"Li Qingxin's novel is released, "Three-Body", which tells the story of the information exchange, life-and-death struggle between human civilization on earth and the Three-Body civilization, as well as the rise and fall of the two civilizations in the universe!"
"In the universe, four light-years away, there are three star systems with stars orbiting irregularly!"
"New civilization system, new world, "Three-Body" tells you the process of alien invasion!"
"Is there an unknown Trisolaran civilization hidden around us?"
"Li Qing's latest novel "The Three-Body Problem" was released first. When will "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" be released?"
"Science fiction writer Xu Deshui was interviewed about the novel "Three-Body": Li Qing has an extremely grand imagination space that a science fiction writer should have. What is even more rare and valuable is his proficiency in physics, astronomy and other fields of knowledge. There is no
With these knowledge reserves, "Three-Body" cannot be formed!"
"Contemporary Literary World published and sold more than 200,000 copies yesterday, ranking second among literary publications in terms of sales. The Three-Body Problem was released and received rave reviews from readers!"
In the eyes of many people, "The Three-Body Problem" is not as good as imagined, and it did not attract people's attention at first. However, once the author of "The Three-Body Problem" was exposed, it was spread by ten people and hundreds of people in a short time.
But it made countless people flock to it.
The original sales volume of "Contemporary Literary World" was about 100,000 copies per day, but the sales volume doubled instantly, which made the editor-in-chief of "Contemporary Literary World" Guo Rui and others sigh. This is the celebrity effect of Chi Guoguo!
"Contemporary Literary World" is a bimonthly publication with a full fifteen-day sales period, and the sales volume on the first day alone was 200,000.
This figure can be said to be the best sales data since the founding of "Contemporary Literary World"
You know, "New Red Science", known as one of the three major literary journals in China, could produce about 100,000 copies a day during the initial release period.
But as time goes on, this sales figure gradually decreases.
Like "Contemporary Literary World", "New Red Learning" has sold about 500,000 copies in one issue.
However, "Grudge", which firmly ranks first among the three major literary magazines in terms of sales, has sold more than 700,000 copies of one issue.
This kind of performance can only be matched by state-run periodicals such as "Reader" and "Youth Digest".
Of course, these state-run journals are backed by the government. Although their sales figures are astonishing, most of them are mandated by government institutions.
This is like a martial arts writer's novels, which are basically incomparable with the sales volume of primary school education books.
As for "Contemporary Literary Circle", which is usually impossible to compare with the sales volume of "Grudge", due to the addition of Li Qing's new work "The Three-Body Problem", the sales volume in a single day has more than doubled, reaching 200,000 copies!
This is almost on par with "Sprouting"!
It even shocked all the staff of "Sprout" magazine!
"Perhaps it was because everyone had a fresh idea and knew it was Li Qing's work, so the fans cheered it up. This is the explosive period for this day."
In the office hall of "Grudge" magazine, editor-in-chief Zhao Hong said to others with a smile after seeing the single-day sales data of literary journals.
His smile was a little forced, but his words still caused others to nod in agreement.
"After all, it is Li Qing's work. With such a strong reputation, it is reasonable to have such achievements. However, there are specialties in the art. Although "The Three-Body Problem" is good to read, to be honest, it is not very readable.
Aliens invading the earth... Haha, this kind of theme might still be able to sell well in the United States, but in China, similar themes have never become popular. I guess Li Qing has watched too many American Hollywood movies.
Too much!"
"Having said that, Li Qing can also be regarded as a great literary figure in Hong Kong. His "Looking for Qin" has become popular throughout Southeast Asia. He is quite experienced in literary creation. What I find strange is that he writes science fiction novels.
But he actually chose to serialize his new work in "Contemporary Literary Circle". If we talk about serialization, isn't our "Grudge" a better choice?"
"I heard that Guo Rui visited the thatched cottage three times and squatted in front of Li Qing's company almost every day just to invite Li Qing for manuscripts..."
"Guo Rui? Are you kidding me? How can a rich second generation like him have such perseverance?"
Zhao Hong saw his colleagues arguing over the appearance of the novel "The Three-Body Problem" and felt a little disgusted.
Guo Rui is able to build a campus magazine into such a huge scale, so he is naturally superior. Simply imagine him as a rich second generation with nothing to do, and you would only think so if your brain is flooded.
And looking at the sales trend of "Contemporary Literary World" and the popularity of the "Three-Body" novel, maybe in the next few days, the sales volume of "Contemporary Literary World" will surpass that of "Sprouting" magazine.
Zhao Hong's prediction came true very accurately.
In the next few days, the sales volume of "Contemporary Literary World" increased instead of decreasing. The single-day sales volume stabilized at 200,000 copies, and the highest exceeded 300,000 copies. After one week in a row, the sales volume of "Contemporary Literary World" exceeded 100,000 copies.
Half a million copies!
This data shocked everyone in the industry.
Because even the largest digest magazine in China - "Reader", its half-month sales are only like this.
And "Contemporary Literary World" reached this number in just one week!
You know, the circulation of "Reader" can be said to be firmly ranked first among Chinese journals and first among Asian journals!
Even in the ranking of comprehensive journals in the world, it ranks fourth and is known as the first brand of Chinese journals!
Today, the sales growth trend of "Contemporary Literary World" has actually caught up with "Reader"!
If this continues, "Contemporary Literary Circle" will undoubtedly become the best-selling literary journal in China!
Of course, this is just a short-term burst of sales.
In terms of overall influence and total circulation since its inception, ten "Contemporary Literary Circles" cannot compare to one "Reader".
But even so, the influence of "Contemporary Literary World" has begun to increase due to the addition of Li Qing's work "The Three-Body Problem"!
This phenomenon has led many magazines and periodicals across the country to invite people from the entertainment industry to write articles, and the prices are quite high. Some artists with literary talent have been invited by the literary circle, and they suddenly feel that they are prestigious.
Everyone, regardless of their skill level, rolled up their sleeves and started writing articles for major magazines.
Some second- and third-tier celebrities who are anxious to make a name for themselves even buy out articles from gunmen at high prices and publish them instead.
For a time, there was a writing storm in the literary and entertainment circles, and the two sides began a series of close cooperation.
Not to mention, after such a series of actions, the circulation of major literary journals and newspapers has actually increased more or less.
At the same time, on the other side of the world, in an apartment near Harvard University in the United States.
Dong dong dong——
There was a knock on the door.
Liu Yukun, who had just graduated from the Department of English and American Literature at Harvard University, heard the sound, yawned, scratched his scalp and walked out of the bed, pulled on his slippers, and opened the door sleepily.
There was no one outside the door, but there was an extra package in the mailbox hanging at the door.
"China International Express Mail - EMS" is written solemnly on the package!
A package from China?
Liu Yukun suddenly became energetic and lost all sleep. He took out the package with great interest, then turned around and closed the door with a bang.
