Chapter 248: Escort (Subscription Requested)
"Twilight" conquered the global market, but in China and the United States, it was strongly sniped by Lin Han, "The Three-Body Problem" successfully counterattacked in terms of weekly sales, and "Jurassic Park" topped the New York Times bestseller list for three consecutive weeks.

The fire in the backyard is probably the best way to describe it, whether it is home or away, Lin Han has been successful.
The surge in sales of "The Three-Body Problem" is imminent, not to mention the shortage of shopping websites, and even physical bookstores have been sold out, whether it is a first-tier city or a small N-tier county, there are a large number of people waiting to be fed.
Employees in the rumbling printing plant were working overtime in three shifts to print and bind, and one big truck after another was transporting boxes of novels to all parts of the country.
On Weibo, the accounts of the National People's Congress Publishing House have fallen, and countless readers have left messages urging it to reprint and ship them quickly, and readers who do not have Kindle e-books do not like to use mobile phones or computers to read them.
But there is also good news from Amazon, and there are really people who run to buy kindle to download "The Three-Body Problem" because they can't buy the physical book of "The Three-Body Problem".
You must know that the cheapest kindle costs a few hundred yuan, which is definitely a true love fan.
The inadvertently increased sales of e-book readers were obviously a surprise, and Lin Han even bought the latest version of the Kindle himself, so that he didn't have to carry the rest of the books when he went out in the future, and this thing could hold thousands of books in a light way.
I don't know since when, Lin Han is gradually dominating the e-book sales sector, perhaps because e-books and science fiction are closer to the future trend, so his sales remain high.
At this time, there have been a large number of articles on the Internet interpreting the novel "The Three-Body Problem", whether it is positive or negative, with the growth of sales, it has once again appeared in front of netizens.
People who like this book regard this book as a science fiction bible and the pinnacle of Chinese science fiction, and those who don't like it desperately belittle it, and controversy is the real popularity.
It is undeniable that Lin Han's series of novels has expanded the readership, from science fiction fans to literature lovers, from scientists to entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs, more and more people in the industry have begun to pay attention to science fiction.
Lin Han was sitting in the café chatting with Li Wenyuan at this time, and Li Wenyuan had finally finished the promotional activities for his new book "Out of the Galaxy" during this time.
His new book is tepid, if compared with his previous book "Out of the Solar System" sales in the same period, it is a little lower.
This is not because the content is poorly written, but because the reference of the novel is strong.
In the past, the whole Chinese science fiction was in decline, and he was the tallest among the short ones, so the evaluation of each book was quite high.
But now that Lin Han has sprung up, raising readers' horizons to a world-class level, and after the taste is raised, readers will naturally feel that Li Wenyuan's new book is not surprising enough, and there is not enough room for improvement.
The achievement of selling 700,000 copies in three months is second only to Lin Han's demonic existence in the science fiction circle, Li Wenyuan himself complained at this time and said: "You kid can be regarded as hurting us, and now these science fiction novels of yours are simply too far behind us, and they will directly crush us to pieces." ”
"I am kindly urging you to write more and better works, with good intentions. Lin Han took a lazy sip of coffee, wanting to improve the level of science fiction in the whole country is by no means his own business, and it requires writers and readers to work together.
"Forget it, what are you going to do when you come out of me today?"
Li Wenyuan asked curiously, he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Lin Han's gourd.
Lin Han glanced at his watch, yawned and said, "It's too boring to be at home alone, so I'm looking for you to come out and let off steam." Of course, I also hid from the publisher or the rest of the people looking for me. In addition, I am mainly looking for you to refer to whether I should buy a house in the imperial capital now. ”
"If you do what we do, you can write anywhere if you say something unpleasant. Even if the house you buy yourself is a kennel, it is better than renting someone else's house. Li Wenyuan rolled his eyes, "Besides, you have so much income now, it's more than enough to buy a house." ”
Xiaofu Ji'an is probably the best portrayal of Lin Han, he doesn't expect how much he can earn, anyway, it is enough to write books with peace of mind and expand his copyright in a down-to-earth manner.
Now that he has enough spare money in his hand, he has not used it to invest or speculate in stocks, and buying a house has become the most realistic use.
In this world, owning a house of his own is obviously more oily and more belonging, he said to himself: "I plan to buy this house I rent now, the location is good, the environment is very good, and I am too lazy to move." Anyway, it's going to be overused, and I'll do the rest later. ”
The second-hand houses in the Fifth Ring Road are generally more than five million, and Lin Han's purchase of a temporary residence is also a hidden investment, and the house price has soared all the way without stopping.
Li Wenyuan gave himself a thumbs up and said admiringly: "I have to admire you when I buy a house to live temporarily." By the way, why would you want to meet with those online writers, you don't have to fight at all, it's not a good idea. ”
"It's just that my head was short-circuited at that time, anyway, it's just a matter of one sentence, it won't affect me. Lin Han knocked his head, and after making up his mind, he decided to ask the landlord to see if the other party was willing to sell.
The last two days of the National Day are considered the peak period for returns, and Li Wenyuan, like Lin Han, can completely avoid these peak periods as freelancers who do not need to travel and vacation during holidays.
"Let's talk about your novel, you have made a lot of progress in "The Three-Body Problem", but I think when creating characters, it seems that there is a bit of a lack of priority. The images of Ye Wenjie, Wang Miao, and Evans are not as distinct as the policemen in history. ”
Although Shi Qiang does not have much pen and ink in the novel, his image is very plump, and his vulgar words are not clear streams but mudslides, but he has a keen sense of observation and has the ability to fight calmly in the face of danger, from the radical general method at the time of leaving the factory to introduce Wang Miao into the combat center, to appease the team members in the middle and put forward the guzheng action plan to win the judgment day number, and after knowing the three-body crisis, he took Ding Yi and Wang Miao to the North China Plain to see locusts to build confidence.
This character has a very high level of popularity among Lin Han's readers, and almost everyone likes him.
Lin Han replied: "Do you want to say that he is the master? Actually, there is no need, the focus of this novel is not on the character portrayal, and Wang Miao and they are not the protagonists in the strict sense, they are just witnesses." ”
In fact, the first part of "The Three-Body Problem" is not the best, and the next two parts will unfold the magnificent picture, and Lin Han can't wait to write this trilogy.
Writing a novel requires you to feel excited, and you can show it to readers if you think it looks good and shocks. If the author himself doesn't find it interesting, the reader will certainly think the same.
As a kind of literature for ordinary people, science fiction has obvious market attributes, and whether a science fiction novel is successful or not is related to the content of the novel and the writer on the one hand, and external factors on the other hand.
After the two of them communicated together for a while, Li Wenyuan got up and left, and Lin Han was also going to go to the supermarket to buy some ingredients and go back, there would be a big storm tonight, and he had to avoid it at home for two days.
……
At about nine o'clock in the evening, Cao Mengru, who was scrolling through the latest news of Hollywood stars on Twitter, suddenly saw the new news pushed by TMZ, and she was stunned!
"Paramount announced that the great director Spielberg will take over "Jurassic Park" and announced that it will be set for the summer of 2018!"
Cao Mengru is a girl who likes gossip, she knows everything about European and American stars, she doesn't like science fiction, but she can't help but have a boyfriend who likes Lin Han's novels.
So she also knows the general content of the novel "Jurassic Park", after all, she hears it every day, and it's hard to know it.
Such a domestic science fiction novel is actually related to Steven Spielberg, she hurriedly handed her mobile phone to her boyfriend Bai Yunfei who was watching the ball game next to her, "Look, your idol's novel is going to be made into a science fiction blockbuster, invest 200 million US dollars, a lot of money!"
Bai Yunfei shifted his attention from football to his mobile phone, and after seeing this English message, he subconsciously asked: "Is this news really fake?
"It should be true, I saw that in addition to TMZ, N, CBS, and NBC are also being reported by many other media outlets, and it is said that this is the news announced by Paramount at a press conference. ”
"I'll go, I'll just say, a wonderful novel like "Jurassic Park" has to be filmed by Hollywood, Spielberg personally did it, it's no problem at all, you must go and see the movie when it is released!"
This is definitely a breaking-news, and many Hollywood media outlets have been shocked, one is one of the most famous directors, and the other is the number one science fiction novel that is selling on the charts, and this powerful combination is endlessly exciting!
Nowadays, with the development of online consulting, a message can almost resist the time difference factor and spreads rapidly around the world, from North America to Europe to Asia, the whole network is high.
Anyone who pays a little attention to the entertainment industry or movies knows Steven Spielberg, who won two Academy Awards for Best Director with "Schindler's List" and "Saving Private Ryan", and has filmed countless classics.
From Jaws to Happiness Terminal, from the Raiders of the Lost Ark series to Impunity, science fiction movies such as "Alien E.T.", "Minority Report", "War of the Worlds", and "Artificial Intelligence" are equally excellent.
It is not an exaggeration to say that he is known as the "Dream Weaver of Films", who can make both literary and commercial films, which is extremely rare in the global film industry, and was even listed by Time magazine as one of the 100 most important people in the world in the 20th century.
No one expected Spielberg to be moved by this script, he had not made a commercial film for several years, because it was difficult to meet opponents.
Even the most daring readers didn't associate him with Jurassic Park, and now they are overly surprised to hear the news.
"Spielberg announced the directing of "Jurassic Park", and Chinese science fiction ushered in the peak moment!"
"With an investment of 200 million US dollars, dinosaurs will be rampant in the summer of 2018!"
"Lin Han's new work "Jurassic Park" finalized the director, and Paramount Sword named the global box office champion next year!"
"Spielberg Zan Linham not only writes well, but also convincing the screenplay"
"Chinese science fiction ushers in the world's top production team"
……
All kinds of news emerge in an endless stream without spending a penny, which is the publicity effect of Spielberg and "Jurassic Park".
Just the combination of these two names makes people feel full of highlights, no one thinks that this will be a bad movie, and the expectations are instantly full.
Originally, "Empire" magazine gave the special topic "The Ten Most Anticipated Movies" for next year's summer file, but now as soon as the news of the finalization of "Jurassic Park" came out, it directly squeezed out the rest of the movies and topped the list!
At the same time, the name of this novel began to be exposed in all the media in the world, and many people who have never paid attention to novels also know that there is such a novel, and some people even think that it is a tourism advertisement, and many people are asking where Jurassic Park is and how much is the ticket.
With Spielberg to escort this novel, Lin Han is 100% satisfied. He didn't expect that in this world, Lao Si didn't shoot "Jurassic Park" when he was young, but now he still shoots it when he is old, as if there is a pair of invisible hands in the dark that are gradually correcting these.
He actually knew it before these people, because Paramount told him the news half a month ago, and Lin Han even sent an email to Spielberg to communicate about the movie script.
No one will question Spielberg's directing ability, no one will doubt the excitement of "Jurassic Park", and no one will worry about Paramount's funding and publicity, which makes Chinese netizens ecstatic.
There are a very small number of angry young people who are spraying Lin Han why he didn't write the background of the novel in China and didn't let Chinese directors and companies make this movie, but the vast majority of people have brains.
If it is a martial arts film, it will definitely choose the Chinese, but who dares to take over the sci-fi film?
The forum of the Hanlin Academy has become a sea of joy, and fans from different countries are celebrating, they really like the novel "Jurassic Park", and they were worried that the movie would destroy the original book, but after seeing Spielberg's name, they immediately let go of a hundred hearts.
Speaking of fame, Lin Han may not be one percent of Spielberg's, it took him decades to have his current influence, and Lin Han has only written novels for less than a year, and there is still enough gap.
