On April 10, Buyehou's new book "Maliciousness" was officially published.

As the president of Shinhwa Publishing House, Lin Zhibai looked at his novels from a purely capital perspective for the first time——

"Huaxin Bookstore has 300,000 volumes."

"Longxiang Bookstore has 400,000 volumes."

"Bafang Bookstore has 500,000 volumes."

"500,000 volumes from Elegant Publishing House."

"A million volumes in the Pinnacle Bookstore."

"Time Bookstore has one million volumes."

"EMI Bookstore..."

Lin Zhibai sat on the president's chair with a bossy face, with his feet directly on the table, looking at the statistics of the publishing department.

Bu Yehou's "Maliciousness" was first printed with 10 million copies, and it has already been digested by major bookstores with 5 million copies.

"Usually speaking, the number of initial prints is determined by the writer's basic plate, and now Buyehou is in the limelight, so as long as the author of the work has the words "Buyehou" written in the column, then no matter what he writes, it will be aimed at him. It is definitely no problem to guarantee a minimum sales volume of 5 million, and the editors in the reasoning department are very optimistic about the quality of the work of "Maliciousness", so the first printing directly publishes 10 million copies, and it should be sold out in the future. of……"

The director of the publishing department said respectfully.

He didn't care about the cynical attitude of the president.

Recently, it is said that the president of the company called the representative of Kunpeng during a meeting.

On the phone, he simply said "give me some face", and the new president asked Mr. Buyehou, who the major publishing houses in Qinzhou were desperately trying to win over, to join Mythology Publishing House——

The new president has such a big face!

And because of Bu Yehou's fame in the publishing industry, the entire Mythology Publishing House rejoiced!

Even Lin Zhibai, the young and new president who has just arrived, has begun to gain a certain prestige in the Shinhwa Publishing House!

A prestigious president is naturally qualified to pose as a big boss.

Besides, the new president is said to be the grandson of the chairman of the group, so it's strange that this kind of chaebol's son is not arrogant.

"The first ten million copies were printed."

Lin Zhibai asked: "What level is this in the novel circle?"

"top ten!"

The director of the publishing department said without hesitation: "The market appeal of Bu Yehou's novels can now be ranked in the top ten!"

top ten?

Lin Zhibai thought he heard it wrong, "I... the guy I dug out is so good?" Is my writer's vest already so good?

"how to say."

The director of the publishing department laughed and said, "The situation of Bu Yehou is different from other great writers."

Not the same?

Lin Zhibai said thoughtfully, "Because of the screenwriter's status?"

The head of the publishing department nodded, "If you only compare the number of fans, the number of fans of Wuyehou is actually not enough compared to other writers who rank in the top ten in terms of market appeal, but Wuyehou's status as a screenwriter is too successful. The base of TV drama fans, countless fans who like his TV dramas will also buy the novels written by Bu Yehou."

Lin Zhibai laughed.

So this is ah.

In this way, Buyehou can be regarded as a wonderful flower in the novel world.

After all, strictly speaking, Bu Yehou has only written three novels.

A Collection of Short Stories by Bu Ye Hou.

"Worry Relief Grocery Store".

"secret".

After debuting for so long and only writing three books, the book fan base is naturally not that huge.

But Bu Yehou's appeal in the novel market can be ranked in the top ten, and that must be due to his status as a screenwriter.

There was "Hurricane" before.

There is "Never Expected".

Then came Conquer.

Recently, there is a super dog blood drama "The Temptation of Going Home".

The ratings of the three TV dramas have exploded, and even the mini-series has countless topics, so a large number of drama fans will buy into the novels of Bu Ye Hou.

But can this group of people be considered book lovers?

It is more appropriate to be classified as a drama fan.

It's just that Mythology Publishing House doesn't care whether those who buy Buyehou's novels are here for the TV series of Buyehou, or for the authorship of Buyehou's novels.

Anyway, as long as you are willing to spend money on books!

It's like Lin Zhibai asked her sister to find those celebrities to write her autobiography.

Those celebrities are not writers, so they certainly don't have book fans, but that doesn't prevent their books from selling, because fans will pay for it.

"The nature is somewhat similar." Lin Zhibai muttered.

"What did you say?" The director of the publishing department didn't hear clearly.

Lin Zhibai smiled, "It's nothing, your phone seems to be ringing."

"It's from the bookstore."

The director of the publishing house took a look at the incoming call, but didn't go out, and answered it directly in front of Lin Zhibai.

"Your Huaxin Bookstore wants to order "Maliciousness"?"

"yes!"

"How many volumes to order?"

"500,000 volumes!"

"How many!?"

The director of the publishing house suddenly mentioned the voice, and his expression seemed a little shocked.

After several confirmations, she hung up the phone, and she said anxiously, "President, I have something to do, over there at Huaxin Bookstore..."

The voice fell.

The phone rang again.

She connects again.

"What? Do you want to order more? Add 300,000 volumes?"

After hanging up the phone for the second time, the head of the publishing department was so excited that he couldn't help it.

"You go to work."

Lin Zhibai waved his hand.

"OK!"

The director of the publishing department was very excited and bowed to leave, but he couldn't help but say something before going out.

"Buyehou's new book is even more popular than we expected, it's all thanks to you, President!"

Lin Zhibai waved again.

Ignore your rainbow farts.

Lin Zhibai was thinking about Buyehou's wonderful market appeal.

Most of the people who buy Bu Yehou's novels are drama fans, because there are not many novels, so the plate of book fans is not too big at present.

This shows that Bu Yehou still has a large number of book fans to fight for.

"Looks like I need to write more novels."

It just so happened that Lin Zhibai still had a novel that was about to be completed, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

Shinhwa Entertainment is filming the TV series "Legend of the Condor Heroes", and Lin Zhibai plans to release a novel when the show airs.

At that time, novels and TV dramas will work together!

It should be able to add a lot of book fans to Bu Yehou!

But it's no wonder that the major publishing houses are desperately trying to win over writers of Bu Yehou's level.

A writer like Bu Yehou, who ranks among the top ten in the market appeal of the Qinzhou writer circle, is simply a money printing machine for the publishing house!

For example, the book "Maliciousness".

The official price of Mythology Publishing House is 20 yuan a copy.

With an initial printing of 10 million copies, it is estimated that there will be no pressure to sell out this month.

Then the book "Maliciousness" can create a total market value of about 200 million!

Of course, the 200 million yuan is just the market value, after deducting the printing cost, the share of writers who work around the clock, and the more the company makes money, the more taxes it pays.

This book from Mythology Publishing House.

Perhaps in the end, he will be able to earn close to 100 million yuan from the book Never Night Hou?

Damn!

Isn't this a money printing machine?

Damn capitalists, my novels made them so much money, but they only gave me so much?

No wonder JK Rowling earned tens of billions in her previous life.

I am afraid that the commercial value created by the Harry Potter series has been immeasurable, and only the capital knows how much they have earned!

If the novel sells well, you can really do whatever you want!

It's no wonder that I dug it all night, and immediately gained a foothold in the company.

No matter how Wang Zi was dealt with, Luoda Bailey and Ren Jiachun didn't fart.

Even the "software development" project, the group of people also accepted it while putting aside their own ties.

Dare to know how much the commercial value of Dumen Qingbuyehou is.

Tut tut.

On the contrary, Lin Zhibai somewhat underestimated his status as "Marquis of Night" in the novel world.

fine.

Now I am capital myself!

...

Nathan Press.

At this moment, the senior executives of Nathan Publishing House all looked a little ugly.

Bu Yehou was poached by Mythology Publishing House, and the new book has been published by Mythology Publisher!

"I heard that "Maliciousness" was first printed with 10 million copies!"

"Bu Yehou's TV series brought him too many fans."

"The number of fans of these dramas is greater than the number of fans of his books, and many of them are willing to pay for his novels."

"Have you watched "Maliciousness" at the Reasoning Department?"

"How's the evaluation?"

"I'll ask someone from the Reasoning Department."

The leader speaks.

The editor-in-chief of the reasoning department of Nathan Press soon came to the conference room.

"I'm currently reading the novel "Maliciousness", and I've already read half of it. At present, I feel that Bu Yehou's reasoning level is good or bad. It's probably the level of a second-rate reasoning writer..."

The editor-in-chief of the reasoning department said.

This news made the faces of several senior executives of Nathan Publishing House look better.

"That is to say, the initial printing of "Maliciousness" is 10 million copies, and the market may not be able to digest it. Shinhwa is a bit too optimistic about the sales prospects of Bu Yehou's novel." The editor-in-chief of Nathan Publishing House said.

The reasoning editor nodded.

"Bu Yehou is good at suspense, and reasoning is not his best. In other words, although his previous works have reasoning elements, but in fact, the proportion is very small, so this time he wrote pure reasoning. The level of aspects is a bit behind..."

at this time.

The deputy editor-in-chief of the reasoning department ran over in a hurry, holding a copy of "Maliciousness" bought in the morning, and looked a little flustered.

"Something happened, something happened!"

"What does it look like in a panic?" Several senior executives of Nathan Publishing House were unhappy: "What happened?"

"This novel..."

The deputy editor-in-chief held up the "Maliciousness" in his hand, because he was running too fast, he swallowed hard at this moment.

"Straighten your tongue!" The editor-in-chief's heart skipped a beat.

"The level of deception in this novel is indeed not particularly high, but Buyehou has created a brand-new reasoning writing method, which will definitely shock Qin Zhou's reasoning world!"

"It's not that exaggerated, isn't it just a normal reasoning technique..."

The editor-in-chief of reasoning has just judged that "Maliciousness" is the level of a second-rate reasoning novel.

Unexpectedly, the deputy editor-in-chief came and sang against him.

"Where did you see it?"

"Here."

"You read further, and you will understand after reading a few more chapters!"

"Um?"

The reasoning editor was taken aback for a moment, then quickly turned the page.

Flipping and flipping, his movements became stiff, and his face was filled with disbelief.

"What's wrong? Talk!"

Several big leaders of Nathan Publishing House were a little nervous.

The reasoning editor raised his head and glanced at the big leaders with a heavy heart.

"Bu Yehou's "Maliciousness" should become a masterpiece recorded in the history of mystery novels. He used an unprecedented writing technique to play with all readers. No one would think of it until the end. The truth turned out to be..."

this day!

A narrative trick was born!
