Chapter 13 Sales are booming
At seven o'clock in the morning, there was a long queue at the door of the bookstore, and a group of people waited anxiously for the bookstore to open.
Tourists passing by around looked at the queue curiously, and some people who couldn't stand the curiosity stepped forward to interrogate, and soon joined the queue.
"Click.
As the owner of the bookstore, Olrich needs to get up early every day to open the door to make a profit, and as soon as he opens the door, he is startled by a group of people, if he doesn't know that this is a bookstore, he is about to think that these people are looking for him to settle accounts.
They came to buy the "America in the Eighties" book. ”
Olich thought so;
"America in the Eighties" is not very popular, but it is also a topical novel.
A crowd of people rushed into the bookstore, and in the midst of Olrich's surprise, they walked towards "Twilight: Twilight" with a black poster.
In a few moments, the "Twilight" on the bookshelf was quickly finished, and in Olich's stunned state, they all finished the account and left, their expressions dancing with their eyebrows.
"No, hurry up and check out other bookstores, otherwise it's too late and there will be no more!
The other young people who didn't get it whispered with a look of disappointment, and hurried towards the bookstore with messy steps.
Also Is Twilight: Twilight?
A blue-eyed girl eagerly stepped forward and asked Olich;
"No, it's tomorrow, or you can go to another bookstore.
Olich shook his head and said;
Thank you!
The girl hurriedly walked towards the other bookstores.
Olich's eyes suddenly became hot, and he shouted to the staff: Call Random House immediately and order 80,000 copies of "Twilight Twilight".
At the same time, the "Twilight of the Twilight Zone" in major bookstores was sold out in 40 minutes, and the owner of the bookstore hurriedly ordered "Twilight" from Random House.
…
In the printing room of the Random House branch, the volume of the phone rang non-stop, and a group of people were busy answering the phone.
What, "Twilight of the Twilight Zone" is sold out, and you have to order 100,000 copies.
Hey, hey, this is the Random House branch, and you're going to order 60,000 copies.
Okay, okay, we're going to urge the printer to get Twilight Twilight to your bookstore as soon as possible.
Sandna kept answering the phone, but he couldn't get through to each other's calls.
Just after a phone call, less than a minute later, another phone call came, all of which were good news for major bookstores to order "Twilight in the Twilight Zone".
Even if you increase the number of personnel, some of them can't receive the number of calls from major dealers.
"The screenwriter, some local bookstores in Germany and other places, asked us to order a novel book for Twilight.
A staff member walked in from the outside, sweating on his head;
Global, quick, call the printing house, print me 30 copies of "Twilight: Twilight", no, print me 500,000 copies, if you don't print it for me, change the printing house.
Sandner, breathless, ordered his staff to call the printing house, looking excited.
The popularity of "Twilight in the Twilight Zone" has also attracted the attention of dealers in bookstores in neighboring countries.
On June 20th, everyone was surprised to find that a novel called "Twilight of the Twilight Zone" landed at the top of the New York Times bestseller list.
The New York Times' new Publishers Newspaper features the best book of the year, and Twilight: Twilight is on the list.
"Twilight: Twilight" was awarded by the American Library Association
Top 10 Excellent Books for Young People" and "Top 10 Best Book Series".
As two famous places of honor in the United States, it has attracted the attention of the whole United States at once.
Some well-known magazines have even written book reviews about "Twilight"!

All of a sudden, a storm of romantic love vampires swept across the United States, the United Kingdom and neighboring countries, becoming the hottest news in 1983, and even TV stations reported the news.
Lester Lore is popular, because he is the author of "Twilight: Twilight", and often when others talk about "Twilight", they will use Lester's name.
——
Happy working together!
In the reception room of the Random House branch, Lester and Editor-in-Chief Reece Weir hold hands.
There are two contracts on the table of the two, as well as "New Moon", "Lunar Eclipse", "Breaking Dawn" and the extra "Midnight Sun".
Lester came here to sign a contract with Random House for the Twilight series.
The time has entered June, and the filming progress of "Raiders of the Lost Ark 2" has no Leicester role for the time being.
After receiving a notice from Random House to renew the "Twilight Series", Lester and Spielberg took a leave of absence and came to Random House.
1.5 million advance remuneration.
%30 Novel Price Share.
As soon as Leicester arrived, he asked for his own remuneration.
That's too high, a million upfront remuneration, %25 of the novel's selling price share.
Editor-in-chief Reece Weir raised an eyebrow, a little disagreeing; Offer yourself the psychological price you give to Leicester.
"1.6 million advance remuneration, %25% of the novel's price share, you know how popular "Twilight of the Twilight Zone" is now.
Lester decided to give up the %30 share of the novel's price and take a step back;
''Deal.
Editor-in-chief Reece Weir can only agree with the way;
"Twilight: Twilight" was published in just two weeks, and it topped the New York Times sales charts, selling 300,000 copies soon, and it continued to rise, and it won the Honorary Awards of Publishing Weekly and the American Book Association, and was broadcast on television.
Leicester carefully read the contract, then added his own conditions to the two contracts, and signed his name.
''Looks like it's time to get yourself an agent.''
Lester thought to himself;
After this negotiation with the editor-in-chief, Reece Weir, Lester discovered his own shortcomings, and if he had left it to a professional agent to negotiate with him, he would have reached a contract quickly, instead of wasting so many tongues with Reeville.
