Chapter 1349: Uneasy

The seventh day of the new year, six o'clock in the afternoon.

In the general manager's office of Rainbow Pictures, Groelan stood up and walked to the coffee machine, just put his empty cup on it, hesitated for a moment and then took it down.

He had already drunk four cups of coffee this afternoon.

If he continued to drink like this, Groelan suspected that he would probably not be able to close his eyes tonight as he had been on December 31 a few days earlier. This was too cruel for a "young" woman, so Gleland resisted the urge to drink something and put the cup on the table.

The waiting time is the most frustrating.

After a few laps around his office, Groelan took a deep breath and sat down in his boss chair again. Then he involuntarily picked up the mouse and looked at the news again that he had already watched countless times.

"Lao Bai once again topped the Chinese book sales list, and at the same time, he once again topped the annual sales list of world authors!"

"On the last day of the counterattack, Mr. Lao Bai once again created a miracle moment!"

"Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" and "Han Bo and Qingyun Bell" were on the shelves for the first week, and they were also in the top two of the Chinese book sales list."

"There has never been a grand occasion, one person's nine books have reached the top ten of the Chinese book sales list!"

……

Every time I read these news, especially the last one, Ge Hailan has a feeling like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit, and every pore on her body is full of comfort!

Nine books, all of them are Lao Bai alone!

Because of the huge publicity effect of "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" and "Han Bo and Qingyun Bell", not only these two books firmly occupied the top two sales lists, but also drove the sales of the first six books of the two series, and once again rushed into the list of major online malls after a long time!

As another work of Lao Bai, "No One Survives" also hitched a ride. If you look further back, there is also "Murder on the Western Express", which is also ranked thirteenth......

The cow exploded, is there any?!

But Gerhailan also knows that this is only because of two books...... Or that Lao Bai's fame is too great, resulting in a short-term sales explosion. And the reason for this situation is only because many people who have just learned about these two books have bought the first four books.

Short-term outbreaks are OK, but long-term lasts are not possible.

In fact, according to her judgment, it is estimated that the new book will be on the list next week, because old readers may not necessarily place an order or go to the bookstore as soon as possible, but it is estimated that there will be no drama in the case of old books......

But even so, it's a big hit!

Nine books are on the list at the same time, not to mention in China, it is estimated that it is the only one in the world!

Even if it's just for a week!

"Next, let's look at the overseas data."

After scanning the "old news" again, Gerhailan finally couldn't help but stand up again, and subconsciously glanced in the direction of her office door.

In China, the sales of "Han Bo and Qingyun Bell" are significantly higher than that of "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire", although it is only more than 600,000 copies short, but it means an absolute victory. But Gerglene is not concerned about domestic results now, but about overseas sales comparisons - she knows that the little wizard can't compare to the little magician, but if it's not too bad like the domestic one, that's enough to be satisfying......

"Gotcha! Get! ”

"Please come in!"

When there was a knock on the door, Groelan turned her head almost impatiently.

Soon her secretary walked in and shouted excitedly: "Mr. Ge, the publishing house has brought back the relevant data...... Oh my God, it's not easy! They have always had problems communicating with foreign publishers, and they are always ......"

"Alright, give it to me!"

Without waiting for the secretary to finish speaking, Gerliver stepped forward and snatched the document in her hand and couldn't wait to read it.

In fact, places like the New York Times and Japan's FIGO website have their own weekly book sales charts, and some have even been updated. But without exception, they are statistics that are only specific to their respective regions, and they are not necessarily accurate. And if you want to get the most accurate figures, you still have to wait for the publisher's own statistics.

The domestic data, Gerhailan has already gotten it.

After all, because it has the right to adapt the Little Wizard series, the relationship between Rainbow Pictures and Halo Publishing House is also relatively close, otherwise it would not have released the trailer in advance to cheer for the launch. But on the side of Seal Press, Rainbow Pictures has to wait for the Halo Press to be the second dealer of news.

Fortunately, the relationship between the two publishing houses is also good, and the results are finally obtained.

Merely......

After a general glance at the data, Grohland's eyes quickly dimmed, and at the same time, the snow-white teeth began to bite his lower lip, and he looked completely unconvinced.

However, the secretary hadn't noticed the change in the boss's expression, and continued excitedly: "Mr. Ge, our little wizard has sold 500,000 copies in the UK alone, plus the sales of the first four parts, more than 700,000 in a single week!" In addition, there are more than 400,000 in Germany, 800,000 in Japan, and 1.3 million in the United States......"

"Alright, don't say it!"

The more she listened, the more irritated she became, and she directly waved her hand to interrupt the secretary's words!

"Uh......"

Ignoring the secretary's stunned expression, Ge Hailan continued to say impatiently, "I know, you can go out first...... Help me close the door! ”

"Yes, Mr. Ge!"

It wasn't until now that the secretary noticed that Grohland's expression was not quite right, and she couldn't help but shrink her neck and walked out of her office carefully and quickly.

"Hoo ......"

It wasn't until the door was closed by the secretary from the outside that Ge Hailan let out a long breath, as if she had exhaled all the depression in her stomach, and her face suddenly became a lot better.

To tell you the truth, this result is really awesome!

No matter in which country, "Han Bo and Qingyun Bell" ranks second in sales, second only to "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire", which can be said to be a good result that no other Chinese writer has ever had. Even if it is Lao Bai himself, this achievement is second only to "No One Survives", which is quite a bull fork!

The problem is, just don't compare it to Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire!

Except in Japan, where there are only more than 200,000 fewer little wizards than little magicians, the gap between the two is more than double in any other country! Especially in the UK, the weekly sales of "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" are 1.9 million, nearly four times that of "Han Bo and Qingyun Bell"!

This gap is really a bit too big.

And more importantly, through the sales of this fourth book, Groelan found a very bad trend, that is, the sales and influence of the little wizard are rising rapidly, but the rise of the little wizard is slowing down, which makes her feel uneasy......
