Chapter 149: Bella and Professor X

Bella is a newcomer in the writer's business, and she doesn't need to hold a book signing at all.

The sale of the Da Vinci code was silent, and after three days, it is estimated that after a little word of mouth among readers, Random House's publicity offensive began.

"A mysterious, suspicious, and romantic masterpiece."

"Ten years of polishing, a wonderful reading that analyzes the nature of human nature and religion."

"A terrible conspiracy! That truth has long been buried by history, the authoress Isabella. Swan presents you with a wonderful presentation and gives the public a real Mona Lisa! ”

Several newspapers and magazines devoted to bestsellers received advertising money from Random House, and each of them devoted a different page to the book The Da Vinci Code.

In this era, the Internet is not the main body of public access to information, and most people who have the money to buy bestsellers still get information in newspapers and various periodicals and magazines.

Bella also talked about her childhood and creative experience when she was interviewed by the magazine.

I can't say what kind of death is coming, what glorious deeds of bloodbathing Paris, in her mouth, she is a poor, weak, helpless poor girl who can't eat.

The first three days of sales were mediocre, but after word of mouth gradually appeared, Random House stepped up its promotional efforts, and some figures in New York were also secretly promoting, and the books began to sell well!

Random House sold less than 20,000 copies in the first three days, and there was no overly strong reaction from distributors everywhere.

After another three days, the first 100,000 copies were sold out, and the dealer's phone called Random House.

30,000 copies were printed, and they were sold out in one day.

After printing 50,000 copies, it only lasted for a day and a half, and the call to ask for the goods came again.

On the bestseller list in the United States, the Da Vinci Code broke into the top 10 as a dark horse, and the ranking is rising.

The word-of-mouth in all aspects can be described as explosive.

Random House immediately notified its subordinate printing house to print another 500,000 copies at full capacity!

At the end of June, Bella was excited to see the sales numbers climb every day, but she was back to Stanford this weekend.

Before leaving, she also paid out of her own pocket to form a small celebration party to thank publishers and distributors for their help.

Then it was time to thank her family and friends, and as promised, she gave her autographed Da Vinci code to several friends in New York.

Knowing that the Da Vinci code was written by her, Nathan. Ingram went out of her way and helped her advocate in New York for several days.

In the same way, the billionaire said it and the ordinary people said it, the effect is different, Bella was very grateful for the other party's help, and the father and daughter gave a copy.

To the elegant and easy-going history teacher Carl. Elijah gave a copy to Stormgirl, and Cyclops also gave a copy.

John. Professor Grey and Professor Charles could not ignore these and sent a copy each.

"Miss Swan, can we talk?" Before leaving New York, the old bald Charles, accompanied by the Storm Girl, came to the hotel where she was resting.

The poor, weak, helpless, and poor beauty writer who has been staying at the Hilton these days has been staying at the Hilton Hotel, and she is prepared for what the old bald head is about to say.

The book sold so smoothly that she didn't believe it herself if there was no one behind it.

Where is this? This is a capitalist society, writing? How much is a pound of writing?

Without the impetus of capital, Shakespeare would have been reborn and would have starved to death on the side of the road.

Nathan. It's true that Ingram is a billionaire, but his field of work has little to do with book publishing, and the middle-aged man with a brilliant temperament once confessed to Bella that there are deeper people behind the scenes who drive the whole thing.

Old bald, Charles. Professor Xavier is the man who can move the whole thing forward.

In the eyes of the outside world, the assets of the old bald head on the surface are 3.5 billion US dollars, which is not even a fraction of Stark's, which is actually not the same thing at all.

The old bald man inherited the family fortune during World War II, and he was a famous billionaire at that time.

His own intelligence is among the best in Marvel, and he is still the most powerful psychic ability in the Marvel world, although this strongest is a bit weak compared to the large number of hanging forces that came out in the later stage.

Poor Charles. Professor Xavier became a unit of measurement in the later period, which was used to set off the strength of the younger generations, and at every turn the large group was equal to fifty Professor Xavier, and the Omega Kid was equivalent to forty, Rachel. Summers is equal to thirty-five ......

In the later stage, the strength of the old bald head is completely unwatchable, but now, in this period when superheroes have not risen and omega-level mutants have not yet sprung up like a blowout, the strength of the old bald head is the existence of the ceiling.

The White Queen is only equivalent to Professor Charles at 0.8, and the Apocalypse even claims that he has lived for thousands of years to meet such a powerful psychic powerhouse.

The ceiling of the old era, the unit of measurement of the new era, this is Charles. Professor Xavier.

Such a powerful billionaire, after 50 years without illness or disaster, his assets are only 3.5 billion? Can you believe it?

The old bald head is laid out all over the world, it seems harmless to people and animals, but in fact, the influence in the shadows is amazing, which cannot be calculated by numbers on paper at all.

Compared horizontally, perhaps only people who have reached middle age, experienced the division and merger of the Avengers, and Tony after his enlightenment. Stark was able to match him.

No one will help you for no reason, and if someone helps you, it must show that you are valuable.

In Bella's opinion, her employee, Mr. Max, is worthless, looking at the store every day, giving eight hundred dollars a month, she doesn't think she can give too much, and her roommate Heather is valuable, so she can get eight hundred dollars just for cooking, and even get a raise in the future.

She sees others as she sees her.

There are so many mutants, why did the old bald head fall in love with laser eyes and not others? That's because Cyclops has what it takes to be a leader.

Stormgirl turned away in good interest, while Bella pushed the old bald head for a walk in the park outside the hotel.

"I've seen people like you, in New York." The old man said softly.

Someone like me? Bella didn't answer, but thought for a moment, and quickly came to her senses, presumably talking about the group of mages in the New York Temple.

In terms of Professor Charles' ability to detect most of New York City's psychic abilities with a random thought, it was not difficult for him to discover the New York Temple.

He may not be able to see the level of the Ancient One, but the mage in the temple is not just an Ancient One.

Those salted fish mages may have come out to make soy sauce, and their own details have been seen by this mutant mentor.
