In Jiangcheng Hanlinxuan Bookstore, Zhang Bowen was sitting in front of the computer and was carrying out today's inventory work.

Perhaps because the National Day is approaching, bookstores' book sales have increased a lot, and today's turnover is about 25,000 yuan.

Bookstores are actually not very profitable, and it is even better to buy a house and wait for appreciation to make a lot of money.

"Boss, watch TV! Zhang Chu is on the news again!"

The clerk who had already changed his clothes and was about to leave was holding a remote control to turn off the TV in the bookstore, but unexpectedly, what was played in the news that night was Zhang Chu's news.

Zhang Bowen was no longer surprised and said, "This is normal. That kid really can't calm down. He will be on the news in three or two days. This time, just don't have negative news!"

"No, Zhang Chu just made 100 million in one go."

"100 million yuan?" Zhang Bowen couldn't calm down at all. He stood up and walked to the TV, and retreated with the remote control for almost a minute.

This is the evening news column of CCTV News Channel. After reporting on major domestic and foreign events, it occasionally focuses on these cultural events.

[According to BBC and other media reports, the first 5 million copies of the new book "The Da Vinci Code" of Chinese writer Zhang Chu was printed in the English version in only 5 million copies. It will be held at the Frankfurt Book Fair on October 6, bringing Zhang Chu a total of 12 million pounds of prepaid manuscripts, equivalent to about 100 million yuan. It is reported that this transaction hit a new high in overseas revenue of Chinese writers, representing that we Chinese writers are gradually moving overseas and implementing them in depth...]

"It's really 100 million. Writing books is more profitable than opening a printing factory!" Zhang Bowen was stunned. Now he had only one idea, that is, when will the Chinese version start to be distributed!

"Congratulations to you, boss, Zhang Chu is so promising. What bookstore do you open in Jiangcheng? You should enjoy your life well."

"The money he earns is his, and the money I earn is mine. Xiaohui, your boyfriend is here to pick you up. Remember not to chat with him on WeChat during work tomorrow. I can see it clearly in the surveillance."

Xiaohui smiled embarrassedly, "No, there is a special situation today."

Only after the rest of the bookstore had all been exposed, Zhang Bowen showed a satisfied smile!

He never expected that his son would have such a long face. Whenever he mentioned Zhang Chu in front of his relatives and friends, everyone would have to give him a thumbs up.

"This guy makes so much money quietly, but he has to be more careful and can't learn from those in the entertainment industry."

Zhang Bowen made up his mind silently that he could not let his young son fall into depravity. People like Justin Bieber started to make trouble at a young age when they made a lot of money.

On this day, Zhang Chu and "The Da Vinci Code" attracted a lot of attention at home and abroad, attracting attention from online to offline.

Even in CCTV's evening news, it is briefly mentioned that Chinese writers rarely have highlights overseas. Now there is finally a piece of news, so of course we have to report it carefully!

Hanlin Culture Media is very busy at this moment. Everyone wants to report breaking news. Finding Zhang Chu is the best choice, but Zhang Chu doesn't live in the school, which makes many reporters run away.

Ye Shumei and Zhou Kang's mobile phones have been blown up, and people, including Nanhai Publishing Company, want to find them to verify the authenticity of the news.

But the person involved was ready to board the plane for Europe with his bag on his back, and no one recognized him on the plane!

Chinese people have the habit of not showing off their wealth and are not used to putting all their assets in front of the public.

So when these news was circulating online, Hanlin Culture Media chose to be silent, and did not deny or admit it. Let netizens guess it casually!

Passengers kept boarding the plane, while Zhang Chu sat in his position and started chatting with his relatives and friends while the plane had not yet taken off.

When news from outside was flying everywhere, almost all his parents and friends were surprised.

There are so many people asking, which makes him only set up automatic reply.

The 12 million pounds are just pre-tax income. The British people's taxes are very high, not to mention that Zhang Chu has to come back and pay taxes. Thinking about it this way is actually not as much as I imagined!

It’s just that it is more powerful and looks more shocking when it comes to promoting pre-tax income.

...

At this time, Gu Xinxue was in pain and happiness in Nanhai Publishing Company.

Random House’s big promotion is very effective. This not only promotes the English version of “Da Vinci Code”, but also greatly increases the demand for the Chinese version in China!

It was equivalent to having done nothing and getting such a good recommendation for nothing.

But when everyone shifted their attention from Random House to Nanhai Publishing Company, the comparison color was very strong.

Random House offers an advance payment of 100 million yuan. How much does your company offer?

Such a question is simply unanswered, the exchange rate advantage is too great!

Because they have always had a good cooperative relationship with Zhang Chu, they are much faster than ordinary authors in terms of settlement royalties, so they did not give much prepaid royalties.

In the contract signed this time, "Da Vinci Code" was only paid in the same proportion as before, and at first glance, 8 million yuan was a lot.

However, compared with 100 million, it is a tragic contrast, so when facing these inquiries, Gu Xinxue and other staff were even more silent and refused to tell the reporters the numbers.

It's too embarrassing to say this!

I feel ashamed of the image of a big company!

But now they are not in much mood to put it on. "The Da Vinci Code" was originally attracting much attention on the Internet and is hailed as one of the most anticipated books in the second half of the year.

Now Random Bookstore’s big investment has greatly increased the expectations of netizens. They all want to know the true face of this book!

The popularity of the Internet and the popularity of reality are extremely real. Now it has not been invested in the printing process, but dealers and retailers have started calling to book.

Originally, Nanhai Publishing Company planned to print 1 million copies for the first time and then print them in different batches.

Now it seems that everyone is very confident in it. Printing one million copies may not be enough for dealers to share, let alone put them in the warehouse!

In the past two years, retailers have tasted the sweetness of Zhang Chu. Not to mention anything else, as long as the word Zhang Chu is on this work, it will be sold faster than other books.

Not to mention popular works like "Ghost Blows Out the Light", even the literary and artistic "Farewell My Concubine" can be sold quickly on the bookshelf.

This goods are sold very quickly, and the rest are often sold a few books a week.
