"Carol: Mr. A, some of the manuscripts of Shadow Empire that you have sent one after another have been printed and translated in advance.

Carol: Now that I have received the last part of your manuscript from Mr. A, I will transfer this part of the manuscript to the printing house overnight, and immediately start printing the final part of the English and Chinese editions, and start the whole binding work.

Carol: For other language versions, we will continue to print this part of the manuscript after the translation of the final part of the manuscript is completed.

Carol: It is expected that within a month, Mr. A's new book will be officially released. You look at the specific time to determine when it is appropriate. ”

Under Carol's care during this time, in addition to the entire complete manuscript sent to Carol this time,

The manuscript of "Shadow Empire" written before has been sent to Carol and Burt in part in advance.

Naturally, Bert Press was not idle, and the translation and advance printing work were carried out simultaneously.

Just wait for the last part of Ji Zhuo's manuscript to be sent over, and complete the printing of the last part, and then the whole book can be bound.

"Clumsy and extraordinary: as soon as possible."

Ji Zhuo thought about it, and it was officially released within a month. It seems to be about the same.

Waiting for the hustle and bustle of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" to subside, ABC's "Shadow Empire" followed closely.

continue to suppress the popularity of "Ordinary and Great".

And that's not all, and then there's the new book under the name of the dog author.

Of course...... At this time, maybe the new book under the name of the dog author will be seen by readers sooner.

After all, this new book under the name of the dog author, Ji Zhuo is still ready to serialize.

Serialized on the international version of the non-ink website, pen and ink from time to time to pay attention to this matter,

I'm afraid that Ji Zhuo will forget.

"Carol: Is the release time tentatively set for twenty days later?"

"Carol: With the work done by the publishing house now, it should be in time.

Clumsy and extraordinary: Okay, hard work.

Carol: No, it's a pleasure for Bert and me.

Carol: Ha, Burt Publishing will be responsible for the publication of one of your works, Mr. A.

Carol: I feel like as an editor-in-chief, I'm going to have one more comment on the Internet.

Carol: I was in charge of publishing Mr. A's Shadow Empire! ”

Ji Zhuo just replied, and Carol sent several messages in a row.

The excitement is about to overflow from the screen.

On the other side,

Carol stared at the computer screen,

After the end of the relationship with Mr. A****** God was still very excited, thinking that Mr. A's excellent, great work will be published by him again,

He felt refreshed, and the fatigue of a day in the office seemed to be gone.

“…… Lina, notify the printing house to start printing the last part of "Shadow Empire" and start binding the whole book. ”

"I'll send them the last part of the manuscript, as well as translations, literary translations in other languages, I'll contact ......"

Carol excitedly shouted out of the office again,

Then the office door was pushed open from the door, revealing Linna's somewhat resentful expression,

Carol said before that when he finished watching the last "Shadow Empire", he would invite her to dinner.

So she continued to wait at the publishing house.

As a result, I waited so long, waiting for the sky to be completely dark outside the house,

But she waited for Carol to ask her to work overtime.

“…… And propaganda, propaganda things...... Oh, sorry, my Linna. ”

Carol, who was excited, finally noticed Linna's eyes and said apologetically,

And then it got excited again,

"We'll leave right away...... But contact the printer first! We need to arrange the publication of "Shadow Empire" as soon as possible. ”

"Let this great work be seen by more readers as soon as possible!"

Looking at Carol's excited appearance,

Linna's eyes resented a little, and while contacting the printing house, her eyes also showed some interest,

As a reader of Mr. A, she is also particularly interested in the story of the entire book "Shadow Empire".

"Mr. Carroll, wait for the first batch of Shadow Empires to be bound by the printing house, can you let me read the whole book."

"Of course."

"Well, I'm going to urge the printing house."

Carol had already turned her head and started contacting literary translators in other languages, even though they might have been off work at this point......

I agreed with Mr. A that the official release of "Shadow Empire" in various languages will be released in 20 days.

The main thing that Carol and Bert needed to do in these twenty days was to

The printing house is required to print enough copies of "Shadow Empire" in various languages, and then stock up on various channels, as well as publicity.

Carol needs to hurry.

……

On the other side,

After the exchange with Carol,

Ji Zhuo also went back to the house.

"Shadow Empire" is finished, and there is no Ji Zhuo who has no code word pressure for the time being,

Reward a few game teammates at night before going to bed.

Then Ji Zhuo, who got up relatively early these days, slept until noon.

By noon the next day,

Ji Zhuo just received a message from Al,

Ding Dong Ding Dong message prompt sound, woke Ji Zhuo from his sleep,

"Ah~ha......"

Yawning, Ji Zhuo reached out and touched his phone,

Glancing at the message displayed on the penguin chat, it was a message from the editor-in-chief of Al,

Ji Zhuo sat up from the bed and sat on the edge of the bed.

"Al: I'm sorry, sir.

al； Yesterday, the sales of your work "Ordinary and Great" were really poor, and Al Publishing has an unshirkable responsibility for this.

AL: We have betrayed your trust. ”

Looking at Al saying that "Ordinary and Great" did not sell well yesterday, the corners of Ji Zhuo's mouth hooked a little arc,

Look at Al again and say that this is the responsibility of Al Press,

Ji Zhuo didn't quite agree,

This is the responsibility of Al Press, why does he not know?

No matter how strange it is, it can't be blamed on the head of Al Press.

Besides, how could Ji Zhuo be blamed.

"Clumsy and extraordinary: the sales are not good, it can only be that the quality of the work itself is not enough, and what does it have to do with the publishing house.

Clumsy and extraordinary: Editor-in-chief Al doesn't have to take responsibility for himself.

al: Thank you, Mr. I, for your comfort, but Mr. I, your work is good, excellent, but the work of Al Publishing is not up to the mark!

al: If Al Publishing could have done a better job of publicizing it, Mr. I, your work would have blossomed more quickly instead of going through such a trough. ”

Ji Zhuo is very serious in comforting,

But Al seemed to be extra persistent.

"Clumsy and extraordinary: Editor-in-Chief Al doesn't need to feel guilty, is it because of "The Shepherd Boy Seeks Immortals"?

Clumsy and extraordinary: I watched the news of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" is still very lively on the Internet.

Clumsy and extraordinary: So what exactly was the sales of "Ordinary and Great" yesterday? ”

Al looked at the news from Mr. I and was a little moved.

He was indeed a little guilty, and now Mr. I's words of relief made him feel even more complicated.

Mr. I trusts Al Publishing so much, and never even blames Al Publishing for these shortcomings.

El Publishing House still disappointed I,

And even so, Mr. I was comforting him.

You know, "Ordinary and Great" is the work of Mr. I.

Mr. I's own works are not selling well, and he is also uncomfortable.

"al: Thank you Mr. I for your comfort, Al Publishing is really ashamed, even though there may be some other works of influence, but there are still places where the publisher does not do enough."

Yesterday's sales were not good,

Ji Zhuo had expected it for a long time, and the impact of the popularity of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" was delayed.

By yesterday, the impact of the backlog of popularity of "Ordinary and Great" must have begun to reach its peak.

Then yesterday's "Ordinary and Great" sales must have been lower than the day before.

But now Ji Zhuo wants to know how much lower it is, will it be a single-day sales drop by thousands,

After all, look at Al so heavy.

Ji Zhuo was a little expectant, waiting for the editor-in-chief of Al to send this sales data over.

"al: I'm really sorry, but yesterday Mr. I, your work 'The Ordinary and the Great' sold only 5,900 copies."

Looking at Al's words,

Probably Al typed out this typography a little heavily,

But Ji Zhuo looked at it, but he was a little silent.

"Clumsy and extraordinary: Eyre's editor-in-chief is so heavy, I thought it was falling, but the result was just that there was no increase in sales in a single day."

Ji Zhuo is numb,

What did he think was wrong, and that was it?

This is not quite what he expected, yesterday the impact of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" reached its peak,

Shouldn't the single-day sales of "Ordinary and Great" fall?

As a result, it didn't rise......

How can there be so many new readers?

Ji Zhuo felt a little indescribable.

And on the other side,

Al looked at the message from Mr. I, but was even more moved.

Single-day sales growth is stagnant, and Mr. I is also very uncomfortable.

I still say things like this in this relaxed tone,

Just to comfort him and Al to publish.

Mr. I was too considerate of Al Press and them.

"al: Mr. I, you don't have to comfort me like that, I know you're uncomfortable too.

AL: Ever since the release of Ordinary and Great, there has been a steady increase in single-day sales, but that growth stalled yesterday.

AL: Of course, there is the influence of "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals", but it is also that Al Publishing has not done enough.

Clumsy and Extraordinary: ......"

Ji Zhuo is quite uncomfortable.

Under the squeezing heat of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals", the single-day sales of "Ordinary and Great" did not fall, and Ji Zhuo was very uncomfortable.

Could it be that "Ordinary and Great" can't be suppressed anymore?

Could it be that the big size of 'dog author' can't suppress the little vest of I.

Ji Zhuo couldn't help but have a strange picture in his mind,

Trumpet I, who had been beaten, suddenly grabbed the fist of the dog author's tuba.

Well......

Ji Zhuo shook his head and threw this strange picture out of his mind,

"Clumsy and extraordinary: I'm just curious why sales didn't drop yesterday.

Clumsy and extraordinary: Obviously, the popularity of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" is so high, which seriously squeezes the popularity of "Ordinary and Great", how can there be such a new increase in readers? ”

Ji clumsily has to figure out why the sales of "Ordinary and Great" did not fall yesterday,

Well, there's a lesson to be learned.

"Al: Hmm...... Some of the new readers should have purchased the book because of the word-of-mouth of your previous readers. ”

Looking at Al's message, Ji Zhuo nodded.

The meaning of this sentence is that some of the readers knew about "Ordinary and Great" before, but they just bought it yesterday.

After all, it is impossible to say that all readers are interested in a book when they see a certain recommendation, or a long review, and immediately buy it, maybe they saw it before, and then they just remembered it, or they passed by a bookstore and bought it.

But relying on this part of the readership alone, yesterday's sales must have fallen.

AL: Also, the book "The Shepherd Boy Hunts for Immortals" has squeezed the heat out of your work, and your loyal readers know it. They like your work, so they also work extra hard to recommend your work at this time, for fear that your work will be submerged in this wave of heat. ”

Seeing this, Ji Zhuo could only be silent.

Indeed, there are many readers of "Ordinary and Great" who are also readers of dog authors, and when they saw that "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" was on sale, and there were new books to read, they were full of thoughts on "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals".

But there are also loyal and even avid readers, in this case, who are even more diligent in promoting "The Ordinary and the Great".

"Al: Finally, Al Press also tried its best to do some more publicity activities, but it was a little insignificant, and in the end, it didn't make your work continue to grow in sales in a single day yesterday, Mr. I."

Ji Zhuo looked at the last explanation sent by Al,

More silent.

I don't know what to reply, it's really hard to say.

In this case, I didn't even talk about the sales of "Ordinary and Great" under the name of I.

And Ji Zhuo didn't reply,

Al didn't recommend any more clumsy remarks.

"al: But rest assured, Mr. I, the stagnation in the growth of your work in a single day will only be temporary.

AL: When the readership of your work increases, and when the popularity of that book decreases a bit, the single-day sales of your work will inevitably resume growth, and it will get faster and faster! ”

The heart was poked hard again.

Oh, yes

Now in this case, I can't suppress the sales of "Ordinary and Great",

Then wait until the popularity of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" has passed,

Wouldn't that be even cooler?

The news sent by Al made Ji Zhuo's eyes a little confused.

Raising his head again, he paused,

Immediately after that, Ji Zhuo cheered up again.

"Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" has passed, and "Ordinary and Great",

"The Ordinary and the Great" is over, and there is a new book by the dog author,

It's enough to just press the single-day sales without growth!

Anyway, the current single-day sales are still far from the current target of the system.

If you can't hold it down...... That Ji Zhuo could only admit it......

However, Ji Zhuo is still a little confident in this.

Reinvigorated, Ji Zhuo turned his head again and looked at the message sent by the editor-in-chief of Eyre,

It doesn't feel so heart-wrenching.

"Clumsy and extraordinary: just do your best, and your publishing house and the editor-in-chief of Al don't have to put too much pressure.

Clumsy and extraordinary: If it doesn't sell well, it's all the book's responsibility.

al: Thank you, Mr. I, for your resonance, and Al Publishing will do its best to get your work published.

Clumsy and extraordinary: well......"

White Flag Country.

I ended the exchange with Mr. I,

Al still has a lingering touch in his heart,

Mr. I's trust in the publishing house, his tolerance for the publishing house,

The greatness and excellence of Mr. I's work are reasons why Al Publishing cannot retreat.

These are all reasons why Al Publishing cannot help but do its best.

With some emotion, Al reached out again and picked up "Ordinary and Great" by the desk.

Now, he just thinks that he can publish Mr. I's "The Ordinary and the Great",

Striving for "Ordinary and Great" to shine completely is the most meaningful thing in his life.

When "The Ordinary and the Great" completely blooms with his brilliance, and when many readers see this book,

The Internet has finally set off a wave of reading of Mr. I's work, so he will have a special sense of accomplishment, right?

"What's wrong?"

Penny next to her watched Al gently rubbing the cover of "Ordinary and Great" with his hand, and didn't know what to think,

I couldn't help but say a word of concern.

"No, not much, I'm just thinking that I must do my best to publish Mr. I's work."

"Isn't that a matter of course?"

Petunia smiled in response, and Al laughed too.

“…… By the way, Al, some bookstores that used to have a small amount of stock have sent out stock orders this morning, and I have already shipped them from the warehouse. ”

counted, although "Ordinary and Great" has not yet fully bloomed due to various reasons,

But the cumulative sales and cumulative readers seem to be tens of thousands.

These will be the beginning of the complete brilliance of "Ordinary and Great".

……

"Aha......"

This way. Magic City.

Ji Zhuo and Editor-in-Chief Al ended chatting,

He yawned, glanced at the time, and got up to wash.

Yesterday I finished the draft of "Shadow Empire",

The new book under the dog author's name has not yet been written.

While he had some time, he was ready to go out for a walk today.
