The west. ?
Random House.
This is the largest publishing company in the West, formed by the combination of Penguin Publishing Group, a subsidiary of the British Pearson Group, and Random House, a subsidiary of the German Bertelsmann Group. After the combination, it became the world’s largest book publishing group, accounting for nearly 25% of the global publishing business The market…
a meeting.
Two high-level officials responsible for the introduction of works from other countries are vying for each other.
“Tom, with all due respect, the “Fairy Tale King” you introduced at a huge cost is difficult to bring enough benefits to our company. I don’t think a fairy tale work is worth looking forward to…”
“Jerry, ” “The King of Fairy Tales” is very popular in the Dragon Kingdom!”
“This is not enough to explain the problem, the possibility that the Dragon Kingdom Fire Book will be popular here is too low, and the cultural differences make our readers here not buy it, you should be better than this. I know…”
“Before saying this, I think you need to read this fairy tale!”
“Sorry, I’m an adult, it’s hard to read a fairy tale, maybe my eight-year-old son will be interested. Well, oh, maybe my eight-year-old son wouldn’t be interested in a fairy tale from the East…”
Tom and Jerry are good friends who love each other and kill each other.
The executives at Random House have long been aware of this, and everyone is accustomed to their daily confrontation. Just when the atmosphere between the two became more and more tense, Galio, the editor-in-chief, acted as an old man: ” There is no need for the two of you to quarrel any more. In May, “The King of Fairy Tales” will be tested by the market. Luoyang is the most famous writer in Long Kingdom and the winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature. Our readers here are not unfamiliar with him…”
“I don’t think the Nobel Prize can help sales.”
Jerry curled his lips. It has been proven over the years that the sales of Nobel Prize winners’ works are not high, because they are not commercialized enough, so they are all niche. , which is a little higher.
Tom snorted, “Jerry, since you’re not convinced, we might as well take a gamble.”
Jerry sneered: “Okay, then we’ll be the old rules, take a gamble, if the sales of this work exceed 10 million within a month , I’ll invite everyone to dinner and apologize to you, even if you lose.”
“Okay!”
Tom nodded immediately.
As an old editor who has read “The King of Fairy Tales”, Tom is sure that his vision is not bad. This fairy tale work he introduced will definitely bring great surprises to Western readers!
————
Time just passed bit by bit.
In the days to come, Random House will do as much propaganda as they should. Under the banner of “Nobel Prize Winners” in Luoyang, they start from the status of “sales maniacs” in Luoyang, or use Luoyang’s “popularity” The author of the comic “Dragon Ball” made a big fuss about his identity and carried out a lot of publicity for “Fairy Tale King”.
Finally, May 1st is here!
This “Fairy Tales King”, which made the top management of Random House disagree, finally appeared on the shelves of major bookstores. Many readers who had been attracted by the propaganda before obediently took out their wallets. Of course, this number is not too many. Luoyang is in the west. Although his reputation is not small, if it is big, it is not to mention the so-called market appeal…
“I have consulted with the investigation department, and the daily performance of “Fairy Tale King” is very average!”
Jerry said Tom said that his personal relationship with Tom is OK, but the two often disagree at work. For example, this time, Jerry was very dissatisfied with Tom’s behavior of spending a lot of money on “The King of Fairy Tale”.
Too much money!
Value does not match!
However, Tom is not in a hurry, using the proverb of southern Fujian, that is, the old god is there: “This is only the sun, after all, Luoyang is not a writer with amazing appeal like Theking, so this is not enough to explain any problems, a week, I believe In a week’s time, the situation will be completely reversed.”
Jerry laughed: “It’s ridiculous, you actually compare Luoyang in the Dragon Country to Teacher Theking?”
Tom shook his head and said, “It’s not ridiculous, Jie. Rui, I know you like Mr. Theking. Mr. Theking is indeed a well-deserved world-class writer, but I believe that in the near future, Luoyang will also become a world-class master with the same status as Theking!”
“You think the time can be reversed in a week. ”
Maybe it won’t take a week. What is more important than the promotion is the quality of the work. I believe that with the quality of “The King of Fairy Tales”, no one will be disappointed!”
—————
It doesn’t take a week . time.
On May 4th, the fourth day after “Fairy Tale King” was launched in the foreign book market, Random House suddenly held an emergency meeting. All the company’s top management was present, even the editor-in-chief of Random House, Adrian, who rarely appeared. Appearing in the meeting, the high-level people were all wondering, not knowing why an emergency meeting was suddenly held.
“Guys, I want to praise someone here!”
At the beginning of the meeting, the editor-in-chief Adrian looked at all the high-level executives, and finally his eyes fell on Tom: “Tom, the “Fairy Tale King” introduced by you suddenly suddenly happened yesterday. The sales have exploded, 32 million copies have been sold, and all three large bookstores in our country have sold out. This is the fourth day that “The King of Fairy Tales” has been on the 6th market. This work is likely to be our most popular book in years. A successful introduction…”
Boom!
Everyone was shocked!
Jerry’s ears roared!
He looked at the editor-in-chief incredulously: “Mr. editor-in-chief, you are saying that “The King of Fairy Tales” sold more than 30 million copies in just four days, this should be a joke, it’s just a It’s a fairy tale, just a fairy tale from the East…”
Adrian said seriously: “I don’t like to joke.”
Tom’s face showed a complacent smile: “Thank you editor-in-chief, in order to win the agency of “The King of Fairy Tales” , we also spent a lot of money…”
“It’s all worth it!”
Adrian, who has always been calm, couldn’t help but shout: “Hey guys, we’ve completed a great introduction, let’s start , this “The King of Fairy Tales” must be promoted with S-level standards. I have to say that there may be a world-class master of fairy tales who is about to be born – Antun, when you go back to the meeting, remember to bring me two copies of “The King of Fairy Tales” , the bookstore is out of stock, and my two children are arguing to see it again!”
…
the meeting continues.
Jerry couldn’t hear what the editor-in-chief was saying.
After the meeting, Tom patted Jerry, who was still stunned, on the shoulder, and said with a smile, “I’m willing to admit defeat, don’t forget to invite everyone to dinner tonight!”
Jerry glared at Tom with a complicated mood, and was about to speak. The phone rang.
Jerry connected the phone and said with restraint, “Dear son, Dad has something to deal with tonight, and he can’t go home until late, so you can just have dinner with Mom, you don’t have to wait for me.” The
other end of
the phone , said in a tender voice: “Okay, besides, Dad, you remember to buy me a copy of “The King of Fairy Tales” when you came back at night. I saw that my classmate bought it today, it’s really cool…”
Jerry: “… …”
