Thinking about it like this, Li Zehao's heart calmed down.

He covered his mouth with his hand, coughed lightly, and then said slowly: "The book "Love in the Neck Period" has been delivered to the printing house, and it has been reported to the president when the contract was signed, and the first printing is 1.5 million copies. ”

As soon as he said this, an old editor Qian Ronghui said softly: "The first printing of 1.5 million copies? Is this a bit much? This is the treatment that only famous writers who sell best?"

"This issue does not need to be discussed. Feng Ruisheng glanced at Qian Ronghui and said, "The contract has been signed." ”

Qian Ronghui stopped with interest.

Seeing that no one spoke anymore, Li Zehao continued: "I won't talk about the other details of this book, I have already signed a contract, I'll just say it, this book is still being serialized on the Internet, and it will end in two days......"

"Wait!" Li Zehao turned his head to look, and it was Qian Ronghui who interrupted him, "You just said that this book has been serialized on the Internet?

Li Zehao glanced at Feng Ruisheng and saw that he didn't react, so he said, "Yes." ”

"In that case, will people who have read this book buy the physical version of this book again?" Qian Ronghui was a little angry and said, "Editor Li, I didn't say you, you are not a newcomer anymore, how can you make this kind of mistake? Even if he is still serializing, after signing the contract, he must immediately ask the other party to stop serialization and delete the content that has been released, so as to ensure the sales of the physical book as much as possible!"

Li Zehao looked at Qian Ronghui fixedly, and suddenly laughed.

This Qian Ronghui is also a strong contender for the vice president of the publishing house, and after the plagiarism storm of the book edited by Li Zehao, he has become one of the most popular candidates in the society at present.

"Editor Qian, I know better than you how to deal with this kind of thing. Li Zehao looked at the other party's eyes and said word by word, "Don't forget, when you entered the publishing house, I taught you by hand." ”

"You!" Qian Ronghui's face turned red, and he didn't know how to fight back for a while.

Feng Ruisheng slapped the table and said loudly, "Comrade Qian Ronghui, it is very rude to interrupt people's conversations, if you have any questions, wait for Comrade Li Zehao to finish speaking! Also, don't ask the previous question again, I also agree to this matter!"

When Qian Ronghui heard this, he was depressed in his heart, MMP, you agreed to let the author continue to serialize on the Internet, so didn't you say it earlier? Do you have to jump out like a fool and be taught a lesson by Li Zehao? You did it on purpose, right?

Li Zehao glanced at Qian Ronghui, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, Look, fight with me, you are still a little tender!

"Before coming to the meeting today, I took a look at Weibo by the way, and the number of fans of the book "Love in the Neck Period" has exceeded 30 million, and it is still growing, and celebrities from all walks of life have also commented on this novel, which shows that the influence of this novel has begun to diverge......"

"Comrade Li Zehao, let's make a long story short!" Feng Ruisheng looked at his watch and said, "Just be direct and estimate how much this book will sell in the first month?"

"1.5 million copies!" Li Zehao didn't think about it, and blurted out!

"How much?" Qian Ronghui also forgot that he had just been taught a lesson before, his eyes widened, and he asked loudly, "How much do you say?"

"Sell at least 1.5 million copies in the first month!, and maybe more!"

"Hahaha! Li Zehao, don't be too funny, I've read a little bit of that book, it's just a collection of some small paragraphs, and then strung together with some old-fashioned love stories, do you think that after others read it once, they will spend money to buy a physical book and go home and study it slowly? Don't be too funny, okay?"

Qian Ronghui got Li Zehao's confirmation again, forgot that this was the conference room, and laughed.

"Editor Li, is this a bit too exaggerated?" Ma Guobao had just been scolded by the president Feng Ruisheng, and now he recovered, and kindly reminded him that he meant to let Li Zehao estimate a little lower, so as not to be scolded like him.

"Yes, Editor Li, why don't you think about it again?" Wen Yiming also chimed in.

"Don't think about it anymore, it's 1.5 million copies in the first month!" Li Zehao shook his head and said, "Not to mention that it has so many Weibo fans, the meaning of this novel alone is not comparable to other novels, it is the first Weibo novel in the true sense, it is the first novel that combines Weibo and literature, and it is also the first novel where the author and readers interact so directly and so frequently!"

"Editor Li, no matter how important the novel "Love in the Neck Period" is, the key is to see whether the market recognizes its value, and whether readers are willing to pay for it!" Ma Guobao sincerely considered Li Zehao, and couldn't help but persuade again.

"Yes, Editor Li, I think you should think about it again, even if it is a book written by a famous best-selling author, he doesn't dare to guarantee a monthly sales of 1 million copies, let alone 1.5 million copies!" Wen Yiming also persuaded him.

Li Zehao was still very moved by the painstaking persuasion of the two old colleagues, it seems that his popularity is not as bad as he imagined, but he still shook his head firmly and said: "Don't think about it anymore, I am very confident in this novel!"

"What if you can't do it?" Qian Ronghui, who had been sitting on the side without saying a word, suddenly sneered.

"If I don't do it, I'll resign immediately!" Li Zehao paused, and then asked him, "What if I do it?"

Qian Ronghui laughed: "1.5 million copies in the first month, do you think it's possible?"

"What if I did?!" Li Zehao asked.

"If you do, I'll learn to crawl around the office building!" Qian Ronghui sneered, "But, I'm afraid you won't have a chance to see it!"

At this time, Feng Ruisheng, who was sitting at the top, suddenly spoke, and he said in a deep voice: "Comrade Li Zehao, since you have set this goal, I also believe that you will do your best to achieve it! I will give you whatever propaganda resources you want, and I will see the results in a month!"

Ma Guobao and Wen Yiming glanced at each other, and saw that the other party's eyes were full of helplessness.

This Feng Ruisheng is also a black-bellied man, Li Zehao made a bet with Qian Ronghui, and he pretended not to know, but he wanted to see the result in a month, and he still didn't understand what the result was? Li Zehao lost, resigned and left; if Li Zehao won, Qian Ronghui will definitely not learn how to climb as a dog, and he can only leave! In this way, he still has to go alone!

But the matter has come to this point, Ma Guobao and Wen Yiming have no way, they themselves are mud bodhisattvas crossing the river, it is difficult to protect themselves, and they can still manage other people's affairs?
