upstairs, it's true, you can change the magazine.

Take my house, for example. My husband is busy with work, and the baby is very unfamiliar with him, so he doesn't let him hold it. Recently, I asked my husband to tell her about "The Legend of Wukong", and now I am jealous of the good relationship between father and daughter. "Naturally, there are also people who show up to say it.

"Is it really that good? Then I'm going to have to buy a copy and try it." ”

"Buy it, buy it, so many of us won't lie to you. ”

Soon, the story of "The Legend of Wukong" became the most mentioned word by readers.

When a bored reader sent the story of Wukong's biography to the Internet, it immediately attracted the attention of a large number of potential book fans. Naturally, another wave of book reviews followed. And the praise rate has reached 100%.

As the so-called gold and silver cups are not as good as consumers' reputation, under this one-sided word-of-mouth, the sales of "The Legend of Wukong" ushered in a sudden explosion the next day.

Xinhua Publishing House, that is, Huayi, used his connections to help Locke publish "The Legend of Wukong".

"How are the books selling in this issue?"

Xiao Xiuxing looked at the sample version of the new issue of the book, and asked the employee opposite casually.

"I was about to report to you that all the 50,000 copies of the first printing of this "Legend of Wukong" have been pre-ordered. The sales department just called to ask if it was printed. ”

Although the employee tried his best to create a good image in front of his boss, the corners of his mouth and the raised eyebrows showed his excitement.

"Bang" The sample in Xiao Xiuxing's hand fell on the table.

"Reservations?50,000 copies?"

It's not that he doesn't cultivate enough, but things are too unexpected. Generally speaking, the sales of "The Legend of Wukong" are estimated at 40,000 copies. The first print is the final sale, and sometimes there is a surplus.

Originally, he also agreed to Huayi's request to help publish the work "The Legend of Wukong", which may be a hot topic, and he didn't report any hope and just rubbed the topic to sell, anyway, Huayi paid for it......

Bookings alone now exceed the estimated total sales. How can you not leave him dumbfounded.

"Yes, 50,000 copies, just after they were printed, they were pulled away, and there was not a single piece of paper left. The employee exaggerated.

"I'm here to ask the editor-in-chief whether to print it or not, and how many copies to print. ”

"Add 50,000 first, no, add 100,000 copies ......"

Although Xiao Xiuxing had already overestimated the role of "The Legend of Wukong", he printed another 100,000 copies. The total print run of this issue reached 150,000 copies. That's more than three times as much as before. In his mind, this data is still a bit risky.

But the facts tell him that this data is not risky, but too conservative.

The 150,000 copies sold out in just five days, and the purchase orders flew like snowflakes. Looking at these orders, Xiao Xiuxing was painful and happy.

He hurriedly contacted the printing house to work overtime to reprint. In the end, a total of 210,000 copies were sold on the last day. Sales are more than five times higher than before.

This figure not only made Xinhua Publishing House unbelievable, but even other publishing houses thought that the statistics were wrong or that Xinhua Publishing House was maliciously hyping up.

When they repeatedly confirmed that this number was true, they were all stunned. Some of the quick ones immediately arranged for someone to investigate the cause of the matter.

Most readers bought it because of the song "Wukong", but I didn't expect "The Legend of Wukong" to be really good-looking!

When everyone thought that the pace of "The Legend of Wukong" ended here. As soon as the sales of the third phase came out, countless people were dumbfounded.

The hot sales of the second batch and the word-of-mouth of "The Legend of Wukong" directly pushed the sales of the third batch to a height of 470,000 copies.

470,000 copies, this data means different things to different people. Of course, Xinhua Publishing House was jubilant, and the editor-in-chief waved his hand, and everyone had a bonus.

And for other publishing houses in the circle, this data is simply a killer.

"470,000 copies, do you know what this data represents?"

In a high-end office building in the XH district of Mingzhu City, a young editor-in-chief in his thirties is in a meeting.

The young editor-in-chief has a striking head, a white shirt with cuffs tucked up to his forearms, brown trousers, and a pair of black leather shoes. From top to bottom, it reveals a capable appearance.

At this time, the expression on his face was ugly. The table was full of people with their heads bowed, and not a single one dared to look at him.

"Four hundred and seventy thousand. If we are mistaken, the highest sales record for a work published by our Youth Publishing House is 450,000. If I'm not mistaken, this data is also the record holder for sales of similar works. ”

At this point, the editor-in-chief paused, glanced around, and the heads of the people at the table hung lower.

"But now that record has been broken. It was broken by a "The Legend of Wukong" that we didn't even look at. Now the whole industry is watching our jokes. ”

This is because Huayi once submitted the article to them first, but they didn't agree after a few glances, and this joke of refusal made their faces lower.

The young editor-in-chief paused again, trying to calm his somewhat agitated emotions. Only then did he say slowly:

"For the first time since I became the editor-in-chief of Youth. I also hope it will be the last time. Now tell me what you can do. ”

The people at the bottom, you look at me, I look at you, and they all hope that the others will stand up first to break the deadlock. After waiting for a long time, no one spoke, and the young editor-in-chief's face became more and more ugly.

Just as she was about to get angry, a girl with a slightly round face and thin-rimmed glasses stood up and said:

"After investigation, the main reason why Xinhua Publishing House's sales have increased so much is that a novel called "The Legend of Wukong" is ......"

"I want to hear your response, not your reasons. The young editor-in-chief interrupted her unceremoniously and said impatiently.

The girl said with a face full of grievances: "Our solution is to find the author of this fairy tale and try to poach it." At the same time, he asked Xuanyue, Wen Yuan, and Tangtang to ......"

The young editor-in-chief listened attentively, with no expression on his face, and could not tell whether he was satisfied or dissatisfied.

“…… With such a multi-pronged approach, we will definitely be able to regain the first place next time. ”

After the girl finished speaking, the editor-in-chief motioned for her to sit down. But instead of saying yes or no, he asked again:

"Whoever has any other way to say it, everyone brainstorms, don't be afraid of mistakes. ”

Maybe it was the girl's words that inspired everyone, or maybe it was her speech that created time for others. As soon as the editor-in-chief's words fell, someone asked to speak:

"I've compared Xinhua Publishing House with other books now, and it's exactly the same. Their sales have skyrocketed so much, all thanks to "The Legend of Wukong". But as we all know, a novel still can't hold up a publishing house......"

At this point, the man paused, as if he did not see the impatience on the editor-in-chief's face. To continue:

"The first one is not so easy to take. Without a certain background, the first is a hot potato. There must already be a lot of publishers to get their hands on. Naturally, we won't learn from them, we just need to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.

Of course, that doesn't mean we don't do anything. Hold your ground, play to your strengths, and victory will be ours. Therefore, I think Assistant Zheng's method is the most secure and feasible. I'm done talking. After listening to his speech, the editor-in-chief's face turned slightly pale.

He didn't make any feasible suggestions, though. Still, this analysis is insightful.

With two people taking the lead, the rest of the people also have Pu in their hearts. They have expressed their opinions.
