Rebirth of literary style

Chapter 12 Hunger Marketing

After reading Zhang Duo's manuscript, Wu Weizhong immediately decided to serialize it in the Northeast Evening News and said that he could give a price of 200 words, which is already a fair price for writers of vernacular novels.

After receiving a phone call from Jiang Xiancheng, Zhang Duo agreed without much consideration. Wu Weizhong went to Xingshan in person, and Zhang Zhenxing naturally came to sign another contract. Although he was shocked and a little numb, he still falsely scolded Zhang Duo and warned Zhang Duo to write novels, but if he delayed his study, let's see how I deal with you. Zhang Duo didn't pay much attention to his father's words. He nodded randomly and answered.

The Days of Living with the Stewardess was out of stock on September 26. Although Jiang Xiancheng contacted Zhang Duo at the first time and asked the printing factory to print it overnight, it was not put on sale at the first time. Instead, according to Zhang Duo's "hunger marketing method", the date of reprinting the listing of the book was postponed to October 1. Fortunately, the laws in this world are strict, and piracy is not serious and has little impact. If it is like in his previous life, Zhang Duo's practice is completely self-evless and pushes readers into the arms of pirated booksellers.

On October 1st, there was a long queue at the entrance of major Xinhua bookstores across the country. In front of Xinhua Bookstore in Bincheng, the first is called Jin Shuisheng, a thin junior high school boy with sleepy eyes and fluffy hair. Looking back, almost all the people in line are junior and senior high school students in Bincheng City. Occasionally, there are a few college students who look like them, but the number is much worse than that of junior and senior high school students.

Outside the team at the ticket office, they came to join in the lively "bottles, cans and bowls" and were a little surprised to see such a big scene. Zhang Xiaowan said excitedly, "There are a lot of people. I knew it was lively here. Wow, it seems that almost all junior and senior high schools in the city have come! That's Liu Haihong in No. 3 Middle School, Deng Gang in No. 9 Middle School, Yu Lei in No. 25 Middle School, and Sun Huihui in No. 76 Middle School.

Li Qingping said timidly, "But with so many people, do we really want to dance later?"

Zhou Zhen took out the hand-shake flower used by the cheerleader and handed it to the two of them, and said to Li Qingping, "You cried yesterday and said that you loved Xingzai so much. You must come and cheer him up today, okay?"

Li Qingping said shyly, "But there are so many people here, I... I'm a little scared!"

Zhou Yanzhen said with a big sister's expression, "What are you afraid of? Just think of cheering for the boys in the class by the basketball court!" After saying that, he took off his coat and tied it around his waist, revealing a proud figure that was not in line with his age. Just where he stood and made a casual gesture, which attracted the attention of countless boys.

Zhang Xiaowan also took off her coat and learned from Zhou Yan's appearance. She is ordinary but sweet-looking. She is a dream-loving optimist. In addition, she always has a sleepwalking expression and is most popular with boys in the class.

Seeing this, Li Qingping had no choice but to take off her coat and tie it around her waist. It's just that she belongs to the kind of person who has a lot of ideas and shrinks as soon as she comes to it. It was her proposal, but she couldn't let go when she stood on the court.

Three people stood in a triangle, and Zhou Yan stood in the front. Her left hand moved, and her slender waist twisted. The three people jumped into aerobics, shaking their hands and shaking flowers while shouting, "Xingzai, Xingzai, we love you! Xingzai, Xingzai, we love you! Xingzai, Xingzai, we love you!"

The eyes of the team were attracted in an instant. Junior and senior high school students were full of vitality and were not afraid of big trouble. They were immediately excited to see girls dancing aerobics and supporting Xingzai. Looking at the leading girl, she is not old, but she has an excellent figure, and the obscene boys are beginning to drool.

"Xingzai, Xingzai, we love you! Xingzai, Xingzai, we love you!"

Some of the people watching the bustle shouted, but more loudly applauded and whistled loudly! The whole scene suddenly became a little chaotic. A middle-aged man who came to see what the printing and sale scene was like suddenly became indignant. He is a lover of classical literature, and what he usually despises most is vernacular novels. He is jealous and hateful of the so-called Meng Nanxing. A high school student has the ability to write a so-called romance novel, which is so sought after, and there is such a beautiful girl dancing here to support. He was jealous and turned into sour water, and somehow shouted, "I love Wang Cheng, I love Wang Cheng!"

Those who queued up to buy books suddenly quit and shouted that I love Wang Cheng. This is obviously the rhythm of smashing the scene! I don't know who shouted, "Bian that old man!" Then a group of boys and girls gathered around and knocked the middle-aged man to the ground! The man covered his head and curled up on the ground, still protesting in his heart, "Damn, I'm middle-aged at most, okay? Am I that old?"

Five minutes before the bookstore opened, a young man in a suit and leather came forward and said to the first-class Jin Shuisheng, "Little classmate, can I spend 100 yuan to buy your position?"

Jin Shuisheng said, "I'm sorry, this position is very important to me."

The young man looked back at the long team and said, "But I promised my girlfriend to buy her the days of living with the stewardess. How about 200 yuan at a fixed price?

Jin Shuisheng said, "This is not a matter of money. You should work hard to buy books. For example, I have sacrificed my precious bedtime and come here to line up at 5 a.m. How can you be so clever?"

The young man shook his head and sighed and left. At this time, a woman in a suspender skirt walked to Jin Shuisheng's side. The deep career line was exposed, and Jin Shuisheng's ears and heartbeat was red.

The woman said coyly, "Hey, handsome man, I heard that "Days of Living with a Stewardess" is good. I want to buy one, but there are too many people in line. Can you bring one for me?"

Jin Shuisheng said timidly, "There are so many people queuing up behind. I can't help you take care of it!"

The woman winked and said, "Handsome boy, at worst, I'll treat you to dinner!"

Jin Shuisheng didn't dare to look at it again. He turned his head and said, "We are not close and don't know each other. Why do you want me to invite me to dinner!"

The woman was unhappy and said, "Well, a coward, I still don't look at it!"

After the woman twisted her buttocks and left, an old woman came over and said to Jin Shuisheng, "Little classmate, my granddaughter wants to watch The Days of Living with a Stewardess, but there are many people and a long team here. Can you give me your place? I love my granddaughter so much!"

Jin Shui said angrily, "Old woman, although you didn't give me money and can't invite me to dinner, if you love your granddaughter so much, I will give you my place!"

The old woman said happily, "Little classmate, you are really kind!"

Jin Shuisheng said, "Grandma, you are so kind!"

The old woman said, "You must be rewarded!"

At nine o'clock sharp, Xinhua Bookstore opened, and the turbulent crowd rushed to the bookstore. Jin Shuisheng protected the old woman and walked in. However, he was thin and kindly took care of his grandmother, and was squeezed out of the team. Just as I was about to squeeze in, I was elbowed on my face by the big man in front of me, and my nosebleeds flowed down in an instant. By the time he stopped bleeding and stopped flowing, 300 new books sent to the bookstore today have been bought! The salesperson told him to come back tomorrow!

Jin Shuisheng walked out in a daze. He was a junior high school student in 76 Middle School. He had always liked his deskmate He Li, but he did not dare to confess. Knowing that He Li wanted to watch "The Days of Living with a Stewardess", she took the initiative to say that she could buy one for her. He Li happily kissed him on the forehead, and he was about to fly happily. He got up at five o'clock this morning and came here to line up. He promised to send books to He Li today, but how can he see her now? Do you want to tell her that she didn't buy it today and have to wait for tomorrow?

Jin Shuisheng walked down the steps of the bookstore and thought about things. In addition, he had not eaten anything since he was queuing in the morning. He had a nosebleed before, stepped on the air, rolled down the steps, and fainted.

For fortunately, he woke up in a few minutes. He simply sat on the steps and held his head in frustration. At this time, a voice came: "Why don't you leave sitting here alone?"

"I just want to buy a copy of The Days of Living with Stewardess for the girl I like, but I can't even buy it at the top. God is so unfair to me!" Jin Shuisheng grabbed his hair helplessly and said.

"Stupid boy, of course you can't buy it. It's all mine!"

Jin Shuisheng looked up and saw a beautiful teenager handing him a book. It was the "Stewardess" that he couldn't ask for. There was a tall beauty standing beside the teenager, who looked very well.

Jin Shuisheng took the book and opened the title page in disbelief. He saw that the three words "Meng Nanxing" were written with a signature pen. He said excitedly, "You...you...you are the star?"

"For you!" Zhang Duo said.

After Jin Shuisheng took it, he said excitedly, "Xingzi, I love you!"

Zhang Duo gently hugged Jin Yuzhi beside him and said, "No, I already have a girlfriend!"

Looking at Jin Shuisheng with a happy face running away, Jin Yuzhi gently hit Zhang Duo's abdomen with one elbow, but Zhang Duo exaggeratedly covered his stomach and screamed.

Jin Yuzhi said hatefully, "You are really bad. If you hadn't given Uncle Jiang a bad idea of 'hunger marketing method', would this child be like this?"

Zhang Duo was also a little embarrassed and said, "This is just a means of commercial marketing, but I didn't expect that book lovers would support it so much. Why don't I ask Uncle Jiang to open up sales!"

Jin Yuzhi said, "Forget it!" If the publishing house takes a risk, it will naturally pursue the maximization of benefits, but you will not come up with such a bad idea in the future!"

Zhang Duo solemnly assured: "I will definitely not come up with such a bad idea again in the future!" All right, sister, let's go shopping!"

Jin Yuzhi stared at Zhang Duo and said, "It's not good. Who did you just hugged and who said it was your girlfriend?"

Zhang Duo took a step back to the side and said, "I couldn't make up any other reason just now!" I'm looking for you to play!"

Jin Yuzhi said angrily, "Zhang Duo, you bastard, don't step back, asshole, stop and don't run!"

Zhang Duo thought, "Don't run, you think I'm stupid!"
