He laughed and said, "It's not the bookseller's fault. I don't dare to make too many decisions in a different place. What if no one buys this book?"

Shi Yun: "..."

Then you still let me print so many?

Why are you smiling so happily?

Lu Bei didn't know Shi Yun's slander, and his smile was still bright: "The top ten booksellers have bought from us, right?"

Shi Yundao: "Jing'an Bookstore didn't take it."

Lu Bei nodded: "I'll discuss the order from Jing'an Bookstore."

After speaking, Lu Bei made a phone call.

Shi Yun didn't speak, just waited quietly.

The call was connected quickly, and Lu Bei's first words were: "Pei Du, do you want to play big?"

"How big are you playing?"

Pei Du, the general manager of Jing'an Bookstore, curled his lips and said, "You want to persuade me to order more "Zhu Xian", I'm planning to contact you, how about a hundred thousand copies?"

"You have no confidence in Chu Kuang?"

"It's not that I don't have confidence in Chu Kuang, it's that I don't have confidence in Xianxia, ​​let's stop being a fool, just say what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of Yinlan Library."

Lu Bei said lightly: "I'm selling super supplement pills!"

Shi Yun pouted, she was only in charge of publishing and sales, and didn't know much about novels.

Pei Du smiled wryly and said: "Jing'an Bookstore is the fifth largest chain bookstore in the country in terms of shipments. You know that I have only been in the position of general manager for a year, and it is not very secure. How many pairs of eyes are staring at me for making mistakes? If you You screwed me so hard, I might have to move my ass next year."

"If you want to secure the position of general manager of Jing'an Bookstore, you just trust me and order him 100 million copies!"

Shi Yun wanted to remind Lu Bei that the company didn't have so much inventory.

But after thinking about it, the person in charge of Jing'an Bookstore is not an idiot, so how could he let you fool him.

really.

Pei Du couldn't stop laughing. He and Lu Bei are good friends, and they don't have so many scruples in words: "How dare you print a hundred copies?"

"You don't have to worry about it," Lu Bei said leisurely.

Pei Du gritted his teeth: "Then I'll play with you and order 50 copies."

He didn't think the other party would cheat him.

If the other party dared to deceive him, then he would completely offend Jing'an Bookstore in the future. Moreover, the friendship between the two is still there, and the value of this friendship is higher than an order of hundreds of thousands of books.

"It's a little less, and 50 copies have been called out, so it's better to order 70 copies."

"Are you crazy or am I crazy?"

"Neither of us will be crazy. If we want to be crazy, let those rational onlookers go crazy. This time, I want to let the whole Qinzhou know that those who believe in my Yinlan library will win the world, and those who believe in Chu madness will have eternal life!"

"You're like a stick."

"Silver Blue Bookstore has developed from a medium-sized publishing company to where it is today. I, Lu Bei, have not only made great contributions, but at least I have made great contributions. What do you think I, Lu Bei, have made?"

Pei didn't speak.

There was silence on the phone for 3 minutes.

Lu Bei didn't say anything, he was patient enough.

No one knew what kind of struggle Pei Du had experienced in his heart. After 3 minutes, he roared: "His uncle, I will trust you once, 70 volumes!"

"Okay, wait until next year to get the bonus and performance, hang up."

"Don't say hang up, it's unlucky, I have to go to meet the strong wind and rain."

Shi Yun, who listened to the whole phone call, widened his eyes!

The opening is an order of 70 copies, so how come the negotiation is over?

No wonder Lu Bei is the editor-in-chief, isn't his ability to fool you terrifying?

but……

The company's inventory is indeed cleared, but if "Zhu Xian" cannot be sold by then, will Jing'an Bookstore blacklist Yinlan Bookstore in the future?

If not, that Mr. Pei Du will be completely buried by the inventory squeezed by "Zhu Xian"!

Chapter 116 Don't Hurry Up to Restock

The last night of June.

When a full 70 copies of "Zhu Xian" were successively moved into the warehouses of Jing'an Bookstore and the shelves of the bookstore, the company exploded!

"Pei Du, are you crazy?"

"Ordered 70 copies of "Zhu Xian"?"

"Don't you know how much other bookstores in Qinzhou have ordered?"

"It's less than [-] volumes at most!"

"Others can't avoid it, but you are a treasure?"

"Could it be that you took the price difference from the Yinlan Library?"

Pei Du received several high-level phone calls in succession, scolding, questioning, and worrying. Every time he called, he always answered the same: "If something goes wrong, I will take responsibility."

Regret?

Still a bit.

The high-level reaction was more intense than Pei Du had imagined, and even his subordinates were worried, thinking that Pei was fooled by Yinlan Library.

"It's difficult for the general manager."

"The Yinlan library must not be able to sell the books, so they packaged them up and sold them to us."

"I can only pray that readers will buy more tomorrow."

"70 in stock, sell as much as you can."

"The more left over, the greater the manager's responsibility."

"..."

Pei Du gritted his teeth.

Things have come to this point, regret is useless.

He gritted his teeth fiercely, and issued three orders in a row.

The first order, tomorrow's headline on the company's official website must be reserved for "Zhu Xian".

The second order, starting tonight, is to replace all the promotional banners of Jing'an Bookstore's major bookstores with "Zhu Xian".

The third order is that only "Zhu Xian" can be placed on the front shelves of all bookstores under Jing'an Bookstore, and all other books are placed in the next-level summer vacation position!

Pei wanted everyone who stepped into Jing'an Bookstore to see "Zhu Xian" for the first time!

"it is good."

The following can only be followed.

The general manager has gone crazy.

As for such a big movement in Jing'an Bookstore, those people in the industry who are more proficient in news naturally failed to hide it. Everyone's reaction to this horrific news was the same:

Pei is crazy!

No one knew what ecstasy drug Yinlan Library gave Pei Du to make Pei Du play so big, it was just a joke about his position as the general manager.

"Too hard."

"Pei is a fan of Chu Kuang?"

"Except for Chu Kuang's fans, I can't think of anyone else who has such high confidence in "Zhu Xian"."

"Maybe he's going to be fired."

"Everyone is so conservative, he is the one who risked his life."

"..."

There is competition between publishing houses, and there is naturally competition among the major booksellers in Qinzhou. Many people laughed when they saw Jing'an Bookstore being so big.

If the books cannot be sold, Jing'an Bookstore will naturally be able to hold on.

Even if the sales of 70 volumes are all smashed, it’s okay. Jing’an Bookstore, as the top chain bookstore in the country, will not even have the ability to bear this.

But it's still a big loss.

If "Zhu Xian" hits the market, the signboard of Jing'an Bookstore will be hit under the same situation.

This is the scene that everyone is happiest to see.

Just wait for tomorrow!

This night, countless people are eagerly waiting for the dawn.

As for Pei Du himself, he couldn't sleep all night, always feeling up and down in his heart, and ended up staying up until dawn in a daze.

"So sad."

Older people are very weak in staying up late. Pei Du is 40 years old this year. After staying up all night, he only feels a splitting headache.

After drinking a glass of water, his state eased up.

Do you want to continue to sleep?

Pei Du shook his head, and decided to go to the bookstore, otherwise he would always feel uneasy.

……

As the fifth-ranked bookstore in Qinzhou, Jing'an Bookstore has several branches in Guangsu City, and Pei Du has reached the largest branch.

This branch has three floors.

After Pei Du arrived, he asked someone to open the door and went in to inspect it.

The people below really followed his request and left all the banners to "Zhu Xian".

The bookshelves in the first row are generally recommended by bookstores, and the book "Zhu Xian" is also displayed.

The entire Sioux City...

No, it should be said that the entire Qinzhou, only Jing'an Bookstore, gave such a high treatment to "Zhu Xian".

"Manager, it's not open yet."

The staff in the bookstore cautiously reminded him that they obviously knew what Pei was going to face today.

"It's all right."

Pei Du waved his hands, found a corner seat and sat down, closed his eyes and got up.

The people below didn't dare to say anything more, and they were all ready for today's work.

after an hour.

The bookstore is officially open.

The bustling voices sounded, and Pei, who was almost asleep, was woken up. He rubbed his eyes and saw that many customers had already entered the door.

Eh?

Many customers are a little surprised after entering the door.

Because the entire Jing'an Bookstore, from the banners to the walls and even the bookshelves, are all "Zhu Xian", it's hard for people not to notice.

Rarely has a book received such strong publicity.

So, a curious customer picked up "Zhu Xian" and watched it.

Pei Du's drowsiness disappeared in an instant. He stared at the customers who picked up "Zhu Xian" with his red eyes, and only two words filled his mind:

Buy it!

Buy it!
