Chapter 104 News and Online Pre-sale (2/3)
After busy with Xixi's birthday, Yang Yi finally got free and could start preparing his new book.
Qiangzi, who received a positive response, was so excited that he burst into tears. He couldn't wait to apply to the bosses.
Since Yang Yi changed the subject and did not know what the content was, the editorial department of Qiyue decided to promote it on a small scale first - for example, put an advertisement on the pages of the books "Soldier Assault" and "Bright Sword".
"On July 20th, Yang Yi returns with her new book "Yu Zui" and spend this hot summer vacation with you!"
Is Yang Yi's new book coming?
Fans of the two books have long been looking forward to it. After the completion of "Bright Sword", they have been asking about the news about the new book, but this has disappointed them again and again. A week later, the book review area has gradually become deserted, and the grand occasion that was discussed in full swing was nowhere to be found.
But loyal fans like Mu Yucheng are still unwilling to leave. They come back every day to sign up to see if Yang Yi has opened a new book.
Finally, they waited for the news!
Suddenly, the book review sections of "Bright Sword" and "Soldier Assault" became lively again. After some book fans rushed to tell each other, many fans gathered back to discuss Yang Yi's new book.
"Yu Zui? The title of this book sounds strange. And I don't even give you an introduction. Does Dada Yang still want to write military literature?"
"It should be! Yang Yi doesn't write about military literature, what else can he write?"
"But this name does not look like the title of military literature. Yu Zui means the remaining sins and the sins left behind, and it looks very dark."
"Come on, "Bright Sword" doesn't look like military literature. I thought it was a martial arts novel at first, haha!"
"That's true. It's hard for ordinary people to understand Yang Da's brain circuit."
"I'm looking forward to it anyway!"
“Looking forward +1!”
“Expect +10076!”
Mu Yucheng secretly saw the news when he was bored at work. When he was itchy, he ran to the bathroom, sat on the toilet, and gave a long comment.
"Dad Yang, no matter what you are, please treat the protagonist well in the new book?
Xu Sanduo in "Soldier Assault" fell off the bridge at the beginning. We all thought he was going to die. Fortunately, although he broke his leg in the end, he was still alive.
But in "Bright Sword", Li Yunlong is such a good person! In the end, you actually let him die? It made us readers heartbroken! Should we be so heartbroken?
Please, Da Da Yang, no matter what novel you write, I will support you, but really, please treat your protagonist well and treat your readers well!"
Mu Yucheng's book reviews are often mentioned at the same time. He is still quite famous in the circle of book fans, and his posts were immediately pushed up by many people.
"Praise Lao Mu and beg Yang Da to not abuse the protagonist, nor do you abuse the heroine, and don't even abuse the supporting role, okay? "Bright Sword" really made me cry dry."
“+1!”
“+10076!”
...
The copyright department of Qiyue has actually been in contact with Sahara Publishing House and got the release time and news of the two physical books "Soldier Assault" and "Bright Sword". Taking advantage of the popularity of the moment, they also arranged promotions.
The copyright department has no less power than the editorial department, and it is directly put on the top of the homepage to announce: "Presale of physical books for "Soldier Assault" and "Bright Sword"".
With overtime typography and review by editors of Sahara Publishing House, the two books have been delivered to the printing factory for printing. It is expected to be officially released on August 1st!
However, it is a bit difficult to distribute offline channels. After all, Sahara has little energy, so it is unlikely to break the alliance of some large publishing houses. This is also why Deputy Manager Huang asked Yang Yi to consider it clearly at the beginning!
At present, Sahara has only obtained sales channels for large state-owned bookstores and some small bookstores, and is widely distributed and has more sales chain bookstores such as "Ai Read", "Book Bar", and "Shuxiang Pavilion" but they do not look down on the books of the small publisher of Sahara, let alone online literature!
Of course, the Sahara's efforts are not in vain. After all, state-owned bookstores are also the largest chain bookstores in China. They are available in various cities, and this channel is the largest! But the problem is that because state-owned bookstores are state-owned, the prices of books they sell are often 10% more expensive than other channels, which also leads many readers to choose chain bookstores such as "Love Reading", "Book Bar" and "Shuxiang Pavilion".
But the advertisement that Qiyu read made readers feel fresh.
"Presale? What does it mean?"
"Didn't it mean that the offline bookstore will be on August 1st? Why is there a pre-sale statement?"
After clicking on this advertisement, Qiyue announced two sales channels provided by Sahara Publishing House. The first one is of course to go to a large state-owned bookstore or the bookstore on the following list to buy it.
The second one is the so-called pre-sale!
The book fans who have been looking forward to buying two physical books are already planning to grit their teeth and go to a state-owned bookstore to buy books with the mentality of not having to pay any more!
But now, the pre-sale channel has given them new hope!
Can you buy it online, and it's so cheap?
And the shipping time for online pre-sales is two days earlier?
True or fake?
If it weren't for the official advertisement, book fans would have thought they had been cheated!
But the copyright association certified label hanging on the Sahara online bookstore will not lie! Book fans began to study it with curiosity.
After Yang Yi's suggestion, Fu Jun beautified the web interface of Sahara Online Bookstore, making it more humane, and simplified the process of customer registration and book purchase.
I used to buy books, so I had to send money to the online bookstore by registering a mail, and then inform the bookstore by phone which books to buy, and then confirm again and again...
After seeing this advertisement, Mu Yucheng enthusiastically decided to become the first group of crab eaters!
Anyway, official advertisements are unlikely to lie to others. Even if they lie to you, Mu Yucheng feels that his losses will not be too great. And if the operation is really successful, Mu Yucheng might receive books earlier than book fans who buy them in offline bookstores!
Mu Yucheng clicked in with great enthusiasm. He found that if you enter the website in advance, you can browse, select, or even add the book you want to buy into the shopping cart.
Only when placing an order, you need to register or log in with your existing account, and then improve your personal information, delivery address and payment account information.
But Mu Yucheng noticed that these information can be used again after filling in once, and the cumbersome and repeated registration process can be continued next time, reducing the cumbersome and repeated registration process!
"Awesome!" Mu Yucheng himself is an IT player, and he quickly realized the convenience of this website.
Of course, payment is still a bit troublesome, so Mu Yucheng went to the bank specially.
Online payment in this world has not been developed yet, and it does not have logistics support for cash on delivery. Sahara Online Bookstore currently collects payments through transfer and remittance. After placing an order, Sahara Online Bookstore will match the money received, and the order confirmed to be completed will be confirmed.
Mu Yucheng took screenshots of all the processes, covered up his personal information, and posted a post in the book review area of the two books.
"I highly recommend online purchases. Lao Mu, I'm already waiting for two books to be delivered to my home! The website is expected to be delivered on July 31st, and it's fast in Yangcheng, haha!"
This pride has made Mu Yucheng condemn by many book fans, but under his call, more people flocked to the Sahara online bookstore.
More people eat crabs!
...
However, there is no other news on the Internet!
Tiejun.com, which has been paying attention to the situation here, immediately took action. Almost the next day, Tiejun.com also posted an announcement announcing that one of their master writers, "Scar Scars", will upload a new book on July 20, and will also start signing activities in bookstores in eight major cities across the country starting on August 1, and ask for names to compete with Yang Yi's "Yu Zui" and the two physical books published!
"Scar Scar" is an old military writer, and it is the founder of the Bingwang type novel. The three novels he completed in the past have achieved very good results. Even physical books have also sold very well. It is said that the physical sales volume of his third completed novel is almost nearly 10 million. This is also the sales record of military literary works published on Tiejun Online!
Obviously, "Scar-Booning Scar" is a powerful enemy that cannot be underestimated, and Yang Yi's fans are also worried about Yang Yi.
But after seeing the provocation of Tiejun.com, Qi Yue was magically unresponsive. No, it should be said that the people in the editorial department were laughing strangely: "This is interesting!"
Chapter completed!
