Chapter 266: Reputation Remains
As expected, the poem "Qinyuanchun" became popular on the Internet.
Signatures such as "We are schoolmates" can be seen everywhere, and the phrase "I am like dirt to a marquis in the past" has been recognized by countless students and used as their motto.
The poem "I am sad and lonely, asking the vast earth, who is the master of the ups and downs" has been posted on WeChat Moments by countless successful people to show their status as successful people.
But it's no wonder -
Since the Song Dynasty, it is rare to see such high-quality poems.
Even the unofficial organization Longguo Poetry Association has given a high evaluation of this poem, saying that it has a profound intention, is heroic and magnificent, and takes into account the unruly and high-spirited youth. It is a rare masterpiece in modern times.
And Luoyang has also gained a lot of meager popularity because of this poem.
At this moment, it has reached more than 80 million followers, and it is not impossible to exceed 100 million followers.
However, considering the population of Dragon Country, there are many people who follow Weibo with more than 100 million followers, so this number is not exaggerated. If we really talk about popularity, Luoyang is probably equivalent to a second-tier celebrity.
However, the number of followers on Weibo has always been relatively vague, and few people can tell how many of them are active fans.
——————————————
In the following days, Liu Qin continued to be busy with the album, and Luoyang also kept a low profile after the opening ceremony, burying himself in writing every day to prepare for the next issue of "Ta Jiang Hu".
This magazine is his only real industry at present.
A lot of profits are also generated by this magazine.
Because Liu Qin did not leave the notice and disappeared from the public again, Amber, the agent, also had some free time.
So Hua Qi handed the task of building the website to Amber. Under Amber's urging, the official website of "Ta Jiang Hu" was finally successfully built and opened to the public.
On the same day, the number of registered users of the official website of "Ta Jiang Hu" reached 6 million, and this number is still increasing at a high speed!
On September 20, the sales of "Ta Jiang Hu" finally began to decline, which means that the market is close to saturation. However, at this moment, "Ta Jiang Hu" has sold 18 million copies, becoming the unshakable leader of martial arts magazines.
The industry is all shouting that the wolf is coming!
The five classics of Gu Long have been released in succession, and their influence has become more and more far-reaching.
Other types of magazines can't help but be tempted by the consumption power of the martial arts market, but they also know that the fundamental reason for the success of "Ta Jiang Hu" is the release of Luoyang's five wonderful masterpieces.
Luoyang has become the most powerful magazine-selling teenager in the martial arts novel industry.
On September 25, the national sales of "Ta Jiang Hu" have reached 20 million copies, and the market is completely saturated.
Seeing that the time is almost right, Luoyang officially announced that the first issue of "Ta Jiang Hu" will be available on the official website for netizens to pay to read.
This is not a trivial matter, because many people really don't like to buy magazines. They would rather wait for the official opening of online reading and read it later than others.
Why did Luoyang's "Seven Weapons" finally get such a high number of votes?
It is not the sales of the physical magazine, but the effect brought by opening online reading. In fact, many people knew Luoyang after reading "Seven Weapons" on the Internet.
In other words...
The number of people who are willing to wait for a while to read books online is actually many times higher than those who buy magazines. After all, buying magazines is not only troublesome, but also expensive.
Paid reading online is cheaper, and there is more room for choice.
In other words, this marketing method is a bit like the distribution process of some movies in the previous life -
that is, let the movie be released in major theaters across the country first, and then wait for the people who are willing to go to the cinema to watch movies to digest them, and then release the movie discs to make another sum of money.
There is no doubt that there are definitely many more people who buy discs than those who go to the cinema to watch movies.
However, the bulk of the income is still when the movie is released. The discs afterwards are more about expanding the national popularity and influence of the movie.
The distribution of Longguo Magazine adopts such a strategy. Of course, this strategy can only be realized in a legitimate country like Longguo. It is undoubtedly a joke to adopt this method in the previous life.
On September 26, the number of registered users of "Ta Jiang Hu" began to grow even faster.
Countless readers who had not yet purchased "Ta Jiang Hu" left messages after reading the electronic version:
"I have always wanted to buy a copy of "Ta Jiang Hu". I heard that the stories in it are very exciting, but I have never had the chance because I am busy with work. Finally, the official website has opened it for online reading. After reading five stories, I am very excited. Please release the next issue soon!"
"I have always liked to read the electronic version, so I didn't buy the magazine. Today I finally got my wish. There is nothing much to say, just two words, exciting!"
"Please release the next issue quickly. I am looking forward to "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" Regarding the plot of the second volume, everyone, please tell us which masterpiece you like the most! "
"I like "The Sentimental Swordsman", but I can't tell who is the protagonist, A Fei or Li Xun Huan. Judging from the name, it seems to be A Fei? But Li Xun Huan's character design is too brilliant..."
"I can't wait to read the next issue. Don't ask me which one I like. I like every one of them, but I have a worry. Are you sure it won't be a mess with five consecutive releases?"
"It shouldn't be a mess. It would be a pity if it was! I'd rather Luo Shuai write slower!"
"Now you should call him Luo Dong. It is said that the profit of "Ta Jiang Hu" has far exceeded that of "Xia Ke Jiang Hu". Luo Dong has made great contributions!"
"I have always disliked literati getting involved in business affairs, because the heart of a writer is easily corrupted by the taste of money. Fortunately, these five works have shown me a different Luo Shuai."
"The most successful example of a literati running a magazine has been born. I wish I could catch Luo Shao now and force him to hand over the following plot!"
"Few magazines have so much content in a serial. Generally, the first paragraph of the serial is just a preliminary unveiling of the plot. "Ta Jiang Hu" has unfolded the plots of all five masterpieces. I guess Luo Shao also wants these masterpieces to quickly show their own style."
...
These readers are not wrong.
In order to stop the mouths of the gossipers and to beat the opponent in the sales of "Ta Jiang Hu".
In the five works serialized in the first issue of the magazine, Luo Yang wrote a lot of content and unfolded the plot.
Even with his typing speed, it still took so many days. You can imagine how conscientious the first issue of "Ta Jiang Hu" was. It had a rich word count and a similar price, which was different from other magazines that only gave a brief taste of the first issue.
This is probably one of the reasons why "Ta Jiang Hu" has high sales.
But Luoyang was helpless when it came to this.
Because no matter how classic a novel is, you can't see too much by just reading the first chapter.
So Luoyang could only unfold the plots of the five novels and make appropriate adjustments.
For example, in "Peerless Twins", Luoyang let Hua Wuque appear in advance, and in "Xiao Shiyilang", Luoyang also quickly introduced the plot to the main line. If you really copy it according to a dead brain, the beginning of the five consecutive works would not achieve such a shocking effect.
However, the harvest is also gratifying.
Luoyang once again demonstrated his excellent adaptation skills.
These five masterpieces have become more attractive after fine-tuning the plot.
The feedback from the magazine is evident, and the evaluation of the electronic version has made Luoyang very excited.
Luoyang has also made many fine-tunings to the contents of the second issue of the five works. Now everything is almost ready, just waiting for the arrival of October - the second issue of "Ta Jiang Hu" will be released soon.
(Just saw that Shu Yao classmate has also joined the alliance, thank you very much! Now I am dealing with thesis and defense at school, I will add more updates after I finish thesis...)
