"Your two bookshelves can hold hundreds of books, wait until they are full." Chen Jiaxuan refused directly. The decoration of the villa here has basically been completed, and harmful gases are being removed. It is estimated that you can move in in October.
Chen Jiaxuan shook his head, "I'm not sure about this, but the effect should be pretty good anyway."
"I remember seeing photos of the Portuguese version of the physical book a few days ago. As for the physical book, it should have been sent to our studio from there."
"Hyperion" is still being serialized, "Resident Evil" has been published in both Chinese and English, "Inception" is still lingering, and this Lin Han fever is still raging around the world!
Lin Han took a deep breath, and he became a little worried, "Do you think it's too small for me to use a room as a study room in the villa? It can't hold just my own books. How about making another empty room as a library? !”
He has collected every book he has published, even the foreign language version in which he cannot understand the language, as a souvenir. Lin Han has written six or seven long books in the past two years, and almost every one of them has been translated into There are more than ten and twenty different languages, which means that a book like "The Three-Body Problem" will have more than ten versions in the collection!
"You can feel free to make fun of me. If I become a big star, you may also be a public figure. Reporters will bother you every day." Lin Han counterattacked. He rubbed his temples and asked: "That German just now The newspaper said that my novel won the best-selling title, which novel was it?"
Lin Han couldn't help but sigh. Because he lives in Beijing, his wish to face the sea in spring will probably be difficult to realize unless he buys an apartment in Hainan Island to spend the winter!
Chen Jiaxuan is very familiar with Lin Han's novels. She couldn't help but talk about it: "It has only been 25 days since the German version of "Inception" was published, and the publisher has already decided to publish the fifth edition." Print. I remember it was No. 1 in the paperback fiction category in its first week."
Lin Han shook his head in confusion. He really didn't have time to pay attention to these issues, but it is definitely a good thing to win the championship. He smiled and said: "I hope it can stay on the championship throne for a while. Isn't this a little bit... greedy?"
After answering a few questions, Lin Han came to the customs security inspection office, which made the reporters quite regretful. There were still many questions they wanted, but they could only be disappointed.
Even though "The Three-Body Problem" has been famous for a long time, the strong recommendation from the first black president of the United States still has a strong effect.
Before Lin Han walked out, more and more reporters came after hearing the news. This made Lin Han and Lin Han the focus of the airport, and passers-by also looked up to see what was going on here.
"It is reported that many film production companies were interested in your novel on the opening day. Can you briefly disclose the sales situation of the film copyright?"
"There is no result yet, we are just in contact. If we reach an agreement, we will inform everyone." Lin Han answered reporters' questions while walking. Those companies are indeed interested, but Chen Jiaxuan is not ready to agree rashly. After all, there is a With the entire company as your backing, you no longer need to go it alone!
In fact, the two of them knew almost nothing about the different foreign language versions. The sales figures had become just a number, and they were no longer as excited as they were at the beginning.
As nothing happened at the moment, Chen Jiaxuan slowly told the details of the foreign language version of Lin Han's novel, "Because Obama particularly likes your novel "The Three-Body Problem", and he also agreed to write a review for "The Three-Body Problem", so in In the next reprint of the English version, you will see Obama’s recommendation on the back cover, he is a master at promoting books!”
In fact, there are very few Chinese novels on the German Der Spiegel bestseller list. It can even be said that only Lin Han's science fiction novels can be included in the list. No Chinese novel has accomplished this feat before, not even Mo Yan, the Nobel Prize winner. Not even literature prize winners!
"Which versions of my novels have been published now? I'm a little confused myself." Lin Han was busy writing. There were too many foreign language versions, and the translations couldn't be understood anyway, so he simply left the rights to the publisher. Let them find someone to do it.
The more books there are, the higher the monthly cumulative sales, and the more Lin Han's royalties will be. So now he can earn millions or tens of millions of RMB every month even if he does not write new books. This is what top writers earn Advantage!
In the long run, his bookshelf may not be enough. After all, he still has to store other people's books that he bought. It is impossible not to read other people's books all the time.
At present, his achievements in the field of novels are several steps ahead of those in the field of movies, and they are not even in the same weight class!
A reporter from Der Spiegel from Germany was the first to ask: "Mr. Lin, what do you think about your novel being the number one on our weekly bestseller list?"
…
This is not the first time that Lin Han’s science fiction novels have reached the top of the German book market. Not to mention the previous “Jurassic Park” and “Three Body” series, even “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” and “Flowers for Algernon” They have all been achieved, but the length of time they occupied the first place is different.
Lin Han suddenly realized that it was always a little slow to publish foreign language versions of his novels. First, the Chinese version, then the English version, and finally the German, French, Italian, Spanish and other versions. It could not be done overnight.
"It must be "Inception", otherwise which book do you think it is? The English version of "Resident Evil" has just been released, and the German version is probably still being translated."
Sitting in the terminal, Chen Jiaxuan breathed a sigh of relief. She smiled and said, "Dating with a public figure is troublesome, but it's okay. People all over the world are helping me supervise you."
"The publisher is also very powerful. He actually asked Obama to come forward. Has he done this kind of thing before?" Lin Han sighed. There are indeed many benefits to being able to attract the president of a country as a fan. Just one interview can make him famous in the world's news. reported in the media.
"The Three-Body Problem" has dominated the list for nearly five weeks, "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" has only had one week, and "Inception" in front of us has also had three weeks. It is still ranked first with a large advantage and is expected to break Lin Han's own The longest personal record!
Writing one popular book can last a lifetime, let alone someone like Lin Han who writes several popular books a year. The money he earns is probably more than he can spend in a few lifetimes!
