Nuoshan Publishing House is a relatively familiar name, although Su Shichen can't remember where he saw it, but since he is familiar with it, it must have a certain degree of popularity.

But then again, since according to Wang Jiaxuan, the headquarters of Nuoshan Publishing House is located in an island country, how can the president of the publishing house still have the time to participate in this event, is there really such a hardcore fan? Ran all the way from the island country to Yangcheng, just to have a meal with Su Shichen?

Su Shichen didn't think he had such a big charm, so there should be some other things.

"Is Noshan Publishing involved in the comics industry?" Su Shichen asked.

Wang Jiaxuan replied: "No, the main publications of Nuoshan Publishing House are science fiction, reasoning, and horror. ”

Immediately afterwards, Wang Jiaxuan asked: "Su Da, do you know the novel market in the island country?" ”

"Understand something." Su Shichen replied that he still knows a lot about the island novel market.

In the previous life, the novel market in the island countries of the earth can be said to be strong and abnormal, and this strength is not only reflected in the purchasing strength, but also in the influence of the cultural industry.

The island country can compete with the United States in animation, and even its influence in Asia is far greater than that of the United States.

There are also novels, just to say that the integrity of the awards of each novel is not comparable to that in China, especially the three themes of science fiction, horror, and reasoning, of course, Japan's pure love novels are also very developed, but the genre of pure love is mainly reflected in mobile phone reading, that is, Japanese e-books, and there is really not much effort in publishing.

This shijie situation is not much different from the earth in the previous life. But what does Wang Jiaxuan mean by asking this question?

Su Shichen noticed some signs, and then sure enough, Wang Jiaxuan said, "The level of the murder case of Suda Sherlock Holmes and the Orient Express is very high, have you ever thought of publishing it to the island country." Although there is no way to compare the number and area of the island country with the domestic country, the mystery novel is more influential in the island country than in the country. ”

Wang Jiaxuan's participation in this [suitable date] event is really not as simple as meeting him for dinner.

One thing to explain is that what Wang Jiaxuan said just now was not admiring foreign flattery, she was telling the truth, and she had to know one thing.

The island country is Shijie's No. 1 mystery novel power!

Yes, you read that right at all. Shijie is the first mystery novel country that does not have what is known as the originator of mystery novels. The country where Lampo is located does not have two mystery novel grandmasters Conan. The United Kingdom, where Doyle and Christie are located, is not France with the Robin of the Monster Thief series. It is an island country with a strip of water with China!

At a time when European mystery novels were in decline and the tradition of the Golden Age was quietly ending, island mystery novels rose strongly, and the name of the "New Youth Era" led by famous artists such as Edogawa Ranbu and Koga Saburo was born. It is due to the emergence of many talented young mystery novelists. At that time, it was like the political situation in Japan at the time of the Warring States, and it could be described as full of heroes.

After the end of the Warring States Period, the novelists of the "Jewel Age" represented by Yokozo Masashi and Takagi Binmitsu injected vitality into the world of mystery novels in the island country.

Later, the "Phantom City Era" rose and then ended, and it came to the hot "New Benge Era" in the new century, and under the advocacy of Shoji Shimada, the New Benge School can be said to have been brought into full play. The excavation of new authors is self-evident, and the island nation also has a special award. It's called the Mephistopheles Award, and it's set up to discover new talents.

There are countless awards for mystery novels, such as the Edogawa Ranpo Award, the Mystery Writers Association Award, the Mephistopheles Award, and the Matsumoto Kiyohari Award.

Of course, the most direct proof is that one of Shijie's three major mystery novel grandmasters is Matsumoto Kiyohari of the island country, and the other two are Conan who created "Sherlock Holmes". Doyle with Christie, the queen of reasoning.

Although the cultural background of this shijie is not exactly the same as the earth in the previous life, it is still roughly the same, and it can be summed up in one sentence: in terms of the prosperity of mystery novels, China and the island country are not at the same level at all.

Wang Jiaxuan saw that Su Shichen didn't speak, and continued to speak: "Su Da, I heard that your company is very anxious to publish your works such as the Matrix Empire and Sherlock Holmes to the United States, but the negotiations ended in failure. ”

Wang Jiaxuan seemed to be afraid that Su Shichen would be disappointed, so he hurriedly added a sentence later: "Of course, this does not prove that Su Da has a problem with your ability, the murder of Sherlock Holmes and the Orient Express is completely epic, even in Europe and the United States, it is a classic among the classics, and the reason why it failed is because Su Da is not famous enough." ”

Wang Jiaxuan is definitely a very haode lobbyist, and the words are a set of words: "Su Da, your reputation in China can be said to be unbeatable, of course, Chu Da is retiring, we don't count him, but Su Da, your fame is only limited to China, not to mention the country, even in Asia, Su Da, your reputation is not prominent, Su Da, you also know the character of those ghosts, the country is the vane of shijie entertainment, flaunting freedom and independence, but in fact, they still have discrimination in their bones, but, If Su Da conquered the island country and used the island country as the foundation to impact the shijie literary world, then the situation would be different. ”

The Asian cultural industry is only the island country, South Korea, and Huaxia, and the conquest of these three countries can be said to have conquered the whole of Asia, the most important of which is China and the island country, Huaxia is known as the first overseas box office in the film industry in the United States, and the island country is the second largest economy in Asia, as for South Korea, it can only be used as a copy.

In Huaxia, Su Shichen has become famous all over the country, and according to the jihua he formulated for himself, the next step is to conquer Japan, so as to become famous in Asia, and go to the United States based on the whole of Asia.

In fact, Wang Ni also knows this, but what she is thinking about is the whole company, for the company, it is more beneficial to quickly open the European and European markets than to develop slowly step by step, and Wang Ni is very confident in "Sherlock Holmes Detective Collection", it is the fusion of these two points, Wang Ni formulated such a bold jihua, so it suffered a big blow. Until now, "Sherlock Holmes" has not found a suitable publishing house in the United States.

"The development of Suzhou University in China can be said to have fallen into a bottleneck, and it is time to rush out of the country." Wang Jiaxuan's words completely moved Su Shichen.

Wang Jiaxuan naturally saw that Su Shichen was moved, so he made persistent efforts and said: "Although Holmes's pen is Europeanized. But it is also eaten in the island country, and I can guarantee this, as the president of Nuoshan Publishing House. ”

Su Shichen didn't have the slightest doubt about this, how popular the "Sherlock Holmes Detective Collection" was on the earth in his previous life in the island country, just look at the name of that 10,000-year-old elementary school student - Edogawa Conan...... There are also Shoji Shimada's "Astrology Killing Magic" and so on, there are many mystery novels in the island country that are paying tribute to Conan Doyle, not to mention those that are imitated. The influence of Sherlock Holmes in the island nation can be seen!

"Jiajia and wait, Aunt Wang has always been in charge of the publication of my works, and I will call Aunt Wang now. The three of us will talk about it in detail. ”

Wang Jiaxuan nodded, signaling that she could wait.

Su Shichen is not relying on Wang Ni, but as the saying goes, there is a specialization in the art industry, if there is no Wang Ni to help solve all kinds of problems in distribution. Even a century of wealth in his head would be distressing. Su Shichen's full-time job is a writer rather than a businessman.

After a while, Wang Ni arrived, and the efficiency was very high, and Su Shichen made it clear to her the ins and outs of the matter.

Wang Ni looked at Su Shichen's gaze a little strangely, it was indeed strange, holding an event, and then meeting a fan could actually meet the president of the publishing house, and it was also a relatively influential publishing house in Japan, this matter itself is a strange thing.

Su Shichen just knew that Nuoshan Publishing House was more famous in the island country. I don't know the detailed information, but Wang Ni knows the ins and outs of the matter. Soon, the details of the Noshan Publishing House were called up from somewhere.

Nuoshan Publishing House was founded in 2004 and has been around for more than ten years, and its main business is to translate good works from China to the island country, or to translate the good works of the island country into China, it is worth mentioning that many of Chu Xing's works in the island country are represented by this Nuoshan Publishing House, no wonder Su Shichen feels that this Nuoshan Publishing House is familiar, it turns out that he saw this name when he was investigating the books written by Chu Xing.

"I don't have the slightest doubt about the distribution channels of your publishing house, but as far as I know, the publicity channels are not very good," Wang Ni poked at the death hole of Nuoshan Publishing House as soon as she opened her mouth, "Brother Dasha's "Millennium" sold very well in China, and then the sales of your publishing house in the island country are only one-twentieth of the sales in China, I am not mistaken. ”

"The Millennium" written by Dasha is a science fiction genre, although the science fiction novels in the island country are not as popular as mystery novels, but they are also very developed, and the sales of one book are less than one-twentieth of that in China, which is enough to prove that there is a problem with the publicity of Nuoshan Publishing House.

Wang Jiaxuan did not panic at all, and slowly explained: "For "Millennium", we did have some small mistakes in publicity, but the main reason for the lack of sales is that the style of "Millennium" is not suitable for the island country, so the sales in the island country have fallen into a sluggish situation. ”

"But is the style of Sherlock Holmes necessarily suitable for the island nation?"

Wang Ni's question stumped Wang Jiaxuan, from her professional point of view, although the pen of "Sherlock Holmes" is Westernized, it is absolutely adaptable in the island market, but the crux of the problem is that as a newcomer, with "Sherlock Holmes" to enter the island market, is this method really feasible?

Although gold can be detected no matter how deep it is buried in the sand, the key question is how long it takes to clean the sand from the gold so that the gold can be seen.

"Actually, I have a way to make "Sherlock Holmes" popular in the island country at a very small cost." Su Shichen, who had never intervened, spoke, and this opening could be described as an earth-shattering shock.

Su Shichen is absolutely first-class in terms of publicity, and there are not many ghost ideas in his head.

"What's the solution?" Wang Ni and Wang Jiaxuan asked in unison.

"The solution is ......" (to be continued......
