Zhao Yang was relieved when he heard Ningxia agreed. The editor-in-chief was urging him to agree, but Ningxia was unwilling. It was not easy for him to be caught in the middle.
This is the only solution, and we finally found this compromise.
"By the way, Mr. Xia, I have good news for you. Last time I called you, you hung up in a hurry and didn't even have time to tell me. This time, the first print run of three million copies has been instantly sold out by bookstores."
"Our editor-in-chief also predicted "Grave Robbers' Chronicles". No, no, it was "Ghost Blows Out the Light". They got it mixed up." Hehehe
"The editor-in-chief predicts that 'Ghost Lights Up the Lantern' will sell 20 percent more than 'Grave Robbers' Chronicles'."
Ningxia had long known that Zhao Yang knew that she was the author of these two books. After all, Yao Yuncai was this person's aunt.
There's no way to hide it.
This is the result of the editor-in-chief's regulation that each bookstore can only purchase a maximum of 10,000 copies. In the 20 first-tier cities, only more than 20 bookstores in each city can get the goods.
Otherwise, the printed ones would not be enough to share.
Now the second batch has started to be printed without stopping.
But the worlds constructed by the two are different. "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" is more idealistic, while "Ghost Lights" is more close to life.
"'Grave Robbers' Chronicles' set a good precedent for 'Ghost Lights'. Bookstores are afraid of running out of stock."
"But, even though the bookstores wanted to ask for more this time, the editor-in-chief was already annoyed by the bookstores from other provinces. So, we can only give each bookstore a little."
"Congratulations, Teacher Ning."
Zhao Yang was extremely excited at this moment, but he found that even though he had said so much, Ningxia hadn't said a word.
He felt embarrassed at this moment and had forgotten that Ningxia was not talkative.
After a few more awkward chats, he hung up the phone.
Looking at the hung up phone, Zhao Yang smiled foolishly. Since she was beautiful and talented, it was natural for her to be a little aloof.
As long as the publishing rights can be signed to him, he would be willing to worship Ningxia as his ancestor.
Now Ningxia is her God of Wealth. No, she has to burn incense every day when she goes home.
Ningxia: “…”
Bolan Book Publishing House signed two popular novels in succession, "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" and "Ghost Lights the Lamp". During this period, the entire publishing house was very happy. The novels sold well and they all received bonuses.
But at this time,
Other publishing houses were wailing.
The book "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" is still selling well now, and now "Ghost Lights the Lamp" is out.
In particular, "Ghost Lights the Lamp" is the originator of tomb-robbing novels. Before the novel was published, the publicity began in an overwhelming manner.
Now that the physical book of "Ghost Lights Up the Lamp" has come out, all the promotional advertisements in major bookstores have been replaced with this one.
This also indirectly squeezed the publicity resources of other novels.
It would be strange if other publishing houses could be so angry.
Who in the publishing circle doesn’t envy Bo Ran’s luck these days?
In addition to luck, many people in the industry also know the relationship between Zhao Yang and the deputy editor-in-chief of Liunian Publishing House. It can only be said that having a relationship is good.
At that time, many people thought that it was probably luck that Bolan Books signed "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" and that Yao Yuncai had made the effort.
However, some people are puzzled as to how Bolan Book Publishing House was able to obtain the publishing rights of "Ghost Lighting the Lamp" despite being surrounded by other major publishing houses.
I don’t know when Zhao Yang got in touch with the author of “Ghost Lighting the Lamp”.
After all, all the major publishing houses have searched the online novel circle, but no one can contact the landlady.
This is not just a matter of luck and connections.
When "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" switched to Qidian, the publishing circle mocked the author of "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" for being ignorant of the consequences.
And the starting point was already in such a dead state, the author of "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" still jumped in
Who would have thought that not only would he be revived in the blink of an eye, but he would also become the leader in the online literature world.
I also think that Liunian Novel Network is incompetent. Such a novel that makes money for the website is just thrown away.
Not only did he do bad things, but in the end he was exchanged for one.
At that time, people in the industry thought that Liunian.com and the author of "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" would have a falling out, or even directly fight each other, and then everyone could take advantage of it and snatch the publishing rights of "Grave Robbers' Chronicles 2" from Expo Books. Who knew that they would just break up peacefully, without causing any waves, and once the publicity started, it also helped Qidian to block a wave of thunder.
At that time, everyone thought that once "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" switched to Qidian, it would no longer matter and everyone could finally compete fairly.
After all, "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" is like "The Lost Tomb", there are several parts, and you can make a lot of money by getting just one.
Who would have known that Bolan Books quietly signed "Ghost Lighting" right after that, and the industry only found out about it when it started promoting the book.
Inside Chongde Publishing House, the overall atmosphere is very depressing today.
Everyone in the editorial department was even more cautious and didn't dare to speak loudly for fear of offending their leaders.
The editors' group chat was buzzing with activity. "What kind of rotten luck did Bolan Books have? They've signed two of the most popular novels in the tomb-raiding world."
Now "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" and "Ghost Lights the Lantern" are regarded as the two classics in the tomb-robbing world.
"Even though Expo Books isn't publishing any books this year, they're still making a ton of money with just these two books."
“Speaking of making a killing, let’s sign Zhao Yang, the editor-in-chief of these two books.”
"It's fine if we can't compete with Youth Publishing House, but our publishing house is not much worse than Bo Lan Books, so how can we give Bo Lan Books a discount?"
This statement caused a lot of ridicule. "Xiao Feifei, are you talking nonsense? Almost? You really feel it."
"How can you say that after looking at the annual revenue? Not to mention this year, there's no comparison to previous years."
"I'm so jealous and envious."
"Who wouldn't be jealous? Even Youth Publishing House is incredibly jealous right now. My friend works there, and their editor-in-chief got mad more than once because they didn't sign the book 'Grave Robbers' Chronicles'."
"Today I saw that 'Grave Robbers' sold out on the first day of release. I was so envious that my eyes were red."
Out of stock? Many people don’t know about this yet, after all, everyone is at work today.
"Xiao Wang, tell me what happened?"
The boy called Xiao Wang looked around and didn't see the editor-in-chief. He quickly replied in the group chat, "It's because the novel has covered all the first-tier cities this time, so there are not enough copies. I heard that some bookstores only managed to grab a thousand or even five hundred copies."
"Look, it's sold out in just one day."
"But this time there's a special bookstore. It has a full 100,000 volumes. It seems to be called... Yuebing Bookstore."
"It seems this place is related to Book Expo."
"Other bookstores are out of stock, so this one is the only one that's selling it. This bookstore is going to make a fortune from this book."
The owner of Yuebing Bookstore is actually named Jingshan. Just as they expected, Jingshan was very happy to see how lively the store was.
Especially when I learned that other bookstores didn’t have much stock, my happiness level doubled.
Of course, I was able to get so much this time because I asked Zhao Yang for help.
The last time I helped so much, the store was almost lost. Of course, the editor-in-chief also knew that Yuebing Bookstore helped last time, so he agreed without much explanation.
