Chapter 460: The Tip of the Iceberg for Crushes
After Xiao Fei's new book "Brothers" launched some time ago was published in "Harvest", it was not handed over to Hanmo Company to operate, and many people in the company were very disappointed.
Especially after the hit of "Brothers", everyone is even more sour.
Many Hanmo employees firmly believe that if "Brothers" is handed over to Hanmo to operate, it will be more than double the current best-seller.
And now, Xiao Fei's new work has finally been handed over to Hanmo to do, and of course everyone is happy from the bottom of their hearts.
Now, all the people in Hanmo have a strong sense of ownership and a strong sense of dependence on the company. Everyone wants that it would be better if all the good books were run by their own company.
"Mr. Liu, what is the name of Mr. Xiao's new book?" Ouyang Bojiang asked.
He has been in Hanmo since its establishment, and now he is the manager of the company's editorial center, and he can be regarded as a senior fan of Xiao Fei, so he is naturally very concerned about Xiao Fei's new book.
"Xiao Fei's new book is called "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty". Liu Ze said.
"Oh? The title of this book is so strange, it doesn't look like the name of the novel. Ouyang Bojiang frowned and said softly.
"Is it a realistic historical novel?" Lu Jin asked.
Liu Zelai shook his head with a smile and said: "This book is not a novel, but it uses the penmanship of a novel, and in general, it can be regarded as a popular book of history, well!" It's very interesting and profound, and ordinary people will also like it when they read it, in short, after you read it, you will know how classic it is! ”
He waved his hand toward the door.
The secretary, who had been waiting there, walked in with a thick pack of printed materials in his hand and began to hand them out to the participants.
These printouts are only the first ten pages of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".
One copy per participant.
Liu Zelai hopes to let everyone feel the excellence of this manuscript and get a glimpse of the whole leopard. From the beginning of this little content, people can feel the majesty and shock of this book.
The information is distributed.
Ouyang Bojiang took it in his hand. The heart is hesitant. Xiao Fei is an excellent fiction writer, that's true. But is it really good to have a top good novelist write a popular book on history?
If you are used to writing fictional novels, can you control real history?
Without the weaving of a gripping storyline, can you move people's hearts by relying solely on the narration of historical materials?
Ouyang Bojiang was skeptical.
In fact, not only Ouyang Bojiang has this doubt, but all the editors in the editing center are not very optimistic.
After all, in the minds of editors, it is difficult to write new ideas and eye-catching effects in a dry history popularization.
Ouyang Bojiang began to read with doubts.
Immediately. From the first sentence, he was deeply intrigued.
Zhu Yuanzhang was actually given a file, and this file was written in a harmonious way, which made people laugh.
For example, when it comes to academic qualifications, the author wrote: There is no diploma, and it is not all about showing talents, and I have studied on my own. It's a novel and funny way to write it, isn't it?
Looking further down, there are frequent laughs.
Zhu Yuanzhang's profession is written as "emperor".
My favorite color is yellow. Also use parentheses to note that this is not selected.
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's motto "What's yours is mine, what's mine is still mine", Ouyang Bojiang laughed directly. Sky! This sentence deduced from "The shore of the land is not the king's land" is too funny, and it directly renders Zhu Yuanzhang's domineering character at a glance.
Ouyang Bojiang looked at it and smiled. Smiling and looking at it, he read it with great interest. I also learned a wealth of historical knowledge, and also deeply re-acquainted myself with Zhu Yuanzhang.
The manuscript of more than ten pages was read quickly.
"Anything else? Where is the subsequent manuscript? ”
"This book is so interesting. It's really as Mr. Liu said, it's so easy to read. I couldn't help but want to keep watching, but unfortunately the back is gone. ”
"What a strange book! Mr. Xiao's talent is really amazing. ”
"Mr. Liu, does this book really have to be operated by our Hanmo Company? Judging from the content of these more than ten pages, it will definitely sell very well, and such an easy-to-understand and interesting popular historical book is exactly what the market is short of. ”
After reading the book, everyone in the conference room began to talk about it.
Liu Zelai was very satisfied with everyone's reaction, he raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said: "This book will be the focus of our company's work after the Spring Festival." Before the festival, we have to do a good job of its publicity and warm-up work, it is best to be able to do the booking work in place, so that after the festival can be directly printed and distributed, everyone expresses their opinions, we brainstorm, as soon as possible to form a promotion plan to ......"
After Liu Zelai made this request, the participants began to offer suggestions one after another.
Some people say that Xiao Fei's name alone has a huge market appeal, as long as the slogan of Xiao Fei's new book is played and some gimmicks can be picked out for publicity, you can use the media to launch a bombardment of news and public opinion.
Some people say that the first half of the book can be given to all the important newspapers in the country, so that they can start serializing it in advance, cooperate with the news and publicity, and guide readers to read it, as long as readers read it, they will definitely like it, and they will be full of expectations for the publication of the new book.
Some said that they wanted to make some articles about Xiao Fei's current identity.
The Department of History of Peking University is the best history department in China.
Xiao Fei is a student of the Department of History, and after just a few months of studying there, he benefited a lot and received guidance from everyone, and then he had the current "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".
Tie the history department of Peking University and those famous historians to their chariots, and let them become the living signboard of this book, so that "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" has authoritative support.
……
In short, there is everything to say.
He also came up with some valuable ideas.
Liu Zelai also adopted them one by one.
The meeting lasted more than four hours. It was open from six o'clock in the afternoon to more than ten o'clock in the evening. Of course, there will definitely be supper and refreshment time in between.
At the end of the meeting, the full set of promotion plans was directly formed.
……
Two days later, the news of Xiao Fei's new book spread in the newspapers.
Xiao Fei's launch of a new book is no longer a hot news, but what if this new book is not a novel, but a set of popular science books called "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty"? Will the reporter be interested and want to know more about it?
The answer is: it is inevitable.
In fact, all the news that is published revolves around this.
Why didn't Xiao Fei write novels, but write popular science books on history? What did he write "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" look like?
At the same time as the news broke, some chapters of the book were also in the news, and at the same time, newspapers began to publish the serialization of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".
Because Xiao Fei's change in writing direction this time is really sudden, the enthusiasm of this media report is also very great.
Almost all the important newspapers, television and radio in the country reported on the incident.
The radio station even tried to broadcast the chapters released by "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" for propaganda in the radio drama section, but the response was not ordinarily good.
As a result, "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" suddenly became hot in the cold weather at the end of this year.
Hexi University, Liu Xinmei's dormitory.
Qua was holding a copy of Hexi Daily and happily reading the serialization of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" in the newspaper, and the seven girls in the entire dormitory, except for Liu Xinmei, were all laughing back and forth.
"Mom! No, my intestines are broken with laughter, I really didn't expect Xiao Fei to write history so funny. ”
"Quack, don't read it anymore, okay? Cluck...... I, I'm laughing. ”
"Quack, you're reading too slowly, so it's better for me to read it for myself."
The girls made a mess.
Quack proudly frenzyed nymphomaniac: "The man I recognize is amazing, writing something is so classic, the novels he wrote have made more than 90% of the country's writers ashamed of themselves, and now, he has stretched out his magic hand to history, I see, historians should also buy a piece of tofu to prepare." ”
"Quack, well-known historians have already admitted defeat, look here,'Professor Lu Zelin believes that Xiao Fei's "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" can be read as a historical classic, and he never gets tired of reading it', and another Professor Qian Dali also said, 'Xiao Fei is a natural historian, he has a keen sense of history and insight, and the history of the Ming Dynasty he wrote is an in-depth and easy-to-read popular science work on Ming history, which is very suitable for ordinary people to read, and can gain knowledge and cultivate body and mind'."
A female voice who snatched the newspaper from Quaqua said, pointing to the newspaper report.
"The Department of History of Peking University and Hanmo Company held a press conference, and it seems that the Department of History of Peking University has been impressed by Xiao Fei." A female voice who leaned her head over to look at it also said.
Liu Xinmei sat on the side, didn't mix, she just barely pretended to smile indifferently and looked at the scene in front of her.
Her heart was even more sour.
She found that the current Xiao Fei was as unattainable as the sky above her head.
"Xinmei, tell us about Xiao Fei's troubles when he was a child, hehe, I find that I like Xiao Fei more and more, I just want to know all the stories about Xiao Fei." Quack walked over, hugged Liu Xinmei's neck with a big grin, and said coquettishly.
"Quack, I don't want to say it now, I've said it many times just like that." Liu Xinmei said with a reluctant smile.
"Xinmei, let's talk about it! We all love to hear it. Although Xiao Fei has a girlfriend now, he is not married yet, and we all still have a chance to ......" A group of girls surrounded him.
Liu Xinmei's head hurt for a while. She found that she was only remembered or valued now because she was a villager from Xiao Fei's village...... She didn't know whether to cry or laugh. (To be continued......)
