Beijing, Haiding District, Beijing Film Academy.

Gu Zhi agreed to the invitation of the Ming Daily Publishing House and came to Beijing to participate in the signing of Wukong Writing and Wu Difficult Road, which was held at the Beijing Film Academy.

Today is April Fool's Day, and to date, Wukong's book has sold more than 200,000 copies in mainland China.

In addition, there is also a good news that Gu Zhi did not expect at all, the sales of the traditional Chinese version written by Wukong in Wanwan, Hong Kong Island, and Aomen actually exceeded the total sales in the mainland, reaching 230,000 copies.

The current economic development is much greater than that of the mainland, and the copyright protection is also more perfect, and the result is that the sales record of the mainland has been easily broken.

The sales of another book also followed, with Wu Jian Dao selling 150,000 copies in the mainland, and about 200,000 copies in Hong Kong and the Olympics, which is about to surpass Wukong's achievement.

Wu Jian Dao depicts the story of the Hong Kong Island police and bandits, so the traditional Chinese version was very popular upon its publication, and the people of Hong Kong Island contributed the vast majority of the 200,000 copies.

For 7 or 8 months, the two books have been occupying the top two book sales in the mainland and the traditional market, slaughtering all the books.

Han Shao's "Sanchongmen" was also officially published and sold after the New Year this year, but it has always ranked third in the mainland, and there is a gap of more than 100,000 copies with the sales of Wu Difficult, and it is still far from catching up.

And that's just the sales in the mainland, and the traditional version of "Sanchongmen" has not yet been published, let alone that.

Gu Zhi's limelight completely overpowered Han Shao, and he was even much more famous than Han Shao in his previous life, and now he is known not only in the mainland, but also in almost the entire Chinese circle.

As for the fact that both of them dropped out of high school, they were covered by the furious sales, and the critical voices in society could only stir up a small splash.

Seeing such a hot sales situation, the Ming Daily Publishing House took advantage of the victory and reached an agreement with a number of overseas publishing houses, and has begun to print the English, Japanese, and Korean versions of Wukong and Wu Difficult Road, which will be fully listed overseas at a later date.

They can't wait to sell these two books all over the world!

Now that the publishing house has Gu Zhi's golden book of laying eggs in hand, last year's profits have doubled.

I didn't expect this year to be even more fierce, just three months later, the profit has been the same as last year's whole year, and the company predicts that it may quadruple this year.

He Jianping, the editor-in-chief of Gu Zhi, was also promoted to a wealthy position naturally, and was promoted from editor-in-chief all the way to the vice president of the publishing house.

It can really be said that one person has attained the Tao, and the chicken and dog ascend to heaven.

Now the publishing house can't wait to hold Gu Zhi in the palm of his hand, and this time the publishing house funded this signing event, which did a lot of publicity for Gu Zhi for free. Posters of him and his books were posted in major bookstores, and a large page was specially left in his own newspaper to publish the news that Gu Zhi was going to come to the capital to sign sales.

After he came to the capital, he took full responsibility from travel to eating and drinking, and booked a VIP room for him in the five-star Oriental LaCrosse Hotel, which made him feel a little flattered.

Before arriving in the capital, Gu Zhi took the time to calculate the total manuscript fee he had earned.

Counting the previous 170,000 manuscript fees, these two books brought Gu Zhi a total of about 1.66 million yuan, of which nearly 1 million is traditional royalty money.

Because the traditional Chinese of the two books are much more expensive than those sold in the mainland, Gu Zhi can earn two yuan and two cents for each book, which "far exceeds" the royalties of the mainland, and the sales volume exceeds that of the mainland, so the contribution will naturally be more.

With this money, Gu Zhi originally planned to spend money to live in the presidential suite of a five-star hotel after coming to the capital, but he had never lived in it in his life.

I didn't expect the publishing house to be so thoughtful and receive him ceremoniously, and he gladly accepted it.

The publishing house originally planned to hold a signing party at the Xinhua Bookstore in Wangfujing, Beijing, but later changed it to the Beijing Film Academy at the strong request of Gu Zhi.

For this reason, the staff of the publishing house secretly teased Gu Zhi in private, guessing that he deliberately changed it to a film school, which must have been to see beautiful women.

As we all know, the Beijing Film Academy is a place rich in handsome guys and beauties, and many stars have entered the film and television circle from the acting department here, accounting for almost half of the entire Chinese film and television circle.

Compared with the power of national stars, who else can I do with the Beijing Film Academy!

But many people often only see the glamorous stars on the surface, but ignore another important force in the Beijing Film Academy.

The famous major of the Beijing Film Academy is not only the acting department, but also the directing department.

The purpose of Gu Zhi's coming here today is to find a rising new director in the future.

The signing will officially start at 9 o'clock in the morning, and in addition to the signing session, Gu Zhi will also have a simple interaction with the book fans and answer their questions.

It was just eight o'clock, and the big playground of the Beijing Film Academy was already crowded with people, almost everyone holding two books in their hands, one written by Wukong and the other without difficulty.

A large part of the crowd were film school students, and some were book lovers who came early from all over the capital.

There are even many book lovers who came from other places on purpose, and in order to be able to participate in this signing meeting, they had to come to the capital a few days in advance and book a hotel to stay in the capital.

Most of the children's shoes from other places on the field carried a large schoolbag, which was full of Gu Zhi's books, which were brought by their classmates.

Because some book lovers from other places did not have the time and conditions to come to the capital, they entrusted their classmates or colleagues to bring their own books to Gu Zhi to sign them.

Some people will also charge a fee to sign on behalf of others, and then use the money received to buy tickets to come to the capital to participate in the signing, which can be regarded as a fan representative of unity and concerted efforts.

The security guards present worked hard to maintain order.

Fortunately, most of the people who came were students, and the quality was good, and many volunteers from the film academy spontaneously maintained order on the side, so that the crowd lined up in an orderly manner, and finally did not make a big mess.

As soon as nine o'clock arrived, the event officially began.

Today, Gu Zhi was dressed very refreshingly, with short hair and a shirt, clean and decent.

It's just that in the capital in April, it's a bit cold to wear such a little bit······

As soon as he appeared, he caused the audience to scream, and the scene was even more lively than a concert.

Book fans saw Gu Zhi's real person for the first time, and he was as handsome as in the photo, and they all felt that today was not in vain.

The activity first started the interactive answering session, but there were too many people on the scene, and the staff of the publishing house finally screened the ten most concentrated questions and asked Gu Zhi to answer them simply.

Many people's questions are very simple, the most asked is Gu Zhi's love situation, followed by questions about two books, and two questions about dropping out of high school.
