Chapter 1241: Friends of Women!
The United States is a country of books, and in the future, among the countries that like to read paper books the most, the United States will be among the top few.
Although Israel reads the most books per capita a year, Israel's population is too small to support the huge book publishing market.
The United States has a population of more than 300 million or 400 million, which is almost 30 or 40 percent of the total population of Europe, and the economy is highly developed, so they can support many genuine markets on their own.
For example, in the global record market, which has shrunk sharply, American singers can live comfortably with the American market, including lyricists and composers, so American music will be thriving and new stars will emerge until 2020.
Needless to say, there are more than 30,000 screens in China and a population of 1.5 billion, which still can't be compared with the movie box office in the United States, which is a huge gap.
Back to books.
Americans are accustomed to reading the New York Times, Los Angeles Daily News, and other newspapers every morning, and they are also accustomed to flipping through a book in their spare time.
Especially in this era when there are no mobile phones, there are no smartphones to connect the world, and all the news and information is delivered to you, you have to use some other ways to understand the world.
Reading books is a great way to do this.
In the United States, the sales of good books are very high, and the royalties are very high, so even the kind of books that sell only tens of thousands of copies can feed a writer.
Many talented people, therefore, will not be buried, and the books they write usually make it to the best-selling list, and one hit is twenty or thirty years.
This is the case with Mr. Jun, for example.
In the late 70s and the first two or three years of the 80s, the most dazzling new star in the American book industry was basically Mr. Jun, that is, Yin Jun.
This genius boy from Xiangjiang not only writes the script first-class, but also writes the same.
"He has an amazing mind and pen, and he is very skillful in switching between various subjects, and he is even more amazing than Stephen King, and he even reminds people of Tolkien. Reading his book, I felt that he should be an American, or even an Englishman, and not from the East. βSchulman, President of the American Book Association.
To date, each book published by Yin Jun has sold more than 5 million copies.
One of the best-selling books is "Jurassic Park", which is a global hit, and has already sold more than 70 million copies worldwide, setting a record for the highest sales in the past decade.
However, in the United States, the highest-selling country was replaced by "Forrest Gump", which sold more than 10 million copies in the United States alone.
But the records of both books are now being replaced by a new one.
It is said to be a new book, but it is actually a book in the magic series - "A Song of Ice and Fire".
Although it has only released two films now, one is "Game of Thrones" and the other is "Clash of Kings", according to the current trend, it will sell hundreds of millions of copies in the future, which is an easy thing.
With the current plot and layout, everyone who reads the book is fascinated and can't wait to finish it for the rest of their lives.
And some book reviewers are also saying that as long as Yin Jun doesn't collapse halfway, then if "A Song of Ice and Fire" is finished, it will definitely be a classic that catches up with "The Lord of the Rings", or even more classic than "The Lord of the Rings".
Now the second part of "Clash of Kings" has been released worldwide, and the sales volume can be described as overwhelming, selling 12 million copies in less than a month, breaking Yin Jun's previous record of breaking 10 million copies of the fastest book published.
In the future, it will exceed 50 million copies, and there will be no problem at all.
Because of the exclusive publishing rights in North America, Henry Publishing made a lot of money.
With the trump card of Yin Jun, they have completed the magnificent transformation from an obscure small publishing house to the largest publishing house on the West Coast - this is a complete miracle!
Nowadays, many rising stars of writing are willing to hand over their books to Henry Press, and this is the benefit of fame.
But Kant-Henry was not satisfied.
Yin Jun is only 20 years old this year, and there are at least 30 years of writing in his golden period, if he can closely follow Yin Jun's steps and firmly tie him to Henry Press, then Henry Publishing House will become the first publishing house in the United States, and it is not wishful thinking!
And Henry knows that Yin Jun is a person who misses his old love very much, so he recently asked Yin Jun to write another one under the pretext of "women making trouble".
Although Yin Jun said in advance that he was just writing a novella, and the word count was one or two hundred thousand, this did not prevent Henry from being excited.
It is no exaggeration to say that now Yin Jun publishes a book, even if it is just a word written and printed, at least 5 million sales.
Kant Henry was not afraid that Yin Jun's writing would not look good, because he also knew that Yin Jun was absolutely responsible for what he wrote, and it was impossible to fool people with things below the level.
So, he was easier to operate.
After setting the deadline for Yin Jun's preparation, Kant Henry began to advertise in major bookstores and newspapers and magazines.
"A book Jun dedicates to all women. β
"It's a book that touches your heart. β
"If a woman doesn't read Jun's book written specifically for you, your life is in vain. β
"It is said that Jun has no respect for women, but only after reading this book do you know how delicate and affectionate he is. β
"Tears flowed down, it turned out that there was still such a thing!"
ββ¦β¦β
Well, Kant Henry's chaotic sensationalism for a while directly aroused the interest of female book fans all over the world.
Many women who didn't care much about Yin Junshu before also began to gear up, wanting to see what book Yin Jun had written, and they dared to brag like this.
They come more with the attitude of finding faults.
But when Yin Jun delivered the manuscript, Kant Henry printed 10 million copies for the first time, and sent them to the world one after another.
It is no exaggeration to say that "The Dream of the Covered Bridge" is a poison for women, containing the sweetest and most delicious poison.
The story in it and the concept of love it preach are all a betrayal of mainstream society.
Have you ever seen such a red fruit promoting extramarital love and stealing?
And the writing is so beautiful, so moving, so difficult to let go, so sad and tearful.
However, this "Dream of the Covered Bridge" was written, and it was written delicately and boldly.
So in the previous life, it had a sensational name and many fans.
What's even more different is that the historical "Dream of the Covered Bridge" was written in the 90s, while Yin Jun's version is now published in 1982.
In the early 80s, not long after the hippie era in the United States in the 70s, the first half of the freedom and looseness shown in it were completely in line with the spirit of that era.
The combination of various conditions caused "The Dream of the Covered Bridge" to become popular directly, without the slightest instigation, and exploded directly!
In just three days, the sales of "Dream of the Covered Bridge" in the United States exceeded 2 million copies, and "A Clash of Kings", which had been on the New York Times bestseller list for a month, was jaw-dropping!
You know, "Clash of Kings" is a long masterpiece, and there is a "Game of Thrones" foundation in front of it, so it was lost to a love book that is less than 200,000 words!?
But that's how exaggerated the truth is!
Not only in North America, but also in Europe and South America, "Dream of the Covered Bridge" has also conquered the city all the way, and no country has lost its sales championship trophy.
The key is that "The Dream of the Covered Bridge" has aroused the enthusiasm of almost all women, making them madly obsessed with the book "The Dream of the Covered Bridge" and obsessed with the story.
"I was wrong, I shouldn't have followed the heckling, the story Mr. Jun wrote was so charming that I was completely absorbed in it and didn't say a word for three days. β
"Oh my God, what kind of man with a story can write such a beautiful love? You said that Mr. Jun is only 20 years old, is it possible?"
"If possible, I hope to go to Xiangjiang to meet Mr. Jun and discuss this story with him, as long as I can quietly listen to the story behind this story, I will be satisfied for the rest of my life. β
"Oh, I'm going to go to court! You know what? I contacted my ex-boyfriend as soon as I read the book...... Fuck the duty and the family, I want love!"
"There is nothing more suitable for us women to read than this story!Mr. Jun, I love you and I am willing to give everything for you!!"
"Whoever dares to say bad things about Mr. Jun in front of me again, I will beat him to death! Do you know how many times I cried after reading this book? The key is that my mother also cried!!"
ββ¦β¦β
Many men have the same emotion when they see it.
They also remembered the lover they had left, and thought of her who had a fate but no share.
As a famous book reviewer once said, "As long as you have love in your heart, and that she (him), you will love this story." It's only about love, and it only blooms for love!"
It's not that no one criticized "The Dream of the Covered Bridge" for not being decent enough, but in the frenzy of such powerful women uniting to praise Yin Jun, it disappeared without any waves.
Women are crazy and can do anything.
For example, Yin Jun, who is far away in Xiangjiang, has received tens of thousands of letters from readers all over the world in just ten days, most of which are female readers.
The people at the post office were almost exhausted at the door of the Qilin Culture.
While the boy has gained so many book fans, of course, he has also gained another nickname.
Friends of Women.
