Chapter 50： viral spread

As the editor-in-chief of Lunar Publishing House, Harry can be regarded as a famous figure in the publishing industry, but he made a big mistake because of a blind eye. Ever since Burns quoted a high royalty share of 65% for Li Daniu, Harry began to live like a year.

Not to mention that Harry didn't have the authority to agree to this share ratio, even if Harry had it, he wouldn't give it to Li Daniu. Although he also fell in love with this book after reading "The Lord of the Rings", in his opinion, as a publisher, it is absolutely impossible to do things that are not beneficial. He is not a good man, he is a businessman.

So, Harry decided to hang out with Li Daniu for a few days, and let him figure it out for himself. But if the emperor is not in a hurry, the **** is always in a hurry, and Harry is that **** at this time. Ever since the discussion on "Lord of the Rings" on the Internet has intensified, Harry began to regret that he was too self-willed, why did he let others go? Don't you have to worry about it if you talk about the price?

Before Harry could make up his mind to contact Burns, he learned that "The Lord of the Rings" had become the bestseller of the week, and there was no news of the book being sold in the entire market. Now, the paper can no longer keep the fire, because all the bookstores call the Lunar Publishing House to ask for supplies. Moreover, "The Lord of the Rings" is printed with Lunar Publishing House, so many readers and reporters have called Lunar Publishing House to ask about "Lord of the Rings" news.

When the editor-in-chief of Moon Publishing House found out the whole story, he slapped Harry in the face, and asked Harry to get Li Daniu's authorization as soon as possible, because Li Daniu made a special request when signing the contract that the contract must be Note that the second printing is subject to the consent of Li Daniu.

In the eyes of Harry at the time, this contract clause was completely ridiculous, and now Harry has become a joke of the Moon Publishing House, and some well-informed people have already leaked this matter to reporters. A joke in the American publishing world.

When Harry learned from Burns that Li Daniu had given the publishing rights to Sunshine Publishing House, he suddenly felt that his sky was falling. Harry could even see that his future in the publishing industry was in the dark.

Not to mention Harry's pain, Lewis, who was authorized by Li Daniu to publish, is also very painful, not much worse than Harry, although this pain is the pain of happiness.

After signing the contract, Louis declared the contract to the company. Although he had the right to make the decision, the company still had to go through a procedure before Louis could arrange printing.

It takes time to go through the procedure, and because this book has already been published by Lunar Publishing House, Louis still needs to use some means to get rid of the influence of Lunar Publishing House on "Lord of the Rings".

Louis has even made preparations to buy back all the "Lord of the Rings" on the market, and then replace them with covers, remove the imprint of Moon Publishing House, and add Sunshine Publishing House before selling them. Compared with the sales of millions of sets estimated by Lewis, this little investment is really nothing.

However, after Sunshine Publishing's procedures were completed and Louis arranged for the factory to print it, he discovered that in just a few days, there had been a frenzy of recommendations about "The Lord of the Rings" on the Internet.

This is a good thing, after all, the explosion of word-of-mouth has also lightened a lot of burden on the publisher's publicity work.

Louis specially customized his publicity plan according to these word-of-mouth on the Internet.

However, custom solutions also take time. In Louis' view, a day or two would have no effect at all, but he never expected that happiness would come so suddenly. When Louis's promotion plan was successfully customized, the "Lord of the Rings" on the market had already been sold out.

There was no publicity, but in the second week of its release, it sold 100,000 sets. What kind of concept is this? This is completely rushing to the top position of the annual bestseller list.

Louis subconsciously ignored the 100,000 sets of "Lord of the Rings", and sold more than 100 sets in the first week, because compared with the number of 100,000, more than 100 sets can really be rounded off.

Enjoying this sudden happiness, Louis suddenly felt pain while admiring his vision and determination.

Because the 300,000 sets of "Lord of the Rings" he customized cannot satisfy the current market at all, and it will take about three days for the 300,000 sets to be shipped, plus the transportation and distribution needs Time, people who want to buy the book "The Lord of the Rings" will have to wait at least five days before they can get it.

The five-day delay seemed insignificant for something like a book that could be sold for years.

But this book has just won the weekly bestseller list, and looking at the current trend and the sales of other books on the market, this book won the championship in the second week, third week or even the fourth week and the fifth week There is nothing wrong with the throne either.

So far, the United States has won the weekly best-seller list for 8 consecutive weeks. According to Lewis, "The Lord of the Rings" is a work that is likely to hit this record. But unexpectedly, because of supply problems, it was cut off in front of the second champion of the week.

Winning eight weekly crowns in a row and winning a total of eight weekly crowns are two completely different concepts.

There are seven days in a week, and there are five out of stock in the middle. Even if the goods can be supplied in time on the sixth day, can the sales volume of other books exceed the sales volume of other books in seven days in two days? No matter how confident Louis is in this book, he will not have such extravagant expectations, because the United States, as the world's largest genuine book market, is facing writers from all over the world, and well-known writers can be pulled by trains.

No matter how classic "Lord of the Rings" is, the author Li Daniu is also a newcomer with no fan base at all.

Louis, who was in great pain, hated his own work efficiency, the efficiency of his company, and even the efficiency of the printing factory.

I heard that the country across the Pacific Ocean can build a 57-storey building in 19 days, and the quality is very guaranteed. Louis had to sigh, if the United States had this kind of work efficiency, it is estimated that it would not be overtaken by that country.

Not to mention that Lewis began to remedy the situation, urging the printing press and starting a formal promotion of "Lord of the Rings".

The attention of American netizens, in addition to paying attention to the strange sales and out-of-stock of "The Lord of the Rings", also began to pay attention to another thing.

Douglas and Liz, as Hollywood actors, although they don't have any famous works, they are not big stars. But with their pretty good looks, they each have a group of fans.

When Douglas and Liz updated their status at the same time, saying that they were going to travel to a country called Tuvalu, some fans thought that the two were going to announce their relationship. However, apart from their limited fans, not many people will care about the status of the two of them.

Douglas and Lise listened to Li Daniu's words very much. After all, he is now taking them to film in Tuvalu as a film investor and director. Moreover, Li Daniu is also the king of Tuvalu.

According to Li Daniu's arrangement, Douglas and Liz kept updating their eyebook status and uploading some pictures of the scenery of Tuvalu.

Tuvalu itself is an island country There are seas and beaches, and there is no industry, so there is no industrial pollution. The sky is blue, the water is clear and the sand is soft, and the photos are all taken by the photographer Curry with professional equipment, so it is naturally beautiful.

With these beautiful and bubbling photos, as well as the characteristics of Tuvalu being far away from the world, many people began to pay attention to this trip of Douglas and Liz, and prepared to make plans to go there.

However, when the filming was about to end, Li Daniu asked his two actors to start posting some weird dynamics.

For example: "The place where I live is a bit strange, and the things in the bag somehow got out of the bag."

"The bedroom door was closed when I fell asleep, but when I woke up, it opened."

"Last night, I don't know if it was a dream. I seemed to hear someone talking next to me."

"I changed the room, it seems to be more serious."

"I asked for a standard room today, and I plan to stay with Douglas for one night. I'm a little scared."

"It's too bad here. The airport doesn't even have its own plane. The nearest flight will arrive in four days. I really want to leave here quickly."

"Lise wanted to see what was going on, so I decided to put the camera in the room overnight."

Some people who paid attention to Douglas and Lise thought that these two people were crazy, until one day, Douglas uploaded a short video, which was very short.

I'm stupid!

This is the first word subconsciously uttered by everyone who has watched this video. Then, this video began to spread on the Internet in the United States like a virus Book friends are welcome to come and read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all here~www.novelhall.com ~Mobile phone users please go to read.
