Chapter 119 Publicity and Promotion
When the empty illustrations were drawn in season, the takeaway was delivered.
Ji Kong has never been a frugal person. Since he is rich, he will certainly not treat himself badly, so he ordered the more expensive steak rice for takeout.
Uncovered the lunch box, large pieces of beef, the meat slices are clear in texture, a little bit, the black and purple color is temptingly moist and oily, and the heat mixed with the fragrance lingers in the room.
Whether it is the appearance or the fragrance, it is impeccable. However, when Ji Kong ate it in his mouth, he felt that it was not as good as the fried rice from the day!
Did the fried rice from eggs that day be medicated?
However, Ji Kong was not a picky person. After solving the food in just a few seconds, Ji Kong called Machida Yuanzi.
After all, she is nominally her own editor, so if she wants to submit the manuscript, she can just hand it over to her. There is no need to go to the electric shock library again.
After receiving Ji Kong's call, Machida Yuanko was also very surprised.
Today is the date of delivery that was agreed upon, and she also knew about this, but she had never dared to contact Ji Kong on his own initiative.
The reason is that Ji Kong's identity brought too much pressure to her. If Ji Kong wanted to delay the manuscript, not only would she have no choice, but also would have no choice, Nasuki Ichito, the editor of the Electric Shock Library!
Fortunately, Teacher Kong seemed to be a very honest person. He took the initiative to call her at noon.
But after thinking about Suzuki Ichito's instructions, Machida Yuanko still said: "Teacher Sora, on the promotional issue of "Sword Art Online", Editor Suzuki seems to have something to discuss with Teacher Sora. Why don't you come to the company today?"
Originally, this afternoon, Ji Kong was going to go to the decoration company to consult about decoration issues, but since it was a major issue related to publicity, Ji Kong naturally had to learn about it.
For a new book, publicity is undoubtedly the most important, and in a sense, it exceeds the quality of the novel itself, so Ji Kong cannot ignore it.
When he took a bus to the electric shock library, Machida Yuanzi was already waiting at the door. When Ji Kong arrived, he led him straight to the editor's office on the 6th floor.
"By the way, I would like to thank Mr. Sora here." Machida Yuanko said as she walked: "Because Mr. Sora chose me as your editor, I have now been promoted from operations editor to editor-in-chief."
"Then congratulations to Miss Machida."
Ji Kong was not surprised by this result, because on the way they came, many employees greeted Machida Yuanzi.
RB is a country with strict classes. She can make her colleagues so respectful must be because her status is relatively high.
After taking Ji Kong to the office door, Machida Yuanzi knocked on the door. When the sound of "Please enter" came from inside, she pushed open the door and retreated aside to let Ji Kong go in alone.
Ji Kong was a little uncomfortable with the strict class system of RB, but he didn't say much. After all, it was very unrealistic to want to change a certain social form with his own strength.
"Teacher Kong, you are here!"
Suzuki Ichichi was sitting at his desk working. When he saw Ji Kong coming in, he immediately stood up and walked over to shake hands with Ji Kong.
The two sat down at a glass table, and a secretary came over to pour tea. Ji Kong took a sip and asked first: "I heard that Mr. Suzuki came over to me today to discuss the promotion?"
"That's right. I have a document here. It is a publicity plan summarized by our publicity department and operation department after three days of research. Teacher Kong, please take a look. If you have any comments, please mention it."
Suzuki Ichichi took a thick folder from his desk and handed it to Ji Kong.
"I won't read this document."
Ji Kong took the document but did not open it, put it aside, and said, "I am just an outsider. I don't understand the promotion and promotion industry, nor the specific social form of RB. I also believe in the professional quality of the electric shock library, so I will not express my opinions randomly."
Before coming, Ji Kong was still very excited about how to use how to promote his first book, but when he was about to arrive at the company, he calmed down.
Before traveling through time, he was just an ordinary college student, and he did not study majors related to publicity.
Perhaps at other times, he can also take advantage of some differences in his past and present life to come up with some "strategic plans" - such as the promotion and promotion of the Muse.
But when it comes to such tough battles, those strange strategies will no longer work.
Just like when two armies fight, a strange plan is important, but what really determines the victory or defeat of the two armies is the general's ability to command troops in a frontal manner.
After figuring this out, Ji Kong was not ready to interfere in the publicity. After all, it is a taboo for laymen to command experts!
When Suzuki Ichichi was also very pleased when he heard Ji Kong say this, of course he didn't want Ji Kong to interfere, but considering Ji Kong's identity, he had to ask the other party to discuss it.
Fortunately, Teacher Kong did not choose to command randomly.
Thinking of this, his evaluation of Ji Kong was one step further.
"I wonder if Mr. Suzuki has anything else to do? If it's okay, I'll leave first." Ji Kong said.
"There is one more thing," said Suzuki Ichito: "That's right. We have tentatively scheduled for the publication and release of "Sword Art Online" next weekend. At that time, we will hold an on-site signing meeting for Mr. Sora. I hope Mr. Sora can make some time to participate."
"No, if it's a signing party, there's no need to hold it!"
Ji Kong refused without thinking about it. Next weekend, Shiyu Xiazhiqiu will come back. With her respect for Teacher Kong, she will definitely attend the signing party. If her identity is discovered, it will be all over!
"Why should I refuse, Mr. Kong? You should know that holding a sales signing meeting is the best way to cultivate fan loyalty. Appropriate exposure will also help improve Mr. Kong's fame and book sales. This is a win-win situation for us. With Mr. Kong's appearance, I believe that he can gain many female fans!"
Suzuki Ichichi tried his best to persuade.
"This..." Ji Kong was a little shaken when he heard Suzuki Ichichi say this, and thought for a while and said: "It is not impossible to hold a signing party, but the time must be ahead of this weekend. Moreover, at the signing party, photos are not allowed to be taken, and photos about me are not allowed to be leaked on the website. If these two things can be done, the signing party can be held."
