“I’m offering a high price for a ticket. If it’s not double, I’ll offer three times the price. I just want one ticket to Fan Ge’s concert.”

"I feel like crying. I didn't manage to get one, and then the awful internet suddenly stopped working."

"Wait for me, Brother Fan. My seat is in the last row, but I bought binoculars."

The comments under the topic of Xu Fan's concert tickets selling out in three minutes are countless.

The online discussions were either about showing off how they managed to snag tickets or about buying tickets at high prices so they could go see the movie themselves.

But at this point, finding a ticket is really not a realistic possibility.

This night was destined to be a sleepless one for the vast majority of fans.

A while has passed since the news of Xu Fan's concert was first announced.

Everyone was waiting for tickets to go on sale.

The sale sold out in three minutes, naturally bringing joy to some and sorrow to others; some laughed heartily, while others were filled with regret.

But apart from the fans on Weibo, most of the suspense readers on Qidian Chinese Network also had a sleepless night.

Countless netizens, including editor Xiao Gu, have been captivated by a suspense novel called "Ghost Blows Out the Light" and have been unable to sleep at night.

Some people read while grumbling and cursing, while others are so engrossed in their books that they can't tear themselves away.

It started in a small circle and gradually became popular across the entire site.

Because of Xiao Gu's recommendation, countless readers flocked to it.

The rich story content and beautiful writing have captivated countless readers, drawing them into the book and making it impossible for them to tear themselves away.

The plot is full of twists and turns. As the first volume, "The Ancient City of Jingjue" is rich in content and knowledge. While countless readers enjoy reading it, they are also involuntarily drawn into a certain fear.

The next day, Xu Fan boarded a plane bound for Chang'an.

Xiao Gu, an editor at Qidian.com, and her colleague Xiao Mo arrived at the company with dark circles under their eyes.

I was completely stunned after seeing the data for "Ghost Blows Out the Light" overnight.

Xiao Mo asked in shock, "What exactly happened last night?"

Xiao Gu lowered his head silently and said, "This is unbelievable."

Xiao Mo tensed up in fright and said, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm still scared."

Xiao Gu lowered his head and pondered for a while before saying, "I'll go talk to the editor-in-chief. Maybe this book can be promoted extensively across all channels."

Xiao Mo replied confidently, "There's definitely no problem."

Boom boom boom!

Xiao Gu knocked on the editor-in-chief's door, and after hearing a "come in," she pushed the door open and went inside.

Looking at the editor-in-chief, whose face was tired and who had dark circles under his eyes, Xiao Gu was puzzled and couldn't help but ask, "Editor-in-chief, did you not get enough rest yesterday?"

The editor-in-chief shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I just slept a little late. What did you want to see me about?"

Xiao Gu said "Oh" and then said, "Yesterday, an author submitted a work. The content, writing style, and plot were all top-notch. After making a simple recommendation last night, the effect exceeded my expectations, so I wanted to apply for full-channel support."

The editor-in-chief frowned and said, "Applying for full-channel distribution for a new book? Send me the data, I'll take a look and then decide."

Xiao Gu nodded and prepared to leave, but just then, the editor-in-chief suddenly asked, "By the way, what's the name of that book you mentioned?"

"Ghost Blows Out the Light".

Get the perfect music system at the start

===Chapter 265 Audio Adaptation===

The editor-in-chief of Qidian had red eyes and very noticeable dark circles.

This is all thanks to a book I stumbled upon last night.

That book is the "Ghost Blows Out the Light" that Xiao Gu mentioned.

As usual, he went home and, before cuddling his wife to sleep, casually glanced at the recommendations on the Qidian Reading App.

At first glance, he was drawn to the three words "Ghost Blows Out the Light" and the slightly terrifying cover.

But at the time, he just wanted to browse around and was curious about why the book had suddenly been featured on the recommendation list.

The editors under my supervision are all very dedicated. Unless it's a hit article, they usually wouldn't suddenly put it on the recommendation list like this.

Then he was shocked by the 180,000-word update in two days.

My first thought was that this person must be a seasoned writer who only published his work after he had almost finished writing it.

But after reading the introduction and the first three chapters, he realized he was completely wrong.

As a result, he couldn't sleep at all last night, as could his wife.

So much so that when he got up in the morning, his wife kicked him and yelled, "Get your author to write two more chapters!"

Out of consideration for his pride, he didn't say much today, but at this moment, Xiao Gu actually wanted to put it on full-channel recommendation.

After only a slight hesitation, he said, "If it's this book, then let's do it this way. Open up all channels. Yeah, including audiobooks."

Audiobooks is one of the audiobook channels on Qidian's omnichannel platform.

Generally, only truly top-tier authors have the opportunity to enjoy audiobook streaming services.

Moreover, only phenomenal novels written by top authors are adapted into movies and TV shows.

Because you first need to have a certain readership, the subsequent promotion will be much more effective.

So Xiao Gu really didn't expect the editor-in-chief to make this decision.

He asked doubtfully, "Can this book really be made available for audiobook streaming ahead of schedule?"

The editor-in-chief nodded slightly and said, "This book is different from other books. It is a suspenseful tomb raiding book with thrilling and suspenseful content. I believe that if the audiobook channel is opened, the effect may be even better."

Xiao Gu nodded and said, "Then I'll contact the author right away."

The editor-in-chief nodded and said, "Okay, oh, by the way, let's talk to the author about the release time of the chapter, or whether it can be sent over in advance so we can do a review."

Xiao Gu glanced at the editor-in-chief with suspicion, guessing that the editor-in-chief might have also read the book, and then suddenly realized, "It's already been confirmed. It will be updated promptly at midnight every night. His attitude is very assertive."

The editor-in-chief said "Oh" and waved his hand.

Xiao Gu walked out of the editor-in-chief's office and immediately dialed Xu Fan's number.

Xu Fan was at the airport, about to check in, when his phone rang. Looking at the unfamiliar yet familiar number, he answered and asked, "Hello?"

"Mr. Dragon, walking among mortals, that is me."

Upon hearing the voice from the other end, Xu Fan realized it was his editor, Xiao Gu, and said with a smile, "You can just call me Mr. Xu."

"Okay, Mr. Xu, it's like this, your book 'Ghost Blows Out the Light' has indeed had a very good effect after last night's recommendation."

After some discussion, the editorial team is preparing to give you a major boost in promotion.

When Xiao Gu's voice came through, Xu Fan couldn't help but smile and said, "Thank you."

Xiao Gu continued, "We're going to help you open up the audiobook channel and adapt the audio files."

Upon hearing this, Xu Fan couldn't help but feel excited; this was exactly what he had been waiting for.

To be honest, the purpose of publishing my own novel is actually to adapt it into an audiobook.

Whether a novel is popular or not has little to do with me; audiobooks are what I'm really looking for.

Of course, his purpose in publishing the online novel first was to accumulate a certain fan base. Now it seems that the editors at Qidian.com have a relatively high opinion of "Ghost Blows Out the Light".

With that in mind, Xu Fan said directly, "Adapting the novel into an audiobook is no problem, but I want to choose the music for the audio content myself."

Upon hearing Xu Fan's voice, Xiao Gu was slightly taken aback, then her face showed excitement.

So he asked somewhat cautiously, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Xu Fan? Just singing?"

"Sorry, I need to register now. I'll contact you later. Please remember that I need to provide all the music for the audio editing myself."

Xu Fan ignored Xiao Gu's question, hung up the phone after saying that, and stepped into the ticket gate.

The journey from Zhonghai to Chang'an City takes less than three hours.

When Xu Fan landed in Chang'an, he walked out of the airport alone, wearing sunglasses.

He didn't call Zhao Feiyang; the more people there were, the bigger the commotion, which would actually hinder the trip.

Even if you're alone, as long as you take proper precautions, not everyone will necessarily recognize you.

Although Xu Fan was certain that he was really popular, he didn't think he would be recognized wherever he went.

Moreover, he was also wearing sunglasses.

He wasn't dressed very fashionably; he was wearing simple casual clothes that didn't even cost much.

So, putting aside Xu Fan's voice, he wasn't actually that conspicuous in the crowd.

If you don't pay special attention to him, he will appear very monotonous, ordinary, and unremarkable in a crowd.

Even if you're wearing sunglasses, you'd be the kind of person who's impossible to spot in a crowd.

As Xu Fan walked out of the airport, he saw the simple and honest people of northern Shaanxi. Each of them had a kind smile on their face and was busy with their own things.

Xu Fan's appearance did not attract much attention.

He wasn't in a hurry to go to the theater, since there were still two days until the concert.

He first went to a drum tower, took a look at the thick city walls, and glanced at the historical traces.

It wasn't until after 5 p.m. that Xu Fan finally got through to the fat man on the phone.

To be precise, it was just as I was dialing the number that the fat guy called me.

"Hey Lao Xu, where are you? I haven't heard from you at all. I wanted to pick you up at the airport!"

"I'm learning the Chang'an dialect from an old lady on the streets of Chang'an."

"I give up. Tell me, where are you? I'll come pick you up."

“Okay, I’m on the street east of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. Come here.”

Xu Fan hung up the phone and looked at an elderly woman standing next to him, saying, "Auntie, is this what I meant?"

The woman nodded and said, "Yes, we get along."

Xu Fan asked curiously, "The city is called Contemplation, right?"
