Chapter 6: Hogwarts
In the morning, after getting up and washing, Zhang Yang went to the fried liver shop to eat a bowl of fried liver, and his spirit was doubled, and then he returned home, opened the writing software on the computer and prepared to start his first step in influencing the world. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Zhang Yang has countless masterpieces in his heart, but Zhang Yang has been really distressed for a long time about which article to choose as the first shot. Having a good beginning has a great impact on future development. Just like a feast, before the dragon liver and phoenix marrow, there must be an appetizer to open everyone's appetite and arouse the appetite of diners. In this way, the appetizers and dragon liver and phoenix marrow will be praised by diners. However, if the order of the two dishes is reversed, then the appetizer at the back may not be pleased.
Therefore, Zhang Yang finally chose "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" as his first book.
Compared with "Sherlock Holmes", the "Harry Potter" series has a wider audience, after all, mystery novels are inherently narrower than magic novels.
Compared with "The Hobbit", "Harry Potter" is easier to understand, after all, the book "The Hobbit" has 220,000 words, but these 220,000 words are more like the prequel to the 1.08 million words of "The Lord of the Rings", and behind the Lord of the Rings is hidden is a vast Middle-earth world. Compared to a completely new world, Zhang Yang still feels that the world of Hogwarts is easier for readers to accept and digest.
As an ordinary college student, Zhang Yang's typing speed cannot be said to be fast, about 2,000 words per hour. But the whole collection of "Harry Potter" has been clearly printed in Zhang Yang's mind, no need to think about the wording, no need to think about sentence breaks, what Zhang Yang has to do is to mechanically move the words in his mind to the computer. In this way, Zhang Yang's speed can reach 4,000 words per hour, so if Zhang Yang works continuously for 12 hours a day, it only takes 5 days to transfer all the 228,000 words novel "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" to the computer.
"In 5 days, it should be just in time for the end of the 'no tip and no business' ability and the opening of new capabilities." Zhang Yang thought about it in his heart.
Because the money has been almost spent, Zhang Yang has nothing to trade now, so this "no tip and no business" ability is actually of little use to Zhang Yang. In the past five days, it has been a waste of publicity.
After making up his mind, Zhang Yang finally made up his mind and solemnly typed the title of the first book on the blank document.
"Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone"
"Chapter 1: The Boy Who Never Died"
Mr. and Mrs. Dursley, who live at 4 Privet Road, always said proudly......"
An hour......
Two hours......
Although he typed the keyboard and wrote the famous "Harry Potter", because Zhang Yang had never typed so many words with such high intensity, he was inevitably a little bored with mechanical labor while he was in high spirits.
After writing all the 8,500 words of the first chapter on the computer, Zhang Yang saved and closed the writing document, and went to the courtyard to take a breath.
Zhang Yang moved a stool and sat in the courtyard, blowing a gentle breeze, relaxing his spirit.
took out his mobile phone and set a 10-minute alarm, Zhang Yang only left himself a 10-minute break, and as soon as the ten minutes were up, he had to sit back in front of the computer obediently and start carrying the second chapter.
By the time the first three chapters were written, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon. Zhang Yang took out the leftovers from last night from the refrigerator, poured them into a wok, stirred them together to make fried rice, put them on a plate, and brought them to the computer and ate them in a big gulp.
After eating, Zhang Yang logged on to Weibo, registered an account with his mobile phone number, and prepared to upload the results of his busy hours to the website in the form of a blog, starting the name of the "Harry Potter" series.
After simply completing the profile of the account, Zhang Yang posted an 8,000-word blog called "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" through his newly registered Weibo account, which reads "Chapter 1, The Boy Who Never Dies".
Weibo has the function of spending money to promote, and Zhang Yang spent 5,000 yuan to choose to promote this blog post to 10w active users.
The "OK" button was clicked, and the balance of Zhang Yang's bank card instantly plunged.
Although this amount of money is not a small amount for Zhang Yang now, with the browsing of these 10w active users, Zhang Yang knows that the fire of the "Harry Potter" series has begun.
β¦β¦
Zhao Haitong is a director who has directed several popular movies, not to mention in the circle, but also among the general public, and has a lot of appeal.
When it comes to director Zhao Haitong, the audience's first reaction is his weird personality. is already a father of two children, but he is still such a child. I like to play with toys with children, like to grab food with children, and like to drink AD calcium milk that children like to drink.
The 40-year-old still retains a childlike heart, which is perhaps the reason why the director's work is eclectic, whimsical and so popular.
"Yaya, isn't the meal ready yet?" At the door of the kitchen, Zhao Haitong quietly poked his head out and said to the woman who was busy in the kitchen.
"It's coming." In the kitchen, Zhao Haitong's daughter-in-law Liu Xiaoya looked up while cutting vegetables: "Just wait a minute." β
"Oh. Then I'll come back later. Zhao Haitong nodded, turned around and went back to the study.
In the study, Zhao Haitong opened a packet of potato chips, and while eating, he tapped the keyboard with three clean fingers and logged into his Weibo account.
This is his own personal account, which is completely separate from the studio account, which is used for entertainment.
On weekdays, he will use this account to share some songs that he thinks are good, movies that he thinks are good, and he will also show his daily life.
looked through some of my peers' Weibo, in addition to the various non-nutritious Weibo sent by the studio in order to manage the image, there are more messy tearing, ripping, and irony in the entertainment industry. The people who watched it were really irritated.
Turning off those Weibo, Zhao Haitong just thought of the kitchen to urge another lunch, when he saw the Weibo app on his mobile phone send him a push message.
For this kind of news that is spent on pushing, generally speaking, there are real materials, otherwise the blogger will not be willing to pay the promotion fee.
Of course, knowing is one thing, and not seeing is another.
Zhao Haitong stretched out his hand to turn off his phone, but he glanced at the title of Weibo.
"Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone?" Zhao Haitong glanced at his phone in surprise.
Fantasy novels, of course Zhao Haitong knows, due to the popularity of online novels, there has also been a boom in the entertainment industry in the past two years of adapting online novels into film and television dramas, with themes ranging from fantasy cultivation to digging graves and robbing graves. While the subject matter is novel, the adapted film and television drama will have fans of the original author of the original novel as the basis for ratings at the beginning, so the literary carrier of online novels is also very topical in the entertainment industry.
It's just that online novels aren't all serialized on novel websites? How can it appear on Weibo promotion?
At this time, a notification sound also came from the computer in front of Zhao Haitong, which was also a unique prompt sound effect for Weibo promotion.
Scratching his head, Zhao Haitong sat back in front of the computer, clicked the mouse a few times, and jumped directly to the promoted blog content.
Seeing this Weibo, Zhao Haitong saw the beginning of the article at first glance.
"Chapter 1, The Boy Who Never Died"
"Mr. and Mrs. Dursley, who live at 4 Privet Road, always proudly say that they are unorthodox people......
Zhao Haitong said "Huh", I didn't expect that this was really a fantasy novel.
A magical novel serialized in the form of a long-form blog on Weibo? Interesting.
Zhao Haitong became a little interested in this novel.
"The cat is reading the sign on Privet Road at this time, no, it's looking at the sign; Cats can't read maps or signs. Mr. Dursley took his nerve and chased the cat away from his mind. He drove into town, thinking along the way that he hoped he would get an order for a large number of rigs today. β
He did not see the flocks of owls flying in broad daylight, but the crowds in the street did; They were dumbfounded, pointing, and staring at the owls as they skimmed overhead, one by one. Most of them never see an owl even at night. β
He found what he was looking for in his pocket, which looked like a silver lighter. He flicked it away, held it high, and with a click, the nearest street lamp went out with a pop. He struck againβand the second light went out. He hit the lights out twelve times, and there were only two small spots of light left in the distance on the whole street, the two eyes of the cat that was watching him. β
"For eleven years, I've been trying to convince people to call him by his first name: Lord Voldemort."
Ten minutes later, Liu Xiaoya pushed open the door of the study and shouted to Zhao Haitong: "Haitong, it's time to eat." β
Zhao Haitong shook his whole body and raised his head to look at Liu Xiaoya. Seeing the apron on Liu Xiaoya's body, Zhao Haitong came back to his senses, nodded, put down the potato chips in his hand that had not been touched for ten minutes, stood up and followed Liu Xiaoya to the living room to eat.
Zhao Haitong was already so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, and the dishes on the table were his favorite dishes, but now Zhao Haitong had no appetite at all, chewing on the dishes made by his wife in his mouth, and thinking of the silver-haired and silver-bearded magician who took a silver lighter and extinguished twelve street lamps, Albus Dun Brido.
"Haitong, why don't you eat it?" Liu Xiaoya looked at her husband suspiciously, facing her favorite meal, she had such an expression, could it be that her craftsmanship had regressed? Impossible.
"Huh? Yes! Ah, eat, I'm eating. Zhao Haitong came back to his senses, nodded busily, put vegetables into his bowl, served the vegetable soup with a spoon, and then said to Liu Xiaoya with a plate full of ham: "I'll go to the study to eat." After speaking, Zhao Haitong ran to the study with a bowl of rice and a bowl of "da-da-da".
"Hey......" Liu Xiaoya stretched out her hand to stop but didn't stop it, so she could only watch Zhao Haitong take away her favorite ham meat.
