"Hello, is this Mr. Su Xincheng?" Su Xincheng received a strange phone call, and on the other end was an unfamiliar middle-aged man who surprisingly called him "teacher" as soon as he spoke up, which was the first time someone had addressed him with that title.

  In today's society, the word "teacher" has two meanings. The first refers to a professional educator who teaches students. The second is a polite term used as a form of address for someone older than oneself, similar to how one might refer to an older skilled worker as "Teacher Li" or "Teacher Wang", which is a more respectful title than simply calling them "Master Li" or "Master Wang".

  The other party called him Teacher Su Xichen, who obviously belongs to the latter, because he is still a junior high school student now.

  "My name is Su Zhechen, what's yours?"

  "Hello, Mr. Su Xianchen. I am the deputy editor of Yangcheng Evening News. It has been a long time since we have had new chapters of 'The Sherlock Holmes Collection'. Our readers are eagerly waiting. However, you have joined the crew of 'Journey to the West' as both a screenwriter and assistant director, so you must be very busy. We can understand that, so we haven't urged you too much."

  "But recently I heard that Teacher Su Xianchen has returned to Yangcheng. Has he completed a new chapter? If so, our newspaper will send someone over to collect it immediately."

  "Uh..." Su Lei was about to say something but suddenly stopped, thinking of something.

  Previously, Zhao called to tell him not to publish the next chapter of "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" for the time being, which is why Su Xianchen had not sent the next chapter to Yangcheng Evening News all along.

  The deputy editor-in-chief of Yangcheng Evening News suddenly called to ask for the next manuscript.

  It was Zhao Dandan who made it possible to serialize "Sherlock Holmes" in Yangcheng Evening News with his own efforts, overcoming many obstacles. So why did someone else take over this matter today? This thing is full of mystery.

  "Wait, no. You should also know that being a detective requires creativity, and you need to come up with an amazing idea to write a good story. But lately, I've been busy with the drama group's affairs, and I haven't had any mood to think creatively. I finally took a break and returned to Yang City, only to have this happen when my new book was published. Now I'm completely at my wit's end - where do I even have time to think?"

  Yangcheng Evening News, as one of the largest newspapers in Yangcheng, naturally also knew some things about this matter, so it didn't ask much.

  "Oh, I see. So that's how it is. It was really hard on you, Teacher Su Xianchen. If there are new chapters coming out, please be sure to call me and let me know. Everyone in our newspaper is waiting for your wonderful works."

  After spouting some nonsense, he hung up the phone. The other party was the deputy editor-in-chief of Yangcheng Evening News, but he kept a very low profile, using polite language throughout, which made Su Xianchen feel annoyed but not angry.

  "Has something changed with Yangcheng Evening News? Is it like the case of Deyun Publishing House, where there have been big changes within Yangcheng Evening News and Zhao Jie has been fired? However, I haven't heard any news about this. As a public figure in Yangcheng, if Zhao Jie was indeed fired, it would definitely be widely reported, but recently there hasn't been any news about this."

  Su Rui Chen couldn't figure it out and finally made a call to Zhao Dan Dan.

  "Hey, Chenchen, why did you think of calling me? Are you missing me?" Zhao Dandan's voice on the phone always had a slightly sticky tone, with a hint of coquettishness, making Su Xichen feel uncomfortable all over.

  "Sister Zhao, the deputy editor of Yangcheng Daily called me today and asked if the next chapter of 'The Sherlock Holmes Collection' has been published." Su Xichen said straightforwardly.

  "Oh, then how did you answer, Chenchen?"

  "Didn't you tell me, Zhao Jie, not to post it on Yangcheng Daily for the time being? So I answered no." Su Xichen asked curiously, "Zhao Jie, what's going on?"

  "Haha, actually it's not a big deal, but I have to say, Morning, you really gave Zhao Jie face. Yeah, that's how it is, keep up the good work." Zhao Dan said this and Su Xian Chen became even more confused, what was going on?

  "Has something happened within Yangcheng Evening News, Sister Zhao?"

  According to Su Xilai's idea, Zhao Dan should have been promoted to a higher position, previously she was only the deputy editor-in-chief of Yangcheng Evening News, and there were still editors-in-chief and publishers above her.

  However, since Zhao Dan independently proposed the revision, added sections, and strongly advocated for Su Xianchen's work to be published in Yangcheng Daily, the performance of Yangcheng Daily has been getting better and better. The reason for the increase in sales is naturally due to the addition of sections and Su Xianchen's "Sherlock Holmes Collection".

  After this incident, Zhao's position in Yangcheng Evening News even surpassed that of the editor-in-chief, and not only his position but also his power. He was in charge of both the Content Management Department and the Propaganda Department.

  But that's not all, as Su Xichen's reputation grew louder and louder, titles such as "China's youngest screenwriter" and "world's youngest deputy director" were all pinned on Su Xichen.

  It can be said that Su Rui Chen has now received attention from the national media, and Yangcheng Daily relied on Su Rui Chen's serialized "Sherlock Holmes Detective Collection" to penetrate several surrounding cities.

  Zhao Dan's reputation naturally rose with the tide, and not only was she more prominent than the editor-in-chief, but even the president of the publishing house didn't have a higher reputation than hers. The president became jealous and fired Zhao Dan.

  Of course, all of these are just supplementary plots that Su Rui Chen thought up in his own mind.

  "It's just that the boss wanted to set me up with his son, but I refused. Then there was a bit of conflict between me and the boss, so I didn't go back to the newspaper office and stayed at home."

  It seems that things are more complicated than Su Rui Chen had imagined.

  "Although I, Zhao Jie, have not been fired and am still the deputy editor-in-chief, all my tasks have been taken away, and I don't want to stay at Yangcheng Daily anymore. I want to start my own business, how about you, Chenchen, come help me?"

  Also want to set up their own business, Wang Ni is because she was fired by the publishing house and set up her own business, so she opened this Xianyishi Cultural Communication Co., Ltd. Now Zhao Dan also wants to set up her own business, it seems that she wants to create her own newspaper.

  Now he has become the chief editor of Shan Shi Cultural Communication Co., Ltd. and is already overwhelmed with work, so Su Shilei wanted to refuse as soon as she opened her mouth, but before she could speak, Zhao Dan said on the phone "Shilei, I know you've become the chief editor of Wang Ni's company, you can't be so thick-skinned and not help your sister Zhao"

  "That..."

  "Why doesn't Morning want to?" Zhao's voice was like a wronged woman in the inner chambers, making Su Xichen tremble with fear.

  "We'll talk about it later, never mind, I still have something to do here, let's chat again in a while"

  Su Xuan hung up the phone and let out a big sigh of relief. Talking to Zhao Dan was too terrifying, that kind of coquettish tone had too much destructive power, it was unbearable!!

  Since online direct sales require constant management of the website at all times, Wang Ni specially arranged for three people to handle after-sales service and some trivial inquiries.

  "Auntie, how's business?"

  "Two days 1.2 million copies sold, sales are very good" Wang Ni burst out a data.

  Two days, 120,000 copies, that is to say, the average daily sales of about 60,000 copies. To know that when Su Renshan published his first book "Wukong Biography", the first-day sales were only 10,000 copies, at that time, De Yun Publishing House used its greatest ability to promote it.

  At its peak, it only broke through 20,000 copies, but now it is sold directly online, which is more than three times the peak of "Journey to the West", so this sales volume is quite good.

  It can be said that it was a good start for Shanxi Cultural Communication Co., Ltd. Su Xichen was happy, but found that Wang Ni was not very happy.

  "Auntie, sales of 120,000 copies in two days are really good, why are you still looking so gloomy?" Su Xichen asked.

  "In the past two days, sales of 120,000 copies, with 80,000 copies sold on the first day and only 40,000 copies sold on the second day, a drop of nearly twice. Wang Nishou frowned and rubbed her brow "Does Xiao Chen know why this is?"

  It sold 800,000 copies on the first day of online sales, but only half that number on the second day. At this rate, by the fifth day it had dropped to a mere 50,000 copies. What's going on?

  Su Shuai shook his head, a look of confusion on his face, his eyes lingering on Wang Ni, hoping she could give him an answer.

  "Although Anyang Jun spent a lot of money to promote the Holmes forum and even cooperated with some popular forums, after all, the Holmes forum exists for 'The Collection of Sherlock Holmes Cases'. The first eighty percent of people who join the forum are fans of Holmes, and this group of people will be very happy to buy books online. However, this group of people will eventually become saturated, and at that time, the sales of 'The Collection of Sherlock Holmes Cases' will slow down."

  Wang Ni's words are quite obvious, although Anyang Jun has done a lot of advertising for the Holmes Forum and spent a lot of money, but after all, the pattern of the Holmes Forum is still too small.

  The Holmes Forum, under the loud promotion of Anyang Jun, has a total of only 1.5 million members. Even if each of these 1.5 million members buys one book, the sales volume of "The Collection of Sherlock Holmes" would be at most 1.5 million copies, which is much lower than that of "Journey to the West".

  Moreover, these 1.5 million people are not all going to buy it, those who will buy have almost all bought on the first day, and some even bought more than one copy, which is why there is such a big difference in sales between the first and second days.

  After the Holmes forum is saturated, it will indeed be like Wang Ni said that sales will slow down.

  Wang Ni discovered the problem yesterday and mobilized all resources to promote it, but the effect was still not good, at most adding a few hundred copies of sales for "The Collection of Sherlock Holmes".

  In fact, the incident of Deyun Publishing House banning "The Sherlock Holmes Collection" is known in the industry. Although it's not a big deal, two days have passed and there has been no news about it. Even if some small newspapers reported on this, they didn't cause much of a stir.

  There are one or two publishing houses in Yangcheng that can rival Deyun Publishing House, but none can match its background. The big shots of the Radio and Television Bureau have publicly praised the books published by Deyun Publishing House.

  If it weren't for the greed of the president of De Yun Publishing House and the vampire-like behavior that caused some authors to leave, De Yun Publishing House would have dominated Yang City long ago.

  Actually, DeYun Press initially wanted to pirate the "Sherlock Holmes Collection", and if Su Lei Chen didn't give up, they would continue pirating it.

  But don't forget that Su Zhenchen still has an amnesty card on him, and it's precisely because of this amnesty card that he couldn't get his way, so he retreated and used this method instead.

  "Auntie, I have a plan" Su Xincheng was ready to use his trump card now, in fact he had never used this trump card before, but now it couldn't be helped.

  "What method"

  "Auntie, don't worry about it, anyway it's definitely a good solution that can solve the problem."

  Logged in IQ, Anyang Jun sent a message "Sorry, it seems I thought things were too simple. Now the number of people on the forum has reached a bottleneck, and no matter what kind of promotion is done online, it can't break through this bottleneck. Should I promote it in real life?"

  Su Shichen believed that with the strength shown by Anyang Jun, if he were to exert himself in reality, it would definitely cause a stir. However, Su Shichen refused, saying "No need, I already have a way."

  "It's really not necessary for me to help, what's the point of that? Anyway, it's just a small publishing house, and he's making such a big deal out of it. If he gets angry, he'll just smash it." An Yang Jun has a pretty hot temper too, every time he opens his mouth, it's all about smashing things.

  "I've really thought of a way, and I'm sure it will cause the sales of 'Sherlock Holmes' to skyrocket"

  "En, na jiu deng ni de hao xia xi."

  Translation: "Well, I'm looking forward to your good news."

  After finishing the chat with Anyang Jun, Su Xichen took out his mobile phone and prepared to unleash a killer move that would shock heaven and earth.
