The brilliant achievements of "The Martian" at the Venice Film Festival are remarkable, and it is difficult for Chinese films to make such a big breakthrough after the new century, which is something that many film masters cannot do. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Because of this, this science fiction novel, which has been published for nearly two years, is once again back in the eyes of the mainstream media, and people who have not read the original novel are curious about what kind of story this is!
While the iron is hot, Chang'e Pictures announced the global trailer of "The Martian" on YouTube, adding a lot of new content, which made the audience laugh and be a little moved.
This is the best advertising film to promote China and the China Space Agency, in order to rescue this astronaut, the whole world is focused on bringing him home, such humanistic feelings, no matter the cost, so that every audience can get a baptism of the soul!
As one of the three major film festivals in the world, the Venice Film Festival has received widespread attention all over the world.
In Hollywood alone, there are many authoritative media reports, from CNN, NBC, FOX, abc, CBS and other national radio and television networks in the United States, to the Associated Press, "The New York Times", "Washington Post", "Los Angeles Times", "Wall Street Journal" four major newspapers jointly published news, in addition to the British BBC radio, Reuters tracking reports, France's AFP, French financial newspapers are not lagging behind, as for Italy's Italian national news agency, The Milan Post also gave a special report!
Today, unlike in the past, "The Martian" has not been reported by so many authoritative media when it was at its peak, and it was only in the book review section that it topped the New York Times bestseller list.
The media at home and abroad are extremely consistent, and the group of people who were not very interested in science fiction before have become familiar with the title of "The Martian" after experiencing a multifaceted joint bombardment, so the sales have launched a counterattack at this moment!
Many domestic sales charts have soared to 90,000 miles, and the real-time monitoring list of American book sales has also performed well, and the sales list of the United Kingdom, France, Japan, Germany, Canada, Russia and many other regions can be seen "The Martian" The title of the book is followed by a bright red ↑ rising arrow!
It is charging forward one by one with an unstoppable attitude, as if no novel in front of it can stop it, even if it is Lin Han's "Resident Evil", even if it is the highly praised "Inception", there is no one who can fight!
The inventory of major bookstores in China was sold out almost in three days, and the phone calls of the heads of various distributors and chain bookstores were desperately calling the big publishing house, and no one expected that the sales would be so fierce.
The Martian is also selling well in the rest of the world, and its comeback is even more terrifying than the peak of the first wave!
The USA is sold out!
France sold out!
Germany sold out!
UK Sold Out!
Japan strongly demands restocking!
There was even a fight and bloodshed in Australian bookstores because of book grabbing!
The Russian man accidentally burned down the house while drunk, and the Korean media claimed that Lin Han had his own blood!
Publishers all over the world are suffering and happy, they are constantly enduring the urging voices from all over the world, but all this is real sales, as long as they can be printed, they can be sold, which is something that has not been encountered for many years!
Penguin Publishing Group spans the world, and Lin Han's editor Alex was already working on "Resident Evil", which he had only released not long ago, but he was caught off guard by the menacing comeback of "The Martian".
The branches in each country are running at full speed at this time, and they are constantly printing and printing!
Continuous reprinting has become an event that has amazed even Penguin Publishing Group, and the printing shop with which the company works well is almost non-stop, running almost 24 hours a day, except for machine maintenance hours.
As soon as they are printed, the smell of ink has not yet dissipated, and there are large trucks to transport them, disperse them to bookstores everywhere, and then present them in the hands of readers!
The last time the sales of "The Martian" peaked, more than one million copies were sold in a week worldwide, but this time the statistics are not complete, and more than three million copies were sold in just five days, which is still because of the lack of supply, and readers have no choice but to buy it!
Because of this, the sales of the digital version of The Martian have grown rapidly, with sales soaring by more than one million copies this week compared to last week, setting a single-day download record for Amazon Kindle e-books!
Who made it impossible to find physical books in bookstores, and even several major shopping websites showed that they were out of stock at the same time, and netizens who were curious about novels could only choose to read e-books, otherwise they would have to wait for the replenishment.
Originally, the total sales volume of "The Martian" in Amazon China was 1.2 million, but after such a toss, it instantly topped the weekly and monthly lists, and ranked in the top ten on the annual list in one go!
You must know that it is Lin Han's early work in the early days of writing, and it cannot be found in the annual list of Amazon's Kindle e-book store, and it is all suppressed by the new books released this year.
As a result, once he turned over and sang, the sales of the movie-winning novels skyrocketed, so that Lin Han's income could increase a lot!
Lin Han's science fiction novels are considered to be experts in anti-sales on Amazon China, but they can only be regarded as first-class players in Amazon America, and this skyrocketing sales have also made "The Martian" on a par with his most famous novel "The Three-Body Problem" series in terms of total sales.
This is the benefit of developing copyright, not only the copyright itself can make money and expand its influence, but also drive the original work.
Now it is only because "The Martian" won an award at the Venice Film Festival that it has been exposed by the media, and if the film is released, it will usher in another sales frenzy.
Zhao Han of the National People's Congress Publishing House can be said to be proud of the spring breeze recently, Lin Han always inadvertently surprises him, this is the tenth time that "The Martian" has been reprinted, and the purchasing staff of those bookstores and large shopping websites are eager to be stationed outside the printing house for a long time, almost all of them rush to greet him.
Because of the unexpected popularity of "The Martian", the printing of "Hyperion" will naturally be delayed, after all, there is only one point of the machine, and now it can only be given to "The Martian"!
That's right, on the third day after the end of the film festival, Lin Han handed over the revised final product to the National People's Congress Publishing House, and asked them to take it for revision and revision.
But according to his current position, no one dares to put forward any opinions, or they don't know how to revise it, after all, this is already an excellent work, beyond the scope of these editors' capabilities!
For the People's University Press, Lin Han has become a veritable cash cow, and his works in the past year or two have been able to regain the sales championship, who knows if his previous books will follow "The Martian"?
……
In the suburbs of Yanjing, Fuhua Printing Factory, in the conference room.
"Mr. Zhao, whatever the 50,000 books in our Sanye Bookstore have to be given today, otherwise our boss will have to cut me."
"To be honest, we have cooperated with Mr. Zhao for a long time in our self-operated book area, and we have never been in arrears once, and the cooperation is quite pleasant. In the book printed this time, how can you give us half of the score, and now our Tengu self-run has been scolded by netizens, and it is almost always out of stock. ”
"Our bookstore is bitter! Except for Bowen in the Yanjing region, Bowen bookstores in other regions are basically already available. If I can't get that batch today, I guess I'll have to change people! Mr. Zhao has to help me! ”
"The dealers below us are already arguing, can Mr. Zhao find a few more printers?"
"Mr. Zhao Mr. Zhao, we are Longteng Printing, I heard that you have a large demand for printing, so I will recommend myself, our quality is not worse than Fuhua!"
Like a zombie smelling blood, the representatives of these bookstores and shopping websites rushed towards Zhao Han one after another, and the representatives of Xinhua Bookstore, who originally disdained to scramble, also panicked when they saw this.
Zhao Han enjoyed this situation very much, he couldn't wait to be so sought after all year round, but now he said: "Don't worry, everyone, we are organizing the printing, and even suspended the printing of "Hyperion" in order to print "The Martian"!" Merchants who pre-order Hyperion now have priority access to The Martian. ”
This guy actually tied up two novels to promote the order of "Hyperion" among the dealers in a way that the old and the new were brought in, and they were both in charge of a large region, and if they were to buy and sell, it would not be as simple as one or two copies!
The representative from Sanye Bookstore took the lead in raising his hand, "We, Sanye, are willing to pre-order 100,000 copies of "Hyperion", which is limited to the Yanjing region!" ”
He's not stupid, "Hyperion" is also a pretty good work, and now the market is also hungry for that book, which is not a harsh condition, but a preferential treatment!
At that time, it is estimated that the first release of "Hyperion" will also need to grab the printing quota, and now it is better to kill two birds with one stone.
was reminded by the people in the Sanye Bookstore, and everyone in the conference room reacted, and they responded very positively, and no one wanted to be left behind.
"I also need 100,000 copies of blog posts!"
"Haidian Book City here to reserve 50,000 copies!"
"Give a quota of 100,000 yuan in the book wholesale market!"
"Rushui Bookstore wants 10,000 copies!"
