Chapter 26 Sister Pingpo
"Mengxi Xiaotan Sales Report", based on memory that I don't pay much attention to, Mengxi Xiaotan is a small magazine under Lixin Publishing House.
The former was an entertainment magazine. It was acquired by Huiyan a year later and changed its name to form it. The idea was very good at the beginning. It wanted to create its own publicity channel for the publisher and then add income to the publisher.
The name is taken from the encyclopedia "Mengxi Bitan", which shows the expectations for it.
But the ideal is 10-0 super god, but the reality is 0-10 super ghost.
The objective reason for the impact of my electronic reading, coupled with the fast pace, the subjective factor is that popular content is boring.
The circulation volume can be said to be very small. There is no detailed memory of the original owner of the specific volume, but it has been a loss after the acquisition.
That is, today, the editor-in-chief finally started counting and ready to sell.
"I remember that the Ming Pao founded by Mr. Jin Yong, which relies on martial arts novels, changed from worthless to the newspaper with the most influential influence in Xiangjiang."
Su Xuanmian was thinking about it, and he wanted to sell it anyway, thinking about whether to sell it from his mother first and find a way to revitalize it.
It just so happened that Su Xuanmian worked as an intern editor for several months and knew a lot of things, as for why he was not promoted to a regular business, or because of his diploma, or something else.
"Mengzai has been waiting for a long time, let's go." Hui Yan got it done and got up.
Such a shameful nickname sounds pretty good once you get used to this setting.
After all, no matter men and women, there is a little princess in her heart.
he,tui! No matter where we go, a hymn will flow out...
When Su Xuanmian left, he took Mengxi on the table and talked about today's newspaper.
Hui Yan and Su Xuanmian went straight to Yonghui Supermarket, specifically saying that Yonghui Supermarket did not pay advertising fees here. If there are staff from Yonghui Company, please be sure to convey this chapter by me.
Back to the point, if the tomato brisket is fast, it can be done in 20 minutes with a pressure cooker, but if the tomato brisket is crispy, you must stew it over low heat.
Su Xuanmian has a tomato brisket. Huiyan bought good ingredients last night. He got up early this morning, ginseng and stewed on low heat.
Now the two of them are going to the supermarket to buy vegetables and cold dishes. It is past six o'clock in the afternoon, and there are a lot of people in the supermarket, especially at the cash register, which is a long queue.
Su Xuanmian lined up with peace of mind, but I don’t know if the ground was uneven. As I lined up, the line became crooked, and it also changed from one vertical to two and three lines.
Our writer Su is very angry, especially when he is serious and doesn't like the chaos in the team.
Fortunately, there was no quarrel at the end. After paying the money, Sister Yan, as the editor-in-chief of the publishing house, naturally drove by herself.
According to the original owner's memory, Sister Yan liked to drive a speed car when she was young, and was known as "Pingpo Jie". She was walking on flat ground under the undulating mountain roads in the mountain city.
So, it took an average of about twenty minutes to get there, and Sister Yan arrived in ten minutes.
When you go back to your nest, Sister Yan cooks and prepares the vegetables and soup.
The mother and son made a meal, tomato brisket, sweet and sour cabbage, braised pig mouth, and finally cucumber crust and egg soup.
"Is RB's study going smoothly? Have you ever had an argument with the teacher?"
"I've made a few girlfriends, did you have two boats?"
"By the way, if you fight with someone, you can use a wooden stick. Don't use a knife, but I don't use a wooden stick to greet you."
"Have you thought about what to do after graduation? Should I go back to China or at RB."
During the meal, Sister Yan, who hadn't seen her for a long time, naturally asked about her concerns, but Su Xuanmian found that the content of her mother's inquiry was somewhat wrong.
Have you ever had an argument with the teacher? I haven't gotten rid of the two bridge boats yet, and don't greet the wooden stick on my head. In your mind, what is your son's shocking evil?
Su Xuanmian thought about it carefully. According to his memory, except for his favorite kTV with his friends, the rest of the original body is quite obedient. Not to mention having disputes with teachers or classmates, they rarely have disputes with them.
"There is something to do in RB, so I have to go back to RB." Su Xuanmian ignored the previous three questions and answered while eating.
"Okay." Sister Yan never asks. Su Xuanmian likes to eat tomato and beef brisket, so she rarely picks it up. Of course, she lives a wealthy life and will not be hungry. Huiyan bought the braised pig she likes to eat.
"I was eating just now and said that I had something to discuss with you. What's the matter?" Sister Yan asked.
"I just saw Mengxi Xiaotan in the office for sale." Su Xuanmian said: "I looked at the report roughly, or the planning stage, how long will it take from drafting the plan to formal handover?"
Sister Yan put down her chopsticks and thought for a moment, and said, "There are fewer people reading newspapers. Even I read the hot news pushed by my mobile phone. If you want to buy a suitable price, it is expected to take half a year."
"In half a year." Su Xuanmian nodded and asked again: "How is our publishing house?"
"The country's crackdown on piracy is becoming more and more severe, and the awareness of authenticity of 80,90,000 is getting stronger and stronger, so domestic physical publishing is not as difficult as imagined." Sister Yan said.
Speaking of this, Sister Yan sighed: "Before the millennium, the 1990s, that was the golden age of writers, with millions of books sold."
"Is it possible to reproduce the sales volume of that era?" Su Xuanmian asked curiously.
"Why is Mengzi suddenly interested in the publishing house?" Sister Yan smiled, but thought seriously and finally shook her head.
"It's hard, almost impossible," she said.
"This question is answered by the background of the times and the main limitations." Sister Yan's language has been organized and said: "Now, entertainment tools are diverse. In addition to reading books, you can choose from games, TV shows, movies, and short videos. These are just entertainment that can be completed at home, and there are more outside, so you have to break through the background and write books that can surpass the above entertainment activities."
Su Xuanmian nodded and continued to listen.
"Then I talk about the main restrictions. Now there are online books that are not limited by lazy cancer, but the average price of physical books is 24, and the online e-book price is extremely cheap."
"It was only using Lixin Publishing House to authorize Dangdang.com's e-books, which were only 2.8rmb, which is already quite high." Sister Yan said: "The gap between the two is 8.5 times. The most important thing is that e-books can be read on mobile phones, readers, and tablets, which is very convenient."
Su Xuanmian calculated silently in his heart, 24÷2.8, and concluded that Sister Yan's mental arithmetic ability did not regress at all.
"Some readers like the fragrance of books. They will read physical books, but to restore the golden age, people who do not read physical books also buy books." Sister Yan paused and smiled: "Unless there is a kind of book that can only be read physical books, or if you read electronic versions, you will lose a lot of things."
The above factors are the reasons why Sister Yan believes that it is basically impossible. Suspense novels can be satisfied occasionally, but occasionally, a few cannot recover the market.
"Sister Yan is amazing." Su Xuanmian applauded.
"Or why do you think of your mother?" Sister Yan picked up the chopsticks and continued to eat.
"Sister Yan, I want to buy Mengxi Xiaotan anyway. Can I leave it to me for management in the remaining half a year?" Su Xuanmian said.
"Okay, I'll ask Guangcheng to come and help you." Sister Yan agreed without hesitation.
