College Construction: My Principal System Chapter 29
Advertisement
Yun Ding High School Publishing House was very efficient in publishing.
The manuscripts submitted on the same day had already been typed out the next day.
All the handwritten or printed texts had been reorganized electronically. The next step was the Dark Horse proofreading software.
This software could efficiently screen for all typos, faulty sentences, and all kind of violation of the publishing regulations in the manuscripts.
Then was to use professional typesetting software, to have the best font for their first draft.
After the first draft was completed, there was an electronic version of the manuscript draft.
Based on such a draft, the planning editor and proofreading editor would review and proofread the work.
In accordance with the publication of the relevant departments, there had to be three reviews and three rounds of proofreading.
Then the design of the cover and the text was printed separately and was packaged into a book.
Basically, the everything was completed in a month, and one could go to various online bookstores and offline physical bookstores to shop.
During this period of time. Fang Yuan was in charge of opening up libraries, chain bookstores, and independent bookstores all over the country.
He built up a complete offline sales network.
In addition, there were many online sales channels: Dangdang e-book City, Jingdong e-book City, Amazon online bookstore, and other E-stores.
Basically, they could cover all of the target markets in the country.
Soon, under Fang Yuan's control, the first batch of manuscripts submitted to Yun Ding High School Press had been listed for sale.
By the end of this month, the selling numbers would be released.
Autumn was the harvest season and the most important season to the entire publishing industry.
There were two reasons for this: First, at the end of this month, the publishing industry held a major event, the Searchlight Reading Club Book list recommendation event. The Searchlight Reading Club was the largest reading club in the country and had nearly 60 million paying users.

Every six months they released a list of recommended books, leading the members of the book club to read together. Basically, the recommended books became the most popular works in all categories of the Internet.
Because when they were recommended by the book club, with the support of 60 million readers, they would gain more exposure. Naturally, they would gain more popularity. Moreover, the sales of the books would also increase.
Therefore, for the new books that were published every month, the publishers would go all out to strive for the best-seller list.
They just want to be noticed by the Searchlight editors.
At the same time, the head of the publisher who got the most nominations for a new book will be honored as a Searchlight publisher.
From the reviewer to the publisher, to the editor, to the author.
Everyone was looking forward to the honor of being on the Searchlight recommendation list.
The second reason was that the national publishing events, the Beijing Book Fair, and the Frankfurt Book Fair were held in October.
If the Searchlight Reading Club represented the support of the people, then the book fair represented the official recognition.
The publishers and authors who stood out from the Beijing Book Fair had the chance to break out of the country and into the world.
On an official level, there would also be more support.
...
Amazon Online Mall, Kindle e-book platform.
The operations editor was setting up a recommendation spot on the front page of the site, based on real-time purchases within 30 days of the site.
There were only two books per category.
These two books represent the peak sales of the entire site for the entire month.
The operations editor had to synchronize one book per row with all his colleagues in the office to help the teams understand recent content trends, in order to better serve the users.
The operations editor who was on duty today was arranging recommendations and telling his colleagues the titles of the books he had arranged:

"The top-selling work in the current Review Essay category is 'Minus One Degree' by Han Han, from Yun Ding High School Publishing House."
"This Han Han boy was the champion of the New Concept Cup back then. At that time, there were so many gimmicks used, tjat it's not surprising for him to achieve such a result."
"Yun Ding High School has picked up a promising author. What good luck."
The colleagues were discussing animatedly at their respective posts.
The operations department continued reading:
"The top-selling work in the Youth literature category is 'How Many Flowers Fall in Dreams?' by Guo Jingming, from Yun Ding High School Press."
"Right, right, Yun Ding High School was awarded two gold medals for one school at that time. This Guo Jingming wrote 'Fleeting Times' during the exam that made many young people cry. It's said that the new book is also a tragedy, and so I haven't even dared read it yet."
"The top-selling work in the Fantasy literature category is 'Coiling Dragon'. The author, I Eat Tomatoes, comes from Yun Ding High School press."
"This... the author of 'Coiling Dragon', could it be that he is also a student of Yun Ding High School?"? "I read his book. The taste of youth adventure is very authentic. In the past few years, our local authors studied western literature and wrote more epic and fantasy novels. This 'Coiling Dragon' is really refreshing. It's normal to have such sales.". "But why is the copyright in the hands of Yun Ding High School Publishing House?"
"In the Romantic literature category, the number one in sales is 'The Girls We Fell in Love with All Those Years Ago' the author is Nine Knives, from Yun Ding High School Publishing House."
"In the Horror literature category, the number one in sales is 'Ghost Blows Out the Light.' the author is World Domination Song, from Yun Ding High School Publishing House."
"In the Science Fiction literature category, the top seller is 'Three Bodies: The Earth's Past', the author is Liu Cixin, Yun Ding High School Publishing House..."
"..."
This series of readings was all from Yun Ding High School Publishing House.
The people on Amazon's e-book team were so shocked that they were speechless.
This was because, generally speaking, every Publishing House and publishing company should have their own strengths. Some were good at fiction, some were good at non-fiction, some were good at youth novels, and some were good at adult literature. Everyone had their own home ground.
However, in the recent history of the publishing industry, there had never been such a grand occasion like this.
All the best-selling books, literally all of them were from the same publishing company.
What was even more ridiculous was that this Publishing House was a subsidiary of a private high school!
Mr. Jeremy, the Asia-pacific Director of Amazon's e-book team, slowly stood up from his desk with a serious expression:
"Dear colleagues, times have changed. We must realize that the game of dividing the heroes and servants has come to an end.
"The era of Yun Ding High School's Publishing House being the dominant one has arrived.
"Right now, for their president... or rather, for their principal, printing books is equivalent to printing money. I can foresee that the supply of goods will be far from enough.
"I will trouble my colleagues in the channel and marketing departments to contact Principal Fang Yuan as soon as possible.
"Make sure the supply is firmly in the hands of Amazon!"
The channel and marketing department simultaneously shouted "Yes, boss!"
