Frankly speaking, without the scolding war in newspapers, "Hush, Little Secret" could still be a big hit thanks to the quality of its content and suspenseful marketing, but it wouldn't be as popular as it is now.
The first book in the series has been on the market for less than half a year and has already sold more than two million copies nationwide. The final sales volume of "Hush, Little Secret" is far more than that. The sales cycle of such a popular science book is very long.
of.
But when "Hush, Little Secret" was scolded, it was the publishing department that was under pressure, and it was Zou Weijun, the publishing mastermind. Parents frantically complained to the education department. Editor Wan now wants "Teen Idol" to compete with "Hush, Little Secret"
The more she is scolded, the more popular she becomes. Doesn't it mean that Wen Ying has to bear all the pressure of being scolded?
Wen Ying is a high school girl, why should she be scolded?
The novel she wrote was an inspirational youth novel, and it did not involve pornography or violence. No one would be scolded, but Wen Ying would not be able to get away with it.
The pressure that adults may not be able to bear must be placed on Wen Ying, a minor. This is not Zou Weijun's promotional strategy for "Youth Idol"!
Editor Wan is indeed Editor Wan, he actually had the nerve to come up with such an idea.
"You mean you want me to push the author out and get scolded, while I hide behind my back and count the money while laughing?"
The disgust in Zou Weijun's eyes was undisguised, and he didn't want to talk to Editor Wan at all.
Editor Wan didn’t expect that he was flattering him all the time, “Xiao Zou, what I meant was——”
What is it? Zou Weijun doesn't want to hear it.
Editor Wan tried his best to push back the hair around the Mediterranean Sea, and ran to the corridor to call Song Foxiang with a sad face.
"Old Song, what you're talking about doesn't work. Xiao Zou loves this author very much. If you don't agree with my suggestion, I can't help you. But why are you so concerned about Xiao Zou? Last time you -"
I was beaten at the door of my work last time. Is the scar healed and the pain forgotten?
On the phone, Song Foxiang jumped on the spot: "Don't talk nonsense, I'm not paying attention to Xiao Zou!"
Editor Wan obviously didn't believe it.
Song Foxiang could only tell the truth.
"I'm not concerned about Xiao Zou, I'm concerned about the new project planned by Xiao Zou. That fake foreigner Zhao Dong stepped on my face and entered the cultural circle of Rongcheng. Didn't his "Zhao Family Letters" be published by Xiao Zou?
, Xiao Zou ignored him at all, and he found a publishing house in Lu Province again. The new project in Xiao Zou’s hands collided with Zhao Dong’s autobiography!”
Originally it wasn't that big of a deal.
What a coincidence, the publishing house Zhao Dong found belongs to the Lu Province Publishing Group together with "Eige".
"Eige" wants to use the author signed by Xiao Zou, which is to cause trouble for Xiao Zou. After rounding off, in fact, in the end, "Zhao Family Letter" will have to compete with "Teenage Idol".
The sales volume of "Teenage Idol" is the best compared to "Letter from the Zhao Family", which makes Zhao Dong so angry!
Song Foxiang's dislike of Zhao Dong has surpassed Xie Jinghu's.
Xie Jinghu hurt Song Foxiang's face, and Zhao Dong hurt Song Foxiang's spirit, so much so that Editor-in-Chief Song lost his sense and almost lost his mind when he mentioned Zhao Dong - he almost forgot that the "Zhao Family Letter" was
If he ghost-wrote "Letter from the Zhao Family" when other books suppressed it, wouldn't that mean he suppressed himself?
No, Editor-in-Chief Song does not admit from the bottom of his heart that "Letter from the Zhao Family" is his work.
It was a fool's errand made for money. It was water-injected pork that could not win the soul. It had nothing to do with Mr. Song!
Editor Wan was confused by this series of logical relationships in Song Foxiang.
What Lao Song said seems to make sense.
Zhao Dong approached Xiao Zou to publish "Letter from the Zhao Family", but Xiao Zou refused.
Xiao Zou fell in love with a youth novel "Youth Idol" that was serialized in a magazine.
If the sales volume of "Young Idol" exceeds that of "Letter from the Zhao Family", it really illustrates Xiao Zou's vision in book planning...
"But Old Song, that Zhao Dong is quite rich. He doesn't care how many copies of "Letter from the Zhao Family" can be sold, right? If it sells well, it will help him recover some of the cost of publishing the book. If it doesn't sell well, it doesn't matter.
Isn’t he doing his autobiography just for fame?”
In any case, Zhao Dong has achieved his goal.
Song Foxiang snorted on the phone, "You still don't have much fighting experience. What do you think is the most popular book in the country in the first half of this year?"
"Isn't it "Hush, Little Secret"?"
Editor Wan blurted out.
Song Foxiang's voice came through the phone, full of excitement: "You all know it's "Hush, Little Secret". This is the first book you think of. The market in the second half of the year has just begun. Everyone
I always only remember the number one, and the most impressive one is also the number one. Even if Zhao Dong can sell one million copies of "Zhao Family Letters", as long as "Young Idol" can beat "Zhao Family Letters", Zhao Dong will still do it
Deflated!"
The title of the picture is good.
It is a very painful lesson for a person with a picture name to let the other party fail to reap the expected fame.
Editor Wan understood this time.
"So this is your idea! But Xiao Zou doesn't listen to my suggestion, what can I do?"
——Hey, that’s not right, it’s not like he has nothing to do.
Zou Weijun wants to protect the author, but the leader may not.
Women are still too sentimental and soft-hearted. The leader must first consider whether a suggestion is in the interests of the publishing department.
If "Teen Idol" sells well, the publishing department will benefit the most!
Editor Wan spoke a few more words to Song Foxiang, hung up the phone and tiptoed into the leadership office.
"Editor Wan, do you have a work report?"
Why does this old man become more and more sinister the more he looks at me?
Editor Wan whispered his idea, "...leader, do you think it's okay? I really don't want to cause trouble, and I don't have any selfish motives. It's all for the consideration of our publishing department. Of course, I also want to sell well to Xiao Zou, but Xiao Zou
You still can’t understand my painstaking efforts.”
——Do you dare to tell Xiao Zou your hard work?
The leader chuckled: "Why didn't I realize you were so talented before? You can say such things so calmly. Talents like you are being wasted in the publishing industry. You should go to the entertainment industry."
If you become a manager in the entertainment industry, you can kill rival artists.
Oh, let's use our own artist to compete with the opponent, injuring the enemy by one thousand and losing eight thousand by ourselves.
Neither rival artists nor our own artists are winners, only the company is the winner.
Editor Wan felt that the leader was not praising him, so he blushed and defended: "Just pretend that I didn't say anything. I went out to do something."
The leader knocked on the table.
"……wait."
Editor Wan's eyes lit up. Sure enough, he heard the leader ask him: "How sure are you that you will get away with it? If Xiao Zou finds out, I won't help you take the blame. Also, the author of "Young Idol"
He is very young and is a potential author worthy of our praise in the future. You can do publicity, but you can't hurt the author's foundation. In the end, the gain outweighs the loss. But don't blame me for sending you to Africa to explore the publishing market."
Where is the publishing market in Africa?
Editor Wan heard it and the leader asked him to take care of things. If he did well, he would not necessarily be rewarded, but if he failed, there would definitely be punishment.
