A perfect life starting from a light novel writer

However, Red Maple Literature is actually unaware of the behind-the-scenes behavior of these book fans. That is, the company's sales department was surprised by the sales data of this issue of Mosha Youth.

After all, the sales volume of the last issue of Setsuna Youth was only 305,600 copies, but this issue suddenly increased to 360,000 copies.

In just a few days, the sales volume suddenly increased by 50,000 to 60,000 copies. How strange!

The people in the sales department were murmuring.

Moreover, the strange thing is that in addition to the sales volume of Setsuna Youth's journal, there is also the issue of a single book about "Journey of Youth".

Regardless of whether it is in the southern province or other provinces, the distributors we cooperate with are calling to urge the delivery of the single volume of Youth Journey.

Of course, this does not mean that the first volume of Journey of Youth has been sold out on the market. It is only the first day of release, so it cannot be so fast.

It's because the dealer noticed from the sales data after yesterday's release of the single volume of the novel that the 80,000 copies of the first issue of the novel were probably not sold enough, so they asked the book publisher to replenish the stock in advance.

However, Hong Maple Literature will have to wait until next Saturday, the first week of sales of the single book, to know the specific sales volume of Journey of Youth.

On Monday, the novel results for Chapter 10 of Journey of Youth were released.

The rating remains unchanged, with 12,898 fan votes.

What surprises the people at Red Maple Literature is that Journey of Youth actually has room for an increase in the number of fan votes?

Whether it is a single volume of a novel or a serialized periodical, the data representation of the work often lags behind.

Just like Hongfeng Literature is not clear why the sales volume of this issue of Setsuna Fanghua will increase to a certain extent. Of course, the dealers of Hongfeng Literature and novels are naturally not clear either. Why the sales volume of Journey of Youth is not clear whether it is within the province or outside the province? Single-book sales figures will be much better than they expected.

In essence, "Journey of Youth" is a commercial work that has been brutally fought in a parallel world and won after being internalized.

At least in the field of island country youth love comics, this work definitely ranks high.

At the peak of the popularity of Journey of Youth comics, it was only ranked below several top-rated romance comics such as "I Want to Tell You So Much".

For people in the Dragon Kingdom, including those from Red Maple Literature, they know that this novel is excellent, but after all, the term "excellent" is too broad.

The boundaries are blurred, just like the criteria of good, medium and poor.

Is One Punch Man from the parallel world good? That's natural.

What about Dragon Balls? Not to mention that.

But are these two excellent works of the same magnitude?

Of course not. The commercial value and popularity of Dragon Ball cannot be matched by ten bald Saitama.

People from Red Maple Literature, including Tang Yin, can only roughly judge that Journey of Youth is excellent. ♦♦  ♦♦

But the question is, how good will it be in the market? No one knows. The average sales volume of 100,000 or 200,000 volumes is just an estimate by some editors based on past experience.

The market is not rigid but flexible.

Since the first volume of Journey of Youth was released on Saturday, fans went to the official website of the book club to complain and stayed there for a day.

Starting from Sunday, whether it is the Southern Province or the other sixteen provinces of the Dragon Kingdom, a group of people like this have appeared on the light novel forums in various regions without realizing it.

"Brothers, I recently found a very interesting novel, The Journey of Youth in Southern Province. It's a book shortage. Book friends who like romance youth novels should hurry up and read it. If it doesn't read, follow the Internet cable and hit me!"

In the beginning, it was just fan posts like this.

Book fans from other provinces just regarded these as book clubs in southern provinces, and the online propaganda army hired to publish new novels did not take them seriously. .

But as more and more people comment on these posts, when everyone sees hundreds of comments, almost all of them comment on how good this novel is.

Many people actually became curious, but few people really listened to these remarks easily and ran to buy the single volume of "Journey of Youth".

But the problem is, when these people browse several similar posts in a day, their psychology changes.

"Really? Is it so good? So many people are bragging about it like this? I don't believe this novel is really as good as these people make it out to be."

Once human curiosity is aroused, it is difficult to subside.

Red Maple Literature’s support for the release of the Journey of Youth single book is limited.

But in fact, as long as your work is good enough, book fans will organize themselves spontaneously to help promote their favorite works, act as trolls, and spend a lot of time to recruit newcomers.

Of course, with this level of spontaneous publicity from fans, it is difficult to create anything particularly outrageous.

For example, if you fans spontaneously promote it, the sales effect on the novel's performance will be increased, which can reach the level of kicking Qingze Library and punching the top novels on Starry Sky Books.

It is a dream for people who have spent decades and many "small goals" to establish sales and publicity channels that are so easily defeated by fans.

But for Youth Journey, the spontaneous publicity behavior of these fans is enough to have a significant impact on its performance. Fortunately, in the southern province of China, Youth Journey itself is quite popular and well-known. .

The focus is on the provinces, which are a wasteland. Even if only a small number of people in a province choose to believe the recommendation of this work by these Youth Journey fans out of curiosity.

But when these people from more than a dozen provinces are added together, the number cannot be underestimated.

Anyway, now that the total sales of the first volume of this novel are only more than 200,000 copies, and the sales in the first week will not exceed 80,000 copies, "Red Maple Literature" has already felt something is wrong.

Because only on Tuesday morning, bookstores across the country, the publisher's request for Red Maple Literature to reprint the novel about the single volume of the novel Youth Journey is about to sell out has been passed to the relevant departments of Red Maple Literature.

"What's the situation? It's only Tuesday? Why is the market feedback that the 80,000 single volumes previously released are not enough to sell? This is just a novel serialized in "Momentary Beauty"."

"Besides, it's not enough to sell in the local area of ​​​​South Province, why is it the same in other provinces? There seems to be at least tens of thousands of new orders in other provinces."

Although the sales data of the single volume of Youth Journey has not yet been released, many people in Red Maple Literature have already noticed something is wrong.

Red Maple Literature quickly notified the printing factory to work overtime to print the single volume of Youth Journey and then transport it to the order destination.

As the editor of Youth Journey, Tang Yin has been paying attention to the relevant data this week.

"This feels a bit wrong." Tang Yin was a little distracted throughout the day, focusing on the Youth Journey.

"How can the sales in other provinces be so high? There is zero publicity in those places!"

The number of copies of the book sold in the market so far has not been officially counted, but in terms of shipments, except for the release day on Saturday, after Sunday, the total order demand from other provinces has almost surpassed that of the local area of ​​Southern Province.
