The scale of this boycott was beyond everyone's expectations, including Liu Jingting himself, who had magnified the crisis seen in the information of that world by ten times, but still underestimated the readers' resentment towards him.

"At the end of "The Book of Sword and Revenge", you said in person that the next book would be a perfect ending for a happy reunion, but we all wore contact lenses, so show us this!"

"Maybe you think that every time we readers say we boycott you, we forgive you in the end, so you are unscrupulous, so you can turn a deaf ear to our requests again and again. Well, this time we will let you get what you want!"

"As long as you don't change the ending of "Snow Mountain Flying Fox", I will not buy any of your works again, do what you say!"

...

"So that's it!" Liu Jingting finally found clues about the cause of the incident, and it turned out to be related to his "reunion promise".

"Will the situation be better if the ending of "Bloody Sword" comes first?"

In Yingri Culture Office, the editors were meeting to study countermeasures, and Chang Youdao mentioned a possibility. After all, they are old players of the forum and have their own grasp of the mentality of netizens.

"It should be better," Liangsi continued, then smiled bitterly, "but this ending will still be..."

Liangsi didn't continue talking, looking at the boss Liu Jingting who was still smiling.

"They still won't accept this ending." Liu Jingting added Liangsi's words in full.

Liangsi nodded with helpless expression. He had already persuaded everyone countless times, and even raised all the opinions of the hero Hu Fei to death. But Liu Jingting insisted on making them desperate.

"Now we have received more than a dozen return orders, and fixed orders online are also decreasing." Liangsi said.

"What about the specific numbers?"

"At this rate, sales will be sold in half this time."

"That means there will be nearly one million copies sold?" Liu Jingting asked.

"Yeah, more than one million."

"Then there is no problem. Our bottom line is 200,000 copies. If we pass this line, we will be operating at a loss."

After stealing his studies in the business school for so long, Liu Jingting had already conducted a relatively accurate evaluation of the various data in "Jianglu". After saying this data, Liangsi and several other colleagues were slightly surprised.

"Yes, because our royalties are the highest in the industry. Two hundred thousand is the bottom line," George continued.

"So, we can do things as usual, at most one month. The limelight will pass. By the way, you should pay attention to your personal safety just in case."

"Um."

It's over that. Everyone has nothing to say and persuade. They agree.

"There's another thing," Chang Youdao suddenly thought of something, "Lin Tiange wants to publish a book in advance."

"Song Knife?"

"right."

"How many have you written?"

“He said he could finish writing in February.”

Liu Jingting frowned and thoughtful, Liangsi lowered her head and flipped through the notebook, and a strange color flashed across her face.

"February? Is it a little hurry?"

"Indeed, but he said he wanted to use the current book style to publish the book this morning so as not to encounter "Blue Blood Sword" when he was."

"how do you say?"

"He was very determined to persuade him all kinds of times. Although he was very polite in every sentence, he was particularly sure. It was like..." Chang Youdao wanted to make a joke, but he looked at everyone present and did not continue.

Liu Jingting smiled and said, "It's like I don't want to change the ending?"

Chang Youdao nodded. In addition to his subordinates, he and Liu Jingting were still friends first. Moreover, Liu Jingting was really not arrogant. Chang Youdao's respect for him came from his works, and 30% because he had no worries in everything, the remaining 10% may involve the relationship between the boss and the subordinates.

"Then let's go out in February. After all, we still have to respect the author's own opinions. "Blue Blood Sword" is moved to March. What does the contract say?"

"After the Song Knife, I will discuss the contract issue with us in detail." Chang Youdao said.

"Okay." Liu Jingting nodded, "Then, today's meeting will be like this, and we will work after we have a break."

...

Shortly after the Yingri Culture meeting ended, a confidential meeting of the Yellow River Literature and Art Office quietly began. Only three people attended the meeting, Cui Song, Mo Zhiyu and Xue Muliang.

"Xiao Liang, I specially called you here today. There is something important to tell you. I think you may have noticed some information."

Mo Zhiyu looked at Xue Muliang, and his tone was filled with a momentum of wisdom beads in his grasp.

"Sister Mo is talking about..." Xue Muliang of course had to pretend to be confused.

"Gu Yongsheng."

"Um?"

Mo Zhiyu Zhan smiled and said, "Do you know Si Liang?"

"The executive editor of "Jianglu" and former editor of "The Wanderer".

Mo Zhiyu nodded and said, "He is my closed disciple and a genius magazine."

Xue Muliang immediately caught the point, looking shocked.

"That's right, except for Gu Yongsheng and Chang Youdao, the other editors of "Jianglu" are all our people!"

Xue Muliang was shocked again, and after a moment of speechlessness, he asked, "There is another Xu Sen?"

"We are also ours now," Mo Zhiyu smiled, "I have been persuaded by Liangsi. Think about it, he and Liu Jingting are both people from the essay competition. Now one is in the sky and the other is in the ground. How could there be no knot in my heart?"

"So Sister Mo's plan is..."

"You will see it soon," Mo Zhiyu smiled profoundly, "I originally had to delay time, but now it is the best opportunity to collect the game because of the right time, place and people."

"Sister Mo is talking about the readers' boycott this time?"

"It's this fuse. I didn't expect the readers to rebound so strongly this time."

"Haha, because Gu Yongsheng is too bad this time," Cui Song, who had been silent, suddenly answered, "I also read "Snow Mountain Flying Fox". It can be said that it is definitely a great work, but the ending is too bad. I want to ask Gu Yongsheng in person what's wrong."

Xue Muliang said: "That's his hype that he joined forces with Qianhong to create topics, but it turned out to be backfired."

"There is this possibility," Mo Zhiyu continued, "and it also shows that God is helping us."

"Has Sister Mo been tampering with her inside the magazine?" When Xue Muliang heard that Liangsi was his own person, the first thing he thought of was to take action from inside the magazine, such as finance and author.

Mo Zhiyu shook his head and said, "No, I didn't plan to do this. This time I am not going to destroy him, but to bring him and the magazine. Liangsi and the others are absolutely competent as editors of "Jianglu".

Xue Muliang thought about it for a while, and suddenly said happily: "Sister Mo means to kidnap Gu Yongsheng with a magazine?"

Mo Zhiyu finally nodded, praised "smart", and then sighed: "And that Gu Yongsheng is really smart. While fully delegating power to Liangsi, he also controls certain key links without missing a trace. If he takes action on their financial position based on the company, he will be able to detect something wrong in minutes. Vientiane Academy is really amazing."

Vientiane Academy has a world-renowned "entrepreneurship cradle plan". If students start their own business, as long as there is a reasonable and feasible planning letter, the Academy will provide all-round support. Liu Jingting did not apply for funds from the Academy when registering "Yingri Culture". He only handed over the relevant information after the company was registered. In addition to the operation of Yingri Culture Company, in addition to Gu Yongsheng who was studying and managing while operating, there are naturally other invisible help behind it.

"Cui She, Sister Mo, do I need to do now?"

Xue Muliang is so smart. The two bosses have only thoroughly told their plans now. It must be the time for them to participate.

"Soon, I will arrange a great potential author for you." Mo Zhiyu said with a smile.

...

Qianhong Culture, who was accidentally caught in the attack, was naturally also holding a meeting. The meeting discussed the reader's statement "Resist itself if necessary" and finally everyone agreed that the implication of this sentence was that as long as "The Great Jianghu" can cut off the relationship with Gu Yongsheng in time, the crisis should be resolved.

At the insistence of editor-in-chief Wei Wuzhi, "The Great Jianghu" apologized for this appointment for Gu Yongsheng, and canceled all related activities about "Snow Mountain Flying Fox".

Qianhong's public relations reaction was indeed quick to cut the mess, but later they found that at this time, not many people noticed it. As Yi Shuian said, when the matter broke out, Gu Yongsheng would bear almost all the criticism.

At the meeting, Lu Yichou also announced another news that Yi Shui'an, the editor-in-chief of "The Great Rivers and Lakes", would write behind closed doors and would take two months off. The editor-in-chief is temporarily appointed by Wei Wuzhi.

...

On January 11, the Jianghai Center Meteorological Observatory released information on the cold wave, which is the first low-temperature cold wave of the new year. It is said that the temperature will reach the lowest temperature by then minus 6 degrees Celsius.
