Yang Jian never denied that he asked Avril to participate in the signing of "Phantom City" to take the opportunity to hype. But as he explained to Jin Xuan earlier, this is a win-win situation, so Yang Jian never thinks there is anything wrong.

This is an era of information explosion, and all kinds of information will be transmitted to all directions through the Internet at an unimaginable speed as soon as it appears, and it will be received by countless people who pay attention to the Internet, so it is still hungry for information. Some boring things, hype can be passed on to everyone, let alone such a material. What about the explosive topic?
Just after Yang Jian browsed all kinds of relevant information, smiled and went to the codeword. The relevant reports and information of the "Phantom City" signing meeting continue to spread on the Internet in a fission way. It has attracted more and more netizens' attention, and even extended to reality.
The old rival of Spring Breeze Literature and Art, Sunshine Literature and Art Publishing House.
A senior editor came to President Zhang's office with a copy of the newspaper, and before he could speak, he heard President Zhang ask, "Xiao Fang, did you get the sales data of "Phantom City" yesterday?" ”
The senior editor was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Got it, yesterday Chunfeng Literature and Art was on the shelves of "Phantom City" on the shelves of the three major cities of Yanjing, Modu, and Jinling at the same time, and it is said that as of 11 o'clock yesterday evening." More than 60,000 copies have been sold. ”
"Sold 60,000 copies in more than half a day?" President Zhang was a little surprised, and then said: "Hmph, what about 60,000 copies, the first day sold the most, and today they have to come down." It seems that in the end, it will be able to sell hundreds of thousands of copies, which is better than the average bestseller. The little money they earned was not even enough for their previous publicity expenses, this time look at how Spring Breeze Literature and Art ends! ”
Regarding President Zhang's strategic contempt for the enemy, Editor Fang agreed. But thinking about the actual situation, Editor Fang felt that President Zhang's contempt was already biased towards contempt, and he had to be reminded.
"President, "Phantom City" was only on sale in three cities yesterday. And it only took half a day, and today is the real first day on the shelves. And, you look at this. Editor Fang put the newspaper in his hand on President Zhang's desk.
President Zhang lifted his glasses. When I took the newspaper and looked at it, I saw a big headline on it - "Phantom City" signing will cause a topic. Yang Shen is actually Wuwei, and the goddess of ice and snow is in tears! ”
"Yesterday. I represented the newspaper in the signing of "Phantom City" in Yanjing, and I thought it was just a boring interview, but after I went, I realized that it was definitely one of the most topical interviews I have done since I became a journalist. A small book autograph session, there were at least two exciting topical news"
After reading the report in the newspaper, President Zhang's face was also ugly, and he slapped the table and said, "Hype!" It's definitely hype! The guys in Chunfeng Literature and Art are really shameless and morally corrupt, and they even found two stars to act and hype up a book! ”
Although he could see that the president was very angry, Editor Fang couldn't help but say: "President, that Wuwei is Yang Shen, Chunfeng Literature and Art doesn't need to invite him." ”
"So what?" President Zhang slammed the newspaper on the table and said loudly: "Publishing sells books, not reputations? And whether it's Yang Shen or Avril, they are just two little stars who only debuted this year, how much appeal can they have? They put so much effort into it, if "Phantom City" doesn't sell a million copies in the end, they just wait to see the joke! ”
Editor Fang really didn't dare to say anything more, and after taking the newspaper, he was about to quit.
"Wait!" President Zhang stopped him again and said, "Leave the newspaper behind, and tell me how the sales of the "Green Years" we launched yesterday are on the shelves? ”
Editor Fang listened with a bitter face, put down the newspaper and said: "President, "The Green Years" was put on the shelves of various book sales points in the five major cities yesterday morning, and only 30,000 copies were sold in one day. Over there in "Phantom City", I heard that more than 30,000 copies were sold in Yanjing alone, and it was only half a day."
"That's it! Did you say so much? Get out! President Zhang yelled with a red face, feeling bullied by his old rival.
When President Zhang roared, on the other hand, in the Chunfeng Literature and Art Publishing House, its president Liu Zitao was smiling. With yesterday's sales data of "Phantom City" in three cities in hand, and then looking at the current Internet, and even the heated discussions of various newspapers and magazines about the signing of "Phantom City" in reality, I can't hide the smile on my face.
At this time, he was holding an impromptu meeting of a publishing house.
"Everyone also understands the situation of "Phantom City", we have paid a lot in the early stage, and through yesterday's preliminary data, our efforts can be rewarded. More importantly, the events of Mr. Yang Jian, the author of "Phantom City", and Miss Avril Lavril at the book signing were far beyond our expectations. ”
"Now the relevant discussions about "Phantom City" on the Internet have been overwhelming, and some new entertainment magazines and news reports have also mentioned this matter today, so to speak, "Phantom City" has become a hot spot for many people, and it is no longer just a favorite book for teenagers. We must seize this opportunity to sell "Phantom City" on the shelves of all 12 major cities on the front line today! ”
"Yes, President."
The participants were also full of energy, and in response, they went to work to work and were busy for the official launch of "Phantom City" today.
Those publishers who underestimate Phantom City have actually made a mistake, that is, reality is a much bigger world than the Internet. "Phantom City" has become a hit on the Internet, and it seems that many people have seen it, but in fact, this part of the people only accounts for a fairly small part in reality. In reality, there are many more people who are easy to like "Phantom City", but don't know or don't notice "Phantom City", such as teenage students who don't often surf the Internet.
Similar to young students, because they can't often surf the Internet, their sensitivity to the Internet is actually similar to those adults in their forties and fifties who are almost disconnected from the Internet. However, when the topicality and news of "Phantom City" were further expanded, it naturally appeared in their sight.
Outside a middle school, after school at noon, a figure full of youth and vitality left the school gate. Many students were talking about what they had seen and heard yesterday as they walked.
"Xiaoqing, I heard that Avril cried at the signing of "Phantom City" yesterday, do you know?"
The two figures rode bicycles side by side, and the young boy said to the equally young girl.
The girl wrinkled her nose and snorted: "You know Avril, I also heard that Yang Shen also appeared at the signing of "Phantom City" yesterday, he is the author of "Phantom City" Wuwei. ”
"Yang Shen, I know, didn't he introduce his song "Blooming Life" to you. But I've never heard of Wuwei and "Phantom City" before, what is "Phantom City" written about, is it good? The boy scratched his head and asked.
"Of course it's pretty," said the girl, "or Avril would have burst into tears." ”
"Shall we go buy a copy and have a look?"
"Okay, I'm looking for someone to go with me to buy it, and I've heard that there are a lot of people." The girl was happy.
The two came to a large bookstore nearby, and when they saw a long queue in front of the bookstore, they couldn't help but feel a little worried. looked at the people who came out one by one, and the books in their hands turned out to be "Phantom City", and they were all a little speechless, and said secretly: Obediently, there are really so many people buying them?
Although shocked, the boy still joined the queue with the girl to buy the book.
This situation is constantly playing out in the 12 cities where "Phantom City" is on sale today. Many people have never heard of "Phantom City" before, or have heard of it, and have not thought of watching it. But today, seeing that yesterday's "Phantom City" signing meeting was so hot, some people wanted to buy a copy and take a look.
They wanted to know what the book that brought Avril to tears, the goddess of ice, was like.
And they want to know, so the genius and demon Yang Shen has written a very popular book silently, so what is this book like.
Some people who started to buy books just for the names of Yang Jian and Avril Lavigne, after opening "Phantom City", they were quickly attracted by the words with a touch of sadness and strange beauty, in addition to the beautiful comic illustrations and well-designed bookmarks, all of which made these people feel that this "Phantom City" was worth buying.
Reading is contagious, and when you hear people around you say that a certain book is good, people will be willing to read it and buy it. In this way, on the first day of "Phantom City" on the shelves, "Phantom City" was almost snapped up at sales points everywhere.
In the afternoon, the calls from those agent wholesalers even reached the Chunfeng Literature and Art Publishing House.
"President, there are more than a dozen calls, all of them are out of stock in "Phantom City", and they came to urge the goods!" A staff member ran into Liu Zitao's office, sweating profusely.
"Ship, ship to them." Liu Zitao said.
The staff wiped their sweat and said, "President, the goods have been sent out several times before, and the warehouse has long been out of stock." ”
Liu Zitao's eyes widened suddenly when he heard this, and he said in surprise: "What? Don't we have 1 million copies in stock? All sold out?! ”
