After leaving the sample subscription letter for Qi Chuan to admire, she sent a copy of the document to Lao Miao and Yu Yao respectively, and also left them a message about the bad news that Jiang Yucheng refused to sign the contract. After finishing everything, Chu Li jumped into bed and prepared to sleep... Before going to bed, she received a message on her phone saying that Yu Yao had received her document. A moment later, Yu Yao replied -

【Yu Yao: The subscription letter is not good enough. The description of the cocoon is too calm and not exaggerated enough. I need to revise it and make her look even better than the heavens.】

[The Monkey’s hired nausea: …Just seeing this written on the subscription letter makes me almost vomit. ]

【Yu Yao: Then spit it out, and then continue to blow it for me. 】

【Yu Yao: As for the contract for "The Lost Amusement Park", you don't need to panic. I guessed that Jiang Yucheng would not sign the contract. If I guessed correctly, he should wait and see after the release of "The Divine Book of Luo River" by Chu Chuan before making a decision - after all, Jiang Yucheng is more practical than Chu Chuan - you may not believe it, but according to the classification, Chu Chuan is a typical romantic poet in ancient times, like Li Bai.】

Chu Li: "..."

Chu Li was completely lost in thought for a few seconds as she held onto her phone. She suddenly recalled someone's comparison of herself and the physical bookseller to "bears and honey" ten minutes ago... Is the physical bookseller Winnie the Pooh? Sure, that's romantic.

[The Monkey’s hired navy: Li Bai’s coffin lid can’t even be pressed down. Why do you, boss, deliberately make me unable to sleep on a weekend night? ]

【Yu Yao: Hahahahahahahahaha! 】

【Yu Yao: By the way, I saw Jiang Yucheng posted a Weibo showing off three movie ticket stubs... Did Chu Chuan go with him? Why didn't you forward it? It would be a waste of time to watch the movie - how could you miss such a good opportunity to show off?】

Chu Li: "..."

Show off your power? Show off your power to whom?

New Shield Society?

Waving his wrists, he boasted loudly: Look, you authors who have published hundreds of thousands of books but don’t even have the money to print them, were cheated by us with a movie voucher worth 18 dollars. Hahaha, aren’t you angry?

Chu Li was confused and couldn't ask Yu Yao such a stupid question, so he had to go to the official Weibo account of "Moonlight" magazine and repost Jiang Yucheng's Weibo with the caption: [I am very happy to watch this movie with my teacher. I learned a lot and have many feelings. Let's work hard together (laughs)! ]

——This kind of wording can be said to be very calm and composed.

But this does not prevent some readers from leaving comments below:

【Oh my god, I went to see a movie with Jiang Yucheng! I’m so jealous! 】

[This is already a kind of benefit... I heard that Jiang Yucheng is also very handsome. Is there such a good thing as an editor? After all, he never does autograph sessions, and it is difficult for ordinary fans to see him once - three movie tickets, the other one can't be for Chu Chuan, hehe. ]

[QAQ I want to be an editor at Yuanyueshe, my Jiang Yucheng! 】

[Judging from the style of her statement, the official blogger should be a woman... Did you watch a movie with Jiang Yucheng and Zhu Chuan for the first time? 】

[I don’t know why I feel a little unhappy…]

[You even forwarded it, just read it, can't you be more low-key? Such a boastful tone. ]

above.

Chu Li read some reviews, and found that there was a shadowy and weird one in about seven or eight of them. He took screenshots of these reviews and sent them to the WeChat group of the editorial department of Moonlight. Yu Yao was the first to jump out and typed a series of "...", followed by Ah Xiang.

【Flying Elephant: It's amazing that you can play like this. 】

[Yu Yao: ...I was also a little surprised. Sorry Chuli, I have never managed a male author who is a bit of an idol with real talent. I didn't expect that there would be fans who were unhappy after watching a movie.]

【啾啾肥啾: It can’t be that Xindun invited the navy to bring the rhythm 2333333! 】

Chu Li thought to himself, what the hell is your “23333”? What’s the funny point? I’m just so mad, okay?

Chu Li was feeling annoyed when there was another knock on the door. She instinctively said, "The door is not locked." The next second, the door was pushed open.

The man stood outside the door with his back to the light, silently looking at the guy in the room: In the moonlight, she sat in the middle of the bed in the attic, wearing a white nightgown and white fluffy bedding. She looked like she was almost buried in the snow.

Zhuo Chuan's eyes sparkled. He inexplicably felt that the bed under Chu Li's butt in the attic seemed quite comfortable. He resisted the urge to go over and try it out. He changed his stance and said, "I saw the Weibo."

Use declarative sentences.

"Why are you reposting Jiang Yucheng's Weibo when you have nothing else to do? This person who can't wait to post a Weibo to show his presence every time he breathes air?"

This time it's a question, the kind of sentence that requires an answer.

"...I thought you came here to fight me, but you saw it too," Chu Li raised her hand and scratched her face, half jokingly saying, "Yu Yao asked me to repost this Weibo post. She used to recommend female authors, and she probably didn't expect that the female fans of idol authors like you would be so crazy..."

Zhuo Chuan leaned against the door frame, his tall figure seemed to block the door tightly. Chu Li couldn't see the expression on his face because of the light behind him. The man was silent for a moment. For the first time in his life, he didn't start a long, off-topic debate with her about the word "idol". Instead, he said calmly, "I'll go and talk to them to shut up?"

Chu Li was shocked: "Don't do that, it will only have the opposite effect."

"Then you'll let them scold you?"

"Anyway, they were scolding the official blog of Moonlight Magazine, not me by name," Chu Li thought for a moment and said, "I'm not really angry."

"I think you are a bit stupid, right?"

“…”

After the man finished speaking, he turned and left under Chu Li's glare, and did not forget to close the door for her when he left... Chu Li listened to the attic stairs making "creaking" sounds under his feet. Until the sound disappeared, Chu Li was sure that he had gone far away, and picked up her phone again to check Weibo.

At this time, there were more than 400 comments on the official Weibo account, and about 30 to 40 weird comments...and the number was still increasing.

This growth trend stopped after a while. Chu Li was a little curious until he received a screenshot from Yu Yao on WeChat.

Less than five minutes after Zhuchuan went downstairs, he actually updated a new chapter on Weibo. This sudden "second update today" took away all his fans who were looking for trouble on the magazine's official Weibo account.

Under Jiang Yucheng's Weibo, a fan left a message: [Did your editor go with you and Mr. Hirokawa? I'm so jealous], Jiang Yucheng specifically picked this reply and replied calmly: [No, Yuanyue Publishing House issued a lot of vouchers so that the author and the entire editorial department could go together. ];

At the same time, as if to prove that Jiang Yucheng's words were true, Suo Heng also left a message on the official Weibo of Moonlight magazine: [A movie worth watching:)]...

A group of people used ambiguous words and a well-timed update to easily divert fans' strange attention and create the illusion that everyone went to the movie together this time -

Chu Li privately thanked Jiang Yucheng on Q, and also thanked Suo Heng - she was quite surprised by Suo Heng's appearance. No matter how she thought about it, she felt that it was not Lao Miao who asked her to come. Then who asked her to come... Chu Li could guess it with her toes.

When Chu Li went to thank Zhuo Chuan, this guy's reaction was rather peculiar. The man replied her with a "?", and then said, as if he was afraid of being embarrassed, "Why are you thanking me for my second update? No matter how happy the fans are, they still love me, and I may not sign this book for you."

Chu Li: "..."

Throw away your phone and go to sleep.

She just forgot about the little incident that happened before going to bed due to forwarding a Weibo post.

…

In the next three days, Chu Li fell into the center of an unprecedented brain storm.

People may not believe it, but Chu Li revised that crappy subscription letter countless times.

on Monday.

After being severely criticized by Lao Miao for “how could you not even mention the important identity of the calligrapher who wrote the inscription on the cover”, Chu Li thought, oh my god, that’s true, and quickly added the old calligrapher’s name between Zhechuan and Niangniang, searched on Baidu for various names of the old calligrapher, selected a few fashionable and particularly impressive ones, and copied and pasted them… This was the only thing that Lao Miao told Chu Li in detail about what to change. Then, with Lao Miao’s vague instructions such as “this is not allowed” and “you can’t say that”, Chu Li revised the book introduction and editor’s recommendation content eight or ten times. By the end of working hours on Tuesday morning, the ninth version of the subscription letter in his hand barely passed Lao Miao’s scrutiny.

Then give it to Yu Yao.

Yu Yao took a quick glance and hit Chu Li back with one sentence: "Didn't I tell you on Saturday night that the flattery of Empress Xu was not strong enough? Why haven't you changed it yet?"

——This means that this subscription letter will have the tenth or even eleventh version.

The first gift eggs were all broken.

After reading the subscription letter, she found that Yu Yao was not trying to embarrass her. She really didn't change the description of the cocoon. After thinking about it, it must be something that happened that night. She was so dizzy from the support of Teacher Jiang Yucheng's fans who had their faces full of "How dare you touch my cabbage" that she actually forgot about it...

I immediately took the subscription letter back and prepared the tenth edition.

The Queen of the Moon is praised as the top domestic ancient style merchant, with millions of fans, who can call the shots, and join hands with Zhuchuan to kill all enemies in the world. Anyone who has eyes and likes to read ancient style themes will definitely buy it. But if you don't buy it, you are just a blind man who can only listen to the reading version.

At this point, he suppressed his disgust, passed Yu Yao's review, and sent it to Teacher Xia for review.

Then, at Teacher Xia's place, I was forced to revise this piece of scrap paper with just a few hundred words over and over again because of some comments like "the words you use are cliché and low-level" and "it sounds like an elementary school student's composition."

Finally before leaving get off work on Wednesday afternoon.

Chu Li received a notification from Teacher Xia on Q that the manuscript had been accepted. He almost cried with joy while sitting in front of the computer. With a heart full of gratitude to the world, he sent the subscription letter to the marketing department.

Friday.

The first batch of booksellers' orders arrived -

The marketing department sent a data spreadsheet. Before she saved it and opened it, Chu Li was as nervous as when she stood in front of the phone and dialed the hotline to check her college entrance examination scores. When she placed the mouse pointer on the spreadsheet file, she could clearly hear her heart beating strongly in her chest...

The computer screen reflected her eyes, which were glowing with intense concentration.

He looked around like a thief and found that everyone was busy with their own things and no one noticed him. Chu Li then took a deep breath and quickly opened the form.

Today, the Marketing Department received orders from 87 booksellers, and the total number of orders is exactly 45,200 sets.

Chu Li: "..."

This is the first day of subscription!

According to the number of booksellers that Yuanyue Publishing House has cooperated with in the past, there should be more than 400 booksellers of all sizes who will come one after another... This means that the 45,000 who left today may be less than one-fifth of the number!!!

And today, the number of orders has reached the first print run that Yuanyue Publishing House gave to Zhuchuan - this means that the first print run on the final contract will definitely change. When 45,000 sets of "Luohe Divine Book" were sold on the first day, the boss of Yuanyue Publishing House felt at ease when he saw it. The more books are printed, the lower the cost. Of course, as long as they can be sold, they will print as many as possible. Therefore, after today, the final first print run of this set of books may directly soar to 150,000 or even more than 200,000!

Fifteen thousand, this basically reached the passing line that Zhuchuan originally wanted.

The joy in his heart was like a flower exploding. The mouse poked at the spreadsheet unconsciously, making a "clicking" sound. He was reluctant to close the open spreadsheet. Chu Li looked over the purchase figures of the three booksellers again and again.

Then he stared at the words "Total: 45200" and smiled happily.

The gaping mouth couldn't be closed at all.

This kind of joy must be shared with everyone.

I happily took a screenshot of today’s subscription total and sent it to the QQ group of the Moonlight magazine editorial department, the Yuanyueshe editorial department group where Teacher Xia was also, and Zhuchuan——

In the group where everyone was posting "applause" emojis like it was Chinese New Year, Chu Li found that only Zhu Chuan didn't respond, so she shook her window wildly until the man appeared and quickly replied with a "." Chu Li's originally cracked mouth was almost split to the roots of her ears, turning into a slit-mouthed woman——

[The Monkey’s hired navy: Ahhhhhhhhh, teacher, did you see that? Forty-five thousand! Forty-five thousand on the first day!!! More than four hundred more booksellers will rush to the battlefield!!!]

[The navy hired by the monkey: The six-digit first print run is stable. 】

[The water army hired by Monkey: I told you that you can do it! ! ! ! How can a low first print contract stop you from shining! ! ! ! ]

【Zhuchuan:. 】

【Zhuchuan: OK, OK, then congratulate myself. 】

[Zhuchuan: It is indeed honey for bears. Please give me 200,000 copies. You know Yuanyue Society has money. I have proven myself, so why don’t you pay for it? ]

[The water army hired by the monkey: "Crazy nodding emoticon package." 】

[The water army hired by Monkey: Teacher Xia said that this is also due to my continuous promotion of the book in the past few months and my good writing of the subscription letter! ! ! ! ]

[The water army hired by Monkey: Oh my god, I am so moved that I am about to cry. I really want to cry. Will Lao Miao laugh at me if I cry out loud in the editorial office? ? ? ]

【Zhuchuan: ...I know, I know. You did a good job.】

[The water army hired by Monkey: Let’s not talk about the battle of wits and courage with the goddess of the moon every day. As a student of liberal arts, I almost want to turn the contract law upside down. After completing this cooperation, I can take the judicial examination!!!]

[Zhuchuan: ...I know, I know. You've worked hard. 】

[The trolls hired by the monkey: Spoilers on Weibo and Tieba every day, forcing the Queen to cooperate with the promotion! She must be hating me in her heart! ! ]

[Zhuchuan: ...I know, I know. You have been wronged. 】

[The Monkey’s hired naval forces: I revised the subscription letter more than twenty times in total!! I have the records of every version here!!! If you don’t believe me, I’ll take a screenshot and show you, look, look, I’ll take a screenshot and show you——]

【Zhuchuan:…… ...

[The navy hired by the monkey: …]

[The monkey’s hired navy: I’m happy to do it.]

The sudden change in style of the period actually made the man who actually opened Baidu and typed in "how to praise primary school students" stop. He stared at the period that suddenly turned into asexual indifference in a moment, remained silent, and closed the Baidu page.

[Zhuchuan: ...I didn't say I wouldn't make you happy. ]

[Zhuochuan: As a reward for your twenty-odd subscription letters, let's go out to dinner tonight.]

【Zhechuan: Lobster, bird's nest, dragon king meat, what do you want to eat? 】

Here, in the editorial department, Chu Li was sitting in front of the computer with her eyes narrowed by laughter.

She closed the windows of colleagues who were privately chatting and congratulating her on her first victory, and raised her hand to answer Zhuo Chuan, when she suddenly heard Lao Miao, who was sitting next to her, sighing, "It's great to be an author with your own fans, as they can easily achieve such incredible sales... And you can also spread the word within the company: it's because the new editor wrote a good subscription letter! What a genius editor!"

Chu Li put down his hand and turned to look at Lao Miao.

He looked at the Yuanyue Society group again, and sure enough, someone tagged Lao Miao, half-jokingly saying something like "You're going to be surpassed by a newcomer"... At this time, Lao Miao also turned his head and looked at Chu Li: "In fact, I don't know how many people didn't even read the content of the subscription letter, and when they heard Zhuo Chuan's name, they closed their eyes and added zeros after the number on the purchase order. They added more or less casually..."

Chu Li: "..."

Lao Miao's words were indeed like a bucket of cold water poured down on one's head on a November day -

Yeah, Lao Miao is jealous, but what he said seems to be correct: the whole process seems to be starring the bears and honey, and no one cares about the bees buzzing in the background making honey... Of course, the bears didn't come for the bees, in their eyes, there was only honey.

………………That is to say, out of the sales of 45,200, at most 200 are related to her working day and night to revise that crappy subscription letter?

Chu Li couldn't laugh anymore, but Yu Yao raised his head and said, "Lao Miao, can you not be so cunning?" Lao Miao's attention turned directly to Yu Yao: "She is so amazing, then you can let her take care of Suo Heng. It just so happens that Suo Heng's next book is about to start selecting themes for serialization - you let Chu Li take care of it from the beginning. If she becomes popular, I lose."

Lao Miao was typing away on the keyboard, shouting, "Who can't do a good job? Didn't Zhuchuan's books sell like this in the past with a print run of hundreds of thousands of copies? Standing on the top of Mount Everest and looking down on all the other mountains is nothing. If you have the ability, build your own mountain!"

Chu Li stood up and asked, "What's going on?"

Lao Miao: "Aren't you a talented newcomer? See if you can manage to get 350,000 copies of this book printed by editing alone. You don't need to rely on Zhuo Chuan, just on yourself. If you can do it, I'll let you be the deputy editor-in-chief."

Chu Li narrowed her eyes slightly, thought about it, and suddenly smiled. She nodded: "Okay."

In fact, she herself didn't know what she could do... She only knew that 350,000 copies were printed. The most popular book by Chu Chuan before only had a print run of about 230,000 copies. This was a peak achievement that even Chu Chuan himself had never achieved. She could do it so that Lao Miao would give up the position of deputy editor-in-chief to her.

If you can't do it, the most you'll get is a few words of ridicule, but it's not a loss no matter how you think about it.

And now I was so excited——

She even dug another hole for herself before she could react: "Give Suo Heng to me too. I'll be responsible for the new series. If you don't want to lead it, forget it! I'll lead it!"
