Chapter 44: The First Bullet of the News
This weekend, the biggest news in Zhonghai City is that a couple will be holding a wedding at the Grand Theater.
At that time, the wedding scene will be broadcast live on Zhonghai Satellite TV, and the two film and television stars from Zhonghai will tie the knot.
Tie the knot again.
"You said that they got married and separated, and now they are holding another one, is it to get one more share of the money?" When watching TV, Yang Xin watched the news host broadcast the good news with an expressionless face, and turned around and asked Shen Mingcheng suspiciously.
"Ah, who wants to get married?" Shen Mingcheng was reading the newspaper and said in surprise.
"Me!"
Shen Zhe on the small bench couldn't help laughing, and said, "Mom, you didn't pay attention to it just now, it costs more than 3 million yuan for people to hold this wedding, even if you invite hundreds of people to participate, it won't be able to get back to the basics, right?"
"Then who knows, they are all stars, one person with 10,000, they will definitely make money!" Yang Xin gossiped.
Shen Zhe said helplessly: "Take a stack of money and stuff it in." ”
Shen Mingcheng also reacted, frowning and said: "Why are people becoming more and more casual now, the news is smoky all day long!"
"Dad, you can't get used to it, let's close the door and live our own lives. ”
In this time and space, no one knows better than Shen Zhe the horror of the era of information explosion, people's hearts are moved, and the news media is fueling the fire.
Huaxia is just the beginning, and it is not unusual for a slightly old-school intellectual like my father to look down on it.
……
"A mouse has conquered countless children in China, and Grandma Zhen still knows the babies so well!"
"The new issue of "Children's 365" has entered thousands of households, and poor parents are overwhelmed by the children's two problems......"
On the front pages of dozens of newspapers and periodicals in China, the name of a magazine and the old man who can be called a grandmother by hundreds of millions of people appeared at the same time.
At 8:20 in the morning, the postal car stopped on time in front of the "Children's 365" magazine, and the postal employees who got off the car waved to the doorman, and the old yellow fox came over suspiciously and asked, "Xiaohu, what's the matter?"
Xiaohu smiled bitterly: "Help send the reader's letter to Grandma Zhen's office." ”
"It's just a letter, if you send it directly, it's over, haven't they been like this before, and I haven't seen you take the initiative to register with me. ”
"Two big boxes!"
Lao Huang was taken aback: "How is it possible, who writes so many letters?"
"Look at the handwriting on the envelope, it is all letters from elementary school students, and the three nearby places will be sent today, and it is estimated that there will be a lot in the next two days. ”
"Okay, I'll help, what's going on?"
Xiaohu was about to open the back door, and said casually: "It's not the "Shuke and Beta" that made trouble, it doesn't matter how old you like to listen to stories, you can learn to read and write, and you like to let your parents buy it back and read it, it's really strange." ”
Don't you know that there are still strange people like Shen Zhe in the world, who still read fairy tales when he was in college.
The editor of He Qi also jumped into the office and chirped: "Grandma Zhen, our 3.2 million copies of this issue have been sold out, and many bookstores have called to make up for it, what should I do?"
"What else can I do, Jiayinbei, you girl, you don't have a little steady!"
……
""Chinese Youth" will open a new column on May 15, and the genius author Peach Blossom Island will bring the new work "Dragon and Tiger Fighting Jinghua" to be serialized in 10,000 words, martial arts are coming, shocking your nerves!"
Zhongli organized more than a dozen editors of the marketing department of the magazine to carry out scolding advertisements on official blogs, martial arts forums and various corners of the network.
At the same time, he spent a lot of money to buy advertising space in "China Overseas Daily".
This is the construction of Wei editor-in-chief, and old readers of his age also like "Dragon and Tiger Fighting Jinghua". This kind of person likes to flip through the newspaper the most, and if the advertising is not in place, they will never buy a youth magazine.
Zhongli immediately agreed.
If you can sell youth magazines to those old men, it feels so cool.
are all people who have read the full version of "Dragon and Tiger Fighting Jinghua", Editor-in-Chief Wei is more confident than Shen Zhe, and the poems in it alone can tickle his itch.
The advertisement appeared suddenly, and to Zhongli's surprise, the reader's first focus was not on the book.
It's a name, a pen name to be exact: Peach Blossom Island Master.
"The island master is here, catch him!"
"Damn, this thing finally appeared, and I thought it was hit by a car!"
"Be careful upstairs, don't curse my Xiao Ke, otherwise the sanitary napkin will be in your bowl!"
"Girl, watch out!"
On the Internet, where major netizens are concentrated, they have followed the post under the advertisement.
The editors of the magazine looked at each other.
Zhongli smiled bitterly: "I forgot that Xiao Shen once published "Those Years", because the college entrance examination did not appear for a year, and there were fewer voices looking for him. ”
"What was the influence of 'Those Years'?" said Editor-in-Chief Wei puzzled.
In fact, the two books published by Shen Zhe, Editor-in-Chief Wei, preferred the first one, which was more in line with his appetite, and of course the martial arts that were going to be serialized now were better, as for "Those Years" in his opinion, it was a bit boring.
Su Wei on the side smiled in her heart, of course you, a person in your fifties, don't look down on the stories of your student days.
"Those Years" has sold almost 3 million copies so far, and it is just a booklet, and I heard that it is especially popular on high school campuses to copy this book by hand and give it to girls. By the way, editor-in-chief, did you call Xiao Shen for the follow-up manuscript fee?"
Zhongli shook his head and said, "Not yet, I originally thought that the United States would settle the settlement together, but it has not been completed until now." ”
"Oh, how is that book selling abroad?"
"You mean "If you give me three days of light," Zhongli's expression was very strange, "This Xiao Shen, I don't know how his brain grows, the story he writes is good-looking, and he can still confuse the real with the fake." I heard from foreign friends that many people in the United States are looking for Helen. ”
"And this?" the surrounding editors were also stunned.
Zhong Li said: "Indeed, they all believe that there is really such a person in the United States, and that Tasgambian town still claims to be the birthplace of Helen!"
“……”
Su Wei sighed: "I used to think that the domestic sales of this book had just exceeded one million, although it caused a sensation, it was still lower than expected, but I didn't expect the real outbreak to be abroad." ”
"It's normal, after all, it's created in the background of the United States. A male editor interjected.
Zhongli waved his hand: "Don't deviate from the topic, put the others aside first, go to the Internet to hype up the concept of martial arts first, and use a qiē method!"
……
In a university dormitory in Jiangjin City, a female student ran in out of breath.
"Xiao Lin, the Peach Blossom Island Lord has appeared!"
The girl in cool clothes was playing with the computer, and she was busy shouting, "Dead Lulu, close the door!"
The girl named Lulu sighed: "What door to close, this is the girls' dormitory, and there are no smelly boys...... Did you listen to me?"
"Listen!" Xiao Lin had to get up and close the door, and said dissatisfiedly, "The girls' dormitory will also enter the boys' dormitory, understand?"
Suddenly screamed, ignoring the leakage of spring, and asked urgently: "What peach blossom island owner, you mean the island owner?
Lulu nodded again and again: "It's him, he's going to serialize the novel in "Chinese Youth" again!"
Xiao Lin screamed again, and walked to the side of the bed to hurriedly put on clothes: "Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and buy it, it's gone when it's late!"
"Oh, Xiao Lin, haven't started yet......"
Xiao Lin was stunned: "Didn't you just say that he appeared?"
"It's appeared, and other magazines advertised, and the release will not be until May 15!"
"Is there a picture of him on it?" Xiao Lin looked excited, "Is it a college student who is about to graduate, as I guessed?"
"Definitely not, I'm right, an uncle in his thirties with a sighing stubble can write a story like that!"
"Handsome guy!"
"Uncle!"
The good sisters immediately quarreled.
……
Because of the relationship between readers and audiences, although "Shuke and Beta" has been reported by many newspapers, it has not caused much sensation in the entire media industry.
Young literature readers are different, this is the group with the strongest fan attributes, and it is also the main force of netizens.
Shen Zhe saw the advertisement of the magazine on the Internet, and his eyes immediately straightened.
"What is this, isn't it over when the author brings a pen name, why do you add a genius, it's too high-profile, right?"
This is not in line with the style of being a person, and it is easy to be slapped in the face.
Let's talk about contacting the editor.
Su Wei was online, and when she saw Shen Zhe's questioning, she was puzzled: "This is what the editor-in-chief means, he thinks you are a genius author, oh, I see it that way too." ”
"Sister, I can't say it when I look at it like this!"
"What's this, there are many geniuses every day, and there are many authors in literature with the name of genius, what are you afraid of. ”
"Then ......" Shen Zhe was stunned, yes, what am I afraid of? Scratching his head and thinking about it, it is estimated that the habit of being a low-key person in the original time and space is still retained, because it is too much failure, and then he will be high-profile and purely die. Now that the possibility of failure has been minimized, what are you afraid of?
"Well, anyway, the ad has been out, genius is genius. ”
Su Wei said: "By the way, I have to discuss something with you, and there is a lot of movement to find you on the Internet." I reckon reporters should smell it too, and tomorrow they will be outside the magazine office to find out about you. The editor-in-chief wants to give you a small press conference, what do you think?"
"Uh......" Shen Zhe heard another unexpected news.
Seriously, he doesn't have much affection for media reporters, but he also understands that as he carries more works, he will inevitably become famous, and he can't bypass them.
However, it is better to appear in front of the media as little as possible, and the people who engage in writing are not celebrities, so it is better to be mysterious.
"It's not necessary, if you really want an interview, you can use it in the form of a text interview. ”
"Okay then, I'll talk to the editor-in-chief about going ......"
