[Notice of the Catholic Church in China on the Boycott of the Da Vinci Code]

"The contents of The Da Vinci Code are pure fiction, and some of its contents violate and distort Catholic doctrine and history, causing great confusion and misleading to readers from all walks of life and the broad masses of religious believers, causing great harm to Christian faith, and has been strongly criticized and condemned by all sectors of society, various religious groups, and the Catholic Church.

The Bible is God's gift to the Church and to all people, the fundamental foundation and code of conduct of our faith.

We call on the Catholic faithful to read and understand the Bible carefully, and resolutely resist the "Da Vinci Code"!

Don't read, don't listen, don't talk about the content involved in this book, be vigilant, and distinguish between right and wrong.

Unswervingly follow Jesus, strive to do good and avoid evil, and make our contribution to building socialist harmony!"

After Zhang Chu read the printed notice, he raised his head and said a little blankly: "What is this for me to do?"

"Sure enough, it's easy to have trouble when it comes to religion, and now Catholicism has begun to boycott this, which is not a good thing!" Zhou Kang looked worried, worried too much.

There are tens of millions of Catholic people in China, and if these people collectively start to resist, it will not be a simple matter if it works.

This is probably in response to the Vatican's call.

"Actually, I think it's helping us to publicize, haven't you noticed that since the news of the Vatican's boycott came out, the media around the world have helped us publicize it?

Yesterday, "The Da Vinci Code" was once again in the news reports, and it seems a bit fantastical that one of them can provoke a boycott from the Catholic Church.

Originally, many people suspected that the content was false, but after seeing the Vatican's reaction, they felt that it was a thief!

Maybe what is about Catholicism is true, so the church is afraid of being disseminated, and it must spread the truth!

Selling one more book is tantamount to passing on the truth of Catholicism to more people, just like those forwarded messages on the Internet.

The more you delete the post, the easier it is to make people feel that there is something greasy in it, and the more you have to forward it so that more people can see it.

The Vatican's behavior has aroused the rebellious psychology of many people, and the more they resist, the more they are not allowed to read it, the more they want to know what is written in it, does "The Da Vinci Code" make the Holy See tremble?

What could be better than that?

Just like the original "The Passion of the Christ" movie, it was also boycotted by the Vatican, but after being boycotted, the box office rose instead of falling, becoming the box office record in R-rated movies, and it was maintained until the hangover and Deadpool broke it!

Now The Da Vinci Code is like a text version of The Passion of the Christ, and the two are following the same trajectory of fate.

Zhou Kang looked at the statistics next to him, after the news of the Vatican came out, the global sales rose against the trend and walked out of a beautiful curve.

"Uncle Zhou, don't worry, the Vatican doesn't have the right to seal this book, and the religious forces in our country are weaker, so there won't be much of a problem!"

Zhang Chu added: "Maybe you can discuss with Nanhai Publishing Company how to spread this news, this is excellent marketing material." But you have to get a certain degree of control and don't make it too scary. ”

Concern is chaos, originally Zhou Kang must have been able to see the problem, but he was too worried about the publication and distribution of "The Da Vinci Code", so he panicked.

"I still want you to comfort me, my agent is too incompetent. Since it's a good thing, then I won't bother you to play the game. ”

At this time, Zhang Chucai turned his head and looked at the monitor, just now when he went to open the door, he let the game character stay in the grass, and now the poison gas has come out!

I want to waste the medical kit again, this is the material that I finally cleaned up before, Zhang Chu hurriedly picked up the mouse and manipulated it to run the poison as soon as possible.

Not having a means of transportation is a troublesome thing, and even the Akina mountain bike god can't get out of it.

Finally got to the safety zone, and just when he wanted to be a Voldemort, he was shot in the head by someone else!

"This game won't work, I'll do it again later. ”

Zhang Chu was already addicted to the game at this time, and if he didn't eat chicken, he would never give up!

……

In New York, USA, Blair looked at the aggregated data and smirked directly.

The Da Vinci Code shipped 3.5 million copies this week, and the exact sales are estimated to be much less than that.

Obviously, 3.5 million are physical books, and a series of paid downloads of e-books such as Amazon Kindle are not counted!

"Tomorrow's bestseller lists will be updated, and this time "The Da Vinci Code" should be at the top of several lists, hoping to be the first in all of them. ”

Now there is only one who has a chance to defeat Zhang Chu, Ken Fryde's reprint of "The Fall of the Giant", and the rest of the works are not very threatening!

For the top best-selling authors, as long as they don't come across demonic works of the same level, then it is extremely easy for their classic works to win the top spot in the sales charts.

However, "The Fall of the Giants" was supposed to be empty this time, and there were no super best-selling authors to release new books, so the publisher chose this time period.

Unexpectedly, a tiger was killed halfway, and "The Da Vinci Code" was born with an extremely amazing appearance, not only in the whole Frankfurt book exhibition, but also in the pre-sale and sales are particularly gratifying.

Now the Vatican's boycott is completely counterproductive, and the Christians who originally thought that "The Da Vinci Code" was just ordinary suspense, they didn't even think to see this type of work!

However, when the Vatican archbishop called on him to do so, everyone found that they had not read the book at all, so hundreds of millions of Christians knew that there was such a book that would dislike the church.

What is the horror of this book?

The Romans didn't give a specific answer, so the followers had to find it themselves.

Reading a book review is obviously the quickest way to do it, and at the same time not contradict the archbishop's call!

So all the book reviews and short reviews after buying the book were read by these people many times, but they couldn't see the reason except for the praise, only that they might be blaspheming Jesus inside.

Some people are indifferent to it, others are curious.

Driven by curiosity, more and more believers quietly walked into bookstores, picked up a copy of "The Da Vinci Code", paid for it and hid it in their bags, for fear of being discovered by others, as if it were some shady work.

Even in a Catholic family, husbands, wives, sons, and daughters all hid and bought books and read them quietly without anyone else knowing!
