"A few days ago, Mr. Hua Ye sued Beifei for infringement, about the commercial creation of homo works, where do you think the future and hope are?"

The reporter finally asked the question he wanted, and they wished that Zhang Chu would say something surprising, such as spraying Mr. Hua Ye, or expressing deep sympathy and contempt for Beifei, etc.

In this way, at least a wave of topics will be stirred up in the next few days.

However, Zhang Chu had already seen through the careful thinking of the reporters to sow discord, he was unmoved, avoided those small traps, and said: "I think I hope that in the field, jokingly, the creation of the same people will inevitably have something to do with copyright, and it is best to get the official authorization of the original author or company, or to create works such as Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Journey to the West that have entered the public domain, which can greatly avoid trouble." Fan art is based on sharing and sharing, and if you don't have to do it commercially, then it's fine. ”

Just like the two fanfictions he writes now, he will not write anything that touches on copyright, and Sherlock Holmes and Journey to the West are already public resources.

Zhang Chu doesn't want to be a fan-author, he doesn't plan to continue to go deeper on this topic, Hua Ye and Beifei are both big guys, and he can't even be considered to be in the literary world now, where is he qualified to evaluate others!

"Thank you, this is the end of today's interview, please focus on Zhang Chu's work. ”

Zhou Kang, who sang blackface, immediately came over, and the biggest role of the agent was to deal with the media and expand the copyright, so as to liberate Zhang Chu.

Gu Xinxue raised his finger at Zhang Chu and said with a smile: "Today's sale will look quite successful." Of the 500 copies of "Psychological Crime" we prepared on the spot, 400 copies were sold, and the rest of the works were given to the reporters on the scene if they could not be sold. ”

"Where there is a reason that you can't sell, if you put it over there and sell it slowly, it will always sell. ”

Zhang Chu is an iron rooster, there is 5% of it in these 100 books, and it is really heartbreaking to give it to others for nothing.

In the "Scholarly China" large-scale book fair, the only place where you can sell books is in the popular booth, and on this booth, you can see which books sell the most every day.

In the past two days, "Sherlock" has ranked in the top 100 among more than 10,000 books, becoming the only seedling of suspense and reasoning novels, I have to say that it is very charming!

Some people may think that this is only the top100, and it is not the top10, but the popular booth sells all classic best-selling works, and it depends on whether it sells well without looking at the literary connotation.

No matter how good the reputation of a new work is, it is not as good as those that have been sold for decades or centuries, and the classics must occupy more than half of the seats on the book sales list every year.

Of course, the main reason is due to the overwhelming media coverage, which is unattainable by any book, and many readers want to know how awesome the works that dare to go to the United States to fight lawsuits are.

The best-selling results at the book fair are just a microcosm of the popularity of Sherlock!

……

"I don't know if yesterday's sales ranking was updated, and I'm about to refresh the web page. ”

Gu Xinxue jokingly said that the official statistics are all 24 hours of data yesterday, of course, it is impossible to update at zero o'clock, and they will be announced during the day the next day, but this time is sometimes earlier and sometimes later.

Yesterday, Zhang Chu and the three major lawyers sued the Heritage Foundation just after it was exposed, and the overwhelming news can be seen everywhere, everyone knows that this will definitely increase the sales of "Sherlock", and no one can know how much it can increase.

Zhou Kang is also very concerned about the sales of this book, only after the book becomes popular, the road of full copyright adaptation of the novel can be launched, after all, no one will adapt a book that no one cares about.

Compared with the nervousness of the few people around him, Zhang Chu is much calmer, anyway, the prestige value in the system has been rising, right, after rising so much prestige, book sales should also increase a little!

"Updated! Updated!"

Gu Xinxue roared, and several people turned their heads over almost at the same time, and the rankings on the small mobile phone screen were clear.

"Find out where Sherlock is. Zhou Kang urged, he stared at his phone intently, and he didn't see the title of the book.

Zhang Chu was also a little puzzled, where did his book go?

Gu Xinxue said with annoyance: "When I enlarged the picture just now, I started to slide directly from the middle ranking, not after fifty, it must be before fifty! ”

Sure enough, it was a fright, Zhang Chu thought that his ranking would not rise but fall, and he was startled.

The number one entry is The Kite Runner, a foreign book that has dominated the list for weeks, with only a few days being pulled down.

There was no top three, and the top ten were nowhere to be seen, but when Gu Xinxue's fingers continued to slide to the fifteenth place, Zhang Chu and the three of them held their breath at the same time!

Isn't this what Sherlock is?

On August 31, 25,000 copies of the physical book alone were sold!

It is less than 1,000 copies short of "My Youth Is Not Confused" in tenth place!

This terrifying sales result made Gu Xin Xuele blossom, "I knew it would be like this, fifteen places! It seems that no suspense mystery novel has reached this rank since the beginning of the operation of this sales list!"

"I seem to remember that yesterday's news exposure may not have spread, and I think today's sales may be even higher. ”

The smile on Zhou Kang's face couldn't be hidden, and the most powerful rookie writer this year probably didn't run away.

"It's a pity that your book has been searched for a lot on the Internet, but there is no English version. If there is an English version, how much more sales will be required for the global media to report on it?"

Gu Xinxue shook his head, and said with a little regret, wasting this opportunity in vain.

Zhang Chu was already satisfied, he said with a smile: "People's hearts are not enough, we haven't even sold a bestseller in China, so we want to go abroad." Gu Editor, don't kill me. ”

"Yes. Today's "Sherlock" looks like it has a chance to hit the top ten, but "Psychological Crime" is also on sale today, shouldn't it be diverted?"

Zhou Kang said worriedly, he wanted "Sherlock" to enter the top ten on the sales list, and he wanted "Psychological Crime" to sell better, so that film and television companies could come to his door.

At the beginning, no one expected that "Detective Sherlock" would also hit the top ten with a fraudulent corpse, but now Zhang Chu's own new book also rushed to the list, whether it is cannibalism or complementing each other, everything will have to wait until tomorrow to find out.

Who made the market for suspense and reasoning works so big, after "Sherlock" occupied a part, only a small part was left for "Psychological Crime".

In their eyes, "Psychological Crime" has become an unfortunate cannon fodder, but is this really the case?
