Chapter 40: Many Channels

Zhang Chu got up early in the morning, and the Internet inside the old house was quite smooth. He sat under the jujube tree in the yard, blowing the morning breeze, connecting his mobile phone to the wireless.

He was a human being in his two lives, and this work was still the first time he published it in his life. He wanted to see the paper version quickly.

But now it’s pretty good to check out the electronic version. Zhang Chu logged into his account and spent RMB 2.99 to buy this issue of "Year Reasoning" magazine.

The magazine in front of me is not ranked high in Huawei's official mobile phone bookstore. It swipes down the ranking list and refreshes several pages before finding its ranking.

"This cover is quite touching, but unfortunately it's not my novel."

Zhang Chu also contributed some sales to himself. He clicked on the purchased and downloaded e-book. After finding the catalog, he found that his article "Sherlock Detective" was actually on the first page!

Writing novels and reading novels are two completely different experiences. Now Zhang Chu treats himself completely as a reader and reads it slowly bit by bit.

"Is this really what I wrote? Is it so well?"

There are two different writers in the world. When they look back at their works, one of them will feel that they have written too poorly, and it is better to rewritten it; the other is to be amazed at the fact that they have written too well, and they will never be able to write the same content as they say.

Zhang Chu is actually a little unconfident. Most of the first chapter of "Detective Sherlock" is actually counted as his own works, and it is realized by describing and adapting TV series.

The help provided by the system was only to allow him to keep checking the BBC TV series, and did not give him the word selection and sentence formation, nor did he generate novels by himself.

Just as Zhang Chu was sitting on the rattan chair and thinking, Zhang Bowen also walked out with his sleepy eyes.

Zhang Bowen yawned and asked, "Didn't sleep so early?"

"You can't sleep either. I just read it online, and everyone said that your novel is very ordinary."

Today is the day when the magazine "Time Reasoning" is launched. Both father and son are very concerned, and neither of them wants to receive bad reviews.

After hearing his son's words, Zhang Bowen was not surprised, but instead sneered, "I had already checked the Internet before I came out. There were not many people talking about it on the Internet, so don't lie to me."

Zhang Chu always enjoyed talking back to his father, and he shrugged helplessly, "Okay, it turns out that you are also a modern person."

Unlike other works that participated in the fan essay contest of Sherlock Sherlock and "Basic Deduction" both have a trend towards long-term development. It is not just about writing a chapter or writing a single story.

If the reader’s reputation response is not good, it will definitely affect the viewing of the Time of Reasoning Magazine. Not to mention whether the subsequent content can be published, it is a problem even if it can continue to be serialized!

With the thoughts in mind, both the father and son couldn't sleep. At this moment, they were sitting in the courtyard with big eyes.

"You said that the magazines have started to be sold today, why no one commented on them? I have no idea whether they are good or bad." Zhang Bowen was very worried. He also planned to forward the electronic magazine link to his circle of friends, but he did not dare to act rashly now.

If the evaluation is not good, forwarding will only make those people laugh.

Zhang Chu refreshed the comment section of his official bookstore on his mobile phone. It was still bare at this moment, so he comforted him and said, "It's still early. Who would have gotten the magazine so early and left comments after reading it. Maybe there were a lot of comments at noon, otherwise let's go out for a walk?"

It’s not a big deal to keep holding your phone to refresh. It’s better to go out and relax and divert your attention.

...

Two flowers bloom, each with one branch.

When Zhang Chu and his son were walking slowly in the fields outside Longsha Town towards the sun, the staff of the Time Reasoning Editorial Department had already started to work and check in one after another.

Liu Qiao came very early today. She turned on her computer just after eight o'clock and monitored relevant data in real time. She didn't know if the large-scale publicity a few days ago was useful.

"Sister Liu, you came so early."

Wan Yuan drank the last bite of soy milk in the cup. He came over half an hour in advance, but unexpectedly someone had already started working.

"I woke up very early today. Anyway, I'm fine, so I just avoided the peak period of the subway." Liu Qiao said without looking back. She was checking the relevant sales.

Apart from those readers who subscribe to the whole year in one go, and subtract from readers who have booked July issues on the official website or Tianmao and Dangdang official stores, the number of new additions on the Internet is actually not large.

However, the sales in the bookstores of Huawei, Google Store, and Apple Store are good. In addition, the Year Reasoning also has its own mobile app, but it is very simple.

Although Amazon has entered China, the e-reader Kindle is the dominant player and has a very large market share, it is obviously not suitable for China's national conditions.

Many people are used to reading directly on their mobile phones and do not need to carry a reader like Kindle. Even though the reader is very affordable, consumers think it is not convenient to carry a product specifically for reading, so Amazon's e-book downloads are actually quite limited.

There are many readers in China, and the number of users using digital reading has reached 300 to 400 million, most of whom are reading on mobile phones.

Among the many mobile apps that can download magazine e-books, the stores that come with various mobile phones are obviously the highest-selling ones.

For example, Apple's ibook, Xiaomi Bookstore comes with its own Xiaomi mobile phone, Huawei Reading, Samsung Reading, and the contract machines of the three major operators include Mobile, China Unicom, Telecom Tianyi Bookstore, etc.

In addition, Douban Reading, Duoguan Reading, two paid book download giants, as well as places such as QQ Bookstore and Zhangyue Bookstore, all provide download services.

So the calculation of this sales volume is quite complicated, and there are too many channels!

Today's journals and magazines are not just about subscribing through postal services. Roadside sales are as simple as that, and online paid downloads have become the norm.

The other party’s sales figures cannot be immediately known to the magazine, and it is only possible to wait for the corresponding staff to pass the data over.

However, judging from the current data, sales have increased significantly compared to before, especially the number of online searches is not the same!

"It seems that the top scorer in the college entrance examination is quite attractive. The number of people searching for Sherlock's Detective actually exceeded 800,000 times. It would be great if so many search volumes could turn into sales."

Liu Qiao also knew that this was a delusion. If "Detective Sherlock" does not charge for it, it would not be difficult to read more than one million people.
