Chapter 181: Xuanyuan Completes the Book (Third Update, 880 Monthly Pass Plus Update!)
SS Group is one of the largest publishing groups in the world, and has very strong capabilities in both physical and online stores. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Obviously, the relevant editors are also very optimistic about the book "Future War", although there is no new book conference, but the publicity is still quite in place, almost a new writer should have the publicity, and give a gimmick, that is, after "The Three-Body Problem", another masterpiece of Chinese science fiction.
As for the first printing, 300,000 copies will be distributed to both physical and online stores.
The first print of 300,000 is not a small number, even in a country like the United States, where the market for science fiction is very large. The price is several times higher than that in China.
There are many Chinese in the United States, and I heard that it is a Chinese science fiction novel, and it is another science fiction masterpiece after the so-called "Three-Body Problem", so it is naturally relatively more attentive.
There are many people who often go to bookstores and buy it after seeing it, and some people go to order online.
The news of the release of the English version of "Future Wars" abroad quickly spread back to China, and the most striking thing was not about the gimmick of the book's promotion, but about the translator.
There are no translators!
On the photos taken by foreign netizens, as well as on the cover of the novel that I saw on the Internet, I can't see the translator, only the author!
On the official website of SS Group's Huaxia office before, many people found this problem, although there was news that the translator was Hou Muyun, but most of them did not believe it, it was definitely a rumor, or a deliberately created gimmick.
However, at this time, the physical book has been released and put on sale, and the translator's name is still not visible on the cover. Anyone who is familiar with the laws of the United States regarding intellectual property knows that neither the author nor the publisher would dare to mess around with such a thing.
In this way, the answer could not be more obvious.
The translator of this book is really Hou Muyun!
Write and translate!
Hou Muyun is proficient in English and has met the requirements for publication!
I shudder!
However, thinking about Hou Muyun's previous performance in the live broadcast competition, he has such a strong memory, and it seems that it will become less difficult to master one more language.
For others, memorizing words is already a difficult task, but in this regard, Hou Muyun has no pressure. God knows if he can memorize a thousand words a day!
In this regard, many people are looking forward to the performance of "Future Wars" in the United States, but in Neon's "Nine Days", they are still worried!
Hou Muyun is also looking forward to it.
In the United States, no one knows Hou Muyun, so Hou Muyun wants to see what kind of sales can be achieved purely by the quality of the book.
For the first day of sales, Hou Muyun is not optimistic, what he sees is the word-of-mouth of this book in the future, as long as the word-of-mouth goes up, the sales volume will definitely not be low.
Whether it is the book market or the science fiction market, the magnitude of the United States is not comparable to that of China, after all, the awareness of intellectual property rights in China has only been established in the past few years, although the anti-piracy efforts have been great in recent years, but the piracy market is still there, and the scale is not small.
For example, the first volume of "Future War", although the sales volume of the genuine edition is now rushing to the super mark of 2 million copies, piracy still exists, as far as Hou Muyun knows from the Changjiang Publishing House, there are at least ten pirated versions circulating on the market today, and it is really difficult to calculate the number of copies.
If all of them support genuine reading, let alone the 2 million mark, it is very likely that it has already crossed the 3 million mark!
Now, "Future War" is the first popular book in China in recent times, Hou Muyun is looking forward to its performance in the United States, if it is eye-catching, royalty is one of them, and the most important thing is the points converted into influence!
At noon on the 10th, Hou Muyun, who had eaten in the studio, logged on to TT on time to start today's live broadcast.
"First of all, I would like to have a good news for you. ”
Hou Muyun looked at the number of people online, and it had quickly reached 6 million, and said with a smile: "Yesterday, I have renewed my contract with the TT live broadcast platform, and in the next year, you don't have to worry that I will run away." When the good news is finished, there is always bad news to follow. ”
"Everyone also knows that I am a person who loves to toss, toss a lot of things, and find a lot of things for myself. Writing books, comics, and music, I will also enter the crew of "Xuanyuan Sword Master" that has started filming in the next period of time, do some things within my bounds, and I can't really finish writing the script and run away, after all, there are still many places where I am the screenwriter and the original author. This drama Qingtian Film and Television has invested a lot of financial and material resources, in order to do this drama well, I can't just take the burden away. ”
After a slight pause, he said, "Talking so much, it can be regarded as an excuse to talk about the following things." As for the live broadcast, it will definitely continue, it is something I love, and it is also an opportunity to connect with so many friends. But the number of times will be relatively reduced in the future. Of course, it won't be reduced too much, but sometimes if you can't go live when you're busy, I'll take care of it, and I'll ask for leave in advance. ”
"After the bad news, a few more news. ”
"Today is the 10th, and the next part of the first volume of "Future Wars" will be serialized on the Internet to complete the first volume. Many netizens asked whether "Future War" would be a comic, and I will answer here that it will definitely be published. However, time will move back. ”
"A lot of friends suggested that I do a little more lyrics and brand name composition, and I have really done some recently, adding up to a total of 12 songs, and made an album. I discussed with some friends, and this album will not be given away, but will be distributed and sold, and all the proceeds will be used to buy ancient poetry books and donate them to places where they are needed. ”
"Finally, there is one more thing, that is, the serialization of the novel "Xuanyuan Sword Master" has entered the final stage. Originally, the novel would have been finished as early as last month, but due to various reasons, and the closer to the end, the more thoughts about the ending be, so it has not been completed until today. And today,I'll send all the rest of the part.,The remaining length is about nearly 80,000 words.,You can read it all at once.,I'm also officially finished! ”
"Okay, it's over, let's start live broadcasting!"
"Today, let's give you a new one. ”
Hou Muyun shifted the camera to a position, and the picture was aimed at a special table. But I saw a hand appear in the picture, and then with a wave, a lot of sand was spilled.
"Yes, sand paintings. Although I have painted before, sand painting is the first time. Next, it's a spoiler, it's a plot in the end of "Xuanyuan Sword Master". ”
