A week after its release, The Hunger Games officially topped the New York Times bestseller list. The New York Times commented: "This is a good book with deep thoughts, but no dullness. The beauty of it lies in the fact that under a seemingly ethereal system, it shows the most real light of human nature. ”

At the top of Publishers' Weekly's bestseller list for the same period was The Hunger Games, and the magazine's review of the book was: "For a variety of reasons, the book set an almost impossible first week record." But I would say that it definitely deserves it. ”

The Wall Street Journal commented: "After reading The Hunger Games, I really can't believe that this was actually written by a 14-year-old Chinese teenager. The characters of the whole book are unusually full, the emotional development turns are real, and the storyline is unexpected and unconventional. I have to admit that I was completely blown away. ”

It was a week for The Hunger Games, which swept the bestseller charts and set a nearly unbeatable first-week sales record.

The book was highly regarded by major magazines. The discussion of this book among the people is even more enthusiastic.

"Was this book really written by a 14-year-old boy? Why do I feel that the depth of my thoughts is not as deep as his? At the largest forum in the United States, a reader wrote.

Someone replied soon after: "The same landlord, I can't keep up, this story setting is simply amazing!" ”

A female reader commented, "I think I'm going crazy, why did Katniss choose Peetta, didn't she love Gail?" Why is this happening, I'm going crazy. ”

"Is Pita super handsome? Support Peeta! Soon Pitta's fans came out to refute it. In an instant, the entire post became a battlefield for countless female fans to discuss their views on love.

Discussions like this, posts like this are happening all over the United States, all kinds of places, every second of the hour.

The ** of the review appeared on the eighth day of the release of The Hunger Games. A comment from someone who didn't expect it from everyone made a comment that officially brought this storm of comments to its apex.

That morning, a book review by thriller Stephen King appeared in The New York Times.

"I've said before that The Hunger Games is probably going to be the scariest thing of the year. It turns out I guessed right. Although this thriller is completely different from what I originally envisioned. ”

"To be honest, I was blown away by the results of this book. And the content of this book is even more shocking and unimaginable. I've been reading this book for the past few days, and I can't stop at all. I love this book, I have no denying it. I have to say that this is a good book that is very readable and interesting, but not shallow at all. It has a breathtaking concept, a breathtaking imagination. Unforgettable love. and shocking real humanity. I recommend this book five stars, and I think it should be one of the best books of the year that should not be missed. ”

And are you also impatient for the rest of the book? What I must tell you is that this ending of this book is entirely about leaving suspense for the next one. As far as I know, the book has three parts in the author's conception, of which the second part is also completed. It's just that the question now is, when will Bantam Press get the second part of this book to everyone? Let's look forward to it together! ”

Stephen King is one of America's most successful thrillers, and his readership is huge. And his appeal is unquestionable. At this moment, he recommended a book so sincerely, and suddenly countless book fans joined the reading tide of "The Hunger Games".

The popularity of "The Hunger Games" continues unabated, and countless Americans know Chen Xueqian, a genius 14-year-old Chinese teenager. He has been mentioned countless times. It seems to be shrouded in a veil of mystery, and even China, a somewhat unfamiliar country for Americans, has a different perception in their perceptions.

It was a feast of reviews, but all of them were just icing on the cake for the book's sales. Because of a series of previous events, the sales of "The Hunger Games" have already exceeded 1 million copies in the first week. This was a horrific first-week sales that few rivals even in the entire history of American publishing.

And this achievement, coupled with Chen Xueqian's 14-year-old Chinese status bonus, the surprise of this combination is completely scary.

Anyone who reads this book will be unbelievable, this is really a book written by a 14-year-old Chinese teenager.

And the ironclad facts are irrefutable. This kind of cognition makes countless fellow authors feel powerless for a while, and they feel that they have really lived to dogs over the years.

The United States is a country that has never lacked young geniuses, and the people here are far more receptive to the news that subverts perceptions than other countries.

Therefore, this hunger storm set off by Chen Xueqian, a 14-year-old boy, although Americans are surprised by Chen Xueqian's age, they still respect the work itself.

And when the news that "The Hunger Games" dominated the major bestseller lists in the United States came back to China, passers-by in China suddenly felt that their worldview had been shattered. They could hear their jaws hitting the ground.

Countless netizens who had mocked Chen Xueqian on Tianya before had long disappeared at this time.

The posts that used to attack Chen Xueqian one by one were full of gunpowder, but now they have been turned out, and no matter how provocative the building director and netizens are, they don't want to come out again.

But in fact, there were very few netizens who were optimistic about Chen Xueqian on Tianya before. This completely unexpected result is tantamount to a cognitive earthquake for all Chinese netizens. Let everyone have a new understanding of the concept of genius.

During this time, the most popular sentence on the Internet was: "Do you think you are Chen Xueqian?" ”

As for the previous impersonation case, it was no longer being mentioned at this time. That seems like a stupid joke in the middle of now.

"The Hunger Games" also caused a gust of wind in China, but unlike in the United States, the storm here is entirely due to Chen Xueqian's identity.

After the incident spread back to China for some time, the mainstream media finally began to report the news.

But at this time, an unexpected problem was put in front of everyone.

Countless media, countless netizens, talking to Chen Xueqian in Jinling TV's "Century Wind" program, but they don't know who the other party is and where they come from?

They know Chen Xueqian's appearance and age, but they don't know where Chen Xueqian comes from and what his identity is.

At this time, China did not have the pervasive network coverage of later generations, and it was not possible to do human flesh searches. For a while, in the face of countless curious audiences in China, the media did not know how to explain the origin of this person.

Chen Xueqian is like a dragon that sees the head but does not see the tail, and he is shocked in front of the world. I can't find the slightest clue.

In fact, this matter is not surprising, in the previous life, there were often fugitives who were wanted for more than ten years, and they set up a stall in a certain city incognito to live a good life, but the powerful state organs were stunned and could not find the news of the other party.

The village where Chen Xueqian lives is a place where news is relatively closed.

For example, in his previous life, Chen Xueqian had heard of Han Han and his "Triple Gate" when he was in junior high school, but Chen Xueqian never knew what the other party looked like. Their TV can only search a few channels, such as: Central Channel, Huangcheng Channel, such channels. Not even Jinlingtai can be received.

Therefore, when the whole country was stirred up by Chen Xueqian, the parties were taking the final exam normally without realizing it.

Regarding the sales of "The Hunger Games", even the "Mu Jiahe case" Chen Xueqian listened to Jack sue him on the phone.

At that time, after listening to Jack's words, Chen Xueqian just wanted to say one sentence in his heart: Is this okay?

This development of God, which was completely beyond his expectations, had completely exceeded his expectations. Even if he was reborn a few more times, he would never have imagined that such a thing would happen.

Later, after Mu Jiahe woke up, after what he said in the interview was relayed to him by Jack with excitement, Chen Xueqian unconsciously felt a burst of gratitude to this girl he had never met.

After thinking for a long time, Chen Xueqian asked Bai Feifei to sign the manuscript of "The Hunger Games" in his hand with his name and blessings, and sent it to the girl.

International mail is very inefficient, and when Mu Jiahe, who is far away in San Francisco, USA, receives this package with Chen Xueqian's gratitude, it is already two weeks later.

When Mu Jiahe opened the package with a puzzled face, it was a notebook with a brown paper cover. Gently flip it open, and inside is densely written words with a black ink pen. Mu Jiahe inexplicably felt that every word seemed to be serious, and occasionally there were a few pauses, as if she could see the person writing thinking.

It was a handwritten "The Hunger Games", looking at the signature, it was three Chinese characters - Chen Xueqian!

Mu Jiahe had determined almost instantly that this was the author's own handwriting of his favorite book. And this handwritten book with a brown paper cover is most likely the first draft of "The Hunger Games".

Holding this unexpected gift for a while, Mu Jiahe cried with joy.

On the cover of the brown paper, there is a line of Chinese, Chinese is not very good Mu Jiahe knows, it reads: "Thank you for having you, may you have a good time!" ”――
