Chapter 80: An Unexpected Encounter

Fortunately, there are not many such readers, and Chen Zijiao's autograph meeting went well.

Wang Wenhong was also relieved to see Chen Zijiao sign his name on the last comic, and the book signing meeting finally ended smoothly.

Taking the mineral water handed over by Wang Wenhong, Chen Zijiao shook his fingers, and his hands felt like they were going to cramp.

"How many copies were sold today?"

"It's still counting, and the data estimate is coming out soon." Wang Wenhong pushed the frame, "Are you tired?" There will be two more tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. ”

"It's fine." The corners of Chen Zijiao's mouth were slightly upturned, and his eyes were sharp, "I will definitely win against Shen Xin." ”

The two chatted for a while, and the store manager came over with the data.

"Teacher Long, congratulations, I sold a lot of books this time." The store manager smiled, "There are more readers here than Mr. Shen last time." ”

"That's not, "Crumbling" is originally more popular than "Y's." Chen Zijiao showed a look of pride.

"How many copies have you signed?" Wang Wenhong asked.

"Signed 1,184 copies. plus other single books that have not been signed, a total of 1352 copies. The store manager said.

Wang Wenhong bowed slightly.

Although there is still a big gap between "Crumbling" and the single book of "Crime and Punishment", the responsibility does not lie with Chen Zijiao.

First of all, the scale of the Yunhai Roaming Bookstore is not as large as that of the bookstore in Hongchuan, and secondly, the sales of 7,000 copies on the first day of "Crime and Punishment" were completed by Su Han and cartoonist Hop Hop together, and Su Han did not sign up for 4,000 books separately.

Albeit......

The gap between 4,000 and 1184 is a bit big.

Chen Zijiao bowed slightly, even more proud.

"How many copies of "Y's" were signed not long ago?"

“《Y's》? I want to think about it...... Probably less than 1,400 copies, right? The store manager recalled.

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

Wang Wenhong and Chen Zijiao were stunned and a little confused.

Then, Chen Zijiao looked impatient and his eyes widened, "Why...... There weren't many readers who attended the "Y's" autograph session, but "Y's" sold better? ”

"Mr. Shen's readers...... Very few people buy just one copy. ”

Wang Wenhong frowned slightly when he heard the store manager's explanation, that is to say, readers' recognition of "Y's" is far greater than that of "Crumbling".

Chen Zijiao's eyes widened, pondered for a moment, turned his head to Wang Wenhong and said, "There will be book signings tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, right?" ”

"That's right."

"That's good, I must have enough energy to sign more books tomorrow." Chen Zijiao held his breath, he didn't believe it, he couldn't compare to the Shen Xin.

So he-

The next day, 733 books were signed at the AEON bookstore;

On the third day, 526 books were signed at the Shell Micro Bookstore.

A total of 32,000 copies were sold in the first three days, and the magazine also republished "Crumbling".

Before Shen Xin went home, he saw this news from "Manjia.com", and posts related to "Crumbling" gradually increased on the forum.

However, the focus of these readers is not so much on "Crumbling" itself, but on who will win the showdown between "Crumbling" and "Y's".

"Originally, "Y's" was not much ahead, but this time "Crumbling" was the first to be released, selling 32,000 copies in three days, and the sales have surpassed "Y's" by 10,000 copies, and tomorrow "Y's" will be officially released, but "Crumbling" is also in the limelight...... To be honest, I don't see anyone who can have the last laugh for a while. ”

"Please, no matter how you say it, this is also Mr. Su Han's work, the results will definitely not be too bad, it is estimated that in a short period of time, "Crumbling" is in the leading position."

"Leading by 10,000 copies is indeed a lot, but "Y's" is not a popular work like "Punishment", and it is still a little difficult to recover the gap of 10,000 copies."

"But then again, since the first volume of 'Y's' sold more than 'Crumbling,' there's a chance for a second volume as well."

"It's a different story. Last time, there was no work like "Crime" that affected "Y's", but this time, "Crumbling" and "Crime" will both affect "Y's" sales. ”

"It's useless to say more now, wait until tomorrow, you should be able to judge one or two."

"Also, I'll see it tomorrow, right?"

……

"Teacher Shen, don't be angry with them."

Gao Hang looked at the relevant post and felt a little uncomfortable.

The second volume of "Y's" has not yet been released, and some people look down on "Y's", which is really arbitrary.

"It's okay, I've been through a lot." Shen Xin explained.

On the bright side, although "Y's" is more famous on the outside, this meager fame is not enough to make up for the gap of 10,000 copies.

If there is one word to describe his mood, it is "apprehension", and he is not sure if he can reverse the disadvantage of 10,000 copies in one fell swoop.

"By the way, rest tomorrow, the two of you have been tired for so long, it's time to relax." Shen Xin said with a smile.

'No, you can't!' The battle isn't over yet, I can still hold on! "I'm going to roam the bookstore tomorrow, even if it's just to serve tea and pour water." ”

"I'll go too." Lu Ning's tone was firm.

Shen Xin didn't care.

"If you don't rest tomorrow, you still have to work the day after tomorrow, you have to think about it carefully."

"Don't think about it, I'm full of motivation right now!" Gao Hang is full of confidence.

Lu Ning also bowed slightly, "I don't have an exam tomorrow, so it's no problem to help in the past." ”

Shen Xin rubbed his nose, not knowing if this was a good start.

Early the next morning, Yan Fei drove the company's car and drove Shen Xin to the roaming bookstore.

Due to their previous experience, Shen Xin and Yan Fei decided to set off a little earlier.

He only has one autograph session, and he will continue to draw the original manuscript tomorrow, so he is short of time, so he wants to take the opportunity of today to sign as many books as possible.

"I've already signed a book for sale, will readers lose their freshness?" Shen Xin said worriedly.

Today is not the weekend, and there will not be too many readers who come to buy books deliberately.

"There is this possibility, and last time, I also carried out some activities, which attracted a lot of people other than "Y's" readers to buy books, but this time I used these small tricks, the effect will be greatly reduced, and the result will be half the effort, so the magazine is not ready to carry out any more activities." Although Yan Fei said this, she was still full of confidence in this autograph session, and the reason was the quality of "Y's" itself.

"No, the president has helped me a lot."

"Huh? Have it? ”

"Of course, readers will have a 95% discount if they order two copies by mail at one time." Shen Xin reminded.

"Oh - I remember, but this is supposed to be aimed at domestic readers, right? What will it be for? ”

"The president can also see that Y's needs a domestic market." Shen Xin said.

The car turns, and the roaming bookstore also comes into the field of vision of the two people.

Roaming bookstores are located at intersections, and there are many pedestrians passing by, and it is for this reason that many people habitually turn into bookstores when passing here.

"Sister Yan, there don't seem to be too many people here today."

After Yan Fei parked the car, Shen Xin came out of the car and was a little embarrassed when he saw the long queue.

said that it was a "long line", and it was probably more than a hundred people.

There were several young people who were about to line up, and immediately a clerk came over.

After two or three sentences, the young man left the group and entered the bookstore through the passage on the other side.

At the same time, there were also readers who came out of the bookstore with a single book of "Y's" and lined up.

It's just that there are far fewer people who join the queue than there are who enter the bookstore.

"What's going on?" Shen Xin was surprised.

Yan Fei shook her head, also puzzled, just wanted to go into the bookstore with Shen Xin to ask the store manager, and suddenly noticed that Chen Zijiao was standing on the side of the road.

Chen Zijiao also found Shen Xin and Yan Fei, looked disdainful, and gave a thumbs up.
