Orders! Add another order!
"Huh!?" The store manager suddenly felt the urge to hit the wall!
Of course, the store manager didn't know that that night, the store managers of hundreds of small and medium-sized bookstores across the country also had the same impulse as him! Later that evening, a television station in England reported on this bizarre incident that took place in a bookstore!
A group of readers, with an average age of 30 and above, flocked to hundreds of large and medium-sized bookstores across the country, holding a copy of children's literature and reading it with relish, and when such a picture appeared on television, it immediately attracted the attention of countless English citizens!
Of course, what everyone cares about the most is the children's novel called "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone"!
On TV, a reporter stopped a reader who was about to leave after paying, and asked him what attracted him to this jade string...
Faced with a reporter's question, the man in his thirties was so excited that he danced with his hands and said, "Magical witchcraft, mysterious wizard!" Oh my God, I'd like to go to King's Cross to find that nine-and-three-quarters platform! That's the gateway to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry! Ha ha! ”
Facing the man, he excitedly said that the audience in front of the TV was confused. The reporter also tried to raise his doubts: "Is this children's novel really so good?"
"Who told you this was a children's novel?" The man gave the reporter a disgusted look and said, "I swear in my grandfather's name that this is definitely the most wonderful magic novel in history!" Hmmm......"
The other party turned his head to look at it, and then pulled over the promotional poster of "Legendary Paladin" that prevented him from being on the side, pointed to the title of the book on the sea mark, and said solemnly: "It's ten thousand times better than this sleepy!"
Reporter: "......"
Looking at this man's sworn appearance, countless viewers suddenly became interested! 10,000 times better than "Legendary Paladin"? How dare he blow it!
However, although I knew that the other party was exaggerating, the audience still had a strong interest in the book "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone"! Well...... I'll buy a copy tomorrow when I have time......
The next day, the staff of major bookstores in England suddenly noticed a sudden increase in the number of customers who came to inquire about Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. In the face of customers' questions, the owners of small bookstores that did not introduce Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone were naturally surprised.
And when seven or eight customers came to the book in a row, the owners of those small bookstores suddenly realized something, immediately called out, and finally learned the origin of the book!
So, on the one hand, they stabilized these guests, and on the other hand, they immediately contacted the publisher who published "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone".
When Mr. John received the order calls from the bookstore, he immediately showed a triumphant smile!
"Hello? Who is it? Oh, and the Mad Hatters in Oxfordshire? Would you like to order a thousand copies of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone? Well, yes, okay, I'll let the logistics ship it to you right away, "Hey?" Is Dorset's Wild Homeless Bookstore? Two thousand copies of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone? Yes, yes, yes! I'll arrange for it to be shipped to you right away! ”
"Hello? It's Edinburgh's armchair bookstore......"
For a whole day, the phone of the Doji Press was ringing endlessly, and often when the operator put down the microphone, the next phone rang immediately, and the operator was so busy that he didn't even have time to go to the bathroom!
At the same time, all the staff of the publishing house went to the warehouse to help carry the books. In this way, I was busy until 10 o'clock in the evening of the same day, and all the items ordered by the team today were delivered. After finishing the work, the publishing house took a financial inventory of today's shipments, and it reached 100,000 copies!
Before that, Mr. John had also received text messages from the bank one after another, and by the evening, the company's account had an extra income of a full 500,000 pounds
Second, these are the advance payments paid by bookstores that order books!
At the wholesale price of £12 per book, they would have earned a full £1.2 million tonight! If only every day could be like today......
Mr. John shook his head, amused by his own unseemly thought! In Mr. John's opinion, if today's all-day shipment can be successfully sold in the next month, it will be a great success!
The next day, as Mr. John expected, only a dozen or so small bookstores came to call and order, and these small bookstores had a small customer base and did not dare to order more, each of them only had one or two hundred copies, adding up to less than three thousand, which was better than nothing!
However, this situation lasted only two days.
Two days later, in the morning, just as Mr. John was leaving the house to go to work, he received a call from a staff member of the publishing house. "Mr. John! Hurry! Come to the publishing house!" In the microphone, the employee's tone was extremely anxious, and the embryo was in the sunny mood of the silkworms! Mr. John's face tightened, and he immediately asked, "What's wrong?" What's wrong?"
"Those bookstores!" The employee eagerly said, "Those bookstores are calling again!" ”
"A bookstore?" Mr. John chuckled in his heart, "What's wrong?" Could it be that there is something wrong with the quality of our books? They want to return it?"
"No, no, no!" The employee immediately said, "It's not a rush!" It's an add-on! They're going to add orders!"
"Add a single order?!" Mr. John's eyes widened, "You mean, how many orders have been placed for that type of bookstore?"
"The Mad Hatter's Bookshop in Oxfordshire? 5,000 more copies of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, 8,000 more of Dorset's Wild Homeless Books, and 4,000 copies of Edinburgh's Armchair Bookstore......"
When the staff reported the number of additional orders for that batch of bookstores to Mr. John, the latter's face suddenly showed an incredible look!
This...... How is this possible?!
This is not scientific!
Full of calculations, with the first day of the fish to arrive at the Ke tired electric store, it is only a huge time for Sanqing!
The first batch of books ordered by these bookstores was more than 1,000 copies, and in just three days, they were all sold out?!
But Mr. John also knew that it was impossible for the staff to lie about it, and it was even less likely for the bookstores to call them for fun! Just as Mr. John was shocked, several more text messages were received on his mobile phone.
Mr. John opened it and saw that it was an account text message from the bank, reminding him that he had received a sum of money, and the name of the payer's account was very familiar, it was the account of the previous bookstore owners!
