After the college entrance exam, he began to become a male god of extraction.

After taking a shower, Xu Qin had quite a few things to do.

By the time he finished everything, it was already past six in the afternoon.

Xu Qin called his mother and briefly reported what had happened that day.

The child travels thousands of miles and the mother is worried.

Xu Qin lived at home from kindergarten to high school, and this was his first real trip away from home.

His mother would also ask him how his roommates were, how his classmates were, and other similar questions.

In short, Mom is quite worried about Xu Qin.

After talking to his mother for half an hour, Xu Qin also dealt with Xia Qingyun's messages.

Xia Qingyun's registration is complete, and she has also settled her check-in and other matters.

As for Mr. and Mrs. Xia, they will stay in the new city for one night and leave at noon tomorrow.

The family of three is currently out for dinner.

"I almost forgot that my book was released today."

Xu Qin was too busy today and didn't notice Zheng Fanghong's message.

I just saw it now.

Zheng Fanghong has sent a lot of messages.

"Eight thousand copies have been sold so far?"

Xu Qin was inevitably surprised.

"The First Year of Xincheng" has only 350,000 words and is not divided into volumes, such as upper, middle and lower volumes. Therefore, Xu Qin's volume is a whole book, but Zheng Fanghong's side is used to calling it a volume.

The first batch of "New City Year One" was 20,000 copies, of which 12,000 copies were sold online and 8,000 copies were sold offline through Tianhuo Bookstore, published by Tianhuo Publishing House.

A few minutes later, Zheng Fanghong's message arrived.

"Haha, Mr. Xu, I have good news for you. The 8,000 copies were sold at 2 PM, and now, according to the latest information, a total of over 16,000 copies have been sold online and offline! The online copies are sold out, and there are still over 3,000 copies left in physical bookstores."

"So fast?"

Xu Qin was no longer calm.

He clearly hadn't expected it to sell so quickly.

Why are so many people buying my book?

Don't underestimate 20,000 copies. Each book costs 60 yuan, and supporting it with real money is a whole different story.

Zheng Fanghong: "Online, because people from all over the country are buying online, it sells out very quickly. Offline, only my bookstore sells it, and only people from Xincheng buy it, so the sales speed is slower."

Zheng Fanghong: "Given the current situation, we've decided to increase the print run. Mr. Xu, how about temporarily printing an additional 300,000 copies?"

"Mr. Zheng, you can make the arrangements," Xu Qin said.

"Okay, how about releasing these 9 copies on September 5th?"

"Can."

"If all goes well, when this book sells over 100,000 or even 300,000 copies, its popularity will grow, and more people will buy the book. This is a kind of celebrity effect. After that, more bookstores will want our book."

Xu Qin could understand seeing this message.

When he goes to the bookstore, sometimes he doesn't even know what books to buy.

Until I saw some books with titles like "Millions of copies sold," "So-and-so said this and that," or "The number one book on power politics," etc.

Such catchy words always attract attention.

However, if a book can sell hundreds of thousands, millions, or even more copies, it proves that the book is indeed good and can at least withstand the test of the market.

Those ridiculous gimmicks may fool people, but data doesn't lie, unless the data is fabricated.

After finishing my chat with Zheng Fanghong.

Xu Qin logged into the Chiyu Forum and posted a new announcement after the chapter "New City Year One":

"Currently, of the first batch of 20,000 copies of 'New City Year One,' 12,000 copies have already sold out online, while the Tianhuo Bookstore in New City is still selling them offline. In addition, after discussing with the person in charge of Tianhuo Publishing House, we have decided to print an additional 300,000 copies, which will be released on September 5. Please look forward to it."

……

"Congratulations to the author! It looks like this book is selling quite well."

"It sold out online on the first day, so it's quite popular, right?"

"Does anyone in the new city know if they could help me buy two copies?"

"Me too!"

"I've watched the author grow. I discovered him with his first book. To be honest, I thought his first book was alright, but with his second book, it was like he suddenly unlocked his full potential. Especially his writing style, which improved day by day. Given time, the author is truly destined to become a great writer!"

"Indeed, it's been a long time since I've seen such a promising newcomer, and the author is a freshman at Chi University, so his future is limitless!"

……

"Xu Qin, I bought your book!"

Xia Qingyun sent a message around 7 p.m.

It turned out that she went to Tianhuo Bookstore and bought Xu Qin's book there.

"Thank you for your support, Tear Beauty Mark! (Hands clasped together)"

"My dad got one too!"

"Then please thank your uncle for his support."

"Dad, Xu Qin said he appreciates your support."

Xia Qingyun showed Xu Qin's information to Xia Jingxing.

After reading it, Lao Xia nodded.

Old Xia had already finished reading Xu Qin's book.

Actually, for a man as well-read and experienced as him, his writing is not bad, but it can't be called excellent.

For example, Lao Xia felt that the book lacked depth of thought.

But then Lao Xia had another thought.

Xu Qin is only eighteen years old this year, even a month younger than his own daughter.

This young man can already be described as a rising star in the literary world.

And, barring any unforeseen circumstances, he can go very far.

Xu Qin should have a bright future.

Unexpectedly, Xu Qin, who just started writing his novel in June, can now have his work available in bookstores just over two months later.

They even have to queue up to buy books.

This truly surprised Lao Xia.

"Hey Xu, wanna play ball?"

Zhou Botao called out to Xu Qin.

Zhou Botao has just arrived at Chida University and has already joined the university's basketball group.

On the 25th, the largest number of people who came to the school were freshmen. Students from the other three grades came in small numbers, but not a small number either.

There are already players active on the field.

Go!

Xu Qin figured he had nothing else to do, so he decided to play some ball.

Soon, Xu Qin and Zhou Botao went to the court, and Xu Qin quickly got into the zone and started sweating profusely.

Half an hour later, we took a break.

Xu Qin noticed that several senior students were watching the tennis court next door play.

The basketball courts and tennis courts here are separated by iron netting, with eight basketball courts and eight tennis courts on each side.

"Who is that girl?"

Xu Qin noticed that all the senior students were looking at the same girl.

This girl is very tall, I'd guess she's around 1.75 meters. She's wearing tennis clothes: a white short-sleeved shirt, a black skirt, and short leggings. Her long, beautiful legs are even more clearly visible and show off her amazing athletic lines under the lights.

Xu Qin looked over and saw the girl leap up, her resolute and beautiful face covered in sweat. With an invincible posture and tension, she swung her tennis racket and hit the tennis ball in the air with a powerful blow. The tennis ball shot towards her opponent like a cannonball.

With a thud, her opponent failed to catch the ball.

"good!"

On Xu Qin's side, one of the senior students shouted and started clapping. Several other senior students also shouted and clapped, making it look like a large group of people were clapping.

"Senior, who is this girl?"

Xu Qin asked one of the senior students.

The senior said, "Her name is Qi Jingheng (pronounced 'heng' in the second tone). She's from the tennis academy, a sophomore, your senior."

"Hey junior, what do you think of this senior? She's got great looks and figure, right?"

Another senior student came over, his smile a little lewd.

Xu Qin simply asked, "Does this senior have a boyfriend?"

"She doesn't have a boyfriend. She's a potential world champion, and you can often see her on the tennis court. To her, men are probably not as precious as tennis."

"Damn it, I wonder which guy will be able to win over this beauty in the future."

Several senior students each said one sentence.

"What is a potential world champion?" Xu Qin asked curiously.

"It means exactly what it says. You're new here, junior, so you probably don't know this, but our Chida University Tennis Academy is famous for producing national and world tennis champions. Take Qi Jingheng, for example. She won the Xincheng University League during the summer vacation and won the championship. Her next step is the Eastern Six Provinces University League and the National University League."

"Old Liu, there's something you didn't mention. The Xincheng University League is a very high-level league, one of the top leagues among university leagues. She won it all, so I reckon she can directly enter the provincial team and compete for the national championship in her junior year!"

"Actually, if she performs well in the National College League, she can skip the provincial team and enter the national team. Those players with the most monstrous talent are already world champions in their early twenties. By the time they retire, they will have won two or three championships, or have already achieved a grand slam in all leagues at a young age."

According to what everyone says.

"That powerful?"

Xu Qin was surprised.

He originally thought that this senior student just played tennis, just like him, and that playing basketball was just a hobby.

But I didn't expect the other party to be a professional player?
