Across the literary and art world

Chapter 237 The Joy of Sales

As the setting sun fell, the afterglow swayed from one end of the city to the other. In the extremely warm dark red light, the steel in the city seemed to have a hint of warmth.

There is no such thing as eternal cold and stiffness, and the huge glaciers in Antarctica will melt one day, not to mention others.

In essence, no one yearns for the cold.

The setting sun casts a quiet light on the courtyard, bathing the old trees, young grasses, stones, etc. in the courtyard with a layer of mystery.

The combination of light and life is a mystery that people will only appreciate but not explore.

Under the shade of old trees and around Shi Zhuo, rattan chairs and stools have been taken into the house, and people have also entered the house naturally. The light of the setting sun is for enjoying rather than reading.

In the hall of the house, under the man-made incandescent lamp, the three generations, the old, the middle and the young, are reading their books attentively, their expressions changing with the development of the storyline in the book.His brows seemed to be wrinkled.

The hall is quiet, only the breathing of the three generations slows down with the changes of the clock. The hall for meeting guests or chatting with the family seems to have a bit more charm of a reading environment.Time passed silently in this charm, and the passage was very clear and obvious, but the three people in the hall did not pay attention to it, obviously no one was watching.

……

On the wall in the same direction as the hall and the TV, inside a clock, several needles are walking silently. Their mission is to go around a center, walking persistently, without stopping, until the end of existence.At this moment, the hour and minute hands on the clock formed a 150-degree angle with a slight deviation, and the time was approaching seven o'clock.

Concentrating on reading, the three of them finally moved.

"It's really exciting! I didn't expect that martial arts novels could be written like this. If this story is put on the screen, many people will definitely look forward to it." Gently closing the "Seven Weapons: Longevity Sword" in his hand, Peng surnamed Zhong Nian praised.Just after reading the content recorded in the deluxe version of the book, the middle-aged Peng has been deeply shocked, and martial arts novels can also be written in this way.

"Moving to the screen? This idea has been thought of a lot, but Mr. Yueyuan doesn't seem to have this level of meaning. Many people have sent invitations to Mr. Yueyuan but have not responded." Carefully folded a corner where he saw it , said the old man.

"Dad, how do you know about this?" After hearing what the old man said, the middle-aged Peng surnamed asked after being taken aback.When did my father care about these things coming?

"I know, I know, since I introduced Yue Yuanda to grandpa, grandpa has updated news about Yue Yuanda on the Internet every day." The little grandson raised his head and answered.After finishing speaking, he lowered his head to imitate his grandfather, and made a small mark in the place he just saw in the book. Instead of folding a corner, he put a small bookmark.

"Huh?" The middle-aged Peng surnamed was taken aback again, and looked at his old father, when did it happen.

"Hehe, what happened a few months ago, at that time, Xiao Cheng watched Dou Break Sphere every day. Well, it was Mr. Yueyuan's first fantasy novel serialized on the Internet. It is still being serialized. Although it has no connotation, it does have a lot. People read it again. Oh, it’s a bit off topic. There seems to be something wrong with the first update of this book. It seems that because of the update problem, Mr. Yueyuan opened another book, saying that there is no money, and I will compensate everyone. Xiaocheng asked me for money and a reward after reading this book, The Sword of Longevity with Seven Weapons, and then I became a little interested and read it, and I became Mr. Yueyuan's most loyal book fan." The old man Talk about the original cause of the matter.Now that the words have come to an end, the identity of the old man is ready to be revealed, Peng Chang.

"It turned out to be like this, Xiao Cheng, you are not allowed to ask grandpa for money in the future." Peng Fei, Peng Chang's son, ordered his son Peng Cheng.

"Oh, I see." Peng Cheng said perfunctorily, he usually didn't listen to what his father said.And he also knew what would happen next, and it was almost a habit for such scenes to be staged in this hall.

"What are you talking about? As long as Xiao Cheng doesn't spend money indiscriminately, he will still give it if there is a reason, so don't meddle in it. I know what to do." Peng Chang stared at Peng Fei and said.Intergenerational parenting, manifested in all aspects.

"Dad, you can't spoil him. It's not good to spend money on him at such a young age." Peng Fei said dumbfounded.

"What's wrong, as long as you don't spend it indiscriminately, Xiao Cheng has reimbursed me for all the money he spent, and you don't have to worry about the money I gave him." Peng Chang patted the book with his hand, and said .

"Yes, I don't care." Peng Fei glared at his son who was chuckling aside, and replied.With Lao Tzu here, I can't control the little one myself.

"Dad, the Mr. Yueyuan you mentioned published the book on that website, and I will go and reward these two books too." After staring at his son, Peng Fei said to his father.

"Chuangdian, Chuangdian Chinese website, you will find it when you search on Wancha, it is indeed time to reward, and I will also reward 1000 yuan to Yueyuan Da, Peacock Ling, the writing is very good! "Peng Chang said.

"Grandpa, have you finished watching?" Xiao Cheng asked Peng Chang with a smile.

"After reading it, hehe, not yet, the grandpa who just watched it didn't even figure it out." Peng Chang said to his little grandson with a smile.

"Grandpa, why did you say it as if you had finished reading it? I read it much faster than you, and I didn't say anything." The little grandson Peng Cheng said.

"Uh, that's because we read different stories." Peng Chang said in a daze.He knows that he reads books word by word, while his grandson reads books in jumps.To be precise, what I see is not only the text but also other things, while what my little grandson sees is only the plot.

Many things in the world can be used to read, but people who use them read with their eyes, while some people really read with their hearts.

The little grandson Peng Cheng obviously didn't understand what Peng Chang said. He tilted his head and looked at his grandfather, waiting for an answer.

"Haha, you will understand in the future." Peng Chang said with a smile.

"This story also taught us a lesson. The real victory is not something you can win with weapons, but you must use your confidence. No matter how terrible the weapon is, it cannot compare with the confidence of human beings. So the first thing I said The second weapon is not the peacock feather, but confidence! What kind of weapon is the peacock feather? Confidence?" When Peng Chang was talking to his little grandson, Peng Fei changed the book in his hand from "Sword of Longevity" to "Longevity Sword". "Peacock Ling", he turned to a page at random, chanting the contents of the book, but this "Sword of Longevity", which is equivalent to solving puzzles, made him even more puzzled, peacock feathers and confidence, what kind of logic is this? , what kind of story is there?
Unable to understand the question, he raised his head, just in time to see the old father and his son had finished their conversation, although he wanted to know the story inside Peacock Ling, but Peng Fei still said.

"Dad, it's getting late, let's go out for dinner tonight."

While talking, Peng Fei raised his head slightly, and looked at the clock on the wall. The minute hand had already passed the mark of six. When chatting, the time was also so imperceptible.

"Ah, what time is it?"

While asking, Peng Chang turned his head to look at the clock on the wall. After seeing it clearly, he nodded and said.

"07:30 is too much, so fast, it's okay, stop cooking, go out to eat and rest, and read a book when you come back."

"Well, that's good, let's go." Peng Fei stood up and said.

"Let's go eat." The little grandson jumped off the sofa.

"Put down the book, what would it look like to have a book for dinner?" Peng Fei taught.

……

I just went out to have a meal. There was nothing to clean up. After turning off the lights, the three generations of the Peng family walked out of the hall and opened the courtyard door. The light at the door was already on, and a tree beside it was blowing by the wind, and a leaf was falling. Although it is still a green leaf, it is not only the color that affects the leaf fall.

How could the leaves be willing to be blown down by the autumn wind, but they couldn't resist it.

"Going back and buying a few more copies to give to customers, there should be a lot of gains. The deluxe version is gone, and the regular version should be available tomorrow. Well, you can also promote it, help promote it, and promote the second batch It’s on the market.” After starting the car, and looking at the two luxury edition books that were placed in front of the console to take home, Peng Fei suddenly had an idea in his mind.

……

……

The sun is setting and rising, and the morning light has changed from mild to hot inadvertently.

The heat of the sun's rays is generally very high, but what is hotter than the sun's rays is the enthusiasm and desire of the heart.

Perhaps it was because it was not a deliberate arrangement for celebrity whispers, or maybe it was because of the fame of Moon Moon Zijin City itself, or maybe it was because of the quality of the work itself.

The "Seven Weapons Series" written by Yueyuan Zijincheng is very popular.

Whether it is "Sword of Longevity" or "Peacock Ling", people are enthusiastic, especially "Peacock Ling" has no electronic version on the Internet, and the sales volume has reached a record high.

On the Internet, since Lin Feng admitted in a postscript of the book that "Seven Weapons" is a series in the postscript of the book, one is called "Peacock Ling, which is even more beautiful than a peacock's tail." 'The post was refined and pinned to the top, and there were countless replies.

The content of the post is as follows.

"Peacock feather. There is absolutely no hidden weapon in the world that is more terrifying than peacock feather, and there is absolutely no hidden weapon that is more beautiful than peacock feather. No one can describe its beauty, and no one can avoid it and parry it." This is the description of Peacock Ling by Mr. Yueyuan Zijincheng in the article. Although it is short, it shows the characteristics of Peacock Ling before our eyes. Just like the description of Peacock Ling, Mr. Yueyuan Zijincheng’s description of Peacock Ling The narration is also so touching.

At present, there are three books that have been called new martial arts on the Internet, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" by Mr. Lin Feng, "Seven Weapons: Longevity Sword" and "Peacock Feather" written by Mr. Yueyuan Zijincheng, and I like it the most. The best is "Peacock Ling", even if I just finished it.As for why it is not slightly higher than Changsheng and Peacock Shooting Condor in terms of quality, level and other aspects, I think maybe it is because Shooting Condor is too conformist. Of course, I definitely admire Mr. Lin Feng's level.

What I like about "Peacock Feather" is not only its story itself, but also the rich imagination space it leaves for people and the description of human noble emotions.The article cleverly blends people and natural scenery into one, and the lofty feelings appear more tragic and heroic under the autumn colors.It makes people full of blood, soul-stirring, and makes people cry.At this time, the autumn colors look even more bleak, more like a painting, a deep landscape.

Although there is a description of friendship in the story, there is of course a description of love.But there is not much ink, but the conflict between feelings and responsibilities and the protagonist's inner confession are vividly displayed. The article is short and concise, the dialogue is rich but not sloppy, the storyline is simple but suspenseful,... the heart is raging The fire burned, the blood surged, and the tears gathered into a river.

This is my impression of "Peacock Feather" written by Mr. Yueyuan, everyone laughs at me. "

""Peacock Ling" is my favorite new martial arts novel, and the author's comments are mighty." ——A Soldier from Jianghu
"It's not self-confidence, it's deceiving yourself. It's like a gambler who always thinks he will win, but when he wins, others will feel fear and lose again. I don't explain. The landlord is mighty, and the full moon is even more mighty."— — a smile breaks the sky

"When I saw Peacock Ling, I burst into tears. What really touched me was not confidence, but friendship, such as the friendship between Qiu Fengwu and Gao Li. Only with such friendship, can there be such confidence." ——I put myself When the landlord
……

Because of the appearance of "Peacock Ling", the post bar has become a bit different, although this alternative is the original function of the post bar, to discuss plots and research experience.Perhaps it is because there are too few classics worth discussing, and there are too many places that can be discussed, that the function of the post bar is distorted.

The high-ranking post was reposted frantically on the Internet, and more people joined the army of discussions, and the two weapons that appeared in "Seven Weapons" became more and more popular.

No matter how great the investment in publicity is and no matter how famous the author is, it can't compare to word-of-mouth from readers.The power of people united is terrifying.

"The moon is big. I just received the statistics from Tianxing Publishing House. More than half of the 80 volumes of the series of seven weapons released yesterday have already sold out. According to statistics, it is not far from being sold out." In the room, Lin Feng I'm on the phone with Joon Woo's editor ee.

"Classics are classics. Master Gu Long's reasoning and martial arts works are so brilliant no matter in that world!" Lin Feng exhaled slightly and sighed in his heart. "Legend of the Condor Heroes" has proved this point not long ago, and now "Seven Weapons Series" provides strong proof for this point.Not only works, but also people, where ability can shine and attract attention.

The aftermath of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has not completely dissipated. The appearance of the two "Seven Weapons Series" has made countless readers of novels have a vague feeling in their hearts that an era of martial arts seems to be coming. Yes, with such a wonderful work as the opening and introduction, the new era of martial arts is not far away.Even if there are some blunt imitations at the beginning, how can there be innovation on the old basis without skilled imitation.The matter of old trees and new shoots cannot be ignored in all walks of life in history.

"That's good. The better the sales of the works, the more benefits everyone can get." After sighing, Lin Feng typed on the keyboard.

"Hehe, what you said is what you said." Qiongyu laughed twice in words, and after not knowing what to say, he expressed two nonsense words in words.

"The full moon is big. According to Tianxing Publishing House, they want to print more in the second batch of sales. There are too many bookstores urging books. I don't know if the full moon is big. What's your opinion?" Immediately afterwards, Qiongyu asked again Knock Road.

"Duoyin, Tianxing Publishing House saw the sweetness and wanted to print and sell it immediately. They want to strike while the iron is hot and stop implementing hunger marketing. No, there are good and bad things to do like this." After reading the news sent by Qiongyu, Lin Feng thought Calculated.

"No need for the time being. After the 80 printed copies are sold out, I will print again in a few days. The longer the time, the more fragrant the wine. The principle of wine making is not only for wine making." road.Hunger marketing, Lin Feng did it when he was selling books on Earth.

"Okay, the moon is big, I understand, I will convey your meaning to Tianxing Publishing House as soon as possible. Then, I won't bother you, goodbye." Knowing Lin Feng's opinion, Qiongyu was very straightforward I went to communicate with the people from Tianxing Publishing House.

……

……

Because of Lin Feng's decision to delay printing, a series of situations like this appeared in the market.

"Excuse me, do you have any books of "Seven Weapons Series" in your store? Give me two regular editions."

"Sorry, it was sold out yesterday afternoon, and today the publishing house has some problems, and it hasn't shipped yet, why don't you look at other things."

"Forget it, let's look back. I've gone to three large bookstores and there's nothing there. Well, I'd better go to another city to buy it."

……

"Don't you know how to buy it when it's sold out? You're stupid if you don't make money if you have money!" A man shouted to the manager of a certain bookstore.I ran to seven bookstores, and they all answered with the same answer, which made people feel so embarrassing.

"Sir, I'm sorry, we really want to buy. After all, we also want to make money, but for some reason, Tianxing Publishing House didn't reprint it at all. It is understood that we will have to wait a few days." The manager said. The staff patiently explained.The meaning is very clear, we are not stupid, we also want to make money in your pocket, there is a reason why we do not make money.

"Oh, forget it, I'll change another store." The man shook his head, ready to leave.

"Sir, please stay. As far as I know, the two books of the "Seven Weapons Series" in major bookstores in the market have been sold out. Recently, no matter which bookstore you are in, it is impossible to buy two books. So I advise you not to waste your efforts in vain, and the books will be on the shelves again in a few days."

"Ah, it's all gone?" the man was taken aback.It showed his inner thoughts, it was extremely unbelievable that in just a few days, the 80 regular and as many deluxe editions as he wanted were gone.

"Why don't you leave a phone call and I'll notify you when the book arrives." The manager asked with a smile.The service is very attentive, for the little money in the pocket of the customer.

"That's the only way to go, thank you!" The man nodded and said.

……

Due to the influence of various factors, owning the physical book of "Seven Weapons" and reading the seven weapons seems to have become a fashion.

On the morning of August 80th, around ten o'clock, Lin Feng, who was resting in the hotel, received Qiongyu's ee message again. According to the statistics of Tianxing Publishing House, all the [-] copies printed for the first time have been sold out, and the accounts are being counted intensively. Daily money is available in the account.

Lin Feng, who received the money and was about to arrive in the account, didn't react much, and the impact of the numbers is sometimes not strong.

After silently calculating some things, Lin Feng gave Qiongyu a time to tell Tianxing Publishing House that hunger marketing should be appropriate. On August [-]th, the reprinted books can be distributed to bookstores all over the country.Enough is enough, this is the judgment skill that must be possessed in this society.

On August [-]th, the third phase of the first rematch of Empire Good Productions was held as scheduled, and a rich music feast was presented to many people, but it was just so rich that people couldn't help but touch their chopsticks without stopping the dishes. Appear.

It was successful but not amazing.

Every show and issue of Empire Good Production is the object of people's attention and discussion. After all, compared with text, audio-visual is a way that people are more willing to accept.

The August [-] issue of Empire Good Productions shifted the focus of people's attention a lot. Naturally, the discussion about "Seven Weapons" also decreased a lot. It's just that the topic will not end if the matter is not over. Fleeting, the tenth is coming in a blink of an eye.

The readers who got the news in advance and were waiting were very anxious.There is another category of people who are waiting for the book—scalpers, whether they can get the book or not, and how much they get is all money. Can you wait in line without rushing?As long as you get the book, you can sell it at an increased price when it is sold out again. As long as the increase is not too outrageous, within the scope allowed by the law, you can make a lot of money.

At ten o'clock in the morning on the [-]th, major bookstores started selling the normal version of "Seven Weapons" again.

Sales is not a problem, the problem is that the place is too small, too many people, too many sales, too little billing data...

There are too many bookstores, and the sales are too happy, causing too many small problems. It is very troublesome to deal with these problems, but they are painful and happy.

The sales problem that publishing houses and bookstores have been worried about is not a problem for Lin Feng.

Tianxing's sales planning department, while absorbing Lin Feng's opinions, also mobilized their own brains. When the sales were delayed, the printing volume was changed, and the supply was continuous. The money that can always be earned will never be missed, so the tragedy of the scalpers is naturally conceivable.A room full of books, still the same books, bought back at the normal price, but sold at a lower price, and suffered a huge loss.The stalls are sold at normal prices, don't be kidding, in this way, the law does not care about urban management.

Regardless of some people's tragedies, most people are comedies. Those who need books can buy them, and those who want to make money can earn them.

Order is in the interest of the majority.

　six thousand.

　　Don't talk much.

　　Happy National Day everyone!
