Next chapter
The emergence of best-selling books still has about a dozen books in China every year.
But books that can sell more than 5 million copies are really hard to find, so Zhongli took the manuscript and found it, and Bowen Bookstore agreed.
As a major bookstore chain, the staff of Bowen Bookstore is well-informed.
On December 1st, I was still taken aback.
This is one of the most remote cities in the west, and there is only one branch in the city.
At seven o'clock in the morning, the salesman went to work on time, and when he walked to the door of the bookstore, he looked at the long queue of nearly 1,000 people, and everyone was stunned.
"It's coming, it's coming!"
"It's finally here, I've never been so diligent, I got up at five o'clock!"
Seeing the salesman in bookstore costumes, the crowd in line was gossiping, and the few people in front began to urge them to hurry up.
The bookstore is not large, and there are only five salespeople.
Wen Yan smiled bitterly: "It's useless to line up, you are here to buy "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", and it will arrive at nine o'clock." ”
"What, why didn't you say it earlier?"
"Yes, I read the advertisement saying that it will be on sale today, but I didn't see the specific time, so I took a seat and went to breakfast. ”
The five salesmen looked at each other.
"Inform the manager. ”
The branch manager is the general person in charge of Xingchen Media in this city, and it was a little incredible to hear the news, so he hurriedly put down the matter at hand and dealt with the emergency situation here. said it was sudden, but in fact, I had received the news yesterday, but I didn't expect so many book lovers to come.
After all, the manager is a manager, and as soon as he saw the crowd at the scene, he immediately knew that the quota was insufficient, and called the nearby warehouse to urge the goods.
The allocated share was only five hundred volumes, and there were nearly a thousand people on the spot.
It wasn't until about 10 a.m. that the delivery van was late, and the waiting crowd rushed up, and it was sold out in 20 minutes.
"Do you still have the first part?"
The manager wiped his sweat in the winter and said busily: "Yes, there are still a few books at the counter." ”
"A new day has begun again, Zhu Di sits on the emperor's throne, looking down on the empire, the previous life-and-death struggle seems to be still vivid, but it doesn't matter anymore......"
Some of the people who bought the book did not leave, but opened it on the spot, and whispered from time to time to exchange their feelings after reading.
"That's what it smells like!"
"After all, no board of directors can be the chairman alone...... Haha, it's still that interesting. ”
"Haha, now I found out that it is very funny that the reward of 1,000 taels of silver in the TV series is held by the eunuch, it is 100 pounds, and if you want to hold it, you must first practice!"
……
"Today's news shook the whole country, to the reporter's surprise, the incident was caused by a history book, please watch the reporter from this station sent back from the scene. ”
The Ocean TV entertainment channel, for the first time, was occupied by works.
The board of directors reacted quickly and took advantage of the situation to conduct an interview with an expert, and the so-called expert did not know where to invite a history professor.
"Professor Deng, are you surprised that there is a rush to buy a history book?" the host asked.
This Professor Deng was also a member of the Ming Hei at the beginning, but in this situation, he must not be in opposition to readers across the country.
That's a fool's business.
"I'm not surprised at all, if you've read that interview, you know that the author has some research on history. ”
"The answer is not what you asked. The host complained secretly, and then asked: "Then why do you think this history book is so popular?"
Professor Deng coughed and spoke slowly.
"First of all, I would like to correct you, the book "Ming" is not a history book, and the author himself clarified it in an exclusive interview. ”
"In my opinion, its success is mainly due to the strong personal emotions that the author incorporates into the book. Whether you write an article or a book, there is no taste without the author's feelings. The author uses a unique perspective to express his thoughts and love for the Ming Dynasty, caressing like his own child. ”
This kind of emotional integration based on historical facts and moral ethics has a great enlightening effect on historical authors. ”
……
Ordinary readers can't speak out on TV programs, newspapers and magazines, and the Internet is heaven.
The second "The Coming of All Nations" is still only about 100,000 words, and it is extremely easy to read.
In this regard, several managers are happy and worried.
After an interval of about three months, there was a struggle between historical experts and the grassroots.
The truth may be in the hands of a few, but the end result is often that the minority obeys the majority, and one of the majority stands out.
Grassroots historians
Ordinary history buffs say that the victory of "grassroots historians" is their victory.
"I have just read it and am not qualified to express my opinion for the time being. ”
"After I've read it three times, there may be a long review released later, and friends can wait for a while. ”
"The time is too short, and the heart is surging, and I don't vomit or feel unhappy. Shen Da's feelings are in the same vein, if the protagonist of the previous part is Zhu Yuanzhang, the protagonist of this one is undoubtedly Zhu Di, an emperor who is not inferior. Just like the personal expression in Shen Dashu, even if you have a look that everyone envies, a well-read talent, and an inexhaustible wealth, it cannot prove that you are strong, because the strength of the heart is the real strength. ”
"This is not a history book, but the finest work!"
Of course, there are also some discordant voices.
"The author has only done some trivial examination and revision work on historical facts, lacking rigor. ”
"Reading notes!"
"Is it wise to read history, or is it wise to read history?"
……
Shen Zhe has always been grateful to these sour people.
Especially some hiding, irresponsible remarks on the Internet, for the sake of Huang Rong's soft hedgehog armor Guo Jing hugged it all right, Ouyang Ke touched his hands full of blood and people to start a war on the forum. Now that I think about it, I am also looking for my own guilt.
But now he is also a little depressed.
The frustrating thing is that "Ming" has more to attract fans than he expected.
Shen Zhe is a person who reads too many books and is too miscellaneous, and it is difficult to invest too much emotion in a certain book.
I really like it, just watch it twice.
He has never been a die-hard fan of anyone in the two time and space, and he can't understand the psychology of fans at all.
In addition, the book-buying frenzy is far greater than that of the other generation.
Because at that time, the fans who first published it on the Internet and bought the physical book after it was published must be true love.
Huaxia is different, the readership base has expanded, coupled with the inducement of public opinion, if you want to see the content, you either have to borrow it, or you have to queue up to buy it.
This level of super bestsellers, Bowen bookstore officials also focus on follow-up.
At 7 p.m. that day, the nationwide branch closed, and the preliminary sales figures were announced.
1.45 million.
One million in a single day!
The publishing industry was dumbfounded, and after finding out the historical records, it was found that except for administrative intervention, there has never been a single work in China that has reached this level. On top of it, this situation doesn't explain the total sales, but it can explain the urgency of the fans.
In the past, it happened when a certain singer's album or movie star's new film was released.
The work is triggered, and it is the first time in the world.
Of course, in the eyes of professionals, in addition to the fact that books are really popular, it can also be seen that the channels of Bowen bookstores are very powerful. (To be continued.) )
