Entertainment Reborn Rhapsody

Chapter 72 Chapter 73: Overseas Sales

Scholars Publishing House attaches great importance to the release of the English version of Shanhe novels, and has invested certain publicity resources in North America and Europe.

In almost every bookstore in a big city in North America and Europe, you can find small stacks of Shanhe's two books, and some bookstores even make a brief introduction to Shanhe, a 16-year-old Chinese boy.

The book is printed much more beautifully than domestic ones. It depicts two teenagers who open their arms to the sky, but the background is slightly gloomy. A line of small characters is written under the conspicuous title. In the world of teenagers, there are also death, jungle, poverty, dignity and Unswerving until death.

The publishing house also published reviews and recommendations of some local writers in many literary newspapers, giving readers a potential impression.

On the day the book was released, some readers became curious about the best-selling book in Huaguo written by a 16-year-old boy in Huaguo.

Henry, a middle school teacher, was one of them. He had some impressions of this book "We Are Young". It was about bullying on campus. Henry opened the book and read it in front of the stack.

Ten minutes later, Henry walked to the counter with two books from Shanhe.

Henry likes the book "We Are Young". School bullying is also a big social topic in North America. There are many books and movies that contain scenes of school bullying.

But in this book, the two teenagers face the coldness alone, but their mutual protection is quite touching, and the writing is also very beautiful.

The ending of the tragedy left people with regret, but also hesitation and reflection.

Henry intends to recommend this masterpiece of Huaguo teenagers to his students, hoping that a book written by a foreign peer can give them a warning.

Like Henry, many European and American readers bought Shanhe's novels out of curiosity, and after reading them, they couldn't help recommending them to their surroundings.

In the first week, "We Are Young" sold nearly [-] copies in North America and nearly [-] copies in Europe.

"A Match Made in Heaven" has [-] copies in North America and nearly [-] copies in Europe.

"We Are Young" has an excellent reputation, while "A Couple Born" is not so good.

This data is 60.00% higher than the expectations of Scholars Publishing House. Their expectations are [-] copies of "We Are Young" and [-] copies of "Natural Couple".

After the Scholar Publishing House has successfully tested the water, it plans to increase resource investment in newspapers and magazines, and continue to increase publicity efforts in order to obtain better data next week.

When the news spread back to China, Qu Ling was overjoyed, and hurriedly called Shan He, who was out of school at noon, to the publishing house.

"Frank called, Xiaohe, the sales of your two books in Europe and America exceeded the expectations of Scholars Publishing House by more than half!" Qu Ling said happily to Shanhe.

"How many volumes are there specifically?" Shanhe asked.

""We Are Young" is 50 in North America and 30 in Europe. "A Couple Made in China" is not as good, with [-] in North America and [-] in Europe. Frank said that both books have a good reputation, and "Our Youth" is even better! The first month in Europe and America It is estimated that it can break [-] copies, and [-] copies of "A Couple Made in China" should not be a problem."

After listening to Shanhe, he smiled happily, "Aunt Qu, I have opened up the way to Europe and the United States! The next book should be better, and the copyright of film adaptations in Europe and America will probably be picked up soon."

"Xiaohe, congratulations!"

"Happy together!"

After the two congratulated each other, Qu Ling asked about the recent topic of the Hope Project, "After the documentary of the Hope Project was broadcast, and your reportage, it has attracted a lot of attention. I have already received many interviews from the media. Filing, what are you going to do with it?"

Shanhe stood up and poured a glass of water, "I will cooperate with the requirements of the Youth Foundation and Project Hope Office, and the others will not participate!"

"You occupy a lot of space in the documentary. It will be broadcast on CCTV [-]. I guess you will receive an interview invitation from CCTV soon!" Qu Ling reminded Shan Hedao.

Shanhe pondered for a moment, "I can't refuse CCTV's interview. It shouldn't be so soon. CCTV can't wait to see the social response first!"

"Anyway, you should be careful, don't be like Han Han, he is notorious now, but fortunately, he has a good impression on the readers, otherwise he will cry!" Qu Ling reminded.

Shanhe laughed after hearing this, "That guy Lao Han is really full of firepower. I think those seniors are very angry with him!"

"I can't persuade him anymore, just let him go! He has already recited the nickname of the rebellious boy!"

Twenty days passed quickly, and the European and American first-month sales data of Shanhe's two books were transmitted to Shanhe.

The total sales volume of "A Couple Born" in Europe and America exceeded 30, reaching 32 copies.

The total sales of "We Are Young" in Europe and America exceeded 55 copies.

The book market in Europe and the United States is relatively complete, and the overall sales volume is much larger than that in China. However, Shanhe's achievements have been considered an instant success in Europe and the United States. Even in European and American circles, he is also a well-known best-selling author.

What surprised Shanhe was that the copyright of the adaptation of "A Couple Born" was chosen by Disney. They were very interested in this novel, and even planned to send people to China to negotiate.

There were also film and television companies involved in "We Are Young", but their intentions were not strong.

Sure enough, the more popular the theme of the family carnival, the more popular it is with European and American film and television companies. Can "We Are Young" only be made into literary films?

The first draft of "Send You A Little Red Flower" has been revised, and Qu Ling didn't find any faults. The draft will be finalized next month, and the time of publication and release will be determined by Qu Ling.

The news that Shanhe's novels were selling well in the European and American markets soon spread throughout the country. Major newspapers and magazines welcomed this kind of news that promoted our country's prestige, and wrote articles one after another to publicize Shanhe's achievements.

Modu TV also reported this news in Modu News, which made Shanhe a world-famous writer in everyone's eyes!

The broadcast of CCTV documentaries and the publication of Shanhe reportage have attracted public attention, and many young people have actively participated in volunteer or teaching activities.

Shanhe's performance in the documentary has been recognized and praised by the public. He was already at the forefront of public attention, and now there is news that the novel is gaining popularity overseas. Suddenly, Shanhe is at the forefront of the limelight again.

He is now basically used to being chased and intercepted by reporters, and has learned how to avoid the reporters' sight.

He would never go through the front door after school, and the head teacher even gave him a key to the back door, which can be regarded as going through the back door openly!
At noon that day, Shanhe and Hu Ge were opening the back door when Shanhe's phone rang.Shanhe threw the key to Hu Ge and picked up the phone.

"Hello, who is it?"

"Aunt Qu, Xiaohe, you have received not one, but two interview invitations from CCTV. One is an interview with Bai Yansong, a special program on student aid in Eastern Space, and the other is an invitation from the "Dialogue" column team. Han Han also received an invitation from the "Dialogue" column team!"

"Ah!" Shanhe was a little dumbfounded. He could accept Bai Yansong, which was considered a high-end interview. How could he be invited to the "Dialogue" column? He had an impression of that column in his previous life.
"Xiao He, Xiao He, are you listening?"

Shanhe was woken up by Qu Ling's voice on the phone: "I'm listening, Aunt Qu, when will you go to the capital?"

"In two days, I will take you and Han Han together!"

"Okay, it's okay, I'll hang up."

Shanhe put down his phone, still a little stunned.

After Hu Ge opened the door, he saw that something was wrong with Shanhe, and asked, "Whose phone is it? What happened?"

Shan He looked up at Hu Ge and said, "Both Lao Han and I have received interview invitations from CCTV!"

Hu Ge suddenly jumped up, "You two are really monsters, you are going to be on CCTV! What program?"

"The "Dialogue" program team invited us both, and I have an exclusive interview." Shanhe replied.

"Beasts, two programs! Hey, "Dialogue" invited the two of you to be on the program together, it's tricky!" Hu Ge keenly sensed something was wrong.

Shanhe smiled helplessly, "I guess he wanted to make an analogy between the two of us. Old Han is miserable, and he might be criticized. Maybe he wants us to have a fight!"

"Haha~" Hu Ge laughed gloatingly, "Old Han deserves it, he spouts everywhere, the newspapers, magazines, and online chat rooms he read at your house last time are all the results of his spouting! Anyway, he also It doesn’t matter, just criticize and criticize, Lao Han won’t lose a hair!”

"That's right. Maybe Old Han will become even more popular after being criticized!"
