Chapter 53: Yang Shen, a super bestseller
Yang Jian's choice of which project to compete for the country is a very important thing for "The Strongest Brain" and the audience. Because which event Yang Jian chooses means that the Chinese brain team will win in the international competition of this event!
"I...
Yang Jian was a little hesitant because he was thinking about it.
"Rubik's Cube!"
"Rubik's Cube!"
The audience suddenly shouted in unison. Obviously, in terms of personal preference, the audience hopes that Yang Jian will choose the project of "Blind Twisting the Rubik's Cube". Because in this way, they can let the gringos also see Yang Jian's miraculous "ten fingers are like illusions, and the Rubik's cube is like a method".
In the background of the strongest brain, Zheng Caiqian, Li Tianmu, Zhou Da and others did not leave, but waited together. When Lan Chang asked Yang Jian which project to choose, the five of them were nervous, afraid that Yang Jian would choose their own project, because that would mean that they would not be able to participate in the World Brain Championship.
And when they heard the shouts of the audience, the faces of several people changed again.
Zheng Caiqian and Li Tianmu were all relieved, while Zhou Da's face became quite ugly.
Zhou Da thinks that he has already lost face if he wants to abuse Yang Jian before and is not abused, and he is still thick-skinned when he stays in the background. Now he has to be replaced by Yang Jian and completely leave the stage of "The Strongest Brain", how can he, the former king of brainpower, be embarrassed?
At this moment, Zhou Da's heart rose to his throat, his fists were clenched, and his muscles were jumping.
He could think with his toes that in this case, Yang Jian would definitely follow the audience's call and choose to "blindly twist the Rubik's Cube". In this way, he will take revenge on the bond he formed with him at halftime.
Zheng Caiqian and the four of them looked at Zhou Da, and they also looked sympathetic and pitiful. They also heard what Zhou Da and Yang Jian said at halftime, and they also decided that Yang Jian would not let go of this opportunity to hit Zhou Da.
However, when Yang Jian spoke on stage, everyone realized that they were wrong.
"I... I have to say I'm sorry." Yang Jian had an apologetic look on his face, "I'm not going to join the Huaguo Brain Team, so I won't go out for the country." In addition, I think that the five team members I challenged before are very good, and with them, Huaguo has won the battle. ”
Yang Jian's words are neither long nor short, but they are really unexpected and shocking.
"How could he have given up?" Zheng Caiqian and others in the background were surprised and couldn't believe it.
Zhou Da was even more stunned on the spot, he was still nervous about being replaced by Yang Jian from the stage, but he didn't think that Yang Jian didn't want to stay on this stage at all. It made him feel like a clown in his previous actions and thoughts.
Liao Mingxiang, who had been watching backstage, also said to Li Na beside him: "I can afford to take it and put it down, this young man is really not simple." It's just that he left the strongest brain, which is a big loss for us. ”
When Li Na thought about Yang Jian, stars appeared in her eyes, and she said, "When I first met Yang Jian, I felt that he was different from ordinary boys. ”
Finding that Li Na didn't grasp the point of his words, Liao Mingxiang turned his head to look at Li Na, and when he saw that she looked like a nymphomaniac, he couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.
Huaisang.
Ouyang Si's family didn't expect Yang Jian to give up, and felt that Yang Jian was a little stupid, even Yang Yue was the same. But Yang Yuan and Cai Ning were very satisfied with Yang Jian's choice, and felt that this was the best, and everything was too much.
However, the audience at the scene and in front of other TV sets did not understand it so well. Hearing Yang Jian say that he was leaving the strongest brain, everyone was stunned at first, and then they all shouted.
"Don't go, join the Huaguo Brain Team!"
"Why, is there anything more important than winning glory for the country?"
"Yang Jian, we all support you, please don't go!"
“・・・”
In the face of the sound of retention at the scene, Yang Jian was really moved, because these people did not support him because of any interests, but simply liked him. This made him understand a sentence, fans, are the purest and loveliest group of people in the world. However, he really didn't want to stay on the strongest brain.
Yang Jianlai's strongest brain is to earn points and complete system tasks, not because of real interest. And with the two abilities of "Unforgettable" and "Brainstorming", there is no point in him participating in the strongest brain competition, except for projects like "Blind Twisting the Rubik's Cube" that can give him a little pressure, everything else is like playing. So, now that his goal has been achieved, it's time to go.
If possible, do what you really want to do, do what you really are really interested in.
Yang Jian has always thought so.
However, the audience still needs to explain it well.
"I am very touched by everyone's retention, and I am very happy to be able to meet you on the stage of the strongest brain. However, I have other things to do, so please understand. Please also believe that the current 12 members, they are all very good, enough to lead the Huaguo Brain Team to victory. Thank you! ”
After some heartfelt words, some of the audience's grievances were finally resolved, and at the end of this episode, Yang Jian really left "The Strongest Brain".
Although he left "The Strongest Brain", Yang Jian did not leave the magic capital. Because Cardamom was in charge of the publishing contract of "Phantom City", he agreed to meet and discuss with Yang Jian on Sunday, the day after the end of "The Strongest Brain".
The place of the meeting was in a rather atmospheric café, and to be honest, it was the first time for Yang Jian to go to such an upscale place. However, he is now worth hundreds of thousands, and he will not lack confidence; And after experiencing the big scene of the strongest brain stage, Yang Jian is much calmer about people and things.
The person who came was a beautiful woman who looked twenty-five or sixteen, with a pair of white-framed glasses, and Yang Jian was slightly stunned when they met, and then recognized the other party.
"Anxi? Are you An Xi who wrote "Red Dancing Shoes"? ”
The reason why Yang Jian is like this is because he has seen Anxi's information on the Internet and knows that she is a well-known female writer who writes essays and short stories that are very popular with young readers. One of the most famous is the short story, "The Red Dancing Shoes".
An Xi was even more surprised to see Yang Jian, although she didn't read "The Strongest Brain" much, but she also browsed some information when she went online, and knew that there was a brain superman in this issue of "The Strongest Brain", called Yang Jian. Among them, the video of Yang Jian's "blind twisting the Rubik's Cube" was exploded overnight, because the miraculous "Ten Fingers Like a Fantasy, Rubik's Cube Like a Method" was called Yang Shen by some fans. But An Xi never thought that Yang Jian from "The Strongest Brain" would be the same person as Yang Jian who wrote "Phantom City".
"Yes, I'm Anxi. You're Yang Jian, right? I didn't expect it to be you! After speaking, probably because he felt that his words were not clear, An Xi explained: "The video of your 'blind twisting the Rubik's Cube' has been exploded on the Internet, and netizens call you Yang Shen!" ”
Hearing An Xi's words, Yang Jian couldn't help but smile.
"The Strongest Brain" is one of the most popular variety shows, and there are many audiences, so it can be said that as long as you can go on the stage, whether you succeed in the challenge or not, you will leave a name on the Internet. And now, Yang Jian not only won five consecutive battles, but also defeated Zhou Da, the most popular Rubik's Cube madman before, in the last battle. The defeat is not an ordinary defeat, but the most commendable counterattack, and the performance of the Rubik's Cube in the hand as if it was a magic in the game is even more shocking and unforgettable.
If it's not popular, then there's no reason.
It can be said that Yang Jian has many fans just by blindly twisting the Rubik's Cube.
As for the title of Yang Shen, it is also for fans to show their respect and admiration for him. On the stage of "The Strongest Brain", he has undoubtedly become a legendary god, and no one can surpass him.
When Yang Jian laughed, An Xi said again: "By the way, why don't you know how to promote "Phantom City" on the strongest brain?" That way your book will sell quite scary in the future, and it won't necessarily become a super bestseller. ”
"Anxi, well, if you don't mind, I'll call you Sister An." Yang Jian bowed slightly, "I think even if it is not promoted on the strongest brain, the book "Phantom City" will become a super bestseller." ”
Now that paper publishing is starting to slump, the average book can sell 100,000 copies in the first year, which is a bestseller, and selling 1 million copies is a super bestseller. Yang Jian knew that "Phantom City" sold more than one million copies in that time and space on the earth.
An Xi said: "The emergence of a super bestseller is not only as simple as good content, but also accurate market research and positioning, as well as good publicity planning. However, it is already a sure thing that "Phantom City" will become a bestseller, after all, you have accumulated huge popularity on cardamom before. ”
Yang Jian smiled, not denying that what An Xi said was right.
An Xi took out a contract from his bag, handed it to Yang Jian, and said, "This is a publishing contract, you can take a look, if there is any problem, just raise it." The reason why the publisher asked me to contact you is because I want everything to be discussed. ”
Yang Jian took the contract and looked at it, and it was very fast.
Royalty sharing is the most important, the highest royalty among the average author is only 12%, and the lowest is only 7%, but the royalty share of "Phantom City" is set at 10%, which is very high. Then there are some other publishing details, which are not clarified, and in the end it is easy to rip off when something goes wrong.
At this time, An Xi said: "In view of the great potential of "Phantom City", the publishing house is ready to invest 500,000 yuan to promote and build momentum for it in its various newspapers, magazines, and even online platforms. Now, of course, if you have a way to go back to the strongest brain to promote "Phantom City", I can consider convincing the publisher to return a part of the publicity fee to you. ”
An Xi thought that Yang Jian, a young man who was no more than ten **, would inevitably be tempted in the face of hundreds of thousands of money, but he didn't think that Yang Jian didn't think about it, so he shook his head and said, "No need." ”
Yang Jian's choice puzzled An Xi, she lifted her glasses and asked, "Why?" ”
