Article by Lixiao
Hangwang 2011 quarter earnings released by hangwang, data showed that loss. Earlier, in first quarter results hangwang has made a forecast, the forecast a, like a medal in domestic ebook heavy bomb caused uproar market, the market a singing voice of empty ebook.
Most view, ebook products “, “belongs to the transition of the touch-screen technology popular makes ebook market will further regression” niche market “; and even with a view of e-books will die!
Hangwang President LiuYingJian (micro Po) pointed out that underlie hangwang quarter heavy losses, the main reason is the ebook market competition, and by the tablet computer, and other related product shock. For the above LiuYingJian pessimism, said, HanWang are changing their profit model, new profit model around HanWang bookstores unfolding. “The transformation hangwang mass. past.” soon By gift market impact 2009, 2010 domestic ebook market, the market appears hangwang blowout self-producing do big, become the clear leader in domestic ebook once more than 80% of the market share. HanWang ebook fervent, also causing a massive enterprise gracing the ebook market. In each large computer stores, everywhere ebook sales counter.However, ebook market is, does not hide ebook stir gift market main fact. Pacific computer stores a tablet computer dealer zhang reporter he earlier told nunn is sold e-book, e-book market will ensure every important festivals sales average day, sales not ideal, suggests many ebooks is as gifts send out the consumer demand is not strong initiative purchasing.When published iPad ebook market continues to sell like hot cakes, makes the gift market was huge impact. Especially this year, apple iPad 2 launch of iPad 1 slashed prices, but also to enable the ebook market competitiveness in gifts affect greatly. PanJianFeng is a large public relations company in guangzhou, the director of marketing every year before New Year’s day, Spring Festival, PanJianFeng would give his clients to send some gifts. “The ebook is still relatively popular sent last year, a lot of people are named iPad.”
In consumer electronics consulting an expert ZhangYuan fly opinion, the impact of the iPad is but to ebook gowns. “Ebook was a small niche products, mainly meet the need of serious reading. Smartphones and tablet computer is the main carrier of fast reading. However, two years ago, small stir the ebook is product but just fired became public products. Now but is its skin to be solved.”
Cost HanWang losses to drop is presented According to analysys think-tank the latest figures show that 2011 quarter Chinese tablet PC sales reached 103.67 million. Among them, the apple iPad occupied 78.33% share, basically formed monopoly situation. And from qing branch research center, according to the figures, sales of domestic ebook quarter of 28 million department, less than one third of the tablet computer. In the first quarter of the sales of hangwang 14.98 million for market share for 53.03%, department. This group of data, fully explain the impact of e-books tablet computer.Reporter in each large computer stores also found, the year before, computer stores early biggest scene ebook sales no longer exists, flat is placed in the computer every digital archives mouths influential position of. Many dealers to reporters, some time ago to reflect iPad1 depreciate 1000 yuan, but also triggered a tablet computer sales boom. Ebook once go unattended. This period of time ebook prices has dropped dramatically, sales just has gotten.LiuYingJian says ebook prices down, sales situation got very powerful, shows that the public reading rigid strong demand, the impact of the iPad is just temporary. Restrict ebook market, is one of the key factors for cost control, especially the core piece by yuan electronic paper basically that cost too technology monopoly to drop significantly. Under the impact of the iPad, ebook had to sacrifice profits cuts deal with HanWang quarter, this is also causes losses the reason.
“Although gift market by extrusion, but a mass consumer market is up. IPad in multimedia advantages and cannot completely replace the advantage in reading ebooks, as long as the cost problem solved, ebook market still has large potential space. HanWang LCD screen this year will be adding supplier of two LCD panel is expected to end the cost will have two percent decline.” Hangwang swim quiet emphasize marketing director.
The construction. Life-and-death content Apple to the impact of the ebook lies not only in domestic market, in the United States, in the face of apple’s pressure, amazon had to repeatedly reduces the price of indle K, its latest built-in advertising indle price for new K only 4. Indle price because K a falling, K indle sales and didn’t have much impact.
However, the amazon core competitiveness of the industrial chain of electronic reading, not hardware, but its contents platform. Amazon is doing e-commerce in rags, electronic books have 10 years of accumulation field, and has formed its own core competitive ability. Even K indle down prices further, amazon’s electronic reading industry will also have higher profits. This is the strength of the amazon where no fear is apple.
LiuYingJian when accepting a reporter to interview, said many times in the near future, HanWang ebook prices likely drop too low, even would be free. Hangwang future business model is doa amazon, profit not by terminal, but by the HanWang bookstores this platform. “If HanWang bookstores hangwang promising, there are big future; if bookstores do not to rise, there is no future hangwang it.” “Hangwang will spelled a life to expand their user group, put this book city well, because the future is very important.”
In fact, in the past two years, for forging bookstores content hangwang also has been actively invested. Hangwang listed in HanWang bookstores, make after the first became hangwang no.1 project. It is reported, not only from domestic hangwang’s publisher, press cooperation signing content resources, but also established in Taiwan and Hong Kong, and has introduced Japan bookstores comic book resources.

eBooks question by Aurora150: How do I change the voice to listen to ebooks on my laptop with?
I have some ebooks for school that I downloaded on to my PC laptop. I can listen to the ebooks but i would like to change the voice and the rate of speech. I’m not very computer savvy so i need step by step instructions.
Very funny mr universe. Now can I get a real answer? I need this to study for my college classes.
eBooks best answer:
Answer by Mr Universe
I would instead suggest you find someone with a voice you appreciate and have them read the ebook to you or record it to cassette which you can play in the car.
The Used Car Salesman Does It Again,
Joe Vitale used to make me mad, but now he just makes me laugh. Admittedly a former car salesman, Vitale wouldn’t recognize an original thought if it grabbed him by the throat. Every one of his books is a direct ripoff of another book. This one’s no different. He rewrote and repackaged expert Dan Poynter’s “Writing Nonfiction: Turning Thoughts Into Books.”
There really is good information in “How To Write And Publish . . .” but you have to wade through convoluted grammar, a multitude of typos, and repitition & rhetoric galore to find the few gems hidden here.
And as usual, Vitale provides links to his friends’ websites so everybody in his circle makes a buck. The links get to be as annoying as the grotesque grammar and hilarious typos.
Also, be aware that you’ll only get 125 pages of information in this 279-page book (page 126 is blank). And only half of those 125 pages are dedicated to e-books. Vitale drifts off into POB and other miscellany in the middle of the text.
Pages 127 – 279 are “author interviews.” And guess what? The last (and longest) interview is with Joe Vitale himself. I’m sure glad I didn’t buy a used car from this character.
On the upside, there is a pamphlet-size amount of good information here. I’m not sure this is the best book on the subject because it’s so hard to read (Vitale tells you to use your “instincts” and your “subconscious” to write, although I think he uses his feet), it’s so full of referrals to websites, and is so badly padded, but you’ll be able to dig out the necessary information if you have sharp enough gardening tools.
Some good information, a lot of rather pathetic unintentional laughs, and way too much filler. Check around for easier-to-read resources. It’ll save you time and aggravation.

|Not enough real info,
This book provides very little information in the actual technical aspect of writing an e-book. It does not cover what I wanted such as creating, designing or how to get a cover for your e-book, copyright information, disclaimers, how to make your book into a downloadable file, ect….. It does give information on how to organize and get inspired. In all fairness I have enjoyed Joe (Mr Fire) Vitales previous works but this book was a huge disapointment. It was obvious this book was very quickly written. It was proclaimed in the book that books are written to make money. Unfortunately it seems the only reason this book was written.

|Used Car Salesmanship (part 2),
I purchased this book in April of 2007, right off the printing press. I must say that I am almost complete with my own ebook for sale, but this book by these two authors deserves no credit.
This is a bunch of mumbo-jumbo, and most of the book is advertising for people that have already created other ebooks and want to sell theirs via this book.
One thing disturbing is the fact that the book spends almost no time preparing the would-be ebook author on how to use Adobe Acrobat Professional for creating the ebook. Almost nothing!!!! That was one of my biggest fears. I solved that by buying the Professional Acrobat program and purchasing a video tutorial with it.
When I am done with my book, I’ll be sure to write my own “how to make money selling your own ebook” one day. And when I do, it will put this piece of junk to shame. Sorry to be so negative, but save your money.
Oh, by the way, Mr. Joe “fire” Vitale is one of those new-age gurus featured on “The Secret” movie that gives us psuedo-advice on the Laws of Attraction. Now I know why this book is what it is.
