Chapter 208: Head to Head

Link's one of the threats proves that he has not broken his promise, for the book "Twilight", although Link does not know what the original book is, but he is also confident that this "vampire story" is perfectly presented.

Many people knew that Link was writing a book for a long time, but it was only a joke.

For this newest billionaire in the United States, many people know him from the American dramas he filmed, and then filmed the movie "Eight Mile" that swept last year's Christmas schedule.

Link has a lot of aura, but he doesn't have a 'writer's aura'. People have only witnessed his filming strength, and hailed him as a rising star in the directing industry and the best dark horse director of this century.

It's just that when it comes to the novel industry, people obviously don't expect much from him.

"Can you expect a young man in his twenties with little life experience to write any good novels?"

Many people agree with this view.

Writing and filming are two completely different fields, and although they are constantly related, more directors are writing autobiographies or something at best. As for novels, so far there are very few people with academic backgrounds who have been able to write good stories.

The major media no longer choose to be silent in this incident, although Link's previous behavior of opening an online advertising platform has angered the media industry, but this time the matter has attracted considerable attention.

J.K. Rowling, a British female writer known as the 'Queen of Fantasy', is a household name in almost the entire West.

Just one Harry Potter series of novels. J.K. Rowling topped the list of the richest writers. It is estimated that her wealth has surpassed that of Queen Elizabeth II to become the richest woman in the world.

That's the kind of person you have. No one would question her strength. No one has any doubts, because the Harry Potter series is still in the top three on the list of best-selling books in the United States, and "Harry Potter 1" and "Harry Potter 2" firmly occupy the first and third places.

You must know that "Harry Potter 1" was first published in 98, and after nearly four years, it is still outrageously popular.

Especially with the release of the Harry Potter film series. It also made J.K. Rowling's wealth surge rapidly. Not only that, taking advantage of this 'Harry fever', the fantasy queen is close to launching the third installment of the Harry Potter series, "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire".

Such a prolific writing speed. It is also a testament to J.K. Rowling's strong appeal from the side.

The Washington Post was even more blunt: "As the world's greatest female author, the Harry Potter book series has sold more than 100 million copies worldwide and has been translated into more than 30 languages. Detonated a fantasy craze in more than 100 countries and regions across the country! And after two years of absence. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, the third installment in the Harry Potter series, is back in the United States, and a new fantasy feast is about to begin! ”

Everywhere J.K. Rowling went, the local media didn't hesitate to praise her, because she had already proven herself with that 'magical boy'!

And for Link's eye-catching desire to have a head-to-head confrontation with J.K. Rowling in the publishing market, such a ridiculous thing, the media will never let him go.

The day after J.K. Rowling arrived in New York, the New York Times ran a front-page headline: "The Queen of Fantasy is airborne in New York." When "Harry Potter" struck again, the dark horse director Link issued a war post. Blatantly challenge J.K. Rowling! It's best to ask the fans of the magical boy 'Harry Potter' what the end result is. ”

And the New York Times is not arguing that fans of the Harry Potter book series are definitely a huge group.

With the accumulation of popularity of the first two "Harry Potter" books, the arrival of J.K. Rowling this time has indeed triggered a grand carnival!

Although many young people are supporters of Link's remarks, they are still not optimistic.

The Harry Potter book series is not just about young people, but also about Americans of all ages, who are obsessed with J.K. Rowling's cute little boy.

Even many of Link's loyal supporters began to 'hit' him bluntly on the Internet.

As the most popular social network, Showme has attracted a large number of teenagers, and after many incidents, many of them have successfully become Link's staunch supporters.

However, this time, many people were shaken.

Netizen 'Purple Death' wrote: "I'm a fan of Link, and I like the American dramas filmed by CAA TV and its reality show. However, it has to be said that Link is a bit of a mess this time, which is self-destructing his 'undefeated' sign.

I have always firmly believed that Link is almost invincible in the world of directing, and even Spielberg has praised him. However, J.K. Rowling's strength is not something Link can compete with! She is a favorite author of novels, and the fantasy stories depicted in Harry Potter have brought me into a magical world!

Having said that, I just want to tell Link that no matter how well your book sells, I will always support you. ”

Such a tactful and intimidating content suddenly pushed Link to a position of 'worthy of sympathy'.

Many netizens wrote in the comments.

"This is true love, that's a good point, no matter how Link's new book sells, we will continue to support him."

"Support is necessary, but Link is doomed to lose, what can I do? Do you want everyone around you to buy Link's copy of "Twilight"? Forehead...... It should be the name, right? ”

"I think it's better to forget it, it's time for Link to teach him a long lesson. He always has so many hobbies, and I'm really worried that it will affect him to his future American dramas. ”

"What are you afraid of, our 30 million 'zombie fans', plus 20 million 'prison breaks', can't we still be able to beat Harry Potter?"

"Uh...... The upstairs style is commendable. It's just that...... It seems a bit too much. ”

"There are traces of brain-dead fans everywhere, brain-dead fans are really terrible, can you represent tens of millions of fans?"

"Forget it, it depends on the individual's wishes. Even if you buy a copy of "Twilight" for Link, it doesn't seem to change anything? ”

"Hey, are you mistaken? "Twilight" hasn't been released yet, are you so optimistic about Link? ”

"This ...... It's not that we don't like Link, but there's no reason to be optimistic about him. ”

"Hehe, that's not necessarily. Have you forgotten Link's name? The king of hype! Maybe Link can kill J.K. Rowling in an instant with a slight movement of his fingers? ”

"Wow, that makes sense, I'm expecting Link to kill J.K. Rowling!"

"Bullshit, Link's hype is always built on strong confidence. Whether it's the hype of The Walking Dead or Prison Break, they are excellent in their own right. But what about "Twilight"? I'm skeptical! ”

……

The discussion among netizens is still so hot, but most of them are not optimistic about Link's "Twilight", especially J.K. Rowling.

And within the CAA Media Group, many high-level executives now dare not question Link anymore. Because countless experiences have taught them that whenever a small boss is in trouble, he can always find a good road to Rome.

And this time, even Rust was not so nervous, but smiled, and when he saw Link appear, he asked with a smile: "Little boss, how are you going to hype it this time?" Did you come up with another great idea? ”

Rust's question immediately attracted the attention of many people, and the employees who were immersed in work had already pricked up their ears and looked like gossip.

Link's cheek couldn't help but jump: "Who said I'm going to hype?" Am I that kind of person? Wouldn't I have been able to win against that old woman J.K. Rowling without hype? ”

The fat man who had just come over instantly heard Link's words, his fat face wrinkled slightly, and he subconsciously said, "How can you win J.K. Rowling without hype?" In addition to hype, the little boss is left to film, right? As for the other ......"

Before Fat Jack finished speaking, he saw Link's cool eyes glancing over, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly scratched his head and laughed in embarrassment.

Lu Si also coughed a few times and said, "In that case, let's mobilize the entire company to buy a few copies of Little Boss's "Twilight". Well, it's a good effort, you can't let your little husband lose too ugly, right? ”

Link's face suddenly turned dark, but Rust shouted at the employees around him as if he hadn't seen it: "Guys, remember to go to the little boss's signing site tomorrow to buy a few copies of "Twilight", did you hear them?" ”

Many employees shouted happily: "Don't worry, it's no problem to buy ten copies, my salary is still paid." ”

"Yes, yes, everyone will buy ten copies by one person tomorrow, and no one can buy less. Anyway, it's also the debut novel of our little boss, so let's treat it as a company book. ”

"It's easy to say, the price of toilet paper has risen recently, and it's good to buy a few books to come back and make toilet readings, and you can kill two birds with one stone and contribute to environmental protection."

……

The employees of the company come and go, and suddenly Link hides his face and runs away, almost trying to fire all those bastards.

Regardless, Link's new book, The Twilight Saga, has finally completed the first printing of 1.5 million copies, which is still far less than the first edition of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, which is still 6 million copies. (To be continued......)
