Chapter 527 Foreign and Domestic

"What should I do if the system forces me to copy books ()" Find the latest chapter!

"Random House held a signing ceremony, and the protagonist turned out to be the author of Huaguo! "

"Shock! ! ! Chinese writers are on the world stage! "

"You must read the growth history of Chinese writers. "

"Li Chungang, a well-known young writer in Huaguo, will sign a contract with Random House, and may become the first domestic writer!" "

"..."

Random House had just formally finalized the cooperation contract with Li Chungang, and agreed to hold a signing ceremony facing the world in two days. Immediately afterwards, Caitlin's employees began to fall into an extremely busy state.

Some people are responsible for inviting media reporters who have a good relationship with Random House.

Media reporters are one of the "mouthpieces" for disseminating information to the outside world. Random House naturally has a group of cooperation partners that they think they have made good friends with. Generally, first-hand information, internal confidential information, etc. are also given priority to disclose to these media. Reporters reciprocated accordingly, and they also knew what to do about the signing ceremony held by Random House.

As a matter of fact, the Chinese version of "The Lord of the Rings" was published as early as when it was handed over to Thompson. In addition, Huaguo has gradually become the world's largest economy. Huaguo has great influence, so Caitlin is planning to use Huaguo as one of the main battlefields for this turnaround.

There were also quite a few journalists from Chinese media invited, and when the other party heard that the signing target was actually a writer from their own country, of course they readily accepted it.

Although the signing ceremony will not be officially held until tomorrow, those who have already received the news can still sit still, and each of them quickly moved after hearing the news. Those who are related ask their relationship to inquire about the news. It doesn’t matter if there is no relationship, at least there are A pair of diligent "Eleventh Road" legs, took the photographer and drove in a small group to the headquarter of Random House.

If you want to gain a foothold in the media reporter industry, if you have a deep enough network, someone will always be able to reveal valuable first-hand news to you; or if you have enough background connections, can you report valuable news? It doesn’t matter if there is any news, there are people behind it anyway; if you don’t have both, you will know that you are like a hardworking scalper, fighting on the front line yourself, which is the so-called hard work can make up for one’s weakness.

The infighting between the three presidents of Random House has long been no news in the American press, but after Keppel Ron's "backstab" was upright, both the level of fighting and the level of stimulation have improved. It's just a few grades.

As the world's number one commercial publishing house, its every move is as famous as its own halo, and now it is holding a global signing ceremony with such great fanfare!

You must know that holding a global signing ceremony means that the signed work is a "masterpiece" that is bound to be published and sold globally. Under normal circumstances, when cooperating with ordinary authors, it will be published in the United States first. If the sales performance is good enough, then it will be a step forward. Step by step to spread to other regions and countries around the world, such an example of direct global simultaneous publishing, publishing and sales in one step...

Very few!

Simultaneous global publishing and sales also means a huge investment of resources. Once the work is not bought by readers around the world, even Random House will face a huge blood loss.

Because of this, colleagues are very surprised that a global signing ceremony of the same scale has already been held a few months ago? I still remember that time the protagonist was the new book "Lost in Time and Space" by Keppel Ron, a world-renowned mystery novelist.

Seeing that it has been less than two months since Keppel Ron's new book "The Lost City of Time and Space" is released worldwide, why is it suddenly going to be held again, and this time the protagonist is actually a person from Huaguo? young writer.

Foreigners can't understand Random House's mysterious operation, and domestic people can't understand it even more, but this does not prevent domestic netizens... from feeling honored after hearing the news!

To know in memory:

The last time there was news that the works of Chinese writers would be published overseas was three or five years ago.

And if memory does not make a mistake, it was just a joint publication with a second-tier publishing house in England at that time, and the country and region were limited to English-speaking regions.

As for Curiosity Publishing Sales Results...

The majority of netizens who have heard about this news are also very curious, but from the overwhelming publicity on the Internet to the sudden disappearance at the end, the result must be self-evident, but the results are too "gratifying" Under such circumstances, the author is too embarrassed to resort to a trick to escape the shell and fake death.

Domestic literary circles talk about whether it is big or small, but people outside the industry rarely have access to some core news in the industry.

In fact, Huaguo publishes quite a few writers’ works overseas each year, but most of them have a secretive idea of ​​“knowing their own affairs”, and of course how many of them just keep silent and become a blockbuster. I don't know what the idea is, but there must be, and there are quite a few.

It's a pity that most of these writers have completed the first half of the sentence "If you don't make a song, you will be done", and before you can complete the second half of the sentence "Blockbuster", they are completely smashed.

Over time, I have formed a habit of thinking that once domestic works are published overseas, symptoms of acclimatization will appear.

Even with the launch of the international station of Longteng Chinese.com, a large amount of online literature began to shine abroad, but it has not been reversed in a short period of time. It is conceivable how deep-rooted this cognition is, and most people are not interested in online literature. Lacking a greater recognition, it is believed that online literature lacks a kind of "rigor", and the scope of dissemination is also very limited, and there are countless things to do.

But the news that can be sent back to China from abroad is completely different.

Because not only the partner of the cooperation is Penguin Random House, which is familiar even in China, but also the signing ceremony is the one with the highest rules. It is hard to believe that this time the work will still encounter Waterloo like in the past.

Just as the world has been suffering for a long time, domestic readers also look forward to the works of domestic writers becoming famous overseas for a long time!

On this day, whether it is the traditional domestic news media or the new media on the Internet, the content without exception is reporting the news that Random House will hold a global signing ceremony. The only thing that makes domestic netizens feel sorry is——

None of these reports revealed which writer in China is the protagonist who can be said to have caused a global sensation this time.

"It should be Han Bing, a representative writer of youth literature, right?"

"Bullshit, can foreigners' youth be the same as ours? I don't see accidents as promises."

"On the contrary, I think Lao Guo is more likely!"

"Everyone is talking nonsense, it's obviously our teacher Bing Xin."

For a time, there was a heated discussion on the domestic Internet to guess who the protagonist is, and many authors were posted by enthusiastic netizens, looking forward to confirming their conjectures.

But what they never expected is that...
