Chapter 65 Old Zhao's Shock

"Could it be that kid wrote "The Da Vinci Code"?" Old Zhao asked in surprise.

"Yes, I didn't know it at first. It wasn't until yesterday when I was passing by the city square that the speech was playing on the screen, and I noticed it. Then I went to the bookstore and bought a copy of "The Da Vinci Code". The author’s name is Ye Chen!” Old Li said with great satisfaction when he saw the shocked look on Old Zhao’s face.

"That should be right. That child's name is Ye Chen. I didn't expect him to write "The Da Vinci Code". If it was him, maybe this novel would have a good score. After all, from his speech Look, this kid has read a lot of books, but it's a pity that he shouldn't be chosen on this day." Ye Chen had a very good impression on Lao Zhao, and now that he knew that "The Da Vinci Code" was written by Ye Chen, Lao Zhao also Some pity.

"So, you don't think much of Ye Chen's "The Da Vinci Code"?" Lao Li said with interest.

"From the bottom of my heart, I really like this kid, but after all, he is facing Cheng Ji, and this kid is really too young! And he is an unknown newcomer, from "The Da Vinci Code" and "Yu Hua" was published at the same time, but it can be seen that there is almost no publicity compared to "Yu Hua", and the publishing house is not optimistic about this novel. Optimistically, it would be good to sell more than [-] copies on the first day. "Old Zhao shook his head and said.

Seeing that Lao Li seemed to disagree, Lao Zhao asked curiously: "Why, don't you think so?"

Old Li nodded when he heard this and said: "Old Zhao, you still underestimate this child. I suggest you buy a copy of "The Da Vinci Code". This is a novel that even Han Chengdu published a long review in our newspaper. I have also read it. Believe me, this is a surprising novel. It is definitely worth the money. And I have a hunch that Ye Chen will give us a big surprise like that speech. Just wait and see. Soon!"

After hearing what Lao Li had said, Lao Zhao felt a little dissatisfied, and was about to say something more, but seeing that Lao Li had turned his head away, he could only endure it.

It's just that I was a little curious in my heart why Lao Li was so optimistic about Ye Chen's "The Da Vinci Code". After thinking for a long time, Lao Zhao still felt that his analysis was correct. The possibility of a successful counterattack on the first day's sales is too low, so low that it can be ignored. Although Lao Zhao did not expect Han Cheng's endorsement, Lao Zhao still insisted on his own judgment.

Maybe Han Cheng just posted the book review for the purpose of encouraging newcomers?Although this possibility is small, it is not impossible!
However, Lao Zhao didn't say any more. It won't be long before the first-day sales of the two books should come out, and it will be clear at a glance which one is higher and which is lower.

Not long after, Zheng Wei appeared in front of Lao Zhao with a smile on his face.

"All the reporters and friends have been waiting for a long time. I was busy with statistics just now, so I'm sorry!" Zheng Wei said.

Everyone expressed that you are welcome.

After being polite for a while, Zheng Wei didn't talk nonsense. After all, this is not an official press conference, so Zheng Wei directly copied the first-day sales of the two books before he came, and now he just needs to distribute them.

Lao Zhao also quickly got the first day's sales data, and hurriedly glanced at it.

The first day of "Yu Hua" sold [-] copies.

Old Zhao nodded. After all, it was Cheng Ji, so it was quite reasonable to achieve this sales volume.

Looking down, Old Zhao was shocked!Even the first reaction was whether the data statisticians of the publishing house made a mistake!
How could "The Da Vinci Code" sell [-] copies on the first day!

You must know that in China, a book with an annual sales volume of 20 is called a bestseller, and an annual sales volume of [-] is a super bestseller.

And "The Da Vinci Code" sold [-] copies on the first day, you must know that this is only a city in Qingyang City!An unknown newcomer author can achieve this result in his first book. Is this the rhythm of rushing to a bestseller?
Lao Zhao really couldn't think of the reason why "The Da Vinci Code" sold so well, and even wondered if it was a fake hype by the publishing house?

This is not impossible, some writers who hit the street will privately use appropriate methods with the publishing house to falsify sales, in an attempt to increase sales through hype.

But soon Lao Zhao overturned his idea.

Those who do this are usually small publishing houses whose performance is dying. Huayu Publishing House, as one of the largest publishing houses in Qingyang City, will definitely not do such a thing. Is it true or false.

Is "The Da Vinci Code" really so good-looking?Lao Zhao suddenly made up his mind to buy a copy and read it later.

After congratulating Zheng Wei, Lao Zhao and Lao Li left Huayu Publishing House at random.

"Old Li, I underestimated Ye Chen this time, tsk tsk, 17 years old, his first novel sold [-] copies on the first day, what a formidable young man! I remember when Cheng Ji published his first new book "Ghost Eyes" With a daily sales volume of less than [-] copies, he is known as a new star in the literary world. Ye Chen's outstanding achievements will definitely make the old-timers in Qingyang City's literary world stunned! Some of our manuscripts have been written today. !” Old Zhao said lightly.

"This book deserves this kind of praise. If you want me to say, "The Da Vinci Code" is nothing compared to "The Da Vinci Code". A book worth thinking about, Lao Zhao, I strongly recommend you to read it again!" Lao Li said firmly.

Lao Zhao looked at Lao Li with a serious face, and nodded silently.

After separating from Lao Li, Lao Zhao was about to go home. When passing by a bookstore, Lao Zhao hesitated for a while, and finally walked into the bookstore.

When Lao Zhao came out of the bookstore, he already had a book called "The Da Vinci Code" in his hand!
Back home, Lao Zhao is preparing to finish today's press release first. The 17-year-old newcomer author sold out on the first day. Suspenseful!
In a split second, many exciting headlines flashed through Lao Zhao's head. He was about to pick up his pen and start writing, when he inadvertently glanced at "The Da Vinci Code" on the desk, and Lao Zhao looked at the time.

"It's still early, why don't you see what's so amazing about "The Da Vinci Code"? Han Cheng's endorsement aside, even Lao Li recommended me to read it."

With this in mind, Lao Zhao opened "The Da Vinci Code", and he was fascinated by it.

The whole day, Old Zhao spent in the study, during which time he didn't even have time to eat, and only the sound of flipping books was left in the room from time to time.

Old Zhao was fascinated by reading it, and it wasn't until night that Old Zhao, who had unknowingly flipped through the entire book, slowly put down the book.

"Now I know why "The Da Vinci Code" sold [-] copies on the first day." Old Zhao thought silently.

Taking the pen, Lao Zhao began to write today's manuscript.
