Chapter 670: Horror Reader Ratio
The history of ancient Chinese literature is a compulsory course for their majors, and Zhang Chu and their majors have to take this course in every grade, and they are divided into four different semesters to study.
It is an important part of Chinese civilization, and there have been generations of outstanding writers in its long history, with a variety of themes, genres, styles and genres, which is an invaluable cultural heritage!
At present, the professor is talking about the literature of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties periods, from Jian'an to the Western Jin Dynasty, and he also gave a lecture to Tao Yuanming.
Tao Yuanming's works have more than 120 existing poems, six prose essays, and three dictionaries. Poetry is where his achievements are most prominent, but when we interpret the content of his poems, we must first look at the characters, social backgrounds, ......"
The old professor's old Yanjing accent sounded interesting, and the students in the class listened attentively, picking up a pen from time to time to quickly record what they thought was important.
It is impossible for any writer to write without the background of the times, and the same is true for writing poetry and lyrics.
But Zhang Chu was slightly distracted at this time, he was thinking about the background of the story of "Norwegian Wood", how can he perfectly present this story in combination with the current social background?
Now young people are also lonely, and the number of empty nesters in major cities has exceeded 40 million, which is just in line with the loneliness, loneliness and a touch of helplessness inside.
The economy is booming, but the loneliness of young people in the city is becoming more and more serious, and when everyone is accustomed to communicating on the Internet, when it is difficult for everyone to speak in reality, this gap is even more profound.
After writing about so many outstanding characters, now Zhang Chu intends to set his eyes on ordinary and ordinary young people, this is the silent majority!
Zhang Chu in the previous life is also one of them, and he has a deep understanding of that feeling of loneliness, so he can clearly understand the mood of the protagonist inside.
Loneliness is common in modern society, and it is still rampant, eroding people's hearts and becoming a common disease in modern society.
With the rapid growth of the economy and the rise of consumer culture, China is now a society with an imbalance between material and spirituality, with an overflow of material and a lack of faith.
The biggest common problem in such a society is no ideals, no pursuits, a sense of emptiness, and a sense of loneliness!
Traditional values have collapsed, but new values have not yet been established, and they have lost their spiritual sustenance.
In "Norwegian Wood", whether it is the protagonist Watanabe or Naoko, or the smug Nagasawa on the surface, they are bearing a huge burden in their hearts, which makes them breathless.
"Maybe this book will make domestic readers feel very appropriate and immersive!"
Zhang Chu thought silently in his mind, the means of communication are becoming more and more developed, but the barrier between emotions is getting bigger and bigger.
Under the bustling traffic, the dilemma of personal spirit is clear at a glance.
He wants to write this pure love in a realistic way, perhaps this is more realistic.
Perhaps Haruki Murakami didn't have this kind of utilitarian mind when he wrote "Norwegian Wood", Zhang Chu wrote with a certain purpose, so he was not a master.
He's just a pretentious ordinary person!
There are indeed young people who commit suicide in domestic reality, but it is not as exaggerated as Haruki Murakami's writing, and one after another young people commit suicide, which can only be said that the reality of the two countries is different, after all, the tradition of suicide has always been very strong.
As soon as this god left, it was most of the class, and when the class bell rang, Zhang Chu found that Yang Ling next to him had already turned the textbook to the next few pages, and the textbook in front of him was still empty!
Classes have really become a challenge for him, and with so much stuff in his head, it's easy to run over and think about the rest.
Learning is important, but he's not a student in an ivory tower anymore.
……
Carrying only half of the backpack, Zhang Chu turned on the music on his mobile phone, put on the headphones and headed towards the Hanlinxuan bookstore.
This morning's class is over, and there will be another class until 3 o'clock in the afternoon, so I just go to the bookstore to read a book or take a break.
After half a semester of hard work, Hanlinxuan Bookstore has barely taken root on the campus of Yan University, and its daily sales volume is not low.
If it continues to develop according to this momentum, next year's rent and labor costs can be earned back by itself, and there is no need for Zhang Chu to pay for it!
This is obviously a huge step forward for bookstores.
"Why do you look so lonely today?"
Zhang Chu took a random look inside the bookstore, and found that there were only one or two people inside.
The store manager, Zhong Liangping, was about to go to the cafeteria to eat, but when he saw the boss coming, he stopped, and he explained: "I actually sold it for a few hundred yuan in the morning, and now everyone is in a hurry to eat." After a while, the number of customers will increase. ”
He hadn't been to the bookstore for some days, and Zhang Chu seriously calculated: "How much is the bookstore's daily turnover now?"
"Recently, the sales momentum of our bookstore has been very good, physical books can sell for about 3,000 yuan a day, and your peripheral products can occasionally sell a few hundred, but they are not fixed. ”
Many bookstores don't even have a daily sales of 500, and Hanlinxuan's sales of almost 100,000 a month are not much, and they can only break even.
The main reason is that the number of teachers and students on campus is limited, unlike those places outside that have a high flow of customers and strong mobility, and new customers often appear.
Fortunately, the campus of Yan University is so famous, and occasionally the bookstore can meet some people who come to Yan University for tourism and visit, and these people always have to buy something after taking pictures at Yan University.
They seem to think that the books here at Yan University are a little talented, and they would rather buy them in the campus bookstore than go outside the school, so these people also contribute a lot of sales!
Unlike other bookstores, the proportion of inspirational and successful books in the book sales type here is very low, and it is clear that this is the type that accounts for the majority in the outside world.
Maybe it's because the students of Yan University are more or less successful.
, literary works, economics, philosophy, natural sciences, and supplementary reading materials are not low sales.
"In the past month, we have sold almost 2,500 copies of the physical book "The Da Vinci Code", do you think this digital horror is terrifying?"
The entire campus of Yan University has only 20,000 people, and as a result, Zhang Chu's "Da Vinci Code" has sold nearly one-eighth, which is really scary!
In addition, those who did not come to buy books also included those who bought e-books online, bought physical books on shopping websites, or bought books in other bookstores and borrowed books from others.
After doing so, half of the students in Yan University have more or less watched "The Da Vinci Code"!
The power of books is not like this, and it may not reach such a level in other universities, mainly because the author and the actor are both Yan University, so they can have such a huge influence in this school!
