Three days later, Wednesday.
At noon, Mo Fan bade farewell to his parents and set off for the Imperial Capital.
"Flying is really enjoyable. Moreover, the speed is amazing. If we were to take the train, we would have to arrive at least tomorrow morning…" Mo Fan sighed as he got off the plane. He had never even taken a plane in his previous life.
"You are…I'm not a giant, Mr. Mo Fan?”
At the exit, a friend holding a name tag looked at the young Mo Fan suspiciously.
"If the person you're waiting for is Mo Fan, then it's me..."
Mo Fan was still a little depressed. He had tried his best to act mature. Unexpectedly, he was still considered very young.
"Haha, as expected of a young hero. My name is Liu Wei, CEO Liang's secretary. Nice to meet you!"
"Hello, hello."
The two of them exchanged pleasantries and got into Lu Fei's car, heading straight for Lu Fei Bookstore.
"Mr. Mo, please wait a moment. CEO Liang is in a meeting and will be right over.”
Liu Wei brought Mo Fan to a lounge.
Mo Fan took a sip of tea and asked Liu Wei,""From the moment you entered the company until now, I noticed that all the employees in your company have serious expressions on their faces. This doesn't seem like a normal day at work.”
"Mr. Mo, not only are you good at writing, but you also have a good eye.”
Liu Wei looked at Mo Fan with admiration," You're right, it's a little troublesome."”
"What's wrong?" Mo Fan asked.
"Actually, the trouble this time is related to Mr. Mo's Celestial Eradication.”
"What's wrong?"
Mo Fan was confused. What did this have to do with him?
"Do you still remember the Qidian Bookstore that contacted you previously?”
"Qidian Bookstore. There seems to be such a thing. However, the other party's attitude was bad and I rejected it. Why? Could it be that Qidian Bookstore wants to give you some trouble because your company published my book?”Mo Fan frowned again.
Liu Wei nodded with a bitter smile.
To him, he really didn't know if publishing Celestial Bane was a good or bad thing.
On the one hand, it was indeed an opportunity. On the other hand, the challenges they were facing now were too troublesome.
Initially, he thought that Qidian Bookstore was just causing a little trouble. However, he did not expect that this time, they were actually serious.
This time, Qidian Bookstore had even used the connections they had accumulated in the publishing industry for decades to completely ban Celestial Bane from being listed in the major bookstores in China.
Fortunately, there were a few strong bookstores in the capital, and Qidian Bookstore could not do anything to them.
Otherwise, Mo Fan might not even have a place to attend the signing event.
Of course, if it wasn't for the Qidian Bookstore, they wouldn't have considered holding this signing event.
After all, even though Mo Fan's Celestial Bane was not bad, he was just a new author and was not very famous in the author circle.
In the words of the online literature world, he had yet to cultivate a divinity.
Under such circumstances, who knew how many die-hards there were. It would be depressing enough if not many people came to support the signing event.
This time, in order to boost Jade Dynasty's reputation, and for the future of Lu Fei Bookstore, they had no choice but to invite Mo Fan.
Perhaps they were hoping that Mo Fan's readers on the Internet would be more supportive.
After chatting for about half an hour, the boss of Lu Fei Bookstore, Liang Yongfeng, finally appeared after the meeting.
"Could this be Brother Mo?”
Although Liang Yongfeng and Mo Fan were very familiar with each other during the GG, Liang Yongfeng was very polite when they first met.
"Is this Brother Liang Yongfeng?”
Mo Fan imitated Liang Yongfeng's words and said.
"Hahaha…"
The three of them burst into laughter.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Big Brother Liang wants to apologize to Little Brother Mo. I wanted to pick you up, but I really couldn't leave just now. I just finished my meeting. Let's go, let's go, Brother Mo must be hungry. Liu Wei, go book a private room."”
.......
"Come, Brother Mo, I'll drink a cup of wine as punishment for not picking you up earlier.”
Liang Yongfeng was born in the grassroots and had fought his way up. It could be said that he started from scratch.
It was indeed not easy to manage Lu Fei Bookstore to such a scale without any background or connections. With just a few words, the atmosphere became quite good. Mo Fan knew that it was impossible for him to achieve such a level of smoothness.
There was a little admiration in his eyes for Liang Yongfeng. At least this person was tactful and knew how to do things.
The three of them ate, drank, and chatted. They would occasionally approach Mo Fan's work, Celestial Bane.
Of course, Mo Fan knew what they meant. On one hand, they liked the book. On the other hand, they probably wanted to build a relationship with the author.
In this world, which author didn't like his readers to discuss his works?
Of course, other than this, Liang Yongfeng also gave a piece of good news when they were chatting."Brother Mo, I think you're right about one thing. 50,000 copies of our first print run is too little.”
"It's only been a few days, why is Brother Liang so emotional?”
Mo Fan was slightly surprised.
"Sigh, it's all my fault. I misjudged Brother Mo's ability. You might not know this, but when we released the news of Celestial Bane's pre-orders, we had already received 30,000 pre-orders from China.”
In this world where selling 30,000 copies was already considered a bestseller, it was indeed a small miracle for a pre-order to reach 30,000 copies.
Moreover, this was a work of a newcomer. If it wasn't for the fact that he had found out about the 30,000 sets of works during the meeting, Liang Yongfeng would have been worried to death.
One had to know that Qidian Press was dozens of times more powerful than Lu Fei Bookstore. If they were to come at them with all their might, Lu Fei Bookstore would definitely suffer.
Now that there were 30,000 pre-orders online, the situation was slowly changing.
Perhaps, it was just as Mo Fan had said, Jade Dynasty could sell more than a hundred thousand sets, or even two hundred thousand sets.
If that was the case, even if it was the threat of Qidian Bookstore, they could still resist it with all their might.
