Chapter 1157: Mentality
"No Survivors", which has sold more than 100 million copies on the earth and has been adapted countless times, seems to be a matter of course and has become popular in this world.
In the first week on the shelves, the results can only be said to be more conspicuous.
Needless to say, the word Lao Bai is full of fans in China, and I don't know how many people have started Amway before the book is on the shelves. Therefore, the publicity of the light wheel publishing house is easy, and the first-week sales of 1.1 million are just reaching excellent. And this is because of the subject matter of this book, it is only Lao Bai's second reasoning, if it is martial arts, the light wheel even dares to print five million copies for the first time!
However, Seal Press is clearly more confident in the name Laobai, and has selected a few countries for key promotion.
The cost of hype in places like the UK and North America was too high, and Seal Press ended up choosing two English-speaking countries, Australia and New Zealand, to considerable effect. As for Switzerland, it was a complete accident, and after the sales came out, the people at the publishing house were also a little confused, and they didn't understand how the place where not a penny of publicity money was spent was ranked first.
However, the sales volume of the three countries is the first, which is already very satisfying.
At least Seal Press is confident that it will continue to ramp up its propaganda efforts in Europe and North America, and with the examples of three countries, it can also say something real when it comes to publicity......
……
"Director Sun, do you have a feeling that you are too mature for yourself?"
After reading the report on the Internet excitedly, Ye Xing looked at Sun Peng, who had a calm face, with a strange expression, hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't help but ask.
After listening to Ye Xing's words, Sun Peng was immediately happy: "Too mature? What does that mean? ”
"Meaning, your reaction was not at all what he expected!"
At this time, Lin Na, who had already finished lunch next to her, came over and said with a smile: "Director Sun, I remember that you are just thirty years old, right?" If it were other thirty-year-olds...... No, let alone thirty years old, it's forty years old, fifty years old, if you hear that your new book has been the best-selling person for three consecutive weeks and has reached the top of the British book charts, not to mention jumping up excitedly, at least you will clench your fists excitedly and shout nice, right? ”
Lin Na, who brought a gesture, said it so vividly that Sun Peng immediately saw the scene of himself waving his fist and shouting "nice" in front of him.
Well......
Tilting his head and thinking for a while, Sun Peng smiled dumbly.
He understood what Ye Xing and Lin Na meant, it was nothing more than that his new book "No One Survived" performed very well. The week after it was first put on the shelves was nothing, and it was a matter of course to win the championship in China, and although the record of the early 1 million was not broken, it was quite impressive. And Australia's three other countries to the top seem to be full of chance, after all, Australia's highest sales volume is only a 100,000-level number, which is too far behind the domestic more than one million.
But in just two weeks, the situation changed dramatically!
As Seal Press continued to increase its publicity efforts, spreading the news of the sales championship in three Western countries everywhere, and those fans of Laobai were also crazy about Amway on various social media, "No One Left Alive" quickly became a hit in the second week of its release, and successfully squeezed into the top 20 of the book sales list in the United States, and the eighth in the United Kingdom!
At the end of the third week, the United States squeezed into the top five and finished in fourth place, while the British side rushed straight to the top of the championship!
There is no doubt that this is a new milestone for Chinese writers!
So not only did the Seal Publishing House start to frantically spend money on propaganda in the United States, ready to rush to the top of the list, the domestic Light Wheel Publishing House also opened a "regardless of the upper limit" publicity budget, on the one hand, it printed five million copies of the Chinese version in one go, and added three million copies of "Murder on the Western Express", and at the same time, it urged the new books in Japanese, South Korean and Southeast Asian Chinese versions that have been translated to be put on the shelves as soon as possible to catch up with this wave of popularity!
As for the Internet, there is no need to mention it, Lao Bai's fans are the same as the festival!
In this case, the average writer ...... No, even the top writers are probably going to have to go around the study in a few circles excitedly, and then have a press conference or something, thank you for this, thank you for that, right?
But after listening to the news, Lao Bai made Ye Xing feel confused.
He knew that Sun Peng had risen to prominence since he became famous as a teenager, and he had become a world-class screenwriter and musician in just a few years, and he was almost the top writer as a writer, which only needs to be seen by looking at the sales of his works. But a thirty-year-old young man, after hearing such good news, just smiled slightly, nodded and said thank you?
This, this completely subverts Ye Xing's cognition, okay?
So after understanding what Ye Xing meant, Sun Peng smiled and said, "Then what do you think I should do?" first yelled and ran around the crew, and then disbanded you and just held a press conference to blow a wave? ”
"Uh......"
"To be honest, I'm really happy."
Without waiting for Ye Xing to explain anything, Sun Peng shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "After all, it's a good thing, so it's naturally worth being happy, but you want to say that I'm as excited as you imagined...... I'm sorry, but it didn't get to that point. But I think it has nothing to do with age, and it has nothing to do with maturity or anything, it's just a personal mentality. ”
Sun Peng said this on his lips, and he thought so in his heart.
It's just that looking at Ye Xing's strange eyes at this moment, Sun Peng suddenly thought: "Is this mentality of mine caused by the accumulation of the two lifetimes combined?" Or rather, it's because of ...... Anyway, crossing this kind of fucking thing has happened to me, what else is unacceptable? That's how it should be, right? ”
"Hee-hee, don't think about the little star!"
At this time, Lin Na suddenly put her right arm on Ye Xing's shoulder, and said with a smile: "You don't have to use your own way of thinking to measure others, especially don't measure a big man like Teacher Lao Bai!" ”
After filming together for a few weeks, Lin Na obviously got acquainted with many people.
For example, Ye Xing, who is also one of the three protagonists, Wang Zhiyu doesn't mention the cold to this little brother in the film industry, except for the filming, he basically doesn't deal with it, but Lin Na doesn't care about that, it only took three days to get acquainted with it thoroughly, and now Xiaoxing, Xingzai, Xingbao or something are even more open-mouthed, without any scruples at all.
Even Sun Peng can experience the enthusiasm and magic of this woman.
So just when Ye Xing was leaning on Lin Na's warm delicate body, and his face was red and his ears were red, Lin Na then smiled: "Don't say how many sets of Teacher Bai's books have been sold, just say that a person who can treat the Grammys and Oscars as New Year's parties and get invitations every year cares about the top of the sales list?" Little star, when you become a superstar in the future, you will understand everything......"
