Reborn Cultural Empire

"The entire line of "Clouds and Desolation" is in a hurry, and the volume of "Wandering in Kyushu is out of stock!" The salesperson team leader in charge of the juvenile books and comics section ran all the way excitedly and panicked, and arrived at the door of Fu Lili's manager's office. While trying to calm down his breathing, he reported.

Hearing the news, Fu Lili also put down the documents in her hands in surprise: "How come? When I checked the inventory years ago, didn't there still be a thousand volumes? Including the scattered books on the bookshelves and in the containers, there are more than 1000 volumes. The book is just sold out? It's not even 11 o'clock!"

The team leader confirmed with a wry smile, "It's really sold out! I just came over from the financial office and heard accountant Zeng say that the turnover has reached [-], not counting the VIP consumption area on the third floor."

Fu Lili didn't know what to say now, she must be happy, but what should she do this afternoon?Do you disappoint the students who couldn't buy "Cloud Desolation"?

Wouldn't that be slapping yourself in the face?It doesn't even sell "The Desolation of the Clouds", what is the number one bookstore in Yuezhou!

And she, Fu Lili, had made a guarantee with Wu Shi yesterday, and there was absolutely no problem with the inventory of all kinds of books, but not only did something go wrong in the blink of an eye, but the problem was not small, where would I put my face?

But after thinking for a while, Fu Lili still gritted her teeth, and then dialed Wu Shi, who was in charge of the overall situation in the administrative building. No matter what, she had to let him know the news as soon as possible. Deduction of bonuses, or verbal criticism, she can't care so much now.As for concealing information between the lower-level salesperson and Wu Shi, Fu Lili never thought about it.

"Hello, is this Mr. Wu? I'm Fu Lili..." This strong woman in her 30s who usually smiles in front of employees feels embarrassed, but still takes a deep breath, and Yuan Yuan reports the situation go up.

"That's right... that's right, that's it. There was originally a thousand volumes in stock at the warehouse, plus the loose volumes that have been unpacked, it is 67 volumes. Now there are no more volumes left... I invite criticism."

"Hehe, let's put aside your mistake for now. Manager Fu, organize your manpower, and new books will be shipped over from the logistics side immediately. In addition, we must also keep the readers who haven't bought the book and tell them that "The Wilderness of the Cloud" will be released soon." on shelves."

"Ah? Ah! I have a book... ok ok, eh, I understand, I'm going now..."

Hanging up the phone over there, Wu Shi couldn't believe it, things were indeed developing in the direction Yang Yi expected, and the stock of [-] copies was really not enough.

If he hadn't let Siyue's printing factory start work in advance, everyone would be devastated by now.

"Xiao Yi, Lao Wu called me just now, "The Volume of Clouds and Desolation has been sold out, and the new book that was printed yesterday has been loaded into the car, and I will be here soon." Luo Ge and Yang Yi were on their way to the bookstore, listening Hearing the news, the fat man slapped Yang Yi on the shoulder: "It shouldn't be, our sales volume in the first three days was still driven by Xiaowan's book signing, and we only bought [-] copies. What's going on today...you're getting more and more amazing!"

"Driving, Brother Luo, pay attention!"

god?Yang Yi curled his mouth lightly, there's nothing wrong with this, it's just that the people around him have never had such an experience.

According to the usual experience, when a bestseller is released, the sales function must be a decreasing curve, except that the first day is not a holiday.Calculated in this way, 5000 copies were sold in three days during the days of going to the market one year ago, and it would be great to reach 1000 copies in the next day.

Rogo is in the publishing industry. Although he is no stranger to book sales, he is definitely not as good as Wu Shi and others.Although Wu Shi is the branch manager of Xinhua Bookstore, he has no corresponding experience in operating popular comics that are quite different from general bestsellers.

In fact, nothing is worth much to put it bluntly—first, during the few days when the residents went to the market a few days ago, although the consumption power of residents was the strongest, this was the strongest for adults, that is, those in charge of the economic power in the family. People, although many students and children are thinking about the cartoon "Yun Huang", but at that time they had no money in their hands, and if their parents didn't buy it, they could only do nothing.

Now that these children have spare money that they can control, naturally they cannot predict sales according to common sense.

As for the second point, these days' propaganda bombardment, Yunzhong Book City Lantern Festival Book Fair big rewards, discounts and price cuts to give back to readers, almost all the eyes of readers in Yuezhou are focused here.If consumers have money and time, if they want to buy books, they will naturally not choose to consume at the place closest to home as before, but will make a special trip to Yunzhong Bookstore to buy books.

This is equivalent to the book market in the entire Yuezhou City. All the cakes on the day of the Lantern Festival were eaten by Yunzhong Bookstore.

When Yang Yi explained to Rogo, the car was passing in front of the book city. Today is a rare good winter weather, bright light pierces the sky, and the book city stands quietly in this light, bathed in brilliance and brilliance, as if A paper and ink temple above the clouds.

Rogo can be regarded as someone who has seen big scenes. Now that he sees the strange scene in front of him, his vision is in a trance, and he can't help muttering with emotion: "Book City, it's really Book City in the Clouds."

Yang Yi also turned his head slightly, staring in the car, his thoughts were also wandering: "Yes, Yunzhong Book City, our book city."

……

When Luo Ge and Yang Yi were busy for the Lantern Festival, Lin Xi, who was far away in the northern imperial capital, was now excited because of his decisive decision a month ago. Of course, he was also deeply grateful to that young man named Yang Yi. .

His music tape for "National Wind" is not exactly the same as Yang Yi's music tape released in conjunction with "Mo Yanshi" on New Year's Day.Because it is necessary to take care of the artistic conception of comics, when choosing music, three of the music included in the music tape of "Yun Huang" are more electronic-style and comic-style.

As for the batch of music tapes in Lin Xi's hands, instead of the three Japanese animation-style tracks, he chose another three songs that are more pure folk music.

But this is not a problem. The biggest problem now is that Yang Jincong, the boss of Fengchao Music, actually fell in love with this batch of ancient and new folk music in his hands. At first, the music boss on the South Island just wanted to act as a sales terminal. The role of se, eat this batch of tapes.

But after hearing that these tapes belonged entirely to Lin Xi, he had other thoughts.

OEM!

It's just OEM, sticking the brand of Feng Chao Music, and then using the name of national style and ancient style, it will definitely set off a wave of Chinese folk music in the island!

As South Island under different political parties and systems, the cultural connection with the mainland has not been severed. Although they each have different emphases, they still have a strong sense of identity in the most core cultural essence, and it can even be said that the South Island The very few traditional cultures that remain are more pure than those on the mainland.

For example, Nandao puppetry, developed from the traditional Fujian puppet show, is so popular on the island that it is unimaginable in the mainland where they cannot understand Hokkien. The soundtrack of these puppet shows has always been popular among otaku audiences. Our favorite cultural products.

And this box of ancient folk music tapes in Yang Jincong's hand is not inferior to the popular classic soundtrack of the Pili Puppet Show. If it can be labeled as trendy music, does that mean that in the future it can be What about cooperation with Thunderbolt Multimedia?

"Mr. Lin, I can tell you frankly that I am determined to win this tape." Wearing rimless glasses, Yang Jincong looked unattractive, but his light mouth and gentle demeanor easily made people Have a good impression of him.

Even though he was saying the obvious tough words like "you must win", it sounded more like a discussion, which probably has something to do with him being an excellent musician himself.

Lin Xi is not a serious businessman, not only does not have much dislike for Yang Jincong's words, but is happy because he attaches great importance to and cares about this album: "I can understand Mr. Yang's mood, and I am also very happy Love the album. But you'll have no problem buying the tapes, but when it comes to private labeling..."

"Didn't you say that when they signed the contract with your company, they had already given up all copyrights, including distribution rights?" Yang Jincong asked eagerly.

When an excellent musician meets an excellent pure music album, the magnetic field that erupts is no weaker than that of a man and woman in love.

"The problem is, I only have the right to sell it... After the copyright owner of this album terminated the contract between us, Mordu Audiovisual, all the rights have been taken back by the copyright owner."

Yang Sicong was depressed, he really couldn't believe that a publishing company would give up such an excellent music album.

"Then Mr. Lin, can you introduce me, I want to have an interview with the copyright owner of this album!"

Of course, Lin Xi would not refuse this request, she readily agreed, and then asked: "Then this tape of "National Style", Mr. Yang..."

"Yes, I want all of them. Isn't there 5 boxes? Give them all to me. When and how you want to pay is up to you. What I need is to get this batch as soon as possible. tape." After his request was met, Yang Jincong did not hesitate, not to mention that he himself was very optimistic about this folk music album, so of course he would not intentionally set up any obstacles.

After more than two months, the heart disease that had been weighing on Lin Xi's heart was finally resolved, making him feel that his shoulders were loose, like a monkey breaking free from Wuzhi Mountain, and every breath was free air.

And this time, because he got it at the cost price of making the music tape, but with Yang Sicong, it was sold at the wholesale price in the market, and between the entry and exit, there was actually around 20 in income.

This is simply unimaginable for a poor music editor who has worked in a state-owned institution for many years.

Immediately called the colleagues in the company: "Hello, Lao Gu? That's right, those tapes are still in the warehouse? Yes, I want to bring it up, all of them, you can help me go through the formalities, and I can just take it when I come back. is you!"

After making the phone call in front of Yang Jincong and reassuring the South Island music businessman, the two put aside their business matters and talked about music again.

In the building of Modu Audiovisual, the news that Lin Xi's music tapes had all been sold spread throughout the unit in a short while. After hearing the news, Xu Ziling, the general manager of the company, immediately took the Gu Rao, the editor-in-chief, called him to his office.

"Old Gu, Lao Lin called back, is he going to take all the tapes away? Did he really sell them all?"

Gu Rao nodded: "This matter should be true or not. You know Lao Lin, honestly, even if you ask him to make up a lie, he won't be able to make it up."

"Does someone really want this batch of tapes?" Xu Ziling shook his head in doubt: "He bought it at cost price?"

Gu Rao shook his head: "I'm not sure about this, but from his tone, he seems to be very happy. It should not be sold at cost price."

Xu Ziling shook his head and said, "Okay, it's nothing to worry about, you go ahead, after Lao Lin comes back, if he posted the money himself this time, you'd better talk to him and enlighten him... "

Before he finished speaking, the phone on the table rang. Seeing that he was busy, Gu Rao got up and prepared to go out. When he walked to the door, he heard Xu Ziling's voice out of tune because of surprise and disbelief: " What? The batch of tapes sent to Xinhua Bookstore sold out? Just these few days? They still want more goods?"

tape?Gu Rao, who was already outside preparing to bring it to the door, was still wondering. During the period of the end of the year, the company didn't release any tapes. What exactly was sold out?Still calling to ask for goods?

After Xu Ziling hung up the phone in the room, he rushed to the door like a gust of wind, looking around with his shriveled head: "Lao Gu, hey, Lao Gu, you are back, please contact Lao Lin, there is something urgent."

He was still muttering to himself: "How is this possible? It's really evil. How can something that no one wants suddenly become a bestseller! Now it's all right, I'm going to turn around and ask for that stubborn temper. "
