October 11, 1999, was another Monday.

Every Monday is a new beginning.

Despite a long holiday and no weekends, all walks of life still habitually regard Monday as a new beginning.

There are a lot of things related to Zhou Lin on Monday.

On Monday, "Martial Arts Weekly" was published.

On Monday, the Chinese Music Billboard changed its charts.

On Monday, the recommendation list of Tianhua Bookstore was changed.

There is another important thing this Monday, because of the long holiday, the first advertising revenue of the game network can be paid.

Early in the morning, Zhou Lin walked to class, passed by the newsstand in the school, and stopped to take a look.

"What do you want?" asked the stall owner.

Zhou Lin's eyes swept over the newsstand, and asked suspiciously: "Martial Arts Weekly didn't come, or did it sell out?"

The stall owner said: "Do you want "Martial Arts Weekly"? These issues are not selling well, I don't dare to buy more, just one copy?"

As he spoke, he pulled out a copy of "Martial Arts Weekly" from under a stack of magazines.

Zhou Lin remembered that when the serialization of "Liancheng Jue" was the hottest a while ago, "Wuxia Weekly" was the most popular magazine used by every newsstand to support the façade, and almost every one of them placed it in the most conspicuous position in order to attract customers.

Only a month after the end of "Liancheng Jue", "Wuxia Weekly" has fallen to this point.

Songda's newsstand has a large volume of goods, and it is a microcosm of the entire Songjiang book, newspaper and magazine market, and if there is only one book here, the sales of "Wuxia Weekly" can be imagined.

Last week's sales have fallen to 60,000, and this week I am afraid that I will not even reach 60,000, and I will be completely beaten back to the original form before the serialization of "Mandarin Duck Knife" and "Liancheng Jue".

Zhou Lin was very sympathetic and paid for a copy to contribute a little confidence to the shareholders of "Wuxia Weekly".

Going all the way through "Martial Arts Weekly", Zhou Lin thinks it's very good-looking.

Although Geng Yunhe and Zhou Lin have already reached a tacit understanding, he is an editor with professional ethics and has not slackened because of this.

The recent titles and recommended newcomers of "Martial Arts Weekly" are actually quite good, and the works are in no way inferior to those masterpieces on "Martial Arts Old Things" and "Martial Arts Circle".

But readers just won't buy it, and there has been a cliff-like decline in sales, which has aroused the attention of the entire publishing circle.

In fact, it's all to blame Zhou Lin, who made the table before "Liancheng Jue" too amazing, the readers' appetites have been raised, and they originally ate a full feast on land and water, but it was a little unacceptable to suddenly become an ordinary mountain and sea delicacies.

It's not that Geng Yunhe doesn't give up, it's just that Zhou Lin is too demonic!

Zhou Lin was in a good mood all morning, but after receiving a call in the afternoon, his face became gloomy.

The call was made by Gao Zhining, who told him that there was a "small problem" in the payment of advertising fees from the Xintian Advertising Alliance.

"What's the problem?" Zhou Lin asked.

"There is a problem with the number of our website and it needs to be checked. Gao Zhining's voice on the phone was annoyed, "I think these guys are trying to repay the debt!"

Zhou Lin has long known that the income of the website cannot rely entirely on advertising fees, but advertising fees are definitely an important part of income.

If you really want to grow and develop, sooner or later you will have to create your own advertising department and advertising model to develop advertisers on your own.

Even so, when he heard that the Xintian Advertising Alliance wanted to default on advertising fees, Zhou Lin was a little angry.

"How much is the advertising fee to be paid?" Zhou Lin asked.

"Seventy five thousand four hundred and sixty-seven dollars and five jiao. Gao Zhining reported the figures.

"When do they say it's going to be paid?"

Gao Zhining said: "They said that the review process will take a month, and if there is no problem, it will be paid at the end of November at the earliest." ”

"Damn......" Zhou Lin couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.

More than 700,000 yuan, if it is deposited in the zài bank, the interest for a month is not a lot.

Besides, this is not a question of interest or not, but a question of whether this Xintian Advertising Alliance is reliable or not.

Delay it for a month, and by the time it comes to November, will they find other excuses to default on their fees?

"Alright, you don't have to worry about that. Zhou Lin comforted Gao Zhining and asked him to get down to business first.

Zhou Lin pondered for a while, called Wang Xiaotian, and told him about the matter.

Wang Xiaotian asked a few words in detail and said: "This matter is not easy to do, first of all, it depends on whether you have an agreement before you put the advertisement, and I have to read the agreement before I can determine the next move." ”

"I'll ask Gao Zhining to contact you. Zhou Lin said.

hung up the phone, and Zhou Lin left things behind.

Professional things let professional things be done, things have come to this point, let Wang Xiaotian toss, if even Wang Xiaotian can't toss a result, it will be the same for him.

However, this incident gave Zhou Lin a lesson, as long as the money has not been put into his bank account, it should not be counted in the assets.

Just spent 700,000 yuan, and a large amount of income can't be recovered, plus the follow-up royalties of several books such as "Zhu Xian" have not yet arrived, Zhou Lin's assets have shrunk rapidly, and there is not even one million funds that can be used at present.

In a bad mood, Zhou Lin simply escaped from the afternoon class and returned to the dormitory to continue plagiarizing "White Night Walking".

was copying, the phone rang, and it was Zhang Xueyuan who called.

"Zhou Lin, have you seen this week's billboard?" Zhang Xueyuan has always given the impression of being silent and calm, and it is rare to see him excited.

But every time he talked to Zhou Lin, he seemed very excited.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Lin really forgot to look at the billboard.

"Hurry up and see!" Zhang Xueyuan urged.

Zhou Lin opened the website of the Billboard and glanced at the screen.

Fang Cai's bad mood seemed to be swept away all at once, and a strong sense of accomplishment surged in his heart.
