After marrying Tianhou, I suddenly became popular

Chapter 51 The Possibility of Headwinds

As time went by, Master Culture Publishing House launched works for the Autumn New Talent Contest, and sales gradually increased.

It's not that the quality of the works published by Confucius Culture Publishing House is too poor, but that readers' reading tastes are getting better and better.

In addition, it is difficult to write new ideas when writing urban texts. There are more and more restrictions on writing supernatural and suspenseful texts. You can’t write what you can’t write. It’s easy to write something that readers love to read. Eat thunder.

It can only be said that the audience group of Master Culture Publishing House's subject matter limits its development.

In the past few years, in urban themes, he can write casually about the boss. For example, there is a novel "My Domineering President", which tells the story that the protagonist is the boss of a listed company, and the heroine is a new employee who came out of a low-level university. A series of bloody stories that can no longer be bloody, the two quickly developed feelings for each other.

Looking at that book from the current point of view can be said to be very eye-catching, but in that era, readers loved to read it, and there were many people who stayed up late to follow up on it.

It's not that the quality has declined, but that readers' tastes have changed, or that the works on the market are too homogeneous.

This is also this year's Autumn New Talent Contest. The main works promoted by Master Culture Publishing House are fantasy novels, in order to seize the market of fantasy novels and turn fantasy novels into the main territory of Master Culture.

As a result, it failed.

"We might still have a chance."

The editor-in-chief of the third editorial department stared at the data report and said: "Although the sales volume of the novel "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" has not yet entered the top 9.3 on the list, it has a good reputation. Now the score is as high as [-] points. It's already very high."

"what?"

An editor quickly found the name of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" on the data report: "Damn it! The score is so high, the word of mouth is blown up!"

The editor-in-chief helped the frame, and said affirmatively: ""Ghost Blowing the Lantern" only got the second-level recommended quota, and the subject matter is also a new subject that has never appeared in the market. There is no definite readership group, and the sales volume is not so high. It is normal."

After a pause, the editor-in-chief continued: "But the score as high as 9.3 also shows that almost all the people who have read this book have become readers of this book."

The editor-in-chief was right.

There are many factors for the low sales of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" in the past few days, the biggest of which is the lack of a readership base.

Novels with other themes have fixed target readers.

However, "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is a new theme, and there has never been a novel with this theme on the market.

"Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is the originator of the theme of tomb robbery.

However, for the new theme "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", readers who have read it rated it as high as 9.3 points, which is enough to show that almost everyone who has read this book likes it.

"I watched "Ghost Blowing the Lantern". The writing is very high-level and sophisticated. It doesn't look like a novice."

"With a wild and unconstrained imagination, I think if it weren't for the new theme, the sales of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" would definitely not be as low as it is now."

"I didn't expect that such a thing as tomb robbery could be written as a novel. The key is that it is so wonderfully written. I went to the bookstore and bought a copy to read. I am going to put it on my bookshelf at home."

"Indeed, the author of this book has a great imagination."

"Although it's about tomb robbery, it doesn't have to be a novel about ghosts and horrors to make you feel at ease. It's even scarier than ghost novels. After An Lan read it for me, I was so scared to death when I got home from get off work that night. "

"..."

Almost all the editors in the third editorial department have read this "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", which has been read countless times by Anlan Amway, and there is nothing to say about the quality.

But there is no reader base, which is the flaw of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern". The most important thing is that the selection time for the Autumn New Talent Contest is only ten days, and now three days have passed.

It is not an exaggeration to say that one-third of the time has passed, and the sales volume of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" has not even entered the top [-].

"It's too sad to have no reader base. This is the tragedy of Kaishan."

"The No.1 statement is also very discouraging. Many readers will quit directly because they saw the No.1 statement at the beginning and will not read the following content."

"Indeed, without knowing the content of the novel, I saw that No.1 said that there is a high probability that I would give up reading it."

The editors of the third editorial department were not excited by the high reputation of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern". Every year, there will be some novels with explosive reputation but unsatisfactory sales.

Publishing houses of this kind of novels will give recommended resources, but the sales will be difficult to increase in the end. If you like it, you like it very much, and if you don’t like it, you really don’t like it.

"Ghost Blowing Lantern" is currently in this situation.

"There is still a chance."

The editor-in-chief tried to comfort everyone: "Today's sales volume has not yet come out, maybe "Ghost Blowing Lantern" will overtake it! Everything is possible!"

"Editor, you are so optimistic."

"It's just possible, not very likely. No. 1 said that it hurts too much to have no reader base. If you give "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" a little longer and give it time to accumulate readers, I believe sales will definitely increase. The selection time for the Japanese New Talent Competition is too short."

The editors didn't hold out much hope, only An Lan and the editor-in-chief hadn't given up.

"Today's sales should be out, right?" The editor-in-chief glanced at the time, and it was almost time to get off work, so the sales should have already come out.

"Maybe the statistics department is too busy to go, so it hasn't been sent yet!"

"Let's get off work first, let's look at the data when you come tomorrow!" The editor-in-chief sighed, he still wanted to see today's sales data before leaving get off work!

It seems there is no chance.

Everyone looked worried.

"Here we come." An Lan, who was about to turn off the computer, suddenly screamed, instantly attracting the attention of all the editors in the third editorial department.

An Lan greeted her colleagues: "Today's sales have come down, and the statistics department just sent them over."

Everyone else's computers were turned off, and only An Lan's computer was left on in the third editorial department.

All the editors surrounded the past, and the editor-in-chief followed.

"How? How? How much? How much?"

"How's the sales of "Master Genius"? Did it drop?"

The focus of the editors' attention is still on "Master Genius" of the second editorial department, after all, this is the last facade of Master Culture Publishing House.

An Lan moved several times and clicked on the data leaderboard.

No.1 is still Linglong Publishing House's work "Women Don't Disorder the Country".

No.2 is the work "Escape from Mars" by Northern Media Publishing House.

……

The nervous eyes of the editors slipped down, for fear of missing the appearance of the Confucius Culture Publishing House.

"It's over!"

"Master Genius" fell out of the top 20 as expected, ranking second at No.[-].

"This time it's really over. It's only been three days, and our publishing house can't even get into the top [-]."

There are still seven days to go, and if this momentum continues, "Master Genius" may fall out of the top [-].

The editor-in-chief who had just squeezed in asked, "What about "Ghost Blowing the Lantern"?"

An Lan dragged the mouse down.

For some reason, the editors suddenly became nervous. Although they didn't have much expectations in their hearts, they actually looked forward to this moment.

What if!
In case, there is a miracle!
When the editors saw the ranking in front of those three words, everyone was stunned.

Followed by.

Cheers sounded in the third editorial department.

"Come in!"

"Damn it, it's really in!"

"Awesome, "Ghost Blowing Lantern" is awesome!"

Into the top fifty.
