But after seeing the shaky data in front of him, Edward didn't care about it, but said with no scheming joy: "Haha, I'm glad your blessing. In fact, I have as much confidence in this book "Twilight" as you. Look, those old guys who had previously opposed spending resources on this book will definitely regret the shortsightedness at the beginning, and then cry and apologize to the genius. Well, by the way, Miss Figue, I just remembered that there seemed to be some spare time at night. After half a month of busyness, if I could have dinner with a beautiful and charming lady during the holiday, it would be the greatest encouragement to me."

The little bit of the Frenchman's fault began to occur again. Any woman with a decent appearance and a hot body was in their hunting targets, especially now that she has worked hard to "discover" the optimistic writers, whose works have been a great success in the North American market. Correspondingly, Edward's inner sense of success subconsciously emanates, and immediately spots the actual situation and launches an attack on the company's marketing staff around her.

"Well, if it was your invitation, then I would be happy to go to the appointment." The beautiful staff member of the marketing department shrugged and did not forget to leave the other party with a tempting look when he turned around.

...

While Edward was flirting with the beautiful clerk at the headquarters of the Landon Bookstore Group, Sean, who was waiting for Zhou's summary meeting in the conference room of the group headquarters of the Bantam Group, was full of joy. Because less than a minute after the internal data of Random Bookstore was statistics, Sean's assistant told him all the situation he saw on the company's internal network. After learning about this situation, Sean had a moment. Like Edward, who was also waiting for news at the headquarters of the group, he could not help but almost lost his composure. Fortunately, he had experienced the storm and sway, and his character was much calmer than Edward. So after laughing, he suppressed this excitement and excitement in his heart, instead of showing off everywhere like the former.

But even if he couldn't see anything on his face, when he saw him walking in with other company executives, his face was definitely not well calculated, he instantly became a difficult time to calm down, and he stood up and took the initiative to greet the other party: "Hey, dear Rafathir, I think you should have heard of the sales of "Twilight"? How about it, is it the same as me? I'm happy that our group has discovered such a powerful work that is enough to enter the annual bestseller rankings? Then I think the meeting ends

After that, we can find a place to have a drink... Oh, by the way, Mr. Cowell, a reporter from the Times, who interviewed Yang Yi, revealed an internal situation to us. It seems that a fellow Watson Post he knew had received instructions from some people before, so he did something to slander the author at Princeton Middle School, the first stop in the U.S. publicity of Twilight. This is a complete and big news. Guess which competitor of the Landon House is the guy who is engaging in conspiracy behind the scenes?

From the beginning of the formulation of the national promotion plan, Sean and Rafathier, as advocates and first opponents of this plan, have stood on a natural opposition. The competition between the two people has actually become clear within the company, and basically all middle and senior staff are aware of it. The headquarters of the Bantam Group and Peacock Publishing Company are well known to everyone. The result of their struggle is just waiting for the final sales of "Twilight". But now it seems that Sean has finally laughed, and it is because the two of them have only experienced such a spark-like scene after they meet.

Sean did not forget everything he encountered at Princeton before, but remembered it all in his heart. There is no race or gender in this world. Any man who encounters an enemy in his career will always keep it in mind and wait for the time to attack the other party. So even after the first event, Sean came to the reporter and went to the local court to sue the other party for threats and intimidation. In the end, he did not spend much effort and found out the master behind the other party from the reporter who was provoking trouble.

He did not have an attack at that time, not because he was magnanimous or because he was well-read the Bible, so he had to stretch out his right face to give the other person a try. But before he was sure that "Twilight" could really be successful, neither the headquarters of the Random House Group or the leadership of the Bantam Chicken Group would allow the two senior managers to confront each other so obviously, nor would he agree to make the matter big.

But it's different now. With the big sale of "Twilight" in the North American market, Sean is also very clear that the differences between him and Rafathir can even be said to have risen to the point of hatred, and it is time to come up with an argument - if Rafathir did not bribe the reporter to make trouble at the event, perhaps the top leaders would suppress the two of them and limit the filth between them. But Rafathir's previous actions have obviously exceeded the bottom line that any senior executive of Random House can tolerate. In addition, Sean is the final winner again, then Rafathir's unlucky is something that everyone can foresee.

After hearing his opponent laughing at him unscrupulously, Rafathir, who rushed over from his own office on the other side of the corridor, could barely maintain his usual sarcastic smile and sneer at Sean. But as long as anyone with a little wink, he could find that the current promotion director of the group's marketing department was not as strong as he is now, but he just insisted on not losing his dignity. Some managers who had a relationship with Rafathir in the company could not help but feel sad when they passed by the two of them. However, among the publishing companies under the group, the managers who had conflicts with Rafathir in company affairs like Sean had the opposite attitude.

"Isn't it a pity? A marketing director can barely say that if he just missed a bestseller of the year, he actually spent so much effort to stop the bestseller's hot sale. I want to say that as a publisher, he made such a decision, which is simply a shame for the publisher. Of course, maybe that guy was an undercover agent sent by our company's competitors?" Seeing Rafathier forcibly persuading his work, Sean had no idea of ​​sympathy. Instead, he took advantage of the opportunity to pass by the other party and smiled and whispered, apart from the above-mentioned heart-scare theory, Rafathier's face turned pale in an instant. He could no longer maintain his previous calmness.

But no matter what the latter feels, Sean thinks he has already let out a lot of anger. Moreover, at the next senior meeting of the group, the group CEO and the chief talent officer will probably make personnel arrangements for Rafathir. It is impossible to directly fire or other refrigeration methods, because the corporate culture of Random House has never advocated this overly intense personnel system. But no matter what, it is undoubtedly necessary to transfer him from the position of the marketing director of the group headquarters. Maybe the position of the director will be a leisure position in a logistics department or administrative department in other sub-groups. In short, there is no position with no development prospects.

So as the winner, Sean did not intend to pursue the other party’s good show at all, but wanted to save energy to watch the other party’s good show at the meeting.

...

"Facts have proved that Mr. Sean, general manager of Peacock Publishing, has an unparalleled vision. He only came into contact with "Twilight". He judged the strong market potential of the book, and then tailored a complete promotion plan for the book. The response from the market and readers tells us that Manager Sean not only has an outstanding vision, but also has strong ability in book operation. After the first 24 hours after the Princeton event, due to the promotion of local media in San Francisco, the sales of "Twilight" soared by 6,000 copies. This is just the effect after the end of the first stop of the event..."

On both sides of the long round table are the senior managers of the Bantam Group, including senior executives of the group headquarters and general managers of various publishing companies. All of these people are just footnotes, a footnote to the successful Sean. When they looked at Sean, they were both envious and jealous, but they were helpless. Who knew a foreign boy... Well, I can just say it directly, it was a Chinese boy who could not understand Citiland in their minds, who could actually write a book that made countless Citiland young people fascinated. This was simply incredible. In the eyes of these elites in the publishing industry, a Chinese boy who was ridiculed by Citiland was as surprising as a swan popping up from a pile of ducks.

Who knows why Sean is so lucky...

On the first seat of the long round table, Ceo McDamon of the Bantam Group continued to echo in the not-so-small conference room: "When waiting for the eighth stop of this promotion, that is, after the event was halfway through, the 24-hour sales of "Twilight" have reached a shocking 27,000 volumes. Look, gentlemen, what does this situation mean? I think you all here must know the meaning of it better than me. This is an absolute bestseller, and we don't need our marketing analysts to make great efforts to predict the expected sales curve of this book. What we have to do is just pile up resources so that more teenagers know such a book and then wait to see the final sales record. Can there be a easier job than this? Sorry, I personally don't think there will be a easier job."

"Okay, then as the person who discovered and personally formulated the entire publicity plan, General Manager Sean, do you have anything to say? You can speak freely whether it is your thoughts or what you need to do next." McDamon nodded to Sean. Although he could hear that the group CEO was in a very good mood, his expression was no different from usual. He asked Sean with a gaze without a smile.
