"Editor-in-Chief Lou: Mr. Ji, excuse me.

Editor-in-Chief Lou: The overseas publication of several of your works is progressing steadily, and "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" will still be released at the time agreed with you.

Editor-in-Chief Lou: At present, some editions have been printed, and many readers are already looking forward to it. I believe that "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" can still bloom its own light in the overseas market and achieve great results!

Editor-in-Chief Lou: In addition, recently, on the Internet in Europa, there have been a few other publishers, and other books have used some grandstanding clown tactics to try to seize the popularity of your new book release.

Editor-in-Chief Lou: But don't worry, those works are like grasshoppers shaking trees, and those small publishing houses are like mantis arms as cars. Although some of the works are not bad, they are still far from Mr. Ji's works.

Editor-in-Chief Lou: Delvin Publishing House will also increase its investment in publicity resources, and I believe that when Mr. Ji's work is released, the small movements of those books will be directly drowned. ”

Delvin Publishing is not like Bert, which has a top general publishing house to back on.

But Delwin is a big publishing house in its own right.

As the home of the Delwin Press, the movement on the Internet in Europa, the Delwin Press is naturally keenly aware of it.

And the reaction was more direct than that of Burt Press.

For Carroll of Bert Publishing, it would take 20 days for Mr. ABC's work to be completed, and even if it were printed and bound step by step in advance, plus other work, it would be a month before it was officially released.

In this gap, it is good for others to publish and publicize it, as long as it does not rub the heat directly on Mr. A, and he will not deliberately target it.

Of course, Bert Press will also promote Mr. A's new book, and it would be embarrassing if Bert Press's publicity drowned out the popularity of some books.

And for Delvin Press,

"Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" will be released overseas this Saturday,

At this time, a book popped up, and a small publishing house that had never heard of a name dared to seize the popularity of the new book by the dog author.

That is a direct collision with Delvin Press.

You can publish, and at this time to seize the popularity of dog authors is to tease the tiger whiskers of Delwin Press.

Then don't blame me for Delwin Publishing for pressing you with resources, and don't blame us for reacting to your behavior of preempting the popularity of dog authors.

It's so domineering.

This way

Looking at the message sent by the editor-in-chief Lou of Delvin Press,

Ji Zhuo paused, a little silent, and didn't seem to have anything to reply.

He has no reason to dissuade Editor-in-Chief Lou's decision, after all, the two big ones suppress the small trumpet, and squeezing the popularity of the trumpet is a matter that has been set before.

Even against Editor-in-Chief Lou, the 'dog author' has no position to oppose Editor-in-Chief Lou's behavior of increasing publicity.

It's the editor-in-chief Lou who is a bit domineering,

makes Ji Zhuo feel like a classic villain, suppressing another newcomer.

It's just that another author, too, is him......

Just let Ji Zhuo, a little relieved that everything is going according to expectations,

It's also a bit complicated.

"Clumsy and extraordinary: Well, thank you Editor-in-Chief Lou."

Ji Zhuo could only reply to a message like this.

Editor-in-Chief Lou: This is what a publishing house should do. You can rest assured that Delvin Publishing will do everything we can to get it done.

Editor-in-Chief Lou: Let your excellent works get his great results! ”

Editor-in-Chief Lou slapped two more rainbow farts over, and Ji Zhuo looked at it without any fluctuations.

"Clumsy and extraordinary: Well, thank you."

Ji Zhuo was about to end the exchange with Editor-in-Chief Lou,

But Editor-in-Chief Lou doesn't seem to want to,

"Editor-in-Chief Lou: Mr. Ji is polite.

Editor-in-Chief Lou: Mr. Ji, are you still busy at this time? ”

This sudden greeting made Ji Zhuo feel a little bad,

"Clumsy and Extraordinary: ...... Editor-in-Chief Lou has anything else, just say it directly.

Editor-in-Chief Lou: Nothing. Just thinking that your "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" will be published in various languages.

Clumsy and Extraordinary: Hmm......

Editor-in-Chief Lou: Many readers are looking forward to it...... There are also many readers who are also looking forward to whether there will be some signed books this time.

Clumsy and Extraordinary: ......

Editor-in-Chief Lou: So Mr. Ji, can you take time out of your busy schedule to sign some signed books in various languages of "The Shepherd Boy Seeks Immortals"?

Clumsy and Extraordinary: ......

Humble and extraordinary: a thousand. Couldn't be more. ”

Ji Zhuo read the first half of the sentence and guessed what Editor-in-Chief Lou wanted to say.

"Editor-in-Chief Lou: Okay, thank you, Mr. Ji."

Editor-in-chief Lou directly agreed.

Ji Zhuo looked at it and felt that it was okay, plus the 1,000 copies that Bert Publishing needed to sign,

It's only two thousand, and Ji Zhuo can still accept it.

"Editor-in-Chief Lou: After that, I will send the printed versions of "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" to Mr. Ji?

Clumsy and Extraordinary: Hmm. ”

Ji Zhuo ended the exchange with Editor-in-Chief Lou,

Raised his head and looked,

The little chubby dun who was playing games under the gazebo before had already slipped away, and the two little tails who were watching chubby dun play games there were also gone.

The pavilion is quiet again, reflecting the lights in the adjacent residential buildings, and you can see the slightly brighter night sky of the city above.

After looking at it, Ji Zhuo got up and went back to the house.

……

“…… Let's go and prepare an event for the overseas version of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals". ”

"Use the official good, send a promotional draft to forward the lottery, and the prize is the signed book of the overseas version of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals".

On the other side, Editor-in-Chief Lou, who ended his communication with Ji Zhuo,

Turning his head and shouting at the assistant.

What's her name?

She just treats others the way she does.

What kind of El Publishing House uses this means to seize the popularity of the dog author's work, right?

Let's see who has the most readers right now.

Thinking about it, Editor-in-Chief Lou felt satisfied.

"Retweet the lottery?"

The assistant got up, then froze in place.

"What's wrong? What's the problem? ”

“…… No, I just saw that Burt Press also sent a promotional draft for the retweet of the lucky draw, using the signed book of "Imperial Epic" as a prize to promote ABC's new book "Shadow Empire". ”

"This Bert Press is really shameless, he follows what others do, and there are no new tricks."

Editor-in-chief Lou scoffed.

The assistant next to him listened and was silent.

We seem to be the same.

“…… By the way, when did Bert Press send out the promotional draft? Why haven't I seen it before, is it already very popular? ”

"No, it was just a few minutes ago."

"Retweeted so soon?"

Editor-in-Chief Lou raised his head and glanced at his assistant.

The assistant was a little distracted...... Of course, because she follows the official account of Bert Press,

In addition, she is also looking forward to ABC's new book, and she also wants ABC's signed book.

She's not an inner ghost, but she's a reader of a dog author, so how can she not read ABC's work.

Therefore, she also used her own trumpet to forward the promotional draft of Bert Press.

"You go too, make a propaganda draft, and send it out as soon as possible."

"Okay."

The assistant answered and hurriedly left.

Editor-in-Chief Lou glanced at it and turned his head, thinking about one more thing.

Mr. Ji will sign 1,000 signatures this time,

Does she want to get the inside story down?

As an avid reader of dog authors, she also wanted a whole set of signed books by dog authors.

……

"Ah~ha......"

slept until it was close to noon, and Ji Zhuo was woken up by the repeated sound of message prompts.

He was already thinking about whether he should mute his phone later.

I got up from the bed with a yawn, and I could faintly hear the wind blowing through the green plants in the old neighborhood outside the window.

Sitting on the edge of the bed,

There were still some people who had just woken up and were dazed, Ji Zhuo sat for a while,

I touched my phone and saw who disturbed his dream.

Well

There was no surprise at all, it was a message from Al.

"Mr. al:I, the second day of sales of "Ordinary and Great" has come out.

AL: It's a lot more than yesterday.

al: Mainly thanks to the excellence of your work, Mr. I, every reader has given a high evaluation after reading it, and many readers are recommending your work.

al: In addition, thanks to the stimulus from you, Mr. I, who provided the autograph, the campaign that started yesterday has achieved good results.

AL: Yesterday, the Ordinary and the Great sold 1,824 copies. ”

Looking at the time and calculating the time difference, it was probably early morning on El's side.

After a few words of praise, it was finally the sales data of yesterday's "Ordinary and Great",

More than 1,800 copies, compared to the sales of more than 1,700 copies on the first day,

It's probably an increase of less than a hundred, but Al said that there has been a lot of growth.

Because in fact, normally speaking, the sales on the second day are definitely not as good as the sales on the first day.

In this case, if sales do not fall on the second day, it means that a new batch of readers has appeared.

It's not just the scattered readers brought by the bookstore channel itself, but the most important thing is that word-of-mouth is fermenting, and promotional activities are working.

So when I see this sales,

Al breathed a sigh of relief,

Although there are not many sales now, he has enough confidence in Mr. I's works,

As long as there are readers reading Mr. I's works, as word of mouth spreads, this sales will continue to rise against the trend.

Finally, the light of Mr. I's work, "Ordinary and Great", will be fully bloomed.

This way

Ji Zhuo looked at this news, and probably could see that for "Ordinary and Great",

The sales on the second day are really optimistic,

But Ji Zhuo's mentality is stable and ruthless,

First, this sales volume is a drop in the bucket from the current main career goal of the system.

After "The Ordinary and the Great" was determined to be the main professional task of the current period, the result of publishing sales was set at 900,000 copies, and it had to be within three months.

The second is that the current sales results are only because of yesterday's publicity, and today, the two publishing houses have reacted.

Naturally, it is impossible for Al Publishing House to continue to seize the heat, just relying on the self-propagation and diffusion among readers.

Waiting for word-of-mouth to ferment, these all take time, especially now that the readership base is not large.

Maybe the delay can make Ji Zhuo drag it out for three months.

"Clumsy and extraordinary: thanks to Al Publishing for their efforts."

"Clumsy and extraordinary: However, even if the grades are not so good, it is only the reason for my work, and it has nothing to do with Al Publishing House and Al Editor-in-Chief."

Ji Zhuo replied.

And on the other side,

Editor-in-chief Al looked at the message replied by Mr. I,

But he just shook his head and couldn't help but sigh,

Mr. I has always been so considerate of others, putting all the credit on Al Press, but putting the blame on himself.

Knowing that Mr. I is not burdened for the sake of El Press, he can let go of his fists and feet,

But every time he saw Mr. I's words of trust, Al was still a little moved.

So how dare you live up to this trust.

"al: Thank you, Mr. I, for your affirmation of the publishing house, and the publishing house will continue to do its best to ensure that your work shines smoothly."

There is nothing to say, it is enough to repay this trust with all your might!

"Clumsy and extraordinary: huh...... Thank you. ”

Then, Al talked to Ji Zhuo about the release of various channels and language versions.

Probably the main source of today's sales is still in the White Flag country, followed by the English version and the Russian version.

After saying that,

Al ended his conversation with Mr. I.

This way

After Ji Zhuo and Al communicated,

After a pause, he put down his phone and got up to wash.

And on the other side,

White Flag Country.

It's still early in the morning outside the house,

Most of the pedestrians on the road downstairs outside the window are in a hurry, rushing to work or study.

Al was already sitting in the publisher's office.

To be precise,

Al and his wife, Penny, hadn't left the publishing house since last night.

In order to live up to Mr. I's trust and better handle related work,

Al and Penny slept on the couch at the publishing house last night.

But even so, Al still seems to be in good spirits at this moment.

After communicating with Mr. I,

Al turned his head again and looked at the computer screen next to him,

In addition to displaying the previous day's sales data from booksellers from various channels, the screen shows

The bottom window also shows the relevant discussions on the Internet.

closed the table of sales data, looked at the relevant discussions on the Internet,

Al, who was relaxed just now, gradually became solemn again.

Although it has long been known that it is impossible for those two big publishing houses to watch Eyre Publishing House, and Mr. I's work "Ordinary and Great" to seize the popularity of writers in their publishing houses,

Especially in the stall where the work of the Dervin publishing co-author 'Dog Author' was about to be released in Europa and elsewhere.

They're sure to react to the Eyre Press's rush to the heat,

It's just that when the moment actually comes,

The propaganda of those two publishing houses was really a tsunami, and it was drowned in one fell swoop.

It's like two waves in the ocean, and the works of Al Press and Mr. I are currently just a flat boat.

It is necessary to cover up the works of Al Press and Mr. I with some other new books released at the same time, and the new books of small authors.

Al felt the weight of the pressure.

“…… What? A signed book by the 'dog author'? Retweeted! ”

"Please don't retweet this tweet, thank you, it will make this message flood all social platforms, it's not good, you know...... That way, I'm less likely to win a signed book. ”

"Damn, how can this be, I have prepared the money to buy a hundred copies of "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals", hoping to win the lottery to sign the book, why is this happening. Retweeted. ”

"The signed book of the Imperial Epic? I seem to have it, but that doesn't stop me from wanting another one! ”

At this moment, the Internet is full of dog authors and ABC heat,

When the Delvin and Burt publishers also used the methods of the previous Eyre Press,

With the resources of these two large publishing houses and the huge readership of the two writers,

The little bit of heat that Al Publishing House had seized before was not enough to watch in an instant.

Moreover, readers on both sides often retweet on both sides.

Is there a problem with my dog author's readers wanting this ABC signed book?

There is no problem, and vice versa.

Just pity Al Press,

It was so silently drowned.

In related topics, it seems that there is no shadow of "Ordinary and Great".

But......

Al looked at the 'huge waves' like a tsunami on the Internet with a heavy face,

Then go back to the promotional draft of the retweet lottery posted by Al Publishing House earlier.

His face was heavy and softened a little.

Even in this case,

Even under the squeeze of two huge waves,

The popularity of "Ordinary and Great" is like a small flame,

But it still didn't go out like that, it burned tenaciously.

Even if you can't see any movement of "Ordinary and Great" on the Internet,

But offline readers will not stop admiring "Ordinary and Great" after reading.

So

Even so,

The number of retweets of the promotional draft of Aier Publishing House is still rising little by little.

Although it is far less popular than those two writers,

But it's still growing tenaciously little by little,

This means that new readers will see it, and new readers will buy Mr. I's work!
