The richest man starts from a street stall

Chapter 206 Physical Books Explode

After having dinner with Wang Youcai that day, Chen Shi immersed himself in the life of business and coding.

Towards the end of the month, universities are starting to start classes one after another, and some freshmen have begun to register.

Due to the late summer vacation, the University of Science and Technology did not register until September 9rd and 3th, and the school officially started on the 5th.

At the end of August, Chen Shi spent a day. Chen Shi took his lawyer and flew to Qihang Chinese Website Company in Shencheng, delivered the copyright payment of the two books, and signed a formal contract.

To avoid possible disputes in the future.

When I came to Qihang, I met the editor-in-chief Xiaomi, the editor-in-chief Wushuang, and several senior executives.

The arrival of Chen Shi, the legendary No. [-] handsome guy in Qihang, and a celebrity level, is really worthy of the name, and many editors took photos with him.

Chen Shi went back to Rongcheng after finishing his work, and he didn't have time to go shopping in Shencheng. The weather was too hot, so it was better to stay in the office to cool off.

Moreover, the planned release of the physical book is only a few days away, and there is a lot to do.

Shenshi Culture Media commissioned five printing houses to print 5000 million copies of novels, and the work was carried out relatively smoothly.

It is not difficult to print a book, as long as the layout is good, it can be done in one day.

Quietly, another few days passed.

As of the evening of August 8, several printing factories have printed 31 million books, more than half of which have been shipped to designated warehouses, and more than half are either in transit or in shipment.

The two flagship stores of Chen Shi Culture Media Company are named "Jiangnan Snow Night Book Store" after Chen Shi's pen name, which is convenient for netizens to search.

On the Tmall platform, Doupa is a billboard, and Material/Empire is another billboard.

If it is a competitive relationship, such as Tmall, you cannot hang two billboards of the same type.

For example, the Doupa billboard on the Tmall platform reads "The most popular fantasy novel Doupa 1-10 volumes without deletion, self-operated by the master, the only genuine free shipping".

On the home page of the billboard of the online store, it is marked with "official authentic product" and "self-operated by Jiangnan Xueye writer".

The original price of Dou Po ten volumes is 250 yuan, and the discount is 220 yuan, free shipping.

Materials/Ten Volumes of Empire Original price is 250 yuan, discounted to 220 yuan, free shipping. The original price of 20 volumes is 500 yuan, and the discounted price is 435 yuan, free shipping.

At the place of purchase, the countdown to purchase has started: "Official sale in the early morning of September 9!"

Pull down the billboard, and there are other book recommendations in the store recommendation.

On the details of Jinbao, it is written that "Qihang's top master writer, supreme masterpiece, must-read fantasy classic, and the passionate legend of fighting emperor Xiao Yan"

"Please look for the Jiangnan Xueye book store, the rest are unofficial and illegal sales."

In this world, the supervision on cultural copyright is very strict, and the punishment is too severe. Although there is no pirated version, Chen Shi still asks the technician to indicate it on the advertisement content.

Most afraid of selling it, some merchants self-printed it for sale.

Chen Shi published the IP addresses and contents of the two flagship stores on Weibo and Doupa Danzhang.

Shenshi Company, in a computer room of about [-] square meters, only placed two high-end servers to operate two stores, which is convenient for obtaining background data.

Today is Thursday, and the sale will be officially launched in the early morning of Friday tomorrow. It is already past eleven o'clock in the evening. Chen Shi, the vice president of the cultural media company, technicians, and customer service staff on night shifts are all there.

It was the first time to sell physical books online. Not only was Vice President Yang Hanwen nervous, but Chen Shi was also nervous and unsure.

Chen Shi still asked Yang Hanwen more: "Are you ready?"

Yang Hanwen said very seriously: "I've checked it several times, and the technology is fine. The customer service is already busy. Fortunately, there are robots to help.

Boss, your fans are really fanatical. Before the official sale, many people have started to inquire. "

Mentioning this, Yang Hanwen was very impressed and smiled.

"Ah."

Chen Shi nodded, smiled, and readily accepted.

This is the tens of thousands of die-hard fans. If the store is popular, I don't know if the customer service will be too busy.

Seeing that there were still more than ten minutes left, Chen Shi went back to the office to make a cup of coffee.

When I came to the customer service office with a cup of coffee, I saw five customer service staff on the night shift, occasionally typing on the keyboard to answer customer questions.

Time passed quickly. As soon as Chen Shi came to the computer room, he heard the technician shout.

"It's early morning, and it's officially on sale!"

Sure enough, but I saw that the background data has not changed.

After waiting for 1 minute, I saw that Doupa sold 25 sets, and Material/Empire sold 13 sets, of which 8 sets were full sets of 20 volumes.

Chen Shi didn't use cheats at this time either, and most of the book buyers now are fans.

Chen Shi currently has a total of 46800 diehard fans!

Doupo's collection has reached 160 million, with an average of more than 34, and the total number of updated VIP words has reached 142 million.

Chen Shi updated 2 words a day, and the daily sales had reached 76 yuan.

Due to the terrible sales on the first and second days, the sales in August reached 8 million yuan, and Chen Shi could get 3000 million yuan in royalties from the book Doupo.

There are also 250 million yuan in materials/empire, and 48 yuan in old book porters.

Of course, the manuscript fee will not come out until the [-]rd. This is just an approximate estimate from Chen Shi's own new subscriptions.

A total of 2400 million manuscript fees, excluding the 11.2% tax, is also 2131 million yuan.

When the manuscript fee comes out the day after tomorrow, even if Chen Shi doesn't post the manuscript fee, Qihang will help him to post the manuscript fee for publicity.

From the physical book sales of Doupa and Materials/Empire, one can guess the purchase volume of diehard fans.

Generally, fans seldom buy the physical book of Material/Empire. Among the 13 sets, Chen Shi estimates that one or two of them will be purchased by non-diehard fans, and the rest should be purchased by diehard fans.

After 10 minutes, the background data will be refreshed again.

Dou Po sold 200 sets, Material/Empire sold 125 sets, 78 of which were 20-volume sets.

At this rate, it is estimated that 2000 sets of books, or about [-] copies, can be sold in an hour.

Yang Hanwen congratulated Chen Shi and said, "Boss, this result is very good."

"Well, it's okay!" Chen Shi nodded, not a surprise, nor a bad one.

But he knew in his heart that at the beginning, the sales were faster, and most of the purchases were made by die-hard fans. In the later stage, almost all the die-hard fans bought, and the sales speed dropped sharply.

But even if the store does not use golden fingers to open and hang, it is estimated that hundreds of thousands of books can be sold a day today.

This achievement is enough to be proud of.

However, if the book is not opened and sold, it is estimated that the 5000 million books will not be sold out in a year.

Don't look at hundreds of thousands of books that can be sold today without golden fingers, but except for diehard fans, it will be difficult to sell later.

Chen Shi thought for a while, and decided to hang it up and sell it to try out the effect. Goldfinger soon had subtitle prompts.

[Golden finger tips: According to the server's capacity, the number of online users, and the store situation, the maximum popularity consumption rate of T Mao No. 1 online store is 500 million points per hour, and the maximum consumption rate of Tbao No. 1 online store is 400 points. 1 points/hour, after confirming to use, it will take effect [-] minute later. 】
