Chapter 281: Windfall

Several people around could hear that Hu Wei was definitely a loyal reader of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", and these people knew that there was this epoch-making and famous work, so they didn't even look at it.

But this famous god of history knows all kinds of plots in it, and even wants to know the content behind, which is too attractive!

Zhang Chu finally matched Hu Wei's name with the book review suspected of spoilers on Weibo, and he responded: "Mr. Hu, the content behind this has to wait for the next one to be revealed, you wait, "Longling Grotto" may be published in the middle of next year, and you will definitely have an eye for it in advance." ”

"It turns out that the name of the next part has already been thought of!" Hu Wei rubbed his hands, "The Longling Grotto sounds very interesting, so let's just add a > This twist is too abrupt to make people a little confused, but Zhang Chu still took out his mobile phone and scanned the QR code in front of him to add Hu Wei to the friend list."

Hu Wei said with satisfaction: "I'll introduce you to the writers here later, they all want to know you, but you don't know." You are very famous in our writers' circle, and you rely on your books and news to be active in various groups. ”

"Uh, I guess it's not a good word, right?"

Zhang Chu shrugged his shoulders, and he didn't have to think about it to know what the rest of the people thought, after all, the interviews of many writers on the Internet and even the Weibo posts were almost revealed.

"It's a mixed bag, I think many people are actually very envious of you, the first copyright is sold at such a high price, a bit of a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers!"

Before Hu Wei's words were finished, the host slowly walked up to the stage, he quickly waved his hand and returned to his position in the front row.

After Hu Wei left, the rest of the people exclaimed in a low voice.

"Xiao Zhang, you are different from us, you are famous!"

"Your "Ghost Blows the Lantern" hasn't been released yet, and now you're writing a new book? ”

"I have seen all the works of Mr. Hu Wei, and he should have a good chance of winning the classification award today. ”

At first, they seemed to be newcomers, but it turned out that this thing would actually know the top gods, although they only knew it, but the works that could make Hu Wei fall in love were very attractive.

"I don't know if your copy of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" will be delivered to the countryside, if it can be delivered by courier, I will buy a copy online. Zeng Yunxiang said curiously.

Zhang Chu actually didn't know very well, but at this moment he asked bluntly: "Teacher Zeng, you leave me the address, and I will send it to you by post when the time comes." ”

In fact, he also wanted to send something to the children of Zeng Yunxiang's rural primary school by the way, using other people's works to make money in this world, not patronizing self-enjoyment, and still helping others within the scope of his ability.

It may not be able to help children get out of poverty and become rich, but buying some new books can help them expand their horizons.

Zeng Yunxiang shook his head, "The main thing is that I have to fly back tomorrow, and it should be sold in our provincial capital city by then." ”

As a best-selling author who has sold millions of books, Zeng Yunxiang still has the money to buy books, although he devotes his main energy to rural education.

Zhang Chu didn't insist, anyway, he could find the address of the rural elementary school with a casual search on the Internet, and he could just send it anonymously when the time came, and he didn't want to be famous.

While they were talking, the speech of the leaders on the stage was finally over, and this annual meeting was also unveiled!

Lin Tao, a famous host who once hosted the Spring Festival Gala, stood on the stage and said clearly: "Thanks to the joint efforts of the General Administration of Press and Publication and the Writers Association, let us meet again at the end of the year. Today, there are not only old friends, but also many new faces, and the power of our Chinese literature is growing every year......"

Zhang Chu was a little hungry and panicked, but he hadn't seen the hotel serve the food, and he had to go to the toilet after drinking too much of this drink.

"Today we will award the most popular writers, works, and new writers, and will also announce the annual income list of writers, thanks to the strong support of the State and Taxation Bureau, and at the same time, there will be awards in various categories one by one, and the guest of honor, Mr. Chen Yilin, will present the Most Popular Children's Book Award!"

Mr. Chen Yilin, who has gray hair, is in good spirits, he is one of the first people to write fairy tales in New China, and his works have accompanied batches of children to grow up, and many writers here have grown up watching his works, so the applause is particularly warm.

Chen Yilin didn't hesitate, he opened the envelope, and then smiled and said: "The work that won the 2018 Most Popular Children's Book Award is "Little Sheep's Travels"!"

Zhang Chu applauded very casually, he could clearly notice that his single mother at the table, Yuan Mei's face was a little lost, after all, her work "Fat Cat Leaving Home" was also the same children's book, but unfortunately she didn't win the award.

In the following time, one award after another was awarded, and the most popular essay collections, film and television literature, fantasy, horror and thriller, history, and martial arts were all awarded one by one.

Hu Wei's work "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty" did not waste his Douban evaluation of 9.1 points and sales of more than 3 million, and successfully won the Most Popular History Award.

And the next thing to be awarded is the most popular detective mystery suspense, which is obviously three genres, but it is arranged in one award, because those elements are common many times, and because this type of work has never been popular, there is no need to divide it into three subcategories.

The most popular fantasy is to include science fiction, fantasy, fantasy, and magic, and the competition is particularly fierce.

Zhang Chu, who was struggling with the lobster, raised his head and found that the award presenter turned out to be someone he knew, Xu Ji, the director who shot classic films such as "The Burning Sun", and also the director of his "Psychological Crime" movie!

Seeing Director Xu standing in front of the microphone, he was slightly excited, he never thought that he might win the award before, but at this time, he was a little lucky.

Could it be that "Psychological Crime" is going to win an award?

Otherwise, how could you cross over to invite a director to the writers' annual meeting?

So Zhang Chu didn't eat the lobster anymore, turned his head to look at the stage, and his thoughts had already flown to the sky.

Xu Ji broke the microphone position down, and he said with a smile: "Detective suspense reasoning is a fairly general concept, and quite a lot of excellent works emerge every year. This year's most popular among readers is "City Lights of Psychological Crime"! ”

Sure enough!

Zhang Chu knew that things would be like this, according to Xu Ji's character, he should be preparing for filming now, if it wasn't important, he wouldn't come to present the award at all.

Now that the original book has won the award, his movies will be released with more attention in the future!

Although "Psychocrime" didn't sell as well as "Sherlock", at least in the eyes of the readers who voted for it, it was a complete original work rather than a fanwork.

If this award is given to a fandom of a foreign work, it is estimated that many people will be disgusted, so it is better to vote for the real Chinese suspense!

In fact, this award is Zhang Chu himself competing with himself, and the rest of the works of the same genre are far inferior to them in terms of word-of-mouth and sales.
