"Xi Yuan, don't you know how lively the bookstore at the school gate is today."

"Fortunately, I asked the bookstore owner to reserve an English version of 'The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals' for me in advance, otherwise I would have to wait with those poor fellows for the bookstore to restock, or wait for the express delivery for online purchases."

With the brand-new English version of "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" in his hand, the roommate said excitedly.

"The bookstore's "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" has been sold out? The bookstore owner didn't stock a little more? ”

"Of course he bought a little more, he bought five hundred copies of "The Shepherd Boy Seeks Immortals", but unfortunately, in our university alone, there are more readers of dog authors, and the residents of the residents obviously have many readers of dog authors."

Xi Yuan asked casually, and the roommate said excitedly.

"Xi Yuan, do you want to take a look together. It is said that the English version of "The Shepherd Boy Seeks Immortals", the translation is also personally controlled and modified by the dog author, and it must be the most in line with the original version! ”

"Nope. I've seen the original. ”

"Then I'll see for myself."

Answering again, the roommate happily tore open the plastic cover of "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals",

It's like a pilgrimage, first excitedly touched the cover, and then solemnly opened it,

before I started reading.

The reason for Xi is that he has read "The Shepherd Boy Seeks Immortals", but he is not as excited as his roommate.

For him, if he wants to buy the English version or other language versions of "The Shepherd Boy Seeks Immortals", he only buys it for collection.

You can buy it online later, or when the bookstore is fully stocked.

"Wasn't there excitement to promote "Ordinary and Great" before? Why don't you care about this book now? ”

Xi Yuan looked at his roommate's appearance, joked, and said casually.

"No, Xi Yuan, you can't say that about me."

How do you know that the roommate solemnly turned his head and said to Xi Yuan,

"It's different...... That's also a good work, and that work is no worse than the work of the dog author...... Well, I want to finish watching "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" first. ”

"The Dog Author's "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" Ah......"

At first, the roommate also responded to Xi Yuan's words from time to time,

Later, I was immersed in the book and the world of "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals".

Turning a deaf ear to the sounds around you.

Xi Yuan looked at his roommate again, turned his head,

looked at the "Ordinary and Great" in his hand, and put it aside for the time being,

I touched my phone.

On the Internet, it is also very lively at this time.

A large number of readers of "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" are discussing and carnivaling.

The discussion of "Ordinary and Great" is naturally basically invisible.

Most readers of "Ordinary and Great" have temporarily attracted their attention to "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals".

It seems that there are some specific places where you can still see the discussion of "Ordinary and Great".

For example, under the official account of Al Publishing House, there is not much movement in sight.

I used to see sporadically posts recommending "Ordinary and Great" on the Internet, but I don't seem to be able to see it now.

I don't know if I was overwhelmed by the news of the release of the overseas version of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals", or if these readers are also busy reading "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" at this time,

Don't care about anything else.

It may be that readers like Xi Yuan who have already read "The Shepherd Boy Seeks Immortals" can also deliberately search for the movements of "Ordinary and Great" on the Internet.

Seeing that under the official account of Al Publishing House, under today's new promotional draft, the retweets of comments have decreased sharply compared with yesterday.

The previous post that retweeted the lottery also became slow to grow.

This I'm a bit miserable.

If you don't die, you will bump into the dog author "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" for overseas sale.

Two people, the readership base of the two books can't be compared at all.

Readers of "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" can cover most of the readers of "The Ordinary and the Great".

This part of the reader, I guess it's like his roommate here, right?

can't take care of "Ordinary and Great" at all,

The new person replaces the old one, and the attention is on "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals", which has just been released overseas.

Xi Yuan raised his head and glanced at the roommate who was still focused, and his emotions fluctuated with the changes in the plot of the story from time to time, looking at the roommate of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals".

"Oh...... No, don't leave the old cow here! ”

Uncomfortable, the roommate couldn't help but shout.

Xi Yuan looked at it, lowered his head again, and looked at the news on the Internet,

It's just that he's not much better,

Originally, he wanted to pay attention to the news of "Ordinary and Great",

Just looking at it and running away,

began to look at these overseas readers, and read the comments after reading "The Shepherd Boy Seeks Immortals",

Looking at it, he wanted to turn out "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" and re-read it.

……

"Hoo ......"

The official release of the overseas version of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals",

Let the pressure on the editor-in-chief of Al Publishing Doubling,

He knew that this was another difficulty in the release of Mr. I's "Ordinary and Great".

If the sales popularity of "Ordinary and Great" was growing and accumulating a little bit before,

Now, that is, the momentum of this growth has been directly cut off and abruptly stopped.

In Eyre Press,

Outside the office, the editors who were excited about the sales trend of their publishing house in the past two days were quiet because the sales trend of their publishing house was gradually rising faster and faster.

In the office, Editor-in-Chief Al was standing in front of the computer, obviously with the chair behind him, but he was reluctant to sit down.

Staring at the Internet, the readers of "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" are now carnivaling, and correspondingly, the desertion of the new promotional draft released by El Publishing House today,

Al's face was a little solemn,

The release of the overseas version of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" has an undoubted impact on the sales of "Ordinary and Great".

Previously, with the accumulation of word-of-mouth among readers, the popularity of "Ordinary and Great" seemed to be eating away at the popularity of other writers a little bit.

And now, "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" is like a monstrous wave, which hits all at once, making the heat accumulated by "Ordinary and Great" these days useless.

Al Du saw that several bloggers on the Internet who were still actively recommending "Ordinary and Great" two days ago,

Today, I directly threw myself into the arms of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals".

Is it because they don't like "Ordinary and Great"?

It's just because of the release of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" that they have attracted their attention.

However, the problem is that even after reading "The Shepherd Boy Seeks Immortals",

Can you turn your attention back to The Ordinary and the Great?

At that time, there were other news that caught the reader's attention,

Then "Ordinary and Great" is afraid that it will be left behind by this group of readers.

"Hoo ......"

Thinking about this, Al felt the pressure double.

At the same time, the responsibility is heavy, in the final analysis, it is still the lack of publicity resources of Aier Publishing House,

Otherwise, with the quality of "Ordinary and Great", no matter what, you should be able to compete with "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" at this time!

"Al, don't be so nervous, isn't this something we expected before?"

""Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" is not a sudden release, and the release time has been predicted before."

Penny next to her was much heavier than Al, although she was also nervous, staring at the messages on the computer screen from time to time,

"I know, it's just that the popularity of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" was snatched away at once, which is really unacceptable...... No, maybe others didn't notice our "Ordinary and Great", but just took away the popularity of "Ordinary and Great" by the way. ”

"Al, that's not right. didn't steal the popularity of "Ordinary and Great", but just covered the popularity of "Ordinary and Great". Readers who have read "The Ordinary and the Great" will not dislike "The Ordinary and the Great" just because they have read "The Shepherd Boy Seeks Immortals".

The current situation will only slow down the accumulation of the popularity of "Ordinary and Great", even if the popularity is all snatched away, it has only been a few days since "Ordinary and Great" was released, and a few days ago, this great work also did not have any heat.

Moreover, even if the popularity is temporarily preempted, the number of readers who have read "The Ordinary and the Great" will not decrease, and the reader's reputation will still slowly accumulate until it completely explodes. ”

"Isn't that what we expected?"

Penny comforts Al.

Al exhaled a long breath,

"Well, you're right, Penny, it's just slowing down the speed of "Ordinary and Great" for more people to see, and it won't just bury it completely."

"But we can't do nothing, continue to promote Mr. I's "Ordinary and Great" on the Internet and offline channels, even in this case, let one more reader see "Ordinary and Great"!"

"The dog author's "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" can steal Mr. I's readers, and Mr. I's "Ordinary and Great" can also attract some readers from the dog author's readers!"

Al said firmly,

The solemnity on his face eased a lot.

Penny nodded and answered.

……

Alice...... Don't you also like this book? Help me forward this long comment again. ”

"You take my mobile phone, log in to my social account, and forward it yourself. I now have to concentrate on reading "The Shepherd Boy Seeks Immortals" first. ”

"Oh my God, I didn't expect that I would be able to grab the 'Dog Author's "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals"."

“…… You are standing in front of the bookstore early in the morning, before the bookstore opens, how can you not buy it. ”

Tara looked across the table, Alice was holding "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals", and couldn't help but complain.

"But when I arrived at the bookstore, there were already a dozen people in front of me."

Alice answered, without raising her head, and looked at the cover of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals",

Obsessed.

“…… Tara, you know what? This is a fairy tale by a dog author, a fairy tale written for adults, it can make people recall their childhood and make people cry. ”

Alice touched the cover of the book and kept talking.

Tara looked at Alice's fascination with the book and rolled her eyes,

"I don't know who said a few days ago that the Internet is full of news about dog authors and ABCs, which makes people bored when looking for books."

"That's different."

"How is it different?"

"At that time, I didn't buy the book, but now, I watch the discussion on the Internet, and I find it very interesting. When I'm done reading "The Shepherd Boy Seeks Immortals", I'm going to join in. ”

“……”

"What about 'Ordinary and Great'? Doesn't it matter? Don't pay attention to it? ”

"That's not the same ......"

"What's the difference?"

"Didn't I recommend this book before?"

“……”

"All right, Tara, my dear sister, don't talk to me anymore, I'm going to concentrate on reading The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals."

Alice said again.

Tara saw her burying her head, holding "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals", and soon immersed herself in the story.

The previous excited expressions gradually calmed down.

Tara looked at her friend again,

Then he turned his head.

Unlike Alice, she is not very interested in the works of big writers such as dog authors and ABC.

Although she didn't read the works of these two writers at all,

But just not interested.

On the contrary, I am more concerned about I's work, "Ordinary and Great".

"Hey......"

The book I like, but it's no longer hot,

Tara was a little uncomfortable.

Looking at the long tweet I had just written, recommending the work "Ordinary and Great",

I still sent this tweet out,

I also forwarded Alice's account.

At least do something about it, maybe it will make a difference.

Even Alice, the bastard, betrayed Mr. I's work,

Tara has an inexplicable sense of responsibility,

Maybe at this time, I'm the only one who is still promoting Mr. I's work!

This sense of responsibility forced Tara to act again.

“…… Friends, do you know "The Ordinary and the Great"? Mr. I's work? ”

She sent a message to her friend,

There are also messages under related topics on the Internet.

As a staunch tap water! Acting with a sense of responsibility.

……

Ji Zhuo received a message from the editor-in-chief of El again,

It was already noon the second day after the release of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals".

Ji Zhuo, who got up early, has ended today's code words.

Still sitting in front of the computer in the study, I touched the mobile phone that rang the message prompt.

The editor-in-chief of Al sent the sales data of "Ordinary and Great" under the influence of the first day of release of the overseas version of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals".

"Mr. al:I, yesterday's sales figures have been put together.

AL: I'm sorry, but because of the responsibility of Al Publishing, there wasn't much of an increase in the single-day sales of your work yesterday.

AL: Yesterday, the single-day sales of your work were more than 5,900 copies by channel. ”

The editor-in-chief of Al only said that the publisher was responsible, and did not mention the influence of "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals".

Looking at this data, Ji Zhuo paused, which was basically in line with his expectations.

According to the trend that the day's single-day sales were about to break 6,000, but yesterday it was not stuck at the 6,000 mark.

It has been proved that "Ordinary and Great" has been greatly influenced by the overseas release of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals".

And there must be a delay in this impact, yesterday's first day of release, so that the sales growth rate of "Ordinary and Great" stagnated,

Then today, single-day sales must not fall!

Ji Zhuo looked at the message sent by the editor-in-chief of Eyre, and was ready to comfort the editor-in-chief of El first.

After all, this is the responsibility of the editor-in-chief of Ayr, this is his responsibility, his responsibility!

"Clumsy and extraordinary: is it because of the release of the overseas version of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals"? It has nothing to do with Al Press.

Clumsy and extraordinary: And yesterday's sales were good, and it must have been an effort by Al Press.

Clumsy and extraordinary: If you have to talk about responsibility, it is also my responsibility, and it has nothing to do with Al Press.

Clumsy and extraordinary: Editor-in-Chief Al doesn't have to apologize for this. ”

Ji clumsily takes responsibility, as if blocking credit, highlighting a positive.

"al: Thank you, Mr. I, for your understanding, thank you.

AL: Al Press will do its best to do it all!

AL: Rest assured, the slowdown in the trend of sales growth will only be temporary. As your readership grows, there are no more books and writers who can overshadow your work! ”

Al was very touched by Mr. I's understanding.

Al didn't say anything about the huge impact of the overseas release of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" before.

He just doesn't want to shirk the blame, and in his opinion, this is that Al Press is not doing a good enough job.

But it turned out that Mr. I knew.

He knows it all!

He also said these words to comfort him so that he didn't have so much pressure.

Al was particularly impressed.

And on the other side,

Looking at this reply from Al,

Ji Zhuo was not too moved, and raised his eyebrows.

I have mixed feelings and don't know what to say.

Al: The fog may be able to block out the sun for a while, but when the sun rises completely, he can only disperse.

al: Mr. I, your work is like this, maybe "The Shepherd Boy Hunts for Immortals" can influence your work for a while, but not for a longer time!

AL: The light of "Ordinary and Great" cannot be covered up by a book of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals"! ”

Some of the excited Al was still sending messages.

Ji Zhuo watched silently, and then turned his gaze from his phone,

to the computer screen in front of him,

On the computer screen, on the codeword software,

ABC's new book "Shadow Empire" has also been completed!

Well, I don't have to cover up for a longer time, I'll just cover it up for a while and for a while!
