I copied my daughter in the parallel world

Chapter 36
Gu Cheng took care of Youyou every day like this, his life was plain, but full of warmth. For Gu Cheng, he could see his daughter's little face every day, and he didn't feel tired at all. Facing Youyou, he put away his own The edges and corners that always show people make themselves as soft as a gentle sponge.

The publishing house here is confirming that there is no problem with the sample book, there are no typos and typos, and the basic design of the book is all right, and it has also begun to place an order with the printing house. With a wave of its hand, it is [-] copies, and at the same time, it has also started a grand omni-channel publicity.

As a publishing house with very old qualifications in Huaguo, Haohan Publishing House is basically very familiar with many dealers. This is also the advantage of old qualifications. Before you show your disadvantages, many people will subconsciously sell you a few times because of the previous cooperation. Divide into thin noodles.

Yu Qi has put in a lot of effort this time, and he patted his chest to the big boss to guarantee that this time is definitely another brilliant opportunity for the publishing house, and then he used his future career as a guarantee, and approved a huge sum of publicity expenses .

The body of the bus, large promotional posters posted at the entrances of libraries in various places, major front-line media and newspapers that are still popular, have introduced and publicized the book and the author, and Gu Cheng's handsome face quietly appeared in various places in the corner of the city.

When the subordinates came to inform Yu Qi that there was not much publicity money left in the publisher's account, and the publicity plan had begun to bear fruit. The name "Murder on the Orient Express" was known to many people, and the discussions in their spare time would inevitably be brought up. With this name, they share the information they know with each other.

"Eh? Did you know? There is a book coming out recently, and information can be found in many places. It's called "Murder on the Orient Express". Xiao Li, aren't you a fan of mystery novels? Do you want to buy a copy? ?”

The person who was asked also understood, and responded with anticipation.

"I heard that the author of this book is a master's graduate of the Department of Literature of Huaguo University. I saw that the professors of the Department of Literature of Huaguo University recommended this book in their columns. It seems that it should be good. It is rare. A mystery novel is published, of course I want to buy it and read it.”

Similar dialogues took place in many corners of Huaguo. Although the literary market in Huaguo has been in a slump for reasoning novels in recent years, this theme is the easiest to adapt into film and television dramas. The works of mystery novel masters at the end of the last century are still The popular circulation has led to wave after wave of book fans of this theme, and the film and television screens are also flooded with dramas made by adaptation masters, so the potential fans of mystery novels are not less than any other category, and correspondingly, there are some beyond. .

And because most of the related works that have appeared in these years are third-rate plots, and there is nothing that can make people's eyes shine, so everyone is bored with this theme over and over again. Only the works of masters are boring, and the market is also eager for new mystery novels. .

The major publishing houses also want to get involved in this huge market. They hold an unknown number of mystery essay competitions every year. The prize money of the competitions has increased and the rewards have increased and increased, but the final winning works have not met expectations. expect.

Yu Qi has been in the publishing house for three days. During these three days, he has been paying attention to his publicity plan and feedback. When he is sleepy, he will take a nap in the office and be ready to deal with emergencies.

He widened his bloodshot eyes and looked at the reader questionnaires from all over the world. The readers interviewed in the market had already reached 80% of their expectations for the new book. This is already a remarkable statistic. After that, I will buy a copy and have a look. Even if only five of ten people buy it, then the number of initial prints I originally set is not enough.

However, he does not plan to reprint it now. After running the publishing house for so many years, he is already a master in book sales. At this time, proper hunger marketing can bring greater repercussions. The company's sales situation is a pleasant surprise.

"Good boy, I hope you can give me a big hit in sales as I expected."

Yu Qi looked at the sample booklet in his hand. The book was opened, and the page happened to be Gu Cheng's profile. He looked at the photo on it and muttered to himself.

Now is a turning point for him. If he can succeed this time, no one can shake his position in the publishing house. He will completely grasp this place in his hands. If he fails, no need for others to tell him, he will clean up automatically. Things go away, and competitors celebrate.

But he has no choice. Facing the tight pressure from his competitors, and his own performance this year is indeed not satisfactory, he might as well break the boat and fight.

Why does Yu Qi value Gu Cheng's book so much?One is because as Gu Cheng’s senior and the editor-in-chief of a publishing house, Yu Qi also has his own level of appreciation. The plot, dialogue, and writing style of a book, these basic things can be roughly understood after reading a few chapters .

And he was not unprepared. After getting the manuscript from Gu Cheng, he hired nearly more than 20 literary critics to conduct a focused discussion. Everyone agreed that this book is the best reasoning in the Huaguo market in this century. novel.

Literati are light on each other, and everyone can have the same opinion, which shows how excellent this book is, and this is also the source of Yu Qi's confidence.

Thinking of this, Yu Qi picked up his mobile phone and pressed the most recently dialed number.

"Doo~ senior brother?"

Gu Cheng looked at the incoming calls on his mobile phone. As the date of the book's release was getting closer, the number of phone calls between Yu Qi and himself gradually increased. In the past two days, it has developed to five times a day.

Gu Cheng also understands, after all, this book is no longer his own, Yu Qi has basically suppressed all his abilities, and it is not like he came from time travel, and he has not seen the status of this book in his previous life And achievements, no matter how good others praise them, no one can say that they have no plans before the results come out.

"Chengzi, a film and television company contacted me and wanted to buy the film and television adaptation rights before the book was released. The price is around 500,000. How do you think about it?"

"500,000?"

Gu Cheng smiled contemptuously. This price may be sky-high in the eyes of many new writers, but Gu Cheng still doesn't take it seriously. The copyright of the mystery novel was sold for 500,000, and most of them would mock themselves for not understanding anything.

Moreover, this film and television company wanted to buy the copyright at this time, and the idea was not very good. They wanted to catch a surprise, and if there was a date, if the sales exploded later, they would undoubtedly take advantage of it. They bought the copyright of a best-selling book with very little money. If the sales volume is poor, they will not lose money. The publishing house has already done so much in the early stage, and the popularity of this book has already been established. If you do it casually, you can get back the cost.
