Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Master's Recommendation
The popular volume of "Iron and Blooded" quickly spread to the ears of other writers.
Some writers are not convinced, and make a strange irony, saying that imitation of scum is too serious, and it is completely like piracy.
What else to say, Xiao Erlang's pen name is really bad, it's like a child who took it casually, and it doesn't respect readers.
Of course, these are mostly some small writers, who made a lot of money by becoming popular overnight.
As for the famous family, no one has publicly talked about Ye Feng for the time being.
After all, for them, there is no need to stand up and talk about it at this time, this is completely a practice of helping others increase sales, and the act of advertising others for free, literati are light, and no one will do this kind of thing.
Of course, Ye Feng doesn't care about this, as long as the newspaper sells well and sells well, even if all the writers scold themselves?
As for Xiao Erlang's pen name, it is purely Ye Feng's spoof.
Because when he was choosing a name, he turned on the computer and searched casually, and accidentally found that there was no song "Little Erlang" in this world.
searched the inventory in my mind, and sure enough, I found the full version of "Xiao Erlang" in my head.
This also means that if Ye Feng releases the song "Little Erlang", it will be equivalent to his original song.
Therefore, Ye Feng directly chose the pen name of Xiao Erlang, it just so happened that he was the second oldest at home, and his family often called him the second child, Xiao Er, he will be famous in the future, what kind of talk show he does, and he can also have a good explanation for his pen name.
For several days in a row, the sales of the Kunlun Times remained stable at around 250,000 copies, and all of a sudden, this little-known tabloid newspaper has become one of the top newspapers in Hong Kong.
At the same time, the popularity of "Kunlun" has also attracted the attention of scumbags.
I have to say that when he has no interests with himself, the scumbag is still a good senior.
I don't know who it was, but I gave several newspapers serialized with "Kunlun" to the scumbag, and the scumbag kept admiring after reading it.
"This "Kunlun" is very well written, the character portrayal is very delicate, and the emotions are lingering and compassionate, the current serialized iron-blooded Tianjiao volume, with my "Condor Heroes" mentioned in the "Battle of Diaoyu City" as the background, slowly unfold a picture of history and chivalry, in "Kunlun" I seem to see my own shadow, but it jumped out of my influence, which is commendable, a new generation of martial arts masters, there should be a place for Xiao Erlang. ”
This evaluation of the scum Yong was reported by Oriental Daily and Ming Pao at the same time, and all of a sudden, the sales of Kunlun Times soared by several percentage points, and the sales exceeded 300,000 copies in the following three consecutive days.
After a week of serial warm-up, Ye Feng felt that the time was almost ripe, the entire "Kunlun" of more than one million words had been completed, and it needed to be published next.
After all, no matter how high the sales of the newspaper are, it is a small head, even if it can stabilize the sales of 300,000 copies, the advertising cost can earn millions of Hong Kong dollars a year.
After all, in these years, the competitiveness of newspapers is still relatively large, and the ratings of TV are quite high, so the advertising cost of newspapers is not like the momentum that will increase dramatically in the next few years.
But by that time, it seemed that paid newspapers could no longer be opened.
"Well, that's a good idea. ”
Ye Feng suddenly thought of this, waved his hand and took out his notebook, and wrote it down.
When the financial turmoil hit, with the help of the financial turmoil, everyone paid attention to the current affairs and was reluctant to spend money on newspapers, so they directly launched free newspapers, and directly occupied a large share of the newspaper industry in Hong Kong from a professional financial perspective.
By the time others react, the Kunlun Times will be able to capture at least a third of the market.
After the economy recovers, relying on advertising fees alone, collecting hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars a year is like a joke.
As for why it's free now, Ye Feng said, I didn't see that the young master is still short of money now.
With the recommendation of the scumbag, Ye Feng took the opportunity to publish the volume of "Kunlun's Iron and Blood Tianjiao".
100,000 copies were directly rolled out, and more than 30,000 copies were sold on the same day.
After writing (copying) "Kunlun", Ye Feng is now sitting and waiting to collect the money, Ye Guoqi, who has been frowning, seems to have been affected by the good news brought by Ye Feng's side one after another in the past two days, and his face has reappeared with a smile.
At noon the next day, when Ye Feng was cultivating in the dormitory, Robert came to the door again.
"Ye Shao, we really sent it this time. Haha, we're rich. ”
Robert laughed like crazy as soon as he entered the door, and Ye Feng was a little confused, not knowing what was wrong with Robert.
"Stop, don't invite your neighbors. Slowly, what's going on? Why did it suddenly irritate you?"
Robert poured himself a glass of water, drank two sips, stabilized his mind, and then laughed twice, seeing that Ye Feng's face was unhappy, he quickly stopped laughing.
"Ye Shao, my God, you really have a pig's foot halo. Do you know that the advertising expenses of our newspaper were only more than 500,000 yuan a year, but after the sales of our newspaper exceeded 350,000 copies yesterday, several large groups approached us to sign advertising agreements. ”
"People said that as long as your "Kunlun" can be serialized all the time, they are willing to sign a three-year advertising agreement with our newspaper. ”
When Robert said this, he even bought a pass: "Do you know how much advertising costs a year?"
"How much? Just say, don't be funny with this. ”
"With 16 million a year, if the newspaper can maintain sales of more than 200,000 yuan, plus the income of the newspaper, the net profit of the newspaper alone in a year can exceed 20 million Hong Kong dollars. ”
"God, the pig's foot is almighty. I am also a dignified traverser, it took three years to earn more than 10 million yuan, you came, less than ten days, 20 million a year... ”
"Great, this money came at a real time. Now my next plan can be executed. ”
When Ye Feng heard the news, he also slapped his thigh happily.
He thought that in this era, it would be enough to earn millions of dollars a year in advertising expenses, but he didn't expect that the influence of his book would be so great.
But think about the scumbag Ming Pao, it is indeed like this.
After all, Robert took out a licensing agreement of his own, and Xiao Erlang's will be published in the "Kunlun Times" in the future, and Ye Feng also allowed Robert to reveal that Xiao Erlang has a certain amount of shares in Longteng Entertainment.
After all, there are too many places where he needs to use money in the future, and it is too troublesome not to have an upright funding channel.
Now that there is such a good channel, it is natural to take advantage of it.
The advertising contract has been signed, and the advertising expenses for the first year have basically been paid, and more than 14 million Hong Kong coins have been deposited into the newspaper's account, excluding the 10% backlog.
With this more than 10 million, Ye Feng felt that his plan could continue to be implemented.
However, that night, Robert brought himself another piece of news, which made Ye Feng change his mind.
