14.Fourth update (Thanks to SL11111 for the 500 point reward)
"What should I say about this kind of thing? Well, senior brother, let's talk about something happy."
Gu Cheng shook his head. Outsiders didn't understand the twists and turns here, and it was very troublesome to explain. It was best not to talk about it. He was already trying his best to find ways to reduce the impact of this matter.
It doesn't matter to me, after all, she has become a father, but Shangluoke is still a lady who got married before marriage, and talking too much is not good for her reputation.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Yu Qi didn't have much interest in gossiping. It was obvious that Gu Cheng didn't want to talk about this matter, so he changed the topic sensibly.
"By the way, the copybooks will be on the market tomorrow, because all the schools on summer vacation will start tomorrow. I will always pay attention to the sales situation to share with you, but don't worry, we have already got through to the teachers in many schools
, and they all agreed to help promote the book in their classes.”
Speaking of this, Yu Qi's expression was very rich. Originally, the publisher just recommended it to the teachers as a routine matter, but as soon as the copybook came into the hands of the teacher, he opened it and saw the content inside, and immediately changed his mind about perfunctory things.
In the opinion of the teachers, such beautiful prose should be published in textbooks. It would be overkill to make copybooks. People who can become Chinese teachers have some artistic plots and a hobby for literature. Read all the articles.
After finishing it, I wanted to pat my chest and promise Yu Qi that I would vigorously promote this copybook, not for commission, but just to let students learn more beautiful and meaningful articles, which is already achieved.
Yu Qi has been in this industry for several years. Every time he asked teachers to help promote books, the other party's attitude was very disdainful. In the end, he found the principal and superiors and arranged a meeting to make the teachers reluctant.
Unwilling to help.
This is the first time I have seen something like Gu Cheng’s copybook.
After listening to Yu Qi's story, Gu Cheng smiled and said nothing. This was also the main reason why he chose to use prose as the content of his copybook. After all, he had experienced the test of his previous life, and anyone with a discerning eye would be able to spot the excellence of these articles.
, not to mention the teachers who work with the text all year round.
Moreover, he has his own intention in choosing these articles. The two books currently published and prepared by the publishing house are mystery novels. As a loyal lover, he is very aware of the status of the circle of literati, and there are real circles of writers.
There is indeed a chain of contempt. Serious literature is higher than popular literature. Gu Cheng is famous for his mystery novels, and his status in the entire circle is relatively underground.
Through these essays, writers in the circle can be impressed by his writing style and appropriately improve his status, which will be of great help in future prize competitions.
Because of this premise, the entire publishing house is extremely optimistic about the sales performance of the copybook, and feels that it will definitely exceed the sales performance of Gu Cheng's previous book.
After chatting for a while, Yu Qi also said goodbye in due time. He also wanted to distribute these signed copybooks to various bookstores in proportion and distribute them to various sales channels, so that no matter which channel they purchased the copybooks, the book fans would
, you will all have the opportunity to get signed signatures.
After sending Yu Qi away, Gu Cheng continued to return to his study and browsed the information on the forum, hoping to see comments on his works.
Although Orient Express has been on sale for some time, it is still the number one hot topic on the forum. Basically, everyone has bought the book and has almost finished reading it based on time. They have started to share this book with netizens.
.
Of course, they don't know what Amway means.
Others shared their thoughts after reading the book in the post, and discussed the plot and writing techniques of the book with netizens they had never met.
Gu Cheng briefly browsed through it, and found that almost every ten posts, three discussed Orient Express, which also contained information about the film and television rights being traded away. Kia Film and Television Company had already started filming. Everyone's general attitude towards this matter was
Very much looking forward to it.
For Gu Cheng, these are all potential moviegoers. Although the film and television rights have been sold and the subsequent income has nothing to do with him, if the effect of this adaptation is outstanding, it will greatly benefit the next copyright sales.
.
Most of the people who have read this book have become familiar with it and promoted it to everyone they know. Some people are curious and will buy a copy to read, and then join the ranks. According to the statistics of the publishing house, these few
The sales momentum in the past few weeks has changed from a decline to a slight increase. According to their predictions, Dongfang's sales potential has not been exhausted.
If this momentum continues, sales will rebound once the film is released in the East. The publisher's reserves are no longer enough, and the upper management has begun to discuss whether to print more copies.
This is first-class good news for Gu Cheng. The more he sells, the greater his reputation will be, the higher his income will be, and the better his daughter's life will be in the future.
Thinking of this, his happy eyes narrowed and his teeth were exposed.
After reading all the posts praising him on the Internet, Gu Cheng also had a bad taste. He applied for a new account through the forum, then found the most popular post and commented below.
"I just finished reading the book "The East", and it feels like it's just an ordinary mystery novel. I really don't know why so many people like it."
After saying that, I was like a fox who had stolen a chicken. I was so happy that I refreshed the page over and over again to see if anyone responded.
Now is the time when the Internet has just emerged. This thing is still unfamiliar to many people. There are still very few people who can afford a computer at home. According to statistics at the beginning of the year, the number of Internet users has just reached about five million.
The development of time and space in previous lives was much slower.
Most netizens don't have many places to go for entertainment when surfing the Internet, so several well-known large forums have become the main places these people often visit.
Gu Cheng hasn't refreshed it a few times, but his comments have already been commented on.
"Are you blind? I really don't know what you are thinking. The book Dongfang is already the best mystery novel in the past 20 to 30 years. I think you are deliberately causing trouble and misleading everyone. It is really deplorable."
"Alas, mystery novels have been brought to a standstill because of people like you who don't have the level of appreciation. As a result, the likes of us can only read foreign novels."
Chapter completed!
