From Jiang Ming was admitted to Jinshi, and then was appointed by the imperial court as the Qipinzhi County of Huainan County.

After taking office, he actively trained his troops to resist the Japanese and finally won the first battle, which was crucial.

The combined number of words of these plots has exceeded 100,000 words, plus the unpublished 40,000 words, which is enough to print a book and publish it on the market.

Although Chi Fei was not in the capital at that time, the golden shopkeeper of Juyazhai still took the initiative to come to Ah Zhi to discuss the publication of the ninth volume of "Rebirth".

Ah Zhi had already heard Chi Fei say the details about how to publish, and readily agreed.

So following the momentum of rave reviews for the latest chapter, Juyazhai quickly launched the ninth volume of "Rebirth".

As soon as the ninth volume was released, it was quickly sold out, and many people could only wait anxiously for the second edition to be released.

Some people may find it strange, now that Juyazhai has invited several time-honored bookstores to print books together, why is it still out of stock?

In fact, this is a suggestion that Chi Fei made to the shopkeeper Jin before leaving Beijing, called "hunger marketing strategy".

In other words, even if the supply is sufficient, it cannot be listed all at once, and it must be sold in batches. Create an atmosphere where supply exceeds demand, so as to better maintain the heat of the market.

In fact, Juyazhai had already printed more than 50,000 new books, but only 3,000 of them were sold in the first batch, so they were sold out as soon as they came on the market.

Of course, not all of these 50,000 new books were sold in the capital, and most of them were to be wholesaled to Jiangnan booksellers.

Because the market in the capital is so big, it can't eat these 50,000 goods at all. At most, you can only sell about 10,000 to 15,000 copies, which is already the limit.

If it were an ordinary bookstore, who would dare to print 50,000 copies in one go, and if it couldn't be sold, it would be a big loss.

But after more than two years of cooperation, Juyazhai and Chi Fei have established a tacit sense of mutual trust.

In addition, Chi Fei's fame is now in full swing, so he is not worried about not being able to sell books at all.

Sure enough, not long after the ninth volume of "Rebirth" was released, orders from foreign booksellers came in waves.

There are more than 57,000 booksellers in many places in the Jiangnan area alone, and booksellers in other places are not counted.

After seeing the orders of these foreign booksellers, Mr. Cao, the head of Juyazhai, was very arrogant and ordered the people below to print another 30,000 copies, enough for 80,000 yuan.

As it turned out later, Cao Dangjia's judgment was right. Not only were all of the 80,000 copies sold, but 5,000 copies were printed to meet the needs of all orders.

In this era, a book can sell more than 80,000 copies, so what is the concept? It's absolutely sell-out.

Even Mr. Banpo, who was popular all over the country 20 years ago, only sold about 65,000 copies of his famous works.

Of course, the number of pirated books is certainly greater than that.

At that time, the market was full of Mr. Banpo's pirated books, and there was no way to calculate the number of such books.

But no matter what, to be able to sell the script to this extent, Chi Fei is indeed the first person since the opening of the Great Wei Dynasty.

The main reason for this is the sketches that are present in every book.

Sketching is a hyper-realistic method of drawing that is unprecedented in this era.

Since each sketch is so detailed and realistic, it is impossible for others to make an engraving without the original drawing.

As a result, it is impossible for any pirated book of Chi Fei's work to have a sketch of a genuine book.

This difference between big and small is the main reason why many readers are willing to buy genuine books rather than pirated books.

Otherwise, the difference in printing quality alone is not enough to make so many readers willing to pay a higher price for a genuine book.

Only readers who are shy in their pockets and really like the book will have to choose cheaper pirated books.

Due to the success of "Rebirth", there are more and more authors who follow the trend and write the same type of script. It's the same as "Xianxia" back then.

Most of the protagonists of these scripts are the same as Jiang Ming, who was reborn back to his childhood, and he also carried out the plot with the reading of the imperial examination as the main line.

Maybe it doesn't sound like it's creative at all, it's just picking people's teeth.

However, in ancient society, everything was inferior, and only the general view that reading was high.

In the eyes of many ordinary people, only those who have really successfully been admitted to the imperial examination are the dragon and phoenix among the people who have descended from the Wenqu star, and reading the imperial examination is recognized as the right way.

If the protagonist does not take the imperial examination and takes the road of business, even if he is successful, he will only be an inferior businessman in the eyes of the reader, and there will be no bright spots at all.

Therefore, the author who followed the trend and wrote the rebirth essay had to let the protagonist in the book also take the path of the imperial examination.

Of course, it's not like there's no lack of innovation.

The book is interspersed with a lot of interactions between the male protagonist and other beautiful women, among which the cousin is the character who appears most frequently, followed by the famous lady who meets by chance on the road, or the famous Oiran.

is a traditional talented and beautiful woman, and by the way, the routine of opening a harem is just a shell of a rebirth text.

It's no wonder that these authors write like this, because people are originally born to write about talented and beautiful women, and if they really want to write a big scene like "Rebirth" similar to the war with the Japanese invaders, not many people can really write it well.

Just like Cao Xueqin is only suitable for writing "Dream of Red Mansions", not for "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

Of course, not all authors write according to this routine. There is an author who boldly sets the protagonist to be reborn back to the year before he was framed by the enemy to death, and the plot is carried out with officialdom as the main line.

At first, tens of thousands of words were written well, but later they began to crumble.

The IQ of the characters in the book is getting lower and lower, as if the protagonist can play the other party around with a little trick.

In addition, the character and personality of the protagonist have also collapsed, and compared to the beginning, it is like a different person.

In short, all this doesn't look like an officialdom at all, it's more like an intrigue in a certain village because of some trivial things, which makes it easy to make a play when you look at it.

Needless to say, the book sold poorly and ended dismally.

This is a typical example of writing about a subject that he is completely unfamiliar with and hitting the street.

In this ancient society where there is no Internet to check information and make tricks, a person who has never been in contact with and does not understand officialdom writes about officialdom, and there is only a ghost if he does not pounce.

If the ninth volume of "Rebirth" is a martial arts, then the next chapters are the plot of the literary drama.

This is one of Chi Fei's experiences in writing online articles back then, that is, to achieve one gallop, one loose and one tight.

In this way, the plot can have ups and downs and finally take shape.

Just like after the first war of the Japanese invaders, if you write about the second war immediately after, it will easily form an aesthetic fatigue for the reader.

In order to avoid this, it is necessary to add some different plots to make the reader feel fresh.

Of course, this is just some of Chi Fei's personal experiences, and even he can't say whether it's useful or not.

After all, a writer like him who has been on the street for many years is really not convincing at all......
