After rebirth, I became a great master

Chapter 143 Book Editing
Zhou Haoran promised Director Meng that he would work hard from now on.

But it is difficult to implement.

He will be busy selling books in the near future.

First go to find the bookseller Jiang Xiong, he contacted the bookmark printing factory to print a batch of bookmarks first.

The design of the bookmark doesn't have to be too novel.

A long bookmark will do.

The main thing is to print the photo of the top scorer in the college entrance examination, and also to print a motto of the top scorer.

This one is easy.

Fast speed and low cost.

If it is a signed photo, the cost of one photo is one dollar.

Bookmarks are so cheap.

A bookmark only costs a few cents.

After making contact here, Zhou Haoran went to find his friends who were working hard on the front line selling books.

You know what, these guys are pretty good!

Growing rapidly!
Especially Wang Wenrui and Tian Yueran, who were bold, careful and not panicky, became important figures in dealing with school leaders.

In comparison, the two top scorers in the college entrance examination, who were the focus of the halo, seemed a little dim.

Three days no see.

They secured another six large orders totaling 6 copies!

At noon that day, Zhou Haoran ran over and asked the two top scorers in the college entrance examination to write down their mottos, saying that they would be used as bookmarks.

Ma Huilei, the top scorer in the liberal arts exam, wrote in clear, beautiful handwriting, "A sail without a mast is a useless piece of cloth; an ideal without action is like a mist." — Ma Huilei, Qibao Middle School, Class of 96.

Sheng Weicheng is a bit careless.

Said he had no motto.

I don’t know what to write!
Zhou Haoran told him to write whatever he wanted, anything was fine.

Sheng Weicheng just casually wrote: "Without the accumulation of small steps, one cannot reach a thousand miles; without the accumulation of small streams, one cannot form a river or sea."

After collecting the notes from the two, he took them to a photo studio to take pictures.

There are clothes in the photo studio.

Dress formally so that the photos you take will be more appealing.

While taking pictures, Dongfang Lang came over and said, "The book selling plan may need to be adjusted."

Zhou Haoran asked: "How to adjust?"

Dongfang Langdao said, "There are over a hundred high schools in the city, and 30 of them are key high schools. I think we should just go to those key high schools. Ordinary high schools don't have much purchasing interest."

"It's foreseeable that signing a contract with a regular high school will be more troublesome."

Zhou Haoran had such a guess.

He also had this experience during the two days he led the team.

Dongfang Lang said, "If it's just a hassle, it's nothing. The main problem is that ordinary high schools have some objective restrictions. Key high schools have a lot of students, generally several thousand. Ordinary high schools are very small, with only a few hundred students in their senior year. Unless we can change the signing conditions, we can also accept orders of several hundred books."

"Don't do it."

Zhou Haoran rejected the proposal.

This is a student team after all.

Simplify the process as much as possible and avoid overly complicated business to avoid unnecessary complications.

It is easy to do it in key high schools, so just focus on key high schools.

Dongfang Lang asked tentatively, "So that's what we'll do?"

"Okay, let's do as you say." Zhou Haoran estimated, "If we only focus on key high schools, we should be able to cover the entire city by the end of this month, right?"

Dongfang Lang smiled and said, "Almost."

Zhou Haoran said, "Then do it as soon as possible. The books have been printed. Once the order is signed, they will be delivered. You will have to come along when the time comes. You can ask the team leader to come along."

Dongfang Lang whispered, "It seems that this second step is close to success."

"Yeah." Zhou Haoran hadn't expected it to go so smoothly. "These days, this kind of physical goods sales business is easier to do than the virtual goods sales business like advertising."

Dongfang Lang said, "If we want to take the third step and promote the 'Secrets of the College Entrance Examination Champion' nationwide, we can't use the current manuals. The secrets of the college entrance examination champions are not widely available."

Zhou Haoran nodded, "I know."

"What should I do?"

"You do it!"

"I?"

Dongfang Lang was confused.

Zhou Haoran smiled and said, "You will be the editor-in-chief and edit the book."

"What?"

Dongfang Lang was shocked and raised his voice, attracting the attention of others.

Zhou Haoran pulled him out of the photo studio and whispered, "You said it yourself, the stuff written by the top scorer in the college entrance exam isn't universally applicable. But the third step in selling the book is nationwide promotion, so it has to be universal knowledge. Since the top scorer's stuff isn't applicable, we'll have to write our own."

Dongfang Lang was a little breathless, "How can I be that good?"

"Simple!"

Zhou Haoran downplayed it.

Dongfang Lang was both angry and amused. "That's easy for you to say. Why don't you become the editor-in-chief?"

Zhou Haoran said, "I can be the editor-in-chief. I'll just provide a general framework, and the specific editing will have to be done by you, the squad leader, Li Yang, Tian Yueran, and the others." "Isn't that nonsense?"

Dongfang Lang thought this was ridiculous.

Writing teaching aids?
Then he must at least be a special teacher who has been in the profession for decades, right?
These young men who just graduated from high school want to compile a set of teaching aids to tutor senior high school students across the country. Isn't this misleading the students?

"It's just compiling a book. I'm not asking you to compile the Complete Library of the Four Treasures. How difficult is that..." Zhou Haoran said unconcernedly, "It's easy. You just prepare first. I'll make arrangements later, and we'll start over."

……

Hu Xiaochen was a little nervous.

This is her first time shooting and producing a commercial!
Now, the two tapes have been handed over.

One was handed over to the advertising department of the Lifestyle Channel, and the other was handed over to the advertising department of the Comprehensive Channel.

According to the plan, it will start broadcasting from tomorrow.

If the ad isn't well received by the market...

"Haoran, why aren't you worried at all?"

Hu Xiaochen was worried.

She was on the third floor, and came to the comprehensive channel with Zhou Haoran to deliver the tape.

Zhou Haoran said with a smile: "There's nothing to worry about. Our advertising is so good."

"just in case……"

"It will definitely work."

"You're so confident." Hu Xiaochen sighed softly, "I don't have your mentality. Forget about commercials. Every time my 'Family Gossip' show airs, I get so nervous."

"Ah?" Zhou Haoran was surprised. "Your mentality is really too bad, isn't it?"

Hu Xiaochen said with a sad face: "Yes, so I want to learn from you."

Zhou Haoran said, "As expected, people are all the same. They shout for what they need."

Hu Xiaochen didn't quite understand, "What are you yelling about?"

Zhou Haoran smiled and said, "You're very nervous and worried inside, so you have to pretend to be cold and calm on the outside to cover up your inner panic."

"Really?" Hu Xiaochen had never thought about it that way. "I just take Teacher Tang as my role model and learn from her."

Zhou Haoran said, "This is psychology, something subconscious. You may not notice it, but your subconscious mind is already guiding you to do this."

"Then what should I do?" Hu Xiaochen pleaded, looking rather pitiful. "Haoran, I'm relying on you for guidance. You're the smartest boy I've ever met."

Zhou Haoran said, "It's actually very simple. The lack of mentality is actually the lack in real life. Just make up for it."

Hu Xiaochen asked curiously, "What do you mean?"

Zhou Haoran simply explained: "For example, if you have 100 yuan, you will feel bad if you spend 50 yuan, and you will be nervous if you buy an 80 yuan piece of clothing. But if you have 100 million yuan, you won't blink an eye when you spend a few dozen yuan."

Hu Xiaochen's eyes lit up, and he said with sudden realization, "My inner fear comes from the lack of reality?"

Zhou Haoran laughed and said, "Yeah, is it because the competition in the program team is too fierce? You might lose your job at any time?"

"Haoran, you're so smart, you understand me so well..." Hu Xiaochen was shocked, then he didn't care and took his arm, "No, you must accept me as your disciple, I will follow you."

Zhou Haoran quickly jumped away, "What are you doing? We're at work!"

Hu Xiaochen looked up at him, his eyes watery. "That's right, you're right. I'm the leader of the second editing and composing group, but my position as leader is only temporary. If I don't do a good job, I could be demoted back to being an ordinary editor at any time. The leader of Group 1 has already been replaced. If I were to be demoted back to being an ordinary editor, I'd be too embarrassed to see anyone."

Zhou Haoran nodded. "That's right. This has become a subconscious thought. If you were a first-tier official with a clear administrative position, where no one could change your position, you wouldn't have such worries."

"Official position?" Hu Xiaochen laughed bitterly. "My family doesn't have any connections, so how could I get a regular position?"

Zhou Haoran said: "We need to find a backer."

Hu Xiaochen said with a smile: "I found it, it's you. You are my master, you come and follow me."

"Me?" Zhou Haoran didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "How can I be your backer? I can't even protect myself!"

Hu Xiaochen became confident at this time, "You can do it, I can see it! I feel... I feel that you are even better than Teacher Tang! Anyway, I am obsessed with you!"

"Stop pestering me, I'm going on a date."

"Dating?"

"Well, I fell in love with a girl, so I went to have dinner with her."

"Who?"

Hu Xiaochen was very curious.

Zhou Haoran said frankly: "A female host on the station, Bai Panyang."

"Oh, it's her!" Hu Xiaochen knew this person. "She's a real beauty, not comparable to those female hosts who rely on heavy makeup to look good on camera. She's several years older than you. Do you want to pursue her?"

Zhou Haoran said nonchalantly, "There's no age limit for this kind of thing."

Hu Xiaochen started gossiping and asked with great interest, "Where are you going on a date? To the movies?"

"Watch a movie?" Zhou Haoran wasn't interested. "That would be a waste of time. Let's just have dinner together. She's asked me out several times. It's not good to refuse her all the time."

Hu Xiaochen opened her beautiful eyes wide, "She asked you out?"

Zhou Haoran glanced at her sideways and didn't answer, "This has nothing to do with you, right?"

Hu Xiaochen smiled and said, "I'm a woman. If you can't catch up with her, I'll give you a few tricks. Maybe they will work."

"Huh?" Zhou Haoran's eyes lit up. "Are you an experienced person?"

Hu Xiaochen felt that his expression was strange, and his words were full of hidden meanings. "What do you mean by 'experienced'? What do you mean?"

"Forget it, don't ask such nonsense as a girl."

As soon as Zhou Haoran saw her condition, he knew the result and thought he could ask her for some advice as someone who had experienced it.
