Chapter 18: Fame Rises Quietly
"Hehe, how's it going? Ozawa, are you confident? ”
Fu Chen handed the first part of the just-published "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", "Emperor Hongwu", to Zhao Ze, and said with a smile.
"The author of "The Legend of Wukong" has worked hard to tell the Ming Dynasty that you don't know"
On the cover, a line of large characters looks unusually eye-catching, without too much embellishment, it looks concise and generous, Zhao Ze is also satisfied, he believes that if the first thing that arouses the reader's interest, it will definitely be this name.
"The Hongwu Emperor of the Ming Dynasty"
Glancing at the title of the book carefully, Zhao Ze knew in his heart that he was not too familiar with how to publish and even how to operate, but at this time, he had a not very clear idea in his heart, and for a while, he was a little stunned.
"Ozawa ???"
Seeing Zhao Ze's appearance, Fu Chen's heart sank, thinking that there was something flawed in the publication of this book, and frowned and shouted.
"Uh, Editor-in-Chief Fu, this book is very good, so let's do it, I don't know much about this, just look at it." Zhao Ze came back to his senses.
"Ha Luha, okay, since you have no opinion, then, let's start putting the first part on the market first and observe the market's reaction." Fu Chenha said with a smile.
After coming out of Yangyang Publishing House, looking at Zhao Xiang who sent him, Zhao Ze suddenly asked, "Editor Zhao, how long have you been in Yangyang Publishing House?" ”
"It's been ten years, thinking back then, I was just a stunned young man who first entered the campus, and in the blink of an eye, I was thirty-three."
Zhao Xiang was slightly stunned when he heard Zhao Ze's words, and then let out a long sigh.
Ten years of reincarnation, and several decades of life, it can be said that Zhao Xiang dedicated all his youth to Yangyang Publishing House, and ten years ago, he was also growing up rapidly, and now he has become an independent blocker.
Seeing the pride and pride in Zhao Xiang's eyes, Zhao Ze shook his head and smiled: "Brother Zhao, standing at thirty, could it be that you want to keep Yangyang Publishing House, it is the best, you may become the editor-in-chief, and you will never grow old like this?" ”
"Ugh!"
Zhao Xiang looked at the back of Zhao Ze who was leaving, and for a while, savored Zhao Ze's words.
"Standing at thirty, could it be me Zhao Xiang, and I will not succeed in my life?"
"What about the Ming Dynasty?"
In the entire bookstore, the first part of the newly published "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", under the strong supervision of Fu Chen, appeared in various bookstores in the entire Dancheng very quickly, and some readers, looking forward to such a book, were first attracted by this title.
"Could this be a story of history? Emperor Hongwu, is it written about Zhu Yuanzhang? ”
A student wearing the uniform of Dancheng No. 1 Middle School looked at the book and picked it up carelessly, but after flipping through it, he fell into it completely.
"Hehe, this writing is so interesting!"
"It's not history, it's more like a novel, but it's really funny."
"If history books can be written like this, why wouldn't students like it?"
In various bookstores, countless people, students, young people, and even middle-aged people and the elderly, read this novel, looked at this book, and felt that they couldn't put it down, and in less than half a day, it was like a tornado, sweeping the entire Dancheng.
On the first day, without any publicity, "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" directly sold 20,000 copies, which simply broke various records, after all, these 20,000 copies, just Dancheng sold 15,000 copies, and other places, because the printing is not in place, therefore, it is conceivable that if all places are also sold, the number can be imagined how terrifying it is.
In the whole of China, because the crackdown on piracy is quite severe, the purchasing power of the entire people is quite terrifying, but even so, the best-selling author sells 200,000 copies a year.
Therefore, for Zhao Ze, even if the sales of "The Legend of Wukong" are hot, he is still a newcomer, but on the same day, he bought 20,000 copies of the perverted results, which made Zhao Ze completely famous in the entire Dancheng literary circle for a while.
If the small success of "The Legend of Wukong" made Zhao Ze step into the industry of Dancheng writers, then the popularity of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" made Zhao Ze a well-known writer.
Such a hot sale also made Yangyang Publishing House feel shocked for a while, Fu Chen was even more excited, that night, he invited all the colleagues and colleagues of the publishing house to have dinner together, and at the same time, Fu Chen decided to discuss with Zhao Ze as soon as possible and publish the second volume.
On the second day, Yangyang Publishing House still maintained a calm and quiet atmosphere, and did not deliberately publicize it, and was not even prepared to seize the opportunity to carry out crazy publicity, however, a master of education in Dancheng, Shi Hui, published a manuscript.
"History can be written like that!"
The publication of "The Legend of Wukong", I just heard the name of Zhao Ze, in my opinion, a senior high school student, even if he writes a novel with fantasy colors, I don't feel unusual, and even for the advocacy of some geniuses, I have some disgust, because, in my opinion, there are too many young people who have aspirations, and such advocacy may destroy him.
However, this "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" made me feel shocked, with witty, humorous writing, and slowly telling the serious history, which can stimulate the interest of readers in the history and culture of our Chinese nation.
And I think that although this is only one, if I don't guess, there should be a few more follow-ups, and this first one can be seen that its general history books are different, focusing on the psychological description of historical figures, which makes people have endless aftertaste. At the same time, there are many characters involved, and the clues are complicated, and the Ming Dynasty is a powerful and prosperous dynasty, and I am curious about the next story.
Here, I also want to apologize to this little friend, seeing this book, I believe that there is really a genius, in addition, I also want to appeal, if the history of my Chinese school is all taught in this way, I believe that no one will find history boring anymore. ”
Although it is only a short manuscript, it is like a stone, stirring up a storm, who is Shi Hui? I'm afraid that everyone in the whole Dancheng knows about it, and no one knows that the first principal of Dancheng No. 1 Middle School, and among the many principals in Dancheng today, more than half of them are from his disciples.
Hugh said that it was someone else, even if the mayor saw Shi Hui, he didn't dare to be disrespectful, however, it was such a giant, and now, he publicly posted posts, praising and encouraging Zhao Ze, and even suggested that he should ask for a history textbook and learn from this book.
If it was said by others, I am afraid that most people would just take it as a joke, however, what Shi Hui said, perhaps, may not be true.
Due to Shi Hui's free publicity, on the second day, the sales of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" continued to be popular, Zhao Ze didn't know that he was now chasing the star level, he came to his father's company, and to Zhao Ze's surprise, there was a quarrel inside, which seemed quite chaotic.
"I'm telling you, I came to your Bowen decoration company to save worry, but what do you say you do? Hugh said that the rest is the construction material, and it was the light steel keel that was said to be good, but now, all of them have been replaced by wooden keels for me, are you an idiot for me? ”
Zhao Ze was outside, looking at an obese middle-aged man, at this time, his expression was extremely angry, and he shouted loudly.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Mr. Feng, this is our negligence, next, we will change the foreman for you again, and the materials must be the best, you can rest assured."
At this time, Zhao Yi smiled, bent down and said to the fat middle-aged man.
"What did you promise us? Is the designer the best? Supervision is the best? Is the foreman the best? But have you done it? Now, I don't want to do it, you can refund the bill directly, and, I wanted my friend to find you to decorate, so the quality of the decoration of the garbage, fortunately, I didn't introduce it to them. At this time, Mr. Feng said impatiently.
After Zhao Ze heard it clearly, an anger flashed in his eyes, he told Manager Liu that he must pay close attention to the construction site, and he also told his father before, as a decoration company, if it is said that the early stage, business promotion, and design are all software, then the construction and construction site are hard decoration.
Only if the terrain is good, only if the construction technology is advanced, then it is possible to do a good job of reputation, and the construction site is poor, which is fatal to the decoration company, but unfortunately, many decoration companies only want to take more orders, about the construction site, but do not pay attention.
"Mr. Feng, please give us another chance, this time, we will definitely do a good job." Although Zhao Yi was depressed in his heart, he still had a smile on his face.
"Forget it, at the beginning, I chose your company, one point is because the material you promised me, light steel keel, the surface has been treated with hot zinc, it will not rust or deform for a long time, and it is much stronger than the wooden keel.
Mr. Feng said, Zhao Yi is face turned pale, obviously, this time it was Zhao Yi's company that was at a loss, and looking at this situation, Mr. Feng had some power in the whole Dancheng, and the few people he brought with him did not return the order, and all started fighting directly.
"Dad, refund the order!"
Just when Zhao Yi was thinking about how to explain, Zhao Ze also understood that he couldn't hide it anymore, so he stepped over directly.
"Ozawa, why are you here?"
Looking at his son and seeing his embarrassed appearance, Zhao Yi's expression became more and more unpleasant.
"Uncle Feng, do you think this is good? The project fee will be refunded to you, and your decoration, next, continue to hand over to us for construction, we will not take a penny, and give you decoration to make up for our fault. ”
Zhao Ze glanced at his father, and then, towards the obese middle-aged man in front of him, he spoke directly.
"What?"
Mr. Na Feng and Zhao Yi both showed stunned expressions at the same time.
"Yes, Mr. Feng, do you think that's good?"
Zhao Ze glanced at his father, and at the same time said again to this Mr. Feng.
"Ha Luha, well, at a young age, I have some courage." Mr. Feng was slightly stunned, and then, Ha Lu Ha Da Lu smiled.
"Then it's decided, Dad, go and send someone to the finance to refund Mr. Feng!" Zhao Ze said with a faint smile.
He looked at this Mr. Feng and already recognized who this person was, so this transaction was not a loss.
"Okay, dad listen to you, who made your kid behave well recently, by the way, "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" is out quickly, haluha, my old friends also like to watch it." Zhao Yi also promised to Mr. Feng, and then told Zhao Ze.
"What? Boy, you say you are that Zhao Ze? ”
Mr. Feng's face was suddenly shocked, and he said in a lost voice.
"Uh, yes!"
Zhao Ze didn't know why Mr. Feng reacted so much.
"Damn, you said it earlier!"
Next, under the shock of everyone in the entire company, Mr. Feng directly took out ten copies of "The Legend of Wukong" and ten copies of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" from his bag, threw them to Zhao Ze, and said with a dry smile: "Which one, Zhao Ze, help sign a name?" ”
