Chapter 155 The Magical Butterfly Effect
Qianzhou was in a very happy mood throughout December.
At the beginning, it was because, in addition to "I'm Really Not a Star" and "Literary Era", he had published several other books with an average subscription of more than 1,000.
There are two excellent books among them.
Then there is "Literary Age", which is praised for its early bedtime routine and taller growth. The average subscription has slowly increased to around 2500. As long as it is given a recommended position by the end of the year, it is estimated that it will have a chance to reach the threshold of high-quality products.
He then added another general to his command.
This is quite exciting for a new editor.
It is not only a recognition of his personal vision and ability, but also means real salary commission and bonus.
But what Qianzhou didn't expect was that since the beginning of December, the data of the book "I'm Really Not a Star" has skyrocketed at an incredible speed.
Especially this month, he hasn't had time to arrange a recommendation position for "I'm Really Not a Celebrity". It is a completely natural growth rate, and it can still maintain at least 1000 new collections every day.
And it’s not less.
In the first week, Qianzhou didn't even notice it.
After all, you have to open the background page yourself to view the background data.
Editors usually focus more on new books.
For old books that have been put on the shelves, it is usually considered normal to read them once a week.
Especially for a game like "Reignited", which has already broken through the boutique line but its own performance is far from ten thousand orders, it can only be put there for the time being.
It was not until the middle of the month that Qianzhou took his usual look at the data of the book Rekindled and discovered something was wrong.
How come the average subscription has increased to six or seven thousand?
Wasn’t it just over 4,000 at the beginning of the month?
When Qianzhou checked the collection data for this month, he was stunned and didn't quite understand.
Without any recommendation support, the number of collections increased by 20,000 to 30,000 in just half a month.
Is this still a human being?
Could it be that because of its good word of mouth, readers spontaneously recommended it and attracted a lot of readers?
But hasn’t this increase lasted too long?
It was only at this time that Qianzhou ran to the rekindled comment section to take a look and slowly figured out the situation.
It turned out that Chongran had written an original song in the book, and he actually found someone to sing it and posted it online.
As a result, this song was picked up by a TV series and used as the theme song, and it became a hit.
Qianzhou shared this incident in the editor group. Whether it was the editor-in-charge of the same group or the editor-in-chief Hongdou, everyone looked confused. They had never encountered such a situation before.
So this matter began to spread in various offices of Wenyue Group like a piece of fresh gossip.
If things ended here, it would be fine.
It's nothing more than that a certain author is really talented and lucky, and relying on the traffic from outside the site, he caught this huge fortune and reaped the benefits.
According to the current trend, the average subscription of "I'm Really Not a Celebrity" will exceed 8,000 by the end of the month.
It is estimated that there will be 10,000 orders next month.
You have to know that this was 2014 subscriptions in , and the entire site has only accumulated two or three hundred books over the past decade.
And this is cumulative.
If you look at the books that are currently being serialized and have tens of thousands of subscriptions, I guess there are less than 50 books in the entire Qidian.
Just look at the rankings of "I'm Really Not a Celebrity" in recent days and you will know.
The monthly ticket list has ranked third in the urban category, and the top two are both very well-known urban masters.
In the monthly ticket total list, "I'm Really Not a Star" has ranked 28th.
The bestseller list is ranked based on sales data, and because of the continuous support from readers during this period, it has reached the 19th place in the entire site.
For a new author, this is undoubtedly a miracle.
And under such circumstances, a new employee in the operations department was assigned an internship.
The supervisor asked each of them to find an online article that they were interested in, analyze and plan it, and come up with a suitable promotion plan.
One of the employees liked the book "I'm Really Not a Celebrity" very much, so he used it as a case.
So...
[Rekindle]: We do know each other, what’s wrong?
[Qianzhou]: I actually know you... You're so awesome.
[Rekindle]: If the editor wants an autograph, I can get one for you.
[Qianzhou]: No, no, no, that's not what I meant. I just want to tell you something good.
[Rekindle]: Hmm?
[Qianzhou]: It’s like this. The operation department has come up with a planning proposal. I heard that your song "Annual Rings" was given to Yuan Wanqing to sing.
[Qianzhou]: And this song became popular.
[Qianzhou]: The operations department thought about sending an invitation to Yuan Wanqing’s work email, asking if she was willing to accept an interview cooperation activity from our side.
[Qianzhou]: Actually, it was just a try. After all, although our Wenyue Group is affiliated to Penguin, Qidian basically has the status of a godson and does not provide much support.
[Qianzhou]: Yuan Wanqing’s popularity is very high now, so she may not pay attention to us.
[Qianzhou]: Who would have known that the email sent out by the operations department in the afternoon received a reply in the evening, saying that there was no problem, and then gave us a few free times to choose from.
[Qianzhou]: Holy shit! I just received the news and came to you right away. This is a great opportunity, brother, you must grab it! Good boy... He was so excited that he even called me brother.
The corners of Li Luo's mouth twitched, and he always felt uneasy in his heart.
[Rekindle]: So...is there anything I need to cooperate with in this activity?
[Qianzhou]: I’m just asking you, are you free this weekend?
[Rekindle]: Well... there should be.
Li Luo's inner uneasiness became more and more obvious.
[Qianzhou]: Then can you come to the city at that time? Yuan Wanqing's company is in Yuhang City. We will send someone over to conduct an exclusive interview with her.
[Qianzhou]: At that time, we will invite you and Yuan Wanqing to have a simple conversation and exchange, and talk about each other's mental journey and so on.
[Qianzhou]: What do you think?
Let me see?
Li Luo felt goosebumps all over his body.
I don’t think it’s that good!
Which operator came up with this incredible operation? !
He was a little embarrassed to meet Aunt Yuan.
Good for you!
Not only did they arrange for me to meet, but they also wanted me to share my own experience in writing the novel?
What do I have to share?
Can you share why you want to write harem fiction? !
and……
[Rekindled]: Boss, I’m still young and I don’t want to show my face. If I’m recognized at school, I’ll be very distressed.
[Qianzhou]: Oh, this one.
[Qianzhou]: It’s not a big problem. We can help you cover your face. You just need to stay out of the camera and simply accept the interview.
[Qianzhou]: After all, Yuan Wanqing’s face is the focus, and your main focus is to produce a work.
This is a bit heartbreaking.
But after the editor said that, Li Luo was much more receptive.
[Rekindle]: What happens after the interview? What is the overall plan?
[Qianzhou]: Oh, this, I forgot to tell you.
[Qianzhou]: Your book now has more than 900,000 words, right?
[Qianzhou]: According to regulations, books with one million words or more will be ranked according to their performance. The higher the ranking, the earlier they will enter the distribution channel.
[Qianzhou]: If you accept this interview, we will arrange a channel for your book the next day.
[Qianzhou]: Combined with the full network push of subsequent interview content, the audience is directed to the main site or various channel distribution platforms to securely receive this wave of traffic.
[Qianzhou]: Chongran, you have to think carefully. Once the effect goes viral this time, your royalties will be more than the tens of thousands of yuan now.
[Qianzhou]: Earning 100,000 yuan a month is not a dream!
[Qianzhou]: Other people start looking for jobs after graduating from college, but you are already a winner in life even before you even go to college!
[Qianzhou]: If you can’t make up your mind, you can also communicate with your parents tomorrow. I am always available to communicate with you.
It can be seen that Qianzhou tried his best to persuade the readers with all his heart for this book which may become a hit.
Li Luo thought about it and understood the many benefits of it. He remembered that he had originally promised Yan Zhusheng that he would go to her house to meet Aunt Yuan this Saturday.
So I gritted my teeth.
[Rekindle]: I understand, editor. Please arrange it for me. I will go there on the weekend.
[Qianzhou]: Okay!
[Qianzhou]: If there is no problem on your side, I will reply to the operation department immediately.
[Qianzhou]: Just wait this weekend, I will come with them then.
[Qianzhou]: If your parents are worried, I can go to your house to pick you up directly. It’s also okay for your parents to go with you. I’ll make the arrangements.
[Rekindle]: We’ll talk about this later.
[Qianzhou]: OK, that’s it for now, let’s talk later.
After finishing the private chat with the editor, Li Luo was a little amused.
He himself did not expect that just one song, "Annual Rings", would trigger such a long series of chain reactions.
I originally thought I just sold a song and made tens of thousands of dollars.
As a result, through the relationship between "Annual Rings" and Yan Zhusheng, he got to know Yuan Wanqing and Luo Fei, got in touch with Huayue Film and Television Company, and sold two more songs.
The theme song "Annual Rings" made Yuan Wanqing popular again because of the popularity of the TV series "Yao Chi Fairy Love", which received mixed reviews.
In the end, it even affected the promotion priority of his novel within Wenyue Group.
I have to say, sometimes things are really strange.
Li Luo wrote books in his previous life, and Qidian’s channel distribution had gradually declined, so he basically never enjoyed the benefits of channel distribution.
But I’ve also heard that those channel bosses in the past might have average performance on their main sites, but if they had millions of words on their channels, they could make a lot of money.
If I can seize the opportunity this time...
Li Luo stroked his chin and thought for a while, wondering if he would have the money to buy a shop in the subway right away?
