Chapter 297 The difference

At the beginning of May, "Ghost Blowing Lantern" is finally on the market!

Also listed at the same time is Jiang Xiao's "Quiet Seaside".

The bet between Chen Ge and Jiang Xiao was broadcast live at the beginning, and many news media have since reported it.

Later, he couldn't say anything and fired at the literary world, saying that the literary world was a fart, which caused quite a stir on the Internet.

Although it has been a long time since the hot search, the previous popularity has made all the media greedy, so the bet with Jiang Xiao has naturally become the focus of attention of these people and the media.

"Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is the same as "The Quiet Seaside", the first print is 10, but the difference is that "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is a set of 8 copies, while "The Quiet Seaside" has only one copy, both can Said to be of different magnitudes.

"The Quiet Seaside" has 25 words and is priced at 25 yuan.

"Ghost Blowing the Lantern" has 8 volumes, 200 million words, and is priced at 150 yuan.

In terms of price, of course "Ghost Blowing Lantern" is more expensive, but on average, "Ghost Blowing Lantern" is much more cost-effective.

These are all secondary, what everyone sees is the sales of the two books!
A reporter from Jiangning Newspaper went to the largest bookstore in Jiangning City - Utopia Bookstore early this morning.

Utopia Bookstore is the most famous bookstore in Jiangning City, and its scale is also one of the best in Jiangning City.

Newspaper reporters often come here to report some cultural events, and of course they are also familiar with the bookstore owner.

It is said that the owner of this store bought 100 sets of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" in one go, which can be described as very bold!
You know, a bookstore dares to buy 100 copies of a single book if it is already a very popular book, let alone "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" has 8 copies in a volume!
The owner of this store also dared to take it because of the indescribable appeal and the sales prospects of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".

In their eyes, although this is the first time a book has been published, they have already treated him as a best-selling author.

Of course, they also took 50 copies of "The Quiet Seaside".

Originally, when writers like Jiang Xiao published books, their stores would only buy four or five books at most, but thanks to Chen Ge, Jiang Xiao's popularity has also risen recently, so the bookstore also bought more of his new books.

Reporters from the Jiangning Newspaper came to the Utopia store early in the morning. The store opened at 10 am. When the reporters came, the bookstore hadn’t opened yet, but there was already a long line outside the bookstore, at least a hundred people.

Anyone who knows a little bit knows that the book market is not what it used to be. Nowadays, people are more willing to go to movies, concerts, or even play games in Internet cafes. Few people are willing to come to bookstores.

Most of the people who come to the bookstore are students, or parents who buy reference books for their children.

It is not impossible to buy some novels for entertainment or to pursue art.

But it's so early...

It seems that I have never seen it.

With curiosity, the reporter interviewed some of the people in the front row.

"Hello, are you guys together?"

"Yes, we are classmates."

"Are you all here to buy books?"

"Yes."

"Otherwise, what are you doing in the bookstore?"

"What book do you want to buy?"

""Ghost Blows Out the Lamp"!"

"Oh... what time did you guys come?"

"It's been almost 2 hours since I came here. I don't know that this bookstore opened so late."

"Come so early, do you like this book very much?"

"Of course, we know that there will be content later this time, and we can't wait to watch it, so we bought it early."

"There are so many of you, why don't you just buy a set and watch it instead?" the reporters asked.

The students laughed out loud.

"What's wrong?" The reporter was puzzled.

The first boy said, "I bought it as a gift for a friend."

The people behind booed and said, "Girlfriend."

The first boy did not deny it, but was a little shy.

"Then what about you, are you also going to send a girlfriend?" The reporter asked.

A boy in the middle said: "Let me tell you, many people in our school read this novel. After I buy it, I can brag in front of them after reading the plot behind it!"

The reporter took a look at this boy and knew that he was a talkative person, and he bought "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" to attract people's attention.

"I bought it, and some girls will borrow books for me to read..."

"I like Shen Xue very much. Her support on Weibo is beyond words. I want to support it too. It's not expensive anyway."

"I like Chen Yupu very much. He is Chen Yupu's Bole. Of course I have to support it. Besides, everyone says this novel is good. I bought it to read it."

"Everyone bought it, and I'm a bit out of place if I don't buy it."

The reporter listened to the reasons of this group of people and became very happy. Although the students do not have the ability to make money on their own, there are too many rich children in Jiangning City. Even if they have no money, they can save a little a month and buy a set of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp". questionable.

After interviewing the first few people, the reporter went to the back team to interview some more.

As a result, nearly half of them wanted to buy "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".

The other half had their own reasons, not because of Jiang Xiao.

The reporter has not asked about the readers who came to buy "The Quiet Seaside" clearly!

The difference!
After a general interview, the reporter couldn't help but feel emotional.

It's hard to describe this author, the founder of Script Kill, the planner of the programs "Star Detective" and "I Love Lyrics", and these have a greater influence in Jiangning City than in other cities.

Although it is hard to say that he is not from Jiangning, it is not an exaggeration to say that Jiangning is Chen Ge's headquarters.

That's why there is such a scene in the bookstore here.

Seeing the big from the small, in just a short interview, you can see the author's influence in Jiangning City beyond words.

This is definitely a level that can only be achieved by a best-selling author.

In the whole of China, there are only a handful of people who can be regarded as best-selling authors!

Although the degree of best-selling is not necessarily related to artistic achievement, it can be seen that the influence of an author.

To put it more vulgarly, you can see the earning power of an author!

Soon, the door of the bookstore opened.

The queuing crowd filed in, and the reporter also followed in and took a lot of photos.

On the bookshelf at the entrance of the bookstore, the most conspicuous place is a set of 8 copies of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", Jiang Xiao's "The Quiet Seaside", and other bestsellers.

The set of "Ghost Blowing Lantern" is sealed and bound, but in the display area, there are samples for viewing.

Everyone saw the physical book of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" for the first time, and they were attracted by the cover of this book.

The cover design of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is very interesting. The main body is mainly black, and the title of the book is a little weird in red, which looks like blood. This is in line with the style of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".

But after looking carefully, the reporter found that there is a small person on the cover of every "Ghost Blowing Lantern".

These characters seem to be wearing masks, but each one is very different, like a doll, or a paper-cut, with a sense of design, and it doesn't have the rough feeling of web works at all.

The reporter took a few photos of the cover of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", and saw a queue at the cashier of the bookstore.

And the people in the team, almost everyone has a set of "Ghost Blowing Lantern"!
