“Received.”

“Received.”

“Received.”

“Will see tonight.”

The editors at Ding Sheng responded in the group chat.

As for the thought of “did the chief editor make a mistake somewhere”, of course, it dared only spin around within their hearts, nobody dared to voice it out.

After work.

The editors of Ding Sheng walked towards the bookstore in a cloud of confusion, only to be taken aback by the similar banner promotions displayed at the entrances of major bookstores.

The content of the banner was:

“Our store’s ‘King of the Net’ is sold out, supplies will be replenished tomorrow. We apologize for any inconvenience.”

Sold out?

Did the bookstore specifically print out a banner?

At this moment, the editors at Ding Sheng had a vague realization that something was off!

Because making the bookstore specifically print out a banner meant there were many readers who wanted to buy ‘King of the Net’. This treatment was reserved for best-seller books!

So…

This book became popular?

One of Ding Sheng’s editor looked at his colleague in surprise, “Have you ever heard of sports competitive novels becoming best-sellers?”

“No.”

The colleague thought about it for quite some time, eventually shook his head, then decisively spat out four words, “Unprecedented!”

The bookstore is the barometer of sales.

Which book is popular, and which is not, the bookstore is always the most aware!

Given the close relationship between major publishers and bookstores, it’s naturally not difficult to know the sales status of ‘King of the Net’.

Thus, in the following days!

The attention of the entire industry gathered on this book, as well as on the author Chu Kuang!

“Unexpected.”

Even many of the experienced senior editors in the industry exclaimed, “Sports novels can sell this high.”

“Unbelievable.”

“This new author named Chu Kuang has proved with ‘King of the Net’ that as long as it’s well-written, sports novels can also achieve success!”

“Is this a pioneer?”

“There weren’t no one who wrote about sports competition, but no one has ever made it popular. According to industry rules, whoever made a genre popular would be the pioneer in that genre, so this statement is not wrong.”

“Yes.”

“There will probably be quite a few authors who would follow the trend in the future, and even those people will acknowledge Chu Kuang as the pioneer in the genre of sports competition.”

Not just the editor circles.

The discussion about ‘King of the Net’ is also very high in the readers’ circle, and many novel forums have posts about this book:

“Recommend ‘King of the Net’!”

“I’ve read this book too, it’s indeed pretty good.”

“I’ve read many youth fantasy novels for many years, especially in love with the genre of alternate world adventures. After reading ‘King of the Net’, it was the first time in my life that 1 developed interest in such a genre.”

“I thought I was too niche in my taste, didn’t expect there to be so many people who liked ‘King of the Net’!”

“Hahaha, me too, I recommended ‘King of the Net’ to my friend yesterday, he wasn’t keen on reading, said he wasn’t interested in tennis-themed stories, but when 1 forcibly had him read the first chapter, my book became his…”

The book market in Qin Continent is always lively.

If judged by sales volume alone, there are some higher than ‘King of the Net’.

Many popular novelists have a horrifying monthly sales volume for their work.

But what’s terrifying about ‘King of the Net’ is that even though it’s a sports competitive novel and by the conventional perspectives of the industry, it’s extremely niche, it has become as popular as many mainstream novels among readers!

This is no doubt a shocking surprise for the industry.

While the entire industry was shocked, the support and promotion of sports competitive novels by major publishing houses suddenly became unprecedented!

Han Qi is a tennis athlete.

He is a relatively famous professional tennis player in Qin Continent.

He had just finished an internal training session today. When Han Qi was strolling outside, he suddenly received a message from a friend on his phone, “I just found out tennis is so interesting. You have a match tomorrow, right? 1’11 come to watch your match, remember to save me a ticket!”

“Alright, but why do you suddenly say that?”

Han Qi was puzzled, this friend of his had never been interested in tennis before.

He had dragged his friend to watch the tennis match twice after becoming a professional player, but his friend yawned through it. He didn’t expect his friend to propose seeing a professional tennis match today.

“Knew you wouldn’t know!”

The friend said, “I recently read a novel called ‘King of the Net’, this novel is about tennis, it’s really interesting, you should read it when you have time!”

Han Qi sent a row of ellipsis, then said, “Tennis novels are probably written by laymen, such novels can probably only fool readers like you.”

“Not too bad.”

The friend said, “Anyway, 1 feel that the description of tennis inside is quite professional, similar to what you’ve told me before.”

Han Qi shook his head, “Of course, basic tennis knowledge can be easily found online. As long as they dare to write a tennis novel, they at least need to do the basic homework, maybe this author is a tennis enthusiast, there are quite many amateur tennis enthusiasts in Qin Continent.”

“Never mind.”

The friend didn’t want to chat further, “Anyhow, you’ll know when you read the novel, will contact you tomorrow.”

“Alright.”

Han Qi laughed, he as a professional tennis player couldn’t get his friend interested in tennis, but a novel did.

At this time, Han Qi was just passing by a bookstore.

Moved by an impulse, he directly went in to buy the ‘King of the Net’ that his friend mentioned.

As a professional tennis player, he was quite happy to see someone willing to write a tennis-themed novel, who didn’t hope their profession could be more well-received?

He should support such novelists too.

Upon returning to the dorm, Han Qi picked up ‘King of the Net’, randomly flipped to a page.

“Eh?”

After looking at it for two minutes, Han Qi was somewhat surprised to find that the tennis knowledge in this book was quite professional, and the author didn’t fool the lay readers.

However, these knowledge were relatively basic.

So Han Qi casually flipped further back, only to be shocked to find, even when the book touched upon some advanced tennis knowledge, the text description was also very rigorous, with not a single mistake!

“Looks like the author knows quite a lot.”

Ordinary amateur tennis enthusiasts simply do not have such a broad knowledge of tennis!

He gradually developed a bit of interest, and officially opened the first chapter and began reading from the beginning.

During his student days, Han Qi was also someone who liked reading novels.

Only after graduation, he became too busy playing tennis, so he didn’t read that much anymore. Today, he’ll read a novel as relaxation before tomorrow’s match.

Swish.

Pages exuding the fragrance of ink were flipped one by one, Han Qi became more and more engrossed, more and more engrossed…

At this time, it was already dark outside.

The phone suddenly let out a ring, only then did Han Qi jolted back to reality, “Damn, it’s already ten? I have a match tomorrow!”

Damn, I’m torn apart!

Han Qi was thoroughly attracted by ‘King of the Net’, wishing to finish it all at once.

But if he finishes this book, he might not be able to get a good rest tonight, which could affect his performance in tomorrow’s match.

“I’ll finish it after the match!”

He clenched his teeth, Han Qi forcibly suppressed his reluctance, closed the book, then with great determination, turned off the lights and went to sleep!
