Chapter 891: Out of Reach
There was no cool atmosphere in the spacious library building, and the air conditioning was insufficient due to the large number of visitors.
Reporters from CCTV are filming next to Lin Han, and their station logo is the invincible pass!
"Mr. Kobayashi, your hands are shaking, why don't you rest for a while?"
The middle-aged reporter said with some concern, he was already very tired watching from the side, and the person concerned must be even more painful.
Lin Han wiped his sweat, he was dual-minded, answering reporters' questions while signing his name, "There are still many people waiting, I can't let them come in vain." ”
At least nearly 2,000 books have been signed today, which is not the most time at all.
"Mr. Lin, have you ever thought about using the seal you carved, it is much easier and more convenient, and they are all the same. ”
This is actually the practice of many people, they sign it and carve it into a seal, and then they take the seal and seal it directly with the ink, which is much simpler and less troublesome.
"That's too disrespectful, and cookie-cutter signatures aren't interesting. I'd rather have one less book signing than use this method. ”
Lin Han was gritting his teeth and persevering, his hands were about to cramp, so he had to take the time to pinch his fists and move his palms and arms, and sometimes he had this trouble when he was too popular.
……
Lying on the massage chair, Lin Han felt that the right half of his arm was about to be wasted, and the doctor was massaging him for physiotherapy, and he would have to get a silver needle later.
The previous book signing party was stunned until more than eight o'clock in the evening, and this was because the bookstore deliberately restricted readers from joining, otherwise there would still be so many onlookers waiting, and there would be no end at all.
"As I told you before, you can only be irresponsible for yourself, but also for those readers and the order of the bookstore!"
Chen Jiaxuan glared at Lin Han angrily, she knew that Lin Han was reluctant to leave and wanted to sign as many readers as possible.
Lin Han joked at this time: "If only I learned Zhou Botong's kind of left-right fighting, if I am tired of writing with my left hand, I will change to my right hand, and if I am tired of writing with my right hand, I will change to my left hand." ”
"Think beautifully, hurry up and restore your hand, but don't affect it in the future, the signing meeting will not be held if it really doesn't work. Your copy of Charlotte's Web didn't work, and it sold well."
"Yes, yes, my daughter-in-law is right. Lin Han yawned and asked, "Next time, if you don't give Mr. Zhao face, it's enough to do it once a year or two years." ”
Although Lin Han was tired, the response on the Internet was quite good, although he was not able to be on the news broadcast, but he was present in many columns such as the evening news.
Even the book "2001: A Space Odyssey" has been in a lot of news, from a wonderful hard science fiction to a book work that ordinary people know!
The inevitable dilemma of hard sci-fi is that as time goes by, there is always a new technology that may have excelled, but it has become obsolete.
It's like hard sci-fi like "The Martian", when people in the future go out of the solar system, it will probably become obsolete and then gradually forgotten, unless it can become a classic.
For example, "2001: A Space Odyssey" is a classic that will not be forgotten, of course, its classic is also supported by the movie of the same name, which is known as the best science fiction film in film history!
"Mr. Lin worked hard, I saw that his hands were cramping in the news, and he continued to sign as a result. ”
"I said that it was from 3 o'clock to 5 o'clock in the afternoon, but Mr. Lin was stunned to sign in at 8 o'clock, so dedicated......"
"The book is a good book, the author is a good author, and I must buy it in a hurry. ”
"I actually invited Jing Haipeng, but unfortunately I didn't go to see the book in space on the spot!"
"Big pit goods, I watched the serialization in front, and the back was gone. ”
"I'll go for it, Mr. Lin is digging a hole again, there are three more after "2001", the next one is called "2010: A Space Odyssey", I asked you if you are afraid?"
"Kneel, this is another lifetime series! Mr. Lin can you fill in the hole that was dug. ”
"The names of the next parts of "Jurassic Park 2" and "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" have come out, and this "Restaurant at the End of the Universe" has not moved for a year or two. And when will the third part of "Hyperion" come out?"
Readers are full of grievances, and of course it is better to have a book, but the follow-up content of these stories is really very difficult to accept if it is not explained.
Lin Han can't see their messages now, and many readers are petitioning to hurry up and release these sequels, just like "The Matrix" and "The Three-Body Problem"!
These two are Lin Han's most famous series, and they are also the happiest series for readers, and the trilogy was completed without making readers wait long.
Of course, the readers said no, but the body was very honest, either placing an order or running to the bookstore by themselves, they didn't want to miss Lin Han's book A Space Odyssey.
In the National People's Congress Publishing House, the editors and staff are very relaxed, they have no anxiety about the launch of the main product at all, but sit and chat.
After all, Lin Han + science fiction = invincible, as soon as "2001: A Space Odyssey" came out, the replacement of the champion of the sales list was an ironclad thing!
"Xiao Zhou, how many orders has our publishing house gotten on the Internet now?"
Zhao Han is concerned about this problem, and he doesn't have to worry about the total shipment, he wants to unite the traditional publishing house with the Internet.
As a result, official flagship stores have been opened on shopping sites such as Tianmao, Jingdong, Dangdang, and Amazon, which is equivalent to factory direct sales!
The publishing house sells books directly, eliminating the need for intermediate dealers to make the difference, and the price is naturally much cheaper, and the quality is guaranteed.
Even many of the most inferior retailers choose to place orders to buy books and sell them at the Tianmao flagship store of the National People's Congress Publishing House, and the cost is lower than that of finding a distributor.
"Now the whole network, the order is a total of 510,000 copies, and we are already organizing the delivery. ”
"2001: A Space Odyssey" has not been on pre-sale for too long because it has been serialized for a while, and many people only remember to buy the book after seeing the news of the book signing.
This book has just landed in major bookstores and online bookstores across the country, and it has successfully occupied this week's book sales list, with a single-day sales of 410,000 copies, which is not counting the data of direct sales from publishers!
The second place "Wind Yin 3" sold for 5 days and sold only 360,000, and it was directly pulled down, and the gap is getting bigger and bigger!
The publishers also knew that because the first few chapters had been serialized in Fantasy Times magazine for a while, sales in the first week would inevitably be affected, and they were all mentally prepared.
As soon as this sales figure came out, everyone relaxed and waited to see how it reacted in the global market!
