Chapter 1059: Worried

BBC TV, Studio 4, Allen? Spalding squinted at the Chinese man in front of him.

As a host, he has long been accustomed to this job.

And for Allen, who loves his job, the most interesting thing is not to be able to stand in front of the TV camera glamorously, nor to accept the cheers of the audience every time, but to meet all kinds of celebrities every day - dignitaries, super-rich, celebrities......

The most interesting, or the most challenging, for him, is to discover their public side!

Therefore, on stage, he often uses the sharpest language to stimulate those guests, induce them to "lose their words", and sometimes even use the way to provoke the other party to achieve this goal. It's just that in the face of today's guests, Alan? Spalding, however, was a little numb, for the methods he had used to deal with those Orientals were not to be used lightly today.

Of course, this is not because of fear of the other side's power.

As one of the most well-known presenters in the UK, Alan? Spalding has never been afraid of anyone, even if the other party is the prime minister of the United Kingdom, or the dictator of a certain country, let alone a star from China.

Merely......

Thinking about everything he had inquired about before, the brilliant resume of this Chinese man, he had a toothache for a while.

The three-board axe of treating celebrities, ridiculing each other's works, belittling each other's strength, coupled with the most common trick for treating non-British and American stars, and despising the cultural influence of the other party's country, don't seem to work very well in front of this Chinese person, even with Allen? Spalding was reluctant to raise the slightest thought.

What's the difference between doing that and raising your hand to slap your face?

At least until you lose your mind, Alan? Spalding knew that if he were to ridicule a writer whose works were selling almost as much as the total number of books sold in England in the whole year; It is undoubtedly stupid to belittle a screenwriter who has won the box office with an animation, which is not much different from the total annual box office in the United Kingdom, or to underestimate a composer who has praised two superstars in the Chinese music scene and almost dominated the major charts in recent years.

As for cultural influence, although Alan thinks that English is still far ahead, but think about the performance of Huaxia in recent years, Allen? Spalding felt that on the premise of not hardpulling the relatives on the other side of the Atlantic, the British gentlemen had better keep a low profile......

But a twist of the brain, Alan? Spalding crossed Erlang's legs and asked seemingly "casually": "Mr. Bai, what do you think of the situation that British readers don't like "Han Bo and the Spirit Stone", but love "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" very much?" Did you feel very lost at one point? ”

After more than half an hour of "set almost", Alan? Spalding felt he could dig a little deeper.

"Lost? Why be lost? ”

Allan? Spalding didn't think it would be too easy, but what he didn't expect was that the old white asked almost without thinking: "What kind of work you like is the right of every reader, if your book doesn't sell well, of course, it's your own reason, just see if you can find this reason." Luckily I tried again, and it seems to have been successful so far? ”

"Haha, of course it's a success, more than 100,000 copies have been sold in the last week in the UK alone, right?"

After listening to Sun Peng's question-like rhetorical question, Allen? Spalding laughed.

While smiling, he also sighed in his heart.

Although Sun Peng's remarks at the airport and at the premiere of "League of Assassins" have caused many reporters and book reviewers to criticize his approach, much more than praise him. But there is no doubt that both critical and praising comments have objectively greatly increased the popularity of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", and even the two Little Wizard series!

You know, the name laobai is quite famous in the UK.

This, coupled with the critical acclaim to which League of Assassins premiered, further stimulated curious readers.

Many people want to see how a book is written in two versions, and the subsequent adaptation has been greatly affirmed by British book critics - whether they approve of Lao Bai's approach or not, but one thing is for sure, aside from the book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone is indeed a very interesting book!

And after buying the little wizard, will you be more curious about the little wizard?

Just like the three little girls in Germany, why don't you just buy a copy and go home and look at it with great interest? In the story, between the lines, look for the mysterious cultural differences between the East and the West.

So in the midst of all the controversy, it's really not surprising that Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone sold 60,000 copies a week in the UK, even if it was enough to make it to the top of the charts and more than double the number two! But the two Little Wizards also sold more than 30,000 copies, which can't help but let Allen? Spalding was amazed – not many of his works were sold in the UK except for European and American writers, let alone a week's worth of sales......

After listening to the host's admiration, Sun Peng smiled and nodded: "Yes, it seems to be selling well, so I am more and more confident in the upcoming "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets". ”

If you want to say that you are most satisfied with the current situation, in addition to Sun Peng himself, it is Seal Press.

Even yesterday, Annie, deputy editor-in-chief of Seal Press, made a special call to Sun Peng, excitedly saying that according to the current trend, the number of first prints of "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" will start at least 3 million!

That's a lot of excitement.

At this time, Alan? Spalding suddenly asked, "What about the movies they are based on?" I mean, according to other media reports, whether it's a little wizard or a little magician, the film adaptation rights of the first part seem to have been sold, right? The only difference is that the adaptation rights of Little Wizard were sold to Huaxia's company, while Little Wizard was sold to Hollywood's Hymens Pictures, and it was also specifically proposed that they use British directors and actors to shoot the original wizarding world...... So what do you think about their future prospects? Which one is more optimistic? ”

“…… So, are you worried? ”

Listened to Alan? Spalding's series of words, Sun Peng's eyebrows raised, and he made an interested look.

"Worried? I don't quite understand what you mean. ”

Just in Alan? Spalding was slightly stunned, and when he was a little puzzled, Sun Peng suddenly leaned his back back, blinked his eyes and smiled: "Really?" But from the tone and expression of your voice, why do I feel a hint of worry? So I made a bold guess just now, and I thought you were worried that the box office of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" would not be as high as that of "Han Bo and the Spirit Stone......"
