Chinese Entertainment's Shining Star
Chapter 20 20. Tap Water
If the first day's preface was just a brief description and warm-up of "Ghost Blows Out the Light", then with the start of the official content of the newspaper serialization on the second day, the charm of this novel began to gradually reveal itself to readers.
The ancient and mysterious Great Snow Mountain, the seemingly charming but dangerous fire beetle, and the treacherous and mysterious Nine-story Demon Tower undoubtedly touched the hearts of readers. Reading the article, readers seemed to be in such a dangerous situation, and their hearts were also up and down with the life and death of the protagonist.
However, if it was just such suspense and horror, readers would probably get tired of reading, but the author seemed to have caught the readers' hearts, and always inserted a touch of warm and relaxed laughter in this tense plot, such as the Shandong accent of the second squad leader, Wang Pangzi's big white buttocks, and even the broken pot that Hu Bayi used to fool the soldiers. Sometimes readers stopped to think about it, and they couldn't help but admire the author's arrangement of the plot.
In the future, an effect called "tap water" will gradually unfold because of "Ghost Blows Out the Light".
"Why are you so interested in Feng Shui books recently? Although we are in real estate, you don't need to learn these, right?" A person looked at his colleague holding a Feng Shui book and laughed and teased.
As a result, the colleague put down the book and asked directly: "Do you know what the sixteen-character Yin-Yang Feng Shui secret is?"
"What?" The person being asked was a little dumbfounded.
"Then do you know what the sixteen characters of the sixteen-character Yin-Yang Feng Shui secret are?" the person continued to ask.
"I don't know." The person being asked shook his head subconsciously.
"Tsk, you don't know this, I tell you, the sixteen characters are heaven, earth, people, ghosts and gods, Buddha, demons, animals, terror, escaping things, turning into Yin and Yang, and the last word is empty, forget it, I guess you don't understand these, then do you know the Kangba Kunlun Unfrozen Spring, do you know the Kunlun Secret Realm, do you know the Nine-story Demon Tower, the Fire Ladybug, and the King Salamander?"
The person who said it looked proud, obviously proud of knowing more than the other party.
"Where did you learn all this? From this book?" The person being asked pointed at the Feng Shui in the other person's hand in disbelief, feeling that his worldview had been refreshed. How come Feng Shui has become a novel story these days? Is it necessary to be so entertaining and educational?
"Bullshit, I learned all that from reading Ghost Blows Out the Light."
"What Ghost Blows Out the Light?"
"You can read it yourself." As he said this, the man handed the newspaper he had accumulated to the other person, and soon the newspaper spread throughout the small office, until no one knew who collected it in the end, and it never returned to the hands of the original person.
Of course, despite the rave reviews in private, this novel is not very attractive to women, especially young women. For most of them, beautiful and sunny love is what they like, and the ghost stories in Ghost Blows Out the Light will probably scare a person to sleep at night.
In addition, the update of Ghost Blows Out the Light has also become a topic of complaint among readers.
"I don't know which wicked editor arranged the layout. Every time when it comes to the critical moment, it will definitely be gone. You have to wait until the next day to see the follow-up. Imagine the feeling of being scratched by a cat on that day. Don't mention how disgusting it is." The message of a forum user was agreed by many people.
But if the editor of Yanshan Wenbao heard this, he would definitely complain, because although the layout was done in the name of this editor, in fact, every manuscript was personally reviewed and segmented by Deputy Editor-in-Chief Liu Yuan.
Of course, Liu Yuan did this because he was instructed by Nie Wei. When he heard Nie Wei's suggestion, the editor felt his eyes brightened.
Even the best? What you can't get is the best.
This is the same reason why TV dramas always put the climax plot in the next episode. After thinking about this, Liu Yuan naturally understood what to do, which led to the moment that many readers complained about now.
Every day, the complaint hotline of Yanshan Wenbao receives similar calls, and the number is increasing day by day. However, Liu Yuan does not feel a headache, but becomes more and more excited, because it also means that the readers of "Ghost Blowing Light" are constantly increasing. Similarly, more and more people read newspapers.
The most intuitive reaction is the sales of newspapers.
The increase in subscriptions on the first day really made Liu Yuan excited for a long time. Although the final statistics showed that it only increased by 3,500 copies, it is not a large proportion for a newspaper with a circulation of 100,000, but it is an increase.
You must know that since the emergence of online media in the past few years, the sales of paper newspapers have been declining again and again. In the absence of major news, it is extremely difficult to increase subscriptions. Recently, it is a flat period, but Yanshan Wenbao has achieved subscription increases under such a flat period. That is an achievement!
And every day afterwards, Liu Yuan's mood was like a rocket, rising instantly.
On the second day, the number of subscriptions increased to 6,000, and on the third day, it increased to 11,000. By the seventh day, the newspaper's additional circulation had reached 30,000 on the original basis, which even shocked the Yanshan Wenhua Group headquarters.
What could make a newspaper increase its circulation by 30% in a week?
The result came out soon, and it was the last article serialized in the newspaper, Ghost Blows Out the Light!!!
As the biggest contributor to signing "Ghost Blows Out the Light", Liu Yuan was naturally publicly praised by the headquarters. The generous bonus was secondary. The key was that the senior management privately promised that if he could maintain this momentum, the position of editor-in-chief of the editorial department next year would be waiting for him.
This is absolutely a pie in the sky for Liu Yuan, who has been looking forward to another level.
Now he is so grateful to Nie Wei and Zhou Aiguo. Without Zhou Aiguo's call, he would not have been able to get Ghost Blows Out the Light. What's more important is Nie Wei. It was his magical novel that made him achieve his current glory step by step.
But soon, one thing made Liu Yuan worried.
The contract he signed with Nie Wei was only for the publication rights of the first part of Ghost Blows Out the Light, The Ancient City of Jingjue. The number of words in The Ancient City of Jingjue is 250,000, which seems to be a lot, but at the current serialization speed of more than 10,000 words a day, the editorial department will have nothing to publish in more than ten days.
Thinking about the Ghost Blows Out the Light readers hidden behind the more than 30,000 newspapers and periodicals now, Liu Yuan felt a little numb on his scalp. It can be said that these people's current enthusiasm for newspapers is completely caused by Ghost Blows Out the Light. If Ghost Blows Out the Light is gone, then perhaps these increased subscriptions will instantly fall back.
By then, the position of editor-in-chief will obviously be gone.
"No, I must contact Nie Wei as soon as possible and sign his next story!" Liu Yuan thought of this and made up his mind to find Nie Wei immediately.
(Thanks to the two classmates who opposed to smashing and life 00009 for the reward.)
