When I returned from Duan Qirui's house, it was already eight or nine o'clock in the evening.

After the three of them finished eating, they made tea again and sat in the living room and chatted for a long time. The content of the chat basically revolved around Duan Chery's writing of a book, but at Duan Chery's request, he didn't talk about the specific details anymore, so Li Boyuan told his experience in writing a book one by one.

Since Li Boyuan said his own experience, Zhuang Yan must not be able to run, and he can only talk nonsense about his own writing experience. The "iceberg theory" that he couldn't help but say before also changed tricks in front of them, and as soon as this theory came out, it naturally attracted the attention of the two again.

From this "iceberg theory", the two of them remembered Zhuang Yan's new book "The Old Man and the Sea", and both believed that this book perfectly embodied the "iceberg theory" mentioned by Zhuang Yan.

Zhuang Yan didn't say it in his mouth, but he was thinking in his heart that "The Old Man and the Sea" naturally perfectly embodies this theory, because this book is actually Hemingway's masterpiece that talks about this theory.

……

More than two weeks later, on January 19, 1917, that is, on the 26th day of the lunar month in 1916, there were only three days left before the Chinese New Year.

This day is a relatively important day for Zhuang Yan, and there are three things that are more important to him today.

First, his "The Old Man and the Sea" was translated into the languages of more than a dozen countries such as English, French, Japanese, German, and Spanish, and was sold simultaneously around the world today, when more than 100 countries around the world can buy "The Old Man and the Sea" in their own countries. For this book, foreign book lovers, especially those in the United States, have been looking forward to the stars and the moon for more than a month. They had already made a petition before the new book was released, hoping that Zhuang Yan's book would be released at the same time. However, at that time, the translation was still being planned, and it was impossible to achieve simultaneous release, so it was enough to be stranded.

Second, his "The Little Prince" is finally ready for sale. The influence of this matter is far less than the previous one, after all, the fame of "Fairy Tale Manor" is not the same as the fame of "Zhuang Yan". The simultaneous release of these two books was not intentional, and the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month was specially selected. This is an auspicious day, it is advisable to marry and open a store, and it is a typical auspicious day of the zodiac.

And if we push it back, we will have to rush to after the Chinese New Year's Eve holiday, because tomorrow is the 27th day of the lunar month, which happens to be a big cold, and the people have many taboos about the solar term of the big cold, and all kinds of things are used, some cannot move the earth, some cannot visit relatives and friends, and some cannot make a fire to cook. Anyway, in folklore, the big cold is not a good solar term, and there are many things to avoid. What's more, if the cold of any year happens to meet the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve Chinese New Year's Eve, then there are many taboos who will pass the year on the day before the Chinese New Year's Eve, which may be the twenty-eighth or the twenty-ninth of the year.

Twenty-seven is definitely not on sale, and when it comes to twenty-eight countries, it will be a holiday, because this year's month is not thirty, and the twenty-ninth month of La is Chinese New Year's Eve, and the holiday is one day earlier so that people who go out to work can go home for the New Year. This holiday will be put on the fifteenth day of the first month of the following year.

Therefore, if "The Little Prince" wants to be released, today is the best choice.

The third and last thing has nothing to do with Zhuang Yan's book, but a matter of wheat field TV. After nearly a month of internal testing, Wheat Field TV is finally going to be officially launched and ready for public beta.

Nearly a month of internal testing,Found a lot of vulnerabilities for Wheat Field TV,And many of them were found by Zhuang Yan。

Yang Zhao and they also found two half-popular little singers stationed in Wheat Field TV, and they broadcast live every day, and the live broadcast content is singing. The effect is not bad, at least the response from these people in the closed beta is still very good.

Zhuang Yan basically doesn't have to worry about the first two things, because the book has already been ready, and now it has been transported to major bookstores, all he has to do is wait for the sales data of the book to come down. However, the sales data will not come out until at least tomorrow night, so Zhuang Yan does not have to think about these two things at all today.

And the third one, in fact, in essence, doesn't have to worry about it, because Yang Zhao and they have already worried about it. From website architecture to debugging to internal testing, they did it all the way.

From beginning to end, Zhuang Yan just gave some suggestions that exceeded this world, and the specific implementation relied on Yang Zhao and his friends.

Speaking of Yang Zhao's friends, Zhuang Yan has actually met them yet, but they all already know who their boss is, which can't be hidden, and after tonight, more people will know, because just tonight, Zhuang Yan is going to dedicate his first experience of live broadcasting.

This matter was discussed with Yang Zhao a long time ago, and in order to attract popularity at the beginning, Zhuang Yan had to come to a live broadcast.

Wheat field TV has been brewing about this for more than a month, and a long time ago they began to say in their publicity that there would be a mysterious guest live broadcast on the website on the day of the open beta, but until now netizens don't know who the mysterious guest is.

In fact, if you really want to attract traffic, it must be better to invite those top superstars in the entertainment industry, and their traffic must be more than Zhuang Yan's.

But it's not cheap to hire top superstars, and it can easily be millions or even millions. The investment of wheat field TV is only fifty or sixty million, and it would be a waste to spend millions to invite a star to broadcast live.

If you invite those little stars, to be honest, the effect may not be as good as Zhuang Yan.

So Zhuang Yan thought about it, or decided to start his own business, his own business, should be attentive or use dim sum, these money saved, maybe in the future to add a teaching building to his future school.

The live broadcast was scheduled to start at seven o'clock in the evening, and there were still a full ten hours before seven o'clock, but that didn't mean Zhuang Yan had nothing to do right now.

On the contrary, he has a lot to do, and what he has to do now is to inform netizens of the news that he is about to broadcast live on Wheat Field TV through various channels.

FOF, the website of the literary and artistic circles, these two are Zhuang Yan's biggest information channels today, and book lovers want to know his news through these two places.

So Zhuang Yan edited a piece of text and copied and pasted it on the two websites. Fof is simple,Just send a dynamic,Put the text up,And then put a link to the wheat field TV。

The website of the literary and artistic world is a little more complicated, and Zhuang Yan needs to paste this message on several books under his name and on his homepage, so as to ensure that most books can see the news.

The content of the text is very simple,Probably it means that I will interact live on Wheat Field TV at night,When the time comes, you can interact with book friends online,And there will be a lottery at that time,As for what the prize is,It's up to the book friends to guess for themselves。
