Readers' love for "Ambren Hunter" prompted them to label the novel "Chinese version of "The Old Man and the Sea".

As the influence of novels continues to ferment, this spontaneous behavior has also gained recognition from more readers, but this call among readers has been opposed by many knowledgeable people in the literary world.

In the eyes of many critics, "Ambren Hunter" is indeed similar to "The Old Man and the Sea" in plot setting and characterization.

For example, the protagonist must face many dangers, such as perseverance and struggle in difficulties.

But besides these similarities, "Ambren Hunter" and "The Old Man and the Sea" are more different.

In "The Old Man and the Sea", whether it is the difficulties or dangers of San Diego, he chooses more actively to prove himself.

In "Ambren, the Hunter", Ambren, a taciturn hunter, is willing to risk his life for a promise.

In "The Old Man and the Sea", Santiago is a lone hero, and even to bring back a fish skeleton, he has to persevere.

In "Ambren, the Hunter", Ambren has a partner, his companion is his reindeer and hound, who he regards as comrades who are trusting to life and death.

The two have essential differences in values, one is typical American individual heroism, and the other is Chinese collectivism and sacrifice spirit, which also reflects the different ideology of China and the United States.

A post titled "From the

The commentary article from "Looking at the Chinese Classical Chivalrous Spirit" reveals the core of this novel very well.

"Ambren's meaning in Oroqen's words is 'quiet'. As his name suggests, the taciturn Ambren never boasted or spoke big truths, but practiced with his actions "respecting righteousness and keeping faith, and not willing to die without hesitation."

"The classical chivalrous spirit."

He regards promises more than life, but does not underestimate life. He respects life and nature.

The spirit of the character Ambren inspired people to persevere and fight in difficulties, and also inspired us to think deeply about the relationship between man and nature.

In the fight and confrontation with blizzards, wolves, tigers and hunger, the novel not only shows human desire to conquer nature, but also reflects the power and invincibility of nature.

This makes readers have to reflect on the status and role of human beings in front of nature, and how to realize their own value on the basis of respecting nature—"

Viewing the Chinese Classical Chivalrous Spirit is a relatively early review of "Hunter Ambren" by the critical community. After the article was published, it was recognized by many readers.

Readers spontaneously define "Ambren Hunter" as "Chinese version of "The Old Man and the Sea". Some people are happy that "Ambren Hunter" can be compared with "The Old Man and the Sea", but they also vaguely feel that something is wrong.

, but I can't say it.

After reading the analysis of this article, everyone finally understood what was wrong.

It turns out that the value orientations behind these two novels are different. Of course, this does not mean that "The Old Man and the Sea" is not good. On the contrary, the values ​​conveyed by "The Old Man and the Sea" have universal values.

However, "Ambren Hunter" has a more classical Chinese temperament and is more in line with the aesthetics of the Chinese.

A full month after the publication of "Contemporary" was released, the single-line version of "Hunter Ambren" was launched.

The sales of the novel were not affected by the magazine's first release at all. Instead, due to its outstanding reputation, the sales of the novel exceeded 400,000 copies in half a month after it was launched.

Bookstores in many places in China have even seen long queues of readers rushing to buy books.

In the following month, the novels were published in Wandao, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and other regions and countries, and all gained good reputation and sales.

In addition, translations from Japan, the United States, France and other countries are also being reviewed and translated in full swing, and are expected to be published one after another within half a year.

In the blink of an eye, it was early August. Lin Chaoyang and his wife rarely took their two children to the cinema to watch a movie together.

On June 9, Universal Pictures' $63 million investment of science fiction thriller "Jurassic Park" premiered in the United States.

With its shocking audio-visual effects, it scored a terrifying score of 81.7 million in the first week.

The second week of local release begins, and the film also begins to be released around the world.

On July 29, "Jurassic Park" was released in Xiangjiang.

Continuing the film's strong performance in other countries, "Jurassic Park" was released in Xiangjiang for only three days, with a box office of over 10 million, which caused the Xiangjiang media to exclaim that "the live dinosaurs in Hollywood hit Hong Kong."

It’s not because of the Xiangjiang media’s failure to comply. For many years, Xiangjiang films have been developing vigorously and have been called “Oriental Hollywood” by the outside world. The people of Xiangjiang are also so self-righteous.

Hollywood blockbusters such as "Terminator" and "Raiders of the Lost Ark" have not been released in Xiangjiang in recent years. The special effects are stronger than those of Xiangjiang movies, but the action scenes are far less than those of Xiangjiang movies, which gives Xiangjiang audiences and media the feeling

So that's the matter.

Now, "Jurassic Park" truly shows the real "special effects blockbuster" to the Hong Kong audience.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex slowly appeared on a rainy night when the typhoon came, like a tyrant coming.

When a giant like a dinosaur appeared on the big screen with such flesh and blood, his heavy breathing, rapid movements, and agile eyes made people suspect that the director just took out some animal in the zoo and shot it directly.

The unimaginable and extremely real scene brings the audience a shocking feeling, which is undoubtedly a huge impact on cognition and experience. The immersive feeling is destined to be unforgettable to all viewers in their lives.

During the movie, the two little guys screamed in surprise, but they kept watching without blinking.

In addition to being afraid, they would grab Lin Chaoyang's hand and block it in front of them, but they couldn't help but slid their fingers and continued to watch it. After the movie ended, the two of them were still unsatisfied and surrounded their parents happily, chattering about what they had just watched.

Movie.

"Dad, Tyrannosaurus Rex is so handsome. Please buy me a Tyrannosaurus Rex model." Dongdong begged.

"Jurassic Park" is a key project of Universal Pictures this year. It not only invested huge production and publicity costs, but also spent 65 million US dollars to reach cooperation with many countries and regions around the world.

Used to manufacture and sell Jurassic Park peripheral products, including Jurassic Park video games, toys and books.

The publisher of "Jurassic Park" released in Xiangjiang is Lin's Pictures, and the sales of the surrounding are Yulang.

It’s not that Tao Yushu has to take advantage of the enemy. She just thinks that since it is unstoppable, it’s better to work together to share a cup with the extremely brave attitude of "Jurassic Park". The box office may break the film history record of Xiangjiang movies. Lin is responsible for the theater and

The issuance, coupled with the peripheral sales of Yulang Institution, the harvest will not be less.

Lin Chaoyang and his family watched a movie in Taikoo City, where Yulang ACG happens to be here.

When I arrived at the store, I asked my two children to choose toys by themselves. Tao Yushu observed the changes in the surrounding stores now. The first feeling was that the store had become wider.

In fact, it is not that the store has become wider, but that the display racks and surrounding types have become fewer.

Yulang's organization is now nominally responsible for Tao Yushu, but in fact it has been handed over to Tao Yumo for management.

After Tao Yumo took power, he made considerable reforms to Yulang ACG.

First of all, employees have stricter performance standards, and secondly, they have cut off a large number of derivatives with average sales and low profits in the surrounding stores, focusing only on products with large sales and high profits.

These measures have been implemented since the beginning of the year. After half a year of implementation, Yulang's agency's peripheral revenue increased by 15% year-on-year.

Of course, in addition to the benefits, there are also criticisms from grassroots employees and supply chains.

This also led to the fact that although Tao Yushu had not completely handed over the company to Tao Yumo, many people were already missing the time when Mrs. Lin was in charge of the family.

"Mom, I want to buy this!"

Yan Yan pointed at the display rack. The box on it was printed with several pink girl patterns. The packaging was exquisitely packaged, colorful and very eye-catching. The words "Beautiful Girls' Special Attack Team" were also printed on the top of the box.

Tao Yushu has a little impression of this name. It should be a girl cartoon released by Yulang institution last year. It tells the story of several girls with different personalities punishing evil and promoting good after school, and helping the strong and helping the weak.

The response after the comic was released was mediocre, and it was not taken seriously within the Yulang organization. According to normal circumstances, if the results of this "Beautiful Girls' Special Attack Team" did not improve much within a year, it would be forced to finish the next year.

.

But no one expected that the Yulang ACG was launched on the peripherals of "Beautiful Girls' Special Attack Team" at the end of the year, and the sales volume exceeded that of many popular comics.

This situation attracted the attention of the company. After some research, everyone found that many customers who bought the surrounding area had never read the original comics. The reason why they bought the surrounding area was entirely because of the exquisite style of the comics they inherited.

The style of "Beautiful Girls' Special Attack Team" belongs to the Japanese girl comic style, and the girls have beautiful images and different personalities, even the supporting characters and villains are beautiful.

Many boys and girls may not like reading comics, but they like the beautiful characters inside.

Two months ago, Yulang's agency, led by Tao Yumo, developed the novel marketing model of blind box collection cards, and the sales of "Beautiful Girls' Special Attack Team" were even more out of control.

Secretary Tao Yu remembered that she mentioned the last time she listened to Tao Yumo's report on her work, "The Beautiful Girls' Special Attack Team" in July

The new character Apollo made his debut in the latest episode, instantly attracting countless fans with his handsome appearance.

In order to get this character's cards, in just half a month, the blind boxes of "Beautiful Girls' Special Attack Team" sold 115,000 cards, setting a sales of HK$1.15 million.

Don’t underestimate the figure of HK$1.15 million, you should know that this is just a single derivative of a comic work, which is around half a month’s sales.

According to Tao Yumo, it should not be difficult for the peripheral sales of "Beautiful Girls' Special Attack Team" to exceed HK$40 million this year, and Yulang Institution will also earn a net profit of nearly HK$30 million.

In addition to manufacturing, logistics, marketing and other costs, it can actually have a net profit of 32 million yuan. The biggest contributor here is of course blind boxes.

Who would have thought that the most expensive blind box priced at HK$10 per unit is its gorgeous outer packaging, and the cost of the card is less than HK$0.3.

Tao Yushu, who made money from this black heart, felt a little uneasy.

She remembered Lin Chaoyang's previous evaluation of Tao Yumo: Yumo has the potential to be a capitalist than you.

Tao Yushu felt unwilling to accept it before, but now he has to admire Lin Chaoyang's keen eyes.

"What's the best card to buy? Is it okay for mom to buy you a Barbie doll?"

A thought flashed in his mind, Tao Yushu squatted down and said to Yan Yan.

"I just like this, this one looks good!"

Yan Yan, who is already eight years old, has a very positive idea, pointing at the gorgeous blind box, and is in a sure way.

Tao Yushu was about to preach to his daughter, and with a big hand, Lin Chaoyang's soft voice rang out.

"Buy, buy whatever Yan Yan likes."

Holding the blind box in his hand, Yan Yan smiled brightly, revealing the gap between his teeth.
