MTL - Pat Me Please-Chapter 85
After Xiang Wan went back, Yu Zhou thought a lot.
She understands the truth, otherwise how would she have taught Xiang Wan before? But in many cases, it is one thing to understand, another thing to do, one thing to others, another thing to yourself.
At the end of May, almost the beginning of June, the weather began to turn hot, and I smelled the prelude to last summer again.
Yu Zhoulu continued to update several chapters of "Help Me Pat", but it felt a little raw. Some readers advised her tactfully: "Chai Chai, don't worry, why don't we stop and take our time, we can wait." .”
The reader's consideration and tenderness made her a little sad.
The phone vibrated and received a message from the editor, reminding her to remember to open.
Only then did she vaguely remember that it was the day when the physical book of "The Altar" was released.
In fact, she was not very excited. When she first signed the contract, she had spent all the joy that the process might bring in her mind. It took a while to choose the cover and received the sample booklet. , smelled the fragrance of ink on the pages of the book, and then saw the word "Shen Bai" inside.
Shen Bai appeared too many times, and gradually turned into Su Chang.
By the time she went online for business, the microblog of the physical book had already been forwarded thousands of times.
She was a little dazed and a little surprised that so many readers were waiting for the arrival of the physical book. It seems that for them, it is a very happy thing.
They were saying "finally", as if they had waited for Shen Bai and Qiao Qiao for a long, long time.
Yu Zhou suddenly felt sorry for this waiting. She seemed to understand what Xiang Wan said. There may be many means, as a medium, to introduce previously unknown readers to meet this story. The end point, and the most romantic place, is always the encounter between the reader and Shen Bai and Qiao Qiao.
Reposted Weibo Business and received a message from Peng Houzhi.
Ask her out to dinner.
Yu Zhou was a little surprised that Peng Yuzhi rarely asked her out alone, but Peng Yuzhi quickly said that Xiang Wan was also there.
So she packed up and went out, and the three of them sat down near the previous shopping center and had a meal of new Sichuan cuisine.
After chatting casually for a while, Peng Houzhi said, let's go shopping in the shopping mall.
Take the escalator to go shopping, and when you reach the fourth floor, there is a CITIC bookstore in front of you. On one side is the reading area, and on the other side is the coffee shop for chatting.
Peng Yuzhi said, "Come on, go in and see if there are any books of yours."
"How can it be so fast to distribute the goods?" Yu Zhou was pulled in reluctantly.
Sure enough, after shopping around, there was indeed no "Sacred Shrine". Yu Zhou had already been mentally prepared, but when he looked at the rows of bookshelves, he still had a faint expectation in his heart.
They sat down in the chatting area and ordered a few cups of coffee. Peng Houzhi curled his lips: "Unfortunately, I thought I could see it today."
"Tell me," she propped her head up and pouted in the reading area, "I've never been an author before, tell me, if an author sees someone sitting there with his book in his hands, how would he feel? Nervous? Excited? Stealing Looking at people, or are you so moved that you want to cry?"
She thought to herself, if she looked at the readers' expressions face to face, she should be both nervous and proud.
Uh... Of course, it may also be regarded as a pervert.
"I don't know." Yu Zhou said with a smile.
Looking to the other side, there are neatly arranged reading areas. Several readers stand or sit, open a book, and use their precious tranquility to exchange a story in black and white.
"How many copies of your batch have you printed? Can you distribute them here?" Peng Houzhi asked again.
"Hundreds of thousands of volumes, I forgot the specifics." Yu Zhou's mind was a little confused.
"Hey, more than a hundred thousand volumes?" Peng Houzhi thought it was amazing, "We haven't even reached 100,000 radio dramas yet."
Suddenly hearing her mention radio drama, Yu Zhou was a little silent.
"What's the matter, I'm acting for you, and you're making a show of revenge? Why do you act like I owe you money!" Peng Yuzhi yelled at her.
"I didn't mean that." Yu Zhou quickly explained.
Peng Yuzhi snorted at her, took a sip of coffee, and sighed: "You may not know us. Over the years, we have prepared too many things, such as games, movies, radio dramas, and advertisements. There are too many. Too much."
"Not every one of our works is popular, or even every one attracts attention."
"You know what you write, right? Even if your author has over 200,000 collections, or you have 500,000 Weibo fans, not every book will be popular, right?" Peng Yanzhi glanced at her.
"A thing, a cooperation thing, if it becomes popular, it will be at the right time, place and people, as well as luck, both of which are indispensable. The original work is an important cornerstone of it. Of course, our interpretation is also very important, hahaha Hahahaha." She said without humility.
"Why do you think the current netizens are stupid? A **** story, put together a platter, collect some cards, collect a flash card, and it will become popular. Let me tell you, it is impossible. Even if it is popular, there will be no word of mouth. We will still be scolded, just bad money."
Peng Hengzhi sighed with a "tsk".
"If you want to write a story that insults people's IQ, it is impossible for someone to buy it just because you are one of the Eight Great Imperial Envoys and the Seventh Prince, right? There is a reason."
"Achieving results is because it is indeed a good thing. This good thing is interlocking, indispensable, and mutual achievement. How can there be whoever takes the lead and whoever wins?"
Yu Zhou was a little moved and looked up at her.
"Besides, different creative forms have different audiences. If you are full and full, who is higher and who is lower. Look, I just said you. The book has more than 100,000 copies, and our follow-up dramas are less than 100,000. , Where did the extra tens of thousands come from? Is there anyone who walks into a bookstore, opens this book, and simply enjoys reading, but never knows radio dramas? , what about those who just want to enjoy the sound?"
"Readers and listeners overlap, but they are not completely overlapping, and they cannot be equal. Both are good, and mutual benefit is the best result. You just enjoy the communication between you and your readers. If you are too Caring about what’s there and what’s not, that’s really, honestly, kind of silly. It’s a dead end.”
"Today you feel that the radio drama has brought you, and tomorrow if a big V pushes your book to make you popular, you also feel that you have to kowtow to others, don't you? You write something, and your backbone is used here. Is it on the top? Is it for you to think about whether to kowtow to others? Isn’t your backbone on your pen?”
Peng Hou was about to talk dry, she felt that she was really earnest, she didn't want to talk anymore, she wished she could hit her.
"Let me tell you, I didn't become a supporting director just because of Su Chang's friendship. I read your book first."
"Congee Congee," she finally said, "When we first met, you said that I was handsome, powerful, and shiny, so I was not easy to get close to. Let me tell you now, what makes me shine is not professional. , is love."
The love of sound work is the only and the greatest confidence that I have come to today.
Hope the text is yours too.
Holding the warm coffee in his hand, Yu Zhou raised his eyes and looked at the rows of bookshelves that made time stop and expand.
After finishing his speech, Peng Houzhi suddenly glanced at Xiang Wan, hesitant to speak.
"that…"
She wanted to talk about Su Chang, she wanted to tell Yu Zhou about Su Chang's situation.
But Xiang Wan shook his head. As a friend, she can comfort Yu Zhou who has lost his self-confidence, but she doesn't think that she should be involved in their love.
Whether two people are suitable or not, you have to explore by yourself, there is no need for a third mouth to say.
Peng Houzhi received her meaning, sighed and stopped.
At the end of June, the homepage of Yu Zhou’s Weibo became lively, and so did Su’s super chat, and even fans on the forum built a tall building to take stock of and Anli Su’s works from June last year to June this year, and then a line of fine print said : Happy birthday to Su Sang.
There is a link below to promote Su Sang's annual birthday live broadcast at 8 pm on June 27th.
In the Tuwei app, to interact with fans, interested listeners can participate.
The interface of the live broadcast is different this time. The platform specially changed the background of the birthday cake in Su Chang's live broadcast room. Even the live broadcast on the Internet was very lively.
Fans poured in, and just at the beginning, the popularity value reached 80,000 to 70,000, and it is still rising.
Although I don’t know the exact number of people, because the popularity value is increased by the popularity of gifts, but I think it will not be too small, because the screen is almost destroyed by the message, and it is stuck three or four times during the process, and the people behind can’t get in directly. up.
After all, this is Su Chang's rare live broadcast.
Her voice is very soft, coupled with her deep blue head, it seems that she is left after a catastrophe, and it seems that everything has not started yet.
This huge celebration was so lively that it seemed as if she could pick stars for her. The people who loved her expressed their sincerity. Su Chang remembered them one by one, but she would not say it, she never said it.
Su Chang is a person so strong that everyone thinks that she has no weaknesses. She is confident, gentle, unhurried, calm and calm. She seems to be able to do anything with ease. In the ten years since her debut, she has never embarrassed anyone.
Like her avatar, she is an unseen ocean, and rumors of miscellaneous rumors show their fangs again and again under the calm water.
But she never seemed to care.
She is looking at a small boat on the sea, and she takes care of it with the moonlight, sometimes rolling, sometimes shaking, sometimes lying obediently.
In the endless sea, the waves are her treasures to give back to the audience. There are her real echoes in it, as well as the shiny shells pushed to the shore after the storm.
And this Ye Xiaozhou only belongs to her.
People usually have a good logic called pity, which means that when you think that a person has everything, wealth, talent, status, prestige, appearance, family background, everything is complete, he is the perfect of perfection, the best of the strong. strong.
Then she will often be given up because she is not vulnerable enough.
Since she seems to have so much to support her, she should be strong.
She still has too much love, which keeps coming into her, and of course, people who come and go also keep abandoning her.
Su Chang looked at these familiar and unfamiliar IDs, smiled and sent his heartfelt thanks.
One ride is enough.
Peng Yuzhi came, and so did Xiang Wan. After buying some cake gifts, Xiang Wan said, "Boss, happy birthday."
Although there were already rumors in the market, this was the first time she called Su Chang "boss", which was the final word on her signing to Su Chang.
The live broadcast room was boiling, a grand celebration, and one after another partners came in to send blessings to Su Chang.
At 12 o'clock, fans and friends started swiping the screen.
they said—
"The whole world should love Su Sing."
After brushing for a long time, people can't even look at it.
Su Chang was lying on the bed, leaning against the head of the bed, without turning on the light, outside was a bright moon covered by tall buildings.
She smiled lightly into the microphone and said, "Thank you to the whole world that loves me."
