The largest bookstore in Chengdu is only five kilometers away from China Resources 24th City where Chen Xing lives, and it is called Xinhua Wenxuan Bookstore.

There are very few bookstores that are as big as libraries or supermarkets, and there are even fewer places where people line up to check out when buying books. In today's society, there are only two situations where this happens. One is to buy books and get something of higher value.

For example, celebrity recommendations, LV canvas bags, etc.

Another situation is when the school requires students to buy a certain book, and then parents queue up in the bookstore.

An employee of the bookstore is sorting the books that have been turned over by customers, looking at the checkout position from time to time.

"Who is this Chen Xing? Why can a travel book sell so well?"

He didn't understand.

As someone who has never seen Chen Xing’s videos or paid attention to photography, he can’t imagine that a photographer’s travel notes can actually make people line up to buy them. Not all such books are written by photographers, travelers.

Of?

Why haven’t I seen this kind of book become popular before?

And it is written about France. There are a lot of French travel books in their bookstore. If this book called Chen Xing is not placed on the best promotional bookshelf, but is placed together with other travel books, then it will definitely be in the bookstore.

Next to this new book I saw a large pile of French travel notes.

His colleague said: "Look at that cover."

"What happened to the cover?"

On the cover, there is a man holding a railing and looking at the Eiffel Tower in the distance. The quality of the cover is very good, so this photo is also very high-quality.

"Oh, just figure it out yourself."

The young salesperson was confused.

At this time, several young and beautiful female high school students noisily passed by him holding books. One of the girls said: "I heard that one of the five books in the first batch will give away Chen Xing's photo for free. The probability is still

It’s very big, we bought twelve copies in total, and one will always come out.”

As for how they divide one piece, I don’t know.

Seeing this, the young salesperson immediately understood.

This person named Chen Xing must be a young star. Look at the people who come to buy books. Most of them are girls. Those boys must be buying for goddesses and girlfriends. This makes sense.<

/p>

What kind of photographer or traveler? It must be a character.

He despises such people the most. They have no works and only know how to trick these little girls to pay for their fame. Just like the autobiography written by the little fresh meat last year, some rich women even bought it in their bookstore at once.

A thousand copies, just to help the idol increase sales.

"Bah!" He said loudly.

He doesn't even have a girlfriend at the age of 30, but a star like him has countless girls whose names he doesn't even know spending unnecessary money on him. He's really jealous.

His eyes were obviously unhappy.

There was a man wearing a mask nearby who frowned when he saw this scene, touched the mask, and stepped forward and asked: "Brother, I see that everyone in the queue is buying this book. It should be good. Why?"

Are you a bit disdainful? Have you read this book?"

The salesperson was startled and looked back at the person.

He is a young man.

Huh, okay, okay, it would be bad if those NC fans saw me licking their brother. If it gets too big, I might lose my job.

"No, no, I haven't seen it."

"Why is that? By the way, I am a self-media person. I heard that this book has been selling very well in the past two days, so I came here to take a look. Brother, do you mind if I interview you? Do you have time now?

”

"I can take you to our leader."

People who work here have to undergo pre-job training every year, and they cannot refuse any interview that can stimulate book sales. If there are any who are really undecided or the other person's background is too big, then take them to find someone who is higher than themselves.

level.

If you don't get caught spitting, then it doesn't matter if you say a few nice words.

But what he did just now was really not in good taste, and now he is embarrassed. How could he accept an interview on the spot?

"No, no, no, I'm just asking a few simple questions." The man in the mask said.

This is Chen Xing coming out of home.

After knowing that the turmoil of the past few days had no impact on him, he came to the largest bookstore in Chengdu and sat and read for a long time. Looking at the speed of their sales, he could predict that the sales of his books should be very good.

Travel writing is a niche genre, and not many people like to read it.

It is different from mainstream novels. Novels can be purchased by a large number of people for many days in a row. When word of mouth spreads and the reputation increases, sales may even rise against the trend.

Travel notes are different from novels. They sell well in the first two days because of hot searches and fans. After that, the sales trend will definitely not be as good as that of mainstream novels.

When I came here today, I saw that there were still people queuing up with their own books. Chen Xing's mood relaxed immediately. While looking at the Chinese version of the "2022 Master Photography Works Collection" in his hand, he observed who was buying it today.

My own book.

I happened to see the unconvinced expression of the salesperson holding his book, so I came up to ask.

"Okay, guest, what's your problem?"

"What do you think of the author of this book?"

"I'm just a salesperson, I don't know much about this author, I'm sorry."

"Have you read this book?"

"Sorry, the sales of this book have been very good these days. We are all very busy and have not had time to read this book yet. However, judging from the feedback from customers, this book is an excellent book. If

If you haven’t bought it yet, I recommend you buy a copy and take a look.”

It's all empty talk.

Chen Xing touched his chin and said, "Then why did you just..."

"Hey!"

The salesperson became anxious, looked around, and whispered: "Okay, okay, let me tell you, you won't show your face in this interview, right?"

Chen Xing is used to wearing a miniature action camera on his body. Regardless of whether the camera is turned on or not, the quality of the images captured is more reliable than someone finding that he can produce videos out of thin air without any equipment.

Chen Xing shook his head and said: "Don't worry, it will be an oral interview."

"Okay." He looked at it again, and then said, "I'm just unhappy with those celebrities. Many of the people here are high school students. Why do they buy travel books? They don't want to go to France, right? At my age

It took a long time to save seventy yuan when I was there."

"Celebrity?" Chen Xing didn't expect this to be the reason.

"Yeah, in recent years more and more new stars have behaved like this. I wrote an autobiography that was completely made up, and after promoting it on my Weibo, countless girls bought it. I'm really, ugh,

I don’t feel comfortable watching such a scene, so I’m sorry, guest.”

"It doesn't matter, but why are you sure Chen Xing is a star?"

"I heard someone say that it is a hot search topic and has millions of fans. What is it if it is not a celebrity?"

He took a copy of "Travel is a Life" and said to Chen Xing.

"Look at this star's appearance, this hairstyle, this face, this figure, this profile..."

He could go on and on. Although he doesn't like the current celebrities, he has to say that this cover shot is really good. It shows a star with a poet-like temperament, and only half of his profile is

Just a face can kill a lot of idol stars.

But when he mentioned this profile, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

These eyebrows, these eyes?

He looked at Chen Xing.

Chen Xing looked at him, even looking forward to it.

Everyone likes to hear good things. Some flatterers can even get promoted and make a fortune just by saying good things to their leaders. Chen Xing is no exception. He hates trolls and likes to praise his fans. If there is anything more satisfying than reading fan comments

The thing must be that when you go out and hear people who don’t know your identity praise yourself.

"What happened to the side face?"

"This guest, what is your surname?"

"What's your surname? My surname is Chen. You'd better go ahead and say it."

"You are Chen Xing!"

He suddenly exclaimed loudly.

Damn it.

Why don't you just complain about it? You actually spit out the real person. Damn it, will my job be lost? If he tells this matter to his fans, will he be bullied by the Internet?

It’s so scary, how could it be me?
