The result of not participating in this kind of writer exchange activities is that you can’t recognize who is the face-blind at first glance.

Fortunately, the organizer was very considerate and placed a small sign on the table of each writer, so that the rest of them could glance at the sign before talking about it.

Not every writer appears under his real name, and many people take pseudonyms, so sometimes it seems that a burly man actually has a cute name, or a woman who dresses up carefully in the position of a strong man’s name.

Since last year, Zhang Chu's location has been at the center, and this year is of course no exception.

"Long time no see Xiao Zhang. I heard that you have a good income this year!"

"It's all about readers' love, and there may not be so much next year."

Zhang Chu replied modestly that if there are no so many movies released next year, the dividends will naturally be much less.

If you think about it carefully, "The Da Vinci Code" will be screened next spring, and the rest of "Ghost Blows Out the Light 2" has just begun filming. Although the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy has been arranged on the set, it has not officially started.

The global dividends of Hollywood movies are often tens of millions of dollars, and without the income here, it is equivalent to reducing the RMB by about 100 million.

In fact, Zhang Chu didn't know the middle-aged man who had just chatted with him. He just regarded him as a senior and tried his best to respect him.

In fact, many writers' books have had big battles with him on the book sales list, and of course the result is clear at a glance!

Now there is no so-called big-name writer who releases new books at the same time as Zhang Chu. You can avoid them as much as possible, and you must avoid them if you cannot avoid them!

Sometimes I even avoid new books, but I can't avoid old books.

Just like the book market in November and December, Zhang Chu clearly has no intention of publishing physical books.

Many publishing companies are busy putting their new books on the market, wanting to make the sales rankings during the off-season, but who knew they would encounter the super strong rebound of "Boys Pi"!

This old book was not so strong in the early days of its release, and it actually won the top spot in the sales list for two months.

It can be seen how powerful an excellent movie has on the original work!

It has obviously sold several million copies, but in the past two months it has been more than last year.

With the popularity of the movie, it will naturally ignite the book market. Many readers will go to the bookstore after watching the movie to see this original work that is fascinating.

Many bookstores even have shortages of supply, because it takes more than a day or two to organize printing to transport.

If New Year's Day hadn't come to the forefront, "Youth Pi" would even have hoped to compete for this year's sales championship!

It doesn’t matter if the movie is released, at least it will continue to be popular until after the Oscars.

On the left is Qiao Situo, the author of "Reincarnation", and on the right is another girl-like palace and house-fighting master. They are almost all authors of physical books and various copyrights. They are considered top figures among best-selling writers.

"Old Qiao, you claim to be the beauty in our book industry. Now look at him, he is a serious young man. This is what he calls himself a beautiful and elegant person with poetry and books!"

The strings are the third place on the revenue list this year. The popularity of the two popular dramas "The Night of Tang Dynasty" and "The Legend of the Harem" has increased sharply, and the copyright fees and physical books have increased significantly.

Qiao Situo is much more stable. He is an old author who has been famous for a long time. He looked at Zhang Chu and asked in a low voice: "I heard that you are going to publish a new book on New Year's Day. Let me reveal it to me so that you can avoid being hurt by you."

"It's not a new book anymore. It's just a few volumes of "Ghost Blows Out the Light" published together, and it's directly to the finale. They are all serialized contents on the Internet, so don't worry. I'm still afraid of meeting you old seniors, so I will have to cry at that time!"

Zhang Chu spread his hands open, pretending to be helpless.

Qiao Situo shook his head, "Brother, you're too much. As soon as "Ghost Blows Out the Light" is released, who will compete with me? I have written a new book, but I don't know if readers are buying it. I just hope that the farther away from you, the better. You probably won't publish other works except "Ghost Blows Out the Light" recently? How about leaving me the schedule in early March?"

Best-selling writers like this will basically vent their breath in advance when publishing new books, and try to avoid them as much as possible in principle to avoid both sides.

But there are also those who unite and rely on competition to increase popularity, and use each other as targets, so that the cohesion of fans and readers will be further improved, thereby stimulating sales even more.

Of course, this method is only suitable for two people with popularity and status.

If the gap is too big, it will only be a bloody massacre, completely one-sided!

In addition to Zhang Chu's works, the previous first week's sales record was the result of the two tigers fighting each other. One was more than 1.7 million copies in the first week and the other was more than 1.5 million copies in the first week. Readers completely took out the model of fighting in the fan circle to compete.

I really don’t know how to read the book you buy by yourself and go home.

This result greatly consumes readers' enthusiasm, resulting in almost zero book potential!

The sales volume in the first week was so high, but the cumulative sales volume was only about 3 million copies, and it did not explode at all.

Zhang Chu doesn't like killing chickens to get eggs. On the other hand, Nanhai Publishing Company cannot find him a competitor that can match.

Although "Ghost Blows Out the Light" has been completed, its popularity has not decreased at all, so Qiao Situo has only left two months of gap.

He was confident of competing with the rest of the people, but he was worried that Zhang Chu's new book would come out halfway!

"Depending on the situation, there should be no physical books released in March. "What Things in the Ming Dynasty" will wait for the Weibo and blog series to be released together. Now we are still talking about the early Ming Dynasty, and it will be a long time to the end of the Ming Dynasty."

Zhang Chu did not tell them that he would cooperate with BBC to shoot documentaries. Now the new book can’t even see the shadow, and it is completely unknown when it will be launched!

People's hearts are separated from their stomachs, so it is better to keep some things confidential.

Qiao Situo reached out and shook Zhang Chu: "Then let's say that, my new book will be placed on you."

"No, no, Teacher Qiao, you are too modest. My dad likes your book very much. He will ask you for an autograph book at that time."

Although I am called my brother, Qiao Situo is already in his forties, "I have signed the schoolbag."

While a few people were talking, the host on the stage read their names. These best-selling authors will come on stage to receive their certificates of honor and certificates. They look like they are sent to kindergartens and are very ashamed.
Chapter completed!
