Chapter 822
The originally quiet courtyard became noisy.
After choosing a good day, the decoration company began to start construction and demolish some of the things that need to be rectified, of course, without affecting the overall building.
The dust and noise were a bit loud. Zhang Chu was wearing a mask and Zhou Kang, Ye Shumei and others stood outside the yard. He came to witness the project with his own eyes. After all, it would cost him nearly ten million yuan just to renovate it.
"Fortunately, the neighbors are still far apart, otherwise they will be complained!"
Zhou Kang shook his head and said, "Many neighbors on your side actually don't live here. This is the real high-end rich area in Yanjing."
Living in a villa is out of the way, and now all rich people buy courtyards!
Zhang Chu yawned. Yesterday he talked to editor Gu Xinxue about where "In the Name of People" needs to be refined, from around 3:00 pm to twelve pm.
Everything is very detailed, from punctuation to typos and words in the wrong context, to the ending of the characters.
Of course, Zhang Chu did not fully adopt it. After all, this was just a refinement, not a change to another novel!
"The opinions given by the relevant departments are to allow publication. It is estimated that the Nanhai Publishing Company will be happy to have the protection of Shangfang's sword." Zhou Kang whispered to report what happened recently, "No official novel has been approved by the relevant departments before."
Sometimes it is a bad thing to be involved with the official, but sometimes it is a good thing.
But now Zhang Chu is very curious: "How much does "In the Name of People" have about sales? You can watch it on the Internet now, so there shouldn't be many people?"
Ye Shumei shook her head: "If it is done properly, it should continue your record of breaking one million in the first week. You should know that physical books readers use online sites to read books, after all, because this is contrary to their long-term reading habits."
Zhou Kang added, "That's right. Although you have already subscribed to tens of thousands of people on the site, it is still a relatively small number compared to the purchase of physical books that can be purchased by millions of people. I guess there are many people waiting for you to publish physical books, and even some readers who have read serials want to buy books to collect them."
The audience of online novels is quite radiating, but if you want to take the lead in the entire reading market, you have to rely on physical books!
It just so happens that Zhang Chu was the sales king last year.
If nothing unexpected happens this year, it should be able to replicate the success of last year.
Because this year, Zhang Chu will write down the last six volumes of Ghost Blowing Light in one breath. Even if the first Jingjue Ancient City cannot be sold, the six volumes are definitely not a small number!
"If you don't say anything else, you can see the clues from "The Fifteenth Year of Wanli". This historical work can sell nearly two million copies, but recently, it has returned to the top of the single-day sales list with your new book! If two books continue to sell like this, let alone two million, three million, there will be a chance."
Zhang Chu has never been worried about the sales of "The Fifteenth Year of Wanli". This movie is a super long-term sales route and has the opportunity to become a classic.
"Since that's the case, I won't worry about anything anymore. Uncle Zhou, let's evacuate first. There is nothing good about the construction here."
Zhou Kang looked at his watch and found that it was only half an hour before Zhang Chu's next class. He hurriedly said, "We have to hurry up, otherwise it would be troublesome if we are late."
Ye Shumei waved her hand, "You two go to school, I'll go back to the company. Today, there are several authorization agreements to be signed. Now, boss, you can make money even if you lie down."
With the convenience of Hanlinxuan Bookstore on the campus of Yanjing University, Zhang Chu not only applied for a campus pass for his car, but also had a pass for Zhou Kang and store manager Zhong Liangping, so he didn't have to queue up to get a permit.
If you walk to the teaching building from the school gate, you will definitely be late!
Yanjing is an international metropolis with a large area and many vehicles.
Even though the Siheyuan is not far from the east gate of Yenching University, it will definitely not be enough if you encounter traffic jams or other situations in this half hour.
Zhang Chu sat in the back seat of the car quite calmly. Being late is not an urgent matter, but life is also important.
"Uncle Zhou, don't be anxious. Just drive slowly and pay attention to safety. I will tell my classmates and ask him to ask me to take a leave before class."
"You are a celebrity now. If the media knows that you are late, you will probably exaggerate and say that you are about to drop out of school!"
There are not such rumors on the Internet, there are so many magical news.
After hearing this, Zhang Chu patted his thigh and smiled, "If I drop out of school, my old man probably would have to fly to Yanjing overnight to break my legs."
"That's for sure. How many people can be admitted to Yanjing University in Jiangcheng every year? Anyway, among our classmates' children, you only do the best. This is probably like the rural scholars who took the imperial examination as a Jinshi or Juren in ancient times, and they are considered to be a glorious family!"
Media reporters and marketing accounts do everything they can to click on traffic, and it is nothing to arrange fake news.
It’s a conscience to start with a picture, and the content is entirely up to the editor. At least there is a picture!
There are more pictures, just a rumor on the Internet, and people familiar with the matter revealed that the relevant person introduced it, and then they started talking nonsense.
Zhang Chu was a little bored sitting in the passenger seat of the car. After sending An Mi a WeChat message to ask for leave, he entered his own Weibo.
At this time, the WeChat message notification can no longer be displayed, and there are even more people sending private messages.
Most of the comments were not praising him for his good writing, but urging him to write a new book as soon as possible!
"The political task was finally completed! Zhang Chu is about to release a new book, I can't wait!"
"Don't write officialdom or youth love stories in the new book. Another book similar to "The Da Vinci Code" will make me excited!"
"After the global outbreak of "The Da Vinci Code", I wrote these two books willfully, which is simply disgusting my own rhythm of too many fans. Can I give some surprises in the next book? If I continue to be so willful, I will lose my fans!"
"I have been enduring for a long time and I haven't wanted to pour cold water on it. Zhang Chu, you have many readers and many famous works, but that is not a reason or excuse to waste your talent. We old readers are actually a little worried. It is not a solution to continue like this."
"I was shocked after reading the comments! Do you think "The Forest of Norway" is that kind of simple love story? Do you think "In the Name of People" is an ordinary official novel? Don't you know that people in the comments circle are praising these two works? If you haven't read it, I really strongly recommend you to read it."
"New book, I want to read new book ahhhhhhhhhh!"
"Since you have finished writing "In the Name of the People" in advance, it's better to publish a new book in advance!"
The fast pace is filled with every corner of life, at all ages, and in all walks of life. It seems that if you accidentally fall behind, you will be eliminated by the times and society.
Zhang Chu had just finished serializing the new book, and before he even had time to submit the physical book, the readers united and began to urge the new book!
It would be fine if it was an occasional reader, but the number of readers who urged the new book was not one or two thousand, almost tens of thousands.
Obviously it is impossible for so many accounts to be opened by others to urge them to update?
Zhang Chu misses the slow and leisurely time of the past now, and has enough time to look back, reflect and organize his bags of life.
