Chapter Twenty-Eight: Sales Soar
"Editor-in-Chief Shi, this data is actually barely reasonable!" On this day, in the editor-in-chief's office, Yan Xiaokang deliberately found Zhengshi Chuanfeng and said, "But the problem is ...... This is a book that you paid 80 yuan per 1,000 words to sign, and this sales volume is a bit too inconsistent with this price, right? ”
Just now, Yan Xiaokang got the sales data of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" on the first day of its release, and 73 copies were sold after the entire Rongcheng was released, which is still good for the average newcomer and new book...... But behind it is the price of 80 yuan per thousand words!
This price, this sales, is a bit mismatched.
Outside the office, many people quietly came over to listen to the excitement, and heard the needlepoints of the two editors-in-chief facing Mai Mang, and they were very enthusiastic about being able to join in the fun.
At the same time, they are also discussing:
"Editor-in-chief Shi this time is 80 yuan per 1,000 words, such a high price, in exchange for 73 copies sold, but it's a bit disgraceful."
"Yes, this time Editor-in-Chief Shi is very difficult to explain to Mr. Wu, but Mr. Wu has the greatest trust in Editor-in-Chief Shi."
"Not necessarily, after all, this book is only on sale on the first day, and it always takes a process for sales to get better." Someone retorted.
In the office, Shi Chuanfeng also retorted: "Editor-in-Chief Yan, you are a little too anxious, this book has just been put on the shelves, and Li Chencan is a newcomer, do you think that his book will be like some big writers, and it will always take an adaptation period when he comes up on the first day." ”
Shi Chuanfeng's words sounded a little reasonable, but in Yan Xiaokang's place, it was only exchanged for his unfathomable smile: "Oh? Is it? However, a book on the first day is usually enough to reflect the sales of the book...... What's more, since Editor-in-Chief Shi is so confident, Weishenme won't come over until the afternoon today? Isn't it because we feel that the sales of the book are too low and we are embarrassed to see us? ”
"You ......" Shi Chuanfeng paused: "Editor-in-Chief Yan, please don't go too far!" ”
Although he said this sentence very loudly, everyone knows that this guy is already a bit strong and competent.
Shi Chuanfeng was indeed aware of the sales of seventy-three copies on the first day, so he felt that it was not good to come to see these people in the morning, so he hid at home and pretended to be sick, and only came over in the afternoon.
Yan Xiaokang, as his old opponent for several years, has an understanding of Shi Chuanfeng in his bone marrow, so he can naturally know what his idea is.
Now, Yan Xiaokang has ruthlessly exposed Shi Chuanfeng, so the exposed Shi Chuanfeng is like a cat that has been stepped on by the tail, and he jumped up all of a sudden.
Seriously, the sales of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" on the first day also disappointed him, because of this disappointment he wanted to hide at home, but now that he was exposed by his old opponent in person, he couldn't get off the stage.
Yan Xiaokang saw that Shi Chuanfeng was already annoyed, and smiled: "Okay, Editor-in-Chief Shi, after three days, the books on the shelves will be moved, and I don't know where "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" will be moved to when the time comes?" ”
The people outside the room listened to Yan Xiaokang's cheap voice, some gloated, and some sighed for Shi Chuanfeng, this time Shi Editor-in-Chief is about to have a storm!
"Editor-in-Chief Yan, please go out!"
Shi Chuanfeng was so angry that he could only use this method......
Yan Xiaokang likes to watch Shi Chuanfeng like this...... You are so gullible to trust a young man, is it a mistake now?!
Yan Xiaokang was about to walk out of the office with a swagger, intending to accept the admiring gaze of those colleagues outside, but at this time, a person came outside.
This person is a staff member responsible for the communication between the publishing house and the major bookstores, that is, he is responsible for communicating between the publishing house and the major bookstores.
"Xiaomi, what are you doing? Panicked? Yan Xiaokang has just walked out of Shi Chuanfeng's office, and now he has put on the majesty of the editor-in-chief to say a word to Yan Xiaokang.
Shi Chuanfeng, who was in the office, was still sulking at this time, Yan Xiaokang was too much! It's too much for him to stand it.
How so? Even if you are a political enemy, you shouldn't go too far, right?
Shi Chuanfeng held back the anger in his stomach and had nowhere to spill.
Could it be that I am really wrong? "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" has no possibility of fire at all? But what about Weishenme's book that attracted him so strongly? You must know that Shi Chuanfeng is also a person who has read countless papers.
But now is he going to be angry at Li Chencan? No, after all, the book was signed by himself, and Shi Chuanfeng did not have the habit of being angry with others.
At this moment, the person called Xiaomi outside, a little out of breath, said to Yan Xiaokang: "Editor-in-chief Yan, it's like this, now there is a new set of books that most bookstores are sold out, and the bookstore asked me to take away the inventory in the publishing house!" ”
There are generally not many new books in bookstores, because there are too many and it is easy to mess up, and the stock is limited, so you need to communicate with the publisher at any time......
"What book? Sold out? What's going on? Yan Xiaokang suddenly had a little ominous premonition in his heart, and he didn't know where this premonition came from.
"It's "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" that just hit the shelves!" "The book was basically sold out today, and they told me to come and get it," Millet said. ”
"What?!" Yan Xiaokang seemed to have been beaten with a dull stick, his eyes were dark, and the world was spinning!
Just now, he used "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" to ridicule Shi Chuanfeng in every way, who knew that it was only a moment of hard work, and this "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" had such dramatic changes?
The surrounding employees also looked at Xiaomi with their mouths wide open, and they couldn't believe it.
"How is that possible?" Yan Xiaokang said: "Didn't "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" only sell a total of seventy-three copies yesterday! How is it possible to sell out all at once today? There are at least four or five hundred copies in the bookstore, right? ”
Xiaomi clapped his palms and said: "Oh, the bookstore owners also said so, yesterday I sold a mediocre book, but today I don't know what evil happened, and the sales rushed up all of a sudden!" You can't stop it! The highest bookstore sold 88 copies by noon today, do you think this is strange? ”
Yan Xiaokang's eyes are getting darker and darker...... You're not playing with me, are you?
At this moment, he almost felt that all the employees around him were watching his joke!
Just now, he used this matter to attack Shi Chuanfeng and ridicule him, but now things have suddenly changed dramatically, and he is the one who will suffer the humiliation!
Yan Xiaokang's face slowly turned red, and even his body had some goosebumps because of embarrassment, he frowned, knowing that this matter could not be suppressed!
Sure enough, the surrounding employees all had surprised and strange expressions.
""Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" is selling well today?" At this time, the door of the office was pushed open, and Shi Chuanfeng stood there with a smile on his face, at this moment, there was only a feeling of a farmer turning over and becoming a master.
Yan Xiaokang's face darkened, and he felt that his karma had come.
