Chapter 658 Cultural phenomenon

It is not an exaggeration to describe the performance of "Da Vinci Code" in the global book market. After the first week's sales were so shocking, the sales of the next week did not fall to the bottom as others expected, but instead maintained steady growth!

Mainland China won the championship again and it still sold 1.9 million copies in seven days of the second week, setting a record for the highest sales in the next week. It is approaching its big brother "Ghost Blows Out the Light"'s annual sales champion bit by bit.

However, "Ghost Blows Out the Light" did not sit still. Both books were written by the same writer. Although they were not the same type, new readers still chose to buy Zhang Chu's old books!

One is a suspense and reasoning work full of Western art and religious history, and the other is a tomb robbery adventure novel with oriental characteristics. The two of them together exude endless charm, which makes readers fascinated.

In addition, after Yida Pictures announced the three starring actors of "Ghost Blows Out the Light", netizens' interests have been greatly enhanced!

The Mid-Golden School Captain started his adventure together. The three powerful actors, Chen Kun, Shu Qi and Huang Bo, were really surprising.

The actors of Hu Bayi, Wang Kaixuan, and Xue Li Yang have been arousing many speculations from the outside world. Until now, at the press conference, members of the three teams of the Touching School Prince finally revealed their true face!

They have everything from appearance, acting skills and popularity, which makes readers of the original novel almost have nothing to say.

In "Ghost Blows Out the Light", Hu Bayi dares to think, dares to break out, and dares to revolution. He is a real man who is fearless and upright, a soldier who has been on the battlefield, a desperate person who fights back and forth, and is also a ruffian who has experienced the test of life and death.

Chen Kun's style is extremely varied. He can be the romantic and handsome young master during the Republic of China, the unshaven Zhong Kui, or the eye-catching Eunuch Yuhuatian. It is not difficult for him to challenge Hu Bayi now. The heroic spirit of a soldier is combined with the mysterious feeling of tomb robbers.

As for Huang Bo, although he cannot be considered a fat man in terms of physical appearance, his acting skills are first-class and his comedy elements are natural. Playing Fatty Wang can definitely be extremely similar!

As a bay actor, Shu Qi has also played many roles in beating women. She is also a goddess-level figure with a skill in maintaining appearance, which is very consistent with Shirley Yang's setting of both sense and wisdom.

Yida Pictures has done its best this time. Not only is the starring cast strong, but all supporting roles are also characters with online acting skills. They strive to be realistic and scary in terms of styling, sets, props and special effects. Their theme park project starts with this movie!

It's not an exaggeration to say that this cast is a top-notch configuration in Chinese films. Several actors are among the best in the Middle Ages, and with the production cost of up to 150 million yuan, netizens are reluctant to expect it.

Perhaps this movie can impact the box office record of the novel adapted movie, and everyone is extremely optimistic about it, so that the sales of "Ghost Blows Out the Light: Jingjue Ancient City" soared a hundredfold in this week!

The three starring actors probably don’t have many die-hard fans, but they are very popular. The reliable lineup makes fans of the original novel very happy.

Looking at the movies adapted from other novels, the TV series was harmed by young and old traffic actresses, but I was all real actors with both appearance and strength. The gap should not be too big!

Many readers of other novels are particularly envious of Zhang Chu. Their favorite works are almost unrecognizable after being adapted, but every movie and TV series on Zhang Chu are extremely appropriate.

Even though the starring actor of the bbc version of "Sheroke" has a long face, the performance feels similar to that of Sherlock Holmes, and has been widely praised by movie fans.

In addition, the two actors in "The City of Psychological Sin" have now registered for the Golden Horse Awards. According to Bay Entertainment Media, they will definitely be shortlisted!

The casting of "Farewell My Concubine" that is being filmed has also attracted much attention, and I have almost never encountered any cheating.

This is probably because Zhang Chu saw many bad movies in his previous life, so he was extremely cautious when handling copyright transactions. Some unreliable companies would not sell even if they had high prices.

As his influence grew, his voice in copyright development became more and more powerful, so both the production team and the cast had the right to suggest or even veto, but it was rarely implemented.

Classic works that have worked hard to transport from the earth are not to increase the number of bad movies to this world!

The two-pronged approach of "Ghost Blows Out the Light" has once again reached the second place in the weekly sales list as a work that has been released for nearly eleven months.

If "The Da Vinci Code" hadn't performed too evilly, I'm afraid "Ghost Blows Out the Light" might have reached the first place, and its sales in a single week returned to the level of 620,000 copies.

Originally, everyone thought that this year's book sales champion was completely stable, and "Ghost Blows Out the Light" had a very big lead, but now it seems that it is very likely to be surpassed.

I chased four million in just two weeks, and there are still two whole months left. If it can continue to grow, it is still unknown who will win!

But no matter which book wins the championship, the honor belongs to Zhang Chu!

Not only is the sales of "Ghost Blowing the Light" ushering in growth, but "Pi's Fantasy Drift" has been read by foreign readers from the sea of ​​books.

This work that also discusses religion and human nature is a work that is popular because of the ending of two different survival stories, and has been reinterpreted by fans of "The Da Vinci Code".

As time goes by, this novel that once won the Booker Award once again appeared in everyone's sight!

With a similar reading experience, when I read the Da Vinci code, it was only at the end that Magdalene's corpse, that is, the Holy Grail, was buried in the Louvre.

It was not until the end that I realized that the fantasy survival drift written in the previous article was so bloody and terrifying!

When Random House began printing "Pi" again, they realized that this unexpected surprise could drive old books and drag them back to the top of the bestseller list. This was by no means an easy task.

People know Zhang Chu from "The Da Vinci Code", and now we will start to review his previous novels!

While the novel sales have been soaring, it has also aroused readers' enthusiasm for other novels of Zhang Chu, and even the historical, religious, art and art appreciation works related to the Da Vinci Code have also been favored by readers.

Why is this book so popular?

Scholars in the literary criticism circle have discussed the factors of its success, but no one can give an accurate answer, which has become a popular cultural phenomenon!
