Chapter 105 Promotion Plan (Thanks to the boss ‘Unscientific Red and White’ for being the protagonist of this book!)

“One million?! Buy fifty illustrations? Are you crazy or am I crazy?”

When Yue Zhong returned to the headquarters of Yuewen and reported the news to Editor-in-Chief Xu, the other party looked at him as if he were a madman.

“But you agree, Editor-in-Chief!”

“I do agree, but I don’t agree that you spend a lot of money to buy illustrations! You told me that you wanted to find Miaobi, and I agreed. I transferred you to the light novel channel because I trust you.” After Editor-in-Chief Xu calmed down, he looked at the other party calmly and said, “But it’s really unwise for you to spend a million to buy fifty illustrations. I have heard of Miaobi. She is very famous now. According to her worth, you are worth the money, but are you 100% sure that you can make this book popular in this way? Have you thought about the consequences if this book doesn’t become popular? Millions of funds, we You can use various methods, and there is always one that can succeed. So you put all your eggs in one basket? "

"This..." Yue Zhong heard this and couldn't help sweating. He reluctantly said, "But if we don't operate well, it's still unknown whether it can become popular. I did this because I considered that other methods are useless, so I found Miaobi! Just like many books I have encountered before, just take "Xuantian" as an example. "

"Xuantian" has always been a flop on Qidian.com until a traditional writer praised the book on Weibo, and it became popular.

"Then please give an example similar to "Xuantian"." Editor-in-Chief Xu said coldly, "There is only one book "Xuantian". Do you think this book "Demon King's Contract" will be the same as "Xuantian"? I have seen the performance of this book. It is considered good in the light novel channel, but in other channels, its data is crushed by other books! Moreover, the quality of "Xuantian" is not bad. The reason why the early data is poor is because of the special reasons of the fantasy classification channel.

There are too many fantasy novels now, and there are too many people who want to become gods with one book! However, there are so many new fantasy books, which has led to aesthetic fatigue of readers. In addition, due to the routine, readers will not pay attention to fantasy novels with few words. This has created a vicious cycle of readers not reading fantasy-poor novel data-author eunuch-readers dare not read new fantasy books. So now is the era of creativity being king. Only when the creativity is good can there be a day to come out. Do you think this book The book has a good idea? Is there anything that can compare the two books? "

"It's true that they can't be compared, because the traffic of the light novel channel is too low."

"No, you're wrong!" Seeing Yue Zhong and himself being stubborn, Chief Editor Xu sighed. As a senior online editor, he has been engaged in this industry since the beginning of online writing, until the development of online writing to the current golden age. He realized one thing. Thinking of this, he said lightly, "Books that can become popular can become popular no matter what, and books that cannot become popular are because of the poor quality of the books. In addition, this "Devil's Contract" has been recommended on all the recommended websites, proving that it cannot become popular. Maybe the traffic you mentioned has some reasons, but this is not the reason why you can spend one million to find Miaobihua illustrations, so call to cancel this matter."

"I have signed the contract." Although Yue Zhong is middle-aged, he has made up his mind about things that cannot be pulled back by several bulls, and he believes that his ideas are right.

"You...really...ah..." Chief Editor Xu smiled bitterly.

The reason why he did not agree with Yue Zhong's matter was actually because the amount involved was too large.

Although they have the full copyright to promote the novel "Devil's Contract", so if this novel is really popular, Yuewen will benefit greatly, but one million is too much.

If it is a novel by a great writer, then he can accept the one million without blinking an eye, because the books of great writers are guaranteed.

But this is just a book by a newcomer, and there is no guarantee at all.

He is the editor-in-chief, not the general manager. If the promotion is not popular, he will be implicated.

But the other party has signed the contract... After thinking for a while, Editor-in-Chief Xu waved his hand helplessly, "Okay, you go out, you are still responsible for this matter. Since the contract has been signed, let's give it a try."

"Okay!" Seeing this, Yue Zhong looked at the other party hesitantly, and then went out directly.

Looking at the closed door, Editor-in-Chief Xu thought for a long time, and then made a phone call. After the other party answered, he took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Yang, I have something to talk to you about."

"Go ahead."

Editor-in-Chief Xu sorted out his thoughts and said something about Yue Zhong.

"What do you think?"

"The contract signing was just his angry words. I guess the contract hasn't been signed yet." Editor-in-Chief Xu smiled helplessly, "I know Yue Zhong. He is quite straightforward, so he is not good at lying. Besides, I have known him for a long time. This guy is very capable, but he just doesn't know how to adapt. Once he makes up his mind, no one can change it..."

"Okay, I'm not asking that." President Yang said with a smile, "And I won't have any bad thoughts about Editor-in-Chief Yue for this reason. I used to be an editor. The light novel channel was only established half a year ago. This new channel is a new project. It's good if it can be popular, but it's not a big deal if it can't be popular. What I'm asking is what you think of Editor-in-Chief Yue's plan."

The light novel channel is just an attempt by Yuewen to semi-monopolize online literature.

The theme of light novels is still quite popular on specialized websites, so Yuewen naturally doesn't intend to let it go, or in other words, they are very tight on online literature and keep a close eye on it.

In today's Internet era, there are too many major and major novel websites. If a policy is not implemented well, other websites will pounce on it like hungry wolves to take a piece of meat.

"The idea is good, but it's too risky." Editor-in-Chief Xu said, "But it's not without the possibility of success. This is a gamble. If you win, it's good. If you lose, other websites will laugh at us."

This is actually the main thing. Is one million really that many? No, for Yuewen, this is not much. But if they spend millions and a book is not promoted to the place they want to see it, then the ridicule from other websites, coupled with intentional or unintentional negative news, is the top priority for China Literature, because China Literature Group is preparing IPO plan.

If negative news breaks out before this, it will have a huge impact on the listing, no matter how big or small the negative news is.

"Is the wonderful pen Editor-in-Chief Yue is looking for the one from "The Book of Life and Death"?" Mr. Yang suddenly asked.

"Yes, it's that wonderful pen. She also has a copy of the "Su Xian Series". I heard that the "Lifan" series was very popular. Tencent Animation's customer service phone number was flooded with calls from viewers, who all wanted a Blu-ray BD collection. ”

"In that case, let's implement it according to Chief Editor Yue's plan. After all, he has already negotiated it." Mr. Yang didn't know what he thought of and said calmly, "Then after the cover of "Demon King's Contract" is drawn with Miaobi, you can go directly to the homepage Pull up a banner, the same goes for the client. Since millions have been spent, we naturally have to do enough promotion. "

"Okay." Although I didn't know what Mr. Yang had in mind, Editor-in-Chief Xu didn't ask.

"If it succeeds, it will have a great impact on the listing plan of the entire China Literature Group. Please pay careful attention to this book."

Mr. Yang said a word and hung up the phone, leaving Chief Editor Xu confused.
