Chapter 113: "Liang Zhu" sets sail
March 26,
The major bookstores under the series of bookstores have put "Liang Zhu" in the most conspicuous position.
"Shopkeeper, can "Liang Zhu" really sell so much?" Dongyue Cong bookseller, the guy asked the shopkeeper worriedly.
This time, the bookstore stocked up on 5,000 copies, and if it couldn't be sold, it would be a pile of waste paper.
The shopkeeper looked around at the bookstore, "Don't worry, "Liang Zhu" has this strength." ”
Although he said that he was relieved, he still had no bottom in his heart.
Last time, there were only 100,000 copies of "Liang Zhu", and when they were scattered, there were only about 100 copies in each bookstore, and it was not unusual for them to sell quickly.
But he never expected that the headquarters bookstore would dare to take such a big risk.
That's 1.5 million copies.
This is completely treating Qinglian as a master.
Even if you are a master of scripts, it doesn't mean that every script can be successful.
Master Huang Qinshan's "Whispering" is the best example.
If it weren't for Taibai to turn the Dajin literary world upside down, he would have finally come up with a poem that topped the literary holy list, as well as a master-level book.
"Whispering" couldn't have sold so well.
This is the consensus of all.
He is also very optimistic about "Liang Zhu", but he also thinks that 500,000 copies are the top of the sky, and if he exceeds some, I am afraid it will not sell so well.
"The headquarters bookstore must have its own considerations." The bookstore shopkeeper muttered to himself.
The headquarters of the Cluster Clerkship Office does have its own considerations.
Shopkeeper Yu gathered all the stewards under his command early this morning.
Some stewards still have a lot of complaints about the printing of 1.5 million copies of "Liang Zhu".
"Shopkeeper, isn't this too risky? One and a half million copies is not a small number. ”
"No matter how good "Liang Zhu" is, Qinglian is just a newcomer to the book, not well-known, can she afford such a huge sales?"
……
Shopkeeper Yu looked around at everyone, "Liang Zhu" is of excellent quality, if it is written by the master of the script, it is not difficult to buy two million copies. ”
"But it's an opportunity."
All the stewards looked at Shopkeeper Yu.
Shopkeeper Yu took a sip of tea, "If we can push the newcomer's script to the same sales volume as the master's script, we can get rid of the current situation of relying too much on the master." ”
"The master of the book is indeed the treasure of the major bookstores, but these master masters of the book are becoming more and more arrogant, and if they don't agree with each other, they will switch to other bookstores."
"If the book "Liang Zhu" can be completed, the bookstore will slowly change the standard in the future, focusing on the quality of the text, rather than focusing on people."
"Masters of scripts can also write bad books, and we want high-quality scripts, not scripts written by some people."
As soon as these words came out, the room was silent.
All the stewards couldn't help but swallow their saliva, what Shopkeeper Yu said was too shocking, and it was very different from the standards of the major bookstores now.
Take the three major bookstores in the three southeastern provinces as an example, they are all competing for the master of the book, after all, the quality of the book written by the master is relatively stable, and there are a large number of clusters.
Relying on the master of the script, he can drive the sales of other scripts.
But now the shopkeeper Yu actually said that he would gradually change the existing standards.
Focus on the quality of the script.
This is nothing less than a earth-shaking change within the bookstore.
"Shopkeeper, have you discussed this matter with the young owner?" One of the stewards couldn't help but ask.
Shopkeeper Yu neither nodded nor shook his head, "This is just an idea, I have also explored the tone of the young owner, if "Liang Zhu" can really sell 1.5 million copies, this method will be feasible." ”
"The benefits of this matter for the bookstore are obvious, as it can tap more new talents, and at the same time reduce the influence of the master of the book on the bookstore."
"Some masters have not had a single book for several years, but they still have to eat the empty salary of the bookstore, and such moths should have been removed a long time ago."
"Therefore, "Liang Zhu" is not allowed to be defeated."
What Shopkeeper Yu said was like a thunderbolt in everyone's ears.
Who would have thought that it was just a script, and there was such a far-reaching layout hidden behind it?
This is to change the rules of the script!
"In addition, taking advantage of the "Liang Zhu" to attract the attention of all parties, the plan must be completed as soon as possible if it was proposed last time."
"At most, half a month later, I want to cut off the general trend jointly promoted by Tongque Bookstore and Bailu Bookstore, and the final winner can only be my Cong Bookstore!"
Compared to the great enemy of the Bunch Bookstore.
Others are more like watching a play.
The book office bucked the trend, not only did not follow the trend, but made a desperate bet, which is very unwise.
The outside world is waiting to see how "Liang Zhu" will sell.
Li Changan is also paying attention.
The success of "Liang Zhu" is related to the tone of the Qinglian Wen Palace, and it is closely related to his own life.
sold 100,000 copies before, and the words on behalf of "Liang Zhu" have begun to produce a meager literary atmosphere.
It's a pity that the number is too small.
Compared with the weakest "Two Lovesick Songs" in Taibaiwen Palace, they are all different from cloud and mud.
Whether he can survive the settlement of the Wensheng List at the end of the month, Li Changan has no bottom in his heart.
The gap between the two palaces is too great.
Once the Wensheng List is settled, the Wenqi in the Taibai Wen Palace will cause a skyrocket.
I don't even have a chance to consume, so I can only resist completely.
He's done everything he can.
"Liang Zhu" was printed in 1.5 million copies.
I also thought about changing "Liang Zhu" into an opera to facilitate dissemination.
even laid out the Han spy department.
But it will take time for these to bear fruit.
Now we can only do our best to obey the destiny of heaven.
"It seems that I have to ask Uncle Zhang for some more mangniu ointment." Li Chang'an beat a drum in his heart.
Coming to the Slim Temple,
Qian sat down beside Li Changan, "Brother, what's wrong with you in the last few days?" The soul is not guarded. ”
"There's something to deal with." Li Changan knew Qian Zhuang's thoughts.
After March 15, let's talk about doing business.
But who would have thought that his identity hole was filled, but he was saddled with a time bomb.
"Brother Li, let's talk about it, we want to do business together." Money sits in the village and gets straight to the point.
Li Changan nodded, "Don't worry, I already have an eye for the opening of the store, have you heard of Wangfuji hot pot?" ”
When Qian Zazhuang heard this, he immediately straightened up, "Brother Li knows about Wangfu Ji hot pot?" ”
"It seems that Brother Qian also knows about Wangfu Ji hot pot?" Li Changan looked at Qian Zazhuang in surprise.
"Dongyue County includes all the counties under its jurisdiction, what are the good things, I have investigated, Wangfu Ji hot pot is unique, I naturally understand." Qian sat on the bank and said as a matter of course,
"But Shenlong, the boss of Wang Fu Ji, has never found the end, and I have never found it."
"What? Brother Li, do you have a way? ”
Li Changan smiled slightly, this guy really has two brushes, and the market research is very detailed.
"Uncle Zhang, the boss of Wangfu Ji, is my distant relative, and he is going to come to the county town to open a store during this time, if Brother Qian is interested, I can help match him."
"Really!?" Qian Zazhuang's eyes lit up.
"Can I still lie to you? However, Uncle Zhang's conditions are a bit much, so you should talk to him first. Li Changan said.
Qian Zazhuang was overjoyed, and patted Li Changan's shoulder hard, "It's good to talk, I said why isn't Brother Li in a hurry, it turns out that there is such a way." ”
"Wangfu Ji is very popular in several counties of Dongyue County, and the hot pot looks simple, but without the recipe, you can only stare dryly."
"If you open a few Wangfu Ji in the county town, business will be prosperous!"
Li Changan raised his eyebrows, "Brother Qian, I have something here and want to ask you for help." ”
"What's the matter? Brother Li said. Qian Zazhuang patted his chest and said.
"I wonder if Brother Qian has a way to rouge gouache?" Li Changan said, "The little sister in the family is idle at home and wants to find something to do. ”
"Rouge gouache?" Qian Zazhuang touched his chin, "The best rouge gouache in the county town is Wenxiangju, and the business is basically occupied by his family, if you want to become bigger, it is basically impossible." ”
Li Changan said with a smile, "It's just to open a small shop and let the family pass the time." ”
"That's no problem, I know a few merchants, I can ask for a little more for you." Qian Zazhuang quickly settled the matter, "Although I can't make much, I won't work in vain." ”
"Thank you, Brother Qian."
"You're welcome? Wangfu Ji Am I still relying on Brother Li? Qian sat on his shoulders and put his arm around Li Changan's shoulder, "Why don't we go to the Jiaofang Division tonight to play?" ”
"I have some things to deal with recently, I'll invite Brother Qian to dinner another day." Li Changan hurriedly refused.
As soon as he mentioned the Teaching Division, Li Changan couldn't help but think of the only night he was in the Teaching Division, he was drunk and drunk, and he had a face that was more beautiful than Oiran.
……
After the large-scale printing and sale of "Liang Zhu", the sales on the first day can only be said to be average, far from the level of popularity.
This made everyone in the Cong Bookstore raise their hearts to their throats.
The publicity was very strong, but the results on the first day of sale were not satisfactory, which could not help but make the big guy a little discouraged.
The other two bookstores that had been waiting to see the joke finally put their minds at ease.
According to the current trend, "Liang Zhu" can only sell 500,000 copies at most, and it is impossible to increase more.
The Cong Bookstore is going to lose a lot of money this time.
However, by the next day, a large number of people had gathered at the entrances of the bookstores in various places.
"Shopkeeper, bring me two copies of "Liang Zhu".
"I want five copies of "Liang Zhu"."
……
"Qinglian's "Liang Zhu", have you watched it?"
"Liang Zhu"? Who wrote it? ”
"There are a lot of interesting things about the academy in it, and the love between Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai in it is touching."
"Really? Then I'll buy it and see ......."
Half a day later,
The person who was "fooled" into watching "Liang Zhu" had red eyes and found his sister, "Woo, you lied to me......"
"How did I lie to you?"
"You clearly said that Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai's love is heartfelt."
"Yes, is the affection between them fake?"
“……”
"If you want to blame Qinglian, who made him cry so well when he wrote "Liang Zhu".
……
Li Changan walked on the street and really felt that "Liang Zhu" was on fire.
Although it is not popular enough for everyone to talk about it, there are already many people discussing the storyline, which is a huge improvement.
Coming to the Academy,
Annan glanced at Li Changan and said casually,
"Brother Li, go to the theater tonight?"
"Listening to a play? When did Brother An have such leisure? Or go to the Workshop Division? ”
Li Changan took out the list of foreign affairs tasks on the ninth floor, trying to find out if there were any suitable foreign affairs tasks.
"I went to Goolan near Tonglu Hutong, and I heard that there was a new play there, called "Liang Zhu"."
Annan looked at Li Changan, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and the willow eyes were meaningful.
Li Changan's hand suddenly froze.
