Chapter 63 “Wuthering Heights” publicity plan
Since “Jane Eyre” is still in the filming and cannot be released in a short time, Kevin can only wait for the time to come, and then they will know what the real box office sales are.
In the past few days, in addition to writing manuscripts for Time Magazine, he has continued to write Wuthering Heights, and he sent it to Enni every five chapters he wrote. This was also what Enni asked. This woman in her thirties was already full of curiosity about the plot inside, so he wanted to finish it as soon as possible.
After Kevin sent the last five chapters to Enni, Wuthering Heights was officially finished. After reading the five chapters sent by Kevin, the editor-in-chief Enni also felt that it was time to promote Wuthering Heights.
So, Enni planned to discuss with Kevin about the promotion. Considering that Kevin is still in school, it is not good to ask for leave often when he is not taking a leave of absence. She decided to visit Edinburgh in person with her assistant. And the two also agreed to meet in the Royal Hotel.
Enni is still like that, often wearing a standard professional attire, which looks very strict. Of course, she is also a rigorous editor-in-chief, and she will definitely support the authors and manuscripts she likes. Just like Kevin now.
“Hello, editor-in-chief Enni, we meet again.” Kevin said enthusiastically.
“Kevin, we don’t need to be so polite between us. Come here today, there are two things to discuss with you. The first is the release time of “Jane Eyre”. Considering that “Manchester Night” is in There was a big box office fire last week. I don’t know if Crankd Films will postpone the release.” Enni said.
“Please don’t worry about this. I have called Director Hudson a few days ago. I implore him to release according to his plan, because I have said countless times that the box office of “Jane Eyre” will definitely create this year. A new record for British films.” Kevin said confidently.
“Well, you are still so confident. Let’s talk about the promotion of Wuthering Heights. This time you and the London Literature Publishing House signed a sharing contract for Wuthering Heights, so sales also determine your income. We would like to ask if you have any good suggestions for the promotion of “Wuthering Heights”?” At this time, the editor-in-chief Enni said the real topic of looking for Kevin in Edinburgh this time.
Yes, according to the publishing contract signed by Kevin and the London Literature Publishing House, sales do affect Kevin’s income. Therefore, this time, the editor-in-chief Enni also intends to ask Kevin for advice.
“Will you promote “Wuthering Heights” vigorously regardless of the conditions?” Kevin asked.
“Of course, I also asked the president before I came. We have high hopes for “Wuthering Heights”, so we plan to invest more promotion resources. As long as these programs can affect the sales of “Wuthering Heights” or the copyright. Good results.” Enni said seriously.
“Well, I do have a publicity method. But the cost may be higher.” Kevin said.
“Oh, let’s talk about it. Maybe we don’t care. You should know that what we are creating this time is a record-breaking novel.” Enni said.
At this time, Kevin took out his mobile phone and opened a photo. There was a beautiful girl in the photo. Behind this beautiful girl is a desolate villa. Next to the desolate villa are two big trees that are about to die. The fading scenery made the girl more charming.
“Bella? Isn’t this girl Bella? Does this have anything to do with the promotion of “Wuthering Heights”?” Enni asked puzzledly.
This photo is a picture of Bella that Kevin found on the Internet. Because he felt it was more suitable for the scene in “Wuthering Heights”, he saved it in his mobile phone.
“Yes, don’t you think this background is suitable for the cover of “Wuthering Heights”? This girl is like Catherine Oshaw in the story, and isn’t Heathcliff’s Wuthering Heights behind her?” Kay Wen said.
According to Kevin, Enni and her assistant do have this feeling, but what does this have to do with the promotion of “Wuthering Heights”?
“But I still don’t understand the connection between this picture of Bella and the promotion of “Wuthering Heights”. Dear Kevin, maybe you shouldn’t sell it.” Enni said.
“Well, I mean we can ask Bella to shoot the cover of “Wuthering Heights” and then publicize “Wuthering Heights” so that more people can know its existence.” Kevin said.
“Using stars to promote novels hasn’t been done in literary propaganda circles? And no one’s novels have chosen to use celebrities’ heads as their covers. You must know that asking a star to shoot a cover requires a lot of cost, and If the sales of this novel are not good, maybe you will lose more.” Enni analyzed.
Enni’s analysis is correct. At present, there is no writer in the UK who invites a star to do the cover of a novel when a new book is on the market, or to help with publicity. You know, the price of a star is not low. Without knowing what the sales of novels are, no publishing house has dared to take such a risk.
“Dear Enni, I think I need to try anything, right? And I am confident that even if one more star is used to promote “Wuthering Heights”, it will not lose money. Of course, we don’t have that need, yes. One is enough,” Kevin said.
Kevin’s idea only came up last night. When he saw this photo of Bella and “Wuthering Heights” so suitable, he had this inspiration.
Kevin certainly knows that no writer has tried to do this yet, but he thinks that novels can also be fashionable, especially in terms of promotion. Now food, medicine, even a piece of diapers can invite celebrities to do publicity, so why can’t novels?
Therefore, Kevin believes that if a good novel wants to create different data, it must abandon those traditional views and make promotion and publicity fashionable.
“Of course, your idea is good. But have you ever thought that even if you are willing to spend money to ask a star to promote the cover of “Wuthering Heights”, will the star be willing to accept it? Especially Bella, Bella At present, she is one of the most prosperous actresses in the UK. She has a lot of dramas and advertising lists. Maybe she will not accept our invitation.” Enni’s editor-in-chief analyzed.
“Please rest assured, I have the confidence to get Bella. I think Bella will like “Wuthering Heights”. When she sees “Wuthering Heights”, maybe she won’t refuse our invitation.” Kay Wen said.
After being in contact with Bella for a while, Kevin has also learned that this 19-year-old girl is also full of great interest in literature. She said that no matter how busy the filming is, she would take the time to read literary works.
Kevin has reason to believe that all people who like literary works cannot resist “Wuthering Heights”. After all, this work had a desire that many people couldn’t let go of once it was read Are you really confident that Bella can do the cover for “Wuthering Heights”? “Enni asked suspiciously.
“Of course, if I can’t do it, you can ignore my suggestion at all. But I think I can do it,” Kevin said.
“If Bella is really willing to promote the cover of “Wuthering Heights”, our London Literary Publishing House will not lack the money from the star, or increase the promotion.”
Enni saw that Kevin was so confident, and she suddenly felt that this was a good propaganda method in her heart. After all, the appeal of celebrities is powerful. Perhaps this will not only attract Bella’s fans to buy “Wuthering Heights”, but also let more people know about the existence of this book.
“Well, that’s my suggestion. I am responsible for contacting Bella. When Bella agrees to shoot the cover for “Wuthering Heights”, you can follow your own ideas to publicize. I believe you have A mature plan in this regard.” Kevin said.
“Of course, then we are always waiting for your good news.”
Enni, the editor-in-chief, thinks that if Kevin can really ask Bella to do a cover promotion for “Wuthering Heights”, then they can easily come up with a more ambitious publicity plan. She has reason to believe that the celebrity effect and first-class publicity plan will definitely make Wuthering Heights create better sales.
But the question now is, will Bella sell Kevin’s face? You must know that she is so prosperous in the UK, there are a lot of people looking for her for filming and making announcements.
