Chapter 212

In the evening, in the employee communication group of Muyi Company.

"Are you ready? Big guy!" Mao Sui said in the group.

"Five post bar trumpets are ready!"

"Five sci-fi forum trumpets are ready!"

"."

"Waiting for instructions!"

The crowd echoed.

"Very good! Now I declare that the 'Battle to Save the Three-Body Problem' plan has officially begun!"

"The "Clash of Clans" project team received it!"

"The "Assassin's Five Six Seven" project team received it!"

"The test platform project team received!"

The employees of Muyi Company looked at the trumpet they were about to release, gearing up for a while, sparks ignited in their eyes, as if they had been looking forward to it for a long time.

"Let's take a look at the new book signing held by Mr. Ma Yinhe today.

Suddenly a group was pushed into the group.

Everyone has long known that Ma Yinhe will release a science fiction novel in mid-April, but they did not expect it to be released today.So under the trend of curiosity, they all clicked on the video to watch.

Ten minutes later, there was a sudden upsurge in the silent group.

"Rectify the name of science fiction literature? New genre of science fiction literature? Romance + science fiction? Oh my! As far as the things he wrote, it's okay to coax elementary school students."

"After "The Three-Body Problem", there is no more science fiction. I only recognize Mr. Li in Chinese science fiction literature."

"This guy really dares to say anything!"

"Only two thousand copies were sold at the new book signing? Is it true?"

"In fact, the romance he wrote is not bad. I read a few books when I was in junior high school. But his style of painting is really shameful, and now I get goosebumps when I think about it. I really can't imagine what his science fiction novels look like." .”

"Stop discussing Ma Yinhe."

"Everyone, let's start according to the pre-plan!"

Mao Sui interrupted the conversation in the group, and then all the members in the group organized and planned to become navy soldiers.

Looking at the suddenly empty group, Mao Sui suddenly had the feeling of commanding thousands of troops, as if this was a battle worth fighting.

Qianzhihe Publishing House.

"Editor-in-Chief, the first-day sales are already out. These are the sales at the signing event and online sales." An employee handed the document to Editor Liu.

"Okay, I know."

Editor Liu took the file and looked down. When he saw the number, he couldn't help but feel excited.

"Sold [-] copies on the first day!" Editor Liu looked at the data in his hand and couldn't help but beam with joy.

The data of Xiaoliang on the first day is based on the [-] copies of the signing event plus the number of online pre-sales, but looking at this data, Editor Liu knows that this number should be discounted.

Because 1200 of the 800 copies sold at the signing were fake, but the real sales volume was only [-].But even so, the sales volume on the first day was close to [-] copies, which is an extremely impressive figure.

Editor Liu quickly took out his mobile phone and called Ma Yinhe.

"Sold [-] copies on the first day?" Ma Yinhe, who was staying at home at this time, answered the phone in anxiety, and he couldn't help showing a relieved expression on his face that was originally very disturbed.

According to this trend, maybe the sales volume in the first month can exceed [-] to [-] copies?

If the annual sales volume can reach 20, Ma Yinhe can be regarded as breaking through one of his own shackles.

With the rapid rise of online literature, he who has been writing romance has become more and more sad, and the sales of books have become more and more unsatisfactory. Naturally, the royalties he got are getting lower and lower.

And this book made him see the possibility of selling well.

After hanging up the phone, Ma Yinhe suddenly rang for some reason the new book on science fiction literature from the same period that Editor Liu had told him before.

Ma Yinhe found the store of Kyoto Publishing House, and as expected, he saw the promotional image of the Three-Body Problem on the front page.

"Three-Body Problem?" Ma Yinhe glanced at the name.

Ma Yinhe followed the interface and clicked in, only to find that the number of pre-sale copies of this book had just exceeded [-]. He was instantly relieved, but immediately felt a little contempt for his own idea.

This is a book written by a little-known author. Why should I worry about the threat this book can pose to me?Can such a small author be compared with himself?

Thinking of this, Ma Yinhe couldn't help showing a disdainful expression. He didn't know whether he was laughing at "Three-Body Problem" or disdainful of his own ideas.

Just after Ma Yinhe closed the interface.

On the major forums, especially the major literary forums, a troop suddenly appeared.

Start building momentum for "Three-Body Problem" on the forum.

Mao Sui and his group are all talents in the game industry, and they are all familiar with being a navy.

So they divided into groups.

The first category is blowing the three-body bug.

The second category is madly belittling the three-body problem.

The third category is to publish extremely high-level soft articles.

Moreover, the level of soft articles is extremely high. Except for a few experienced colleagues, or people who have been in the forum for a long time, it is difficult for outsiders to see that this is actually a soft article.

So for a while, many people in the forum discovered these posts and articles.

"Three bodies?"

"Sci-fi literature?"

"It seems that Ma Yinhe's new book is also science fiction literature."

"Pfft, don't tease me, what Ma Yinhe wrote can also be called science fiction literature? I don't even need to read it to know what kind of stuff this guy is."

"."

It seems that there are many people who read the post, but not many people actually buy it.

Worked overnight.

Waiting for the next day, everyone in Muyi Company looked back and found that the pre-sale of "Three-Body Problem" was only twenty or thirty volumes more.

After working hard all night, only [-] or [-] copies of "Three-Body Problem" were sold.

The crowd was suddenly a little discouraged.

The next day all the employees looked listless.

Li Yi saw it in his eyes, and he had some doubts about it yesterday, so he found Mao Sui and Zhuge Buliang, and after some interrogation, they revealed the truth.

Li Yi suddenly felt a little dumbfounded.

What the two of them did was actually what the game advertised.

But game promotion and book promotion are two different things.

If you have to say it, the cost of acquiring online users for books, or traditional books, is countless times greater than the cost of acquiring offline users.

Especially for a new author, if people don’t know you and have nowhere to read your books, why should they buy your books?

On the contrary, offline readers may occasionally see it in a bookstore, browse through it and find it interesting and then buy it. The user acquisition cost is much lower than online.

To put it bluntly, the two are still separated by mountains, and they haven't understood that the routine of game announcements cannot be directly applied to the announcements of physical books.However, since the company does not yet have a formal publicity department, it is not bad that such a group of scientific research dogs who only know how to do projects can think of these ideas in a short time.

Li Yi strictly ordered the two of them to stop there. Everyone in the company was prohibited from getting involved in this matter, and they could just finish their projects with peace of mind.

Looking at the slightly lonely backs of the two, Li Yi couldn't help feeling warm in his heart, and the corners of his mouth curled into a smile.
