Not only is Nanhai Publishing Company racking its brains to carry out all kinds of publicity, but the major bookstores have not wasted this heat, and have placed "Youth Pi" in the most conspicuous position.

Popular bestsellers are not discounted unless bookstores are selling them at a discount, but price is obviously not the main factor affecting sales.

After all, a book is only more than 20 yuan, and now that inflation has risen, fast food has to be eaten at this price, and readers who really want to buy a book will not care if it can be cheaper by one or two yuan.

Whoever sells his book is good to sell, then he pushes the author's book, bookstores are very realistic, they have to consider the profit factor.

Therefore, on the acre of three-third of the land of the bookstore, the benefits brought by best-selling authors are much more than those of many traditional masters, even if this work has won the Mao Dun Literature Award, it is useless if no readers are willing to buy it.

In the past, only its own Hanlinxuan bookstore set up a column of Zhang Chu's works in the most conspicuous place, but now many bookstores have temporarily emptied a row of bookshelves to place his works.

And some bookstores with short manpower, after the clerks were repeatedly asked where Zhang Chu's works were, where Sou Shen Ji was, and where the Youth Pi was, they simply made a guide mark and used arrows to guide readers who entered the door!

Recently, three books have competed together, two of which have been released for a long time, and Zhang Chu has almost dominated the book market!

"Psychological Crime" won the sales championship for the third week in a row, almost in sync with the movie, and the movie of the same name is also the box office champion for three consecutive weeks, and now the cumulative box office has come to 1.6 billion yuan, and the follow-up can take up to about 100 million, which has exceeded the task.

"Sou Shen Ji" continued to maintain a steady sales momentum, and there was no significant decline, and it still maintained a glimmer of hope of returning to the championship.

And now the news is flying all over the sky, and at the same time, "Life of Pi", which is also hailed as the hope of young Asian writers, has come back with a fierce momentum, and this is the nth time that it has come back from the rankings.

Every time there is all kinds of good news, and now its physical book is on a par with e-book downloads, and it has reached the top spot in the single-day sales list on the second day of the announcement of the Booker Awards!

If it weren't for the fact that the sales were too low in the past few days, the weekly champion would have been snatched away by this old book.

……

Life of Pi was unexpected, and Random House, the largest English-language publishing company, would certainly do everything in its power to tap into its sales potential.

Obviously, the United Kingdom needless to say, the island country with a small population has sold more than one million, which is in line with the sales of the United States, which has a huge population.

The Booker Prize's influence in the UK is undeniable, coupled with their familiarity with Indian culture, so the sales that exploded were very impressive.

Chris, Zhang's original editor, has also stepped up publicity for the film since the nominations were announced in March, and "Life of Pi" has been hanging at the end of the weekly bestseller lists of the New York Times and the Washington Post.

Now two months have passed, and with more and more Internet celebrity recommendations, as well as an increase in book review recommendations, there is even hope of hitting a higher ranking.

The most excited is Random House India, whose goal is to sell millions of copies in India!

According to a report in the American Christian Science Monitor, India is the country that spends the most time on reading, averaging 10.42 hours per week, while Thailand ranks second, China third, and the United States ranks 22nd.

On the streets of India or in street cafes, it is common to see people reading books in their hands.

Although one-third of the rural population and 15 per cent of the urban population are illiterate, this does not affect the love of reading among Indians.

In the book market of the capital, New Delhi, the latest Western bestsellers are often prominently displayed, and these books are popular with India's white-collar workers and elite.

As the most populous English-language publishing market in India, Western bestsellers have always been very popular with the people.

The previously world-selling Harry Potter, The Model Wears Prada series, and Iranian writer Khaled Hosseini's The Kite Runner are many Indians' favourites.

In addition, there is a strong market for local Indian writers, with older people preferring to read works related to religion and younger people preferring works that are similar to success.

Life of Pi is now both rich in Indian culture and internationally renowned, and the story is so exciting that it has naturally attracted many young Indian readers!

In the bestseller list published by the OM bookstore chain, "Life of Pi" has been on the list for many weeks.

When the news of its award spread from the UK to India, many young readers praised it online.

"It's not so much Pie's drifting life as it's a very touching story. The story is written in words, which is very subtle and solid. Zhang Chu's language description is very visual, as if I felt the sea water on my skin. Like all great literature, this one makes you feel all your emotions stir up in the last few minutes of your journey. ”

"I was very surprised by this book, let me tell you why this is an interesting story. ”

"When we were at a book club this week, a friend expressed to me how much he liked it. I was amazed by its ending, and I really appreciated the paradoxical explanation. Even though everyone's preferences are different, it's a great reading experience. ”

"I loved the book, the short chapters, the religion of three religious debaters, and I enjoyed reading it!"

"Slumdog Millionaire used to describe the dark side of Indian society, but I don't think that's all. And right now, "Life of Pi" has made a 360-degree turn in India's image, and this is the India I like!"

However, in the face of the situation of Youth Pi winning the Booker Prize, the Indian media did not praise it.

Vijay Shama, a commentator for the Times of India, wrote a commentary in the newspaper criticizing Zhang Chuhe: "This is a shameful victory for cultural thieves!"

The title directly defines Zhang Chu as a cultural thief, which is really eye-catching.

"Recently, a book describing Indian culture won the Booker Prize in the United Kingdom, becoming the first winning work in Asia, but its author is a Chinese! He stole our Indian culture and stole the honor that originally belonged to us, which is extremely shameful. This is an unforgivable act!"
