A big reason why Lin Han is willing to be interviewed is that he does not have to face so many media reporters directly and only needs to concentrate on dealing with one. Moreover, conscientious media like People magazine will not take some sentences in his words that are easily ambiguous out of context. List them separately.
The ingenious chef makes vegetarian dishes look exactly like meat dishes. The signature dish "Tian Xia Yu" is clearly a tempting boiled fish, but it is made with beans, and the taste is even higher than that of real fish.
After finishing all this, Jamie finally said: "On behalf of readers across the United States, I would like to ask you a simple question, when will "Hyperion" be released in English? We all already know that this book conquers I have read Chinese readers, but I don’t know if it suits the taste of our American readers.”
Chen Jiaxuan is not an unreasonable person, "There are no good TV series to watch now, but tomorrow I will invite my best friends to play board games together. You have books to read, but it's a pity that I can't find any good novels."
After finishing all this, Jamie finally said: "On behalf of readers across the United States, I would like to ask you a simple question, when will "Hyperion" be released in English? We all already know that this book conquers I have read Chinese readers, but I don’t know if it suits the taste of our American readers.”
Now in the entire book market, the pre-sale record is held by Lin Han himself. The only one who can break the record is himself. Now he has reached an invincible state.
It is necessary to study and accumulate properly, and only by accumulation can you make progress. Lin Han is already a little tired of science fiction novels, so he needs to change his genre to refresh his mind!
"You won't know until you write the novel whether it's good or not. Don't underestimate me now. Anyone who underestimated me before will eventually be slapped in the face by himself." Lin Han said with a smile, reading more books is beneficial!
At Lin Han's level, if he says the wrong thing, it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble. He is not willing to increase the workload on his employees, so this method is more suitable for him.
"Let me go, the sales figures have revealed the truth, so you know it's fake. You're bragging and you don't draft it. Now it's a joke!"
The cover photo shoot is very simple. You only need to shoot his face, and the background behind him will be blurred out. The focus is on the person's mental outlook and eyes. This is something Lin Han is quite good at!
"On the first day, based on the official website of Renmin University Press and the official flagship store on the shopping website, as well as the pre-sale of Xinhua Bookstore and other bookstores, the number of pre-orders of "Hyperion" on the first day is already 210,000!"
Chen Jiaxuan thought it was just a joke at first, but she didn't expect Lin Han to take it seriously. Her curiosity was constantly raised: "What? Tell me what type it is. Don't let the heroine fall in love with a zombie. Could it be?" An interstellar romance?”

A week later, "Hyperion" was officially released, but the numbers announced by Renmin University Press made countless people blind!
Chen Jiaxuan couldn't help but shudder when she thought of writing a science fiction romance novel in such a masculine style, it was so weird!
After finishing all this, Jamie finally said: "On behalf of readers across the United States, I would like to ask you a simple question, when will "Hyperion" be released in English?

"You do this kind of thing just for the sake of so-called records, and you will definitely turn the passers-by into evil!"
Lin Han patted her hand and said jokingly: "Sit in a bookstore and I'll buy some books so that we can fill up the bookshelves in our house."
"Believe me, this will definitely satisfy you. And you won't have to wait too long. You will definitely be able to see it in October!" Lin Han said confidently. In fact, the English version of "Hyperion" is already in preparation He had already taken action under the urging of Alex, the editor of Penguin Publishing Group.
Sure enough, it was invincible from the beginning. This strange trend has never appeared in the history of book sales, so there are many people who doubt this number!
Sure enough, it was invincible from the beginning. This strange trend has never appeared in the history of book sales, so there are many people who doubt this number!
The two of them shook hands, marking the end of the interview with People magazine!
Since it was just a casual chat, Lin Han didn't pay too much attention. He asked: "What kind of novels do you want to read? How many can I recommend to you?"
…
"Don't eat. Be vegetarian. Let's go to Bodhi Vegetarian Restaurant. I heard it's pretty good there." Chen Jiaxuan was not such a fragile person originally, but she was willing to put away those disguises in front of Lin Han. Who is not a little princess anymore!
Writers who know English have this advantage. They can translate their own works without worrying about losing something after being translated by other writers.
If he hadn't been indifferent to the other books, Lin Han would have wanted to buy more, but he decided to read these books first. Then he would buy them through the online bookstore and have them delivered to his door, which would be great.
The two bookshelves in the study room of the villa are a bit empty, and most of them have no books placed on them. Many of them are books that Lin Han bought before for reference when writing novels, and they are quite professional!
Lin Han laughed softly: "How about watching movies or TV series with you? If not, I will read the books I bought."
Chen Jiaxuan patted her forehead. In such a classic movie, the psychologist and the murderer Hannibal are always active on the screen. "I have recalled that movie scene now. You can find some normal novels to read." "
Life is like this, you have to enjoy it. Now that money is much more relaxed, don’t wrong yourself!
"Then I will write this time into the interview. If it is not released by then, your readers will riot collectively. I am looking forward to reading that book. Beijing is a beautiful place. I hope to see more of your excellence in the future. s work!"
"This book should be very good. The recommendation is so well written." Lin Han picked up a book. "When the lamb is quiet, do you hear the cry and whisper in the darkest place of the soul?"
Lin Han shrugged his shoulders, "Of course. Maybe I will start a bilingual serialization of the next book in Chinese and English. Everything is possible. But this doesn't need to be included in the interview. You just need to know."
Yan Hong knew that his boss was generous, and he replied excitedly: "Thank you, boss! By the way, boss, I have just received feedback from Renmin University Publishing House on the results of the first day of pre-sale for "Hyperion" , seems to be directly invincible from the beginning!”
Lin Han shrugged his shoulders, "Of course. Maybe I will start a bilingual serialization of the next book in Chinese and English. Everything is possible. But this doesn't need to be included in the interview. You just need to know."
…
"On the first day, based on the official website of Renmin University Press and the official flagship store on the shopping website, as well as the pre-sale of Xinhua Bookstore and other bookstores, the number of pre-orders of "Hyperion" on the first day is already 210,000!"
The two of them shook hands, marking the end of the interview with People magazine!
Another very famous dish is called "Fu Bao". On top of the specially prepared soup, there is a tinfoil lotus leaf plate floating with smooth vegetarian abalone slices. These soups stewed with a variety of wild mushrooms looked cool and transparent, and tasted even more delicious, which made Lin Han unable to help but whet his appetite.
The quiet time is always short. After reading more than 20 pages of Lin Han's novel, a phone call came. This was his assistant Yan Hong reporting on work!
"Then shall we have steak tonight?"
Faced with the doubts of netizens and the uneasiness of readers, Renmin University Publishing House once again posted on Weibo: "When we saw this number, we also expressed strong doubts and even took the initiative to conduct an investigation. We were not the ones who announced the pre-sale numbers. , but to go to the State Administration of Press and Publication, who said that all the data is true and there is no falsehood, so "Hyperion" is the new pre-sale king!"
The two of them shook hands, marking the end of the interview with People magazine!
At Lin Han's level, if he says the wrong thing, it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble. He is not willing to increase the workload on his employees, so this method is more suitable for him.
Perhaps because he was used to hearing about "The Martian" buying hundreds of thousands of copies every day around the world in the past few days, Lin Han was not very surprised by the 210,000 pre-sales of "Hyperion", "Oh, that's it. I thought there were many."
For people who love books, they can never get enough of good books, especially after being reborn once, they will understand the value of knowledge even more! If Lin Han had never been so fond of science fiction novels in his previous life, then he would hardly be able to find many ways to change his predicament after his rebirth!
…
In the following time, Lin Han held in his hand books such as "Perfume", "Desolate Village Apartment", "Murder on the Orient Express", "Alice's Mirror City Murders", and "Crime in the Leaning House".
"Teacher Lin, the list of 800 lucky readers drawn today has come out. We will send it out by express tomorrow. After being screened by the lottery platform, there are actually 520,000 people who are eligible for the lottery. Drawing a prize will blow up my computer. It’s a slap on the wrist.”
"You won't know until you write the novel whether it's good or not. Don't underestimate me now. Anyone who underestimated me before will eventually be slapped in the face by himself." Lin Han said with a smile, reading more books is beneficial!
After coming out of the hotel, Lin Han was not in a hurry to go home. It was still early, so he took Chen Jiaxuan and wandered on the street.
Lin Han patted her hand and said jokingly: "Sit in a bookstore and I'll buy some books so that we can fill up the bookshelves in our house."
Lin Han grinned, showing his neat white teeth, "Don't worry, I won't eat you."
"Bookstores are becoming more and more artistic now, and there are so many people coming in to take pictures." Chen Jiaxuan whispered in Lin Han's ear. She did not dare to speak loudly for fear of disturbing those who were concentrating on reading.
"Where are we going?" Chen Jiaxuan walked beside Lin Han in high heels. She held her boyfriend's arm and walked on this unfamiliar street.
Now in the entire book market, the pre-sale record is held by Lin Han himself. The only one who can break the record is himself. Now he has reached an invincible state.
Beijing in September is no longer as hot as summer, and the autumn wind feels particularly cool on you!
It was originally a long journey, but just talking and laughing, we actually walked back directly. As a result, Chen Jiaxuan's heels were worn out!
Taken together, 210,000 on the first day turned out to be the lowest pre-sales day, which is an unacceptable result for any book. 250,000 on the next day and more than 200,000 in the following days were maintained.
Yan Hong knew that his boss was generous, and he replied excitedly: "Thank you, boss! By the way, boss, I have just received feedback from Renmin University Publishing House on the results of the first day of pre-sale for "Hyperion" , seems to be directly invincible from the beginning!”
"Where are we going?" Chen Jiaxuan walked beside Lin Han in high heels. She held her boyfriend's arm and walked on this unfamiliar street.
"And I"
"What kind of sales king? He is obviously the water injection king!"
"Where are we going?" Chen Jiaxuan walked beside Lin Han in high heels. She held her boyfriend's arm and walked on this unfamiliar street.
"I contributed two of the 1.58 million copies!"
Beijing in September is no longer as hot as summer, and the autumn wind feels particularly cool on you!
Chen Jiaxuan was not surprised. Instead, she looked at Lin Han with doubts: "Dear, do you know that what you are worst at is writing female characters and emotional scenes between male and female protagonists?"
"We can make a horizontal comparison of "Inception". It pre-sold more than 500,000 copies in the first week, and maintained the same level in the second week, and finally reached 1.18 million pre-sales. Now the pre-sales of "Hyperion" The issue is only one week, but the sales volume is much ahead, so the final pre-sale result given by Renmin University Publishing House is 900,000-1 million copies."
Although there has been an obvious decline in the recent book market, sales in the tens of millions can clearly distinguish him from other authors.
Writers who know English have this advantage. They can translate their own works without worrying about losing something after being translated by other writers.
The ingenious chef makes vegetarian dishes look exactly like meat dishes. The signature dish "Tian Xia Yu" is clearly a tempting boiled fish, but it is made with beans, and the taste is even higher than that of real fish.
Almost all of his science fiction novels have millions of copies in Chinese version and millions in English version, which together can reach tens of millions, but none of them can reach tens of millions in a single market field. .
Lin Han patted her hand and said jokingly: "Sit in a bookstore and I'll buy some books so that we can fill up the bookshelves in our house."
It can be said that Lin Han returned with a full load. Although he wanted to eat some meat, because he mentioned Hannibal before, he had to accompany Chen Jiaxuan to go to Bodhi Su to eat vegetarian food.
In the following time, Lin Han held in his hand books such as "Perfume", "Desolate Village Apartment", "Murder on the Orient Express", "Alice's Mirror City Murders", and "Crime in the Leaning House".
"You want to buy mystery and suspense novels?" Chen Jiaxuan couldn't help but shudder. She actually preferred novels with a literary nature, such as "Gone with the Wind" and "Wuthering Heights".
For people who love books, they can never get enough of good books, especially after being reborn once, they will understand the value of knowledge even more! If Lin Han had never been so fond of science fiction novels in his previous life, then he would hardly be able to find many ways to change his predicament after his rebirth!
Taken together, 210,000 on the first day turned out to be the lowest pre-sales day, which is an unacceptable result for any book. 250,000 on the next day and more than 200,000 in the following days were maintained.
It tastes delicious and tender. This tofu fish has a black skin on the outside, just like fish skin. It tastes chewy and tough!
I originally thought that the pre-sale estimate of 900,000 copies was very optimistic, but the publisher actually gave me 1.58 million copies, which directly increased the original score of "Inception" by 400,000 copies!
Faced with the doubts of netizens and the uneasiness of readers, Renmin University Publishing House once again posted on Weibo: "When we saw this number, we also expressed strong doubts and even took the initiative to conduct an investigation. We were not the ones who announced the pre-sale numbers. , but to go to the State Administration of Press and Publication, who said that all the data is true and there is no falsehood, so "Hyperion" is the new pre-sale king!"
The two bookshelves in the study room of the villa are a bit empty, and most of them have no books placed on them. Many of them are books that Lin Han bought before for reference when writing novels, and they are quite professional!
"Okay, I know. One million is also very good! If you have any news later, please send it to me via WeChat."
Chen Jiaxuan is not an unreasonable person, "There are no good TV series to watch now, but tomorrow I will invite my best friends to play board games together. You have books to read, but it's a pity that I can't find any good novels."
It was originally a long journey, but just talking and laughing, we actually walked back directly. As a result, Chen Jiaxuan's heels were worn out!
Since it was just a casual chat, Lin Han didn't pay too much attention. He asked: "What kind of novels do you want to read? How many can I recommend to you?"
…
Science fiction novels must also keep pace with the times and cannot be based on random imagination, but now Lin Han decided to give his brain a holiday and buy some books by other writers.
It is necessary to study and accumulate properly, and only by accumulation can you make progress. Lin Han is already a little tired of science fiction novels, so he needs to change his genre to refresh his mind!
Chen Jiaxuan was so frightened that she immediately reacted and grabbed Lin Han's waist with her hands, "You actually scared me, I almost believed it!"
Almost all of his science fiction novels have millions of copies in Chinese version and millions in English version, which together can reach tens of millions, but none of them can reach tens of millions in a single market field. .
Lin Han is actually immune to sales. Each book sells millions and millions. What he wants to do now is to break through this bottleneck!
Lin Han shrugged his shoulders, "Of course. Maybe I will start a bilingual serialization of the next book in Chinese and English. Everything is possible. But this doesn't need to be included in the interview. You just need to know."

…
This vegetarian restaurant is very popular. It is located in an ancient courtyard with three entrances. There is a 400-year-old locust tree in the courtyard, which is covered with marriage cards. The environment looks very good!
Life is like this, you have to enjoy it. Now that money is much more relaxed, don’t wrong yourself!
The two of them shook hands, marking the end of the interview with People magazine!

"Where are we going?" Chen Jiaxuan walked beside Lin Han in high heels. She held her boyfriend's arm and walked on this unfamiliar street.
The bookstore actually didn't have many things. After walking for more than ten or twenty minutes, the two of them saw the "Fangsuo" decorated like a shopping mall.
"We can make a horizontal comparison of "Inception". It pre-sold more than 500,000 copies in the first week, and maintained the same level in the second week, and finally reached 1.18 million pre-sales.

The thick stack of books made the cashier want to call the police. Is it really okay to buy so many books of this type in one go
Chen Jiaxuan thought it was just a joke at first, but she didn't expect Lin Han to take it seriously. Her curiosity was constantly raised: "What? Tell me what type it is. Don't let the heroine fall in love with a zombie. Could it be?" An interstellar romance?”

This bookstore is very tastefully built, not as formal as Xinhua Bookstore. Although it has only one floor, it is very large, with countless stacked bookshelves. There is even a wooden staircase that looks like an ancient library. atmosphere.
Since it was just a casual chat, Lin Han didn't pay too much attention. He asked: "What kind of novels do you want to read? How many can I recommend to you?"
"Believe me, this will definitely satisfy you. And you won't have to wait too long. You will definitely be able to see it in October!" Lin Han said confidently.

"Bookstores are becoming more and more artistic now, and there are so many people coming in to take pictures." Chen Jiaxuan whispered in Lin Han's ear. She did not dare to speak loudly for fear of disturbing those who were concentrating on reading.
"I want to read the classic love novels, and I also want to understand the science fiction novels you wrote. Of the many novels you wrote, I can't really understand many of them. Even "Hyperion" can only stay On the basis of shock and emotion.”

"Seriously, the craftsmanship of this vegetarian restaurant you chose is really good. The vegetarian abalone slices taste very much like meat. They are very delicate."
Beijing in September is no longer as hot as summer, and the autumn wind feels particularly cool on you!
Lin Han also feels the same way. Such an elegant and comfortable paradise is suitable for holding a novel, ordering a cup of coffee, sitting on a chair and enjoying the whole afternoon!
In Lin Han's science fiction novels, this is the most criticized point. There are often some mistakes in the heroine. Either there is no heroine, or the heroine is a vase, or the heroine destroys the world, serious writing There are very few good female characters.
Writers who know English have this advantage. They can translate their own works without worrying about losing something after being translated by other writers.
Lin Han didn't expect that his Weibo post would have so many participants. He was in a good mood and said to his mobile phone: "Just take it out. It's time to replace your computer with a new one. I'll reimburse you for it." You can buy whatever model you want.”

He raised his head and looked carefully at the book navigation above, then led Chen Jiaxuan towards the covered bridge in front. The book he wanted to buy was in front.
"Don't eat. Be vegetarian. Let's go to Bodhi Vegetarian Restaurant. I heard it's pretty good there." Chen Jiaxuan was not such a fragile person originally, but she was willing to put away those disguises in front of Lin Han. Who is not a little princess anymore!

"You want to buy mystery and suspense novels?" Chen Jiaxuan couldn't help but shudder. She actually preferred novels with a literary nature, such as "Gone with the Wind" and "Wuthering Heights".
"Me too!"
Lin Han didn't know much about this type of novel. He had only read the works of the more famous writers. Now he found that the movie "The Silence of the Lambs" he had watched also had a novel version. This was unexpected. To his surprise, this was not only a suspense novel, but also a classic piece of literature!

The villa area was relatively quiet, with only the occasional barking of dogs. Chen Jiaxuan was chatting with her friends on her mobile phone, playing "Who is the Undercover" online, while Lin Han was carefully reading another book he bought. He was reading a book, and from time to time he looked up and glanced at Chen Jiaxuan who was playing crazy. His movements were very harmonious.

If Lin Han had never been so fond of science fiction novels in his previous life, then he would hardly be able to find many ways to change his predicament after his rebirth!
After the two of them had eaten and drank enough, they took a leisurely walk on the sidewalk, just to eat and drink. After all, Chen Jiaxuan did not allow herself to get too fat.
Life is like this, you have to enjoy it. Now that money is much more relaxed, don’t wrong yourself!
Chen Jiaxuan was so frightened that she immediately reacted and grabbed Lin Han's waist with her hands, "You actually scared me, I almost believed it!"
…
"This book should be very good. The recommendation is so well written." Lin Han picked up a book. "When the lamb is quiet, do you hear the cry and whisper in the darkest place of the soul?"

Now in the entire book market, the pre-sale record is held by Lin Han himself. The only one who can break the record is himself. Now he has reached an invincible state.
The funniest thing is that these two novels that successively set pre-sale records were both updated directly by him through serialization on the Internet. Obviously many people have already read it, but the pre-sales set impossible records!

It can be said that Lin Han returned with a full load. Although he wanted to eat some meat, because he mentioned Hannibal before, he had to accompany Chen Jiaxuan to go to Bodhi Su to eat vegetarian food.
"Let me tell you how much it is."
Chen Jiaxuan couldn't help but shudder when she thought of writing a science fiction romance novel in such a masculine style, it was so weird!

…
Chen Jiaxuan was so frightened that she immediately reacted and grabbed Lin Han's waist with her hands, "You actually scared me, I almost believed it!"
Chen Jiaxuan took a small bowl and took two sips of the hot soup. She said proudly: "Of course, my best friend revealed this to me. If we get tired of eating real meat, it's not bad to come here for vegetarian meals occasionally!"
"Me too!"
"This book should be very good. The recommendation is so well written." Lin Han picked up a book. "When the lamb is quiet, do you hear the cry and whisper in the darkest place of the soul?"
"You do this kind of thing just for the sake of so-called records, and you will definitely turn the passers-by into evil!"
"We can make a horizontal comparison of "Inception". It pre-sold more than 500,000 copies in the first week, and maintained the same level in the second week, and finally reached 1.18 million pre-sales. Now the pre-sales of "Hyperion" The issue is only one week, but the sales volume is much ahead, so the final pre-sale result given by Renmin University Publishing House is 900,000-1 million copies."
"Then shall we have steak tonight?"
Lin Han was questioned by his girlfriend, and he would not give up this opportunity. Although the outside world said that science fiction novels are written for men, Lin Han also has a large number of female readers. He mainly writes to his girlfriend and gives them as gifts. Female reader, he has already made a decision in his heart in these few seconds.
Sure enough, it was invincible from the beginning. This strange trend has never appeared in the history of book sales, so there are many people who doubt this number!
Although there has been an obvious decline in the recent book market, sales in the tens of millions can clearly distinguish him from other authors.
This bookstore is very tastefully built, not as formal as Xinhua Bookstore. Although it has only one floor, it is very large, with countless stacked bookshelves. There is even a wooden staircase that looks like an ancient library. atmosphere.
Now in the entire book market, the pre-sale record is held by Lin Han himself. The only one who can break the record is himself. Now he has reached an invincible state.
"I contributed two of the 1.58 million copies!"
"Don't eat. Be vegetarian. Let's go to Bodhi Vegetarian Restaurant. I heard it's pretty good there." Chen Jiaxuan was not such a fragile person originally, but she was willing to put away those disguises in front of Lin Han. Who is not a little princess anymore!
In the book market, the only writers who can sell more than one million copies of a single science fiction novel are Lin Han and Li Wenyuan, so this pre-sale result is actually quite good.
The villa area was relatively quiet, with only the occasional barking of dogs. Chen Jiaxuan was chatting with her friends on her mobile phone, playing "Who is the Undercover" online, while Lin Han was carefully reading another book he bought. He was reading a book, and from time to time he looked up and glanced at Chen Jiaxuan who was playing crazy. His movements were very harmonious.
In the following time, Lin Han held in his hand books such as "Perfume", "Desolate Village Apartment", "Murder on the Orient Express", "Alice's Mirror City Murders", and "Crime in the Leaning House".
"You do this kind of thing just for the sake of so-called records, and you will definitely turn the passers-by into evil!"
Chen Jiaxuan was not surprised. Instead, she looked at Lin Han with doubts: "Dear, do you know that what you are worst at is writing female characters and emotional scenes between male and female protagonists?"
Lin Han shrugged his shoulders, "Of course. Maybe I will start a bilingual serialization of the next book in Chinese and English. Everything is possible. But this doesn't need to be included in the interview. You just need to know."
Chen Jiaxuan thought it was just a joke at first, but she didn't expect Lin Han to take it seriously. Her curiosity was constantly raised: "What? Tell me what type it is. Don't let the heroine fall in love with a zombie. Could it be?" An interstellar romance?”
Yan Hong knew that his boss was generous, and he replied excitedly: "Thank you, boss! By the way, boss, I have just received feedback from Renmin University Publishing House on the results of the first day of pre-sale for "Hyperion" , seems to be directly invincible from the beginning!”
It was originally a long journey, but just talking and laughing, we actually walked back directly. As a result, Chen Jiaxuan's heels were worn out!
The thick stack of books made the cashier want to call the police. Is it really okay to buy so many books of this type in one go
Taken together, 210,000 on the first day turned out to be the lowest pre-sales day, which is an unacceptable result for any book. 250,000 on the next day and more than 200,000 in the following days were maintained.
Writers who know English have this advantage. They can translate their own works without worrying about losing something after being translated by other writers.
This vegetarian restaurant is very popular. It is located in an ancient courtyard with three entrances. There is a 400-year-old locust tree in the courtyard, which is covered with marriage cards. The environment looks very good!
If he hadn't been indifferent to the other books, Lin Han would have wanted to buy more, but he decided to read these books first. Then he would buy them through the online bookstore and have them delivered to his door, which would be great.
Now in the entire book market, the pre-sale record is held by Lin Han himself. The only one who can break the record is himself. Now he has reached an invincible state.
The bookstore actually didn't have many things. After walking for more than ten or twenty minutes, the two of them saw the "Fangsuo" decorated like a shopping mall.
…

Beijing in September is no longer as hot as summer, and the autumn wind feels particularly cool on you!
A big reason why Lin Han is willing to be interviewed is that he does not have to face so many media reporters directly and only needs to concentrate on dealing with one. Moreover, conscientious media like People magazine will not take some sentences in his words that are easily ambiguous out of context. List them separately.
A big reason why Lin Han is willing to be interviewed is that he does not have to face so many media reporters directly and only needs to concentrate on dealing with one. Moreover, conscientious media like People magazine will not take some sentences in his words that are easily ambiguous out of context. List them separately.
Perhaps because he was used to hearing about "The Martian" buying hundreds of thousands of copies every day around the world in the past few days, Lin Han was not very surprised by the 210,000 pre-sales of "Hyperion", "Oh, that's it. I thought there were many."
It can be said that Lin Han returned with a full load. Although he wanted to eat some meat, because he mentioned Hannibal before, he had to accompany Chen Jiaxuan to go to Bodhi Su to eat vegetarian food.
"How will you pass the time when you get home at night?"
"I contributed a volume!"
…
The two bookshelves in the study room of the villa are a bit empty, and most of them have no books placed on them. Many of them are books that Lin Han bought before for reference when writing novels, and they are quite professional!

Chen Jiaxuan patted her forehead. In such a classic movie, the psychologist and the murderer Hannibal are always active on the screen. "I have recalled that movie scene now. You can find some normal novels to read." "
"Wow, congratulations to Teacher Lin. I ordered this book the day before yesterday, and I happened to have a coupon for 20% off. How lonely it is to be invincible, a man standing at the top!"
"Wow, congratulations to Teacher Lin. I ordered this book the day before yesterday, and I happened to have a coupon for 20% off. How lonely it is to be invincible, a man standing at the top!"
When the lanterns came on, Lin Han stopped in his tracks and said, "If you like it, I will write you a science fiction love novel. I will start writing it after I finish translating "Hyperion"!"
Lin Han didn't know much about this type of novel. He had only read the works of the more famous writers. Now he found that the movie "The Silence of the Lambs" he had watched also had a novel version. This was unexpected. To his surprise, this was not only a suspense novel, but also a classic piece of literature!
The ingenious chef makes vegetarian dishes look exactly like meat dishes. The signature dish "Tian Xia Yu" is clearly a tempting boiled fish, but it is made with beans, and the taste is even higher than that of real fish.
…
Life is like this, you have to enjoy it. Now that money is much more relaxed, don’t wrong yourself!
The ingenious chef makes vegetarian dishes look exactly like meat dishes. The signature dish "Tian Xia Yu" is clearly a tempting boiled fish, but it is made with beans, and the taste is even higher than that of real fish.
Lin Han was questioned by his girlfriend, and he would not give up this opportunity. Although the outside world said that science fiction novels are written for men, Lin Han also has a large number of female readers. He mainly writes to his girlfriend and gives them as gifts. Female reader, he has already made a decision in his heart in these few seconds.
Faced with the doubts of netizens and the uneasiness of readers, Renmin University Publishing House once again posted on Weibo: "When we saw this number, we also expressed strong doubts and even took the initiative to conduct an investigation. We were not the ones who announced the pre-sale numbers. , but to go to the State Administration of Press and Publication, who said that all the data is true and there is no falsehood, so "Hyperion" is the new pre-sale king!"
It tastes delicious and tender. This tofu fish has a black skin on the outside, just like fish skin. It tastes chewy and tough!
…
…
Another very famous dish is called "Fu Bao". On top of the specially prepared soup, there is a tinfoil lotus leaf plate floating with smooth vegetarian abalone slices. These soups stewed with a variety of wild mushrooms looked cool and transparent, and tasted even more delicious, which made Lin Han unable to help but whet his appetite.
It is also good to drink some soup to replenish the body in autumn. Now the villa where Lin Han and Chen Jiaxuan live has a nanny who specializes in cooking, otherwise Lin Han would not be able to bear cooking every day.
After listening to Yan Hong's explanation, Lin Han finally understood what the 210,000 copies meant. He touched his chin and asked: "If there are 210,000 copies on the first day, how much will the final pre-sales be?"
Now in the entire book market, the pre-sale record is held by Lin Han himself. The only one who can break the record is himself. Now he has reached an invincible state.
"I want to read the classic love novels, and I also want to understand the science fiction novels you wrote. Of the many novels you wrote, I can't really understand many of them. Even "Hyperion" can only stay On the basis of shock and emotion.”
"You do this kind of thing just for the sake of so-called records, and you will definitely turn the passers-by into evil!"
"Me too!"
"Seriously, the craftsmanship of this vegetarian restaurant you chose is really good. The vegetarian abalone slices taste very much like meat. They are very delicate."
Although there has been an obvious decline in the recent book market, sales in the tens of millions can clearly distinguish him from other authors.
No matter how she asked, Lin Han remained firm and motionless, "Don't worry, don't worry, I'll give it to you after I write the first chapter."
"Wow, congratulations to Teacher Lin. I ordered this book the day before yesterday, and I happened to have a coupon for 20% off. How lonely it is to be invincible, a man standing at the top!"
Lin Han patted her hand and said jokingly: "Sit in a bookstore and I'll buy some books so that we can fill up the bookshelves in our house."
"Me too!"
Chen Jiaxuan took a small bowl and took two sips of the hot soup. She said proudly: "Of course, my best friend revealed this to me. If we get tired of eating real meat, it's not bad to come here for vegetarian meals occasionally!"
Sure enough, it was invincible from the beginning. This strange trend has never appeared in the history of book sales, so there are many people who doubt this number!
After coming out of the hotel, Lin Han was not in a hurry to go home. It was still early, so he took Chen Jiaxuan and wandered on the street.
Since it was just a casual chat, Lin Han didn't pay too much attention. He asked: "What kind of novels do you want to read? How many can I recommend to you?"
Chen Jiaxuan is not an unreasonable person, "There are no good TV series to watch now, but tomorrow I will invite my best friends to play board games together. You have books to read, but it's a pity that I can't find any good novels."
It is also good to drink some soup to replenish the body in autumn. Now the villa where Lin Han and Chen Jiaxuan live has a nanny who specializes in cooking, otherwise Lin Han would not be able to bear cooking every day.
…
Yan Hong knew that his boss was generous, and he replied excitedly: "Thank you, boss! By the way, boss, I have just received feedback from Renmin University Publishing House on the results of the first day of pre-sale for "Hyperion" , seems to be directly invincible from the beginning!”
"I want to read the classic love novels, and I also want to understand the science fiction novels you wrote. Of the many novels you wrote, I can't really understand many of them. Even "Hyperion" can only stay On the basis of shock and emotion.”
This bookstore is very tastefully built, not as formal as Xinhua Bookstore. Although it has only one floor, it is very large, with countless stacked bookshelves. There is even a wooden staircase that looks like an ancient library. atmosphere.
Yan Hong on the other end of the phone almost collapsed. He tightened his phone and explained: "Teacher Lin, this is a lot. This broke the first-day pre-sale record! Your original book "Inception" A total of 1.18 million copies were pre-sold, and the number of pre-sales on the first day was not as many as 210,000!"
"You want to buy mystery and suspense novels?" Chen Jiaxuan couldn't help but shudder. She actually preferred novels with a literary nature, such as "Gone with the Wind" and "Wuthering Heights".
If he hadn't been indifferent to the other books, Lin Han would have wanted to buy more, but he decided to read these books first. Then he would buy them through the online bookstore and have them delivered to his door, which would be great.
Life is like this, you have to enjoy it. Now that money is much more relaxed, don’t wrong yourself!
"Okay, I know. One million is also very good! If you have any news later, please send it to me via WeChat."
Perhaps because he was used to hearing about "The Martian" buying hundreds of thousands of copies every day around the world in the past few days, Lin Han was not very surprised by the 210,000 pre-sales of "Hyperion", "Oh, that's it. I thought there were many."
Lin Han laughed softly: "How about watching movies or TV series with you? If not, I will read the books I bought."
Chen Jiaxuan was so frightened that she immediately reacted and grabbed Lin Han's waist with her hands, "You actually scared me, I almost believed it!"
Sure enough, it was invincible from the beginning. This strange trend has never appeared in the history of book sales, so there are many people who doubt this number!
After the two of them had eaten and drank enough, they took a leisurely walk on the sidewalk, just to eat and drink. After all, Chen Jiaxuan did not allow herself to get too fat.
At Lin Han's level, if he says the wrong thing, it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble. He is not willing to increase the workload on his employees, so this method is more suitable for him.
It was originally a long journey, but just talking and laughing, we actually walked back directly. As a result, Chen Jiaxuan's heels were worn out!
"How will you pass the time when you get home at night?"
"Believe me, this will definitely satisfy you. And you won't have to wait too long. You will definitely be able to see it in October!" Lin Han said confidently. In fact, the English version of "Hyperion" is already in preparation He had already taken action under the urging of Alex, the editor of Penguin Publishing Group.
Since it was just a casual chat, Lin Han didn't pay too much attention. He asked: "What kind of novels do you want to read? How many can I recommend to you?"
Chen Jiaxuan patted her forehead. In such a classic movie, the psychologist and the murderer Hannibal are always active on the screen. "I have recalled that movie scene now. You can find some normal novels to read." "

Chen Jiaxuan is not an unreasonable person, "There are no good TV series to watch now, but tomorrow I will invite my best friends to play board games together. You have books to read, but it's a pity that I can't find any good novels."
"Teacher Lin, the list of 800 lucky readers drawn today has come out. We will send it out by express tomorrow. After being screened by the lottery platform, there are actually 520,000 people who are eligible for the lottery. Drawing a prize will blow up my computer. It’s a slap on the wrist.”
"Me too!"
Since it was just a casual chat, Lin Han didn't pay too much attention. He asked: "What kind of novels do you want to read? How many can I recommend to you?"
Lin Han didn't expect that his Weibo post would have so many participants. He was in a good mood and said to his mobile phone: "Just take it out. It's time to replace your computer with a new one. I'll reimburse you for it." You can buy whatever model you want.”
The quiet time is always short. After reading more than 20 pages of Lin Han's novel, a phone call came. This was his assistant Yan Hong reporting on work!
When the lanterns came on, Lin Han stopped in his tracks and said, "If you like it, I will write you a science fiction love novel. I will start writing it after I finish translating "Hyperion"!"
The two bookshelves in the study room of the villa are a bit empty, and most of them have no books placed on them. Many of them are books that Lin Han bought before for reference when writing novels, and they are quite professional!

Lin Han was questioned by his girlfriend, and he would not give up this opportunity. Although the outside world said that science fiction novels are written for men, Lin Han also has a large number of female readers. He mainly writes to his girlfriend and gives them as gifts. Female reader, he has already made a decision in his heart in these few seconds.
"Bookstores are becoming more and more artistic now, and there are so many people coming in to take pictures." Chen Jiaxuan whispered in Lin Han's ear. She did not dare to speak loudly for fear of disturbing those who were concentrating on reading.
Chen Jiaxuan couldn't help but shudder when she thought of writing a science fiction romance novel in such a masculine style, it was so weird!
"Then I will write this time into the interview. If it is not released by then, your readers will riot collectively. I am looking forward to reading that book. Beijing is a beautiful place. I hope to see more of your excellence in the future. s work!"
"Wow, congratulations to Teacher Lin. I ordered this book the day before yesterday, and I happened to have a coupon for 20% off. How lonely it is to be invincible, a man standing at the top!"
When the lanterns came on, Lin Han stopped in his tracks and said, "If you like it, I will write you a science fiction love novel. I will start writing it after I finish translating "Hyperion"!"

For people who love books, they can never get enough of good books, especially after being reborn once, they will understand the value of knowledge even more! If Lin Han had never been so fond of science fiction novels in his previous life, then he would hardly be able to find many ways to change his predicament after his rebirth!
After finishing all this, Jamie finally said: "On behalf of readers across the United States, I would like to ask you a simple question, when will "Hyperion" be released in English? We all already know that this book conquers I have read Chinese readers, but I don’t know if it suits the taste of our American readers.”
In Lin Han's science fiction novels, this is the most criticized point. There are often some mistakes in the heroine. Either there is no heroine, or the heroine is a vase, or the heroine destroys the world, serious writing There are very few good female characters.
Faced with the doubts of netizens and the uneasiness of readers, Renmin University Publishing House once again posted on Weibo: "When we saw this number, we also expressed strong doubts and even took the initiative to conduct an investigation.

In the following time, Lin Han held in his hand books such as "Perfume", "Desolate Village Apartment", "Murder on the Orient Express", "Alice's Mirror City Murders", and "Crime in the Leaning House".
I originally thought that the pre-sale estimate of 900,000 copies was very optimistic, but the publisher actually gave me 1.58 million copies, which directly increased the original score of "Inception" by 400,000 copies!
Chen Jiaxuan couldn't help but shudder when she thought of writing a science fiction romance novel in such a masculine style, it was so weird!

If Lin Han had never been so fond of science fiction novels in his previous life, then he would hardly be able to find many ways to change his predicament after his rebirth!
"You won't know until you write the novel whether it's good or not. Don't underestimate me now. Anyone who underestimated me before will eventually be slapped in the face by himself." Lin Han said with a smile, reading more books is beneficial!
Sure enough, it was invincible from the beginning. This strange trend has never appeared in the history of book sales, so there are many people who doubt this number!
Chen Jiaxuan patted her forehead. In such a classic movie, the psychologist and the murderer Hannibal are always active on the screen. "I have recalled that movie scene now. You can find some normal novels to read." "

Lin Han also feels the same way. Such an elegant and comfortable paradise is suitable for holding a novel, ordering a cup of coffee, sitting on a chair and enjoying the whole afternoon!
Lin Han didn't expect that his Weibo post would have so many participants. He was in a good mood and said to his mobile phone: "Just take it out. It's time to replace your computer with a new one. I'll reimburse you for it." You can buy whatever model you want.”

The cover photo shoot is very simple. You only need to shoot his face, and the background behind him will be blurred out. The focus is on the person's mental outlook and eyes. This is something Lin Han is quite good at!
No matter how she asked, Lin Han remained firm and motionless, "Don't worry, don't worry, I'll give it to you after I write the first chapter."
A week later, "Hyperion" was officially released, but the numbers announced by Renmin University Press made countless people blind!
The villa area was relatively quiet, with only the occasional barking of dogs. Chen Jiaxuan was chatting with her friends on her mobile phone, playing "Who is the Undercover" online, while Lin Han was carefully reading another book he bought.

"Does Teacher Lin's novel still need to be filled with water? So many of us use tap water!"
"Then shall we have steak tonight?"
"Me too!"
For people who love books, they can never get enough of good books, especially after being reborn once, they will understand the value of knowledge even more!

"Anyway, I still hope that the publishing house can clean up the data and make sure there is no mistake. I don't want Teacher Lin to become a joke on the entire Internet."
After the two of them had eaten and drank enough, they took a leisurely walk on the sidewalk, just to eat and drink. After all, Chen Jiaxuan did not allow herself to get too fat.
Since it was just a casual chat, Lin Han didn't pay too much attention. He asked: "What kind of novels do you want to read? How many can I recommend to you?"
Chen Jiaxuan couldn't help but shudder when she thought of writing a science fiction romance novel in such a masculine style, it was so weird!
If he hadn't been indifferent to the other books, Lin Han would have wanted to buy more, but he decided to read these books first. Then he would buy them through the online bookstore and have them delivered to his door, which would be great.
The villa area was relatively quiet, with only the occasional barking of dogs. Chen Jiaxuan was chatting with her friends on her mobile phone, playing "Who is the Undercover" online, while Lin Han was carefully reading another book he bought. He was reading a book, and from time to time he looked up and glanced at Chen Jiaxuan who was playing crazy. His movements were very harmonious.
A big reason why Lin Han is willing to be interviewed is that he does not have to face so many media reporters directly and only needs to concentrate on dealing with one. Moreover, conscientious media like People magazine will not take some sentences in his words that are easily ambiguous out of context. List them separately.
The two of them shook hands, marking the end of the interview with People magazine!
Lin Han also feels the same way. Such an elegant and comfortable paradise is suitable for holding a novel, ordering a cup of coffee, sitting on a chair and enjoying the whole afternoon!
The quiet time is always short. After reading more than 20 pages of Lin Han's novel, a phone call came. This was his assistant Yan Hong reporting on work!
Since it was just a casual chat, Lin Han didn't pay too much attention. He asked: "What kind of novels do you want to read? How many can I recommend to you?"
"Believe me, this will definitely satisfy you. And you won't have to wait too long. You will definitely be able to see it in October!" Lin Han said confidently. In fact, the English version of "Hyperion" is already in preparation He had already taken action under the urging of Alex, the editor of Penguin Publishing Group.
Although there has been an obvious decline in the recent book market, sales in the tens of millions can clearly distinguish him from other authors.
"Teacher Lin, the list of 800 lucky readers drawn today has come out. We will send it out by express tomorrow. After being screened by the lottery platform, there are actually 520,000 people who are eligible for the lottery. Drawing a prize will blow up my computer. It’s a slap on the wrist.”
"Me too!"
"I admire the publishing house. Do you dare to publish such figures and fool everyone into thinking they are fools?"
If he hadn't been indifferent to the other books, Lin Han would have wanted to buy more, but he decided to read these books first. Then he would buy them through the online bookstore and have them delivered to his door, which would be great.
"Okay, I know. One million is also very good! If you have any news later, please send it to me via WeChat."
"Okay, I know. One million is also very good! If you have any news later, please send it to me via WeChat."
On the contrary, there are those novels that readers have not read. For example, the "Three-Body" series did not perform at the top in pre-sales. This may be because the word-of-mouth was fully spread when it was serialized.
Lin Han didn't expect that his Weibo post would have so many participants. He was in a good mood and said to his mobile phone: "Just take it out. It's time to replace your computer with a new one. I'll reimburse you for it." You can buy whatever model you want.”
In Lin Han's science fiction novels, this is the most criticized point. There are often some mistakes in the heroine. Either there is no heroine, or the heroine is a vase, or the heroine destroys the world, serious writing There are very few good female characters.
"I want to read the classic love novels, and I also want to understand the science fiction novels you wrote. Of the many novels you wrote, I can't really understand many of them. Even "Hyperion" can only stay On the basis of shock and emotion.”
Yan Hong knew that his boss was generous, and he replied excitedly: "Thank you, boss! By the way, boss, I have just received feedback from Renmin University Publishing House on the results of the first day of pre-sale for "Hyperion" , seems to be directly invincible from the beginning!”
Almost all of his science fiction novels have millions of copies in Chinese version and millions in English version, which together can reach tens of millions, but none of them can reach tens of millions in a single market field. .
The cover photo shoot is very simple. You only need to shoot his face, and the background behind him will be blurred out. The focus is on the person's mental outlook and eyes. This is something Lin Han is quite good at!
Chen Jiaxuan took a small bowl and took two sips of the hot soup. She said proudly: "Of course, my best friend revealed this to me. If we get tired of eating real meat, it's not bad to come here for vegetarian meals occasionally!"
"Let me tell you how much it is."
Chen Jiaxuan was so frightened that she immediately reacted and grabbed Lin Han's waist with her hands, "You actually scared me, I almost believed it!"
Chen Jiaxuan patted her forehead. In such a classic movie, the psychologist and the murderer Hannibal are always active on the screen. "I have recalled that movie scene now. You can find some normal novels to read." "
"On the first day, based on the official website of Renmin University Press and the official flagship store on the shopping website, as well as the pre-sale of Xinhua Bookstore and other bookstores, the number of pre-orders of "Hyperion" on the first day is already 210,000!"
I originally thought that the pre-sale estimate of 900,000 copies was very optimistic, but the publisher actually gave me 1.58 million copies, which directly increased the original score of "Inception" by 400,000 copies!
Sure enough, it was invincible from the beginning. This strange trend has never appeared in the history of book sales, so there are many people who doubt this number!
Although there has been an obvious decline in the recent book market, sales in the tens of millions can clearly distinguish him from other authors.
It is also good to drink some soup to replenish the body in autumn. Now the villa where Lin Han and Chen Jiaxuan live has a nanny who specializes in cooking, otherwise Lin Han would not be able to bear cooking every day.
In the book market, the only writers who can sell more than one million copies of a single science fiction novel are Lin Han and Li Wenyuan, so this pre-sale result is actually quite good.
The two of them shook hands, marking the end of the interview with People magazine!
If he hadn't been indifferent to the other books, Lin Han would have wanted to buy more, but he decided to read these books first. Then he would buy them through the online bookstore and have them delivered to his door, which would be great.
Perhaps because he was used to hearing about "The Martian" buying hundreds of thousands of copies every day around the world in the past few days, Lin Han was not very surprised by the 210,000 pre-sales of "Hyperion", "Oh, that's it. I thought there were many."
Taken together, 210,000 on the first day turned out to be the lowest pre-sales day, which is an unacceptable result for any book. 250,000 on the next day and more than 200,000 in the following days were maintained.
"I want to read the classic love novels, and I also want to understand the science fiction novels you wrote. Of the many novels you wrote, I can't really understand many of them. Even "Hyperion" can only stay On the basis of shock and emotion.”
It was originally a long journey, but just talking and laughing, we actually walked back directly. As a result, Chen Jiaxuan's heels were worn out!
"You won't know until you write the novel whether it's good or not. Don't underestimate me now. Anyone who underestimated me before will eventually be slapped in the face by himself." Lin Han said with a smile, reading more books is beneficial!
Yan Hong on the other end of the phone almost collapsed. He tightened his phone and explained: "Teacher Lin, this is a lot. This broke the first-day pre-sale record! Your original book "Inception" A total of 1.18 million copies were pre-sold, and the number of pre-sales on the first day was not as many as 210,000!"
I originally thought that the pre-sale estimate of 900,000 copies was very optimistic, but the publisher actually gave me 1.58 million copies, which directly increased the original score of "Inception" by 400,000 copies!
"We can make a horizontal comparison of "Inception". It pre-sold more than 500,000 copies in the first week, and maintained the same level in the second week, and finally reached 1.18 million pre-sales. Now the pre-sales of "Hyperion" The issue is only one week, but the sales volume is much ahead, so the final pre-sale result given by Renmin University Publishing House is 900,000-1 million copies."
Now in the entire book market, the pre-sale record is held by Lin Han himself. The only one who can break the record is himself. Now he has reached an invincible state.
"This book should be very good. The recommendation is so well written." Lin Han picked up a book. "When the lamb is quiet, do you hear the cry and whisper in the darkest place of the soul?"
In Lin Han's science fiction novels, this is the most criticized point. There are often some mistakes in the heroine. Either there is no heroine, or the heroine is a vase, or the heroine destroys the world, serious writing There are very few good female characters.
…
The funniest thing is that these two novels that successively set pre-sale records were both updated directly by him through serialization on the Internet. Obviously many people have already read it, but the pre-sales set impossible records!
It is necessary to study and accumulate properly, and only by accumulation can you make progress. Lin Han is already a little tired of science fiction novels, so he needs to change his genre to refresh his mind!
Perhaps because he was used to hearing about "The Martian" buying hundreds of thousands of copies every day around the world in the past few days, Lin Han was not very surprised by the 210,000 pre-sales of "Hyperion", "Oh, that's it. I thought there were many."
A week later, "Hyperion" was officially released, but the numbers announced by Renmin University Press made countless people blind!
"On the first day, based on the official website of Renmin University Press and the official flagship store on the shopping website, as well as the pre-sale of Xinhua Bookstore and other bookstores, the number of pre-orders of "Hyperion" on the first day is already 210,000!"
"I want to read the classic love novels, and I also want to understand the science fiction novels you wrote. Of the many novels you wrote, I can't really understand many of them. Even "Hyperion" can only stay On the basis of shock and emotion.”
This vegetarian restaurant is very popular. It is located in an ancient courtyard with three entrances. There is a 400-year-old locust tree in the courtyard, which is covered with marriage cards. The environment looks very good!
No matter how she asked, Lin Han remained firm and motionless, "Don't worry, don't worry, I'll give it to you after I write the first chapter."
When the lanterns came on, Lin Han stopped in his tracks and said, "If you like it, I will write you a science fiction love novel. I will start writing it after I finish translating "Hyperion"!"
On the contrary, there are those novels that readers have not read. For example, the "Three-Body" series did not perform at the top in pre-sales. This may be because the word-of-mouth was fully spread when it was serialized.
In the following time, Lin Han held in his hand books such as "Perfume", "Desolate Village Apartment", "Murder on the Orient Express", "Alice's Mirror City Murders", and "Crime in the Leaning House".
…
Chen Jiaxuan took a small bowl and took two sips of the hot soup. She said proudly: "Of course, my best friend revealed this to me. If we get tired of eating real meat, it's not bad to come here for vegetarian meals occasionally!"
After listening to Yan Hong's explanation, Lin Han finally understood what the 210,000 copies meant. He touched his chin and asked: "If there are 210,000 copies on the first day, how much will the final pre-sales be?"
"Then I will write this time into the interview. If it is not released by then, your readers will riot collectively. I am looking forward to reading that book. Beijing is a beautiful place. I hope to see more of your excellence in the future. s work!"
After finishing all this, Jamie finally said: "On behalf of readers across the United States, I would like to ask you a simple question, when will "Hyperion" be released in English? We all already know that this book conquers I have read Chinese readers, but I don’t know if it suits the taste of our American readers.”
Although there has been an obvious decline in the recent book market, sales in the tens of millions can clearly distinguish him from other authors.
"I contributed a volume!"
After listening to Yan Hong's explanation, Lin Han finally understood what the 210,000 copies meant. He touched his chin and asked: "If there are 210,000 copies on the first day, how much will the final pre-sales be?"
"Bookstores are becoming more and more artistic now, and there are so many people coming in to take pictures." Chen Jiaxuan whispered in Lin Han's ear. She did not dare to speak loudly for fear of disturbing those who were concentrating on reading.
"Then I will write this time into the interview. If it is not released by then, your readers will riot collectively. I am looking forward to reading that book. Beijing is a beautiful place. I hope to see more of your excellence in the future. s work!"
It can be said that Lin Han returned with a full load. Although he wanted to eat some meat, because he mentioned Hannibal before, he had to accompany Chen Jiaxuan to go to Bodhi Su to eat vegetarian food.
This bookstore is very tastefully built, not as formal as Xinhua Bookstore. Although it has only one floor, it is very large, with countless stacked bookshelves. There is even a wooden staircase that looks like an ancient library. atmosphere.
"We can make a horizontal comparison of "Inception". It pre-sold more than 500,000 copies in the first week, and maintained the same level in the second week, and finally reached 1.18 million pre-sales. Now the pre-sales of "Hyperion" The issue is only one week, but the sales volume is much ahead, so the final pre-sale result given by Renmin University Publishing House is 900,000-1 million copies."

Now the pre-sales of "Hyperion" The issue is only one week, but the sales volume is much ahead, so the final pre-sale result given by Renmin University Publishing House is 900,000-1 million copies."
Lin Han was questioned by his girlfriend, and he would not give up this opportunity. Although the outside world said that science fiction novels are written for men, Lin Han also has a large number of female readers. He mainly writes to his girlfriend and gives them as gifts. Female reader, he has already made a decision in his heart in these few seconds.
Since it was just a casual chat, Lin Han didn't pay too much attention. He asked: "What kind of novels do you want to read? How many can I recommend to you?"
The bookstore actually didn't have many things. After walking for more than ten or twenty minutes, the two of them saw the "Fangsuo" decorated like a shopping mall.
Writers who know English have this advantage. They can translate their own works without worrying about losing something after being translated by other writers.
In the book market, the only writers who can sell more than one million copies of a single science fiction novel are Lin Han and Li Wenyuan, so this pre-sale result is actually quite good.
I originally thought that the pre-sale estimate of 900,000 copies was very optimistic, but the publisher actually gave me 1.58 million copies, which directly increased the original score of "Inception" by 400,000 copies!
Chen Jiaxuan is not an unreasonable person, "There are no good TV series to watch now, but tomorrow I will invite my best friends to play board games together. You have books to read, but it's a pity that I can't find any good novels."
After the two of them had eaten and drank enough, they took a leisurely walk on the sidewalk, just to eat and drink. After all, Chen Jiaxuan did not allow herself to get too fat.
Now in the entire book market, the pre-sale record is held by Lin Han himself. The only one who can break the record is himself. Now he has reached an invincible state.
Another very famous dish is called "Fu Bao". On top of the specially prepared soup, there is a tinfoil lotus leaf plate floating with smooth vegetarian abalone slices. These soups stewed with a variety of wild mushrooms looked cool and transparent, and tasted even more delicious, which made Lin Han unable to help but whet his appetite.
Sure enough, it was invincible from the beginning. This strange trend has never appeared in the history of book sales, so there are many people who doubt this number!
"Okay, I know. One million is also very good! If you have any news later, please send it to me via WeChat."
"And I"
"And I"
"Then shall we have steak tonight?"
Lin Han shrugged his shoulders, "Of course. Maybe I will start a bilingual serialization of the next book in Chinese and English. Everything is possible. But this doesn't need to be included in the interview. You just need to know."
The two of them shook hands, marking the end of the interview with People magazine!
Lin Han is actually immune to sales. Each book sells millions and millions. What he wants to do now is to break through this bottleneck!
…
It can be said that Lin Han returned with a full load. Although he wanted to eat some meat, because he mentioned Hannibal before, he had to accompany Chen Jiaxuan to go to Bodhi Su to eat vegetarian food.

"Don't eat. Be vegetarian. Let's go to Bodhi Vegetarian Restaurant. I heard it's pretty good there." Chen Jiaxuan was not such a fragile person originally, but she was willing to put away those disguises in front of Lin Han. Who is not a little princess anymore!
"Seriously, the craftsmanship of this vegetarian restaurant you chose is really good. The vegetarian abalone slices taste very much like meat. They are very delicate."
Although there has been an obvious decline in the recent book market, sales in the tens of millions can clearly distinguish him from other authors.
I originally thought that the pre-sale estimate of 900,000 copies was very optimistic, but the publisher actually gave me 1.58 million copies, which directly increased the original score of "Inception" by 400,000 copies!
"I contributed two of the 1.58 million copies!"
After the two of them had eaten and drank enough, they took a leisurely walk on the sidewalk, just to eat and drink. After all, Chen Jiaxuan did not allow herself to get too fat.
"We can make a horizontal comparison of "Inception".

"Seriously, the craftsmanship of this vegetarian restaurant you chose is really good. The vegetarian abalone slices taste very much like meat. They are very delicate."
…
The two bookshelves in the study room of the villa are a bit empty, and most of them have no books placed on them. Many of them are books that Lin Han bought before for reference when writing novels, and they are quite professional!
If he hadn't been indifferent to the other books, Lin Han would have wanted to buy more, but he decided to read these books first. Then he would buy them through the online bookstore and have them delivered to his door, which would be great.
"Wow, congratulations to Teacher Lin. I ordered this book the day before yesterday, and I happened to have a coupon for 20% off. How lonely it is to be invincible, a man standing at the top!"
This bookstore is very tastefully built, not as formal as Xinhua Bookstore. Although it has only one floor, it is very large, with countless stacked bookshelves. There is even a wooden staircase that looks like an ancient library. atmosphere.
He raised his head and looked carefully at the book navigation above, then led Chen Jiaxuan towards the covered bridge in front. The book he wanted to buy was in front.
A week later, "Hyperion" was officially released, but the numbers announced by Renmin University Press made countless people blind!
The cover photo shoot is very simple. You only need to shoot his face, and the background behind him will be blurred out. The focus is on the person's mental outlook and eyes. This is something Lin Han is quite good at!
"Teacher Lin, the list of 800 lucky readers drawn today has come out. We will send it out by express tomorrow. After being screened by the lottery platform, there are actually 520,000 people who are eligible for the lottery. Drawing a prize will blow up my computer. It’s a slap on the wrist.”
After the two of them had eaten and drank enough, they took a leisurely walk on the sidewalk, just to eat and drink. After all, Chen Jiaxuan did not allow herself to get too fat.

The quiet time is always short. After reading more than 20 pages of Lin Han's novel, a phone call came. This was his assistant Yan Hong reporting on work!
Lin Han also feels the same way. Such an elegant and comfortable paradise is suitable for holding a novel, ordering a cup of coffee, sitting on a chair and enjoying the whole afternoon!
Faced with the doubts of netizens and the uneasiness of readers, Renmin University Publishing House once again posted on Weibo: "When we saw this number, we also expressed strong doubts and even took the initiative to conduct an investigation. We were not the ones who announced the pre-sale numbers. , but to go to the State Administration of Press and Publication, who said that all the data is true and there is no falsehood, so "Hyperion" is the new pre-sale king!"
It is also good to drink some soup to replenish the body in autumn. Now the villa where Lin Han and Chen Jiaxuan live has a nanny who specializes in cooking, otherwise Lin Han would not be able to bear cooking every day.
"You won't know until you write the novel whether it's good or not. Don't underestimate me now. Anyone who underestimated me before will eventually be slapped in the face by himself." Lin Han said with a smile, reading more books is beneficial!

After coming out of the hotel, Lin Han was not in a hurry to go home. It was still early, so he took Chen Jiaxuan and wandered on the street.
"Let me go, the sales figures have revealed the truth, so you know it's fake. You're bragging and you don't draft it. Now it's a joke!"
"On the first day, based on the official website of Renmin University Press and the official flagship store on the shopping website, as well as the pre-sale of Xinhua Bookstore and other bookstores, the number of pre-orders of "Hyperion" on the first day is already 210,000!"
The quiet time is always short. After reading more than 20 pages of Lin Han's novel, a phone call came. This was his assistant Yan Hong reporting on work!
"You do this kind of thing just for the sake of so-called records, and you will definitely turn the passers-by into evil!"
…
"What kind of sales king? He is obviously the water injection king!"
Yan Hong knew that his boss was generous, and he replied excitedly: "Thank you, boss! By the way, boss, I have just received feedback from Renmin University Publishing House on the results of the first day of pre-sale for "Hyperion" , seems to be directly invincible from the beginning!”
Perhaps because he was used to hearing about "The Martian" buying hundreds of thousands of copies every day around the world in the past few days, Lin Han was not very surprised by the 210,000 pre-sales of "Hyperion", "Oh, that's it. I thought there were many."

"You do this kind of thing just for the sake of so-called records, and you will definitely turn the passers-by into evil!"
It tastes delicious and tender. This tofu fish has a black skin on the outside, just like fish skin. It tastes chewy and tough!
"Okay, I know. One million is also very good! If you have any news later, please send it to me via WeChat."
After the two of them had eaten and drank enough, they took a leisurely walk on the sidewalk, just to eat and drink. After all, Chen Jiaxuan did not allow herself to get too fat.
"Wow, congratulations to Teacher Lin. I ordered this book the day before yesterday, and I happened to have a coupon for 20% off. How lonely it is to be invincible, a man standing at the top!"
"And I"
Lin Han didn't know much about this type of novel. He had only read the works of the more famous writers. Now he found that the movie "The Silence of the Lambs" he had watched also had a novel version. This was unexpected. To his surprise, this was not only a suspense novel, but also a classic piece of literature!
Writers who know English have this advantage. They can translate their own works without worrying about losing something after being translated by other writers.

"Does Teacher Lin's novel still need to be filled with water? So many of us use tap water!"
Science fiction novels must also keep pace with the times and cannot be based on random imagination, but now Lin Han decided to give his brain a holiday and buy some books by other writers.
Almost all of his science fiction novels have millions of copies in Chinese version and millions in English version, which together can reach tens of millions, but none of them can reach tens of millions in a single market field. .
The thick stack of books made the cashier want to call the police. Is it really okay to buy so many books of this type in one go
"Anyway, I still hope that the publishing house can clean up the data and make sure there is no mistake. I don't want Teacher Lin to become a joke on the entire Internet."
After listening to Yan Hong's explanation, Lin Han finally understood what the 210,000 copies meant. He touched his chin and asked: "If there are 210,000 copies on the first day, how much will the final pre-sales be?"
Chen Jiaxuan patted her forehead. In such a classic movie, the psychologist and the murderer Hannibal are always active on the screen. "I have recalled that movie scene now. You can find some normal novels to read." "
"I admire the publishing house. Do you dare to publish such figures and fool everyone into thinking they are fools?"
It was originally a long journey, but just talking and laughing, we actually walked back directly. As a result, Chen Jiaxuan's heels were worn out!
When the lanterns came on, Lin Han stopped in his tracks and said, "If you like it, I will write you a science fiction love novel. I will start writing it after I finish translating "Hyperion"!"
"On the first day, based on the official website of Renmin University Press and the official flagship store on the shopping website, as well as the pre-sale of Xinhua Bookstore and other bookstores, the number of pre-orders of "Hyperion" on the first day is already 210,000!"
"I contributed two of the 1.58 million copies!"
When the lanterns came on, Lin Han stopped in his tracks and said, "If you like it, I will write you a science fiction love novel. I will start writing it after I finish translating "Hyperion"!"
…
"Does Teacher Lin's novel still need to be filled with water? So many of us use tap water!"
Chen Jiaxuan thought it was just a joke at first, but she didn't expect Lin Han to take it seriously. Her curiosity was constantly raised: "What? Tell me what type it is. Don't let the heroine fall in love with a zombie. Could it be?" An interstellar romance?”
"I contributed a volume!"
"Believe me, this will definitely satisfy you. And you won't have to wait too long. You will definitely be able to see it in October!" Lin Han said confidently. In fact, the English version of "Hyperion" is already in preparation He had already taken action under the urging of Alex, the editor of Penguin Publishing Group.
…
If he hadn't been indifferent to the other books, Lin Han would have wanted to buy more, but he decided to read these books first. Then he would buy them through the online bookstore and have them delivered to his door, which would be great.
"I contributed a volume!"
Lin Han laughed softly: "How about watching movies or TV series with you? If not, I will read the books I bought."
The two of them shook hands, marking the end of the interview with People magazine!
"We can make a horizontal comparison of "Inception". It pre-sold more than 500,000 copies in the first week, and maintained the same level in the second week, and finally reached 1.18 million pre-sales. Now the pre-sales of "Hyperion" The issue is only one week, but the sales volume is much ahead, so the final pre-sale result given by Renmin University Publishing House is 900,000-1 million copies."
Writers who know English have this advantage. They can translate their own works without worrying about losing something after being translated by other writers.
Although there has been an obvious decline in the recent book market, sales in the tens of millions can clearly distinguish him from other authors.
When the lanterns came on, Lin Han stopped in his tracks and said, "If you like it, I will write you a science fiction love novel. I will start writing it after I finish translating "Hyperion"!"
Lin Han is actually immune to sales. Each book sells millions and millions. What he wants to do now is to break through this bottleneck!
"And I"

"Anyway, I still hope that the publishing house can clean up the data and make sure there is no mistake. I don't want Teacher Lin to become a joke on the entire Internet."
"And I"
"Me too!"
Chen Jiaxuan couldn't help but shudder when she thought of writing a science fiction romance novel in such a masculine style, it was so weird!
Lin Han grinned, showing his neat white teeth, "Don't worry, I won't eat you."
"Seriously, the craftsmanship of this vegetarian restaurant you chose is really good. The vegetarian abalone slices taste very much like meat. They are very delicate."
It is necessary to study and accumulate properly, and only by accumulation can you make progress. Lin Han is already a little tired of science fiction novels, so he needs to change his genre to refresh his mind!
Perhaps because he was used to hearing about "The Martian" buying hundreds of thousands of copies every day around the world in the past few days, Lin Han was not very surprised by the 210,000 pre-sales of "Hyperion", "Oh, that's it. I thought there were many."
Faced with the doubts of netizens and the uneasiness of readers, Renmin University Publishing House once again posted on Weibo: "When we saw this number, we also expressed strong doubts and even took the initiative to conduct an investigation. We were not the ones who announced the pre-sale numbers. , but to go to the State Administration of Press and Publication, who said that all the data is true and there is no falsehood, so "Hyperion" is the new pre-sale king!"

After coming out of the hotel, Lin Han was not in a hurry to go home. It was still early, so he took Chen Jiaxuan and wandered on the street.
