Chapter 456: Qin Chuan's "New Year's Gift"
New Year's Day.
According to the custom of previous years, everyone should get up first to set off firecrackers, then have a lively reunion dinner, and then go to the nearby neighbors and friends' houses to visit the New Year.
Of course, he may not go out, but watch the replay of the Spring Festival Gala with his family at home, chatting about his parents' shortcomings.
But this year is a little different.
It's all because of this "The Condor Heroes".
Since Wang Xie used "Seven Weapons" to establish the definition of martial arts, and then used "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" to depict a magnificent martial arts epic.
Until now.
There is no bookstore that dares to underestimate martial arts, especially Qin Chuan's martial arts.
After all, no one wants to live with money.
The bookstore owners were also in pain and happy.
The painful thing is that on the first day of the new year, they have to get up early to sell books, which is simply too pitiful.
And the happy thing is that in this kind of festival, both the old and the young are idle and rich, and with the listing of Qinchuan's new book, they must be able to make a lot of money again.
So even if it's the first day of the new year.
The genius brightened up a little.
At the entrance of various bookstores in Dahua District, there are countless readers and book lovers who have lined up in a long line.
They all came to receive the gift of faith that Qin Chuan gave them.
After all, that's what the big sign at the door of the bookstore says.
""The Condor Heroes", Qin Chuan's New Year's gift to book friends!"
……
in a larger city.
The long queue of book lovers was anxiously looking at the closed door of the bookstore, and chatting lively.
"Oh my God, I thought there were so many people buying books during the Spring Festival."
"Haha, me too, fortunately I came early, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to buy it today."
"Teacher Qin Chuan's new book, it's really long-awaited."
"I like "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" so much, I hope this book is also good."
"I hear the name is similar, one "Shooting the Condor" and the other "Condor", it sounds very interesting."
"Why isn't the bookstore open, I'm freezing to death."
「……」
In a smaller township.
At the door, there were only a few people talking.
"It's good that I came early today, and there are not many people yet."
"Haha, "The Condor Heroes", I'm here!"
"It's not that there aren't a few people, it's that this broken bookstore won't open at all today."
"Does the boss not make money if he has money?"
"Who knows, maybe it's brains."
"Bai asked me to get up so early, I'd better buy it online, I guess it will be delivered tomorrow morning."
"No, I just received the news that the new bookstore in the town next door is in stock, so let's go buy it there."
"Okay."
「……」
Starting at 7 a.m., this conversation appears on the doorstep of almost every bookstore in Dahua.
However, even the owners of bookstores that opened late were actually sold out before 12 noon.
Even though they stocked up on more goods than before, they were selling much faster than the "Legend of the Condor Heroes" at that time.
Because after Qin Chuan's many baptisms.
Everyone has no objection to Qin Chuan's work.
After getting the books from the bookshelf or one or several sets, they immediately ran to the cashier to pay and settle the bill, and then went home in a hurry to read the books.
Bookstore owners, on the other hand, only need to scan codes and collect money like an assembly line.
But even such a simple action made the bookstore owners complain, and this was the first time that they felt cramps in their hands when they received money.
12 noon.
Bookstore owners drag
After closing the door with a tired body, he was not in a hurry to go home and reunite with his family.
Instead, they picked up the phone and called "Literature" magazine.
Replenishment.
We're going crazy to restock.
……
Literary Magazine.
Even on the first day of the Lunar New Year, except for some leaders from other places, the rest of the leaders have also arrived.
This is also the first time in the history of "Literature" magazine.
in the conference room.
The editor-in-chief is briefing.
"A total of 10 million copies of the first batch of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" were printed, and 6 million copies have been booked out so far, and there are still 4 million copies left in the library, which is the current situation."
The editor-in-chief looked at Tian Kai: "Editor-in-chief Tian, what is the follow-up subscription situation, you can also introduce it to everyone."
Tian Kai nodded and spoke: "The replenishment applications received so far are about 4.5 million, and this value is still growing, so whether or not to add prints in the future, and how much to print, still needs to be discussed."
It's obviously a big New Year, and it's good news that can't be better, but Tian Kai's face looks like he has just died of a relative.
Looking at the other leaders who participated in the meeting, they were all not surprised, all of them were Tian Kai's same expression.
Finally, there was a leader who couldn't help it.
"Gan, what is Qin Chuan doing, don't you make money if you have it?"
As this leader spoke, other leaders followed suit.
"That's it, chivalrous couple, what special thing can be called chivalrous? Do you have to feed the readers?"
"It's disgusting!"
"The male protagonist has a broken arm, the female protagonist has lost her virginity, is Qin Chuan crazy? 6 million copies have been sold, which means that at least 6 million readers have seen it, if something really happens, our magazine and publishing house will be affected, and it is estimated that Qiming, which has just improved, will be exploded!"
"!"
「……」
Everyone scolded and scolded for more than ten minutes.
Tian Kai, who was silent for a while, raised his hand and signaled: "So whether the goods in the back will be sent or not, and then whether they need to be reprinted, and how much more they need to be printed if they are to be reprinted."
Tian Kai's question made everyone who was scolding shut up, and they didn't know what to do after looking at each other, so they all turned their eyes to the editor-in-chief.
The editor-in-chief's face changed several times before he finally gritted his teeth and made a decision: "Hair, we must send it, if they dare to fix it, we will dare to send it."
Later, the editor-in-chief added again: "However, we must do a good job of recycling, in case they want to cancel the subscription, we will refund the original price directly without saying a word, protect the interests of the terminal bookstore, and pay attention to the maintenance of channels."
Tian Kai continued to ask in a low voice, "What about reprinting?"
The editor-in-chief nodded heavily: "The print still has to be reprinted, just print another 5 million, no, 3 million, no, it's still 2 million copies."
The other leaders were a little anxious: "What if these books are not sold well if they don't sell well?"
"We won't lose money if we print another 2 million copies, although we won't make much money." The editor-in-chief leaned back in his chair with his eyes closed: "Let's just pay for Teacher Qin Chuan to buy a lesson, let him know that he knows that the will of the people cannot be violated, and I hope he can accept the lesson in the next book, after all, we are optimistic about him as a person, and we don't have to worry too much about the profits of one or two books."
Everyone nodded, they still believed in Qin Chuan's literary skills and his grasp of the market.
The editor-in-chief nodded: "Okay, that's it, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, everyone should go back early to accompany their families, I wish you all a happy Spring Festival."
It was only at this time that everyone smiled slightly.
"Wait."
Just as everyone said goodbye to each other and prepared to go back to their respective homes, the editor-in-chief spoke again.
Looking at everyone's puzzled eyes, the editor-in-chief said with a headache: "Strengthen the security of the magazine building, I'm afraid that readers will come to make trouble."
Tian Kai looked at the editor-in-chief in surprise: "Wouldn't it?"
The editor-in-chief smiled helplessly: "I hope not, but be prepared."
