Zhang Xuan asked nervously, "How are your grades?"
"pretty good!"
"Tell me now."
Xie Qi said: "Because of the drafting of the first volume and the vigorous promotion of Penguin Publishing House for a month, it was listed in 59 countries and regions around the world yesterday, and 1.91 million copies were sold in one day."
Zhang Xuan was taken aback, "Sell so much in one day? Did you make a mistake?"
Xie Qi glanced at the data: "Yes, there are so many, a full 580,000 copies more than the first volume of the first release day."
Said, Xie Qi lost another sentence: "I heard that the one from the White House immediately ordered the assistant to buy it. I watched it in the office for almost 2 hours yesterday."
Zhang Xuan was interested: "How do you know? The media has reported it?"
Xie Qi said excitedly: "Reporting? More than reporting! European and American media are going crazy.
After his assistant leaked the news, yesterday the US President, at the end of the news interview, faced the reporter's question and publicly said that "A Song of Ice and Fire" is very good, it is worth watching, I recommend everyone to watch it. "
Zhang Xuan grinned happily.
This fucking! Even the President of the United States personally went out to push books for himself?
Is this the first in history?
In fact, as an oriental, he is more willing to see his own book who said he likes his book, but he just thought about it, that is impossible, and the national conditions are different.
1.91 million copies, this is considered a lot of accumulation, right?
After half a year of waiting, readers around the world gave him a surprise and set a new record!
His mind was buzzing, as if he saw around 2010, those people lined up to buy iPhones.
When he mentioned the iPhone, his excitement stagnated.
In fact, in his vision, the mobile phone is a very good industry, but he has experienced the later generations and understands that in addition to the system, the mobile phone cannot escape the chip.
This is a bit embarrassing. It seems that if you want to do something high-tech, you can hardly get around the chip.
You can't really force yourself to make chips, right?
The project is too big, the difficulty is too high, and I don’t understand it very well, just thinking about it makes me feel intimidated.
Hey, annoying, he is really interested in the mobile phone route.
Wandering around the campus, accidentally bumped into Li Zheng and his Xin Huan elementary school **** the grass.
"Xuan, Brother Xuan." Li Zheng quickly pulled out his hand.
"Ah? The weather is good today, the sky is full of moon and stars..." Zhang Xuan pretended not to hear or see it, looked up at the sky, and walked over leisurely with small hands behind his back.
Li Zheng's cheek muscles were shaking violently, he wanted to laugh and cry.
The junior patted Li Zheng: "You're going to die, you said don't come here."
Li Zheng asked: "Then let's open a room?"
"Who opened a room with you! If you don't have a room with you, you have only been dating for 2 months, and you said that you have a room 8 times. Are you talking about your relationship with me? Or are you showing me?"
"I'm trying shoes on my feet. Only the right shoes can last a long time."
"Inappropriate?"
"If it doesn't suit you, you will leave early." Li Zheng insisted that he looks outstanding, this girl has gone, and the next girl will wait, afraid of a ball.
When came to the library, Zhang Xuan found Du Shuangling, Wen Hui and Zou Qingzhu.
"Why are you here?" Du Shuangling asked in a low voice.
"I'll pick you up." Zhang Xuan said.
Du Shuangling asked worriedly: "Didn't you say that you were going to write tonight, it's not going well?"
Hearing this, Wen Hui and Zou Qingzhu both looked up at him.
Zhang Xuan shook his head gently: "It's still not long before the fire."
But without waiting for Du Shuangling to speak, the old man changed the subject and said, "The results of the new book came out on the first day, 1.91 million."
"Ah? So much?" Du Shuangling covered her mouth and exclaimed in a low voice, her face full of disbelief.
"Of course, don't even look at my husband."
He blinked, turned his head and said to Zou Qingzhu, "Comrade Qingzhu, tomorrow is the weekend, let's have a hot pot supper tonight, and the four of us will open a bottle of Romanée Conti to celebrate."
Zou Qingzhu knew through Wenhui that the wine was expensive, and immediately agreed happily.
Pack up and go home, stop reading. Although it's only after 8 o'clock, what do you think of this situation?
Du Shuangling's heart is no longer here, and Zou Qingzhu is also thinking about what hot pot to eat?
Wenhui glanced at the three of them quietly, smiled knowingly, took the books and followed them out of the library.
The next day, the national media was boiling again, reporting Zhang Xuan's feat one after another.
China Youth Daily: "The Writers' March, the daily sales of 1.91 million copies set a new record! 》
People x Daily: "The world's best-selling author, with a daily income of 112 million! 》
Shanghai Xinmin Evening News: "Conquer the West! The President of the United States will push the book! 》
Zhang Xuan was dazzled by reading the newspaper while eating noodles.
The living room was surprisingly quiet at this time.
Du Shuangling, Wen Hui, and Zou Qingzhu each held a newspaper, and they were fascinated.
Shanghai Stock Exchange.
Wen Yu had a stack of newspapers piled up in front of her, and I saw her fiddling with a calculator:
1.1+2.2+5.5+33+29+1.12=71.92
71.92! ! !
Holding the computer for a while, Wen Yu took a deep breath and said to Zhou Yi next to him:
"Not counting domestic book revenue, two years! Zhang Xuan earned 7.2 billion from abroad in just two years!"
Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment, reached out to take a look at the calculator, and said after a long time, "You still have this leisurely statistic?"
Wenyu said: "It's not like you don't know about my job, when you are busy, you are very busy, and when you are free, you are very busy.
When I was fine, I became curious. I really didn’t know it, but I was frightened when I finished the calculation. 7.2 billion! Wherever he goes, he is a rich man, the key is his age. "
Zhou Yi didn't say anything. In front of this set of numbers, she had to admit that this person made money as easily as drinking soup!
Simply incredible!
Wen Yu glanced at the old man who was watching TV in the living room, and asked quietly, "Sister-in-law, you won't really force Huihui to go back to Shanghai for graduate school, will you?"
Zhou Yi also glanced in the direction of the living room: "Your brother is silent on this matter, I am alone and weak."
Thinking of the respect eldest brother had for the old man, Wen Yu was also very weak and asked, "Then what do you think?"
Zhou Yi shook her head: "I have no idea. I respect Huihui's opinion, she can go to graduate school wherever she wants.
But the old man's starting point is also good, not afraid of ten thousand, just in case, I can understand. "
These words have been made very clear, and Wen Yu, who was unwilling, stopped talking. After throwing the computer to Lin Yuansheng, who was staring at him, he picked up the Xinmin Evening News and read it again.
Don't know why?
Every time I read the news about Zhang Xuan, Wen Yu felt excited, just like that.
In her opinion, what does it mean to be competent?
You can only earn money from Westerners.
…
Shao City, Qianzhen Health Center.
"Director, newspaper." Xiaohong probed his head and opened the door.
"Oh, okay, let's put it there." Ai Qing, in a white lab coat, was busy prescribing medicine for the patient.
Xiaohong put the newspaper in front of Ai Qing, and jokingly stretched out his hand: "Director, today is a good day."
Ai Qing was stunned, a little puzzled.
But when he saw the news headline the next second, he immediately took out a handful of money and put it in her hand, and said happily, "Go buy it, and give me two wedding candies later."
"Okay!" Xiaohong happily took the money and left.
Earn more than 100 million a day!
Ai Qing picked up the newspaper, everyone went numb.
Ai Qing is numb, and Ruan Xiuqin from Shangcun is even more numb.
The village party secretary went to the town early in the morning to do errands and heard someone talking about how much money great writers made?
I found out what was going on after I inquired, and then I hurriedly bought a few newspapers and went home after finishing my work.
In the crowded villa, the village party secretary and other Ruan Xiuqin calmed down before thinking about the plan to build a new dam in the village.
Because there has been a lot of rain in recent years, one dam alone is not enough. Every summer, many paddy fields are flooded. Not to mention the rice grains are not harvested, and the rows of fields are washed away.
So plan to build a new dam upstream.
For this matter, the village party secretary has always had ideas, and the villagers have ideas, but it is not easy to speak rashly.
Ruan Xiuqin knew this for a long time and asked, "How much does it cost?"
The village party secretary hesitated for a while and said, "Xiuqin, it's still 49,000."
Ruan Xiuqin nodded, but did not agree immediately, saying that she would discuss with her son.
Hearing this tone, everyone was relieved, and they all knew that Ruan Xiuqin had agreed, but the money was earned by his son, so let’s talk about it.
…
Beijing, Peking University.
Mi Jian read the newspaper and said to Lu Shiyu, "Let's go, let's go have dinner."
Lu Shiyu took her arm: "Today is a big happy event for your lover, invite me to a big meal."
Mi smiled and said, "I invite you."
Walking out of the dormitory, Lu Shiyu couldn't help but ask, "Is it a great sense of accomplishment to find such an excellent boyfriend?"
Michie said, "This is his money."
Lu Shiyu said, "Is it yours sooner or later?"
Mi didn't feel good to refute, so he could only say: "His career is so big, this money is not enough."
Lu Shiyu thought about the report in the newspaper and felt reasonable: "When will he come to the capital? Our dormitory is looking forward to him having a big meal."
Over the past few years, Mi Jian's ears were almost worn down by the words, and he said, "Come here next time, I'll ask him to invite him."
is also at Peking University.
Seagate quietly read the newspaper.
Jiaojiao silently observed her expression on the side. Seeing that Seagate kept her same expression after reading the newspaper, she couldn't bear it any longer:
"Seagate, truth be told, you really didn't stay with this great writer that night?"
Seagate carefully put the newspaper on the bed, "No."
Jiaojiao sighed: "Hey, you've really lost a lot of money. You've lost a lot of money. For me, I'll give him a free body to sleep with."
Seagate said with a sad face: "How good are you? I'm really worried about your future Darling."
…
A base in Shanghai Stock Exchange.
Liu Bei finished filming a scene and joked with Zhang Wen: "Today's reshoots are over, and I haven't seen your great writer friend come to visit the class. You weren't bragging last time, right?"
Zhang Wen turned his head and asked the bald Ge: "Tell her, have I bragged?"
The bald-headed Ge said slowly, "Liu Bei, this unreliable thing really didn't fool you this time. The film and television company has been established, and that one has joined."
Liu Bei asked: "Really?"
Zhang Wen patted his chest and said loudly, "Of course."
then looked at Liu Bei: "I gave you the opportunity to see if you can grasp it."
Big Steel Tooth came over and glanced at his leg shape: "I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to grasp!"
"Hahaha!"
Zhang Wen and Bald Ge laughed at the same time.
The outside media went crazy and the public opinion exploded. Zhang Xuan, who was the party involved, was very calm.
After dinner, turn off the phone, make a pot of tea, sit by the window and look at the scenery, thinking about things and how to write "the world".
"Jingle bell jingle bell. Jingle bell."
The landline in the living room rang suddenly.
Hearing the sound, the three women in the living room who were watching VCDs all looked at the landline.
Du Shuangling responded quickly and quickly got up and picked up the receiver: "Hello."
“hello” speaks English opposite.
These series of English made Du Shuangling completely stupid. His face that was calm just now was instantly flushed, his right hand pressed his small heart, and he said excitedly in English:
"Justamoment, please."
Then put the receiver aside and trotted into the study: "Dear! Phone! Phone!"
Zhang Xuan glanced at the phone that was turned off, then turned back and asked, "Whose?"
Du Shuangling rushed over and hugged him, raised his head and said with a smile, "It's from the World Science Fiction Association, Hugo Award!"
