"By the way, in the past month, more than 3 million copies of The Da Vinci Code have been sold worldwide through our company in English! Probably because the competition has weakened, it has risen to the top of the New York Times bestseller list, which should be the 12th week winner. ”

"Sounds pretty good, how many weeks has it been on the market?" Zhang Chu asked curiously.

It was the first time he had won the championship in this ranking before, and he was still a little excited.

However, now that so much time has passed, it has long been an ancient well without waves, and the heart is like a mirror, without a little wave.

Blair introduced: "18 weeks. Sounds incredible, right?"

It has been on the market for 18 weeks, and 12 weeks have been champions.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the whole of America is shrouded in the horror of the Da Vinci code!

"How long will it win the championship?"

"We don't see any decline at the moment, and it's time for word of mouth to ferment. The New York Times, The New Yorker, The Washington Post, and other newspapers and magazines have published book reviews from time to time to recommend books, and many readers on social media have spontaneously tweeted books. Your book has taken the American publishing industry by storm like never before!"

Zhang Chu was embarrassed by this series of compliments, but he didn't interrupt the other party's words.

Blair has created quite a few bestsellers, but he has never taken on such a super-bestseller.

As early as last Christmas, "The Da Vinci Code" successfully broke the sales record of 6 million hardcover copies set by "Dream of the Covered Bridge" that year, and became the number one best-selling work of the year!

At that time, I could not have imagined that during the birth holiday of Christ Jesus, this work exposing Jesus as a man and not God would be the best seller.

People bought The Da Vinci Code in bookstores, wrapped it as a gift and gave it to each other.

I have to say, this is extremely ironic.

If this year's movie is also released on the Christmas schedule, it will really have to compete with Catholicism and Christianity!

Zhang Chu is worried about whether Disney has such courage.

Because the summer file is definitely too late, it is almost April now, and the crew of "The Da Vinci Code" is still filming, and it is estimated that there will be another month to finish.

"If you follow the current sales trend, your book is likely to be the top 10 bestseller of the year, and it has become the most read book in the world last year. ”

Zhang Chu had to break Blair's dream, "maybe a new book will pull it off the New York Times bestseller list." ”

"Which one?"

"The Lord of the Rings!"

After hearing Zhang Chu's answer, Blair let out a hearty laugh.

"If I could see that scene, I think the company would have a big celebration party. You're going to have to come and join us!"

If "The Lord of the Rings" could be as successful as "The Da Vinci Code", then Blair would indeed wake up laughing from his dreams.

Super bestsellers are very rare, and if you have a bad heart, you also need to prepare a quick-acting heart-saving pill to save you from happiness and sorrow.

"It depends, I'll give you the first draft of my work before the end of April. ”

"Perfect!"

The two chatted for a while before hanging up.

Zhang Chu's originally calm heart is now slightly rippling, how long can his version of "The Da Vinci Code" be polished on the New York Times?

There is no need to worry about the time in the list, the focus is on the championship.

When he was writing "The Da Vinci Code", he looked up the situation on the earth in the savior system, and Dan Brown's work won the championship in the New York Times for 76 weeks, and successfully entered the ranks of the top ten super bestsellers in the United States!

In this life, because Zhang Chu changed the identity of the protagonist Professor Robert Langdon from Harvard University to Yang Xuan, a professor at Yenching University on the Chinese side, from a certain point of view, it has some influence on the North American market and even the entire European and American markets.

Swings and roundabouts.

In the case of the overseas market being affected, the energy of the domestic market can basically make up for those shortcomings!

As the French magazine Figaro said, at least 400,000 people around the world read The Da Vinci Code every day.

What a terrifying number!

The Da Vinci Code hasn't been on this list since it was released in the United States.

No matter how many new works are listed, the lowest is to be ninth, and then back to the top of the list.

This menacing appearance seems to be about to become a book of domination!

As long as a work becomes famous, it is likely to stay on the best-selling list forever.

For example, "Off the Beaten Road" (also translated as "The Road Less Traveled"), which once set a record for consecutive No. 1 lists in the New York Times, has been on the list for more than 394 consecutive weeks!

365 days a year, that's only 52 weeks.

394 weeks on the list means that the book has been on the list for seven and a half years, what a terrible number!

Note that the above refers to 394 consecutive weeks on the list.

When it accidentally made the list, the warm-hearted Americans quickly picked it up again.

As a result, this super-bestseller has been on the New York Times bestseller list for nearly two decades, creating a miracle in the history of publishing!

In the fierce competition of wolves, "The Da Vinci Code" is a work written by a foreigner, and the two protagonists are not Americans, and there are some unfathomable and mysterious meanings, no matter how you look at it, it is not like the kind that Americans like.

But curiosity prevailed!

The more Catholicism is attacked, the more curious the populace becomes!

A mere 12-week championship is nothing, after all, there are many books that have reached the championship record of 30, 40 or even 50 weeks.

Now there is a chance to compete with The Da Vinci Code is the companion book to the world-selling book The Book of Questions.

"The Book of Questions" contains almost all the brain-wrenching questions in the world, such as the strange question of who will be the first to fall into the river between the mother and daughter-in-law, and all kinds of strange questions make people brain-opening.

It has won the New York Times charts for 58 weeks!

And "The Book of Answers" is a work that has not been released for a long time, thinking about your own questions in your heart, and then opening the book at random to see what the answer is given on the page.

Now it has become an Internet celebrity, and many Internet celebrities and variety shows are recommending it.

If you are a hipster who loves to try new things, then you must have heard of this book, which can be called a gospel for choice difficulties!

Compared to The Da Vinci Code, it has a congenital disadvantage, that is, it cannot be read with an e-book.

Every page of the book has a simple sentence that can be found in everything from career planning, life goals, to evening food choices.

If you read an e-book, you will lose the mystery and surprise of turning the book, and its role will be gone!

The rest of the time, The Book of Answers might indeed replicate the splendor of The Book of Questions, but it ran into the more sinister The Da Vinci Code.

It's lucky to have grabbed the championship for a week in the first week of release, and it's not enough to pull down that book of dominating the list!
