What to do if you become famous too fast

……

Ten o'clock in the morning UK time.

Murdo, who had just arrived in the United States, received another call from the president of The Times.This time, the president's voice was full of shock and disbelief.

Murdo just heard a few words, and immediately exclaimed:

"What? Sold out in four hours?!"

Chapter 0691 Crazy!additional issue!Issue again!

Murdo didn't expect that he heard such amazing news as soon as he got off the plane.

He immediately asked, "How much is the circulation today?"

The president said: "The Times has issued a total of 70 copies today, an increase of 5 copies compared to usual."

Murdo asked: "How long did it take to sell out 85 newspapers yesterday?"

The president said, "Ten hours."

Murdeau: "Has there been a similar panic buying situation for other newspapers?"

The president said: "Not at all."

Murdo took a deep breath: "Yesterday, the news of Prince William's wedding was published in the newspaper, and it took ten hours to sell out 85 copies of the newspaper. There is no major news today, nor any special reports, but It took only ten hours to sell out. Other newspapers are normal, and there must be a reason we don’t know. You must immediately send people out to investigate, and you must know the reason behind it as soon as possible.”

The president quickly said: "Boss, I have already sent a team of reporters out to investigate and interview, and it is estimated that the results will be available in half an hour at most."

"it is good!"

After hanging up the phone, Murdo stood quietly, frowning slightly.

As a media tycoon, it was an unforgivable mistake that his media empire did not receive any news in advance of such a weird incident happening to his own newspaper.If the news empire cannot control the first-hand news and discover any secrets in the first place, the consequences will be disastrous.

It seems that after this incident, he will carry out some reform measures.

Only ten minutes passed.

Murdoch received the message.

The president said: "The age group of users who buy "The Times" today is concentrated between 10 and 30 years old. 40% of these people are old users, and 60% are new users. Almost all new users buy "The Times" The newspaper is not for the news information on it, but for a novel. This novel is "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" serialized in our newspaper by Master Wang Huan."

"what?!"

Murdo exclaimed again, with disbelief in his tone.

The president continued: "According to the feedback from front-line reporters, Master Wang Huan's novel seems to have a magical power. It has almost attracted the entire public, and many British people have been attracted by it. And there are many other reasons People who can’t buy The Times have flocked to our official website and INS to abuse us.”

With the experience of a media tycoon in Murdoch, Rao didn't come to his senses for a long time after hearing what the president said.

I don't know how long it took.

Moore opened his mouth and said, "You mean, the novel "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" has already become a big hit just because of the effect of our newspaper's serialization for three days?"

The president said: "According to the current situation, this is the case."

"..."

Murdeau was silent for a long time again, and ordered: "Continue to ask reporters to do more survey samples. If the news is reliable, then an additional 20 copies will be issued tomorrow."

20 copies!

The president was shocked.

For Prince William's wedding, they only issued 20 more copies.

What is the magic of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone"?He read a few chapters carefully just now, but he couldn't get the coolness in it at all.

But everything is based on the market, he nodded and agreed: "Okay, I will give you an order, and the "Times" will issue 80 copies tomorrow!"

Murdo gave a few more key points.

After the two finished talking, Murdoch pondered for a while and made several calls.

"Lauren, go and investigate something on INS, about Wang Huan's novel "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone"..."

"Brück, prepare a supplement in the Americas, and maybe you will publish a novel in three days."

"Erma, the Australian newspaper is going to add additional publications, send more staff, and wait for my news in three days..."

"Shelly..."

"Lyan..."

Orders were issued one by one.

It wasn't until a few minutes later that Mo Erduo put down his hand and muttered to himself: "Chinese people say that Wang Huan is the creator of legends, and wherever he passes by, he will leave legendary footprints. Could it be that after he went abroad this time? , can also create a legend in the world? I want to see now, whether "Harry Potter", a novel that only relies on paper media serialization, will really become popular. If it only relies on "The Times" within three days The series will be able to arouse the crazy pursuit of the public in the UK. Maybe my media empire will be busy with another major event in the next period of time..."

……

……

1 month 13 day.

The Times issued 20 additional copies, for a total circulation of 85.That number is on par with the day after Prince William's wedding.

On the same day, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" has been serialized to "Chapter 12: Mirror of Erised".The first episode of this novel has entered a real climax.The huge and complete magical world is completely displayed in front of everyone. The wonderful process, eye-opening and thrilling plot make everyone who has read the novel completely obsessed.

Early in the morning, Benson rushed to the newsstand.

Today he took a full 120 copies of The Times, even [-] copies more than Prince William's wedding.

However, he was still shocked when he saw the long queue in front of the newsstand.

50 people?

60 people?

The team even lined up to the corner of the street in the distance, causing all the people around to show curious eyes.

Benson had been waiting at this newsstand for eight years, and he had never seen such an exaggerated scene.

He suppressed the shock in his heart and opened the newsstand window.

The team immediately became lively.

"The Times, come on, thank you!"
