In the next few days, Li Jianhui was busy with the establishment of the game company. If it hadn't been for the call from the administrative manager of the publishing house, he would have forgotten to attend the book signing on the 1st.
With good connections, Li Jianhui not only obtained a loan of HK$5 million from Dao Heng Bank in the last few days of July, but also rented the company's office space.
As for company registration, it is even simpler here in Xiangjiang. It only took Li Jianhui one day for Huihong Game Company to be officially registered.
It's a pity that the company is just an empty shell at present. Apart from himself, there is no one in the company, and the office area is empty. He still needs to arrange decoration and purchase office supplies.
Xiangjiang is very lively these days, especially in the novel world, where you can sing and I will appear.
Not to mention the mutual attacks between Li Jianhui and Ni Jiang in the newspapers, martial arts masters Gu Long and Liang Yusheng also stood up, seeming to tell Li Jianhui that the younger generation must have the consciousness of the younger generation. The world of martial arts novels is still dominated by Jin Guliang.
On the day of Li Jianhui's "Kunlun" signing, Gu Long's "Blue Blood and Silver Gun" will also be on sale in Hong Kong, and Gu Long will personally attend the signing in Hong Kong.
Liang Yusheng is not behind either. "Jian Wang Chen Si" serialized in Ta Kung Pao will also be published on this day, and a book signing will also be held.
One is a young hero who has just debuted and wants to become a god by stepping on the four great talents, and the two are big bosses who have already become gods.
The three held a book signing event in Hong Kong on the same day. Who will reach the top in the end has triggered heated discussions among countless media and citizens.
It also allowed Li Jianhui's fame to spread from Xiangjiang to Baodao, and even some martial arts novel fans in Southeast Asia knew his name and Kunlun.
August 1st was a relatively ordinary day for Xiangjiang, but because of the public opinion these days, reporters from major newspapers and TV stations in Xiangjiang started busy early. Some large newspapers and the three major TV stations even sent many reporters.
an interview team.
A large number of martial arts book fans gathered in Central, Causeway Bay, Mong Kok and Xiangjiang, hoping to meet their idols face to face and get a signed novel.
Not to mention the grand events in Central and Causeway Bay, the book signing at Sanlian Bookstore in Mong Kok only started at 9 a.m., and before 8 a.m., more than 500 Kunlun book fans gathered outside the bookstore.
At the same time, TVB, LiDe, Jiayi, Oriental Daily, Sing Tao Daily, Ming Pao, etc. have also conducted interviews again.
As time passed, more and more book fans were outside the bookstore. For the safety of the public, the Kowloon Police Department rarely arranged for security police to be on duty outside the Sanlian Bookstore.
Li Jianhui, who had just gotten out of the car, heard bursts of enthusiastic shouts. Even though he had traveled through time and had memories of two lifetimes, he was still excited deep in his heart.
In his previous life, he was just a small person at the bottom. After reading the novels of various Internet masters, he also tried to write a few of them, but unfortunately almost no one paid attention to them.
Now, although he plagiarized later classics, no one here can say that he plagiarized. This book "Kunlun" is his work.
Whether it's because of the media's praise or Oriental Daily and the publishing house's hype, at least at this moment, he is qualified to be compared with the four great talents and big names such as Gu Long and Liang Yusheng.
…
Facing his book friends and reporters from many media, Li Jianhui said with excitement: "Thank you very much to all my book friends and journalist friends for coming to this book signing..."
This speech was specially prepared for him by Oriental Daily yesterday, in order to ensure that there would not be any big mistakes during today's signing.
It's a pity that the plan can't keep up with the changes. The major media have been waiting here for a long time, not for this cookie-cutter autograph session.
As soon as Li Jianhui finished speaking, a reporter from Sing Tao Daily said immediately: "Li Sheng, at this moment, book signings are also being held in Central and Causeway Bay, and they are all martial arts works like yours. I wonder how you feel about this.
What do you think?"
"Whether it is Gu Long or Liang Yusheng, they are both masters in the world of martial arts novels. They have many works that are loved by martial arts fans and have a large number of die-hard fans.
I believe that "Blood Cleansing Silver Gun" and "Jian Wang Chen Si" can achieve good sales results."
This kind of answer is obviously not what the reporters want. A reporter from TVB said: "Li Sheng, what do you think of the three books on sale today? Can the book Kunlun beat the other two?"
The reporters present fell silent, waiting for Li Jianhui's answer. They believed that no matter what the response was, it would be popular material.
Li Jianhui naturally knew the thoughts of the reporters present, and he was willing to let them get their wish.
It is impossible to say that Gu Long and Liang Yusheng have no inner opinions when they hold a book signing today.
It must be known that Kunlun's novel will be published and put on sale on August 1st and a book signing will be held on August 1st. Later, these two people also chose this day. Their intention is self-evident, and they just wanted to slap him in the face.
Since the other party does not give him face, Li Jianhui naturally does not need to show respect to the other party.
"I respect the two masters very much, and I wish their novels to be successful. I am very confident about Kunlun. I believe that this year's Hong Kong martial arts novels will be the era of "Kunlun"."
At this time, Li Jianhui acted like a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers, and even a little young and frivolous. However, the reporters present did not care about this. What they wanted to see most was Li Jianhui's attitude.
If there were no arguments and conflicts, how could their newspapers and news be read, how could they be popular, and how could they become the talk of the town before and after dinner?
Only after you are truly famous can you experience the pain of becoming famous, especially signing. The excitement at the beginning slowly turns to calmness, and finally numbness after signing.
By the end, Li Jianhui felt that his right hand was stiff.
Fortunately, today's results are quite gratifying. In just one morning, this bookstore alone sold 1,625 copies.
Based on the price of 15 Hong Kong dollars per copy, Li Jianhui received 10% royalties and received 1.5 Hong Kong dollars for each copy sold. From this store alone, he earned more than 2,400 Hong Kong dollars in one morning.
This is only the first volume. Kunlun has five volumes in total. For many people, this is undoubtedly a big gold mine.
Li Jianhui knew very well that this was mainly due to Chen Zhiyong's favor. If it weren't for this relationship, how could Oriental Daily give him such a high treatment?
Capital has always been bloodthirsty. If it weren't for Chen Zhiyong, as a newcomer, he would have earned tens of thousands of yuan from this book, but there would be no such copyright benefits at all.
After bidding farewell to the bookstore manager and the deputy general manager of the publishing house, Li Jianhui, accompanied by Chen Xinyi, got into the Chen family's car and left this noisy place.
Xiangjiang media reporters have also returned to newspapers and TV stations. Today there is too much news worthy of their special mention.
The battle between the new and the famous, whether the late wave pushes the front wave or the old one is the hotter, this is the focus of public attention.
The sales volume at this morning’s autograph signing will determine the victory of the three parties in the first stage.
