Faced with the requests from the surging readers, Zhang Bowen was very satisfied.

This time, the reason why Hanlinxuan was able to squeeze in and out with those chain internet celebrity bookstores was that he relied on the name Zhang Chu!

"Zhang Chu is very busy studying now, so it is impossible for him to fly back to hold a signing party. This way, I will ask him to come back from Yanjing Express and then take it out in the store by random lottery. You have the chance to use shopping receipts, so how about this?"

As soon as the words were finished, the customers around him immediately shouted, and the originally quiet bookstore suddenly became extremely noisy!

"good!"

"That's how it's decided!"

"If I buy two sets, do I have to divide two orders for me?"

"What time is the lottery? What if someone takes mine?"

"Beautiful job, hahaha, I have hope of getting the signature book."

Zhang Bowen quickly calmed down these customers. He smiled and said, "Everyone should be careful. This lottery is a temporary decision I made, so there may be omissions in various conditions. But please don't worry, the 10 signature collections I promised will definitely be delivered. As long as consumers who go to Hanlinxuan Bookstore to make reservations in the past three days, they will hope to win the lottery, and will also give out some character posters. The lottery time will be set on the day when these pre-sale books arrive!"

He also had a sudden inspiration and directly regarded Zhang Chu as a lucky cat.

After hearing the commotion in front, the people behind the team all stood on tiptoe and looked forward and inquired.

"What are you saying just now? Why are you suddenly so excited?" Chen Xiaotian, who was standing behind the line, asked a young man who had just walked out curiously.

Everyone around them also listened with their ears to see what was going on.

The man was putting the receipt carefully in his wallet. After hearing the inquiry, he replied: "At our request just now, the bookstore owner agreed to ask Zhang Chu for ten sets of signature versions of "Soushen Ji" to draw. People who go to book in the past few days have a chance."

Chen Xiaotian was shocked. He stared at him and said, "Is it impossible? How could the owner of this bookstore get a signature book? It's not a forged one! Didn't Zhang Chu say it's difficult to hold a signing party just now? A reporter interviewed it last time. Now the unscrupulous merchants have no bottom line when promoting it!"

"Uh, buddy, you're afraid you don't know Hanlinxuan, right?" Song Xiong couldn't help laughing when he heard this statement.

The rest of the people in the long queue also covered their mouths and laughed. The laughter surprised Chen Xiaotian, "Isn't it just an ordinary bookstore? Is there any great support behind it?"

"This bookstore was run by Zhang Chu's father! Do you think Zhang Chu's father can get ten sets of autographed books?"

This tm was very embarrassed, Chen Xiaotian smiled embarrassedly: "So that's the case, no wonder! Then I should have lined up to buy it. I hope good luck will come."

He had just come here for an internship from another place, but he never thought about Zhang Chu's family. He just liked these works simply.

Song Xiong's words solved the customers' doubts and made Hanlin Xuan's attractiveness become more and more powerful!

Look, Chen Xiaotian immediately announced this good news in the post of Sou Shenji, which attracted envy, jealousy and hatred among netizens.

Someone even sent him a private message to him, could he help buy a set of "Soushen Ji" at Hanlinxuan Bookstore? On the one hand, it was to support Zhang Chu's bookstore, and on the other hand, it also wanted to get a signed book.

Before Zhang Chu became famous, he held the signing ceremony for "Detective Sherlock". At that time, not many people received the signature.

There are no such activities at all now, and there are more and more readers, but there are so few signed books that the prices are high in second-hand transfer markets such as Xianyu, and there are still many fakes!

Fortunately, Zhang Chu's calligraphy is good and very distinctive. Don't make it difficult to imitate it. You can find it by comparing it a little.

He has written several bestsellers in a row, and his readership has grown bigger and bigger.

The number of reposts of the Weibo post of Nanhai Publishing Company that reposted the lottery has exceeded 120,000, and it is still increasing continuously. In the absolute sense, there are too many monks and less porridge!

When the news spread that books can be booked in Hanlinxuan can participate in the lottery, almost all local readers in Jiangcheng flocked to him, which was so exhausted that Zhang Bowen was exhausted.

Everyone seemed to think that the probability of choosing 10 out of the 120,000 people was too small, so they came to Hanlinxuan to try their luck, and they all felt that the competition here was a little smaller.

Of course, more people prepare for it both ways. Not only did they book works in physical bookstores, but they also made reservations online.

For Zhang Chu's fans, they wish Hanlinxuan Bookstore was opened all over the country, so there was no need to envy Jiangcheng!

...

"How much did you say?"

Zhang Chu, who was basking in the sun downstairs of the community with Matcha, took off his sunglasses directly. His father called and said nothing about the number he said!

Zhang Bowen proudly showed off on the other end of the phone: "21,000 copies, absolutely right, we have calculated carefully. In the past three days, we almost didn't get tired of us, and we even invited several people to help."

"The numbers that Nanhai Publishing Company gave me feedback were said to be 180,000 pre-sale numbers on the Internet in three days, and 240,000 copies were pre-sale in physical bookstores. As a result, we Hanlinxuan accounted for 20,000 of them. It was a bit incredible!"

Due to the price of "Soushen Ji", I suffered a great loss in pre-sales, and only real readers and fans would choose to buy it.

Passers-by are discouraged at this price. You can still collect it by buying one by one. You can’t bear to spend so much money in one go.

What's more, many netizens have read the previous content, and they have followed the reading progress of Yuandian Chinese website to the contents of the second and third volumes!

I have spent money once, and I have spent money to buy the content I have read, and I feel a little lost.

At the same time, there are many online readers who don’t like to read physical books at all. Anyway, you can read them online. At the very least, you can buy electronic versions, and all six volumes are also very cost-effective.

Zhang Bowen was a little surprised when he heard this number. He thought that the pre-sales of bookstores across the country were so good, but he didn't expect that he was just like this in his own Hanlin Xuan!

"The pre-sales performance is very good. Before the official sales have started, there has been so much sales. It should be able to top the rankings, right?"

Zhang Chu replied: "It should be no problem. Now it depends on whether the pre-sale can exceed 500,000 copies. It feels like it is close to saturation now."

"If the ranking list divides the complete collection into six volumes to calculate, the sales volume can be directly multiplied by six, the pre-sale exceeds three million volumes, and a large satellite will be released, and the entire Chinese literary world and even the world literary world will have to shake!"

The scene was shocking just by thinking about it. Almost no book market could do such a thing.

But Zhang Chu has barely done it now. At least the sales amount is similar to the three million copies. The difference is that ordinary readers only buy one, but he only needs to buy six copies at least!

"If you keep this in the future, you might have the chance to break the pre-sale record. It's too early now."

Zhang Bowen was very sorry, and he immediately asked: "Why is the number of pre-sales online this time that is not as high as that of physical bookstores? Is it because the publishing company and your agency are not promoting it online?"

180,000 vs 240,000, the gap is indeed quite large!

"It's mainly because most readers on the Internet have read the content through Origin Chinese. Many people who watch the fun cannot convert it into sales. They still tend to read online, and only a few of them buy physical books to read."

Zhang Chu added: "In addition, the pre-sale volume of the 240,000 physical bookstores is mostly reserved in the eastern and southern provinces and cities, mainly in first-tier and second-tier cities. The East China region has the most sales, probably because of the influence of East China Life News!"

With the efforts of all aspects, this newspaper's daily sales have stabilized at around 1.1 million copies.

Serialized in newspapers with large circulation, the physical readers of "Soushen Ji" also need more, and the spare money in hand is more!

Even if its influence and radiation range is only in East China, it happens to be an economically developed area, and users who subscribe to newspapers generally like to read paper works.

Compared with the users of Origin Chinese, East China Life News prefers physical books, so it is not surprising that they can sell more of them.

"At that time, you can get ten more books from the publishing house, and after signing, you can send them back using SF Express. I will pay, so I will try to get in the store early."

"It's just a express delivery fee, not too expensive. Nanhai Publishing Company has not yet begun to enter the printing process. It's estimated that it will take at least half a month to do it!"

Book publishing is not like online updates, where you can upload it to a website or forum or post it by writing a chapter, but requires a series of procedures.

Zhang Bowen did not argue with Zhang Chu. Hanlinxuan made a lot of money by booking books this time, which was more profitable than before!

Although bookstores are usually good, it is extremely difficult to sell thousands of books a day unless it is a group business.

"You just finished writing a book that is nearly two million words so quickly. Could it be that you are writing it all the time and after class, right? You still have to have a little bit of your own life. Although this degree is of no use to you, learning more will definitely be beneficial."

Zhang Bowen rarely taught his son a lesson. After receiving Zhou Kang's message, he kept thinking about how to communicate with his son.

Zhang Chu did not directly refute, but said: "I am not as hanging the beam and thorning as you imagined, so don't worry. I will relax a little bit soon."
