Chapter 189 Benchmark

Some classmates called Zhao Yan to ask about the sales of new books, and some students sent text messages. Zhao Yan didn't expect it to be one o'clock in the morning, and someone came to ask, so they simply turned off the phone.

The next morning, Zhao Yanchen came back from practice and met Tang Ping, who was in the dormitory corridor. Tang Ping smiled and asked, "Zhao Yan! I heard that your new book was sold online last night. How about it? Has it sold for 10,000 yuan?"

Zhao Yan looked at him coldly, without looking at his smile, opened the door and entered the dormitory, and happened to meet Xie Dengyun coming out of the bedroom. Seeing Zhao Yan, Xie Dengyun's mouth was raised, and his sarcasm was revealed.

When I walked into the classroom during morning self-study, someone came to ask how Zhao Yan's new book was sold with sword energy?

Those who are close, slightly curious, and those who are not close, are curious with the meaning of watching jokes. Zhao Yan's "Rebirth: The Great Sword of Soldiers" is selling well. Except for Zhang Peng, no one knows, but someone in the class already knows the subscription status of several works that were listed at the same time.

I don’t know where these people got the news. Before Zhao Yan went to bed last night, news was already circulating in the boys’ building, saying that the subscription data for "Knife" and "Flying Swallow of the Sky" was less than 100. If you contact the subscription price of "Sword" as low as 1,000 words and 3.5 points, the two books obviously won’t make much money.

Whether it is "Sword" or "Flying Swallow of the Sky", they are all regular visitors on the reward list of sword energy works recently, and their rankings are only a few places lower than Zhao Yan's "Rebirth of the Great Sword of the Sword".

"The subscription to Zhao Yan's book is definitely not much higher!"

This sentence was circulated in boys' dormitories and girls' dormitories last night. Most of the girls slept early, and the circulating range was slightly smaller. The boys had almost spread last night.

"Hey! Zhao Yan! The sales of your book are okay, right?"

Nian Xiaobai, who was sitting behind Zhao Yan's table, asked quietly.

"fine!"

Zhao Yan answered lightly.

"It's really okay?" Changsun Xiaqiu, who was in front of the table, frowned slightly, and there was a little concern between his eyebrows and eyes.

Zhao Yan nodded and nodded slightly.

...

Zhao Yan did not explain to anyone the concept of the 24-hour first chapter subscription, except for the employees with sword energy.

"How is it? Receive all the subscription data of the works on this issue and show me!"

After lunch, Zhao Yan came to the company and found Xi Jian directly and asked Xi Jian to call out the data.

Xi Jian agreed, typing on the keyboard with both hands a few times, and then moving the mouse. The computer screen in front of him showed the subscription data of all the works shelves last night.

Because of Zhao Yan's arrival, everyone from the company subconsciously gathered. At this time, everyone was not in high spirits, whether it was editor-in-chief Wang Qin, technical director Xi Jian, or new employees Su Junyu, Yu Xiaona, Fang Bing, Fan Long and others. They all knew very well that Zhao Yan's financial resources were not strong. If the charging system was not successful this time, if the sword energy could not be supported, they would soon face unemployment. Zhao Yan, who was only 17 years old, would not be able to provide them with retirement.

"Rebirth of the Great Sword of the Soldier" 442.

"The Gun King" 88.

"The Realm of Shenwu" 256.

"Knife" 119.

"Rongshan Wolf Smoke" 212.

"Flying Swallow in the Empty Gate" 103.

"Invincible Boxing" 97.

"The Deadly Left Hand" 174.

"Humanoid Weapons" 196.

"Legend of Purple Shadow Sword" 74.

This is the data presented to Zhao Yan and everyone. Only Zhao Yan has more than 400 subscribers, and only Zhao Yan has more than 200 subscribers, including Black Dog's "The Realm of Shenwu" and Xiao Ming's "The Wolf Smoke of Jiangshan".

There are two more books that have not exceeded 100 in the first chapter. What surprised Zhao Yan especially was "The Gun King", which has been ranked second on the reward list recently. Zhao Yan thought its subscription data would be second only to his "Rebirth of the Great Sword of the Soldier". Unexpectedly, it would be the second to last among the works on this issue.

"Mr. Zhao! "The King of Guns" was not updated last night, but was updated this morning! It's only a few hours now!"

Yu Xiaona suddenly broke the silence of the scene, which attracted everyone to look at her. Zhao Yan also looked over. Yu Xiaona was slightly nervous when she was watched by so many people. But she still squeezed a smile and repeated the words just now.

"That's it! Yes! Last night I seemed to notice that "Gun King" has not been updated, but I didn't expect it to be updated this morning! That author is so calm! Haha! Haha!"

Wang Qin suddenly smiled. Jia Hongwei also smiled and agreed: "There were 88 subscriptions in one morning, and it even surpassed the "Purple Shadow Sword Legend". It's very good!"

"Now, there are nearly 12 hours left before the first subscription data that Mr. Zhao said. I hope that these subscription data will increase a little more this afternoon and evening!" Wang Qin kept a smile and said something cheering for everyone.

His encouragement was a little effective, and the atmosphere at the scene was a little relaxed, but after Zhao Yan and him entered his office, the smile on Wang Qin's face disappeared.

"Mr. Zhao! The situation is not optimistic! The 10 books on the shelves of the Golden Sword List in this issue are already the most popular works we have recently. Among them is Mr. Zhao, your book "Rebirth: The Great Sword of Soldiers" that has been tested by the publishing market. If you do not have your book in this issue, the data on the shelves this time will be even more ugly! Mr. Zhao! I suggest that we should not sign contracts for the work on the shelves in the short term! With such subscription data, we will not make any money. Don't forget that we have to pay the full attendance award! Fortunately, if more and more works are listed, the full attendance award alone will quickly drag us down!"

"Need not!"

Zhao Yan paced in Wang Qin's office, and without thinking, he rejected Wang Qin's suggestion. Wang Qin opened his mouth and wanted to say something. Zhao Yan raised his right hand to stop him. At the same time, Zhao Yan also stopped and looked at Wang Qin and said seriously: "Editor Wang! Now we need a role model! A role model that can really make money with us with sword energy! This role model can be me, but I am now the boss with sword energy. No matter how high the data in my book is, the outside world will doubt the authenticity of my data!"

Wang Qin: "But Mr. Zhao! Apart from your book, other books are afraid they can't set an example! Their subscription data is not enough! It's difficult to hold on!"

Zhao Yan raised his hand again to interrupt Wang Qin.

"No! I will try to make my subscription higher in my book! But the role model or benchmark we want must be one! Editor-in-chief Wang! It is not a question of whether we can do it now! But whether we need it! Since we need it very much, then the benchmark must appear! The subscription data is not good? We help him improve! If it is not enough, we will help him improve ten points. If the ten points are still not enough, then double it! In short, we must set a benchmark for me so that other authors can see the hope of making money. No matter how much we say and how good the publicity is, it cannot be as good as the role model of a benchmark person!"

Wang Qin was a little speechless.

"Mr. Zhao...we will help him improve? How can we help him make data fake? Then in the month, we have to pay the royalties! The royalties cannot be fake! And since they are benchmarks, they are long-term. You can't ignore them after a month, right? That may be wasted all your efforts!"

Zhao Yan shook his hand.

"Of course we didn't help him with fake data!"

Wang Qin: "How can I help him improve?"

Zhao Yan: "Recommended position! Don't we have a big rejection? I've been hanging my book these two days, right? Remove it! Put the book we want to support. If you don't have one day, just leave it for a week. If you don't have one week, change to a slightly worse recommendation position. I don't believe that there are still people who can't support it! Of course! The premise is to choose the high-quality ones among the works on this issue! Don't let readers scold us for always pushing bad books!"

Wang Qin smiled bitterly when he heard this. He had never thought about which book to give such a backdoor. Even Zhao Yan's works were not intended to promote them so obviously. Unexpectedly, Zhao Yan taught him to rotate the book to various high-quality recommendation positions this time.

"Okay! But Mr. Zhao, which book should we choose to promote it? "Gun King"? Although the subscriptions of this book are a little low, the quality is very good. The most important thing is that the first chapter it was released this morning. The number of subscribers at present is no longer the lowest, which means..."

Zhao Yan raised his hand again to interrupt Wang Qin's words.

"The Gun King may not be able to do it!"

Wang Qin: "Why?"

Wang Qin was puzzled.

Zhao Yan walked to the sofa next to him and sat down, saying casually: "Its update came so late on the first day of the shelves. If I remember correctly, its update would not be fast! If it could not get up quickly behind it, then it would be completely ineligible to be our benchmark!"

Wang Qin sat down on the sofa with Zhao Yan. When she heard this, she asked again: "Why?"

Zhao Yan looked at Wang Qin and said without hesitation: "Because we are taking the low-priced route! The subscription price is already low to that level. If the author's update is not fast enough, do you think you can make money?"

Wang Qin: "The quality is good, there are more people who subscribe. It's nothing to be slower, right?"

Zhao Yan shook his hand.

"What you said makes sense! But our benchmark cannot be such an author! Because we can't find so many authors with good writing skills, so good that one chapter can be more than the other two chapters subscribed! So, today! Let's communicate with the authors with the best data on this issue today! Learn about their wishes and speed of writing, and whether they have time to concentrate on writing articles recently! Understand all of these, and then choose one to two people to give the greatest support in the near future! I don't require them to earn tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands in the near future! But at least it must reach a monthly income of five thousand!"

"Okay! I understand!"

Wang Qin agreed. Although he did not fully agree with Zhao Yan's idea from his expression, Zhao Yan had already given the order and he still agreed helplessly. (To be continued)
