Lin Han left the Fuhua Printing Factory with a few sample books, and the rest of the books were handed over to his company's employees to transport back to the company, and then find a suitable way to send them out. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The second wave of sales of The Martian came and went quickly, and it was not very sustainable, but the sales in this week or two were almost the same as the sales of the previous year!

With the decline in sales, Lin Han finally put the physical cover of "Hyperion" and the renderings of the physical book on Weibo, "The long-cherished "Hyperion" is finally going to be a physical book, write one of your favorite stories under this Weibo and have a chance to win 800 physical books, and it will be drawn directly on the lottery platform one day later!"

"September 25th Mid-Autumn Festival will usher in the national release of the Chinese version of "Hyperion", now that the pre-sale channel has been opened, are you still worried about the bookstore rush to buy? Are you still sorry that you can't buy physical books? Online pre-order will be delivered to you on the day of sale, and there are beautiful posters randomly gifted, come and order!"

The People's Congress Publishing House also followed closely behind and launched an advertisement, and the time they set was just a week later, fortunately, "Hyperion" has its own hot search physique, and the publishing house does not need to spend much effort to promote, these online media and paper media and Lin Han's readers will help to promote.

If you don't send it, it's enough, and if you give it away, you will directly have 800 books, and the chance of winning the award is stronger than drawing one or two lucky readers, not to mention that there is Lin Han's signature on it!

Lin Han has always been lazy to the extreme, but he never expected that this time he would take the initiative to sign 800 physical books, which made readers feel tears when they thought about it, their requirements were too low.

So under Lin Han's Weibo, comments and retweets and the number of likes have shown geometric explosive growth, in just a few hours, the retweets have broken 200,000 people, there are 400,000 comments, and 510,000 likes, which can be called Lin Han's hottest Weibo!

Originally, there were more than 20 million fans who followed Lin Han, and at this time, coupled with the official recommendation of Weibo, the number of participants is increasing, and so many people share 800 signed books, and it seems that the probability of winning the lottery is not very high.

……

After "Hyperion" was completed, Lin Han gave himself a short vacation, and he and Chen Jiaxuan learned to paint oil paintings in the studio, and these things were used to hang in the villa as decorations.

He doesn't want to spend a lot of money to buy the works of well-known painters, and he also feels the same way when he gets them out himself, anyway, he can't appreciate oil paintings, he just wants to look at them comfortably!

Even if it was a holiday, Lin Han did not disappear from the media, because even if his second class at Peking University was changed to the 800-person hall, it was still difficult to find.

This time, not only the students of this school, but also many science fiction lovers, and even well-known science fiction writers, they didn't care about the problem of losing face, and came over to listen to Lin Han's opinions, wanting to know how they should write.

In fact, Lin Han is of course qualified to guide them, but he rarely participates in various salons!

However, the days of dissipation will not be long, and Miao Hong, the CEO of Galaxy Group, has helped him get a magazine cover with his personal connections, and he has to get to work again.

"The interview team from People Magazine has arrived at Yenching, and they will shoot a close-up of your face as a cover, and they will also have a detailed interview with you. ”

Chen Jiaxuan didn't expect Miao Hong's magical powers to reach this point, "People" magazine is a high-quality work even in Hollywood, and many actresses desperately want to be in the magazine!

Founded in 1974, People focuses on American celebrities and pop culture, and is a leading brand of Time Warner Media Group, which reports the stories of celebrities and ordinary people in a captioned and illustrated way every week.

From the fall of the Berlin Wall, the famous Simpsons murder of his wife, to the 911 terrorist attacks, from the car accident of Princess Diana of the United Kingdom to the election of the first black president of the United States, all historical events can be found in People magazine, and even the romantic history of Brad Pitt with Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie.

"People" magazine is the most accurate and effective magazine in the world, focusing on mainstream people, not only a large number of exclusive celebrity news pictures, but also in-depth interviews, especially on gossip is not kitsch nonsense, catering to the reading habits of the times, and is praised by Americans as the most suitable mainstream magazine to read in the toilet!

They are best known for their annual selection of the world's 50 most beautiful or handsome faces, the most beautiful women and the sexiest men, which are part of American culture every time they spark discussions around the world.

This time, "People" magazine was willing to come to Yanjing to interview Lin Han, in addition to Miao Hong's strong recommendation, "Time" magazine also had a lot of promotion to let Lin Han as the cover person, after all, Lin Han should be the hottest foreign writer in the United States now, there is no one!

If it is replaced by another writer, no matter how powerful Miao Hong is, he will not be able to persuade "People" magazine to come across the ocean for an interview, Lin Han's charm can be imagined.

At this time, Lin Han was working with Chen Jiaxuan for a long time in a store where the makeup artist put on simple makeup, in fact, it was to cover the relatively subtle acne marks on his face, and at the same time improve the overall contour, and then take care of the hairstyle, there was no trace of makeup at all!

He never thought of winning with his appearance, and according to his wood-like acting skills, it is impossible to have a too amazing performance in front of the camera, so writing with peace of mind is similar to doing behind-the-scenes work in a movie.

"I've been here for half a day, just getting my hair done, why don't I feel any change in my face?"

Lin Han asked in the mirror with some puzzlement, he had just sat still in the chair for a long time, and he also felt that a brush had brushed his face, but there seemed to be no change at all.

Chen Jiaxuan rolled her eyes, and she said to the makeup artist: "No way, straight men are like this." He thinks that I usually only wear lipstick when I wear lipstick, and he doesn't know what light makeup and nude makeup are!"

"Hey, I'm still here. Lin Han looked at his watch, and he said, "Let's go to the hotel's café now, otherwise it's not good to be late." ”

"I guess so, fortunately, it's not the peak time. After Chen Jiaxuan finished speaking, she said goodbye to the makeup artist, and then took the elevator to the parking lot.

However, things are a little more than expected, and although it is not the peak season, the road has been closed to a large extent, and it is said that the head of state of a certain country has come, so the road condition has been seriously affected.

By the time Lin Han and the others arrived, they were already a few minutes late, and everyone else was already waiting!

"Sorry we were late. ”

"It's okay, I know the traffic here is worse than in Los Angeles, and God, it took us almost two hours to get from the airport to the hotel yesterday!"

After shaking hands with the reporter, Lin Han sat down and slowly calmed his breathing, he didn't know what "People" magazine was going to ask, he didn't prepare at all in advance, he only relied on his own ingenuity to improvise.

Jamie took a serious look at the young writer in front of him, he seemed to have a calm temperament, the whole person was in a very good mental state, and he never seemed to have seen any negative news in his life, which was obviously much better than the bad private life of most celebrities!

"Mr. Lin, as you know, you have a very large number of fans in the United States, and they are all crazy about you. Jamie said as he opened the downloaded video on the iPad next to him, in which the young people were facing the camera to express their love for Lin Han's science fiction novels.

After watching this short video, Lin Han replied, "I'm glad they liked my novel, after all, it's a pleasant thing, maybe I should celebrate with a glass of champagne!"

"Of course, you should celebrate. According to the current incomplete statistics, you are the best-selling author in the American market this year, and you are probably the first pure foreigner to successfully break into American culture, congratulations. In so many novels, we can see that the background of the protagonist is changing, and even the latest novel, "Resident Evil", is the protagonist an American?

"To be honest, I didn't deliberately pursue the so-called American culture, which should be a natural thing. For some novels, I deliberately blurred the background, such as "A Bouquet for Algernon", which is just a small town and a small town, which can be in North America, Europe, or Australia. The background of the protagonist naturally follows the plot, and he does not deliberately pursue which country he is, so obviously the plot is more important. Lin Han also saw the trick and broke into the mainstream American culture, which seems to be unable to see immediate benefits for him, only let time slowly prove it.

Jamie expressed his appreciation for Lin Han's fluent English, many actors who bravely entered Hollywood can't achieve such authentic English, it's like living in North America since childhood, "Now let's talk about your novels, before you, I didn't even know the name of any Chinese science fiction novel, you made us impressed." What's the difference between science fiction and reality?"

Lin Han thought about it seriously for a while, and he said: "I always thought that reality was inseparable from science fiction, or that science fiction was invading reality!"

This seems to be a bit scary, "From the material level, the products and technologies predicted by science fiction are realized one by one around us, from mobile phones to the Internet, and even the so-called black technology, which has long become an indispensable part of reality." Science fiction is changing our reality and making it a better place. It carries the next earth-shaking qualitative change for mankind. ”
