Chapter 50 Sales

Two days have passed since the Lin Mu novel was posted.

Ye Liang called Lin Mu.

"Lin Mu, I've read your novel, and it can be published."

"Hehe, that's good."

"Thank you for entrusting me with such a good novel."

"What are you talking about, don't I only know you, the boss of a publishing house, and you are still an audience in my live broadcast room, with this relationship, I'm afraid that you won't be able to cheat me?"

"Haha, that's good, but thank you, the publishing market is unstable now, with a book like yours, I believe that today my publishing house is finally going to be second-named."

"I'll give you a 12% share of the royalties, this is the treatment of top celebrities, and the money for the text is 200 thousand words, what do you think?"

"Forehead ......"

"Too low?"

"No, it seems to be too high, you give me a price of 200 per thousand words, plus a 12% share, then aren't you afraid of losing?"

"Haha, you underestimate me too much, I've been the owner of a publishing house for so many years, I don't know if any book can be popular, don't worry, I've been moved and missed for a long time after reading your book, and it will definitely sell well, and I'll still make a lot of money with you when the time comes."

"Okay, since you say so, I can't push out the money I have."

"Okay, I'll draw up the contract directly, you come over then, forget it, I'll go directly to you to sign the contract."

"Okay, but let me tell you first, this book is only given to you for publishing rights, and I don't have time to sign for sales, so I'm afraid I'm going to trouble you with this question."

"It's okay, I just need to publish the rights and, so be it, I'll find you later."

"Okay, it's still the same old place."

In the afternoon, the two met for the second time and signed a contract, and Lin Mu received the price of 200 thousand words and a 12% royalty share.

Lin Mu's book has about 15w words, and according to 150,000, the price of 200 thousand words is about 30,000 yuan.

After signing the contract, Ye Liang transferred the money to Lin Mu and transferred it to the account.

It doesn't seem like a lot, but you must know that this book is only 15w words, and if it is millions of words, then Lin Mu has made a lot of money.

Of course, maybe if Lin Mu wrote millions of words, Ye Liang would not have been able to come up with such a price.

On December 1, after more than half a month of printing and publicity, Lin Mu's new book finally began to be put on sale.

Ye Liang sat in his office at this time and mobilized all his contacts, and sent the first batch of printed 10w books to all major bookstores.

Of course, it's just a bookstore in Pearl City, and now he doesn't have the ability to sell it to all parts of the country.

He's now anxiously waiting for today's sales to see if he's wrong.

Finally, the sales data for the first day came out.

5981 copies.

In Mingzhu City, it can be said that nearly 6,000 books were sold on the first day, but Ye Liang promoted so much and put up a banner in the bookstore, which is a bit too much to say about this achievement.

But he was not discouraged, until this kind of book needs readers to promote a little bit, only people who have read it with their hearts will like this book, and then word of mouth, sales will rise even more.

The next day, 7,564 copies were sold.

On the third day, 10,258 copies were sold, breaking 10,000 for the first time.

Ye Liang knew that the time had come, and immediately ordered him to print 50w copies immediately.

Although his employees didn't know why their boss was so optimistic about a book, the first printing of 10w only sold 20,000 copies, and the second batch was immediately printed.

And it's still 50w, but they still do it obediently.

Lin Mu also promoted his new book during his live broadcast, although he didn't know if anyone would buy it, but he also did his part.

On the fourth day, sales finally began to climb sharply, reaching 52,841 copies.

Ye Liang immediately began to prepare for online sales on the Internet, put the book on the shelves of Dangdang.com, and announced the data, and directly appeared on the new book sales list on the first day.

In the next few days, according to readers' stories, "The Girl I Chased in Those Years" became popular, on the street, in the subway, on the Internet, QQ groups, post bar, and everywhere you can see people, there are people discussing this book.

"After reading this book, I remembered my youth, which was also so chic, but I had a positive result with the female classmate I liked, and now we have our first baby, which is four months old."

"Envy upstairs, I remember chasing our school girl when I was in high school, and then it took three years to go downstairs to wait for her every day, but I only waited for one sentence, you are a good person, hehehe."

"With envy, I just chased our class for three years and only said two words to him, the first sentence was hello, the second sentence was what she said, who are you, three years, he didn't remember my name."

"It's really a sad story, it means that no first love is passing by, and reading this book means that I seem to have a second spring, don't stop me, I'm going on a blind date."

……

There are countless words like this, and the word-of-mouth that has slowly accumulated has finally exploded, and in the major bookstores in Pearl City, the book was sold out, and then the owners of the major bookstores called to urge the goods.

Ye Liang has been smiling for the past two days, the phone has never stopped, often this phone is hung up, and the next call comes again.

Moreover, many bookstores from other places saw this situation and began to come to him to buy goods, helping him open up a road to all parts of the country.

After half a month of frenzied sales, the sales of this book have broken 100w!

Piracy also began to run rampant, but sadly they were disappointed, and they thought that if they pirated a book for 20 yuan, they could sell a lot if they only sold it for 10 yuan.

But the secret is as they want, the number of people who buy pirated copies is very small, and it can be said that the number of people who buy books is pitiful, because the people who buy books don't just want to see the contents.

What they need is a kind of solace for their souls, what they need is nostalgia for the past, if the price of pirated copies is about the same as that of genuine copies, why should they buy pirated copies?

If you buy a genuine version, you can hide it on the bookshelf after reading it, and you can continue to read it when you want to read it, but pirated books do not have this effect, and the book is often tattered after reading it twice.

And not to mention the question of whether the words inside can be read clearly.

The huge sales of this book have further stimulated the activity of the book market, and the sales of many books such as urban small freshness have increased a lot in the same period.

At the same time, there are also many people who remember the name Lin Mu.
