The richest man

Chapter 54
Hong Kong.

A certain newsstand, a man complained to the people around him: "Have you noticed that the recent news is almost all about Zhang Jun. His scandal with the three heroines of "Happy Ghost" has intensified, and his new book is also published today. It's about to be serialized, I feel like Zhang Jun is everywhere in Hong Kong!"

"Awesome! Having said that, I'm really interested in the movie "Happy Ghost" now. Zhang Jun's rumored three girlfriends are so beautiful. I don't know how they will behave in the movie. People look forward to it."

"Tch, you pervert, you only know how to look at women! I am more interested in Zhang Jun's new book. It is said that this "Three-Body Problem" is a science fiction masterpiece. Jia Hefeng, the editor-in-chief of "Sing Tao Daily", strongly recommends it, saying It is expected to win the international award - the Hugo Award!"

"What is the Hugo Award? I know the great French writer Hugo, the one who wrote "Notre Dame de Paris" and "Les Miserables"!"

"It's not this Hugo, it's the 'Father of Science Fiction Magazine' Hugo Gernsback. The Hugo Award is an award awarded by the World Science Fiction Association in honor of him. Simply put, the Hugo Award and the Nebula Award are in the field of science fiction literature The highest award in the world is known as the "Nobel Prize of science fiction literature"! And no one in Asia has won this award so far! If Zhang Jun can win this Hugo Award, I, Zhou Xiaotian, will not accept anyone from now on Submit him!"

Soon it was Zhou Xiaotian's turn to buy newspapers.

"Boss, here's a copy of Sing Tao Daily!"

After Zhou Xiaotian paid the money, he took the newspaper, went to the side and quickly flipped through it, and directly read Zhang Jun's new book "Three-Body Problem" in the supplement.

Soon, Zhou Xiaotian frowned, feeling that he was a bit confused. The beginning of the novel was difficult to understand, and it seemed a bit boring. The various physics terms were simply confusing.

However, "The Three-Body Problem" is Zhang Junda's masterpiece, Zhou Xiaotian still bite the bullet and read it, gradually feeling overwhelmed by the brain opening of this novel.

However, there are also many people who can't read it anymore after reading the beginning, saying that Zhang Jun's novel is not good, and it must hit the street.

"Zhang Jun's novel is not up to standard. Science fiction is not so easy to write. How good it is to continue writing fairy tale novels!"

"I also think "Three-Body Problem" is not good-looking, I can't read it, it is indeed not as exciting and passionate as "Zhu Xian"!"

"..."

Some people compare "The Three-Body Problem" with Ni Kuang's Wesley series of science fiction novels, and think that "Wesley's Fiction" is still better. It combines elements of science fiction, suspense, and adventure into one, which is very exciting.

Before noon, Jia Hefeng told Zhang Jun the results of his interview with readers.

"Zhang Sheng, many readers are not satisfied with the new book "Three-Body Problem", saying that it is a bit boring and difficult to understand."

"Don't worry, when they settle down and continue reading, they will definitely like this book!" Zhang Jun said indifferently.He wrote this book to gain his reputation, and he didn't expect those readers in Hong Kong to like it.

Hard science fiction like "The Three-Body Problem" is not very popular in Hong Kong.

But for the judges of Europe, America and the World Science Fiction Association, "The Three-Body Problem" is undoubtedly a world-class magnificent masterpiece!
the next morning.

Many newspapers began to belittle Zhang Jun's new book, saying that he was exhausted.

The sales of "Sing Tao Daily" have also been affected somewhat.

Legendary Films, Editing Room.

"Son, don't be discouraged. It doesn't matter if the new book is not popular. At worst, I will write another one." Zhang Zhenghao walked up to Zhang Jun and comforted him.Early this morning, many newspapers actually reported that his son's new book was going to hit the street, which shocked Zhang Zhenghao.After thinking about it, he decided to comfort his son.

Zhang Jun stopped what he was doing, looked up at his father, and said with a smile, "Do you think I look discouraged? I don't care, okay, Dad, I have to continue editing, don't bother me !"

Zhang Jun still went his own way, ignoring the bad comments from the outside world, thinking that when he was nominated for the "Hugo Award" in the future, their faces should be slapped~
Zhang Zhenghao looked it over carefully, and felt that his son was indeed a normal person. He secretly lamented that his son's mentality was really strong. If his movie hit the street, he would definitely be very sad, so he wouldn't be in the mood to do anything else.

"Okay, I think you're fine, so let's continue editing. Hold on tight, there are only three or four days left."

"I know, don't worry, I promise to cut it well today!"

Zhang Jun has "Happy Ghost" from his previous life as a reference, and the editing speed is amazing.

Zhang Jun was busy in the editing room all day long.

At around 4:[-] p.m., the film of "Happy Ghost" was finished.

In the evening, post-production such as dubbing, soundtrack, and subtitles began.

When Zhang Jun dragged his exhausted body back home, Jia Hefeng turned on the phone again.

There was a hint of excitement in his tone.

"Zhang Sheng, "The Three-Body Problem" has been serialized to the second issue. Many readers have written to say that they like this novel very much. They are very shocked by the many brainstorming ideas in it! They also wrote to express their support for you. I hope you will not Being reported by outside newspapers, I can continue to create!"

"Editor Jia, let me just say, someone will like this book, okay, you write me back and say thank you for their support, I will stick to it."

"Ok."

"By the way, Editor Jia, do you know anyone from American publishing houses or magazines? I plan to translate "Three-Body Problem" into English and distribute it in Europe and America." Zhang Jun said suddenly.

Be famous as early as possible.

Don't the Hong Kong media satirize themselves?
Brother has become famous abroad, let's see what you say.

"I know a few friends, but their status is not high, but they can connect you. As for whether the publishing house or magazine will appreciate your work, I can't guarantee it." Jia Hefeng was surprised , opened the mouth.

"Please contact me first, I may write more English novels in the future..."

In Zhang Jun's mind, "Jurassic Park", "The Da Vinci Code", "Harry Potter", "A Song of Ice and Fire", "Wheel of Time" appeared unconsciously at this time wait.

"Okay, Zhang Sheng, I will contact you for you." Jia Hefeng was surprised. Zhang Jun is going to enter the European and American novel market. The small pool of Hong Kong may not be able to keep this predator!

However, can Zhang Jun's English novels be so wonderful?

Jia Hefeng was a little skeptical.

This is simply too difficult.

How can a Chinese write a novel that is popular in Europe and America?

Jia Hefeng didn't discourage Zhang Jun's enthusiasm. He secretly thought that he would wake up after Zhang Jun hit a wall in the United States, and finally stayed in Hong Kong to write Chinese novels with peace of mind.

Zhang Jun said, "Well, thank you then."

"What is the relationship between us, what are you thanking for, I will hang up if there is nothing else, goodbye!"

"See you."
