Li Nan's action of slapping the table startled Fang Xingkai, and he felt some pain in his hand after slapping it.
Rubbing his wrist, he saw Fang Xingkai in front of him.
"You're here, what's the matter?"
Fang Xingkai now wanted to ask Li Nan why he was so excited, but he still reported his own affairs first.
"Zhang Zhong has agreed to our conditions."
Li Nan raised his eyebrows and said happily, "That's a good thing! Then prepare yourself and go to Jiangyang tomorrow to confirm the contract with him face to face."
Fang Xingkai nodded and said, "Okay, I'll contact him right away."
"Well, the sooner the better."
After finishing speaking, Fang Xingkai glanced at Li Nan's computer screen and asked curiously, "Editor-in-Chief, what were you watching just now that made you so excited?"
Li Nan laughed and said, "It's also a happy event. Come and take a look."
Fang Xingkai walked around the table and came to the computer. He saw a set of data on it.
[Annual New Book Sales List]
"Just updated, the sales volume of "Jieyou Grocery Store" has reached the tenth place." Li Nan said.
"Oh, that is indeed a happy event."
"Worry-Free Grocery Store" was only released in October, which is later than other books on the list, so it is not easy to get into the top ten.
Li Nan pointed at the screen and moved his finger again, and said, "Let's see who is number 11."
Fang Xingkai followed Li Nan's finger and his eyes suddenly opened wide. When he heard that "Jieyou Grocery Store" was ranked among the top ten, he didn't have a specific concept in his mind, but when he saw that the eleventh place was
When watching "Flying Snow 2", I immediately understood why Li Nan was so excited.
More than a month ago, there was still a sales difference of more than 1.5 million between the two books, but now "The Worry-Free Grocery Store" has caught up from behind and completed a great reversal.
For more than a month, "Flying Snow 2" itself is still selling, and "Jieyou Grocery Store" must achieve an average of tens of thousands more sales than "Flying Snow 2" every day.
According to the current data on the list, the sales volume of "Jieyou Grocery Store" is 3.32 million, and the sales volume of "Flying Snow 2" is 3.21 million.
There are two reasons why "The Worry-Free Grocery Store" was able to complete a great turnaround so quickly. One is that it has strong staying power. When the sales of other books gradually declined, its sales have been maintained very well.
The second reason is that Zhang Zhong's new book "Ten Little Indian Boys" is on sale. The new book is accompanied by the old book. While the new book is popular, the old book that has just been released also has a surge in sales.
Fang Xingkai had previously thought that there might be a third volume in the "Flying Snow" series, and by then the sales of the other two books in "Flying Snow" would soar.
Unexpectedly, "Flying Snow 3" has not been released, and Zhang Zhong has released a new book after more than a month.
Fang Xingkai glanced at Li Nan, who had a happy face, and admired him greatly. The editor-in-chief was still the editor-in-chief. Under the circumstances at that time, he could conclusively conclude that the sales volume of "Jieyou Grocery Store" would definitely exceed that of "Flying Snow 2"
》, the result was not only achieved, but it also took such a short time.
Li Nan also raised his head and glanced at Fang Xingkai, and then said, "Don't worry, look down again."
He scrolled down the sales list, and at around fifty, Fang Xingkai saw another familiar title - Ten Little Indian Boys.
In less than two weeks after its release, this book ranked 53rd on the annual list with sales of 1.55 million.
Maybe it won't be long before Zhang Zhong alone will occupy two of the top ten spots on this year's new book sales list.
Has something like this happened before?
Fang Xingkai thought for a while, but it seemed that he had never thought about it.
And the most important thing is that one of these two books was released at the beginning of October, and the other was only released at the end of November.
Of course, it is still very difficult for "Ten Little Indian Boys" to enter the top ten. After all, there is less than a month left this year, and it needs 70,000 to 80,000 sales per day to achieve this goal.
Fang Xingkai was thinking wildly, but Lin Nan thought along with him, "Maybe by the end of this year, Zhang Zhong's two books will be in the top ten."
"This...is a little difficult."
"It is indeed a bit difficult, but it is not impossible. Huayi has lost the film and television rights. If they can help with a wave of publicity in the near future, they might be able to boost sales in one go."
"Huayi just took over the copyright. We haven't secured any sponsorship and the project hasn't been established yet. I'm afraid we won't help with publicity."
"That's why I say it's a bit difficult. Don't think about it. It's just the icing on the cake. Just focus on signing "Murder on the Orient Express" now. Maybe it will be the new book sales champion next year."
…
Fang Xingkai rushed to Jiangyang the next morning.
Zhang Zhong was going to Nanhuai Film Academy in the afternoon, so when he contacted Fang Xingkai yesterday, he told him that he didn't have time in the afternoon. He originally wanted to move the signing of the contract to a later day, but Fang Xingkai was unwilling and rushed over in the morning.
.
After the contract was signed, Zhang Zhong looked at Fang Xingkai who breathed a sigh of relief and joked with a smile, "Since I have agreed, I won't let you go. There is no need to be so hasty."
Fang Xingkai relaxed and smiled as he leaned back in his chair, "The cooked duck can fly. I think it's better to finalize the matter as soon as possible. If anything happens to you, I'm afraid I'll be beaten when I go back."
Editor Li cursed me to death."
Zhang Zhong picked up the tea cup with a smile and said, "The duck can fly, which means it is still undercooked. I won't treat you to dinner today at noon. Next time you have time to come to Jiangyang to play, I will be the host."
Zhang Chongming appeared to be talking about inviting him to dinner, but in fact he was already seeing off the guests. He also had to go to the kindergarten to pick up Pengpeng and take her home for dinner.
Fang Xingkai was not a dumbass who didn't understand anything. When he saw Zhang Zhong serving tea to see off the guests, he stood up and said, "I have to rush back to deliver the business."
After sending Fang Xingkai away, Zhang Zhong went to pick up Peng Peng.
Pengpeng was extremely happy today. When she left the kindergarten, everyone was jumping out of the kindergarten.
"Liu Minya, we have agreed."
Pengpeng shouted towards Liu Minya in the distance.
Zhang Zhong saw Liu Minya and her father Liu Feng not far away, and nodded and smiled at them.
Liu Minya also nodded heavily and said, "We agreed, Zhang Pengpeng."
After Liu Minya and Liu Feng left, Zhang Zhong asked Pengpeng curiously, "What did you agree with Liu Minya?"
"Liu Minya invited me to visit her home in the evening."
It turned out that this was the case. Zhang Zhong touched his daughter's head and said with a smile, "Are you so happy to go to her house?"
"Uh-huh." Pengpeng straightened her head, "I haven't been a guest at another classmate's house yet."
