Chapter 2: Horror Sales of Three Kingdoms
The press conference of Qi Yuan's new book "Three Kingdoms" was very loud.
Now Qi Yuan, throwing away his status as a star artist, he is also the best-selling author in the publishing industry in China, and he is also the best-selling author.
Qi Yuan's book is so easy to sell.
His debut work, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, has been reprinted three times and still sells around 100,000 per month.
And his reasoning, the "Sherlock Holmes" series, "Astrology Killing Magic", etc., has been very out of the circle because of its in-depth reasoning stories.
It is not only a classic in the eyes of lovers of reasoning, but also has a very high reputation even among the general public.
And "The Three-Body Problem", not to mention, since winning the Huaxing Award every ten years in China, this book has gone to heaven.
Whether it is sales or its degree of discussion, in the whole of China, so far, there is no book that can be compared.
Even "Five Thousand Years of China" is not good.
Because of this series of books, there are indeed reading thresholds, not everyone who comes, can read, is willing to read, and can understand.
As soon as the book launch was over, readers from all over the country poured into the bookstore to bring "Three Kingdoms" home.
In this period of history of the Three Kingdoms, some people like to watch the stories inside, and some people like to watch the people inside.
Domestic and foreign affairs, sophisticated people, power and strategy, heroic demeanor.
The Three Kingdoms have countless romances.
……
The press conference ended, and Qi Yuan withdrew amid everyone's cheers.
But Qi Yuan didn't go home directly, but dressed up in disguise and came to another large bookstore in the northern district of the Western Capital.
As soon as you enter the door, there is a big promotional slogan of "Qi Yuan's new book "Three Kingdoms" debuts", and various billboards.
On a row of bookshelves, there are "Three Kingdoms".
At this moment, there are seven or eight readers standing in front of the bookshelf, all holding a thick copy of "Three Kingdoms" and flipping through it.
"I've been looking forward to the new book for a long time, and I want to know now what exactly is the end of the Han Dynasty? And so it perished? ”
The one who spoke was a young man in a down jacket, with thick lenses, who looked polite, and looked like a person who liked to read very much.
He also had two companions, both girls.
One of the short-haired girls answered: "This set of books is so expensive, more than two hundred, do you really want to buy it?" ”
Another long-haired woman laughed: "Haha, this kid is just like this, if you don't let him read, then you might as well let him die!" ”
The short-haired female voice said: "Although I am a fan of Qi Yuan, but, I can't read a copy of his "Five Thousand Years" series, I can't even understand it, and "Sherlock Holmes" is still good." ”
"Come on, you're just Qi Yuan's fan, I'm a fan of talent!"
The two female voices whispered, but the boy was not affected by the two in the slightest, and he quickly opened the book, and he couldn't wait to know the next story.
The three of them flipped through the pages here for about half an hour before the boy was urged by the two girls to buy the book and leave.
Looking at the smile on the boy's face, he was obviously very satisfied with the content of this "Three Kingdoms".
Then Qi Yuan noticed an old gentleman in a gray coat sitting not far from him.
In his hand, he also held a copy of "Three Kingdoms", and when Qi Yuan came here, this old gentleman was already sitting here.
He looked at it slowly, page by page, and looked very seriously.
He had already bought the book, so he still took out his pen from time to time and wrote and drew on it.
His attention was not on the side at all, and the whole person was attracted to the book.
"Boss, boss, hurry up and bring me a copy of Qi Yuan's new book "Three Kingdoms"!" A takeaway guy walked in in a hurry, bought a copy of "Three Kingdoms" with satisfaction, and then went straight out, stepped on the little electric donkey, and continued to deliver takeaways.
Qi Yuan sat in the bookstore until the afternoon, during which he saw nearly 30 readers who came to buy "Three Kingdoms".
The main reason is that the purpose of their entry into the bookstore is very direct, written on their faces.
They just went straight to the bookshelf of "Three Kingdoms", either picked up the book and looked at it, or bought it directly.
It can be seen that Qi Yuan's book has reached the point where there is no need to wait for word of mouth.
As soon as the new book was released, everyone came to buy it.
Although the price is not low, everyone is willing to spend money.
Because of Qi Yuan's series, there is no need to worry about quality problems at all.
The quality of the entire "Five Thousand Years of China" series is very stable and very high.
The takeaway brother's name is Zhang Hua, and he is almost thirty years old.
But I don't have any education, so I make some hard-earned money by delivering takeaways.
He finished delivering another takeaway order, and it was three or four o'clock in the afternoon, and at this time, there were fewer people ordering takeout.
So at the corner of a commercial street, the little brother sat on the little electric donkey and opened the new book "Three Kingdoms" he had just bought.
The book continues with the third part.
At the end of the previous book, the actual power of the Eastern Han Dynasty court has been a struggle between relatives, eunuchs, and families.
At this time, Zhang Jiao shouted, "The sky is dead, and the yellow sky should stand." Years in Jiazi, the world is auspicious", uprising.
He even sent people to Luoyang to collude with the internal servants, wanting to cooperate with the inside and the outside, but was denounced by his disciples.
The imperial court sent troops to crusade against Zhang Jiao, so Zhang Jiao rebelled in Julu.
Then, the three Zhang Jiao brothers died, and the Yellow Turban Army perished.
After the death of Emperor Ling, He Jin and Empress He set up Liu Wei as emperor.
Next, it is a turbulent era of national turmoil and turmoil in all directions.
"It's so miserable, the ordinary people living in this era are so miserable!"
Zhang Hua looked at it very seriously, as if he had a personal experience of the ordinary people of that era.
After Liu Wei became emperor, Yuan Shao and others instigated He Jin to kill the eunuchs.
The eunuchs naturally didn't want to wait for death, so they struck first and killed He Jin.
And the Yuan Shao brothers saw that He Jin was dead, so they led troops into the palace to kill the eunuchs.
Luoyang City was in chaos.
Dong Zhuo went to Luoyang and finally took charge of the imperial court.
"This Dong Zhuo is really ruthless!"
The coalition army, led by the Yuan Shao brothers, began to attack Luoyang.
In the end, Dong Zhuo burned the city of Luoyang and moved the capital to Chang'an.
Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, Sun Jian, Gongsun Zhu, etc., all forces began to appear.
The Kanto region is fighting each other, and the Central Plains is full of war!
"Beautiful! It's exciting! Star! Strategy! Rip the Ground and Seal the Marquis! It's so pretty! ”
Zhang Hua, who was sitting on the little electric donkey, looked inexplicably enthusiastic.
The story of "Three Kingdoms" is really fascinating.
The Battle of Guandu, the Battle of Chibi......
Zhang Hua was looking at it intently, and suddenly someone was pulling his ears.
"What time is it?" His girlfriend came.
Zhang Hua hurriedly closed the book and said, "Let's go, let's have dinner!" ”
He carried his girlfriend and rode a small electric donkey through this city, and his mind was full of stories about the Three Kingdoms and the Jin Ge Iron Horse.
……
……
Qi Yuan returned home with three catties of prepared crayfish.
Gu Hongli sat in a hammock, wearing a black-framed glasses, holding a copy of "Three Kingdoms" and reading it slowly.
After giving birth, she looks particularly charming and moving.
Recently, for a few nights, Qi Yuan was overwhelmed.
Changle lay on the side, looking at everything around him with innocent eyes.
The sample book of "Three Kingdoms" was sent by Star City Publishing House a week ago.
But Gu Hongli just wanted to get the book officially on the market before he started to read it.
She likes to read it while reading it and then brushing up on the comments of netizens on the book.
Just look at the good reviews.
Qi Yuan changed his slippers and walked over.
Gu Hongli raised his little head lightly and pouted, Qi Yuan leaned down and kissed it, and then said, "I bought some crayfish." ”
Gu Hongli suddenly bounced up from the hammock and smiled: "How do you know that I'm hungry?" ”
"In the morning, when you complained that the porridge was tasteless, I could see it." Qi Yuan took some drinks from the refrigerator and poured two glasses.
The two confinement sisters-in-law who were invited before only worked at home for about 20 days before they were resigned by Qi Yuan.
First, Gu Hongli is recovering well, and now the two of them don't have any work, so they can take care of their daughter.
Second, both of them want to cultivate a good relationship with their daughter when she is still so young.
After all, after a while, when the two of them are busy, it will be difficult to spend so much time with her.
Qi Yuan put on gloves and began to peel crayfish.
In a few moments it was filled with a small bowl.
Gu Hongli picked up chopsticks from time to time, took one and put it in his mouth.
At this moment, the doorbell rang.
Gu's mother walked in with a bucket of chicken soup she had just cooked.
Seeing Gu Hongli waiting for Qi Yuan to peel the crayfish, Gu's mother said lightly: "The crayfish is a thing, you still have to peel and eat it yourself to be comfortable!" ”
Gu Hongli glanced at his mother and said, "But I think it's better to peel it out from my husband." ”
Gu's mother put down the chicken soup, glanced at Gu Hongli, and then glared at Qi Yuan fiercely, and said, "You are used to her day by day, I see how she will live without you in the future?" ”
"Mom, that's my purpose, so that she can't do without me." Qi Yuan said.
"Okay, okay, remember to drink the chicken soup, and get milk."
Gu's mother waved her hand and hurried away.
I have to say that the story of the Three Kingdoms is really fascinating.
Even if he wasn't so interested in the series "Five Thousand Years" before, Gu Hongli, who still read all the books in this series for Qi Yuan's sake, was still attracted after seeing the fourth part of this series, "Three Kingdoms".
"It's so pretty."
It was 11 o'clock in the evening, Gu Hongli put down the book and said to Qi Yuan.
Then her little hand hooked Qi Yuan's neck, and her mouth came up.
Qi Yuan looked at the ceiling, and there was a sense of despair that there was no drop.
……
Stone has been trying to write reasoning lately.
At present, her style of writing is also deeply influenced by Qi Yuan.
During the day, he participated in the press conference of Qi Yuan's new book, and went to the publishing house to see the sample of his new book, and it was almost 12 o'clock in the evening, and the stone dragged his heavy body back home.
After taking a shower and relaxing, Stone sat down on the bed and began to flip through the "Three Kingdoms".
In the entire "Five Thousand Years" series, the more you look back, the more you can see Qi Yuan's super powerful control.
This kind of pen power is something that countless writers want to have.
The whole series, from the very beginning of some mythological stories, the stories, patterns, and behavioral logic of the characters, are very simple.
Such a thing, an author who has written several publications, is able to do it.
But as this story continues, with the Chinese nation in the book, after thousands of years of multiplication in this Central Plains, the volume of the whole story has shown a geometric progression.
In each period of history, countless characters and stories continue to move forward according to the timeline, which is extremely intricate.
But in Qi Yuan's pen, it is so organized.
The difficulty of writing this series of books is recognized as the first in the circle of Chinese authors.
Because there are too many relationships between the characters.
Write a country's 5,000-year-old history by yourself?
This matter, just listening to it, made the stone feel big.
This series is not only about taking care of the relationships between contemporaries, but also about the history that has already taken place, and in this book, it will also have a profound impact on future generations.
For example, the title of emperor set by the first emperor has been continued.
For example, the thoughts of the hundred schools of thought of the sons of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, even in the era of the Three Kingdoms, are still exerting their brilliance.
Stone began to watch "Three Kingdoms".
On the plane, Yao Changsheng was also watching "Three Kingdoms".
The two cats are also looking at the Three Kingdoms.
Countless readers are watching the Three Kingdoms.
The more everyone watched, the more excited and shocked they were by this story written by Qi Yuan.
In the post bar, today's heat is unprecedented.
It's the same time that everyone has celebrated the New Year.
[Because I participated in the activities of Xingcheng Publishing House, I got Qi Yuan's signed version of "Three Kingdoms" for the first time this morning, from morning to night, without eating or drinking, for nearly 12 hours, I finally went through the book roughly. 】
This is a post in the post bar, which has been topped to 100,000 high-rise buildings.
The person who posted it is called "May the person last".
He said on the first floor: "Qi Yuan can be a god." I put the words here, who is for and who against? ”
"Landlord, are you done? Who and who are the Three Kingdoms? I just saw Dong Zhuo here, I'm too curious about the story behind! ”
"Cao Mengde is really a talent, I like such characters! If I expected, Cao Cao must be one of the Three Kingdoms, right? ”
"The story of the Three Kingdoms is so exciting, starting from the edict of the clothes belt, it is simply a step by step, which is dizzying!"
"Hahaha! I'll give you a spoiler, the Three Kingdoms refer to 'Wei Shu Wu', as for who the boss of the Three Kingdoms is, I'm still going to be a person, so I won't tell you yet! ”
"A short history of 90 years has given me a sense of vicissitudes. Qi Yuan's pen power is too terrifying! I said that Zhuge Liang is the most awesome, does anyone object? ”
On the first day of the launch of "Three Kingdoms", sales exceeded the 20 million mark!
This data shocked the entire Chinese publishing industry.
Countless publishing houses now see the words Star City Press, and their eyes are red.
Relying on Qi Yuan, Xingcheng Publishing House has made a lot of money, which is too jealous.
And in the first week after the release of "Three Kingdoms", the sales volume exceeded 50 million copies!
Such a terrifying sales, even the news broadcast, at the end of the news, mentioned it.
And as more and more people watched "Three Kingdoms", the fourth part of the "Five Thousand Years" series, everyone was unconsciously divided into three camps, Wei, Shu and Wu, and there was a heated discussion on the Internet.
On the hot searches of major forums, Weibo, Tieba, Zhihu, Hu Douban, and Maopu, "Three Kingdoms" is hung.
Anything related to the Three Kingdoms, on the network during this time, means traffic!
Many readers have posted long articles talking about the plot of the Three Kingdoms.
On the Internet, there are three most popular posts, which are:
[Is Cao Cao a hero or a hero? ] 】
[Liu Bei and his life ideals. 】
[Sun Quan's home country is the world. 】
These three posts sent by readers as a starting point triggered an unprecedented Three Kingdoms storm in China, and in the next few days, the number of discussions on the whole network exceeded 10 billion.
The Three Kingdoms spread throughout China at an extremely terrifying speed.
Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Quan, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi...... And so on and so forth, countless characters, began to shine.
