Chapter 267: Taste the Fragrance of Books
Time was in a hurry, and everyone could only cope with a simple lunch in the car. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
My sister-in-law was finally able to taste the famous British food, fish and chips.
Of course, the rating given is poor!
At half past twelve, Qin Feng walked into the BBC and sat down in front of the camera lens again.
This is a TV studio, and what is about to be recorded is the high-grade reading program launched by Bethson and the BBC: "Taste the Fragrance of Books"
This book show has a great influence in Europe and the United States, with countless audiences, and many writers want to be invited to sit here and talk and promote their works.
If you can be on this show, it will greatly increase the popularity of the novel, and the sales will also be greatly boosted, and even the unknown writer can become famous overnight.
In short, this show can be said to be famous in the publishing industry and cultural circles, so that countless writers flock to it, and they have to fight for the opportunity to sit here.
The main reason why Qin Feng can come here today is, of course, because of the high quality of "Harry Potter", this book has been unanimously affirmed and recommended by the expert group!
And then there's a strong topicality in him.
Chinese write Western magic novels, and they are so good, and they are a cross-disciplinary genius, rock star, poet and many other different identities.
This gives the BBC a glimpse of potential ratings, as well as attention.
Finally, because this is the best-selling book that Peishen is preparing to promote in the future, as a partner, the "Taste of Books" program team must of course fully cooperate.
Therefore, Qin Feng got this opportunity that almost all writers were envious, sitting opposite the host, in front of the camera, and in front of an audience of fifty or sixty people on the scene, talking about his novels.
In a few days, the episode will be broadcast to a global television audience.
What followed was the climax of the promotion of "Harry Potter" and the official publication on May 1.
After shaking hands with the host, director, and other staff members one after another, and introducing each other, Qin Feng sat on the sofa on the stage.
He was still wearing a Harry Potter coat, a red and yellow Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry scarf, and a delicate glass of water with Harry Potter on it in front of him.
On the table next to him, there are six or seven beautifully crafted novels, as well as magic hats, wizard robes, magic wands, Hogwarts castle models, Gryffindor pens, backpacks, and many other merchandise.
Except for the book, which was published by Peishen Company, the rest of the things were brought by Qin Feng from China.
Everything here is designed and produced based on Harry Potter merchandise from previous lives.
Under his strict requirements, the production is so beautiful and of such excellent quality that almost everyone will want to own one as long as they see it.
Sister Min and Julie also came to the studio, on a performance stage next to them, ready to participate in the recording of the show.
They also wore Harry Potter costumes and had different styles.
Sister Min wore a dark gray cardigan with a white shirt and a blue and gray tie, which was fresh and crisp and very beautiful.
Elton wears a red and yellow sweater, Rudolph wears a blue pullover jacket, and Terrence wears a wizarding robe.
Julie also wears wizarding robes, but the color inside is different from Terrence's, and she also wears a brown sorting hat, which is cute and a bit of a wizard!
Several of them loved their respective outfits very much, and they stood aside and kept looking at the details of their clothes, and they were still discussing with their companions in a whisper, discussing the differences and functions of their respective outfits, and everyone had a bright and excited smile on their faces.
When they appeared in these costumes, it immediately caused a sensation, and everyone's eyes were drawn to it.
After a burst of exclamations, everyone's eyes were immediately filled with envy, and they all wanted to know about these strange and unique clothes, and they were eager to own one, or even more.
Among them was the host, whose gaze had become scorching, staring at the numerous merchandise on the table, eager to claim them all for himself at once.
As for the reaction of everyone present, Qin Feng had already expected it, this was normal.
There is no one who doesn't like these costumes that are full of personality and magic flavor everywhere.
He is now pretty sure that as the novel is published and the sales boom, these beautiful merchandise will sell well and will continue to do so for a long time.
There are still six Harry Potter books waiting in the future, and more peripheral products will be released one after another.
Even after the series is published, the craze will continue, and the quality of the book is enough to ensure that it will last for a long time, and it will be at the top of the bestseller for a long time, and it will harvest the readers who have grown up with stubble after stubble.
For Qin Feng, "Harry Potter" is an incomparably huge gold mine, inexhaustible!
Half an hour passed, and everything was ready.
With the director's 'Action', the program officially began to be recorded.
"Bang Bang Bang"
Enthusiastic applause rang out
The camera is focused on the presenter standing on the stage, which will be his solo show.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the BBC, this is "Taste of Books", the most elegant and tasteful reading program.
Here, you will learn about the latest book information, appreciate the best books, and share the incomparable beauty of words with authors, as well as the colorful and fascinating world.
……”
Applause rang out, and the opening remarks ended.
Next, the host pointed to the information that appeared on the big screen and began to introduce the recent best-selling books in the European and American book markets, as well as the best-selling book lists in various countries.
Then he introduced some good books on the market and shared some of the highlights with the audience.
During this period, Qin Feng was a bystander, enjoying the host's personal show.
In about eight minutes, the opening introduction is over and it is time for dinner.
The host walked towards the sofa and said:
"Viewers who are familiar with this show know that we invite a writer friend to come to the show every episode to introduce his book and share his creative journey.
Today is no exception, but unlike in the past, the writer is very young and comes from a distant country with a long historical and cultural tradition.
Let's welcome the young writer from ancient China, Mr. Feng Qin, and his wonderful magical novel, Harry Potter!"
"Bang Bang Bang"
Applause rang out enthusiastically.
Meanwhile.
Listening to the voice of the on-site conductor in the headphones, Qin Feng immediately greeted the host with a smile.
The next second, he appeared in the camera.
"Hello!, Mr. Qin, welcome to the UK, welcome to the BBC's "Taste of Books"
Qin Feng shook hands with the host, smiled and said:
"Hello, Mr. Bolić, England is a beautiful country, I love it and the people here, and I feel very honored to be able to participate in your famous book show!"
The host Boric immediately smiled and continued:
"Wow, you're a very polite guy, I've already liked you, say hello to the audience and friends in front of the TV, and introduce yourself."
Qin Feng nodded, then turned his head and waved his hand to the audience and the camera lens, and said with a smile:
"Hello everyone, I'm Qin Feng, I'm from Shaanxi, China, I'm a sophomore, studying at the Technology and Business University in Beijing, China."
This is what Lao Li Qian told him before going abroad, if you dare to forget, there will be absolutely no good fruit to eat when you go back!
Qin Feng continued to introduce himself.
"In addition to being a student, I am also a writer and have written a magical novel that will soon be published by Bethel Publishing.
It's a great honour for the BBC to invite me to participate in Taste of Books, so that I can meet with you here, recommend my own books, and share some of the content.
My novel is Harry Potter, I hope you enjoy it, and I hope you can find joy in my words, thank you again!"
After speaking, he held up the book in his hand and displayed it in front of the audience and the camera.
"Bang Bang Bang"
The applause was renewed, and it was very warm.
Later, Bolich looked at Qin Feng's very characteristic clothes and asked:
"Mr. Qin, can you ask what is going on with your clothes? And the clothes of your friends, wow! It's so cool! It's so personal!"
Qin Feng looked down at the coat on his body, touched the scarf with his hand again, and then replied with a smile:
"This is the costume I designed especially for the characters in the Harry Potter novels, not only for Harry Potter himself, but also for his friends and everyone at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry."
"Wow! You're such a genius! You can think of so much! And you can design such a beautiful and unique outfit, it makes people feel excited."
Hearing Qin Feng's explanation, the host immediately let out a burst of exclamation.
At the same time, he was also impressed in his heart.
Obviously, the kid in front of him saw the huge potential of the novel, as well as the bright prospect of the inevitable best-selling, and had already begun to develop the novel's peripheral products at the first time, so as to make a big profit.
In the future, even if this novel is adapted into a movie or TV, no one else can take away these peripheral rights, at most they can only share with the kid in front of them, and most of the benefits must be ceded.
This is obviously a very thoughtful person who thinks about everything, takes the lead step by step, and leaves no loopholes!
Qin Feng smiled and said politely to the host, and his heart was also very proud.
He is reluctant to give up the income from peripheral products, which is a bigger piece of cake than the royalty of the novel! It can even reach several times the royalty income!
Ms. Rowling, the original author of "Harry Potter", made a billion-dollar fortune just by relying on book royalties, but that was only a tiny part of the "Harry Potter" industry chain.
According to relevant data, the "Harry Potter" series is a huge industrial chain of up to 200 billion US dollars, and a considerable part of it is the development of peripheral products.
Although I can't hold the entire industrial chain in my hands, I can see and reach most of the benefits, and it is impossible to give up!
Now, as long as the novel is officially published, the influence is increasing day by day, and those domestic contracted manufacturers can go all out and provide "Harry Potter" peripheral products to the market like a tide.
At that time, Fengyun Company only needs to authorize sales, and some people will send these things to book lovers.
Next, just lie down and collect the money!
The main sales markets of peripheral products are in Europe and the United States, and the reason why Qin Feng is fully armed today is also the intention of showing them all.
"Harry Potter" is more acceptable to European and American readers, as long as they fall in love with the novel and the characters in the book, many people are willing to pay for related products.
This is a sales concept that has been proven countless times, and it will not fail when it comes to Qin Feng.
What's more, the Harry Potter merchandise is so good and mature!
Moreover, the awareness of copyright protection in Europe and the United States is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and there is basically no need to worry about counterfeiting and infringement, and the interests are easier to be protected.
Finally, Qin Feng does not have any psychological burden on making money from foreigners, the more the better, and those who come will not refuse!
After chatting about peripheral products, the host led the topic to the band that had already been prepared.
"As far as I know, Mr. Qin is not only a writer, but also a rock star, and has won the British singles chart, am I right?"
"Oh my God, is what Bolic said true?"
Bursts of exclamations immediately rang out at the scene.
Some people are indeed hearing this for the first time and are immediately stunned.
How is that possible? Fiction writers and rock singers are so far apart! There is no connection in them!
Soon, the audience who understood the situation gave an affirmative answer.
"That's right, this Chinese kid is a rock star, and a champion singer"
The exclamations rose again, followed by all kinds of exclamations.
"Oh my God!
"It's incredible, how can there be such a person?"
……
On the stage, Qin Feng replied with a confident smile:
"Mr. Bolic, you're right, I'm a rocker, and I'm doing pretty well!"
"Great! Can we hear you before we start the interview? You know, I'm a big rock fan!"
The host was very excited and pushed forward according to the scheduled script.
"Of course, the band is here today, they're over there, everyone, please see"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the performance stage next to him.
The audience's eyes immediately turned to that side, and the camera turned to Sister Min and Elton at the same time.
"Bang Bang Bang"
Thunderous applause.
In the warm applause, Qin Feng walked quickly onto the stage, picked up the prepared guitar, and smiled at the host, the audience, and the camera lens.
The new song will be shown immediately.
