Chapter 234: Making a Lot of Money
You can't delay filming because of this incident, and looking at Zeng Xiaoxian like that, it's really a little scary, as if he will fall down at any time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Zeng Xiaoxian, who returned to the crew, did not immediately enter the filming state, but rested for a day and a night, counting that he had not closed his eyes well for seven days, and even if he was really a monster, he couldn't hold it even if he was a monster for seven days, in fact, it should not mean that he returned to the crew to rest, but fell asleep on the plane, and then returned to the crew in a daze and half asleep.
If it weren't for Fang Qing by his side, Hu Yifei would not have let Zeng Xiaoxian leave in such a state.
May was fleeting, and in just one month, within a month, 50 million copies of the new foreign language edition of "New Moon" on the market were sold out, and countless booksellers were in a hurry, urging them to publish again and again.
The last time I was in "Twilight", it took a few months to sell this amount, so it seems that it is very possible for "New Moon" to break 100 million in a single volume in the world.
It's just that at the beginning, I didn't know how much "New Moon" could sell, although I made certain preparations, but the profits couldn't catch up with the changes, and the good sales of "New Moon" still surprised everyone.
And the sales of "Zhu Xian" are not inferior, since the time since the launch, the newly printed 20 million copies have been snapped up by the long-awaited book fans, and there are still many book fans who have not bought the book, are asking when the next batch of books can come up, but fortunately, there is a month in the night and early to prepare for the sale, and at the same time, the order to work overtime to rush printing.
And the sales of the traditional Chinese version in Hong Kong and Taiwan are also very good, and now the total has exceeded 10 million copies.
Of course, the most surprising thing is that "Zhu Xian" has been sold in South Korea and Japan, and the sales of the new five bound sets have reached more than 100 million copies in total, that is, 20 million sets have been sold, of which 5 million sets have been sold in South Korea and 15 million sets have been sold in Japan, directly bringing a net profit of 120 million US dollars to the publishing house.
Together with sales elsewhere, the sale of the two new books brought Tsang a net profit of $250 million.
Let the publishing house, which has always been in the downstream position in Zeng Xiaoxian's several industries, surpass Zeng Xiaoxian's entertainment industry to reach the largest scale in one fell swoop, and all talents suddenly appeared, and the original publishing industry is also very promising.
And it's not generally promising, of course, it depends on what kind of book it is, not all books can sell so well.
The "Twilight" series has been a huge success, although "Twilight" has always been used to compare with "Magic Man", and the facts have proved that the "Twilight" series does have the ability to compare with the "Magic Man" series, and even the sales are far better than the "Magic Man" series, but in fact, compared to the "Magic Man" series, the "Twilight" series has a congenital disadvantage, that is, Twilight is basically a strong special tutoring level, that is, the sensitivity to watch with parents under the age of eighteen.
Whether it is Mel in the previous life or Zeng Xiaoxian in this life, although he is already very careful not to touch such a sensitive angle, and has tried his best to de-adult and gore, but in the end, he was still judged to be a tutor, which in fact cut off a large number of underage readers.
Don't underestimate the purchasing power of underage readers, the purchasing power of underage readers in Europe and the United States is far greater than many people imagine, this is a market that Zeng Xiaoxian was forced to give up, and the "Magician" series is completely different.
From the beginning, the book was intended to be a modern fairy tale for children, and the author only wrote this book for his own children, although it turned out that readers of "Magic Man" were not only accepted by children, but also many adults, but this did not hinder the popularity of "Magic Man" among children.
So in this is a problem that has been entangled in "Twilight" for a long time, "Magic Man" is already far ahead, and among the early adults, "Twilight" is not necessarily more acceptable than "Magic Man", and in such an unfavorable situation, "Twilight" is still the latecomer to beat "Magic Man".
And in terms of changing it into a movie, "Twilight" has also completely exploded any "Magic Man" movie, and in this bestseller competition, it is obvious that the "Twilight" series has the right advantage.
It was sweet at first, but soon I couldn't hold back my tears when I saw Edward leave Bella, and then Bella fell into the darkest time.
Seeing that she would put herself in danger in order to hear advice like Edward's advice to her. Later, Bella went to Italy at all costs to save Edward, and that part was really thrilling, and my friends and I watched it in one breath before we could sleep! However, after reading this book, I didn't like Jacob, and I always felt as if he was taking advantage of it, although the other two were responsible, which caused Bella to start half-heartedly.
I also like Alice more and more, she is really kind and cute! A book review by a netizen on Sina.com.
The series has been published in two volumes, both with matte black covers, splashed in bright crimson, quite eye-catching: "Twilight" and "New Moon", Zeng Xiaoxian, a young writer who is popular among teenagers, tells the story of an ordinary girl, okay? She's still a human love story anyway: a werewolf teenager named Jacob Black is courting her.
A fierce offensive is launched against her, and at the same time, she falls in love with the maddening, charismatic American Norsfaratu Edward, Zeng Xiaoxian uses this adolescent emotional confusion and confusing emotional entanglement to constantly play tricks on the reader's curiosity, making them laugh and love it! USA Today
Edward sat next to Bella in biology class, and he stared at her angrily, Bella was bewildered, uneasy, and at the same time already infatuated with Edward, not knowing that it was the smell of her own blood that intoxicated Edward, almost to the point of destroying everything. All he could do was not eat her, but he longed for Bella for more than just a night of drinking.
A group of "good" vampires vow to abide by the precepts of not sucking human blood, and Edward is hungry for Bella to always be by his side.
But will his instincts succumb to lust and strictly obey the precepts? "He looks at you like you're something to eat."
A second-year student named Mike Jealous of Edward had told Bella earlier, but before that, Bella had already made a choice, and after you had dated a vampire, how immature the human boys seemed to become. Amazon Books USA.
Just like the title of the book, "New Moon" is darker than "Twilight", and the love between the hero and heroine has also fallen into a kind of love triangle love abyss, the Edward family's desire for Bella's blood, Edward's unconscious estrangement from Bella, Jacob's intervention, the feud between werewolves and vampires, this scene has appeared in front of our eyes as the plot of "New Moon" unfolds, making us have to worry about the fate of two, maybe three protagonists, and how will all this unfold, It all depends on how our people from the East have built this world full of fantasy, and what we are looking forward to is when "New Moon" will be put on the screen, and whether it will be able to continue or even break the legend of "Twilight" after it is put on the screen?

Although "Zhu Xian" is still only in the Greater China China Zone, its good sales have made everyone have to be amazed.
"I don't agree with the book "Zhu Xian" in terms of the speed of update, but I admire the author's polish between the words and sentences of this book, and I have some opinions on the main line, so it is necessary to explain here.
In my personal opinion, the main line of the book "Zhu Xian" is "Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs."
This sentence is excerpted from the fifth chapter of Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching": "Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs; The author expounded to the majority of readers with his own perception of life and all things, and the experience of Zhang Xiaofan, an ordinary character who finally became a saint after all kinds of hardships: "Heaven and earth treat everything equally, and saints should also treat every person equally. It also illustrates the truth that "the avenue is invisible and all things are equal".
Although this book has not been completed, I personally think that the author of "Zhu Xian" expressed the author's idea of this book with his title and personal name at the beginning.
Among them, "Zhu Xian Zhang Xiaofan" and "Lin Zhenyu" are the author's original ideas, and the meaning of "Zhu Xian" is: Immortals have always been in the minds of the Chinese from ancient times to the present: the embodiment of 16 justice, and this book is to criticize the bourgeoisie such as the gods and immortals who live high above the heads of the broad masses of the people and treat ordinary people with the attitude of high-ranking people.
The meaning of "Zhang Xiaofan Lin Jingyu" is more obvious, with two characters who have been the difference between heaven and earth from the beginning, clarifying that different characters have the same desire, hoping that one day they can be high above and become a god in people's hearts.
Here, the author severely criticizes the deep-rooted class concept in people's minds, and further illustrates that socialism is only an unattainable dream. This post from the book review of "Zhu Xian", as soon as it came out, was immediately put on top by the deputy moderator, and the reply post went through more than 10,000 times, most of which agreed with this statement, and some criticized this statement.
Zeng Xiaoxian once inadvertently visited the book review area and appeared in this post and immediately sweated, this person's idea is indeed very river crab, completely in line with socialist dialectics, although he doesn't know what kind of mentality Xiao Ding had when he wrote "Zhu Xian", but as far as the mentality of an Internet author is concerned, it seems that writing a book is writing a book, and there is no particularly profound ideological realm as many people imagine.
If Xiao Ding really has this ideological awareness, then he is really a modern version of Lu Xun, and this book review is too capable and too spoofed.
This reminded Zeng Xiaoxian of a crying and laughing news that he had seen in his previous life, saying that a school gave a topic, saying that some of the lyrics in "Qili Xiang" written by Taiwanese lyricist Fang Wenshan expressed what kind of thoughts and feelings the author had, and what he sang.
Later, someone asked Fang Wenshan himself about this matter, but what he got was that it was simply written casually, and there was no thought or anything, which was a nonsense answer.
It seems that such things can only happen in China, and it is necessary to put some ideological consciousness on those writers, as if it is not so impossible to highlight their greatness.
However, Zeng Xiaoxian's main mind now is on filming "Sword and Fairy", after all, the new book is in charge of night and moon, Zeng Xiaoxian plays Tang Yu Xiaobao, originally Tang Yu Xiaobao was just passing by to play soy sauce.
Now the role has been strengthened, promoted to the level of the so-called second actor, and even after Zeng Xiaoxian's participation, the role has been strengthened again, from this aspect, the outside world's abandonment is not groundless, but Zeng Xiaoxian doesn't care about this, as long as he is filming, after all, he is not a director now, what do you do so much.
Because of Zeng Xiaoxian's status as the first brother in the company, he can naturally get special care, and a considerable part of the crew's resources are inclined to Zeng Xiaoxian.
Zeng Xiaoxian was filming almost day and night, and finally completed the shooting in late May, almost didn't tire Zeng Xiaoxian down, everyone else can take turns to rest, only he can't, he must continue to shoot as the protagonist of the shooting, and it is precisely because of Zeng Xiaoxian's crazy hard work that the scenes that originally took a few months to complete all the filming in less than 20 days.
After finishing the shooting, Zeng Xiaoxian still rested in Hengdian for a day, he was too tired.
For Hengdian, Zeng Xiaoxian is too familiar, after all, the four of them stayed here for a year ago, although the owner of the body at that time was not him, but he had completely received the memory, so there was no problem in saying so.
But three years have passed, the old faces have disappeared, Hengdian has a large number of people coming every year, but there are a large number of people leaving, after all, only a few are really from the Hengdian extras, the others are all in the world after staying for a while, only a very small number of Hengpiao can endure the loneliness, hard work and exhaustion, and can stay.
Most people only stay for a year and then leave, so although there are familiar faces of Zeng Xiaoxian in this new drift, there are more fresh young people who are eager for the road of acting.
I just don't know how many of these people have the ability to stand out in this highly competitive entertainment industry!
