Chapter 935 - Sales Soar [Ask for Subscription]

After two days of absence, although Zhang Chu did not miss many classes, some teachers lectured very quickly, copying notes is no better than typing, and a complex word is not as fast as typing on the keyboard twice.

By the time he filled in all the notes, it was already past ten o'clock at night, and his neck and back hurt a little from writing at the desk.

"It's finally done, and it's been two years before I graduate, it's really too long!"

It's only the second semester of my sophomore year, and the second semester of my senior year should be a situation where there are no classes, so it's good to stick to it until that time, and I don't need to think about the situation of graduate school or graduate school entrance examination.

At his point, he doesn't need to go out to work at all, and writing a book is the best job!

Zhang Chu got up and pulled down a banana from the fruit bowl on the table next to him, peeled it and ate it.

Now that there are no bells, matcha is even more elusive, and its favorite thing to do is hide and seek.

It's just that Zhang Chu doesn't have the leisure to look for it now, the yard is so big, it's very difficult to find, it's better to wait for it to come out by itself when it's tired of playing.

He tossed the banana peel into the trash with great precision, and then excitedly celebrated to himself, "It's a pity! If you record this video, it will be a collection of cool and handsome people." ”

Back in front of the desk, he put the book, notebook and printed ppt in his backpack, and then pressed the power button on the main computer, ready to read the news on the Internet.

The computer boots up very quickly, it doesn't get stuck at all when it is used to play games, and the effect of watching videos is also very good.

Originally, Zhang Chu was going to play the game for a while, but after opening Steam, he looked at the list of games and didn't know what to play.

"Forget it, I have to go to school tomorrow, and it's better to play this game on PS4. ”

There are a lot of messages on the Internet, but most of them have nothing to do with him, and only a small part directly or indirectly mentions his name.

[New films in Cannes have been released one after another, and "Farewell My Concubine" continues to be added!]

[Released simultaneously worldwide, this summer's "Ghost Blows the Lantern" will lead the global audience to experience the experience of tomb robbing!]

[The film and television adaptation rights of Zhang Chu's new work "The Lord of the Rings" have aroused the pursuit of Hollywood companies, and Paramount intends to invest hundreds of millions of dollars to create a fantasy classic!]

["Farewell My Concubine" has no momentum, jumping to the top of the odds list of this year's Cannes Film Festival!]

[Hollywood director Dicardo praised "Farewell My Concubine", saying that this is the best film of the last decade!]

[Shocked! "Farewell My Concubine" was actually filmed in Mei Lanfang's former residence!]

["Life of Pi" Cannes announced the first poster, the boy and the tiger appeared together, North America will be released in November, and the country is expected to be synchronized. 】

When Zhang Chu saw the headline of the Juvenile Pi news, he remembered that he had forgotten about this movie!

Although I went to the set to see how the sea was filmed, I haven't seen this poster yet.

Even if the director is the same person, but the actors and production team are different, then the poster must be different.

He clicked on the news with his mouse, and then found that this poster was very flavorful, and even had the ancient Taoist principle of yin and yang balance in it.

A tiger sits half-crouched in the cabin, its mouth wide open to see its sharp teeth, and a bare top standing on the canvas at the bow of the ship, both looking into the distance with blazing eyes!

The whole picture looks harmonious and very worrying, emphasizing the conflict and complementarity of opposites in life, and there is a different kind of balance in beauty.

If the poster reads, "Tiger pounces on boy, boy brave" or "Boat capsizes, boy and tiger struggle in the water," then it would be a complete failure, as it upsets this delicate but enduring balance.

The poster was greatly restored, which made Zhang Chu breathe a sigh of relief.

Although the starring role is an Indian teenager, because the director of the film and the original book are Chinese, the film "Youth Pi" has not received ordinary attention in China.

The film producer is the Hollywood giant Warner Bros., not the Chinese film company Huayi Brothers, their company is not very popular on Weibo, and the only time when it is popular is probably to be scolded by movie fans.

This time, with the release of the poster of "Life of Pi" in Cannes, they also updated the ultra-clear and watermark-free version in real time on social media such as Weibo and Instagram, so that netizens who missed the news can have a look!

"Wow, God restored! It's exactly the same as the inside!"

"This is even better than the picture I imagined when I read the book, Director Li Yu is too awesome!"

"Is this tiger real? I'm a little worried about that little actor, what if something goes wrong during filming?"

"I'm going to buy a ticket to see this poster. This tiger doesn't eat it!"

"Have you ever watched a class representative to give me a brief science popularization plot? If I go now, is it too late?"

Sure enough, it is the Chinese director who understands what he wants to express better. It's a pity that there is still half a year to go, which is really appetizing. ”

"This poster alone won, shouldn't the whole movie be floating on the sea?"

"I haven't seen it, but this poster looks very dramatic, and I want to see the boy and the tiger fighting wits and courage in such a small boat. It's booked, check it out!"

"Originally, I didn't read the introduction saying that it was about an Indian story, but now I regret it and quickly make up the book. ”

"Why don't you just write a Chinese teenager, so that the movie will be perfect! Chinese actors, Chinese directors, Chinese writers original. ”

"If it were Chinese, the faction would probably be caught before it could float at sea." He had to explain why there was a tiger, which is a nationally protected animal!"

Zhang Chu couldn't help laughing when he looked at the comments of netizens, the expectations of these viewers are the best reward for the film.

Some of these issues were also considered when he wrote this book, such as completely sinicizing "Youth School".

But then the conflict of culture and belief in the whole film will disappear, and the overall background will be difficult to integrate into it, and it will not even be explained from the name.

That's why he chose to be consistent with the original book!

The power contained in this story can transcend the limitations of the human race, survive in the face of adversity, about growth, about life.

In addition, the discussion about the ending is once again on Zhihu's hot discussion list, and the ending will make readers question, it will make readers question everything they have seen before, and then tell them a second cruel story that will leave them scratching their ears and baffled.

The most direct reflection of the popularity of movie posters is the amount of discussion, and there are also amazing repercussions in other fields.

Thanks to this poster released worldwide, the original work of "Life of Pi", whether it is Chinese or English, French, German, and Japanese, has ushered in a small peak in sales without exception!

The most prominent in China is the online bookstore.

On the 24-hour sales list of Dangdang books, the first place occupied by Thunder is "The Lord of the Rings", which has just been released not long ago, followed by several other works on promotion and new works of the gods.

But in the tenth place, "Life of Pi" quietly kicked down the other one that became popular through Douyin, leaving a bright red rising ↑ arrow!

Chunjiang Plumbing Duck Prophet, whether a book sells well or not can be seen through the Internet.

If it sells well on the Internet, then the sales of physical bookstores will certainly not be too bad.

Now, after almost two years of completion, "Life of Pi" has returned to the top of the sales list for the first time, and this long-term sales are enough to outperform 99% of the books on the market!

Like Dangdang Books, this old book is also on the 24-hour sales list of Douban Reading, Amazon and other places.

The movie hasn't been released yet, and not even a trailer has been released, so just a poster can achieve such a terrifying effect!

Not only people in the publishing industry, but even Hanlin Culture Media and Zhang Chu himself were surprised.

I didn't expect things to go so smoothly.

It seems that a good poster can bring extraordinary attention!

However, the return of "Youth Pi" is far less than Zhang Chu's other old book, and "Farewell My Concubine" has been sitting in the runner-up position of the 24-hour sales list for two days.

If it weren't for the fact that "The Lord of the Rings" was too demonic, I'm afraid "Farewell My Concubine" would have to enjoy the taste of the championship.

In fact, if "Farewell My Concubine" can win one or two heavyweight awards on the night of the closing ceremony and awards ceremony of this year's Cannes Film Festival, then it will not be difficult to overturn "The Lord of the Rings"!

Of course, we are talking about sales in China, and on a global scale, "Farewell My Concubine" does not have an English version, and it cannot be compared with "The Lord of the Rings" and "Life of Pi".

It's like a diamond that's polished and turns into a sparkling diamond.

Although "The Lord of the Rings" and "Life of Pi" are written by Chinese writers, they tell the story of foreigners and even another world. "Farewell to the Overlord" is a true story about the Chinese, which combines the characters, plot and history, so that the Chinese are very cordial after watching it.

Since the opening of the Cannes Film Festival, the most reported in the entertainment news is about "Farewell My Concubine", who let it win glory for Chinese films on the other side of the world!

All kinds of news came back, and a little sesame big thing could be reported separately.

As long as you watch the news on a regular basis, even if you don't pay attention to entertainment news, the news media will take the initiative to push it to readers.

After being bombarded by these news in turn, even passers-by who didn't care about this subject were brainwashed successfully, and felt that it was indeed a big loss not to read the words of the same name.

This is not an effect that can be achieved by Hanlin Culture Media or Nanhai Publishing Company, but a general trend!

Although there is also news about "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", it is estimated that it is because it is the most popular in the early stage, and it is usually the only one that has high sales and attention, so the news of finding a global distributor in Cannes and the news that the movie has been well received has not helped it make much progress in book sales.

It is very difficult to go from 8 million to 10 million copies, and the other books are from 3 million to 5 million, and the difficulty of the two sides is not consistent.

"Ghost Blows the Lantern" is a fan feedback movie, while "Farewell My Concubine" is a movie feeding back the original work.

In this May, Zhang Chu is the writer with the most attention, not only in China, but also around the world!

His sales have ushered in a period of rapid growth, which can make Nanhai Publishing Company happy.

I thought it would be good if the new book "The Lord of the Rings" would sell well, but I didn't expect that several of his old books would take turns to cheat corpses, and they had the posture of slaughtering the list.

The movie is so strong before it is released, and when it wins the award and is released, I am afraid it will be so strong that the rest of the people will lose their confidence in competition!

Shen Yi is a very ordinary graduate student, he doesn't like to read much, but is a standard movie fan, and has a special love for feature films, whether it is Chinese movies or movies from the rest of the world.

In order to understand those old and niche English-language films, he even improved his English ability to a level that does not require subtitles, and can list the representative works of various filmmakers, various periods, and various styles.

It's just that in recent years, special effects blockbusters, action movies, and comedies have accounted for most of the movies, and there are fewer and fewer feature films with connotation, even the Oscars and the three major European film festivals are not as good as before.

Fortunately, there are countless excellent works in the movie library, even if he doesn't watch the works of the last few years, just watching old movies from the past, he probably won't be able to watch so many in this life.

"Alas, the dramas of the last century are really fantastic, and any work can win an Oscar. There are too few good movies in China!"

Shen Yi posted in the movie forum to chat with netizens with the same hobbies, and he has lost confidence in domestic movies.

"Good movies are few, but not nothing. Lao Shen, do you know the recent "Farewell My Concubine"? It is on the news every day, and almost all of the critics have given good reviews, this should be a good movie. ”

Because Shen Yi's reading volume is too large, all kinds of movies can be said to be true, and many netizens think that he must be a middle-aged talent, and it takes time to watch movies.

"The words of film critics can only be used as a simple reference, and their standards are getting lower and lower, and they are all praised by dozens of media outlets at every turn. "Farewell My Concubine" has decades of historical changes in modern China, same-sex elements, and foreigners' favorite Peking Opera, no matter from which angle it is very appetizing for foreigners. Maybe it's the kind of movie that is made for foreigners, but I'm not looking forward to it anyway. ”

"I think it's very well written, you can watch it, Lao Shen, I heard a veteran film critic say that the movie is even more exciting, I don't know if it's true or not. ”

"Has he seen it? I will definitely go to the cinema to support this kind of art film when the time comes, and now I am hesitant to do it, I am afraid that I will be extremely disappointed to watch the movie after watching it, this has been the case before!"

On top of that, Shen Yi felt that it was too much of a waste of time!

A movie is only three hours long, but thirty hours may not be enough to watch one.

However, the curiosity about the content of the story in his mind still overcame everything, and Shen Yi decided to buy an electronic version, so that he could take time to watch it in the car, on the road, between classes, and during meetings.
