Chapter 195: Phenomenal Books (Part II)

"Well, I've already bought it. It's okay, no thanks, it's all trifle. I can do it in minutes. Wang Kai began to subconsciously brag again, and then hung up the phone after chatting a few words.

This place is still some distance from the company's location, and Wang Kai, who was quite bored in the car, held the "Matrix I Hacker Mission" in his hand.

"Anyway, what haode do you have, weishenme so many people rob?"

Well, Wang Kai has now entered a mode, in fact, almost everyone has entered this mode, chattering about something that he knows can't speak, of course, the object of girls is generally plush toys.

Wang Kai doesn't like to read novels, otherwise he wouldn't be so indifferent to Su Shichen's novels, if it weren't for help, he probably wouldn't have entered the bookstore.

Although this book has been read by so many people, Wang Kai still has no desire to read it.

Wang Kai, who was idle and painful, was just like flipping and playing, muttering while flipping through his mouth, "I don't know what's so good about the novel, it's better to watch a ball game when you have that time, the ball game is passionate and enthusiastic......"

Suddenly, Wang Kai's eyes widened, as if he had seen something interesting, and then he turned back and flipped through it, and after searching for a long time, he finally found the page that he saw in a blink of an eye.

What did Wang Kai see? Let him, who is not interested in novels, be interested.

In fact, it's the illustration in the novel, the illustration of Neo dodging bullets.

In the illustration, bullets spin and hit, setting off a swirling wave of air. The sharpness of the bullet is shown to the extreme. Then the protagonist Neo was dressed in a black trench coat that was extremely handsome, and his ninety-degree waist was also handsome to dodge bullets, Wang Kai looked at this illustration for a long time. This is clearly the ultimate in pretending to be thirteen!

"This illustration is so handsome."

Handsome? Of course handsome!!

"The Matrix" won the Oscar for Best Visual that year, and it was originally top in terms of the shock of the picture, plus the picture of dodging bullets is one of the most classic scenes in the whole movie, you must know that this illustration was redrawn more than 30 times under the supervision of Su Shichen Zhang Chen redrew it more than 30 times before it passed.

Su Shichen's slogan is not to seek the most handsome, but to be more handsome.

The shock of the illustration is naturally not as shocking as the movie, but the illustration also has the benefits of illustration, and the originally very handsome picture has become more handsome under Su Shichen's special beautification. It immediately attracted Wang Kai's attention.

I found all the illustrations in the book and looked at them, and the illustrations were beautiful in comics.

"Wrong, wrong. Really wrong. Wang Kai looked completely distressed, "This Matrix should be a movie, even if it's not a movie, it's a comic, such a wonderful battle is just illustrations and text." It's so unsatisfying. ”

The fight scene designed by Yuan Baye. Chic, sharp, to paraphrase the evaluation in a certain anime, like a feather cutting through space. This kind of fight has completely shocked Wang Kai.

The illustrations are not enjoyable, so Wang Kai, a person who doesn't read novels, also tried to watch "The Matrix", "Sure enough, it's not as good as the ball game, weishenme doesn't play, hurry up!" "While watching. He muttered quietly, and then gradually the sound faded away. The whole person is immersed in the novel.

People who are immersed in the novel Shijie are in a disregard for all the voices around them, and in the terminology of martial arts novels, this is the unity of heaven and man.

Time passed in a hurry, and Wang Kai, who had been immersed in the novel Shijie, suddenly felt that he was slapped on the shoulder, waking him up from reading mode.

It turned out to be the driver, "Hey, this passenger has arrived at the station and got off." ”

Then how did Wang Kai answer?

"Everything you see is illusory," he said. ”

"What's with, what's unreal or not, this passenger has arrived at the terminal." The driver raised his voice.

"Huh?" The confused Wang Kai came back to his senses, and then looked around, like a tanuki with his tail stepped on, he immediately bounced up from his seat, and shouted in a lost voice: "Ah, how did I sit at the main station." ”

Looking down at his watch, his face turned pale, he was still three minutes late, and now even if he took a taxi, he couldn't escape the fate of being late......

A book can create a shijie, such as the fantasy shijie of The Lord of the Rings, a good book can make people addicted; It's like letting Su Shichen watch "The Best Family" all night; Similarly, a good book can make people sit and stand and then be late, such as the sad Wang Kai.

The storm of the Matrix is coming, and the Matrix is like a storm, a storm of thinking, sweeping Shijie to cause countless people to think and cause countless people to follow.

Of course, there are a lot of imitations, and when you go to the street, the number of people wearing sunglasses on the street is more than double as usual, and the black trench coat on the Internet is directly out of stock, all of which are brought by a book called "The Matrix I Hacker Mission"!

There was a wave of hacking in the whole of China, and it became a hot topic of discussion in a very short period of time, especially on college and high school campuses, and this situation was even more obvious.

Nowadays, the way in which boys talk to girls is different in the schoolyard. "Hey, what have you been reading lately?" "Hacking mission." "Wow, it's really fateful." Then it was logical to discuss the plot together. Of course, if the sister paper doesn't like to read novels or the novel she answered is not this one, you can also say something like this, "I recommend you a novel that is super good"......

Of course, "The End of the Earth" is also sought after by many readers, after all, the huge shijie concept and flesh-and-blood characters are still very exciting. But the little wave set off by the earth in the last days is like throwing a pebble into a calm lake, and the Matrix is a huge rock, and the splash and ripples are not of a level at all.

It's not just reality that's crazy, there are many readers who can't find someone to talk to in reality, and they have shifted their camp to the Internet.

"Oh my God, is our shijie an illusory shijie as the book says, and we humans have never really touched our bodies from birth to death."

There are many such problems on top of the network. The readers who replied below were roughly divided into two camps, one of which was adamant that what was written in the book was fake, "Of course it is." The landlord thinks too much, it's just a novel. "Wake up from the novel, don't get too fascinated by the landlord." ……

And the other camp is to be skeptical, "If it's false, then what evidence do you have to prove that the shijie we live in is the real shijie, not the illusory shijie like the one written in the novel, to be honest, we have no way to prove it." "What I want to say, landlord. Fifty percent and half each. ”……

Both camps argued, trying to convince each other on various grounds.

Of course, the reason for this is because the background setting of The Matrix is so classic!!

"Writer Su told me......" Wang Shan said in a coquettish tone.

Su Shichen ignored Wang Shan again, but turned his head and asked, "Aunt." How's that about Sherlock Holmes' sales in the United States? ”

Wang Ni was silent, sorting out the language, Su Shichen waited for Wang Ni's answer, he was more entangled now. I want Wang Ni to answer and publish it successfully. Because it is really a very proud thing to conquer the country of rice, which is known as the vane of shijie culture, but I want Wang Ni to say that the publication failed, so that he can go according to the jihua in his heart.

"Sherlock Holmes's own narrative is very suitable for Europe, and there will be no such situation that the translation of a Chinese novel into English will cause the content of the novel to be destroyed due to some grammatical errors, and even I think that the translation of Sherlock Holmes into English will look more wonderful than Chinese." Wang Ni's eyes are really very vicious.

"If it can be popular in the United States, the popularity can also be fed back to the country, so it can be said that this matter can be strongly promoted, but it is ......"

"Mom. Don't hang your appetite, what's wrong. "Wang Shan is anxious.

"Is it because the other publisher's request is too high?" Wang Ni nodded. proved that Su Shichen's conjecture was correct.

Originally, in terms of cultural exporters, Huaxia could not be compared with the United States, and look at how many Chinese books were published in the United States. In addition, Su Shichen is a newcomer to Chiguoguo, although "Sherlock Holmes" is well-known in Wang Shan's school, but it is only in one school, and its influence has not yet covered a continent, a Chinese person is still not famous at all in the United States, an out-and-out newcomer, in fact, even if it is not profitable, he is very happy to sell "Sherlock Holmes" to Mi Wangni, but the negotiation collapsed, and I don't know what kind of excessive price the publishing house in the United States is.

"How is it possible, didn't Jenny say that the old man of the publishing company was always her relative? How could the price be too low, no, I had to call and ask. Wang Shan was furious.

"No need." Su Shichen stopped Wang Shan, "There will be times when they regret it in the future." ”

"Hmph, no, I'm going to call and ask now." Wang Shan was stubborn and ran outside the room to make a call.

"Auntie, have the sales of the Matrix come out?"

"It's still being counted, it's coming out soon."

"Auntie, you said that the first-day sales of the Matrix can surpass "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", right?" Su Shichen really dared to say that opening his mouth and closing his mouth is more than "Ghost Blowing the Lamp".

"When "Ghost Blows the Lantern" was launched, there were no wonderful novels to block it, so it created a kind of domination of the market. And "The Matrix" has the obstacle of "Apocalyptic Earth", although "Apocalyptic Earth" is not enough to threaten "Hacker", but there will be a sharp decline in sales to a certain extent, and the sales of "Hacker" will definitely be among the best, but it is a little difficult to surpass "Ghost Blowing the Lamp". Wang Ni calmly analyzed.

That's right, the kind of hot sales of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" occupy the right time and place, and it is almost more than the record set by Chu Xing, and it is really too greedy to think twice a year.

Soon after, the company's editors sent the sales of "The Matrix I Hacker Mission", and Wang Ni frowned: "The data on the statistical sheet is not wrong?" ”

"No, it's been checked several times." Statistical editor-determined responses.

Wang Ni nodded, and then motioned for the editor to go out.

Wang Ni frowned with the sales data sheet, Su Shichen's heart tightened, is "The Matrix" popular? After changing to a novel, the sales are not strong? (To be continued......)
