Old White's hunch was accurate.
The Harry Potter book did become popular not long after it was released. In just half a month, Blue Oak's first printing of 50,000 books is about to be sold out.
Readers’ evaluations of this book are more positive than negative.
Some people are shocked by the magical world it depicts, and some people can't stop because of the climactic plot.
Some people criticized the content of this book as being childish and felt that it lacked connotation. However, the quantity was small and irrelevant, and it did not affect the sales of the book or its high evaluation at all.
What's more interesting is that although readers have high praise for the book, they are full of criticism towards the author.
Readers who are eager to know the continuation of the plot often greet the author who broke the climax of the novel. Some even write to Blue Oak to ask them to publish the second book as soon as possible. Come out, or blow up the publishing house, and make it clear that this is not a threat, but a notice to them.
It is said that this extreme person seems to be a gang leader.
Another thing worth mentioning is that on the tenth day after the release of Harry Potter, a Citizen man was very sure that there were wizards in this world after reading the contents of the book, and he also I made my own floo powder and lit it in my fireplace.
The result...
The floo powder's flames were indeed very green, but the man's walking was painful.
I don’t know what ingredients this fierce man added to the floo powder. He burned himself very thoroughly. When he found it, he was already reduced to charcoal and shattered on the ground when he touched it. It is said that the police were He was carried away using the washbasin.
When people first saw this news, they thought it was very ridiculous, thinking that someone was hyping it up, and that it was fake. However, when they learned that the incident happened in Florida, they thought it was normal.
Who doesn’t know about the fun people in Florida?
It’s hard to overstate how many strange things happened.
...
"Haha, we won, we won the bet!"
Blue Oak.
Chrissy was ecstatic when she saw the snow-like orders in front of her and the submissions from several new writers. She spent a lot of money to buy an expensive bottle of champagne and simply celebrated in the publishing house.
“Cheers!”
"For Harry Potter!"
"For a better tomorrow!"
A group of employees clinked glasses with the boss excitedly, and everyone was smiling.
Chrissy felt a little confused about this.
I am happy to be able to exchange for a luxury house, what are you doing for that?
"Gudong!"
After drinking a glass of orange champagne, Chrissy rubbed the beard on his face vigorously and babbled excitedly: "Haha, thank you Chu! You helped again Get me! From today on, I don’t believe in any gods, I only believe in you! I’m willing to dedicate my sexy butt to you!”
I went crazy for a while.
He quickly returned to normal, and hurriedly ordered to the group of consumables in front of him who were still having fun: "Quickly, get moving, guys, inform the printing house immediately, we want to print ten more... …Two hundred thousand copies!”
While there was a lot of joy in the blue oak tree.
Harry Potter, a rapidly rising star, has also entered the attention of some international booksellers.
The first person to react was Chrissy’s old friend Random House. Two days later, they sent a regional deputy manager to personally discuss the overseas agency rights of Harry Potter. The price was set. It’s also very reasonable, and it’s the top treatment for newcomers with new books.
But, can this Harry Potter book, which has become popular, be considered a new book by a newcomer?
"Get out! You bunch of bastards! I will never let you take advantage of me!"
Although Blue Oak was in decline in the previous period, it has come into contact with overseas channels But he was still there, so Chrissy, who was no longer Wu Xia Amon, drove the people away with a mop pole and ambitiously wanted to be responsible for overseas sales.
"He...tui!"
"Damn vampire!"
Chrissy looked at the Random House people with dark faces getting into the car with disgust, curled her lips and turned around Open the door and enter the publishing house. He looked at the fat black aunt at the front desk, and while thinking about when to change to a beautiful front desk, he walked back to the office with light steps.
Going to the desk and sitting down, Chrissy picked up a report on the table, which showed the sales data of more than ten books, all from the transaction between him and Chu Heng. More than a hundred books.
Blue Oak's strength is limited, and Crissy's financial resources are also limited. It is impossible to distribute all these books at one time, so he can only sell them in batches, and it is still a regional test.
The more than ten books on the report are the first batch.
The sales volume of most of the books in it is between dozens or hundreds. These can basically be judged as being sold off the street, and they can only be sold on the basis of the idea that mosquito legs are also meat.
There is only one book that has a decent sales volume, and it has sold more than 3,000 copies. There is still a lot of potential to be tapped in the future. I guess I can buy Chrissy a new car.
“Pa!”
After looking at the data on the report for a few times, Krissy flicked the paper with a smile and said proudly: "Cooperating with Chu is definitely the right decision I have made in the past few years!"
"He is my lucky star!"
......
The sun rises and the moon sets, time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is the end of September in Forty-Nine City.
In late September in Sijiucheng, the temperature gradually dropped, and the coolness in the morning and evening made people aware of the approach of autumn.
At the same time, various non-staple food stores are also filled with various fruits and vegetables.
Grapes, apples, pears, lettuce, celery, and eggplant make the grocery store colorful and fragrant.
This is a harvest season.
Midday.
The sun is shining brightly in the sky and the temperature is moderate and pleasant.
Chu Heng, who had been busy for more than half a year, finally had some free time recently. He had just had lunch and was currently taking a nap on the lounge chair in the backyard patio of the Chu family's house. His gentle and rhythmic snores sounded peaceful to him.
“Uncle Sugar!”
Suddenly, a silver bell-like call came from the front yard.
Chu Heng sat up in horror in his sleep. He was a little unsure and quickly raised his ears to listen carefully.
"Uncle Sugar! Uncle Sugar! I'm coming!"
Soon, a desperate call sounded again.
“Hey, why is this little annoying guy here again!” Chu Heng stood up in a panic, ran to the study and locked up the treasures in his room, and waited for him to come back. I saw Liu Haokong's family of three walking in through the Moon Gate.
Unknowingly, Xiao Liuhong is already six years old, which is the age of rapid growth. After not seeing her for a while, she has already grown a lot, almost reaching Chu Heng’s waist.
She is wearing two thick and long braids today. She has a pink face and beautiful facial features. It can be seen that she is a beauty even at a young age, but her dark eyes are full of beauty. The clear stupidity that is almost overflowing will give her some points.
“Uncle!”
As soon as she saw Chu Heng, Liu Hong happily ran up to him, hugged his thigh, raised her pink face, and said with a smile: "Do you miss me?"
" I'm crazy because I miss you, you little annoying guy!" Chu Heng rolled his eyes at her.
"Huh! Ignore you!" Liu Hong wrinkled her nose and angrily ran to the old lady's house to find the two children to play with.
Chu Heng ignored her, turned around and greeted Liu Haokong and his wife with a smile: "Why did you two come to me?"
"We are off work today. Children go to Tiananmen Square After a while, I went to Sanliang Store when I came back. I heard Yinghong said that you didn't go to work today, so I came over to visit. It just so happened that Liu Hong had been clamoring to come to Chu Zhecheng to play with Huniu these two days. Son." Miao Ying said with a smile.
"Tsk, your little courtyard is really nice." Liu Haokong looked around and said with some envy: "Clean and spacious."
