"Bring me a copy of Ming Pao Monthly."

"This classmate, I'm sorry, it's sold out."

"Sold out, how can it be so fast?"

"I didn't expect it to sell so well, it sold out in more than 20 minutes." The kiosk owner replied, a look of remorse on his face.

The newsstand owner has been running a newsstand for seven or eight years, and in his impression, Ming Pao Monthly was still relatively easy to sell in the seventies, and of course, this good seller was relatively speaking. Generally, if you buy five copies, you can sell three or four copies, and sometimes you will sell out all of them. But in recent years, it has not worked, often buying five, and only selling two or three copies, and slowly he only buys three.

This year, even a symbolic one. But because this location is relatively remote, sometimes you can't sell a copy.

However, in recent days, because he sells newspapers and periodicals, he noticed a news item in Ming Pao about Lin Jing's new work that would be published in Ming Pao Monthly. Last year, because of Lin Jing's martial arts novels "Heroes" and "Kunlun", "Ming Pao Evening News" sold particularly well. Often, newspapers are just hitting the shelves and are quickly sold out.

Based on this impression, he deliberately added a few more copies of "Ming Pao Monthly", an unprecedented ten copies.

I didn't expect that the file had just opened today, and someone came to ask if there was a "Ming Pao Monthly" for sale, and then in less than half an hour, ten copies were sold out. In the past, I couldn't sell one copy a month, but now I sell ten copies in a few dozen minutes.

Scenes like this newsstand are playing out in many parts of Hong Kong.

On September 2, the editorial office of Ming Pao Monthly.

Dong Qiao looked at the number jù list that Zhang Lilai had brought over, which was the sales volume of yesterday's "Ming Pao Monthly", and the sales number was 56,383 copies.

More than 50,000 close to 60,000 copies. One day's sales, and that's just Hong Kong.

Although the 50,000 copies have already consumed a lot of the "potential" of Ming Pao Monthly, with this momentum, it is undecided that by the end of the month, the sales volume may exceed 100,000.

One hundred thousand!

A monthly magazine. If it can reach 100,000 sales, it is undoubtedly a myth in a small place like Hong Kong!

When the sales boom of "Ming Pao Monthly" was launched, Lin Jing and Mo Ziqi were on the phone.

Mo Ziqi reported to her some of the situation of the Time and Space Film Studio in the recent period, as well as the arrangements for the second half of the year. But after the report, he talked and talked. talked about Lin Jing's new work and "Ming Pao Monthly".

"The new "Ming Pao Monthly" is selling very well, but this is all due to your work, Miss Lin. If you can hand over the "Rise of a Great Power" series to Bookworm Press, sales should be better, and Bookworm Publishing can go to the next level in terms of reputation and performance. Mo Ziqi said jokingly.

With Lin Jing's reputation today, no matter what words are written, there is no need to worry about sales at all. That's why Mo Ziqi said that "Ming Pao Monthly" sells well, not that the publication does well.

But Mo Ziqi also knew that it was impossible to hand over "The Rise of a Great Power" to Bookworm Publishing House, especially after he read "The Rise of a Great Power: The Ocean Age", he affirmed his idea even more.

It's not that "Ming Pao Monthly" can give a higher salary. Even for a high-level academic journal like "Ming Pao Monthly", university lecturer-level submissions are only 80 words per 1,000 words, and professor-level submissions are only 100 to 1500 words.

As far as he knows, Lin Jing's "The Rise of a Great Power" is one hundred and five words per thousand, which is equivalent to the highest quality professor submission. It is said that Jin Yong, Dong Qiao and Zhang Lilai all agreed to give a higher remuneration, but Lin Jing himself denied it.

It's just one hundred and five thousand words, and Bookworm Publishing House can give more than 2o% of the remuneration at any time, and two or three hundred or four hundred thousand words are not a problem.

But in Lin Jing's opinion, it's all just a little money.

Wrote "The Rise of Great Powers". She's not in it for the fee. Even in the eyes of many writers, 15 words per 1,000 words is already an unattainable height for them, and earning hundreds of thousands and 11 million is not a problem at all.

If she really wanted to make money, she wouldn't have written "The Rise of a Great Power" at all, because an article like "The Rise of a Great Power" is not like popular literature, and its readers will not be too wide. is like his younger brother Lin Yan and sister Lin Si, I like the novels she wrote, "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" and "The Three Kingdoms", but for "The Rise of a Great Power", Lin Si said that he couldn't understand it, Lin Yan could understand some of it, but not much, and in his opinion, "The Rise of a Great Power" was very boring, and he wanted to sleep when he watched it.

"The Rise of a Great Power" is a work that is destined to be a niche, of course, this niche is only relative. Lin Jing has so many brain-dead fans, many of them may not like it, but they will buy it back and collect it.

"Later, there will be a chance." Lin Jing said with a smile.

"You've got a new idea?" Unexpectedly, her words surprised Mo Ziqi, "It won't be so fast, right?" ”

""The Rise of a Great Power" is just a "Ocean Age", just the tip of the iceberg, where will it be so fast, when I finish writing "The Rise of a Great Power", when I graduate, I will talk about it when I have time." Lin Jing said noncommittally.

She has a lot of work in her head, but she doesn't have that much time to write it.

With the popularity of "The Rise of a Great Power", in Hong Kong, a topic about "The Rise of a Great Power" quickly formed. Because of the content of "The Rise of Great Powers", the topics cited.

The martial arts novels that Lin Jing wrote before were also very lively after the table, but this excitement was a surprise at the contrast between Lin Jing writing such a mature martial arts novel at his age, rather than the value of the work itself. Even "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" and "Three Kingdoms", because they were too popular and "grassroots", although they also caused a sensation, but this sensation did not reach the "heavenly hearing".

Most of the people who pay attention to and like Lin Jing's works are ordinary people.

An intellectual like Dong Qiao, if it weren't for his acquaintance with Jin Yong, even if he knew that there was such a person as Lin Jing, he might not have paid attention to reading Lin Jing's works, even if Lin Jing's name had spread all over Xiangjiang.

Because in the eyes of these people, many of the works written by Lin Jing, such as martial arts novels and romance novels, are just dog meat-like things, which can be used to satisfy hunger and hunger, but they can't be put on the table.

Just like Jin Yong, although he has written more than a dozen martial arts novels, these more than ten martial arts novels have spread all over the Chinese areas of the world, earning him thousands of family fortunes and great fame, but in Jin Yong's eyes, his most proud career is "Ming Pao" and "Ming Pao Monthly".

After all, it is only the eighties, and in the eyes of orthodox intellectuals, martial arts novels are crooked and unpopular. If a student is seen by a professor running to study martial arts novels, he may be reprimanded for not doing his job.

Like later generations, Peking University professors like Kong Qingdong went to specialize in martial arts novels, especially Jin Yong's martial arts novels, and even appeared on the hundred podiums to talk about "The Hero of Laughing Books", which is very perverse and impossible.

As the topic of "The Rise of Great Powers" became more and more intense, all of a sudden, reading "The Rise of Great Powers: The Ocean Age" became a fashion, a fashion among intellectuals, a fashion among white-collar workers, and a fashion among middle school students and college students.
