Zhang Chu did see his arguments on the Internet, but he did not express any opinions on this. .

Now he has become a public figure and is too tempted to address these remarks.

What's more, these sounds are unforbidden, and Zhang Chu has no time to get involved with these people.

In the Hanlinxuan Bookstore in the morning, Zhang Chubai sat bored in a daze in the glass wall. He placed a laptop and a digital tablet in front of him.

I originally planned to draw more points for "Those Things That Rabbit That Year" in my study at home, so that I can start writing a new book after I have saved the manuscript!

If the manuscript is not saved, it is easy to cause interruption.

Zhang Chu has completely forgotten that he hasn't updated the comic for almost a week. If there were any manuscripts, this kind of thing would obviously not have happened.

Of course, comics rarely update every day, and most of the time they are updated once a week.

The pressure on the painter to update every day is too great!

Readers are very tolerant of painters and are much stricter with the authors. Zhang Chu felt frustrated when he thought about it, otherwise he would have changed to become a full-time painter.

At this time, the campus looked particularly empty, with the pouring heavy rain drizzling, and there was no customer in the entire bookstore.

Originally, this was during the summer vacation. If the weather was still good, there would be a few tourists or students who stayed on campus. Now all the clerks and managers are bored.

Some are sitting and playing with their phones, some are reading books, and some are sorting out the shelves and checking stocks.

"Boss, if we are so idle every day, we seem to have to lose a lot of money." Zhong Liangping said worriedly. He didn't want to find a job again within a few months!

Zhang Chu took a sip of coffee and comforted him, "Old Zhong, don't worry too much. It's on holiday now, and I'm facing this kind of weather again. As the saying goes, wind is halved and rainy, so it's good to wait until school starts."

Zhong Liangping is not as timid as Zhang Chu. He handed over the sales list of the bookstore he just signed since its opening. The sales figures on it were shocking!

"Well, this line chart is so terrifying."

Originally, Zhang Chu was quite confident in the sales of the bookstore, but now it seems to be very miserable!

The day with the highest sales was when the business opened, and that day Zhang Chu held a signing event for "The Legend of Wukong" at the bookstore.

Not only did he sell hundreds or thousands of copies of "The Legend of Wukong", but he also sold a lot of other works and peripheral products.

After that, sales plummeted, and about dozens of books could be sold every day. The sales head was actually on Yanda’s postcards and Wukong’s peripheral products.

It started raining at around 9:00 this morning, and the bookstore has not opened yet. No wonder everyone is worried that the bookstore will go bankrupt.

"The sun is always after the storm. School will be open in a few days. It will definitely be useful to do publicity at that time. At the same time, a new batch of teaching materials should also be included. The bookstore will not go bankrupt even if it loses money. This is a signboard."

Zhong Liangping only put on a snack after receiving Zhang Chu's promise, otherwise he would want to make a resume again and hand it over to the headhunter.

Running a bookstore is not easy, and campus bookstores are even more difficult.

"I'll check out the message on the WeChat official account now to see what type of books these students want, so I can discuss the purchase with the publisher."

Zhang Chu watched Zhong Liangping get up and leave before he carefully painted on the tablet with his pen.

In fact, if the story is sorted out in "That Rabbit That Year", drawing is very easy and simple. Who made those animals draw simple drawings?

The content of the third chapter was soon presented on the digital tablet. After Zhang Chu enlarged the image on the computer monitor, he then made some modifications and saved it.

When painting, I didn’t know how time passed. When Zhang Chu raised his neck and twisted it, he found that the rain outside had turned into wisps of light rain, but there was water everywhere on the road.

He closed his computer and tablet and was about to drive out of school to eat. Who would have thought that when he turned around, he would actually see an unexpected person!

Zhang Chu said in surprise: "Editor Gu? Why are you here?"

Gu Xinxue, wearing a blue polo shirt, was standing in front of the bookshelf and flipping through a book. After hearing Zhang Chu's words, he put the book down.

He was originally supposed to be in Sanya, South China Island, but now he actually appears in Yanjing, and in his own bookstore!

"Recently, there was a Yanjing International Book Fair, and our publishing house also came to participate in the exhibition. I have long wanted to come to your bookstore to see it. The environment now looks pretty good. I am now a person who has been studying at Yan University!"

Gu Xinxue said humorously that the editor of Nanhai Publishing Company is Zhang Chu's nobleman and Bole.

"So that's the case. Did you have lunch? Let's talk while eating." Food is the most important thing for the people, so Zhang Chu directly invited his editor to have a meal.

"I happened to be a little hungry. I had you, a rich man, treat you. I had known that I should have been hungry since last night."

Zhang Chu shrugged his shoulders and pointed to the toilet and said, "Now you can go there to use the toilet."

"There is still no need. I just saw that you were drawing it very seriously, so I didn't disturb you. It turns out that comics are so simple!"

Gu Xinxue followed Zhang Chu to the car at the door of the bookstore and said to himself: "Why are you not updating it for a week?"

"It's just an illusion. All you see is superficial effort, but in fact, it takes a lot of preparation."

After the two of them tied their seat belts, Zhang Chu started the car and drove towards the Ximen. He had lived in Ximen for a semester before and was very familiar with the surrounding places to eat, so he simply chose Jiashancheng Hot Pot on rainy days.

"Editor Gu, you said that the Emmy Award nomination was announced, why is there no movement on the book sales list?"

Zhang Chu asked while driving, which made him very puzzled.

Entertainment news came out yesterday morning, and there were a lot of discussions online later. However, judging from the sales volume announced today, there is no "Sherlock" in the top 100 physical books sales!

Gu Xinxue shrugged, "Maybe the news is lagging behind, let's see if sales will rise today. Another possibility is that the type of readership may have been saturated and basically reached the upper limit."

"It's really possible. I still hope that its cumulative sales can reach 3 million or even 5 million. There is no chance now."

"The nomination effect of "Sherlock" in the United States is quite large. The data feedback from Random House shows that the sales increase in this book in North America is the highest among the original novels nominated by Emmy Awards."

Many American dramas are adapted from novels or other literary works. When these American dramas are popular and nominated for awards, they will have a driving effect on the original works.

Shen Xia is very proud now, and it is the largest increase in the original novel, which is considered to give Zhang Chu a little comfort.
Chapter completed!
