360 Unexpected
Zhang Chu followed them slowly to the downstairs of the dormitory and said, "You two go back to the dormitory to read books, I have to take a walk back to write books."
Yang Ling had wanted to say this a long time ago. The sun was not as attractive as reading books. He immediately nodded and said, "Okay, let's contact you later. I just saw the third subtitle of "The Fifteenth Year of Wanli".
"I will discuss this book with you later. I will read it twice before talking about it."
...
Zhang Chu was not in a hurry to run back. He slowly walked around the campus, thinking carefully about the news he had received from the Wild Grass Bookstore before.
Since we are going to re-tender, can our own Hanlinxuan Bookstore get a piece of the pie?
Although it is not very reliable to open a branch so far from Jiangcheng to Yanjing, Zhang Chu really wants to see his bookstore appear on the campus of Yanjing University.
This is probably a pilgrimage psychology. Yenching University has an extraordinary status in the minds of the entire people. It is the best school and has the best students. If it can really open a branch, it will be a dream!
However, Zhang Chu is not such an impulsive person. It is not easy to open a new bookstore. He hasn't figured out the specific matter of the bidding yet, so he has to check it carefully before he knows it.
In fact, he does not open a bookstore now to make money. If he really wants to make money, he can write one more book, and the money he earns may be more than opening a bookstore, and it is even easier.
After returning home, Matcha squatted on the carpet and waited for him to open the door. When Zhang Chu squatted down to change his shoes, he touched the little guy's head. Just when he was about to pick it up, Matcha stumbled away, leaving only a round and black back!
Zhang Chu picked up a bottle of mineral water and opened it, took a few sips, sat in front of the computer to continue his morning work, and wrote that he would go to the gym outside the community to exercise at three or four o'clock. He ate too well during the Spring Festival and lacked exercise, and his abdominal muscles were almost overwhelmed by fat.
Perhaps it was caused by mild obsessive-compulsive disorder. After seeing a QQ message reminder, he had to click on it to check it, otherwise he would always feel itchy.
The beating little penguin was very unhappy. After Zhang Chu clicked it and found that it was Gu Xinxue, the editor of Nanhai Publishing Company!
When Gu Xinxue signed "Detective Sherlock", he did not pull the money tree "Ghost Blows Out the Light" with enough chips. Fortunately, the two sides have re-edited it with the 15th Year of Wanli.
Gu Xinxue sent a message and said, "Xiao Zhang, let me tell you good news. The 500,000 books we printed first have been out of the warehouse. I have applied for the second printing, and I expect it to be printed 500,000 times this time. We have all had a little mistake in the market before, but I didn't expect such works to be very popular, especially among college students, and even many teachers and office workers have bought your books."
Out-of-warehouse does not mean it is sold out. It may be at the dealer or at the bookstore. It may be that 500,000 books will not be sold out in one day.
Zhang Chu saw with his own eyes how popular this book is on the Yan University campus. He thought it was because of the alumni relationship that made it sell better, but he didn't expect it to sell well on the other campuses!
"Editor Gu, do you think the 15th Year of Wanli will win this week?"
Gu Xinxue's response was quite fast, probably because he had been waiting. "I can only say that there is a relatively high probability that it has very good actual sales, and the online sales volume is a bit small, so it needs to be seen from the faces of the other works."
The ranking list is not only about books, but also about many other works.
The TV series effect of "Sherlock Detective" has gradually passed. Even if there is news of Zhang Chu's contract renewal to help you extend your life, it is still very difficult to hold the top spot. The daily sales in the past two days have dropped to the brink of the top ten, and today I guess I will leave directly from the top ten!
Nowadays, the number one book with Chinese characteristics is a book. Although the "Secretary Series Important Speech Reader" produced by People's Publishing House does not have any discounts, the physical sales are amazing, almost 100% reaching the point, and few people buy e-book versions.
Behind the famous host Xiao Xu is promoting her works. She is the most popular female host at the moment, and there are also a large group of celebrities in the entertainment industry to recommend this book "Xiao Xu's Happiness Lesson to Women" is coming in full force!
In addition, "Business Department 2", which claims to be a must-win book for workplace wars, is also very attractive. Even though this book has been published for almost a year, it has become popular again for some reason recently.
The most bizarre one is probably the book "Healthy Life Lowers Blood Lipids" published in 2008. This book is one of the three-hypertensive health care series, proving that modern humans have higher and higher requirements for health, and they even have to buy a book to study.
Now, "The Fifteenth Year of Wanli" is almost impossible to win compared to these books. Everyone actually sells it almost the same, and winning is just a matter of slight minus.
Gu Xinxue sighed: "In the past, your physical books and e-books accounted for about 1:1, each accounting for half of them. Even when "Ghost Blows Out the Light", e-books were sold higher than physical books. But this time it was different. "The Fifteenth Year of Wanli" has been released for so long, but it has not yet topped the major e-book lists!"
E-book downloads have always been an important part of Zhang Chu's sales, because most of his readers are young people, and young people need more when using e-books.
He walked on these two legs, but now one leg is incomplete, which casts a shadow on the prospect of winning the championship.
He quickly opened Amazon's online bookstore to see what was going on. After all, the Internet is an important cornerstone of his. He should not reach the top too quickly before!
On the Amazon e-book rankings, the first in the real-time rankings is a work called "Miracle Boy". The movie adapted from this book is being released hotly around the world, touching one person after another. It is extremely normal for the original Chinese version to top it.
Zhang Chu kept slid his mouse down until he found the book "The Fifteenth Year of Wanli" in the 8th place. Not to mention reaching the top, he didn't even enter the top five.
The new book sales list is probably its only fig leaf, at least it is ranked first on this list, and this number is indeed not optimistic.
"This is probably the difference between popular and academic works. It seems that this book can only focus on the promotion of physical books."
