"Chief Editor Shi, this data is actually barely acceptable!”On this day, in the chief editor's office, Yan Xiaokang specially found Zheng Shi Chuanfeng and said,"But the problem is…this is a book that you signed for 80 yuan per thousand words. Isn't this sales a little too inconsistent with the price?”
Yan Xiaokang had just received the sales figures for " Those Incidents in the Ming Dynasty " on the first day. After it was released, 73 copies were sold in Chengdu. This sales was not bad for a new novel…but behind it was the price of 80 yuan per 1,000 words!
This price and this sales volume didn't match.
Outside the office, many people quietly came over to listen to the commotion. When they heard the two chief editors 'confrontation, they were very keen to join in the fun.
At the same time, they were discussing:
"Chief Editor Shi, 80 yuan per 1,000 words this time. Such a high price for 73 copies.”
"Yes, Chief Editor Shi is in a difficult position to explain to President Wu this time. President Wu has the greatest trust in Chief Editor Shi.”
"Not necessarily. After all, this book has only been on sale for the first day.”Someone retorted.
In the office, Shi Chuanfeng also retorted,"Chief Editor Yan, you're a little too anxious. This book has just been released, and Li Chencan is a newcomer. Do you think his book will be like some famous authors?”
Shi Chuanfeng's words sounded somewhat self-righteous, but in Yan Xiaokang's case, it was only exchanged for an unfathomable smile."Oh? Was that so? However, one book on the first day was usually enough to reflect the sales of a book…Moreover, if Chief Editor Shi was so confident, why did you wait until the afternoon to come over? Isn't it because the sales of the book are too low and they're too embarrassed to see us?”
" You..." Shi Chuanfeng paused."Chief Editor Yan, please don't go too far!”
Although he said this in a loud voice, everyone knew that this fellow was already somewhat strong on the outside but weak on the inside.
Shi Chuanfeng knew that the first day's sales were 73 copies, so he felt that it was not good to meet these people in the morning. He hid at home and pretended to be sick, only coming over in the afternoon.
Yan Xiaokang, as his old rival for a few years, had a deep understanding of Shi Chuanfeng. Naturally, he knew what this guy was up to.
Now, Yan Xiaokang exposed Shi Chuanfeng mercilessly. Thus, the exposed Shi Chuanfeng jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
To be honest, the sales of " Those Things About the Ming Dynasty " on the first day had disappointed him too. Because of this disappointment, he had to hide at home. But now that he was exposed by his old rival, he could not get off the stage.
Yan Xiaokang saw that Shi Chuanfeng was already angry out of humiliation and chuckled."Alright, Chief Editor Shi. Three days later, the book will be moved. I wonder what position 'Those Incidents in the Ming Dynasty' will be moved to?”
When the people outside the room heard Yan Xiaokang's despicable voice, some of them gloated over his misfortune, while others sighed for Shi Chuanfeng. This time, Chief Editor Shi was about to have a storm!
"Chief Editor Yan, please leave!"
Shi Chuanfeng was so angry that he saw stars. This was the only way…
Yan Xiaokang liked to see Shi Chuanfeng like this... He had been so trusting of a young man, and now he had fallen for it, right?!
Yan Xiaokang swaggered out of the office, intending to be inspected by the admiring gazes of his colleagues outside. However, at this moment, a person rushed in from outside.
This person was a staff member who was in charge of communicating between the publishing house and the major bookstores. He was in charge of communicating between the publishing house and the major bookstores.
"Xiao Mi, what are you doing? Panicking?" Yan Xiaokang had just walked out of Shi Chuanfeng's office and was now speaking to him with the dignity of an editor-in-chief.
Shi Chuanfeng, who was in the office, was still sulking. Yan Xiaokang had gone too far! It was so excessive that he couldn't stand it.
How could this be? Even if he was a political enemy, he shouldn't have gone so far, right?
Shi Chuanfeng had no place to vent his anger.
Could it be that he had really seen wrongly? There was no possibility of " Those Incidents in the Ming Dynasty " becoming popular? But why was that book so attractive to him? One had to know that Shi Chuanfeng was also a person who had read countless papers.
But now, was he going to get angry at Li Chencan? No way. After all, the book was signed by him. Shi Chuanfeng did not have the habit of venting his anger on others.
At this moment, the person called Xiao Mi outside said to Yan Xiaokang breathlessly,""Chief Editor Yan, it's like this. There's a new book set that most bookstores have sold out. The bookstore asked me to take away the stock from the publishing house!”
There were usually not many new books in the bookstore, because too many would make things messy. The stock was limited, and they needed to communicate with the publishing house at any time...
"What book? Sold out? What happened?" Yan Xiaokang suddenly had an ominous feeling in his heart. He did not know where this feeling came from.
"It's 'Those Things in the Ming Dynasty'!”"This book is basically sold out today, so they told me to come over and get the book."”
" What?!" Yan Xiaokang felt as if he had been hit by a heavy stick. His vision turned black, and the world spun!
Just now, he had used " Those Things in the Ming Dynasty " to ridicule Shi Chuanfeng. Who knew that in just a short while," Those Things in the Ming Dynasty " would have such a dramatic change?
The surrounding employees also looked at Xiao Mi with their mouths wide open. They could not believe it either.
"How is that possible?" "Didn't 'Those Things in the Ming Dynasty' only sell seventy-three copies yesterday?" Yan Xiaokang asked. How could it be sold out today? There were at least four to five hundred books in the bookstore, right?”
Xiaomi clapped her hands." Aiya, that's what the bookstore owners say too. Yesterday, the sales of a book were mediocre. I don't know what's wrong with it today, but the sales suddenly soared! They couldn't stop him! The highest bookstore had sold 88 books by noon today. Don't you think it's strange?”
Yan Xiaokang's vision darkened…Are you playing with me?
At that moment, he felt as if all the employees around him were watching him as a joke!
Just now, he had used this matter to attack and mock Shi Chuanfeng, but now, things had suddenly changed drastically. He was the one who was going to suffer humiliation!
Yan Xiaokang's face slowly turned red, and goosebumps appeared on his body because of the awkwardness. He frowned, knowing that this matter could no longer be suppressed!
As expected, the surrounding employees all had surprised and strange expressions.
"Did 'Those Things About the Ming Dynasty sold well today?”At this moment, the office door was pushed open. Shi Chuanfeng stood there with a smile on his face. At this moment, he felt like a farmer who had turned over a new leaf.
Yan Xiaokang's face darkened. He felt that his karma had arrived.
