Chapter 8: Fire Up

Li Qi and Qin Daoyi are both sophomores in high school, and the two have been neighbors since they were children, and they will always be divided into classes when they go to school. The two have been naughty since they were young and love martial arts novels. Especially the eighteen heroes of the Sui and Tang dynasties are always on their lips.

Qin Daoyi often refers to himself as a descendant of Qin Qiong, the sixteenth good man of the Sui and Tang dynasties, and the name of the kk chat account is named after "the sixteenth good man of the Sui and Tang dynasties". KK chat is equivalent to QQ chat in the previous life, but the name is different in this life.

At the beginning, Li Qi regarded himself as a descendant of Li Yuanba, and his kk account was named "The First Good Man of the Sui and Tang Dynasties". suppressed Qin Daoyi by force, and Qin Daoyi was depressed, but unfortunately there was no way to refute it.

However, in junior high school, the form did suddenly turn around. Because Li Qi always said that I was the descendant of Li Yuanba, the first good man in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and I didn't know that the classmate in the class really couldn't look at it, and said, "Li Yuanba has nothing to admire, he has brute strength, and he is simply a two hundred and five who lack heart."

Since then, the classmates in the class have given Li Qi a nickname, which is called "Two Hundred Five". In particular, Qin Daoyi often used this matter to make fun of Li Qi, in order to avenge the humiliation of six years in elementary school, and this time it was Li Qi's turn to be depressed.

From junior high school to high school, this nickname has been with Li Qi, and later Li Qi was a little numb, and he pressed Qin Daoyi Primary School for six years, and now feng shui takes turns, it's his turn.

This weekend, Li Qi and Qin Daoyi were bored, so they met together to go to a nearby bookstore to see what new martial arts novels had arrived. Li Qi liked the book at first sight. "Little Li Flying Knife" looks like writing the story of our old Li family.

However, Li Qi still casually opened the pages of the book to see what story was written. But looking at it, I can't stop it, and the mystery is layer after layer, especially when I read "Xiao Li's divine knife, the best in the world, a knife, an example is not a false hair!", the eyes are even brighter.

hurriedly greeted Qin Daoyi next to him, "Xiao Qin, come and see, it's really amazing"

"What's the fuss," Qin Daoyi said angrily.

"You come to see this "Xiao Li Flying Knife", it's so well written. Especially this sentence 'Xiao Li Shendao, the best in the world, a knife, the example is not in vain!'. I decided that in the future, my kk will be named 'Li Feidao'. Li Qi said excitedly.

"It's really Wang Po selling melons and boasting about herself, isn't it just a broken knife after all? Can it be compared to Qin Qiong's one hundred and thirty catties of gold?" Qin Daoyi struck.

"You know, I think you're naked jealous. You read in the book, it is written that Xiao Li Feidao ranks third in the world weapon spectrum of Bai Xiaosheng in the rivers and lakes. There is no gold in it, and the martial arts of the rivers and lakes are all in one 'fast' word, what is the use of your gold armor, before you can raise the gold, you are already dead. Li Qi shot back.

Qin Daoyi was interested when he heard the "Jianghu Baixiaosheng World Weapon Spectrum", and as for the rest, Qin Daoyi automatically filtered it. I also picked up the "Xiao Li Flying Knife" on the bookshelf and read it.

In the end, the two of them bought a copy and took it home.

Li Wei is a sophomore this year, and he happened to be fine on Sunday, shopping with his girlfriend. In Li Wei's opinion, there is nothing more painful than accompanying a woman to go shopping, but he has to pretend to be willing. And the happiest thing is to have a bookstore in the process of shopping.

Century shopping mall is Li Wei's favorite to bring his girlfriend to visit, one is that the century shopping mall is big enough, with a total of 7 floors, it is the second largest shopping mall in Tianjin City, basically everything you want can be found here. I led my girlfriend from the 1st floor to the 7th floor, and I could easily cope with it in the morning. The most important thing is that there is a large bookstore on the left half of the top floor of the mall, where people who are tired of shopping can read and rest, which is really a paradise for men.

Li Wei accompanied his girlfriend to go shopping from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m., not buying a single thing, and shopping didn't cost money. It is called "understanding fashion trends". Li Wei's girlfriend didn't buy it and liked to try on clothes, so Li Wei was miserable, and finally had to find an excuse to run out, and hurriedly took the elevator to the seventh floor.

As soon as I went up to the seventh floor, I hurriedly walked to the bookstore on the left, and when I saw the billboard outside saying that the new books had arrived, I couldn't help asking, "Boss, what kind of new books are coming out today?" "Martial arts novels. Pretty good. The boss raised his head and said to Li Wei with a smile.

"Martial arts novels are all that thing, cookie-cutter. I haven't seen any good-looking martial arts novels in the past few years......" Li Wei couldn't help but sigh.

"This should be good, published by the Literature and Art Publishing House, an old martial arts publishing house. If it's not good, it won't be published. The bookstore owner explained.

"Okay, it's okay to be idle, I'll take a look at it," Li Wei said, took a copy and walked to the desk next to him to read it.

Unconsciously, almost an hour passed, and it wasn't until his girlfriend called to urge him that Li Wei came back to his senses and couldn't help but sigh, "This plot is so good, there are twists and turns, not five folds, the author is really thinking like a god...... Especially this name really gives our Li family a face, I decided that in the future, my nickname will be Xiao Li Feidao, I must support the author, buy it and go home to read it slowly. ”

Li Wei hurriedly went to his girlfriend after buying the book, and it was estimated that his girlfriend was in a hurry.

"What are you holding in your hand, didn't you say that you only spent money on shopping today" When my girlfriend saw Li Wei and saw Li Wei coming over with a bag, she couldn't help but ask.

"Ah" Li Wei remembered the previous agreement between the two, and couldn't help but replied curtly: "I'm sorry, I forgot about it when I was excited." But let me tell you, this book is definitely great value, and it is so well written. Today I learned that our old Li family also had a stunt, as soon as Xiao Li's flying knife came out, it was really a generation's masterpiece" As he spoke, Li Wei began to gesture with his hand as he made a flying knife, unconsciously half-squinting his eyes and reminiscing about the glory of that moment.

The same thing happened in the major bookstores in Jinshi, and it was funny to say that most of the people who bought the book were surnamed Li.

The next day, Hu Li looked at the sales statistics in his hand and was a little dazed. More than 200 copies were sold in one day, which is ten times more than the first day.

Various topics and posts discussing Xiao Li's flying knife have slowly appeared on the Internet.

However, after the sales statistics on the third day came out, Hu Li was even more dumbfounded. 1,200 copies, a full 1,200 copies, 5 times more than the next day.

On the third day, it was even more crazy to reach more than 6,600 copies.

On the fourth day, the number of sales finally exceeded 10,000, reaching more than 11,000 copies.

On the fifth day, the market began to grow slowly, with more than 15,000 copies sold.

On the sixth day, the market began to level off. It's basically the same as yesterday, with more than 15,000 copies.

On the seventh day, the market retreated somewhat, selling more than 14,000 copies.

The third day coincided with the beginning of the holiday at the beginning of November, and the publishing house implemented the rotation system, but Hu Li proposed to work overtime and insisted on going to work every day. Now Hu Li is happiest to wait for the sales statistics of "Xiao Li Flying Knife" every morning.

And the sales performance of "Xiao Li Flying Knife" did not disappoint Hu Li, and it was getting higher and higher day by day. During this period, another 100,000 copies were printed, and according to this trend, they will have to be reprinted in a few days. In the past few days, Hu Li has been in a state of excitement, and it feels like a dream. Sometimes I can't help but pinch myself to see if it's true.

More than 60,000 copies were sold in just five days. Today, October 5th, there are still more than 20 days before the end of the month, even if the sales situation falls back in the later period, more than 200,000 copies are ironclad, and a little effort can sell 300,000 copies. Thinking of this number, Hu Li couldn't help but be excited. In the past few days, the entire martial arts editorial department has swept away the previous decadent situation and has regained vitality.

In the past few days, the club has seen the potential of "Xiao Li Flying Knife" and began to vigorously promote it. After all, according to Meng Wen, this novel has a total of three parts, even if this one is not very effective, it can be promoted in advance for the next two. If it is promoted, these three books can sell more than one million, in that case, Hu Li estimates that he will wake up laughing from his dream. After all, even at the peak of martial arts, there was only one copy of "Sword Combination", which was written by today's most famous martial arts master "Da Wusheng". The most important thing is that if "Xiao Li Flying Knife" can sell 1.8 million copies in his own hands, he can be sure of running for the position of vice president.

The club began to ask major bookstores to put the novel in a prominent position, and bookstores can be reimbursed if they make their own banners, and they can also enjoy discounts on book purchases. Of course, even if not to mention, bookstore owners who have made money will do the same.

And it is even more popular on the Internet, whether it is a post bar or a forum, there are topics everywhere to discuss Xiao Li's flying knife.

As for the hot Cheng dù. You only have to look at the list of account names to find out. "Xiao Li Flying Knife", "Old Li Flying Knife", "Big Li Flying Knife", "Middle Li Flying Knife", "See Flying Knife Again", "Still Flying Knife", "Flying Knife Flying Knife", "Family Flying Knife" This is still changed earlier or some creative, like other people who did not seize the opportunity to use no creativity, "Xiao Li Flying Knife 1", "Xiao Li Flying Knife 2", "Xiao Li Flying Knife 3", "Xiao Li Flying Knife 123", "Xiao Li Flying Knife 321", "Xiao Li Flying Knife ABC", "Xiao Li Flying Knife QAZ" and so on are countless.
