Society is a melting pot for training people.

Here you can refine into steel and become more tenacious.

At the same time, society is also a vanity fair full of all kinds of temptations.

Here you can form a party for selfishness and selfishness!

If we talk about who is the happiest and most painful on the day "Dragon Race" goes on sale, then it must be the owners of bookstores all over the country.

How can anyone be both happy and miserable at the same time, isn't this a contradiction? In fact, the owners of these physical bookstores are happy that the first batch of "Dragon Race" that came back is almost sold out without exception, and the profits they earn range from three to five months to as many as a year or so. It's an exaggeration. They put the published works of other not-so-famous authors in their brick-and-mortar bookstores for sale. They wouldn't know how happy they would be if they could sell all of them without pressing the warehouse.

You know, under normal circumstances, the publication of a work is basically after 0:00 in the morning, and the first batch of consumer readers have already ordered online. The only thing he can do is grab some of the leftovers from the online bookstore, just like Li Chungang, who has a huge number of readers who are willing to help him, so there will be such a rare "grand event" in a year.

This is exactly where these brick-and-mortar bookstore owners are in great pain. Making money is as easy as bending down to pick it up on the ground, but they can’t bend down, and then they have to watch their colleagues bend down frequently to pick up money. , but I can't do anything!

So soon, physical bookstores all over the country suddenly discovered a fact: almost all the first batch of "Dragon Race" that was first printed were sold out!

Anyone who hears this news will inevitably take a deep breath!

The news that 60 million copies of "Dragon Race" was printed for the first time was the data that Manjinghua Publishing Company had already announced to the outside world when it was promoting the book. I don’t know how many colleagues in the publishing industry ridiculed and ridiculed at that time. You must know that this first printing data is not even comparable to the famous "Swords in the Snow" at that time.

But the reality gave these people a loud slap in the face, and it was the kind that would not spare the right cheek after the left cheek was slapped.

Do you think the first print of 60 million copies is already the limit? No! Far from it, as long as you are not blind, you will know that there are urgent reports from almost all over the country, and a large number of readers and fans are anxiously waiting to buy "Dragon Race".

"You said you are a loyal fan of Zhichun Zhigang Reader?"

"You're a Kiel without Dragon Clan!"

"You said you are willing to support Zhichun Zhigang?"

"You didn't even buy "Dragon Race" and you said Kiel!"

"You said you like Zhichun Zhigang's works very much?"

"I didn't even watch "Dragon Family" and you talked about Keel!"

"..."

Almost at the same time, most of Li Chungang's readers were discussing the topic of "Dragon Race". Tell me how you can participate in it if you haven't even bought the book yet.

Some small bookstores in some places have nothing to do with it, they can only call the sales department of Manjinghua Publishing Company over and over again, either the phone is busy or they are in the middle of a call, and when they finally get connected, all they get are the sweet voice of the customer service lady, What they are already asking the printing factory to print urgently, what will contact you as soon as the printing is available, etc... But when you further ask the specific time and when it will be your turn after the stock is available, no Sorry, the answer is "don't know".

And some have some business contacts with Manjinghua Publishing Company, such as Xinhua Bookstore Group.

"Mr. Ouyang, so many branches of our group across the country are calling the group headquarters to urge when they can deliver the goods. I have no choice but to call you personally to ask when you will deliver the goods. ah?"

Ouyang Xiao is the deputy general manager in charge of publishing and sales of Manjinghua Publishing Company.

At this time, he also had a splitting headache from the phone calls from those partners.

As for the small thought of using power for personal gain at the beginning, he couldn't raise it a bit, because all the people behind who could call him directly were all he, a deputy general manager, couldn't afford to offend!

If you offend the Xinhua Bookstore Group, think about how many branches and franchise stores they have all over the country. If you give an order and don't put the works published by your publishing house on the shelves, it will be nothing more than a loss for them The income is equivalent to a bolt from the blue for the publishing company. Just like the relationship between the film producer and the theater chain, if the film production is completed, if the theater chain does not release it for you, no matter how good-looking and sophisticated the content of the movie you make, the audience will not be there. Saw it in the cinema.

It's not just the Xinhua Bookstore group that is urging, other stationery and book giants such as Orange Light Group are also urging.

In the past, Ouyang Xiao would visit these groups one by one with a shy old face to promote the works published by his company. Faced with all kinds of provocative cynicism, he had to laugh along with him the whole time, and he had to give up his talents such as how much profit he had every time. Let the other party agree to come down.

But every time it is Li Chungang's turn to publish works, the whole situation should prove a sentence: "Feng Shui turns around, thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi!"

It was as if the whole situation had been completely reversed. He could often straighten his back and allow others to offer all kinds of amazingly favorable conditions that were unheard of in ordinary times!

They clearly know that "Chungang's product must be a high-quality product", and Manjinghua Publishing Company was the first to read the content of "Dragon Race", and they know exactly what this book is like, so why did they choose only slightly conservatively when they first printed it? 60 million copies, and then only 10 to 20 million in the follow-up printing?

The answer is simple, they just want to create an illusion that "Dragon Race" is very scarce, and then unknowingly make both the seller and the buyer feel a great sense of tension.

No one understands the truth that rare things are valuable, just like water in the desert.

Ouyang Xiaolian responded: "Mr. Meng, the printing factories that have cooperative relations with our company are all printing at the same time, and none of the machines is idle, let alone printing other works. The first batch of printing will be added tomorrow. After it's installed, I'll have the nearest printing factory send it to you directly, do you think so? Is three million copies enough?"

"What is three million enough? I give one point to so many franchise stores all over the country. The average amount that each can get is less than 10,000 copies. I don't care about anything else, but you have to make sure that we are the first! Got one!"

If a bookstore lacks some popular best-selling works for a long time, it is estimated that many consumers will never come to the door after asking once or twice.

Stabilizing old customers and developing new customers is the only rule of bookstore management!

If you put yourself in the shoes and think about it, you can understand that if you choose to buy from a physical bookstore because you don’t want to wait for the delivery time of the online bookstore, but you don’t have this book, you don’t have that one either.

So next time, next time, are you willing to continue wasting time?

With this time-wasting effort, I am afraid that all the books ordered in the online bookstore will be delivered home!
