Chapter 416: I feel this book is going to fire

"Sanla, put these books on the bestseller bookshelf."

The manager of the "Gen Bookstore" handed a list of books to the clerk Sanra and said, "This "Paradise" is the key book recommended by Frank Bookstore, and is placed in the bookshelves of the first bestseller book. This "Snowg" is from the New York Press and is also placed in the bookshelves. This book..."

The store manager kept saying to the book list.

"This book of Harry Potter...wait, it was actually published at your own expense. Haha, I haven't received a book published at your own expense for a long time."

Looking at the name of the Harry Potter work, the store manager couldn't help but smile, "It seems that I remember that after the government began to manage books more effectively three years ago, there were very few works of self-publishing. Unexpectedly, there are again today. Alas, poor writers, Sanra, don't you like writing too, don't study to publish it yourself in the future. By the way, just put books like self-publishing... in the corner on the left."

"I understand, store manager."

Sighing, Sanra took the book list and went to sort out the books with a little depressed depression.

More than an hour later, Sanra placed various books on various bookshelf positions.

"Harry Potter."

Looking at Harry Potter in his hand, Sanra felt helpless.

In fact, Sanla is also a literary youth, and he also likes to write. Unfortunately, liking to write does not mean that the works you write can be recognized. Over the years, most of the manuscripts sent by Sanla have been returned. Sanla once thought of publishing at his own expense because he thought his works were very good. The publisher refused because others had no vision. It was not until later that Sanla, who worked in a bookstore for many years, knew it. It turned out that it was not because others had no vision, but because his works were not good enough.

The reason why I discovered this is not only because of the progress in recent years, but because countless authors publish their own expenses without anyone paying attention to it.

Many authors also had similar ideas to Sanra at that time, so they spent a lot of money to publish their works at their own expense. However, even if they published these works, bad works are still bad. Almost all the works that Sanra has seen in recent years were sold terrible. Sometimes, no one visited these works that were published by themselves for a year.

Until the past three years, because the government has increased its management of publishing, self-paid publishing has gradually decreased. But I didn’t expect that I still saw a self-paid publishing today.

It seems to be a fairy tale novel.

The circulation seems to be very large.

God.

Sanra no longer knows what to say.

"Although I don't know who you are, as a veteran, I wish you good luck."

After putting the last book "Harry Potter" in his hand in a corner of the bookshelf, Sanra did other things.

However, what Sanla did not expect was that after just a while, the store manager called Sanla over again.

"Sandra, what happened? Ask you to put the self-published novel on the far left corner, why is it still empty there?"

"Shopkeeper, I'll let it go."

Sanra replied in confusion.

"Let me go, lie, come and see, why are there more than a dozen books available here?"

Pointing to the empty bookshelf, the store manager asked Sanra and said.

"Well, why are there no more?"

Looking at the empty bookshelves, Sanra wiped her eyes, "Shopkeeper, I clearly put ten books on Harry Potter here just now. How could it be gone? I won't be stolen?"

"Stealed?"

The store manager shook his head, "How is it possible? Our store has so many surveillance cameras, and no one will come to steal books as long as it is a normal person."

"That might have been sold?"

Since it is impossible to steal, there is only another possibility, and you can sell it.

“Sold?”

The manager looked at Sanra, "If that's the case, you'd rather believe that these books were stolen. Whose own money had you seen sold their own works, unless the author came to the bookstore to buy them. Sanra, are you sure you've put the books here?"

"If I'm not dreaming now, then I'm letting go."

"Okay, I'll trust you for the time being, I'll check the data."

The store manager was a little unbelievable, so he turned on the computer and entered Harry Potter. The computer showed the data of 10 copies sold by Harry Potter.

“Huh…”

Seeing this data, the store manager was a little unbelievable.

"It's really sold."

"Shopkeeper, I said it, I just put it."

Seeing the data, Sanra hurriedly proved her innocence.

"Okay, OK, I blamed you just now. But, it's strange, some people have bought such books. Is it really written by a rich author?"

This phenomenon has not happened before.

There was once a rich writer who also liked to write novels, but the novels he wrote were very ordinary, and no publishing house was willing to publish his works. Later, the rich writer published himself in anger. In addition, he spent money to buy 1 million copies of his own books in the market, creating a record of the top sales list of the month at that time.

Could it be that this time I encountered this situation again?

The manager was a little uncertain and ordered Sanra to say, "You go and put Harry Potter on the bookshelf again."

"yes."

Sanra nodded and found 10 Harry Potter books from the warehouse.

As a result, half an hour later, 10 Harry Potters were sold out again.

"Oh my God..."

Seeing this data, Sanra and the store manager were both shocked.

You should know that single books are sold very slowly in a bookstore. Even if it is some super bestsellers, the sales data in single bookshops are not fast. The reason why they can sell millions of copies is because the number of tens of thousands of bookstores in North America accumulated over several months or even years.

In other words, if some bestsellers are not doing activities, it would be great to sell 10 books a day.

However, after only half an hour, Harry Potter sold 10 copies. No, if you add the previous one, you sold 20 copies.

You know, Harry Potter is placed in the corner on the far left, a place that few people visit.

Moreover, their bookstore cannot be regarded as a large bookstore, but can only be regarded as a medium-sized bookstore.

"Did you really meet a rich author?"

The manager looked at Sanra and asked with some uncertainty.

"This, the store manager, doesn't seem to be."

Sanra shook her head, "I just noticed the situation here and found that as long as someone picks up Harry Potter, 80% of readers will choose to buy it."

“That is, that book was not purchased by one person?”

"right."

Sanra nodded and said, "Yes, not alone, and most of the readers who bought that book were old customers in our store, some were children aged 9-12, and some were parents."

After saying that, Sanra seemed to think of something, her eyes shining. Finally, she looked at the empty bookshelf, then looked at the store manager, swallowed her saliva, and said excitedly, "Shop Manager, I feel..."

"What do you feel?"

"I feel like this book is going to be popular."
