Chapter 1045 The price of hugging your thighs is a bit high
The sunset is sunset in the west mountain.
Xinhua Bookstore is still busy.
The one-pirate sold more than 10,000 copies today.
To some extent, this is also a historical record.
Before this, no book could sell 10,000 copies a day.
However, Qing'er didn't have much smile on her face.
Although Wu Meiniang had explained the marketing plan of "One Piece" to her, when she thought that the Xinhua Bookstore suffered a loss of more than 2,000 yuan because of selling "One Piece", she felt so heartbroken that she was about to suffocate.
This is all the money of his own prince, but now he has lost it for his own reasons.
How can you bear it in your heart?
"Qing'er, don't worry, the price will become two cents tomorrow, and the price will gradually increase. When the second volume starts selling next week, everything will be fine. Now you don't need to think too much about losing money, and all the lost money can be earned back in the future.
Didn’t the prince say that if the One Piece is not released, it will definitely not be completed. At that time, there will be a chance to earn the money back."
Wu Guo also participated in the production of the "One Piece" comic, and naturally he will not miss the new book launch today.
"That's right, but losing more than 2,000 guan a day is really scary. In Chang'an City, there are not many families with a net worth of more than 2,000 guan, but I lost more than 2,000 guan a day."
If Qing'er had the choice, she would rather sell "One Piece" at the normal selling price, and then rely on the excitement of the story itself to slowly increase the sales.
Instead of just like now, sales are increased at once, but they have not earned a penny.
"The first volume is sold so well now. Everyone will definitely look forward to the second volume going on sale quickly. When we go back tonight, let's think about the following comic plot. It's important to get the second volume out as soon as possible."
Qing'er has no way to refute Wu Guo's statement.
However, seeing the still lively scene in Xinhua Bookstore, she had to sigh.
Looking forward to making money in the next book.
This kind of thing that makes people lose money and make people shout at her is still very stressful.
However, Qing'er's troubles can be said to be a happy trouble, after all, everything is expected.
But for Wen Qiming and Xu Xiaode, it is not the same thing.
Originally, relying on the scalpers to create the atmosphere, Wenqu Bookstore sold several books "Etiquette Story".
However, when the news of Xinhua Bookstore selling books for a penny spread, no one followed him in line at the door of Wenqu Bookstore.
As a result, after all the trouble, the scalpers organized by Lao Ren were constantly buying "Etiquette Story".
It's okay once or twice, but it's like this every time, so it's meaningless.
After Wen Qiming and Xu Xiaode encountered the incident at the entrance of Xinhua Bookstore, they naturally had no mood to continue to go to Diandude for dinner, so they had to return to the bookstore to watch the changes.
"This comic is just to pass the time for children. It is completely incomparable to "Etiquette Story", but it also affects the sales of our "Etiquette Story". It's really unreasonable."
Wen Qiming was complaining while looking at Xu Xiaode's face.
There is no way, no matter what, it is just that I messed up the matter myself.
If Xu Xiaode took his anger on him, there would be no way.
"Exaggeration, vanity, violence, falsehood, treacherous, shameless. One Piece is not a book that teaches people to be kind at all. Selling such books at such a low price is completely a corruption of the Tang Dynasty and a distortion of everyone's values. Not only does it not make money, it also ruins the entire book market."
Xu Xiaode couldn't help but curse.
The effort was a waste.
I was going to win both fame and fortune, but the duck that got to my mouth flew away!
No matter what kind of book "One Piece" is, the price of each book is destined to be the best book sold during this period.
Even "Sea Travel Story Collection" cannot compare to it.
This means that at that time, the things that the people discuss after dinner will only be "One Piece" and will not be "Etiquette Story". This is definitely not the scene that Xu Xiaode hopes to see.
"Yes, harming others and not being self-interested. Xinhua Bookstore is such a big deal. If the people are developed to buy books at low prices, how can they sell the books in the bookstore in the future? Will everyone go to eat the northwest wind?"
Wen Qiming secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Xu Xiaode didn't expose his anger on his head, so he thanked God.
He no longer dared to count on anything else.
If such boring books are not started during the first round of hype, it will be difficult to do them later.
After all, people who bought the book probably won’t recommend anyone else to read it after reading it.
If you don’t buy it, you will basically not buy it again.
Unless Wen Qiming is willing to continue advertising in the newspaper.
But whether the advertising fee can be earned back is a question.
"I want to write an article and submit it to the "Datang Daily". No, I submit it to the "Qujiang Daily" to severely criticize the books that mislead people's children. It is best to issue a ban on the court and list "One Piece" as a banned book; so that others will not see the popularity of "One Piece" and create similar stories, making the atmosphere messy."
"Well, I happened to know Zhu Zhishan from Chang'an Evening News. I will visit him later. Please help him choose some articles criticizing One Piece to publish them in the newspaper. We must let the people of Chang'an City see the essence of One Piece and not be deceived by those low prices."
Wen Qiming said very against his will.
In fact, in his heart, he thought: Who can he deceive each penny?
"I'll also go to find Kong Yingda, the Imperial College Priest, tomorrow, and ask him to come forward to suppress "One Piece". I heard that he has always been not very good at dealing with the King of Chu Mansion. Although the relationship between the two sides has eased a lot due to the establishment of Confucius Academy, the essential conflict is still there.
The hot sale of One Piece now must have affected the sale of his "Teacher Translated" and to some extent, he is a victim like us."
Xu Xiaode knew that if he fought alone, he would not be an opponent of the Chu Prince's Mansion.
Even if there is a daughter in the palace who helps me blow the pillow wind, it is useless.
"This is a good idea! The Imperial College also has its own newspaper, and a public opinion offensive will be formed at that time, so that the people of Chang'an City will know the true face of "One Piece"."
Wen Qiming catered to Xu Xiaode's words, but he was worried about how to sell the inventory in the warehouse.
Once this book is printed, there is no room for maneuver.
Chapter completed!
