"It's unbelievable that Mr. Gretel is still a genius!"
"Hurry up, investigate Mr. Gretel's information in China, I want the most complete!"
Celebrities are magical, and when the public's attention to celebrities reaches a certain level, it is endowed with a mysterious aura and seems to be omnipotent, especially people like Xiao Shu who have also "proven" their talents.
Soon, the reporters around Xiao Shu discovered Xiao Shu's deeds in China.
Wrote the best-selling "Breaking the Sky", the book has been over for two months, and the physical book has already been on the market, but the results are still incredible, from its publication to the present, except for the beginning of the period, it has been on the best-selling list, everything about this book, is the first! Dominate the list! A well-deserved super bestseller!
wrote the super popular pop music "Old Boy", which appeared on the Spring Festival Gala in 07, although Xiao Zhu did not participate in the singing of the Spring Festival Gala, but on the big screen, the lyrics and composers Xiao Shu were written, and even the words of the original singer Xiao Shu were added......
wrote the script of the now super-popular phenomenal TV series "Langya Bang", which has been logged in to various Davids in China a month ago, and has also swept various ratings lists......
Not only that, but there is also "Let's Run" and the Korean version of Running Man......
At this moment, the reporters found out that Gretel Diao seems to be omnipotent, but all the projects he has come into contact with and the industries he has come into contact with are almost all dominant, even the kind of powerful that does not give others a way to live!
The reporters were excited, and the surrounding melon-eating crowd was also excited.
"Oh God, this book is so good!"
An American woman about 20 years old took the preview book in her hand and said excitedly: "No wonder Gretel Diao can achieve such remarkable results in China, he is a genius!" ”
"Yes, I've decided, I'll ask him to give me an autograph later, maybe this one can be changed into a movie and put on the big screen in the future!"
Someone immediately chimed in, and the atmosphere at the scene was hot.
More and more people began to line up, hoping to get a signed book from this great talent, and the 300 copies prepared by the publishing house were sold out almost in 1 hour, and the panicked manager hurriedly transferred 1,000 copies!
The Hunger Games is on fire!
On the second day, major newspapers in New York began to focus on this hot phenomenon, and on the first day of its release, "The Hunger Games" has sold more than 100,000 ultra-luxury data in major bookstores across the United States! You must know that Xiao Zhu is not a famous big name in the American world, readers will not bring his emotions to it because he is a rich man, and its big sales are enough to prove its excellence!
It is worth mentioning that more than 80% of the people who bought this film are women in their 20-40s, these people are crazy about "The Hunger Games", on Twitter, Facebook, there are many sharing about the plot, and many women can't help but say: "It would be nice if I could be the heroine in it." ”
At the same time, this is a real feminism, which is no longer just about women holding up half the sky, but about women being able to occupy most of the world's resources, and men being vassals! This kind of argument that women can't imagine has sparked a resonance with women and has drawn a response from feminist organizations across the United States.
It's not safe to say it's a response, at least on this day, Xiao Zhu has successively given a lot of funding to women's rights organizations all over the United States: New York, Washington, San Francisco, Los Angeles and other large regions, and the total amount of funding this time is even as high as more than 10 million US dollars!
Where real money is spent, you will always get the most enthusiastic feedback.
On the second day, the sales of "The Hunger Games" soared from 100,000 to 300,000 units!
This is a woman, so feminist organizations in various regions of the United States have contributed indelible to its sales, women in the Americas are more independent than China, and women's rights in China have been called pastoral women's rights, and the emphasis is on men who should do anything for me unconditionally, and women in the Americas are more likely to fight for the rights that various women should have, so most of the people affected by feminist organizations have formal jobs and have a lot of income.
It's a terrible group of potentials who are willing to pay for something that touches their hearts, even if it costs a lot of money!
You know, "The Hunger Games" is not a separate side, "The Hunger Games" on the market today, a total of eight volumes, all into the first part, it retails for as much as $120! In the early days of sales, although it carried out activities and reduced prices by 5% discounts, this activity only lasted for half a day and was terminated.
Because the publisher found that this one is really too popular, so hot that on the third day, its sales volume is still more than 300,000 copies, and the supply of publishing houses to some regions has been tightened, after people's word of mouth, the terrifying influence and communication power of good works began to appear, generally speaking, the sales in the early stage of sales, that is, the first two days, will be better, just like the movie, it is also with the passage of time, and reduce the popularity.
But "The Hunger Games" actually resisted this trend, and its terrifying sales, on the fourth day after its launch, finally caused a collective uproar in the industry.
On Twitter, a commentator named Lynn Ryth tweeted: "I don't understand why 'The Hunger Games' is so hot, it's just a boring idiot-like work, the whole thing is full of female pretentiousness and false fantasies, there is no truth at all, although it is artistic, but it is not higher than art, this kind of rubbish thing, even if it is shown to my three-year-old daughter, she is disdainful." ”
"Let me make a bold guess, maybe our Mr. Gretel Diao has too much money, and he is not stingy to buy some sales with his own money, because with the 240,000 superficial sales on the fourth day, "The Hunger Games" has already exceeded one million sales in just four days, let's see, what was the fastest to do this last time?"
"Oh, it's A Song of Ice and Fire, and the fastest time it broke the record of one million sales was in a week! So going a little further and looking at what we found, it's the Haribota series, and of course it's so deep, it's a great fantasy genre, so I want to ask, how can The Hunger Games be compared to these great bestsellers? ”
Lynn Reis, is doubting the data of The Hunger Games!
This is the industry's attitude towards Xiao Zhu, in a sense, they are actually not wrong, because the data of "The Hunger Games" is so exaggerated, exaggerated that this does not seem to be the data that a "newcomer" can create, so these people in the industry began to compare the previous benchmark with "The Hunger Games", and then they found: Oh my God, this is impossible, how can the data of this one be so good, it must be fake.
So there was Lynn Reis, and as soon as he tweeted, some people in the industry followed up, and they expressed their opinions one after another.
"That's right, the data of The Hunger Games, at least for now, seems impossible!"
Such data even broke the record set by "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone"! So it's not credible! ”
"When has the world become a game of money? Can you buy the reputation of a genius by spending dollars? ”
……
Taylor Swift is a singer, she has become a famous country music diva at a young age, and the new album "Fearless" just released this year has already appeared on the best-selling list, and is regarded as the best-selling double platinum album this year, and this year, she is just 19 years old!
Taylor Swift, meanwhile, is a staunch feminist who believes that women should have the same rights as men, and to that end she has been a member of a New York feminist group since last year.
When she first learned the name of Gretel Diao, she was full of affection for him, because he was a staunch supporter and sympathizer of feminism, and the other party donated $1 million to a feminist organization in New York when he first arrived in the United States!
When Gretel Diao published "The Hunger Games", Taylor Swift had already gotten the news, which made her regret that she originally wanted to go to the book signing, but was delayed by something that day, although she entrusted her mother to buy this legendary feminist work for herself as soon as possible, but Taylor Swift still has some regrets.
But these regrets disappeared as soon as I saw The Hunger Games, because it was such a fascinating work, and as soon as I watched it all night, Taylor Swift decided to write a song for it!
It's just that before she started, she accidentally saw Lynn Rhyth's Twitter from the Internet!
“F*ck! This man is talking nonsense with his eyes open! ”
A series of expletives protruded from the red lips, and Taylor Swift typed a line into the computer, and @Lynn-Reis.
"You don't know anything about women, you try to use your poor brain capacity of only 1 ml to spy on Mr. Grete Diao's genius thinking, his "Hunger Games" is not only an exciting adventure, but also a thought-provoking woman, it has an unparalleled audience, 38 women's rights organizations in all regions of the United States, as soon as it goes on sale, they jointly recommend it to members as a recommended read!"
"On top of that, you also deliberately left out the last record for sales of "Twilight", which also sold 1 million units in a week! In fact, "Twilight" is a feminine read, and according to the latest news I received, "Tales of the Night" has sold the rights for $8 million! ”
"I can tell you with certainty, you backward old man, you can no longer keep up with the pulse of the times, the future belongs to the world of female consumers, Mr. Grett follows this trend, he does not need to spend dollars to buy sales!"
In Hua Guo's parlance, if Lynn Reth is a small creative, critical influencer, then Taylor Swift is a real star! This can be seen from the following of both on Twitter, Lynn Rhyth has only a measly 50,000 followers, while Taylor Swift has more than 5 million followers!
So the moment Taylor Swift stood up, Lynn Ryeth had already lost, a large number of fans appeared under Lynn Ryeth's Twitter, attacks and abuse were endless, Taylor Swift herself is a rather rebellious girl, of course, her fans are not peaceful people, and there are even fanatical fans who have issued personal threats to Lynn Rhyth!
"Call the police, I'm going to call the police! Oh my God, what's wrong with this world, why are there such people! ”
Lynn Reth offline was already crazy, and he felt full of grievances: "People didn't say anything about you, I just attacked Gretel Diao, it seems that you don't know him at all, why do you stand up for him!" ”
But soon, Lynn Rhyth really went crazy because Taylor Swift wasn't the first.
Soon, the American supersocialite Imanka retweeted Taylor Swift's tweet and commented: "It's very pertinent, Gretel Diao doesn't bother to buy sales, for him, writing is just his hobby, he just wants to convey some of his thoughts to the rest of the world through these things." ”
Imanka, like her father Rip, is a "big V" on Twitter and has a lot of influence!
Subsequently, some celebrities also came forward to stand up for Gretel Diao, such as Julia Roberts, a superstar, a horror figure who just won the Academy Award for Lifetime Achievement, directly reprimanded Lynn Reiss: "A villain who only looks at other people's achievements." ”
What made Lynn Reiss even more desperate was that Miss Amanda Horn also came forward, she just lightly posted a data, which was everything that Lynn Reiss had written, and added a message: "This garbage, which no one reads, will be completely banned from sale by the Holst bookstore chain from today!" ”
The Horst family is the family with the deepest involvement in media and culture in the United States, and the Horst bookstore chain is one of the top three bookstore giants in the United States! Its ban on sale has almost cut off the future of Lynn Rise!
Six hours after Lynn Reiss tweeted, he silently deleted the tweet and published a new one: "After reading The Hunger Games carefully, I found that it is a work that should be on a par with Tales of the Night, it is a well-deserved, connotative bestseller, and I apologize to Mr. Gretel Diao for my previous remarks!" ”
