Some classmates called Zhao Yan to ask about the sales of new books, and some classmates sent text messages, Zhao Yan didn't expect that it was one o'clock in the morning, and someone came to ask, so he simply turned off his mobile phone.

Early the next morning, Zhao Yan came back from morning practice and met Tang Ping in the dormitory corridor, Tang Ping asked with a smile: "Zhao Yan!" I heard that your new book went on sale online last night, how's it going? Have you sold it for 10,000 yuan? ”

Zhao Yan glanced at him coldly, his smile was not good, he opened the door and entered the dormitory, just when Xie Dengyun came out of the bedroom, and when he saw Zhao Yan, the corners of Xie Dengyun's mouth were upturned, and the mockery was fully revealed.

When I walked into the classroom for early self-study, someone came over from time to time to ask Zhao Yan how the new book was selling in Youjian Qi?

Close, slightly curious, not close, curious with the meaning of watching jokes, how is the sales of Zhao Yan's "Rebirth Dacheng Sword", except for Zhang Peng, no one else knows, but someone in the class already knows the subscription of several works on the shelves during the same period.

I don't know where these people got the news, before Zhao Yan went to bed last night, there was already news circulating in the boys' building, saying that the subscription data of "Knife" and "Empty Gate Feiyan" was less than 100, and then contact the subscription price of Sword Qi as low as 35 points per thousand words, those two books obviously couldn't make any money.

And whether it is "Knife" or "Empty Gate Feiyan", they are all frequent visitors on the reward list of sword qi works recently, and their ranking is only a few places lower than Zhao Yan's "Rebirth Dacheng Sword".

"Zhao Yan's subscription to that book is definitely not high!"

This sentence has been circulating in the boys' dormitory and the girls' dormitory last night, most of the girls go to bed early, and the scope of the spread is slightly smaller, and the boys' side has almost spread it last night.

"Hey! Zhao Yan! How are the sales of your book? ”

Nian Xiaobai, who was sitting at Zhao Yan's back table, asked quietly.

"It's fine!"

Zhao Yan replied lightly.

"Really?" Xia Qiu, the eldest grandson at the front table, frowned slightly, with a slight concern between his eyebrows.

Zhao Yan hummed and nodded slightly.

……

Zhao Yan didn't explain the concept of a 24-hour first chapter subscription to anyone, except for the employees who had sword energy.

"How's it going? Call up the subscription data of the works on the shelves in this issue and show me! ”

After lunch, Zhao Yan came to the company and found Xi Jian directly. Let Xi Jian call up the data.

Xi Jian agreed, tapped a few times on the keyboard with both hands, and then moved the mouse, and the computer screen in front of him already displayed the subscription data of all the works last night.

Because of the arrival of Zhao Yan, everyone in the company subconsciously gathered over, at this time, everyone's interest was not high, whether it was the editor-in-chief Wang Qin, the technical director Xi Jian, or the new employees Su Junyu, Yu Xiaona, Fang Bing, Fan Long and others. They all know very well that Zhao Yan's financial resources are not strong. If the charging system can't succeed this time, if there is a sword qi that can't support it, they will soon face unemployment, and Zhao Yan, who is only 17 years old, will not be able to provide for them.

"The Sword of Rebirth" - 442.

"The King of Guns" - 88.

"The Realm of Divine Martial Arts"-256.

The Knife - 119.

"Wolf Smoke in the Mountains" - 212.

"Flying Swallows in the Empty Gate"-103.

"Invincible Fist" - 97.

The Left Hand of Death - 174.

"Humanoid Weapons" - 196.

"The Legend of the Purple Shadow Sword"-74.

This is how the data in front of Zhao Yan and everyone is presented, there are more than 400 subscribers, only Zhao Yan has one, and more than 200, only Black Dog's "Shenwu Realm" and Xiao Ming Shenjun's "Jiangshan Wolf Smoke".

There are also two books that have not exceeded 100 subscribers to the first chapter so far, especially to Zhao Yan's surprise is "The King of Guns". This book has almost always ranked second on the reward list recently, and Zhao Yan thought that its subscription data would be second only to his own "Rebirth: Dacheng Sword", but he didn't expect it to be the second-to-last work on the shelves in this issue.

"Mr. Zhao! "The King of Guns" was not updated last night, and it was only updated this morning! It's only been a few hours now! ”

Yu Xiaona suddenly broke the silence of the scene. attracted everyone to look at her, Zhao Yan also looked over, being watched by so many people, Yu Xiaona was slightly nervous. But he still squeezed a smile and repeated what he had just said.

"That's it! Right! I seemed to notice last night that "Gun King" has not been updated, but I didn't expect it to be updated this morning! That author is so calm! Scold! Hehe! ”

Wang Qin suddenly smiled, and Jia Hongwei also smiled and echoed: "There are 88 subscriptions in one morning. It also surpassed "The Legend of the Purple Shadow Sword", which is very good! ”

"Now there are nearly 12 hours before Mr. Zhao said the first subscription data in 24 hours, I hope this afternoon and evening, these subscription data can increase a little more!" Wang Qin kept a smile and said something to cheer everyone up.

His encouragement had some effect, and the atmosphere on the scene was a little relaxed, but after Zhao Yan and him entered his office, the smile on Wang Qin's face disappeared.

"Mr. Zhao! The situation is not optimistic! The 10 books on the shelves of this issue of the Golden Sword Sheath List are already our most popular works in recent times, including Mr. Zhao's "The Great Sword of Rebirth" that has been tested by the publishing market, if there is no book of yours in this issue, the data on the shelves this time will be even more ugly! Mr. Zhao! I suggest that in the short term, we don't sign up for any more works on the shelves! We don't make any money at all with this kind of subscription data, and don't forget, we have to pay a perfect attendance bonus! Fortunately, if more and more works are put on the shelves, the attendance award alone will quickly drag us down! ”

"No!"

Zhao Yan paced in Wang Qin's office, vetoed Wang Qin's suggestion without thinking about it, Wang Qin opened his mouth and wanted to say something, Zhao Yan raised his right hand to stop him, and at the same time Zhao Yan also stopped and looked at Wang Qin, and said seriously: "Editor-in-chief Wang!" Now we need an example! An example who can really make money in our sword energy! This role model could have been me, but now I am a boss with sword energy, and no matter how high the data of my book is, the outside world will doubt the authenticity of my data! ”

Wang Qin: "But Mr. Zhao! Except for your book, I'm afraid other books can't be a role model! They don't have enough subscription data! It's hard to hold up! ”

Zhao Yan raised his hand again and interrupted Wang Qin.

"Nope! I'll try to make the subscription as high as I can for that book! But the example or benchmark we want must have another one! Editor-in-chief Wang! Now it's not a question of whether you can or not! It's whether we need it or not! Since we need it very much, then, that benchmark figure must appear! Bad for subscribing to data? We help him improve! If a little improvement is not enough, we will help him improve ten points, and if ten points is still not enough, then double it again! In short, we must set a benchmark for me, so that other authors can see the hope of making money, no matter how much we say, no matter how good the publicity is, it can't compare to the role of a benchmark person! ”

Wang Qin was a little stammered.

Mr. Zhao ...... Do we help him improve? How can you help? Help him falsify his data? Then in the month, we have to pay the manuscript fee! The manuscript fee can't be faked! And since it's a benchmark figure, it's long-term, and you can't just leave it alone after a month, right? That could be a wasted effort! ”

Zhao Yan shook his hand.

"Of course we didn't help him make fake data!"

Wang Qin: "Then how can you help him improve?" ”

Zhao Yan: "Recommended!" Don't we have a big seal? It's my book hanging these two days, right? Take it down! Put the book we want to hold up, put it for a week if it doesn't work for a day, and if it doesn't work for a week, change to a slightly worse recommendation to continue! All of our high-quality recommendations are rotated for it, and I don't believe there are any that can't be won't be awarded! Of course! The premise is to choose the best quality works on the shelves in this issue! Don't let readers scold us for always pushing bad books! ”

Wang Qin smiled a little wryly when he heard it, he never thought about which book to go through such a back door, even if it was Zhao Yan's work, he didn't intend to praise it so obviously, but he didn't expect Zhao Yan to teach him to rotate a book on various high-quality recommendation positions this time.

"Alright! But Mr. Zhao, which one do we choose? "The King of Guns"? Although the current subscription of this book is a little low, its quality is very good, and the most important thing is that the first chapter on its shelves was only released this morning, and the current number of subscribers is not the lowest, which shows that ......"

Zhao Yan raised his hand again to interrupt Wang Qin's words.

""The King of Guns" may not work!"

Wang Qin: "Why? ”

Wang Qin was puzzled.

Zhao Yan walked to the sofa next to him and sat down, and said casually: "Its update came so late on the first day of its release, if I remember correctly, its update was not fast!" If it can't get up quickly, then it's completely unqualified to be our benchmark! ”

Wang Qin also sat down on the sofa with Zhao Yan, and when he heard this, he asked again: "Why?" ”

Zhao Yan looked at Wang Qin and said without hesitation: "Because we are taking the low-cost route!" The subscription price has been so low that if the author's updates aren't fast enough, do you think you'll be able to make money? ”

Wang Qin: "The quality is good, there are more subscribers, it's okay to slow down, right?" ”

Zhao Yan shook his hand.

"You have a point! But our benchmark can't be that kind of author! Because we can't find so many authors with good writing that the subscription to one chapter can exceed the subscription of two chapters of others! So, today! Today, your editorial department will communicate with the authors with the best data on the shelves in this issue! Find out what they're willing to do, how fast they write, and whether they've had time to devote to writing lately! Understand all of this, and then comprehensively select one or two people to give the maximum support in the near future! I don't ask them to earn tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or hundreds of thousands a month in the near future! But at least to the extent of earning 5,000 a month! ”

"Good! I understand! ”

Wang Qin agreed, although judging from his expression, he didn't completely agree with Zhao Yan's idea, but Zhao Yan had already ordered it, and he still reluctantly agreed. (To be continued......)
