At the same time, Glory Bookstore in Mong Kok, Hong Kong.
Store manager Tao Shilin was pacing back and forth in front of the door, raising his wrist from time to time to look at the time, with a sad look on his face.
In front of him, fifty or sixty girls were queuing up in front of the bookstore under the warm sun.
"Boss, when will we arrive?"
"It's still more than ten minutes until ten o'clock. The promised supply of goods is here!"
"Is this your location? Why did I hear from my friends in the 'discussion forum' that Causeway Bay is already on sale?"
"Unscrupulous boss, if you dare to lie to us, I will risk entering the police station, and I will do justice for God and destroy your store!"
"That's right, I've been waiting for almost an hour! My legs are sore from standing there. It was promised at ten o'clock, but it's almost ten o'clock, and you actually told us that the goods haven't arrived yet!"
"Unscrupulous businessman!"
"Black-hearted store manager!"
"We want to buy the tape of Qinglian Sword Fairy!"
"Give us the tape!"
The chirping sounds of a group of girls were already disturbing. Tao Shilin accidentally raised his head and looked around, and unexpectedly saw a middle-aged man standing carelessly among a group of girls, waving his hands, and kept roaring.
Bad words that destroyed the bookstore.
This old idiot fan!
Tao Shilin was so angry that his fingers trembled. This must be a spy sent by other bookstores!
but……
Even though he was a spy, Tao Shilin was helpless.
He silently glanced at a banner posted above the bookstore, which clearly read "Qinglian Jianxian's first music tape box and Hong Kong Glory Bookstore grand opening on April 8th!" and other words.
Immediately afterwards, he silently glanced at the portraits of Qinglian Sword Immortal posted on the left and right sides of the bookstore, as well as the actions of several nymphomaniac girls next to him who were eager to step forward and snatch the poster away.
"This guy from Mainland China, whose "Looking for the Qin Dynasty" was so popular, didn't write a book properly, so he went to sing instead!"
Even now, Tao Shilin still finds it a bit incredible.
It was a week ago when I received the call from the headquarters.
The headquarters requires all glory bookstores in Hong Kong to cooperate with the promotional activities of Shengshi Audio and Video, a subsidiary of China Film Group.
Because they were familiar partners, Tao Shilin didn't pay much attention and just thought it was a new film and television tape released by China Film Group to coordinate with film and television dramas. This was not uncommon in the past.
But when the staff of Shengshi Audio and Video rushed to the bookstore to arrange the promotional content, Tao Shilin was shocked to find that the target of the promotion was actually Qinglian Sword Fairy!
The current popularity of Qinglian Sword Fairy is second only to Mr. Cha Liangyong, and almost on par with modern romance novel writer Yun Hua. It is not a dream to get a remuneration of millions a year!
Such a rising star in the industry actually went to sing?
Tao Shilin's three views were destroyed in an instant.
But this is just the beginning of the nightmare!
Ever since the news of Qing Lian Jian Xian's music cassette release was announced to the public, almost every branch has been attacked by a huge number of fans of mentally retarded girls.
As long as you don't pay attention, the poster of Li Qing's portrait posted outside the door will disappear without a trace.
As soon as people walk in, the first thing they say is not to ask which episode of a certain book is available, but to ask if there is a poster of Qinglian Sword Fairy, and if there is an advance version of the tape cassette.
Please, we are a bookstore, not a stationery store, not a video store!
Fortunately, Shengshi Audio and Video also launched a huge publicity and marketing campaign for Qinglian Sword Fairy. Li Qing's portrait and Li Qing's personal profile were all posted on the street scenes of various prosperous places, so that the public could become familiar with Li Qing's profile.
Deeds.
Number one on the snail sales list.
No. 1 on the Butterfly rental list.
Author of "Looking for Qin".
The winner of the first mainland talent show "Music Star".
Queen Bao Yunyun’s favorite songwriter!
Many songs are famous at home and abroad!
Outside!
You are just an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy!
Do you want to be so brilliant?
Your age group...
You are simply a legend, okay?
That's right, with the large-scale publicity of Shengshi Audio and Video, more and more boys and girls who have watched "The Story of Qin", a modest masterpiece, worship the Qinglian Sword Fairy after seeing the real-life posters and various honorary allusions.
My mind expanded instantly, and I grew up to a high-rise building in an instant.
The children all went crazy.
The young boys are relatively rational, but they are slightly impressed by Li Qing's talents and feel that he is a role model and spiritual idol for our generation.
But the girls have completely lost their minds!
Talented, rich, and handsome, the smile on the sea is so charming that it is like a hundred thousand volts!
Where can I find such a young husband?
After buying Li Qing's portrait in major bookstores but failing to get it, they all started stealing.
The key point is that what they stole wasn't anything valuable, just a few celebrity posters. If they caught them, they could only give them a warning, which was not painful at all!
Major bookstores are having a headache because of this.
And today is the time for Qinglian Jianxian, the handsome man, to officially release the music tape box.
Early in the morning, after opening at 8 o'clock, there was a long queue outside the store!
From a few people, the number suddenly increased to fifty or sixty.
And this number is still increasing.
According to the news coming from branches in various districts, this situation is happening all over Hong Kong.
Tao Shilin has never heard the songs of Qinglian Sword Immortal, but he has read the novels of Qinglian Sword Immortal.
He is also a fan of "Xun Qin Ji".
Therefore, he always believed that these crazy fans were just a diversion from die-hard fans of the book.
After all, it was the Qinglian Sword Fairy's first music tape that borrowed the light of "Looking for the Qin", which made the scene so popular.
Tao Shilin believed in one sentence.
No one is perfect. God opens a door for you, but will inevitably close a window for you.
You have written such wonderful novels and you are so handsome. This is already something that makes people jealous. If you can sing so well, will you still let others survive?
Therefore, Tao Shilin believes that Qinglian Sword Fairy's tape craze will only be a transitional period. After a few days, when people find out that the tape they bought is just a box of garbage, the craze for taking care of it will probably fade away in an instant.
But soon, he rejected this ridiculous idea.
My God, there really are perfect people in this world!
…
When a truck slowly approached from a short distance away, Tao Shilin quickly called to the store employees to help unload the goods.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, get in line! Everyone has seen it, there is enough supply, it's just a matter of a few minutes early and a few minutes late, everyone, get in line, I guarantee that everyone can buy it!"
After instructing his employees to unload the goods, Tao Shilin returned to the bookstore with the people from Shengshi Audio and Video who came to deliver the goods and began to preside over the sales.
"The price is five yuan? Are you sick? Why didn't you inform me in advance?"
When Tao Shilin heard the words of the Shengshi Audiovisual Business Manager, he was immediately shocked and unbelievable.
In Hong Kong, most music tapes cost only two to three yuan. Even for Hua De'an's tapes, when supplies were in short supply, the highest price never exceeded five yuan.
"Listen to me."
Faced with Tao Shilin's scolding, the business manager of Shengshi Audio and Video said with a smile, "We made a spur-of-the-moment idea and rushed out two batches of tapes, divided into ordinary versions and exquisite versions."
Tao Shilin asked: "What's the difference?"
"There is no difference. The sound quality of the ordinary version of the tape and the exquisite version of the tape are the same, but in the packaging box of the latter, there is a high-definition poster of Li Qing himself. Well, that's it." said the business manager.
Tao Shilin's eyes widened in an instant, remembering that posters at the door had been stolen one after another in the past few days.
The next moment, he patted the business manager on the shoulder and sighed: "I'm convinced."
Later, Tao Shilin made it public that the tape was priced at five yuan.
All the girls at the scene screamed.
“Why do we need to increase the price!”
"Didn't you say two yuan before?"
"I'm going to the Hong Kong Governor to sue you!"
"I want to expose you profiteers!"
Tao Shilin's forehead suddenly broke out in sweat, and he quickly told the two versions of the story, and solemnly explained that the tape box priced at five yuan might contain a limited edition poster of Li Qing himself.
Yes, limited edition poster, what a high-end word, no matter if it is limited edition or not, you will make money if you buy it!
For a moment, the girls were like kittens full of fighting spirit, taking out their banknotes to buy the limited edition.
"Wow, I bought it, what a beautiful poster!"
"There really is my sword fairy!"
"So lucky... Hey, you have it too!"
"Why are all the posters and portraits the same? This is not a limited edition!"
"Unscrupulous boss!"
"Shadow businessman!"
"Forget it, I bought it for my sword fairy!"——
