Chapter 474: Eight o'clock
At 8 a.m. on 1 February, major newsstands and bookstores across China began selling new issues.
"Heaven and Dragon Slayer", "Ming Dragon" and "The Sword of the Third Young Master" are all among them.
A few hours later, in addition to the sales data of "The Sword of the Third Young Master", the sales data of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" and "Ming Dragon" were all in a state of statistics.
Qi Ming and Yu Wenxiang are both famous in the literary circle, so the first printing of their new books will not be less than one million.
There are millions of books, and there are many major bookstores across the country, so to count the data of these two books, it is impossible to count them in a few days.
And the first print of "The Sword of the Three Youths" is only 200,000, so it was the first to be counted.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Qi Ming turned on the hotel's computer in advance to supplement some relevant knowledge of the [Honor] event, and then took the opportunity to start producing the script of the new movie.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Qi Ming, who was rushing to produce the script, received a call from Zhu Wenyong, editor-in-chief of Qixia Publishing House.
Through conversation, Qi Ming learned about the results of the hot alternative martial arts style in the past two days, and learned about the Qixia newspaper of Qixia Publishing House in recent times, as well as the sales of the physical book "The Sword of the Third Young Master".
After the call ended, Qi Ming began to think about the works behind "The Sword of the Third Young Master", "The Sword of the Third Young Master" will be finished in a few days, and Qi Ming wants that when "The Sword of the Third Young Master" ends, the new book will be seamlessly connected at that time.
After thinking about it for a while, Qi Ming had a plan for a new book.
looked at the time, it was close to five o'clock, Qi Ming wrote a short paragraph of the new book connecting "The Sword of the Third Young Master", and then sent it to Zhu Wenyong's mailbox, and then washed up and went to the Great Hall of the People.
Before the event began, reporters from various news media and staff from some television stations were busy inside and outside the hall, interviewing passers-by and celebrities who participated in the event.
Qi Ming didn't like the lively occasion very much, so he went straight to the Great Hall of the People where the [honor] event was held.
……
Hyatt Regency Shangjing.
In a luxurious suite, Yu Wenxiang and his assistant were discussing some details of the "Honor" event, as well as the recent sales of the Wenfang newspaper and the physical book sales of "Ming Long".
"Although the specific sales data has not come out, it is conservatively estimated that the physical book "Minglong" can break 100,000 copies in one day today." Yu Wenxiang's assistant looked at a form sent by Wenfang Publishing House and said to Yu Wenxiang.
"One hundred thousand"
Getting this data, Yu Wenxiang was not very happy, but his expression was flat.
The reason why this is the case is because Yu Wenxiang understands that the sales volume of "Minglong" exceeded 100,000 in a single day, and the biggest reason is because "Minglong" was serialized in the newspaper.
In addition to this reason, there is another reason that Yu Wenxiang does not know the first-day sales of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", which makes him feel a little uneasy.
"Can't you estimate the sales of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer"?"
Woo Wensang asked his assistant.
Hearing Yu Wenxiang ask, his assistant's face suddenly showed an inexplicable look, but this look was fleeting and was quickly suppressed by him.
In the past two days, because of the interactive live broadcast, Yu Wenxiang's assistant secretly watched "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", it's okay not to watch it, this is unbelievable, he has been watching traditional literature for a long time, and when he saw the content of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", he instantly regarded Qi Ming as a celestial.
Although the protagonist of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" has changed several times at the beginning, this is nothing for Yuwen Xiang's assistant who is in contact with popular literature for the first time, because for him, as long as the story is exciting, what does it matter who is the protagonist?
After reading the chapters of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" serialized in martial arts newspapers and magazines, he wanted to buy a physical book of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" to read, but because he was on a business trip now, he held back, and at this time, when he heard Yuwen Xiang mention "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", his inner thinking moved again, but he even Yuwen's opinion on "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", so his careful thinking that had just risen was suppressed by him again.
"I can't estimate it for the time being, but according to the response, the sales of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" are much behind "Ming Long". Yu Wenxiang's assistant looked at the data evaluation sent to him by Wenfang Publishing House and said.
"Let me know if there's news."
Yu Wenxiang didn't ask more, but said to his assistant.
"Yes." Yu Wenxiang's assistant replied.
But as soon as this sentence fell, Yu Wenxiang's assistant saw the landline phone in the suite ringing.
As soon as the phone rang, Yu Wenxiang and his assistant immediately looked at each other involuntarily.
Then, Yu Wenxiang's assistant answered the phone and said to Yu Wenxiang: "It's Zhang Gongzi's phone." ”
"Zhang Ziguan?" Yu Wenxiang asked with his eyes.
His assistant nodded in acquiescence,
After receiving the phone, Yu Wenxiang sorted out his emotions and then began to listen to the phone.
"Mr. Yuwen, the room is comfortable." Zhang Ziguan said.
"I care more about the question that Zhang Gongzi mentioned to me before than this question." Yu Wenxiang replied.
"Don't worry, since I have that guess, it is naturally well-founded, and this phone call is to talk to Mr. Yuwen about this matter." Zhang Ziguan said.
Yuwen Xiang nodded when he heard this, and said, "I want to hear about it." ”
As early as January, Yuwenxiang began to prepare for the [Honor] event, but near the end of January, Yuwenxiang received a call from Zhang Ziguan, the second son of the Hyatt Hotel.
At first, Yu Wenxiang didn't understand why Zhang Ziguan contacted him, only knew that Zhang Ziguan was the second son of the Hyatt Hotel, and was detained for offending Qi Ming, facing up to three years in prison.
For people like Zhang Ziguan, Yu Wenxiang doesn't want to deal with them, as for why Zhang Ziguan is not imprisoned, but is still active outside, Yu Wenxiang is not interested in knowing, because Yu Wenxiang understands that a person from a family like Zhang Ziguan is difficult to trip over unless it is a big thing.
But when Yuwenxiang listened to Zhang Ziguan's words, Yuwenxiang suddenly put away his thoughts about not wanting to deal with Yuwenxiang, because Zhang Ziguan told him a news that he had already guessed, but it still sounded shocking at this time - Qiming, the first person in martial arts, was probably operated by the team.
The team operates, to put it bluntly, it is fake and artificial.
Regarding this point, Yuwenxiang has not considered it, and Yuwenxiang also knows that many famous artists in the literary circle have guessed so.
But speculation is speculation, but he doesn't have any evidence to confirm his guess, so although he and Qi Ming have torn each other up several times, they have never said this, because Yuwen Xiang understands that once he says this and there is no evidence to confirm it, he can only suffer in the end.
So when Yuwenxiang heard Zhang Ziguan say this and revealed that he had some evidence to confirm his guess, Yuwenxiang was extremely shocked, and at the same time shocked, Yuwenxiang asked what the evidence Zhang Ziguan was referring to.
However, Zhang Ziguan did not answer at the time, but arranged a suite for Yu Wenxiang at the Hyatt Hotel near the venue of the [Honor] event, so that Yu Wenxiang could live when he participated in the [Honor] event, and he would inform him by phone from the suite at that time.
In this way, as soon as Yuwen Xiang arrived in Shangjing City, he stayed directly at the Hyatt Hotel.
"Mr. Yuwen is worthy of being a famous person, and his speaking standards are quite high." Hearing Yu Wenxiang say that he would like to hear the details, Zhang Ziguan said.
Hearing Zhang Ziguan say this, Yu Wenxiang did not have any expression on his face, but continued to wait for what Zhang Ziguan was going to say next.
"At eight o'clock tonight, there will be the answer that Mr. Yuwen needs, and when the time comes, I hope Mr. Yuwen will support the above article." Zhang Ziguan said.
"If it's really as Zhang Gongzi said, I will naturally support it!" Yu Wenxiang replied.
"I'm relieved that Mr. Yuwen said this, by the way, in addition to Mr. Yuwen, there will be many famous people tonight who will also support the content published in the Xinjing Evening News." Zhang Ziguan said.
"It seems that Zhang Gongzi has put a lot of thought into this matter." Yuwen Xiang said when he heard this.
"I am a man of revenge." Zhang Ziguan said coldly after hearing this.
Hearing Zhang Ziguan's tone, Yuwen Xiang couldn't help but pause slightly, and then secretly said in his heart, "Qi Ming, this time you are the one who offended you can't afford to offend." ”
After saying this, the two sides hung up the phone.
Not long after, Yu Wenxiang's assistant received a picture on his mobile phone, and the content of the picture was the content of the Xinjing Evening News.
After reading the content on the picture, Yu Wenxiang was suddenly ecstatic, and his emotions suddenly became very excited, and his assistant suddenly became a little lost, obviously the content on the picture made him suddenly have a lot of changes in his opinion of Qi Ming, whom he just admired.
"Tonight, it's going to be lively!"
After looking at the content on the picture once, Yu Wenxiang posted such a blog post on his WeChat/blog, and also @ Xinjing Evening News's official WeChat/blog by the way.
Yu Wenxiang's blog post with no beginning and no end made many of his Weibo/blog fans a monk who was confused, so they were ready to reply to ask what big things would happen? But as soon as I thought that tonight was the time for the [Honor] event, I suddenly transferred what Yu Wenxiang said to this, so Yu Wenxiang's blog post did not set off any waves.
However, with the issuance of Yu Wenxiang's blog post, it didn't take long for many famous writers in the literary circle to publish similar blog posts.
Only Yu Wenxiang posted this kind of remarks alone, which naturally does not make people think about it much, but many famous artists have posted similar blog posts, which makes people have to start thinking deeply, so many fans of famous artists in the literary circle have run to the micro/blog comment area of the Xinjing Evening News to ask what happened.
As for many netizens' inquiries, the Xinjing Evening News mysteriously replied with only four words: "You will know at eight o'clock!" ”
These four words of the Xinjing Evening News can be said to have aroused the appetite of many people at one time, so this issue of the Xinjing Evening News has attracted the attention of a large number of people before it has even started to go on sale.
