Chapter 229
Compared with Tengfei's sales, the reputation of this novel is gradually spreading. Many mature and persistent readers are unwilling to spend money to buy bad books. They like to wait until the real evaluation is released before buying them.
Some more trustworthy book reviewers columns or newspapers are the references of these people. They usually refer to buying works recommended by book reviewers, probably because their reading tastes are relatively consistent.
I originally thought it was a two-man competition, but now it seems that the sales of "Night School" still continue to lead. Even with the help of BBC, it did not offset too much!
The sales of "Night School" fell on the second day, reaching the level of 31,000 copies, but it still led the North American new book list with weekly sales of 79,000 copies.
When there are no super works, this achievement is stable as the first.
Although "Detective Sherlock" has reached the fifth place, it seems that it cannot threaten the top spot of "Night School" in a short period of time.
In the battle between the two detectives, it seems that Jack Liqi will win slightly, while Sherlock Holmes will be a little inferior in this situation.
At this time, there seems to be no hope for the top leader. Unless you can make a big news, the new book list will be inferior!
Now Zhang Chu's works can be said to be fighting on the third line, and the entire Menglong Culture Media is busy with his works.
In addition to the British market's steady victory and the US market is struggling to move forward, his work "Boyant Pi" will also meet domestic audiences next week.
At the same time, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan will also release his traditional version one after another. It seems that when he wakes up, the whole world is watching his works.
...
"What a pity, it would be great if Zhang Chu's book could go further. The British list is almost sure to win, and the gap in the United States is still quite large."
"Anyway, it's already considered a history to be a success, and it doesn't matter whether you win the championship or not."
"But it's obviously better to have a championship."
"What can I do now? I have sent a message to my friend studying in the United States and asked him to help promote it."
"I want to buy an e-book on Amazon in the United States to support it, but unfortunately the exchange rate is too expensive! It costs about 60 or 70 yuan per book, and I really can't afford it!"
"Yes, books in the UK and the US are more expensive, but their income is high, so naturally there is no such problem."
Zhang Chu's book fans spontaneously organized a ranking group, imitating the kind of albums released by Korean celebrities, and raised funds to buy American versions of works, one for collection and the other for special support.
Wang Qiang works as an exchange student at Cornell, the United States. This is the only public-private school among the Ivy League schools. He is also a member of the ranking group!
Here he gathered with many Chinese students to help domestic members purchase physical books and then send them back without charging any purchasing fees.
"Today I bought 5 books at Banno Bookstore. Where are you?" Wang Qiang signaled the shopping bags in his hand. In order to make it look better during the list statistics, they bought books from different bookstores separately.
Liu Lu, a tall girl with long hair, replied: "I bought three books from Bodes, and they said the inventory was not much."
"The folletts in the school have been sold out. It is said that not only are we Chinese people buying them, but also many Asian and local students are selling them."
"Yes, when I went to B&N just now, I saw a black boy asking, and Zhang Chu's work should be quite attractive this time!"
They are spontaneous behaviors that are not only helping domestic book fans purchase American books, but also promoting "Sherlock" for free on campus, so that more people can know that this book exists.
The success of this book is inseparable from everyone who cares about it!
...
When Yanjing City was shrouded in night, all kinds of neon lights lit up and turned into a city that never sleeps.
Tonight is a fixed video chat day. No matter what Zhang Chu does, he has to spare time. This is my mother Chu Lan’s explanation, and he has to chat video once a week.
Zhang Chu, who is over thirty years old, thinks this thing is too stupid. Fortunately, if he is seen by his classmates in the rented house, he might be laughed like something.
But he couldn't resist. If Ms. Chu Lan suddenly flew to the school, the picture would be too beautiful and dare not imagine!
"Have you eaten?" Zhang Chu planned to take the initiative, and he threw out a series of questions, "How is the job? Are you busy in the Xindian? Do you have time to go out and play?"
Zhang Bowen yawned over there and said, "Your mom is going to play mahjong. If you are not here, I will entrust me to have a video chat with you."
It was indeed my own mother. She planned her family chat day, but she ended up playing mahjong by herself, leaving them staring at each other.
Zhang Chu hesitated for a moment, and he complained: "What's there to talk about? She actually went to play mahjong again!"
"The new store has opened, and now it seems that the traffic of customers is quite large. I am going to wait for you to have winter vacation and let you take the time to come here to sign autographs, and you will definitely become a hit."
When Zhang Bowen talked about his career, he was so energetic, "By the way, I will pay you back the money for buying a shop in two days. You can use it to invest in finance yourself, or buy a house in Yanjing."
"The store's business is so good?" Zhang Chu couldn't believe it. "I only made back the more than 8 million yuan I bought in the shop in just a few days? What kind of book are you selling!"
At the beginning, Zhang Chu handed over his royalties and copyright transfer fees to his family. Jiangcheng is at least a provincial capital city, and a shop with a price of more than 8 million yuan is quite cheap.
Zhang Bowen called out, "You will know in two days. Your dad will give you a surprise!"
"But don't be frightened. My heart can't stand the tossing." Zhang Chu urged, "What the hell is going on? Let's listen!"
"Anyway, you'll know it when you read the news." Zhang Bowen kept it in a silence, "Brothers who fight tigers, you still need father and son soldiers to go into battle. Your father, I'm not old!"
Zhang Chu wanted to know what exactly made his father earn millions of RMB in one go. He touched his chin and searched carefully in his head, "Can our hometown be demolished? Can we still compensate for so much money now?"
For ordinary people, if they want to get rich overnight, it seems that they can only relocate, but the compensation for relocated these days is getting smaller and smaller.
"Or else you won the lottery by buying sports lottery? Or did you win the lottery by buying welfare lottery? Or did you sell me?"
One by one, guesses emerged from Zhang Chu's mouth.
Zhang Bowen shook his head and said proudly: "You definitely can't guess it, so you'd better read the news!"
After saying that, he cut off the video call, which made Zhang Chu, who was far away in Yanjing, extremely curious. Millions of RMB are not that easy to make!
