Chapter 524 Is the dog author gone?

The Weibo accounts of Chengzi Reading Network and "One Leaf Knows Autumn" studio are very simple.

"The sword is coming and the physical book of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is about to be released!"

"Starting from October 8th (tomorrow), the physical book of "Fairy Sword" will be available online and in physical bookstores across the country. This time, there are three versions of paperback, hardcover and luxury cover, priced at 38 yuan, 98 yuan and 198 yuan respectively.

Yuan..."

"At the same time, the author Ye Zhiqiu's first book signing will be held in Shangjing City on October 10 (this Friday), on the first floor of Wangfujing Shopping Center..."

“Looking forward to meeting all the book fans!”

After this message was sent out, Ye Zhiqiu’s own Weibo account also forwarded it.

Generally, information related to work and schedule is released by the company or studio account. If necessary for publicity, it will be forwarded by his own account.

This Weibo contained too much information and immediately attracted huge attention, including many writers in the industry.

"Legend of Sword and Fairy" has been released as a physical book!

This is not news. "Zhu Xian" has also been released, and its sales exceeded one million, making it a super bestseller.

What is shocking is the price of the "luxury edition" of the physical book of "Sword of Immortality" - Yaojiu8!

When they saw this piece of information, many publishing colleagues and writers in the industry thought they were dazzled, but the first thought after they realized it was...

Crazy!

Nearly 200 yuan, the highest price ever paid for a single novel.

Especially now that e-books have become the absolute mainstream and physical books are gradually declining, setting such a high price really makes people doubt whether this can be sold!?

Immediately afterwards, a second thought flashed in almost everyone's mind.

Ye Zhiqiu is floating!

For the price of a book, it is certainly not worth that much. The previous hardcover version of "Zhu Xian" only cost 98 yuan.

But if you look at it from the perspective of celebrity fans, it seems to make sense.

After all, the so-called independent brands of some celebrities are clearly ubiquitous, low-quality OEM products that can be sold for ten times or even a hundred times the price with the celebrity's personal logo on them.

In addition to writing novels, Ye Zhiqiu is also a top-notch singer. With his current popularity, maybe... no, there will definitely be fans who will buy it.

But... this is purely the act of cutting leeks!

Many colleagues and friends who were already envious and jealous of Ye Zhiqiu were almost ecstatic when they saw this news.

Got your tail!

Tang Long, the author of "Blood Jiang Hu", immediately posted on Weibo to ridicule.

"I heard that a certain author's novel was published at a high price of 198 a copy? I just want to say, don't you feel ashamed that some people are relying on their reputation to make money from readers without conscience?"

Then Guan Yi, who was badly cheated by Ye Zhiqiu in the "Autumn Modern Poetry Essay Contest", followed.

"Making money without conscience is an understatement. This is just cutting readers off! It also disrupts the order of the industry market..."

Tang Long and Guan Yi found trouble very quickly, but Ye Zhiqiu's reaction was faster.

Just after forwarding the post on Weibo, Ye Zhiqiu happened to be online, so he replied directly and neatly to both of them.

Under Tang Long's Weibo, there is a big "middle finger" emoji.

Under Guan Yi's Weibo, there is a picture of a "girl with glasses".

At two places, when Tang Long and Guan Yi saw the information, they were so angry that they almost spit out blood.

This kid is so vicious! Junqu Pavilion

Originally, Tang Long and Guan Yi didn't have many comments on Weibo, but Ye Zhiqiu's personal reply attracted more attention to them.

All of a sudden, netizens’ comments became lively.

"Damn it, the dog author is so tough."

"This middle finger is very spiritual."

"As expected of a scholar, his words are concise and concise."

"Hahahaha, the picture of the girl with the eyes makes me laugh so hard, it's like taking the bamboo shoots."

"Guan Yi stopped talking. Tell me why you provoked him."

"Ye Zhiqiu: I specialize in uncovering people's scars."

In fact, although Tang Long and Guan Yi posted this Weibo, and some people who did not know the situation were incited to agree with it, Ye Zhiqiu's real book fans would not be affected at all.

The price of 198 yuan for a paper book does seem quite expensive, but there are also cheap paperback versions to choose from, so there’s nothing much to say about it.

What many book fans are curious about is what is so "luxurious" about this "luxury edition" and why is it so expensive?

Soon, Ye Zhiqiu answered the doubts of many book fans.

Chengzi Reading Network specially posted another introduction about the three versions of the physical book "Legend of Sword and Fairy". Almost at the same time, Ye Zhiqiu's Weibo forwarded it.

Many book fans clicked in and found that the physical paperback version of "Sword of Immortality" and the hardcover version were the same as those of "Zhu Xian", and there was nothing much to say about it.

Then, the introduction of the "luxury edition" made thousands of book fans suddenly widen their eyes.

The deluxe version of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" has a book cover design that is a bit more refined than the hardcover version. In addition, there are two more things.

One is the stills of the starring characters in "Legend of Sword and Fairy" currently being filmed, including Li Xiaoyao, Zhao Ling'er, Lin Yueru... The photos are taken at a very high level, making people feel that the characters in the book should look like this.

The second item is actually a CD containing all the music from "Sword of Immortal"!

And, there are new songs!

The CD contains a total of 8 tracks, including 4 songs and 4 pure music.

Among the 4 songs, in addition to the previously released "Xiaoyaotan", "June Rain" and "Always Quiet", fans were surprised to find that there was also a song "Slaying the Wolf" sung by Ye Zhiqiu.

Not only that, the other four pure music pieces "Sword and Fairy Tale", "Don't Lose, Don't Forget", "Peach Blossom Island" and "Eternal Memories" have never been published before!

All book fans immediately realized why the luxury version of the physical book "Sword of Immortality" dared to be priced at a high price of 198 yuan.

This is the price plus a music album from the "Sword and Fairy" series!

Is the price of 198 expensive? Not expensive at all!

In fact, Ye Zhiqiu had recorded all the relevant soundtracks before the filming of the TV series "Sword and Sword" began.

The reason why "Sword of Immortal" can become a classic is also due to a series of god-level soundtracks.

Just as the physical book was about to be released, Ye Zhiqiu proposed a combined sales format of "book series music album".

Ye Zhiqiu himself has also experienced the reader stage. If you think about it, the people who will buy the physical book of "Sword of Immortality" are basically those who have read the full text, and the proportion of new readers is very small.

I bought this book more as a souvenir and collection.

In this case, why not try to make the book as exquisite as possible, more memorable, and provide readers with one more choice. I believe there will still be readers who will pay for it.

In addition, a series of soundtracks can also serve as a warm-up for the yet-to-be-released TV series "Sword and Sword", and by the way, advertisements have been made.
Chapter completed!
