Chapter 305: UK Publishing Ready!
"Ye Yu, is the problem serious?" Beside Ye Yu, Su Xiaomo asked worriedly.
Although she couldn't read the island language, she saw that there were not many links attached to the email, and Ye Yu also said just now that these are some large media, celebrities and the like, so she can't help but be a little worried.
After all, after a while, Ye Yu will go to the island country, if the development does not go smoothly at this time, I am afraid that it will be half the result by then.
"Although there is a lot of news and rhetoric, it is not really a serious problem." Ye Yu shook his head and said, "Hollywood stars in the United States are popular in the island country, but no one resists. In the final analysis, it is a question of whether the work can be bought by the public. ”
"That's good" Su Xiaomo breathed a sigh of relief, thought about it and said, "Gutian Publishing House is not a vegetarian either, right?" I've heard that it's the largest publishing house in the island nation. ”
"yes!" Ye Yu smiled, "It's because of it, I don't have anything to worry about." Otherwise, maybe under the joint suppression of some forces in the island country, no publishing house would dare to publish my book.
However, Gutian Publishing House is the largest publishing house in the island country, and its strength in terms of contacts and channels is still very hard, and it has reached a preliminary cooperation intention with our company, so naturally there is no reason to give in.
Of course, there is no need for it to make any rebuttals, it just needs to publish as usual.
I have faith in "If the Whole World Rains", and "Gintama". Especially "Gintama", the current level of manga in the island country is still too low. ”
"Will this be the case in the UK?" Su Xiaomo thought of something else and asked.
You must know that now Ye Yu is developing at both ends.
Almost simultaneously, he extended his hand to both the east and the west - Britain and the islands.
Of course, reaching out and growing here refers to the establishment of subsidiaries and the expansion of overseas business, not just the spread of the influence of the work there.
"No, it won't." Ye Yu denied, "My affairs in the UK were helped by Prince Harry, and the larger local forces in Britain should know this." Therefore, there will not be a wide range of unfavorable remarks like in island countries.
Prince Harry introduced it, and they also talk about culture wars like island countries, isn't this girl looking for death?
Moreover, Westerners don't know as much about our China as they do about the islands. Cultural tastes are even more different, although they may know my performance in Huaxia, but whether this can arouse the vigilance and attention of those giants, I can't say.
Perhaps, in their opinion. Although my work is booming in China, it is bound to hit the streets when it is published in the UK, so there is no need to worry about it.
After all, the cultural differences between China and Britain are not at the same level as the cultural differences between China and island countries.
As for some sporadic unfavorable news, it is naturally inevitable. Any country is indispensable to the media that likes to play on the sidelines and win the attention of readers. ”
I have to say that Ye Yu really guessed right.
In the eyes of some British publishing giants, the cultures of the East and the West are completely different, and the tastes of readers are also different. Orient. Including China, island countries and other countries, many writers who are famous in their homeland and even in the entire East have published their works in the West, and they still hit the streets without even knowing their mother!
There are too many examples of this.
Therefore, although Ye Yu, a 19-year-old boy, was very popular in Huaxia, he did not attract much attention from them.
You say Prince Harry adores him and loves his work?
Oh, my God! In the UK, who doesn't know that Prince Harry loves Chinese culture. It's a Huaxia expert?!!
You say Queen Elizabeth praised him?
Come on!
It was during the queen's visit to China, and it was about cultural exchanges, who can say for sure how much gold this praise has?
So said it. It is estimated that the one named Ye Yu will roll back in a short time.
Can you be angry with Prince Harry for him?
Although it's not a feudal period, it's not good to have a bad relationship with the royal family!
Based on this idea that Ye Yu was going to hit the street, and after all, it was Prince Harry himself, they didn't say anything, or rather, they didn't care much.
"Why!" I heard Ye Yu say that those publishers in the UK may think that he will hit the streets. Su Xiaomo was suddenly a little unconvinced, and said, "I also read your "Sherlock Holmes Detective Collection"!" Even if you translate it into the Chinese version, the style is very Westernized! ”
"yes!" Ye Yu spread his hands and said with a smile, "But others don't know!" Those British publishers don't know! ”
"I'm sure they'll be surprised, I think." Su Xiaomo said, "Speaking of which, it seems that today is the publication time!" ”
"Hmm. It has been advertised in the UK for some time and is published today. Ye Yu said as he looked at the lower right corner of the computer screen and said, "Count the time difference, it should be on sale now!" ”
……
London, United Kingdom.
Brown? Taylor is an ordinary British white-collar worker.
During this time, he had a bit of an itch in his heart, because almost a month ago, Queen Elizabeth visited China and signed some agreements with China on cultural exchanges.
None of this is another thing that tickles his heart.
During her visit, the queen went out of her way to praise a young Chinese writer, oh no, according to the information he received, it should be a young writer!
And what is even more surprising is that the work of the young writer mentioned by the Queen is serious literature!
Oh God, it's both surprising and curious!
With this in mind, the self-proclaimed gentleman naturally wanted to see the novel called "Judgment".
"How can I not look at the works that the queen praises?" He thought.
He believed that with the agreement between China and England, and the Queen's praise, the novel would certainly be published in England in a short time.
As it turned out, it did.
Although it was not the British publisher who got the publishing rights to the English version of "Judgment", but with the help of Prince Harry, the company of the young Chinese writer came to England to take root, but for him, none of this mattered.
It's the fiction that counts! It's "Judgment"!
He took a lot of interest in the book.
The Queen's praise is the primary reason, but there is a secondary reason.
In the past month, some Britons who understand Chinese, as well as overseas Chinese in the UK, bought the Chinese version of "Trial" online, and after reading it, they also commented on the Internet.
Brown? Taylor has read the statistical post - 62% of people think they don't know what to say, they don't understand what the author is talking about, 29% think they don't understand, they seem to be very powerful, and 9% think that this is a classic and an immortal work!
Such a strange evaluation made him want to see the book as it really was.
"I heard that this time there is a book called "Sherlock Holmes Detective Collection" to be published together?" Brown? Taylor shook his head and thought to himself, "As soon as you hear the name, you know that this is a detective novel, presumably using "Trial" to make money!" ”
Thinking so, he put on his coat, felt his pockets—well, his wallet—opened the door, went out, went downstairs, tightened his clothes, and braved the cold wind to walk to the bookstore in the neighboring block.
He's going to buy books.
