Journey to the West: Play Westward Journey at the beginning

Chapter 122 Biographical novels that have been seriously impacted

While Taoism and Buddhism launched their own photo dramas to dominate the ratings, Yun Tianqing once again met with the owner of the Twelve Bookstores in the reception room of Qimeng Pavilion.

Although they now have Qimeng handheld devices, and everyone has added Qimeng WeChat friends to each other, everyone is also in the Qimeng Book Alliance WeChat group.However, when it comes to matters that require major discussion, the master of Twelve Bookstores is still used to coming to Qimeng Pavilion in person to discuss with Yun Tianqing behind closed doors.

“Have sales of novels really dropped that much?”

Yun Tianqing frowned and looked at the owner of Twelve Bookstores. He had said before in the Qimeng Book Alliance micro-chat group that the topic of today's meeting was the sharp decline in sales of biographical novels in recent times.

"It has indeed decreased a lot, especially as Qimeng Handheld is promoted more and more, the sales volume of biographical novels has decreased more. Last month, the sales volume of biographical novels in my bookstore decreased by 20.00%. The sales volume of biographical novels dropped to 30.00% per month."

Shopkeeper Huang of Chang'an Bookstore said with a bitter look on his face. You must know that the sales volume of biographical novels in his bookstore are now measured in hundreds of millions. This is a direct reduction of 20.00%, or even more than 30.00%, which is directly tens of millions. Sales are gone.

"My bookstore is basically in the same situation. The sales volume of novels decreased by 18.00% last month and 20.00% last month."

Shopkeeper Chen of Qitan Bookstore also sighed.

Other bookstore owners also reported their reduced sales. Generally speaking, compared with last year, online biographical novels have begun to be serialized on Qimeng Handheld, especially "Journey to the West" and "Sou Shen Zhuan" from Buddhist and Taoist schools. After the two film dramas were also released on Qimeng Handheld, the sales volume of their biographical novels has dropped sharply to about 20.00% to around [-]%.

"Is it such a big impact?"

Yun Tianqing rubbed his eyebrows, and he suddenly realized that he might have misjudged the impact of Qimeng Handheld on biographical novels.In previous lives, the rise of online novels and smartphones happened step by step, so even if it had an impact on the physical book industry, the reaction was not as strong as the one Qimeng Book Alliance is experiencing now.

After all, although the novel is good to read, the TV series is more popular for users than it is!You still have to read the physical novel once a week, and you still have to imagine the plot and scenes by yourself.But the TV series is so good, with sound and pictures, and one episode a day!It is impossible for this situation not to be a major blow to the novel.

But it would be even more impossible for Yun Tianqing to give up Qimeng Handheld and Qimeng Network.Because of Qimeng Handheld and Qimeng Network, his Origin Points have now accumulated to 360 billion!He has taken a big step closer to becoming the Great Luo Jinxian, and the accumulation speed is still accelerating.

Because both Taoism and Buddhism are supporting the promotion of Qimeng Handheld and Qimeng Network.Only if the number of Qimeng Handheld users increases, their influence and ratings will be higher.

At the same time, based on the requirements of Taoism and Buddhism, Yun Tianqing has now opened the Qimeng handheld access array.In other words, as long as a practitioner depicts and deploys the relevant Qimeng handheld array on the relevant carrier, and then uses the activation code purchased from Qimeng Pavilion to activate it, he can access the Qimeng network.

For example, in addition to Qimeng brand Qimeng handheld consoles, there are also Lingshan brand handheld consoles, Shushan brand handheld consoles, etc. on the market today.

However, Yun Tianqing also understands that the fundamental reason for the sharp decline in sales of biographical novels is actually the change in the user group who buys biographical novels.

It turns out that there are not many interesting entertainment projects in the three worlds.The emergence of biographical novels met the spiritual needs of ancient creatures, so sales exploded.At this stage, users who buy novels are users who need spiritual and cultural food. It is an overall user performance, including true novel lovers, poor people who lack spiritual satisfaction, curious people who follow the trend, etc.

Now, after being impacted by Qimeng Handheld and Qimeng Network, the user group that originally purchased biographical novels has been filtered out, leaving only true novel lovers and some curious followers.Those poor people who lack spiritual satisfaction and other curious people who follow the trend have all flocked to the novelty of Qimeng handheld machine and Qimeng Network.

Therefore, it is normal for the sales volume of biographical novels to decline, and may even drop to 50.00% of the previous level.At that time, the number of novel purchases shown will be the real number of readers for biographical novels.

But the truth is this. No matter what, Yun Tianqing started his career through biographical novels, and he still has some affection for biographical novels.

[Since the number of buyers who buy biographical novels has been reduced by the impact of Qimeng Handheld and Qimeng Network, I will create another buying group to bind them to biographical novels for bundled sales! 】

Yun Tianqing had a vague idea about this, but he had to go back to the original space of the Consciousness Sea and Yun Xinghe to jointly deduce it to see if it was feasible.

Thinking of this, Yun Tianqing looked up at the shopkeepers whose eyes were fixed on him and said:
"I already have a vague idea about the sharp drop in sales of biographical novels, but the reality needs to be verified. Please wait for a while. After verification, I will give you a solution."

"In addition, I have told you before about industrial transformation and upgrading. Don't just look at the novel industry! For example, the current film and film dramas are an emerging industry. Among them, the ratings of "Journey to the West" and "Sou Shen Zhuan" I also told you what the rate is!

With a ratings of over 90.00% and more than 20 billion Qimeng handheld users watching online, one episode costs only a penny of subscription fee.

In one night, it was more than 20 billion yuan!
Let alone selling novels, even if you try to rob Datang Bank, you won’t be able to make money as quickly as this! ! ! "

When the shopkeepers heard Yun Tianqing's words, they started to feel heavy breathing after just imagining it for a moment.This, this, such a terrifying profit, it is really not as fast to rob Datang Bank!
"If you have time, you may wish to do more research and try more. Compared with other people who want to enter the photography industry, they still need to find actors, make up stories, etc. We ourselves have a large number of excellent biographies to choose from. . Of course, don’t even think about the novels produced by Qimeng Pavilion. Think about how to remake the biographical novels in your bookstore into a documentary drama, and then play them on the Qimeng network through the Qimeng handheld device.

At that time, all the profits lost in biographical novels will be earned back in photos! "

Looking at the shopkeepers who were beginning to think about the film drama, Yun Tianqing nodded secretly.This time the shopkeeper of Twelve Bookstores must have really listened. It is estimated that after this time, the shopkeepers of Twelve Bookstores will really start trying to find people to shoot photo dramas.

No matter how bad the filming is, as long as there is such a beginning.It will always get better and better in the future, but if it doesn’t work out like in the previous life, where the big waves wash over the sand and after a lot of filming, there will always be one or two wizards who can make a watchable work.

Otherwise, if he relies on him alone to support it like now, it won't be long before his film and television inventory will be drained by Buddhism and Taoism.Previously, Buddhism and Taoism approached Yun Tianqing to launch another film drama of their own, but Yun Tianqing declined with excuses.However, some basic methods for filming video dramas were also given to Buddhists and Taoists. As for whether they could make a video drama that was watchable, Yun Tianqing didn't know what the result would be.
