The gimmick that Zhang Tan is a high school student is indeed very attractive, but whether it is the traditional version published by Taiwan Xianxian Culture or the simplified version published by the Jinnan People's Publishing House, there is no special news that Zhang Tan is a high school student. After all, physical books are different from magazine serializations, and serials have this gimmick on them, and they can also bluff people and make people pay to buy them to find out, after all, it is only a few dollars a copy.

But the physical book, without hype, the identity of a high school student can only make everyone close and far away.

Who would be interested in a martial arts novel written by an unknown high school student.

To say that Han Jingming, who is very popular, also dropped out of high school, but it is not comparable, he is the first prize of the New Concept Essay Competition, and there is a hype behind it, and he became famous before writing a novel, and the newspaper hyped him vigorously, so naturally some people sought after him.

Zhang Tan has no one to hype for him, and a book of "Ancient Legends: Martial Arts Edition", which is still very weak, is making a name for him.

However, it can be regarded as Zhang Tan's luck, Xunnan People's Publishing House chose to follow the formal publishing process, and did not change the author's name to Li Tiejian, Zhang Feifei and the like, to sell dog meat on the head of a sheep.

Ordinary newcomers can't get the right of authorship when they publish a book.

Back then, Chunfeng Literature and Art Publishing House published a book for the team leader's "Super Demon Killing Empire", and it set the skin of Guo Jingming's three "Illusion", "Phantom", and "Illusion". It wasn't until these three books became popular that they were changed back and re-signed with the pen name of the team leader.

It's all in the publishing world, it's just such a mess.

In the Yucai Bookstore, Wang Guohua said to a high school student, and the two high school students who were reading were thundered, and he didn't believe it, so that he was about to enter the god of "The Four Famous Catches the Kanto", which turned out to be written by a high school student.

"This Mediterranean uncle, what about fooling people, right?" The student with glasses complained to the student next to him.

"I don't know, the author's introduction didn't say it."

"It must be fake, he hasn't read this book himself, and asked us if it's good-looking, how do we know how old this Tan Zhang is."

"It makes sense, when this guy flips through the book, his eyes are dripping and he looks like a liar."

The two students muttered for a while, despised Wang Guohua, and then continued to bury their heads in reading. The student party who has no pocket money to buy books can only come to the bookstore to read them when they are free.

Wang Guohua, who was despised as a liar, had already walked out of Yucai Bookstore and sat back in the jeep with his assistant Wu Hai.

"Xiao Wu, did you ask clearly?"

"I asked clearly, director, our publishing house has 200 copies of "The Four Famous Capture of the Kanto" in the Yucai Book Store, and 195 copies have been sold. Yucai Bookstore is preparing to contact us and order another 500 copies. Wu Hai's tone was very excited, although Wang Guohua's commission for selling books was the lion's share, but as an assistant, the boss could also drink more soup when he made money.

"Great, it sold very quickly, in just two days, 200 copies sold 195 copies! Let's go to the next bookstore, Joint Books! ”

The half-new jeep, running on the long yarn road, soon arrived at the Joint Bookstore.

Joint Bookstore is also a national chain bookstore, and like Yucai Bookstore, it is the vane of book sales. Similarly, Sanlian Bookstore also bought 200 copies of "The Four Famous Capture of the Kanto".

After inquiry, the results were still encouraging.

More than 170 copies of the 200 copies of the triptych have been sold.

In the store, Wang Guohua also asked a man about 30 years old who was going to check out with "The Four Famous Earthquake Hunters" and asked him why he bought the book.

The man replied very interestingly: "You said this book, I have read it a long time ago, I read it on "Ancient Legends", and I have always wanted to buy a treasure. But I only heard about the traditional version before, but I didn't expect to come and read the book today, and I accidentally found that the simplified version was also out, so I bought it. ”

"Do you like "The Four Famous Earthquake Kanto" so much?"

"yes, this book is really good, it's interesting and tasteful. And the author is a freshman in high school, tsk, the current high school students are too powerful. In less than ten years, it is definitely a generation of martial arts masters, and it means a lot to buy a collection now! ”

"Hehe, collection, do you like martial arts novels so much?"

"Martial arts is a fairy tale for adults, how much children like fairy tales, how much adults like martial arts!"

"Well said!" Wang Guohua gave a thumbs up, because he really thought he said it well, and if everyone thought so, then the book would be a big seller.

For a whole afternoon, Wang Guohua went to more than a dozen bookstores in Changsha City and got first-hand sales information.

Basically, bookstores with relatively large customer flow, "The Four Famous Capture of Kanto" are selling very well, and smaller bookstores, because of the small customer flow, have not improved too significantly, and they are selling averagely.

But it can't be ignored that it's only been on the shelves for just over two days.

"Can fire! I'll print it when I go back! After Wang Guohua returned to the publishing house, he ambitiously contacted the distribution department and made a plan for printing.

……

The plan to reprint is a bit delayed, because 10,000 copies have just been printed, and it has only been two days, and it will be reprinted again.

Wang Guohua is also very helpless, the publishing house is public, not opened by him privately, and he can print it if he says it, everything has to be reported and approved.

After waiting for a week, the approval procedures were in hand, and the phone number of the marketing department of the publishing house was also blown up.

Each bookstore had to order a new batch of "The Four Famous Earthquake Catches Kanto", and the cumulative number of orders was more than 33,000 copies. And it is still increasing, especially some bookstores in other provinces, smelling the potential of "The Four Famous Capture of Kanto", have called to order a batch.

"Hurry up and print 100,000 copies!" As soon as Wang Guohua got the approval, he contacted the printing house to add it.

After the workers of the printing factory worked overtime to start printing, Wang Guohua let out a long sigh.

At that time, when he signed a contract for publication, he never thought that "The Four Famous Earthquake Catchers Kanto" could sell so well, that is, he planned to distribute tens of thousands of copies in a small fight and earn a commission of thousands of dollars. The competitive pressure in the publishing industry is also high, not everyone can find bestsellers, and most publishers make money in this way.

"But this time, I finally caught a big fish!"

10,000 copies were printed, sold out in a week, and more than 33,000 copies have been received for follow-up orders. The 100,000 copies printed this time may not necessarily fill the market.

It's just that Wang Guohua didn't dare to print more, the market capacity is limited, and a book is on fire, and pirated books will appear soon.

The kind of pirated books, regardless of the content and the quality of the paper, can basically find a fire book today and start distributing it tomorrow. The peak sales season for genuine books is the period before pirated books are released.

Thinking about it, Wang Guohua took out his mobile phone again and made a call.

"Hey, is it Mr. Li? I Wang Guohua, ...... of the Hunan People's Publishing House Yes, I have a batch of martial arts novels, "The Four Famous Capture of the Kanto", and I want to put it on your online sale...... Okay, okay, we'll meet tomorrow and talk about it in detail. ”
