Chapter 587: National Treasure-level Writer

When Xiao Fei came out of Cao Zizheng's house, it was already past 8 o'clock in the evening.

He drank a little wine, his brain was very excited, and he walked slowly alone. Overall, he was satisfied with the process and the result of meeting Ma Yueran tonight.

If his two most important books in Swedish were published, they would have planted two seeds in the Nobel Prize for Literature.

In time, these two seeds, which seem insignificant now, will be able to take root and even grow into giant trees!

Xiao Fei firmly believes that he will be able to win the world's reputation as quickly as possible.

At that time, the Nobel Prize in Literature may be a matter of time for him. The greater the momentum he builds, the more prestige he gains, and the more likely he is to win the Nobel Prize.

Now, the most important thing is the market performance of the English version of "Brothers" after it was published in the United States.

If the performance is very hot, then it can be regarded as occupying an important place in the world's largest book publishing market.

Xiao Fei has carefully studied the materials of the best-selling authors in American history.

He found that as long as these writers don't make big mistakes, after a book becomes popular, they can often continue to be popular and sell well, and not only that, but they can also radiate from the United States to the world, and the book will sell well all over the world.

Hot sales in the U.S. can often reach readers in most of the world's countries.

Without him, because the United States is the most powerful and developed, and what Americans like, it must be a good thing! This world is not only for Chinese to worship foreign countries.

Therefore, Xiao Fei attaches great importance to the market performance of the English version of "Brothers".

Before the Chinese New Year, he received a message from his brother's translator, Andrew. Jones's transatlantic call. He was told that "Brothers" had been translated and proofread. It has been handed over to Random House.

Andrew. Jones said Langdon was still happy with the manuscript. It is estimated that the book may be published in April this year at the latest.

Since then, Xiao Fei's attention has been on the other side of the ocean.

Random House's side is Andrew Brown. After Jones's phone call, he also contacted Xiao Fei and informed him about the publishing process of "Brothers".

On that phone call, Langdon's people told Mr. Xiao that the promotion of "Brothers" was likely to start with news coverage.

Xiao Fei didn't expect that such a powerful piece of news would be published in the New York Times so soon.

This kind of news should be of interest to the American people, right?

Think about it just now. At the dinner table, after Cao Zizheng drank some wine, he proudly said to himself that he was also called winning glory for the country......

Cao Zizheng reacted like this, but what about ordinary citizens?

After reading this news, will you think of yourself as a national hero?

It's hilarious to think about.

It turns out that posting a large piece of news on New York Times is called winning glory for the country.

So what kind of reaction will the Chinese people have when their books sell well in the United States?

The news on the New York Times is just the beginning!

Xiao Fei firmly believes that he will definitely be able to conquer the arrogant American people. Let them all like the books they wrote, even if "Brothers" is not satisfactory, they still have the Twilight series of novels in their hands.

……

Also on the eighth day of the first lunar month, refer to the news newspaper.

An editor who was looking at New York slapped the table happily and said, "Awesome! Xiao Fei actually made a full page of news on New York Times! ”

Colleagues turned their heads to ask.

"What's that?"

"Which Xiao Fei is it? The young writer who wrote "Life and Death Fatigue"? ”

"I'll see."

Soon. This version of the advertisement was circulated in the editorial department.

Many people were surprised when they saw it: Is this a change of character in Americans? To give such a high evaluation to a Chinese writer?

With the rise of Greater China, newspapers in the United States have gradually published more and more news about China, and important current political news and major events in the country have also attracted the attention of newspapers such as New York Times and the Washington Times. It's not uncommon to come up with a page or two.

However, such a large edition is specifically aimed at a certain person. Apart from the country's leaders, there are really few other people who have this opportunity.

So. After reading the report, the leader of the reference news newspaper thought that the report was of great significance and could be translated and put in tomorrow's newspaper.

New York Times is a wide-open newspaper, and this edition of the news is translated into Chinese, but the number of words is quite large, and one edition cannot be put down at all.

It was still compressed, and it was reluctantly put on the cultural news section.

Then, on the reference news of the ninth day of the new year, the news of "China has produced a magical young writer, and the total sales of works in his 20s have exceeded 10 million copies" was published.

Reference News is the digest newspaper with the largest circulation in China.

At its peak, circulation and retail sales combined exceeded 5 million copies, and the impact was quite impressive.

Moreover, this newspaper radiates all over the country.

The new newspaper was printed all over the country and went to market very quickly.

So, on the ninth day of the first lunar month, many Chinese people saw this report from New York Times, so people were boiling.

"Oh my God! Xiao Fei is really good, crooked nuts actually value him so much. ”

"It's New York! A full-page news is all about Xiao Fei, I guess no one in the cultural circle in China has ever received such a grand report from New York, right? ”

"What's the rhythm of this? Could it be that Xiao Fei, after conquering the Chinese readers, will also conquer the American people? ”

"A genius writer with sales of more than 10 million, Xiao Fei's works are estimated to have a total sales of more than 20 million now, right?"

"Yes! Not to mention anything else, just how many copies of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" have been sold. ”

"This is the glory of the Chinese cultural community!"

"Xiao Fei has won glory for our country!"

So, after the originally peaceful festival, it suddenly boiled again. Many people watched the news and were so excited that their eyes were red.

Of course, these people are all fans of Xiao Fei.

"Xiao Fei, good job!"

"Our Xiao Fei is going to go out of the country and go global!"

"With this news at the bottom, Xiao Fei's English version of "Brothers" will definitely be a big hit in the United States again, I'm so proud!"

In the literary world, many writers were so envious that after reading this report, their eyes were red with envy.

After writing so much about this report, the final focus actually fell on the publication of the English version of Xiao Fei's "Brothers".

Everyone immediately knew what was going on: this was definitely the promotion work of the publishing house that Xiao Fei cooperated with before the new book went on sale.

What a luxury! He even made a full-page news in New York Times.

And New York Times actually cooperated...... It's a bit confusing! With such a large report on the New York Times, it is estimated that Xiao Fei's English version of "Brothers" can sell more copies!

For Xiao Fei, the news brought about another unexpected result: the relevant departments gave him a national first-class writer's certificate a few days later.

However, almost everyone didn't expect that in early March of 99, an explosive news surrounding Xiao Fei happened to Xiao Fei again. (To be continued.) )
