Chapter 328: Readers Can't Just Read a Book

"Tweet ......"

The sun at noon was just right, and it was also shining through the window.

In the community outside the house, in the shade of the dense foliage, there are people passing by, and there are birds jumping lightly on the branches.

Ji Zhuo slept late last night, and only got up at noon this time.

In front of the sink, wash and brush your teeth in front of the mirror,

The phone with the screen on is leaning against the sink and the screen is on.

It shows that not long ago, the editor-in-chief of El Publishing House sent him a message.

"Al: Mr. I, take the liberty of interrupting.

AL: Do you know the winner of this year's Prix Goncourt? ABC, it is said that he is also Chinese. ”

When he sent this news, Al was also stunned, is the creative ability of Chinese writers so good now?

Such excellent works can shine internationally.

But that's how Al got his head in mind, after all, with Mr. I, a rookie writer, he has known three of them recently.

AL: Now because of his winning award for his work "Imperial Epic", his work and his opponent's work "Seven Days of Hell" are very popular.

al: And, according to ABC, his and the 'dog author''s new work will also be released in the near future, which is bound to steal a lot of the popularity.

al: Of course, I believe that your work is not inferior to either of these two writers, Mr. I, but unfortunately Al Publishing is not able to provide you with enough promotional resources.

AL: So in this kind of craze, it can have a detrimental effect on the release of your new work.

AL: So you see, do you want to delay the release of your work? ”

Ji Zhuo looked at these messages sent by Al,

Not much surprisingly, if Al Press didn't react to the excitement and heat of the online debate between ABC and Dog Author readers,

That only proves that his plan to be responsible for taking two big beatings has failed.

Now Al's attitude, doesn't it just prove that Ji Zhuo is doing the right thing?

So how could Ji Zhuo agree to delay the release of the new book.

In addition, I don't know if Al is not confident, or because I is a new writer who has no reputation.

If Carol or Lou were editors-in-chief, they would not say that his work was not inferior to anyone, but would say that it was better than anyone else, far better.

Thinking so, Ji Zhuo brushed his teeth with one hand, stretched out his other hand and tapped a few times on the lit phone screen, and sent a message back to Al.

"Clumsy and extraordinary: Mr. Al, how long is it going to be postponed?

Clumsy and extraordinary: postponed to next month, or next quarter? Avoiding these two writers, I think there will probably be other top writers in Europa and around the world.

Clumsy and extraordinary: you can avoid it for a while, but you can't avoid it for a lifetime. If Mr. Al is confident in my work, then I think it would be better to publish it as scheduled.

Clumsy and extraordinary: I don't think it will be easier for other top writers to meet than these two writers. ”

On the other side, Al stayed in front of the computer, waiting for Mr. I's reply.

Looking at the message that Mr. I had replied to, Al paused.

For this Mr. I's insistence on the original release time, Al has psychological expectations,

It is impossible for a writer who can write such an excellent work as "Ordinary and Great" without self-confidence that must belong to him.

But looking at Mr. I's message......

For now, the new works of other top writers may not be comparable to the new works of these two writers.

It's not that there is no writer more powerful than ABC and dog authors,

It's just that it's just more popular, and there are really few writers who can compare.

"Mr. al:I, of course I have confidence in your work......"

Al replied anyway.

"Clumsy and extraordinary: that's enough. Then go on sale at the scheduled time without delay.

Clumsy and extraordinary: Even if those two writers are popular enough, I don't think readers can just read one or two books, there will always be other reading needs.

AL: Hmm...... Naal Press will do its best to promote "The Ordinary and the Great", and try not to bury this excellent work. ”

Mr. I's words are all on the line, and Al can only answer like this.

"Clumsy and extraordinary: yes. If my work doesn't sell well, it's because my work itself isn't that good, and it has nothing to do with Mr. Al and your publishing house. ”

Ji Zhuo looked at the message that Al replied and comforted in advance.

"al: Mr. I, don't say that, your work is good enough, if it doesn't sell well, it's just that our publishing house hasn't done a good job."

This Al Editor-in-Chief......

It can only be published at that time, and after the sales are not good, I will persuade and comfort this editor-in-chief of Eyre.

Ji Zhuo raised his head from the screen of his mobile phone and continued to brush his teeth,

He seems to have seen the book "Ordinary and Great" hit the streets.

Aier Publishing House itself is a small publishing house, lacking resources and channels.

Under the squeeze of such a hot dog author and ABC, how can you get the attention of readers?

Breaking out of the encirclement?

Why?

The aroma of wine is still afraid of deep alleys.

Ji Zhuo thought about it, he had seen that beautiful vision,

Then I couldn't help but smile at the corner of my mouth,

"Gollum...... Burst. ”

brushed my teeth,

Ji Zhuo, who saw such good news early in the morning, was much more excited.

I feel like I can code a lot of content today.

As soon as the phone was thrown aside, Ji Zhuo entered the study.

Start today's codeword.

……

On the other side, Eyre Press.

Editor-in-chief Al arrived at the publishing house early in the morning,

After talking to Mr. I, Editor-in-Chief Al paused, then turned back to call his wife and assistant.

"Penny!"

"What's wrong? Finished talking to Mr. I? ”

"Hmm."

"Mr. I should still insist on the release at the scheduled time, right?"

"Yes."

"I think it's also true that writers who write such excellent works inevitably have some confidence, and I have confidence in this work. I believe that even under the siege and interception of those two writers, he can still achieve his own results. ”

"Chase and intercept? Other writers may not know our small publishing house and know "Ordinary and Great". ”

Hearing his wife's words, Al couldn't help but laugh,

After laughing, the originally heavy mood also relaxed.

And then his face was much firmer,

"But I also believe that even under the popularity of these two writers, and the release of new books at the same time as these two writers, Mr. I's works can still achieve good enough results!"

"Just like Mr. I said, it is impossible for readers to only read one or two books, and other works have no popularity at this time and are suppressed, because the other works are not good enough in comparison! And "Ordinary and Great" is no worse than any work! ”

Al said categorically, then stood up,

"However, we also have to do a good job in the sale of this work, and the publicity should be done as much as possible, even if there is not much popularity, but one more reader knows, one more reader buys, and there is more possibility of successful book sales."

"This is the best work that the publishing house has seen in so long, and we will do our best to publish this work, and we can't let this work fall into our hands!"

Penny smiled at Al, then answered,

"Yes, my editor-in-chief."

"Hmm...... What about literary translation? ”

"Professor Voss's side hasn't started yet, but it's said that I've taken that part of the manuscript and read it over and over again, and I'm going to start translating it after I get the full content and read it.

In addition, Professor Wirth also recommended a German translator for us, and I looked it up, who is also a top literary translator, and because of Professor Wiss, he is willing to give priority to translating "The Ordinary and the Great". ”

"Hmmm......"

The publishing house is busy again.
